  • This known packaging device is box-shaped in closed condition and comprises a first and second cover part, pivotally interconnected for the 5 opening and closing thereof.
  • fixing means for retaining the data carrier.
  • Such a device is intended, for instance, for storing CDs, diskettes, minidisks, credit cards, DVDs or like substantially platelike data carriers.
  • European patent application 0 420 350 discloses a packaging device comprising a somewhat box-shaped cover part having a bottom and upright walls, while the second cover part is in the form of a cover and can be pressed against the first cover part so as to close it.
  • the first cover part comprises an inlay sheet which, adjacent a central area thereof, is provided with resilient fingers capable of engaging in a central opening of a CD so as to retain the CD in a position approximately parallel to a bottom surface.
  • the first and second cover part and the inlay sheet are detachably interconnected.
  • an intermediate tray is provided which is pivotable relative to the two cover parts, which intermediate tray is likewise provided, adjacent a central area thereof, with resilient fingers for engagement in a central opening of a CD.
  • the CDs are situated relative to each other in such a manner as to fully overlie each other. This means that in opened condition the different CDs are not directly visible, since at least one of the CDs is kept from view by at least one of the other CDs.
  • a further disadvantage of this known packaging device, commonly referred to as jewel box is that it is relatively fragile, in particular also due to the different parts.
  • the object of the invention is a packaging device of the type described in the introductory part, which avoids the above-mentioned disadvantages of the known packaging devices while maintaining the advantages thereof To that end, a packaging device according to the invention is characterized by the features according to claim 1 .
  • the fixing means are so arranged that two or more data carriers can be positioned next to each other therein, displaced relative to each other such that the data carriers do not entirely overlap each other. This means that when the packaging device is open, the different CDs are all properly visible and moreover can be simply taken from the packaging device or be reinserted therein.
  • a packaging device it is preferred that in a packaging device according to the invention the two cover parts are mutually connected by a spine-like back part, with the fixing means being provided on the back part.
  • the fixing means being provided on the back part.

  • the advantage is achieved that the data carriers can be simply clamped by an edge portion thereof and can be fixed in this position to keep the data carriers in place within the packaging device.
  • fixing the data carriers in an optionally present central opening is no longer necessary, although possible in certain cases.
  • a packaging device according to the invention can also be employed for data carriers that are not provided with such an opening.
  • the advantages are achieved of a packaging device as known from WO 97/20315, in combination with the above-mentioned advantages.
  • the fixing means are preferably rod-shaped, in particular cylinder-shaped or frustoconical, optionally hollow.
  • fixing means are obtained of a relatively small volume, so that manufacturing times for these fixing members, in particular when use is made of injection molding technique, can be considerably shortened.
  • positioning means are provided for locking the data carriers in the fixing means at least when the packaging device is closed.
  • These positioning means are preferably provided in at least one of the cover parts, for instance adjacent a longitudinal edge thereof, opposite the back part.
  • supporting means preferably of different heights, can be provided for supporting the data carriers, at a point remote from the fixing means, when the packaging device is closed. As a result, a still better locking of the data carriers is obtained.
  • the positioning means and supporting means then preferably abut against the longitudinal edge of the data carrier or against a portion of a surface of the data carrier that does not carry information, as, for instance, within a range of 0 to 0.5 or 1 cm starting from the outer longitudinal edge.
  • the data carriers are preferably carried in the fixing means in such a manner as to extend at a relatively small distance from the back part, so that the fixing means can be small.
  • a stiffening ridge is provided for at least largely preventing bending and torsion of the back part.
  • a packaging device is preferably injection molded in one piece.
  • the parts of a packaging device according to the invention are preferably manufactured from transparent material, in particular polypropylene or a polypropylene-containing plastic. More particularly, it is preferred that a packaging device according to the invention is manufactured from polypropylene or a polypropylene-containing plastic, polymerized with metallocene.
  • the transparency is then preferably chosen so as to be more than 95.5%, in particular more than 97%.
  • the haze is therefore preferably less than 4.5%, more particularly less than 3%.

  • a back part 4 as discussed earlier can be provided, while on the side of each back part 4 remote from the first cover part 3 , a portion of a second cover part 5 is provided, such that both above-mentioned parts of the second cover part 5 can jointly close over data carriers received in the two back parts 4 .
  • all kinds of other positioning means and supporting means can be used, for instance loose elements, ridges, creases and the like, provided in one or both cover parts.
  • conventional fixing means for CDs can be provided, for engagement in the central opening thereof. Then still more CDs can be received in the same package.
