A disk cartridge, which is compact, which requires a small number of parts, and
which is easily assembled, is provided. The disk cartridge of the present invention
comprises an upper case and a lower case. Each of the upper case and the lower
case is formed to be substantially circular. The upper case and the lower case
define a disk-accommodating section when the lower case and the lower case overlap
with each other. The disk cartridge is opened/closed by rotating the upper case
relative to the lower case about a base point of a movable section which is provided
for the upper case and/or the lower case. An information-recording disk is accommodated
and removed in a state in which the disk cartridge is open. The disk cartridge
further comprises an engaging section for engaging the upper case and the lower
case with each other and an opening for exposing a central portion and an information-recording
surface of the information-recording disk, the opening being formed at least on
surfaces of the upper case and the lower case.
