In order to alleviate the contact pressure on a contact portion between both surfaces of a disc D and felts 25 in disc ejection, an upper end and a lower end of a slot 3a on the backside of a front bezel 3 are formed with an upper recess 27 and a lower recess 28 that receive the pushed-over upper and lower felts 25. Also, the pushed-over felts 25 are received in the upper recess 27 and the lower recess 28, so that the contact pressure on the contact portion between both surfaces of the disc D and the felts 25 can be decreased.
