Description

[Detailed description of the invention]

[0001]

[Technical field to which the invention belongs]

 The present invention relates to a storage case for a disk-shaped recording medium for storing a disk-shaped recording medium such as a compact disk (CD) or a CD-ROM.

[0002]

[Prior art]

 As a case for accommodating a disk-shaped recording medium such as a compact disk or a CD-ROM, there is one shown in FIGS. 4 and 5, for example. These storage cases are of a cover-integrated type having a cover on one side of the case body. The storage case 1 shown in FIG. 4 is formed by superposing a thick mount 2 and a thin shell 3 made of synthetic resin. A large-diameter through-hole 2a is formed in the mount 2, and a storage recess 3a for storing the disc-shaped recording medium 4 and a center dowel 3b projecting from the center of the storage recess 3a are integrally formed in the shell 3. When the backing sheet 2 and the shell 3 are attached to each other, the storage recess 3a is fitted and held in the through hole 2a. By forming the shell 3 into a thin plate using the mount 2 in combination with the mountability, the weight and cost of the storage case 1 are reduced.

[0005] The storage case 4 shown in FIG. 5 is composed of a combination of a thick mount 5 and a frame 6, and the frame 6 having a storage recess 6a is attached to the mount 5. It is constructed by fusing a synthetic resin center dowel 7 at the center position of the storage recess of the backing paper 5, and using paper for most of the storage case 4 to further reduce the weight and cost. I have.

[0004]

[Problems to be solved by the invention]

 However, in such a storage case in which paper and synthetic resin are mixed, it is necessary to mold the synthetic resin portion of the shell and center dowel with a dedicated molding die, which is expensive and has a limit in cost reduction. In particular, the latter storage case requires a lot of man-hours, such as punching out a storage recess in the frame paper, attaching the mount and the frame paper, and then fusing a separate center dowel. The cost was high for the small amount.

[0005] Furthermore, disc-shaped recording media after purchase are often stored after being replaced with case shelves or large-sized storage cases. Therefore, storage cases for single items are disposed of as unnecessary items. The above storage case in which is mixed is unnecessarily discarded as incombustibles unless the user actively disassembles it.

Accordingly, the present invention has an object to provide a disc-shaped recording medium storage case which is extremely easy to manufacture and can be effectively used as recycled paper when disposed of as unnecessary articles. I have.

[0007]

[Means for Solving the Problems]

 In order to achieve the above object, the present invention comprises a backing sheet and a frame sheet attached to the backing sheet using an adhesive, and the frame sheet includes an outer frame surrounding the disc-shaped recording medium. A center dowel that fits into a center hole of the disc-shaped recording medium, and a disc-shaped recording medium that forms a storage recess for housing the disc-shaped recording medium between the outer frame and the center dowel. A storage case for a recording medium, wherein a non-adhesive surface on which the adhesive is not applied is provided at least in the same area as the storage recess on a surface to which the mount and the frame are adhered, and the frame is attached to the mount. The non-adhesive portion is cut off from the above, and the concave portion of the frame paper from which the non-adhesive portion has been removed is used as the storage concave portion, and the frame paper left after being adhered to the mount inside and outside the storage concave portion is respectively inserted into the center dowel. And the outer frame.

The above-mentioned non-adhesive surface has the same shape as the storage recess and a shape partially protruding outside the storage recess, and the partial recess continuous with the outside of the storage recess by cutting off the non-contact surface forms a circle. A finger hole for attaching and detaching the plate-shaped recording medium can also be provided.

According to this configuration, a disc-shaped recording medium storage case with a center dowel is formed by simply attaching the mount and the frame and cutting off the non-adhered portion of the frame. This storage case is formed only of the paper of the backing paper and the frame paper, and does not use incombustible or flame-retardant materials such as synthetic resin.Therefore, when the user disposes, there is no need to disassemble the material. However, it can be reused as recycled paper.

[0010]

[Embodiment of the invention]

 Hereinafter, an embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS. The storage case 10 for a disk-shaped recording medium such as a compact disk or a CD-ROM is a cover integrated type having a cover 11c on one side of the case main body 11 for opening and closing the case main body 11 freely. The cover 11c is formed mainly of two mounts 12 and a frame 13 and their surfaces are covered with thin decorative papers 14 and 15.

In the case body 11, an outer frame 11a surrounding the disk-shaped recording medium and a small circular center dowel 11b fitted into the center hole of the disk-shaped recording medium are formed by the above-mentioned frame paper 13. A ring-shaped storage recess 16 for storing a disk-shaped recording medium is formed between the outer frame 11a and the center dowel 11b. Four consecutive finger holes 16a are recessed at equal intervals in an arc shape.

