The instant disclosure relates to an optical disc drive, which includes a tray, a front cover fixed to the tray, and an eject key. The tray has a control surface facing the ejecting direction and an ejection switch disposed thereon. The front cover has a base portion and a switch opening formed thereon. The eject key has a control portion, an abutting portion connected to the control portion, and at least one elastic member. The control portion is slidably disposed on the outer surface of the front cover toward a first direction diagonal to the ejecting direction. The elastic member is disposed in between the control portion and the front cover. The control portion can be displaced toward the first direction in causing the abutting portion to generate a horizontal displacement parallel to the ejecting direction toward the ejection switch. The instant disclosure also describes an ejection mechanism.
