Thecase supporting plate 2 a has a plurality of receivingdevices 6 a at its circumference and corresponding to theextensions 3 a. Each of thereceiving devices 6 a includes a receivinggroove 7 a and ahole 8 a, and aspindle 10 a is positioned at center of thecase supporting plate 2 a. A plurality of circular supportingribs 9 a are positioned betweenreceiving devices 6 a and the center of thecase supporting plate 2 a. When the case cover 1 a is positioned at thecase supporting plate 2 a, inner surface of the opening of thecase supporting plate 2 a slidably abuts at the circular supportingribs 9 a. After each of theextensions 3 a is positioned between two of thereceiving devices 6 a, the case cover 1 a is rotated with respect to thecase supporting plate 2 a until thepositioning plates 5 a of theextensions 3 a are in contact with the receiving devices 6 so that theextensions 3 a are completely inserted into thereceiving groove 7 a. Besides, thepositioning protuberances 4 a of theextensions 3 a are received in thehole 8 a of the receivinggroove 7 a. - However, as described above, the conventional multi optical disc storage case has the
extensions 3 a extending outwardly away from the opening of the case cover 1 a. Size of theextensions 3 a is rather large so that the size of thecase supporting plate 2 a is much larger than that of the case cover 1 a. Thus, the conventional multi optical disc storage case consumes too much space and it is troublesome to wrap it up by thermoforming packaging process. Besides, only thepositioning protuberance 4 a of theextensions 3 a are inserted into thehole 8 a of the receivinggroove 7 a so that it fails to secure the case cover 1 a and thecase supporting plate 2 a during transportation despite the conventional multi optical disc storage case is wrapped up by thermoforming films. - Thus, there is a need for a multiple optical disc storage case.
- It is an object of the present invention to provide a multiple optical disc storage case that save storage space and will not get loose due to shake or vibration. It is not necessary to wrap it up by the thermoforming packaging process so that cost is decreased and it is anti-theft and is helpful for environment protection.
- To achieve object of the present invention, the multiple optical disc storage case includes a upper cover, a lower supporting plate, and an outer fastener. The upper cover is hollow, and the lower supporting plate is used to assemble with the upper cover. The outer fastener is positioned at one of the upper cover and a lower supporting plate, and has at least one outer hook, at least one stop block and a plurality of resilient block. The outer hooks and the stop blocks are positioned at one side of the outer fastener, and the resilient blocks are equally separated and positioned at the other side of the outer fastener. The outer fastener also has a plurality of inner hooks positioned at the other of the upper case and the lower supporting plate so that the inner hooks are hooked up with the outer hooks.

This description is not to be taken in a limiting sense, but is made merely for the purpose of illustrating general principles of embodiments of the invention. The scope of the invention is best defined by the appended claims.
- Referring to
FIGS. 2 , 3, 4 and 5, the present invention provides a multiple optical disc storage case including aupper cover 10, a lower supportingplate 20, anouter fastener 30, and threeinner hooks 40. The lower supportingplate 20 is assembled with theupper cover 10 and has acircular wall 21. Acircular groove 22 is formed between thecircular wall 21 and theouter fastener 30 and is used to receive opening of theupper cover 10. Aspindle 23 is positioned at center of the lower supportingplate 20, and acavity 11 is positioned at and extends from the center of top surface of theupper cover 10, and thecavity 11 correspond with thespindle 23 of the lower supportingplate 20. Besides, adirection symbol 12 is integrally formed with theupper cover 10 and indicates which direction is to open or close the multiple optical disc storage case. - The
outer fastener 30 is circle-shaped and positioned at periphery of the lower supportingplate 20 including a plurality ofouter hooks 31, threestop blocks 32, threeprotuberances 33 and threeresilient blocks 34. Theouter hooks 31 are hook-shaped and are equally separated along inner side of theouter fastener 30, and threestop blocks 32 are straight and are equally separated along the inner side of theouter fastener 30. The threestop blocks 32 are equally separated at one side of theouter hooks 31. Theprotuberances 33 are substantially semi-circularly and are equally separated at theouter fastener 30. Besides, theprotuberances 33 are equally separated and positioned at theouter hooks 31 and abut at theupper cover 10. Theresilient blocks 34 are substantially rectangular and equally separated at the outer surface of theouter fastener 30. Besides, theresilient blocks 34 correspond with theouter hooks 31 between thestop blocks 32 and theprotuberances 33. Each of theresilient blocks 34 has two V-shaped grooves at its two sides so that it is easy to move theresilient blocks 34. Each of twogrooves 35 is substantially rectangular and is positioned below each of theresilient blocks 34, and thegrooves 35 are in communication with the two V-shaped grooves of theresilient blocks 34. - The
inner hooks 40 are hook-shaped cuboid and are equally separated near the opening of theupper cover 10. Theinner hooks 40 are respectively used to hook theouter hooks 31 of theouter fastener 30, and length of theinner hooks 40 is larger than distance among theouter hooks 31. Thus, theinner hooks 40 are still hooked up with theouter hooks 31 when theupper cover 10 is rotated. - The
spindle 23 of the lower supportingplate 20 passes through center holes of the optical discs when users want to store the optical discs within the multiple optical disc storage case. When theupper cover 10 is assembled with the lower supportingplate 20, the opening of theupper cover 10 is pushed into thecircular groove 22 of the lower supportingplate 20. Then, theinner hooks 40 are hooked up with theouter hooks 31 of theouter fastener 30. When users want to open the multiple optical disc storage case, theupper cover 10 is rotated in accordance with thedirection symbol 12 until theinner hooks 40 is stopped by thestop blocks 32 of theouter fastener 30. Then, theresilient blocks 34 are manually removed by the twogrooves 35 so that theinner hooks 40 are removed and theupper cover 10 is opened. When users want to close the multiple optical disc storage case again, the opening of theupper cover 10 is pushed into thecircular groove 22 of the lower supportingplate 20 and rotated in accordance with thedirection symbol 12 so that theinner hooks 40 are moved into thecircular groove 22. - Referring to
FIGS. 6 , 7 and 8, the second embodiment of the present invention is shown. The outer fastener 39 is positioned at the opening of theupper cover 10, and theouter hooks 31 of the outer fastener 39 are substantially rectangular. The outer hooks 31 are equally separated along inner side of theouter fastener 30, and theinner hooks 40 are substantially rectangular and equally separated at outer side of thecircular wall 21. When theupper cover 10 is assembled with the lower supportingplate 20 manually, the lower portions of theinner hooks 40 abut the upper portions of theouter hooks 31 so that theouter hooks 31 of theouter fastener 30 are hooked up with the inner hooks 40. - According to the present invention, when the
outer hooks 31 of theouter fastener 30 are hooked up with theinner hooks 40, it is difficult to separate theouter hooks 31 and theinner hooks 40 manually. Thus, it is unlikely that theupper cover 10 is not separated from the lower supportingplate 20 so as to prevent the optical discs from being stolen or lost. The multiple optical disc storage case of the present invention has a capability of anti-theft, and graphs or words are directly printed at theupper cover 10 by thermoforming packaging process. It is not necessary to wrap it up by thermoforming packaging process before the multiple optical disc storage case is shipped to customers. The present invention is helpful for environment protection and saves storage space because there are no protruding portions on theupper cover 10 and the lower supportingplate 20. - While the invention has been described with reference to the preferred embodiments, the description is not intended to be construed in a limiting sense. It is therefore contemplated that the appended claims will cover any such modifications or embodiments as may fall within the scope of the invention defined by the following claims and their equivalents.
