When the floppy disk 3 is stored in the disk storage notch 11, the folded piece 19 is hard to return to its original state. Therefore, in a state where the FD book is displayed at the store, The floppy disk 3 cannot be easily taken out of the disk housing 1, so that the disk can be prevented from being stolen or a computer virus being mixed.

As shown in FIG. 2, if the permission seal 31 is stuck over the floppy disk 3 and the edge of the disk insertion window 17, it is visually confirmed whether or not the permission seal 31 has been peeled off. Thus, it can be determined whether or not the floppy disk 3 has been removed.

In the embodiment, the positioning of the floppy disk 3 in the vertical direction is determined by the lower edge 3 of the floppy disk 3.
A has been described by contacting the lower edge 11A of the disk storage notch 11 with the lower edge 11A and the upper edge 3B of the floppy disk 3 with the bent piece 19; The bending may be performed by providing a bent piece 19 and contacting both the lower edge 3A and the upper edge 3B of the floppy disk 3 with the bent piece 19, respectively. Further, the number of medium thick papers 9 is not limited to one, but is optional.
The first outer cardboard 5 and the second outer cardboard 7 may be any cardboard paper or the like. Further, in the embodiment, the bent piece 19 is arranged above the disc housing notch 11, but the present invention is not limited to this, and the bent piece 19 may be arranged leftward or rightward. In this case, the slit 13 and the narrow width portion 15 in FIG. 3 are arranged above or below the disc accommodating portion 11, and other main components are the same as those of the embodiment. Furthermore,

FIG. 7 is a sectional view for explaining the length of the bent piece 19 and the bent state. In FIG. 7A, the length is set so that the tip 19A of the bent piece 19 does not contact the second outer cardboard 7 when bent. In this case, the folded piece 19 after storing the floppy disk is easy to bend and the work efficiency is improved. On the other hand, depending on the material of the paper, the bent portion tends to return to its original state after being left for a long time, and the bent piece 19 19
May be easily lifted. However, the bent piece 19 is in contact with the floppy disk,
Depending on the material of the paper, it may not return to its original state even after being left for a long time. In FIG. 7B, as in the embodiment, the bent piece 19 is set to have the same length as the thickness of the medium thick paper 9, and the leading end 19 A is set to a size just contacting the second outer thick paper 7. In this case, as in the case of FIG. 7A, the bending work after the storage of the floppy disk 19 is facilitated and the work efficiency is improved. On the other hand, depending on the material of the paper, the bent portion returns to the original state when left for a long time. There is a possibility that the bent piece 19 may be easily lifted at a store or the like. However, bent piece 1
Reference numeral 9 is in contact with the floppy disk, and depending on the material of the paper, it may not return to its original state even after being left for a long time.

In FIG. 7C, the bent piece 19 is set to be slightly longer than the thickness of the medium cardboard 9 so that the leading end 19A is folded inward. In that case. The bending work after storing the floppy disk 19 is somewhat complicated, and the work efficiency is relatively reduced. On the other hand, even if the bending work 19 is left for a long time, the state of the bending work 19 does not change. There is no easy lifting. In FIG. 7D, the bent piece 19 is set to be longer than the thickness of the medium cardboard 9 so that the tip 19A is bent inward while the bent piece 19 is bent in the middle. In that case, bent piece 1 after storing the floppy disk
9 While the bending work is somewhat complicated and the work efficiency is relatively reduced, the state of the bent piece 19 does not change even after being left for a long time, and the bent piece 19 can be easily lifted at a store or the like. There is no. At that time, a perforation and a broken line (a dent line due to embossing) are formed in the bent portion 1901 in parallel with the broken line 21.
If 1901A or the like is provided, the bending operation of the bending piece 19 is relatively easy and the working efficiency is improved. Further, if the contact portion 1902 between the bent piece 19 and the second outer cardboard 7 is bonded, the bent piece 19 can be fixed more firmly.

In FIG. 7E, the bent piece 19 is set to be longer than the thickness of the medium cardboard 9 so that the tip 19A is bent out while the bent piece 19 is bent in the middle. In this case, the exposed portion of the second outer cardboard 7 is reduced, the appearance of the disk storage body is improved, and the bent piece 1 after storing the floppy disk is used.
9 Bending work becomes easier and work efficiency is improved, but if left unattended for a long time, the folded part tends to return to its original state, and depending on the material of the paper, there is a possibility that the folded piece 19 can be easily lifted at a store or the like. There is. At this time, if perforations, broken lines (concave lines by embossing) 1903A, etc. are provided in the plurality of bent portions 1903 in parallel with the bent lines 21, the bending operation becomes relatively easy, and the working efficiency is improved, and further bending is performed. Piece 1
Since 9 is in contact with the floppy disk, it does not return to its original state even if it is left for a long time. Further, if the contact portion 1904 of the bent piece 19 and the second outer cardboard 7 is bonded, the bent piece 19 can be fixed more firmly.