For the mount 12 and the frame 13, the same rectangular thick paper having an aspect ratio of about 2: 1 is used. On the other hand, the decorative paper 14 has a rectangular shape slightly larger than the mount 12 and the frame 13. Further, the other decorative paper 15 is formed in a rectangle slightly smaller than the mount paper 12 and the frame paper 13, respectively. One decorative paper 14 is adhered to the lower surface of the mount 12 to which the frame 13 is attached, and the outer peripheral portion 14 a protruding from the periphery of the mount 12 is raised, and is adhered to the outer peripheral edge of the upper surface of the frame 13. Thereafter, the other decorative paper 15 is adhered on the upper surface of the frame paper 13 so as to cover the outer peripheral portion 14a of the one decorative paper 14.

A fold line 17 is cut in the middle part of the backing paper 12 and the frame paper 13 on which the decorative papers 14 and 15 are adhered, and one rectangular piece is cut from the fold line 17 into the above-described case. And the other rectangular piece from the folding line 17 is the cover 11a described above (FIG. 2).

An adhesive 18 is applied in advance to a surface of the mount 12 to be bonded to the frame 13, but a non-adhesive surface 19 to which the adhesive 18 is not applied is set on the case body 11 side. . The non-adhesive surface 19 is set in the same shape as the storage recess 16 and the four finger holes 16a on the outside thereof, and the adhesive 18 is applied to the outer frame 11a except the non-adhesive surface 19 and the center dowel 11b on the case body 11 side. The adhesive 18 is applied to the entire surface of the cover 11c.

[0015] A frame 13 is attached to the bonding surface of the backing 12 to which the adhesive 18 has been applied, and two decorative papers 14 and 15 are further attached to the backing 12 and the frame 13 as described above. After being adhered to the surface, the non-adhered portion 13a of the frame paper 13 corresponding to the shape of the non-adhered surface 19 is cut off integrally with the corresponding portion 15a of the decorative paper 15 using a cutting machine to thereby obtain the non-adhered portion. The recesses of the frame 13 from which the 13a has been removed become the storage recesses 16 and the finger holes 16a, and the remaining portions of the frame 13 adhered to the mount 12 inside and outside the storage recess 16 become the center dowel 11b and the outer frame 11a.

In this embodiment, as described above, the mount 12 and the frame 13 are bonded together, leaving the non-adhesive surface 19 corresponding to the shape of the storage recess 16 and the finger hole 16a. Since the storage case 10 with the center dowel is formed with a small number of man-hours just by cutting off the non-adhesive surface 19, it is extremely simple and inexpensive to manufacture, compared to a conventional product having a large number of man-hours using a dedicated mold. can do. Further, in the present embodiment, the finger hole 16a can be formed integrally with the housing recess 16 by cutting off the non-adhesive surface 19, even though the finger hole 16a is set outside the housing recess 16, so that the number of working steps is not increased. I'm done.

Further, since the entire storage case 10 is formed of paper, the cost of the product can be further reduced, and further, since it does not contain a non-combustible or non-combustible material such as a synthetic resin, it becomes unnecessary. Not only can the storage case 10 be disposed of without disturbing the user's hand, but also it can be reused as recycled paper, and resources can be effectively used.

In the embodiment described above, the cover-integrated storage case is used. However, the storage case of the present invention does not require the cover to be provided integrally. Also, in the present invention, the storage case can be formed by at least the mount and the frame, and the decorative paper used in the embodiment can be omitted. Furthermore, although the storage case of the embodiment has been described as being provided with a finger hole, the present invention is also applicable to a storage case having no finger hole.

[0019]

[Effect of the invention]

 The storage case for a disk-shaped recording medium according to the present invention comprises a backing sheet and a frame sheet adhered to the backing sheet using an adhesive. The bonding surface is provided with at least the same area as the storage recess for storing the disk-shaped recording medium, and the non-adhesive portion is cut off from the frame attached to the mount, and the concave portion of the frame removed from the non-adhesive portion is removed. Since the frame is left as a storage recess and the center frame is left and attached to the mount inside and outside the storage recess, respectively, it is used as the center dowel and the outer frame, respectively. It can be manufactured very simply and at low cost.

In addition, since the entire storage case is formed of paper, the cost of the product can be further reduced, and since it does not contain non-combustible or non-combustible materials such as synthetic resin, it is unnecessary. Not only can the storage case be easily disposed of without user intervention, but it can also be reused as recycled paper, and resources can be used effectively.

The above-mentioned non-adhesive surface is formed in the same shape as the storage concave portion and in a shape protruding partially outside the same, and a partial concave portion continuous to the outside of the storage concave portion by cutting off the non-adhesive surface. Can be used as a finger hole for attaching and detaching the disc-shaped recording medium. Since the finger hole can be formed integrally with the storage recess by cutting off the non-adhesive surface, there is an advantage that the number of operation steps does not need to be increased.
