Summary:PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To surely set a disk case at a home position by providing a tray which a disk is mounted on and carries it to a reproduction position with a positioning pin engaged with the positioning hole of the disk case. SOLUTION: A loading tray 1 is moved to a loading position by such a manner that a guide groove 1b is guided by a rail and to a position projecting from a housing by a driving mechanism. When the tray 1 is located at the position projecting from the housing a disk case 2 storing a disk 3 is mounted on another loading case. Here, the tray 1 is provided with position pins 1a, 1a at positions corresponding to positioning holes 2a, 2a of a disk case 2. The other loading tray is also provided with a recessed part positioning a bare disk such as a CD disk and a CD-ROM disk. Thus, the position of the disk is never shifted when the disk is mounted.
