Description

[Detailed description of the invention] "Industrial Application Field" This invention relates to a storage box for safely storing a plurality of disc-shaped articles such as magnetic tapes by stably standing them still.

``Problems that conventional technology and ideas cannot solve'' Conventionally, multiple vertical partition plates were installed in parallel inside the box,
A storage box is known in which a cushion material is loaded at the bottom of the partitioned compartment so that various articles can be placed and stored therein for cushioning.

In addition, a rectangular plate such as a circuit board is engaged with a vertical groove provided on the inner surface of the box body, and the lower end is supported by a hard receiving plate, and the upper end of the plate is supported by a cushion material provided at the bottom of the lid. Storage boxes that are pressed and held are also known, but because the lower end of the storage plate is supported by a hard support plate, it is susceptible to damage from vertical impact, and the lower end of the storage box is supported by a hard support plate. This method has the drawback of being structurally complicated, such as requiring a longitudinal groove member to support the side end outside the receiving plate, and is particularly inapplicable to disc-shaped members.

Recently, however, it has become popular to manage information by magnetically recording various types of information on magnetic tapes and magnetic disks, but these magnetic tapes and magnetic disks are easily deformed or damaged by external forces or shocks. However, the disadvantage is that there is a high risk that the recorded information will be lost all at once, and the stability is particularly poor due to the disk shape, so it is difficult to provide cushioning by loading cushioning material inside the partition room as in the past. However, with the method of storing the product by placing it on top of it, it is extremely unstable as it sways and rolls due to vertical and horizontal vibrations and shocks during transportation, making it difficult to maintain safe storage and easily damaging it when taking it out. Currently, there is no suitable storage means for transporting and storing disc-shaped members.

"Means for solving the problem" This invention aims to solve the above-mentioned conventional problem.
A plurality of vertical partition plates 5 are arranged parallel to each other at a predetermined interval inside a case 1, which has a box-shaped opening/closing lid 2 pivotally attached to one peripheral edge of the top opening so that it can be opened and closed vertically. Soft elastic cushioning materials 9 and 10 are attached to the inner bottom of each of the box 1 and the opening/closing lid 2 so as to maintain a spacing between opposing surfaces smaller than the diameter of the disc-shaped article M1 when the opening/closing lid ₂ is closed. Attach the partition plate 5 of the box 1.
A horizontal locking surface 11 is provided on the inner surface facing in the front and rear end directions of the partition plates 5, and maintains a spacing between opposing surfaces such that when the disk-shaped article _M1 is inserted between the partition plates 5, 5, both sides of the disk-shaped article M1 can be locked.
12, the disk-shaped article M ₁ is tightly inserted between the horizontal locking surfaces 11 and 12 between the partition plates 5 and 5, and the lower peripheral edge is connected to the soft elastic cushioning of the inner bottom of the box 1. By closing the opening/closing lid 2 while elastically supported on the material 9, the soft elastic cushioning material 10 on the inner bottom of the lid 2 is elastically pressed from above, and the upper and lower soft elastic cushioning materials 9, 10
A disk-shaped article that can be elastically pressed and held in a stable and safe manner, and when taken out, it is automatically released from the holding state by opening an opening/closing lid 2 and can be easily taken out. It provides a storage box.

"Operation of the invention" When storing the large-diameter disc-shaped article _M1 in the case 1 having the above structure, the attachments 13 hanging from each partition plate 5 are biased to the left side in FIG. 2, that is, to one side. With the supporting member 14 provided moved toward the end of the partition plate 5, a large-diameter disc-shaped article _M1 is inserted between each partition plate 5, 5.

At this time, the large-diameter disk-shaped article M ₁ is separated from the partition plates 5 and 5.
Even if it is dropped between the horizontal locking surfaces 11 and 12, it is safe because the cushioning material ₉ at the bottom elastically catches it and cushions it. They fit together, and their both side edges are locked so that they are positioned and held without shifting laterally.

When the opening/closing lid 2 is closed after inserting the large-diameter disc-shaped article M ₁ , the cushioning material 10 at the inner bottom bites into the upper part of the large-diameter disc-shaped article M ₁ and comes into pressure contact with the upper and lower cushioning materials. 9 and 10, the upper and lower portions of the large-diameter disk-shaped article _M1 are elastically restrained vertically, horizontally, and front-rear, and held stably and in a cushioning manner.

