FR2877132A1 - Disk e.g. audio compact disk, storage case, has square or rectangular flanges with equal sizes and that have sides corresponding to diameter of disk, where flanges are connected by folding line - Google Patents

Abstract

The case has square or rectangular flanges (1, 2) with equal sizes and that have sides corresponding to a diameter of a disk e.g. compact audio disk. The flanges are connected by a folding line comprising folding lines (3, 3`, 12). The flange (2) is extended along parallel tabs (4, 4`) folded along folding lines (5, 5`). The tabs are glued along the length of the flange (1), so that the flanges are glued together.

Description

2877132 i

  Box for disk conditioning and slice extraction.

  The present invention relates to the field of conditioning discs, in particular compact audio discs (CDs) or video discs (DVDs), or computer discs (CD ROMs).

  Known in the state of the art plastic housings formed of two foldable parts, one having a hub for clipping the disc. Also known cases include cardboard, in which the discs are slipped.

  The object of the invention is to provide a new type of packaging for taking the disk directly by the slice, and in particular to ensure its automatic extraction during the pressure exerted by the user on the mobile part.

  To this end, the invention relates, in its most general sense, to an element for conditioning a disc formed by folding two square or rectangular flanks characterized in that one of the two flanks is extended on either side. two foldable rectangular legs (4, 4 '). Two symmetrical cuts at the median axis connected by five fold lines forming four squares or rectangles of the same size.

  The invention will be better understood on reading the description which follows, relating to nonlimiting exemplary embodiments, with reference to the appended drawings in which: FIG. 1 represents a perspective view of a box or cases according to a particular variant of FIG. the invention; Figure 2 shows the cutting and pre-forming plane for the box or cases.

  - Figures 3 and 4 show views of the display at different stages of use.

  Figures 1 and 2 show an embodiment of a case formed of two elements (1, 2) symmetrical with respect to three fold lines (3, 3 ', 12). The size of the base corresponds substantially to the diameter of the disc. Each insert has a square zone in which there is a cutout (15, 15 ', 16, 16') symmetrical to the median axis of the two aforementioned elements, folding lines (10, 11, 12, 13, 14) forming squares or rectangles (6, 7, 8, 9) of the same size. The element (2) is extended by two foldable rectangular tabs (4, 4 ') by the folding lines (5, 5'). The two foldable legs (4, 4 ') are glued along their entire length on the element (1) and the two sides (1,2) are glued together.

  In the normal position, the whole forms a flat case inside which is slipped a disc.

  The disc comes into contact with the fold lines (5, 5 ', 3, 3', 12).

  When the user exerts pressure on the fold line (12), the action tends to fold the squares or rectangles (6, 7, 8, 9) by means of the folding lines (10, 11, 13, 14) so that the surfaces of the squares (6,7) come in contact with each other as well as your surfaces (8,9). The disc is pushed by the fold line (12). The disc is thus driven towards the opening located on the opposite edge.

  The ejection continues until the fold line (12) comes into contact with the fold lines (10, 14).

  The disc has a surface greater than its half offering easy grip by the edge. The surfaces (6, 7, 8, 9) can be folded manually or automatically when they are rested on a flat surface or during the reintroduction of the disc.

Claims (3)

-3-CLAIM   1) Box for taking by the edge of a disk having two square or rectangular sides (1,2) of equal size whose side substantially corresponds to the diameter of the disk, the flanks (1,2) are connected by a line of folding comprising three parts (3,3 ', 12), said portion (2) is extended on either side of two parallel rectangular folding legs (4,4') by the fold lines (5,5 ') .   2) Box according to claim 1 characterized in that it comprises a deformable means formed by two cuts symmetrical to the median axis of the flanks (1, 2) of length greater than half of each flank, connected by five lines of folding (10,11,12,13,14) forming four squares or rectangles of the same size, the squares or rectangles being movable between a folding and unfolding position or the assembly has the general shape of a square or of a rectangle when it contains a disc or when it is on a flat surface.   3) Box according to any one of the preceding claims characterized in that the fold line connecting the flanks (1,2) is cut in two points is present three paries (3,3 ', 12) said portion (12). ) being movable with the fold lines (10,11,13,14).
