A mounting member is mounted on the back side of the front member. The shielding member has a slit for inserting the recording medium,
It is fixed to the mounting member.

Therefore, the front member does not need a structure for fixing the shielding member, and other components such as a display device can be integrated and attached near the insertion opening. That is, the dead space can be sufficiently reduced, which leads to downsizing of the device.

Embodiment FIG. 1 is a sectional view showing a simplified construction of an insertion opening structure which is an embodiment of the present invention, and FIG. 2 is a perspective view. Note that FIG. 1 corresponds to a cross-sectional view taken along the section line II of FIG.

In the front plate 12 constituting the casing of the disc reproducing device for reproducing the compact disc, for example, at the upper side, the compact disc is inserted into the reproducing device.
The ejecting slot structure is configured as described later. First, on the upper side of the front plate 12, a compact disk made of a material such as ABS resin is inserted into the reproducing device.
An insertion port 13 is formed for passing therethrough for ejection. In this embodiment, on the back side of the front plate 12, for example,
A mounting member 14 made of a material such as ABS resin is mounted. An opening 15 through which the compact disc passes is formed at a position of the mounting member 14 facing the insertion opening 13.

A shielding member 16 for shielding the inner structure of the reproducing apparatus from the outside is closely fixed to the mounting member 14 by, for example, a double-sided tape. The shielding member 16 is made of a material such as cloth or rubber, and has a slit 17 that allows the compact disc to pass therethrough. Further, in this embodiment, in order to secure the fixing of the shielding member 16, the holding plate 19 formed of a polycarbonate sheet or the like and having the opening 18 is formed by a double-sided tape or the like, and It is closely fixed to the surface side not facing the mounting member 14. In this way, the shielding member 16 includes the mounting member 14 and the holding plate 19.
The structure is sandwiched between and.

Below the insertion opening 13 of the front plate 12, an opening 20 through which operation members such as switches and a display device such as a liquid crystal display device are exposed.
Are formed in plural. Parts such as a display device facing the opening 20 are attached to the attachment member 14. A liquid crystal display element 21, which is, for example, a display device, is held by a holding member 22 and fixed to the mounting member 14. Further, the light guide plate 23 and the reflection plate 24 for guiding light by the liquid crystal display element 21 are mounted between the mounting member 14 and the substrate 25 provided on the rear side of the mounting member 14 as shown in FIG. Fixed.

In this way, the shielding member 16 and the liquid crystal display device 21 are attached to the mounting member 14.
After the above-mentioned components are attached, the attachment member 14 is fixed to the front plate 12. In this embodiment, the fixing is the mounting member 14

Referring to FIG. 1, when the mounting member 14 is mounted to the front plate 12, that is, when the locking claw 26 is locked by the locking hole 28, the mounting member 14 along the side wall 27 of the front plate 12 is fixed. The front plate side end portion 30 of the end surface 29 abuts on the protruding piece 31 formed on the rear side of the front plate 12, and the displacement of the mounting member 14 is prevented. When the attachment member 14 is attached to the front plate 12 in this manner, the rear end 32 of the insertion opening 13 of the front plate 12 presses the shielding member 16 and the holding plate 19 toward the attachment member 14 to ensure the shielding member. 16 is fixed. If the shield member 16 is firmly attached to the attachment member 14, the pressing force may not be applied from the rear end 32 of the insertion opening 13. Although the present embodiment has been described in relation to the structure including the holding plate 19 in the insertion port structure, the holding plate may not be provided when the shield member is securely fixed.

In the insertion port structure of this embodiment in which the secure fixing of the shielding member is realized in this manner, a projection for fixing the shielding member is not required at the peripheral portion of the insertion port 13 as in the conventional case.
Therefore, the display device such as the liquid crystal display element 21 attached to the lower side of the insertion opening 13 can be arranged as close to the insertion opening 13 as possible. That is, as shown in FIG. 1, the gap l3 between the insertion opening 13 and the liquid crystal display element 21 is
Can be sufficiently shortened, and the dead space can be reduced. Furthermore, this leads to downsizing of the device.

In the present embodiment, the attachment of the attachment member 14 to the front plate 12 is realized by the combination of the locking claw and the locking hole, but this is not limited, and for example, a screw It may be fixed by such means.

As described above, according to the present embodiment, in the front plate of the compact disc reproducing device or the like, no extra structure for attaching the shielding member is required on the lower side of the insertion opening for inserting the compact disc into the reproducing device. Therefore, the display device such as the liquid crystal display element provided on the lower side can be arranged as close to the insertion opening as possible. That is, the dead space on the lower side of the insertion port can be reduced, and the integration of parts and the downsizing of the device can be improved.
