Description

[Detailed description of the invention] <Industrial field of application> This invention relates to a box for storing a floppy disk, and in particular a 3.5-inch micro floppy disk (micro diskette) covered with a hard plastic package. This invention relates to a box for storing microfloppy disks.

<Prior Art> In recent years, computers have become smaller due to the rapid development of integrated circuits, and floppy disks are being used as magnetic disks for small machines in place of the fixed disks used in large-scale CPUs. A floppy disk is a magnetic thin piece made of a piece of soft material, and because it reacts delicately to other magnetism and temperature, it is used in a simple plastic case to isolate the magnetic disk from the outside. ing. With the development of electronic technology and the rapid miniaturization and generalization of computers, the size of floppy disks has also changed. It has become possible to downsize the diameter to 3.5 inches. The newly developed 3.5-inch microfloppy disk is a small magnetic flake covered with a hard plastic package to protect it from deformation due to other magnetic fields, temperature, etc., or external pressure. However, there has not been a storage device that efficiently stores a 3.5-inch microfloppy disk covered with hard plastic, is easy to use, and can be stored in good condition. There is only No. 159170, 1984. Jitsuganaki
No. 59-159170 "Micro floppy disc storage book type box" has a storage frame that is rotatably supported on the side wall of the storage section of a book type box that opens on both the left and right sides, and a micro floppy disc storage inside the storage frame. A method of storing and fixing the disk has been adopted, but it has the disadvantage of a complicated structure.

<Problems to be Solved by the Invention> The purpose of this invention is to provide a new storage box body for storing a micro floppy disk.

According to this invention, each storage part of the storage box body is provided with a hook part that can store and support the micro floppy disk in a good condition without rattling.
A large number of floppy disks can be stored efficiently at the same time. Therefore, the purpose of this invention is to allow a 3.5-inch micro floppy disk covered with a hard plastic cover to be put in and taken out freely, and to maintain the micro floppy disk in good condition without wobbling or falling off. To provide a storage box exclusively for micro floppy disks, which has a simple structure and is convenient to carry.

<Means for Solving the Problems> The micro floppy disk storage box 10 according to this invention has a box that opens on both the left and right sides, a storage section 20 provided on the wall of the box, and a storage section 20 provided in the storage section. It consists of a hook part 30.

Hereinafter, the micro floppy disk storage box according to this invention will be explained in detail based on the embodiment shown in the drawings.

FIG. 1 is a perspective view showing the entire microfloppy disk storage box 10 according to this invention. The storage section 20 provided within the box body is formed by a raised frame body 23 provided inside the box body which is opened on both the left and right sides. The storage section is not limited to one formed by a frame. Frame 23 of storage section 20
is partially cut out, and a recess 33 is provided in the bottom surface 25 of the cutout. This recess 33 is for taking out the micro floppy disk fixed to the storage part 20 with the hook 30 by inserting your fingertip into this recess 33 and hooking the end of the micro floppy disk from below. It is something.
Therefore, this recess 33 is formed so that a part of the recess 33 protrudes from the bottom of the micro floppy disk when the micro floppy disk is stored. Take out the disk. The shape, size, depth, etc. of this recessed portion are not limited to those shown in the embodiments, and may not have this recessed portion. In this embodiment, four storage sections 20 are provided on the inner walls of the box body, which are opened left and right. The number of storage sections provided is not limited to the number shown in this example, but may be two depending on the size of the box, or three on one side.
It can also be made up of several compartments or more.

The storage section 20 is provided with a hook section 30. This hooking part 30 has a protrusion 3 inward on the upper part.
1, and this protrusion 31 and the bottom surface 25 of the storage section 20
Attach both the top and bottom ends of the microfloppy disk. In this embodiment, a plurality of hooks 30 are provided facing each other, and by positioning the microfloppy disk between the hooks, the microfloppy disk can be placed in the storage section 20. Attach, fix. In the embodiment, two hooks 30 are provided on each side, but the number of hooks and their arrangement are not limited to those shown in the embodiment. FIG. 2 shows a cross section of the microfloppy disk in a state where it is latched and fixed by the latching portion 30. The distance between the vertices of the protrusions 31 of the opposing hooks 30a and 30b is narrower than the width of the microfloppy disk. Further, a portion narrower than the width of the microfloppy disk is formed between the lower sloped surfaces of the protrusions 31 of the hooking portions 30a and 30b, and due to the existence of this portion, one or both of the opposing hooking portions are is pushed outward by the micro-floppy disk, and the micro-floppy disk is held in the storage portion 20 by being sandwiched between the opposing holding portions. The hooks 30a, 30b have legs 32a, 32b of different thicknesses, and thus have different elasticities. The hooking portion 30a has a leg 32a that is thicker than the leg 30b, and serves as a hooking portion of a receiver.
The hanging member 30b has elastic legs 32b that are thinner than the legs 30a.
The micro floppy disk 21 is inserted into the lower part of the projections of the locking portions 30a and 30b while pushing the microfloppy disk outwardly, and the floppy disk is pressed against the opposing locking portion 30a with the force of returning to its original position. FIG. 3 shows an example of a method of storing the microfloppy disk in the storage section. In the embodiment, the legs of the hooks 30a and 30b are formed to have different thicknesses, but they may be elastic and have the same thickness. The material of the hook portion 30 is synthetic resin, but the material is not limited thereto.

<Operation of the invention> When storing the micro floppy disk, as shown in FIG.
The micro floppy disk is inserted between the protrusion and the bottom surface of the holder 31, and is pushed outward to press the micro floppy disk from above so as to pass through the apex of the protrusion 31, and between the latching portion 30 and the bottom surface 25 of the storage portion 20. Store it in. As shown in FIG. 2, when the hooks with different leg thicknesses are provided opposite each other, the hooks 30a with the thicker legs are supported, and the hooks 30a
The micro floppy disk 21 is stored in the storage part 20 by pushing the floppy disk 0b outward. As shown in FIG. 2, the micro floppy disk stored in the storage section 20 is held in the storage section 20 by being sandwiched between the hooking section 30a of the receiver and the outwardly expanding hooking section 30b. . To take out the micro floppy disk stored in the storage section 20, put your fingertip into the recess provided at the bottom of the storage section 20, hook the end of the micro floppy disk, and take it out upward.

<Effects of the invention> Since the micro floppy disk storage box according to this invention has the structure detailed above, it is possible to insert and remove a 3.5-inch micro floppy disk covered by a plastic hard case (package). It is extremely easy to use, and has the practical effect of being able to organize, store, and store a large number of micro floppy disks at the same time in a stable manner while preventing shock, which is one of the causes of degrading the performance of floppy disks. has.