As a result, the large-diameter disc-shaped article _M1 is elastically clamped to the upper and lower cushioning members 9 and 10, and is held statically and elastically without swinging or rolling.
In addition, since it is held in a buffered manner against external shocks and vibrations, it is protected against vibrations during transportation of the box 1, shocks or overturning when the box 1 is accidentally dropped, and even when multiple boxes 1 are stacked. It can also be extremely safely protected against loads.

Moreover, when the large-diameter disc-shaped article _M1 is to be taken out, by opening the opening/closing lid 2, it is automatically released from the clamping holding state and can be taken out easily.

``Example'' Below, an example of this invention shown in the drawings will be described.The box 1 is made of a rigid plate such as a metal plate and formed into a box shape. Box-shaped opening/closing lid 2
is pivotally connected by metal bending arms 3 and 4 as hidden hinge members so that it can be opened and closed vertically.

Inside the box 1, a plurality of vertical partition plates 5 are arranged in parallel at predetermined intervals, and the inner edge of the horizontal upper peripheral flat wall 6 around the opening of the box 1 has an inward hook shape. The protruding edge 7 is integrally formed to be bent upward.

Horizontal upper circumferential plane wall 1 around the opening of the opening/closing lid 2
5 has an inward projecting edge 8 that fits onto the outer periphery of the projecting edge 7 of the box 1 and overlaps with it while maintaining high strength.
are integrally bent.

The inner bottom of the box 1 and the inner bottom of the opening/closing lid 2 are covered with soft elastic cushioning materials 9 and 1 such as rubber sponge.
0 is attached and the opening/closing lid 2 is closed, the distance between the opposing surfaces of these soft elastic cushioning materials 9 and 10 is smaller than the diameter of the large-diameter disc-shaped article M ₁ such as a magnetic tape to be stored. are also set at slightly smaller intervals.

Further, when the large-diameter disc-shaped article M ₁ is inserted between the partition plates 5 , the partition plate 5 is arranged such that the upper periphery of the large-diameter disc-shaped article M ₁ protrudes upwardly from the upper end of the partition plate 5 . The top position of is set.

On the left and right inner walls of the box 1, there are large-diameter disk-shaped articles.
Horizontal lateral locking surfaces 11 and 12 made of channel-shaped materials are provided opposite each other with a spacing between opposing surfaces approximately equal to the diameter of _M1 , and the front and rear ends of each partition plate 5 are supported by these.

A rectangular plate-shaped attachment 13 is suspended from the upper end of each partition plate 5 by being engaged with a hook portion provided at the upper end thereof.

The attachment 13 has a support member 14 projecting from the lower side of its surface that is inclined in one direction. The lower peripheral edge of a small-diameter disk-shaped article _M2 having a smaller diameter than the disk-shaped article _M1 can be placed and held thereon.

That is, when storing the small-diameter disc-shaped article _M2 ,
The attachment 13 hanging from each partition plate 5 is attached to the second
Support member 1 provided biased to the right side of the figure, that is, to one side
With the side edge opposite to 4 moved toward the end of the partition plate 5, a small-diameter disk-shaped article M ₂ is inserted between each partition plate 5, A portion of the lower peripheral edge is supported by the support member 14, and one side edge is held against the horizontal locking surface 11.

Then, in this state, by closing the opening/closing lid 2 in the same manner as the large-diameter disk-shaped article M ₂ , the small-diameter disk-shaped article M ₂ has its upper peripheral edge protruding above the partition plate 5 elastically moved by the cushioning material 10 . It is also held securely and stably by the buffer.

``Effects of the invention'' As described above, according to this invention, a disc-shaped article is tightly inserted and positioned between the horizontal locking surfaces between the partition plates, and the lower peripheral edge of the disc-shaped article is inserted into the inner bottom of the case. By closing the opening/closing lid while elastically supported by the cushioning material, the soft elastic cushioning material at the top and bottom is resiliently pressed and held by the soft elastic cushioning material at the inner bottom of the case and the lid, and the soft elastic cushioning material at the top and bottom It bites into the upper and lower ends of the disc member and elastically restrains it in all directions, up and down, front and back, left and right, and can stably and safely buffer and hold against shocks and vibrations, and when taken out. By opening the opening/closing lid, the pressure holding state is automatically released,
Can be taken out easily.
