A disk cartridge is provided which houses an optical disk rotatably. It
includes a cartridge body having formed therein a head opening through
which a part of the optical disk is exposed to outside, and a shutter
member supported movably on the cartridge body to uncover and cover the
head opening. A first concavity is formed on a side of the cartridge body
over which the shutter member slides and in a region opposite to a region
where the shutter member is moved, across the head opening, a bent
portion is formed along one lateral side of the shutter member to close a
gap resulted between the shutter member and first concavity when the
shutter member has been moved to a position to cover the head opening,
and a second concavity deeper than the first concavity is formed at a
part of the first concavity, adjacent to the head opening.
