发明名称 Cartridge retention mechanism for a removable cartridge drive
摘要 <p>An apparatus for retaining a cartridge in a removable media disk drive during drive operation is disclosed. The apparatus has a protuberance at a distal end of a flexible arm. When a cartridge is pushed into the drive, it engages the protuberance and flexes it along the edge of the cartridge. The protuberance flexes back when it engages a cut-out in the side of the cartridge. An opening in a side wall of the disk drive chassis allows the flexible arm to flex out when the cartridge engages it. The flexible arm is attached to a sliding lever. As the cartridge is inserted further into the drive, the flexible arm moves past the opening and thereby locks the cartridge into the drive. &lt;IMAGE&gt;</p>
