Abstract

A disk label positioning structure includes a base and an elastic element. The base has a receiving space adapted for supporting a disk. The receiving space is centrally provided with a post adapted for positioning a through hole of the disk. The elastic element is provided in the receiving space in a position located at an outer edge of the post and having a size adapted to position a through hole of a label and a height smaller than that of the post. The through hole of the label may be fitted over and positioned at an outer periphery of the elastic element. The label is disposed in the receiving space with an adhering face thereof facing up. The disk is fitted over and positioned at the outer edge of the post with a face to be adhered to the label facing down. The disk is pushed downwardly by a uniform application of force to force the elastic element to displace downwardly to allow the face of the disk to be precisely adhered to the adhering face of the label.
