DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a storage case for storing a disk cleaning set.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Generally, a disk cartridge in which a disk is housed in a cartridge is widely known. In this disk cartridge, it is necessary to periodically clean the disk in order to prevent reading errors due to contamination of the disk.

In order to clean the disk, the shutter is opened against the urging force, and the surface of the disk is wiped from the opening of the cartridge with a cloth or the like.
At this time, since the opening area is small, the operator carries out the wiping operation while gradually etching the disk.

[0004]

However, in the above-described cleaning operation, the operator must keep the shutter open against the urging force at all times during the operation, which is troublesome. There is a problem that there is. Also, cleaning cloths used for such cleaning work,
Since the cleaning liquid bottles and the like are stored separately, there is a problem that the tool cannot be taken out immediately.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention has been made in view of the above-mentioned problems, and provides a disk cleaning set capable of easily performing disk cleaning and storing and carrying a disk cleaning tool. It is intended to provide a storage case.

[0006]

According to the present invention, there is provided a disk cleaning set for cleaning a disk housed in a disk cartridge having an opening for exposing the disk and a shutter capable of opening and closing the opening. A cleaning tool storage section (1b) for storing a cleaning tool, a cleaning section for opening and closing the cleaning tool storage section, and storing the disc cartridge when cleaning the disc with the cleaning tool. (1
a), wherein the cleaning unit (1a) has a non-movable shutter stopper (which can lock the shutter and hold the shutter open when the disc cartridge is stored in the cleaning unit). 1d) is provided.

[0007]

When the disk is to be cleaned, the cleaning section is detached from the cleaning tool storage section, and the cleaning tool is taken out of the cleaning tool storage section.
The disk cartridge is stored in the cleaning unit with the shutter opened and closed. Then, the disk in the cartridge is sucked by a disk rotating knob, which is a cleaning tool, and the surface of the disk is wiped off with a cleaning cloth while rotating.

When the cleaning tool is stored, the cleaning tool can be stored in the cleaning tool storage section by closing the cleaning tool storage section with the cleaning section.

[0009]

An embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. FIG. 1 is a perspective view of a disk cleaning set storage case according to the present invention. Symbol 1 in the figure
Is a case main body. The case main body 1 includes a cleaning section 1a for cleaning a disk, and a cleaning tool storage section 1b for storing a cleaning tool.
And The cleaning section 1a and the cleaning tool storage section 1b are connected by a side plate section 1c. In addition, a shutter stopper 1d is formed in the cleaning section 1a to hold the shutter in an open state when the shutter of the cartridge is opened. Further, a set plate 2 for positioning the disk rotary knob during cleaning.
A set plate positioning portion 1e for mounting and positioning (see FIG. 2) is formed. Further, the set plate 2, the cleaning cloth 3 for wiping the disk, the disk rotating knob 4 for sucking the disk, and the cleaning liquid bottle 5 are stored in the cleaning tool storage section 1b.

When the disk is to be cleaned by using the disk cleaning set storage case configured as described above, the cartridge 6 is stored in the cleaning section 1a with the shutter 7 of the cartridge 6 opened. At this time,
By locking a slider (not shown) to which the shutter 7 is fixed to the shutter stopper 1d, the shutter 7 is held in an open state. The set plate 2 is set on the set plate positioning portion 1e, and the disk rotary knob 4 is fitted into a center hole 2a formed in the set plate 2, and the hub 8a of the disk 8 in the cartridge 6 is sucked. Then, while rotating the disk rotating knob 4, dirt on the disk is wiped with the cleaning cloth 3 from the opening 6 a of the cartridge 6.
Thus, disk cleaning can be performed.

When a disk cleaning tool is stored, a set plate 2, a cleaning cloth 3, a disk rotating knob 4, and a cleaning liquid bottle 5 are stored in the cleaning tool storage section 1b. Then, the cleaning unit 1a is swung in the direction of the arrow in FIG. 1 to close the cleaning tool storage unit 1b (FIG. 3).
In this state, transportation and the like can be easily performed.

FIGS. 4 and 5 are perspective views of a disk cleaning set storage case according to a second embodiment of the present invention. This embodiment is different from the first embodiment in that the set plate 2 is stored in the cleaning storage section 1b, whereas the set plate 2 is stored in the cleaning section 1a.

FIGS. 6 and 7 are perspective views of a disk cleaning set storage case according to a third embodiment of the present invention. In this embodiment, the set plate 2 of the first and second embodiments has a structure detachable from the case main body 1, but has a structure in which the set plate 2 is integrally incorporated. That is, pins 11a, 11a protrude from the plate 11 and are pivotally attached to an elongated hole 1f formed in the cleaning section 1a. Thus, the set plate 11 can move up and down and rotate along the elongated hole 1f.

FIGS. 8 and 9 are perspective views of a disk cleaning set storage case according to a fourth embodiment of the present invention. The cleaning unit 1a according to the first or second embodiment described above.
In the present embodiment, the set plate 2 is formed so as to be positioned and set in the set plate positioning portion 1e formed in the cartridge 6. In this embodiment, however, the set plate is formed in the positioning grooves 6b for the drive device formed in the cartridge 6. 2
The projections 2b, 2b are engaged with each other.

FIG. 10 is a sectional view of an upper shell capable of performing disk cleaning. In the figure, reference numeral 51 denotes an upper shell.
A center rib 51a is formed at the center of the center rib. Then, the tip of the needle portion 52a of the disk rotation knob 52 is brought into contact with the center rib 51a. The hub 52a of the disk 53 is attached to the magnet 52b of the disk rotary knob 52.
Is adsorbed. Thus, the disk 53 can be cleaned by rotating the disk rotation knob 52.

[0016]

According to the present invention having the above-described structure, it is possible to easily store and carry a disk cleaning tool.
