Abstract

A separable compact disc player with an elastic hold-down member consists of a cabinet, a base and a dust cover. The improvement of the present invention is that a hold-down member which is beneath one side of the base includes a hold-down block disposed at the external end of the hold-down member, a rod protruding out of an elliptical slot of the base and a blind hole disposed in the internal end of the hold-down member. The blind hole is capable of being inserted and pushed by one end of a spring member whose the other end is fastened on an under wall of the base. Under the elasticity of the spring member, the hold-down member is capable of easily protruding into or being withdrawn from a longitudinally contoured through hole of the cabinet so as to assemble or disassemble the base and the cabinet rapidly.
