A disk loading/ejection mechanism in a disk device inserting and taking
out a disk-shaped storage medium (disk D) through an opening and enabling
a combined relatively large space to be secured inside the disk device,
provided with an offset drive function unit for shifting the
loading/ejection direction when inserting and taking out the disk D to a
loading/ejection direction (B) offset from the straight direction (A)
perpendicularly intersecting the opening direction of the opening.
