Embodiment FIG. 1 is a perspective view showing an embodiment of the present invention. The same parts as those in the conventional example are designated by the same reference numerals and the description thereof will be omitted. In the figure, the lid 6 has a Fresnel lens 8 formed at a position corresponding to the seal 7 of the disc cartridge 2. Since the focus is adjusted according to the distance between the Fresnel lens 8 and the fixed disc cartridge 2, the contents written on the seal 7 of the disc cartridge 2 are sufficiently enlarged for easy viewing. As another embodiment, a Fresnel lens 8 may be formed on the entire surface of the lid 6 so that the description of the seal 7 can be enlarged and read regardless of the position of the disc cartridge 2 fixed. In still another embodiment, the main body 4 is also made of a translucent material, the Fresnel lens 8 is formed in the portion surrounded by the protrusions 3, and even if the disc cartridge 2 is mounted in the opposite direction, the seal 7 You may make it possible to enlarge and read the contents described in.

[0006]

[Effect of the device]

 According to the present invention, it is possible to enlarge the content written on the seal of the disc cartridge to make it easier to read.
