Definitions
- Container for floppy disks, compact discs and similar data carriers which is used for the protected shipping of such data carriers in standardized shipping cases and envelopes.
- the invention serves for the secure and uncomplicated dispatch of data carriers in such a way that a protective container together with the data carriers and the letterheads in standardized envelopes and shipping cases completely fill the available space.
- the invention relates to a container for floppy disks, compact discs and similar digital or analog, flat, generally quadrangular data carriers, which is folded from a flat cardboard box or manufactured from cardboard or plastic and is used for the protected shipping of such data carriers in standardized shipping cases and envelopes .
- the size of the container essentially corresponds to the size of the shipping case or envelope used and optimally fills this shipping space. The production allows that it can be used multiple times without changes if it is in use.
- the container can be folded from cardboard or made from cardboard or plastic.
- the container is characterized in that it provides cavities for one or more data carriers corresponding to the corresponding shipping cases or envelopes, which are dimensioned in such a way that the data carrier (s) cannot slip significantly.
- the majority is generally used for data carriers and cavities, even if it can only be one data carrier or one cavity.
- the openings are preferably to be made at the top, since the data carriers are immediately recognizable when opening an envelope, but can also be on the side.
- the container is manufactured in such a way that a data carrier does not come into contact with the envelope or the shipping case on the flat side, so that possible letters can easily be enclosed.
- the cavities are accessible from one side to ensure that the data carriers are inserted and removed.
- the openings are unproblematic because they are covered by the shipping case / envelope used.
- the container is distinguished by the fact that it is equipped with cutouts for the problem-free insertion and removal of the data carriers and also offers the data carriers a non-slip hold.
- each opening is provided with a recess in the handle, so that the data carrier can be gripped with thumb and forefinger at any time and pulled out of the container or inserted into the container.
- Fig.lb three-dimensional view, with spatial tear lines.
- Fig.lc three-dimensional view, with tear lines and a special bridge for a C4 envelope and 3.5 inch disks.
- Fig.ld perspective view for conveying the idea of assembling the floppy disk, protective case and envelope.
- the cut from cardboard for a protective case for holding floppy disks is shown in FIG.
- the fold lines are formed in the base area.
- the container is brought together by double folding the two outer sides onto the glued-in web, which can be made of cardboard or cardboard or another carrier material and which, depending on the data carrier size and basic size, leaves an adjusted storage volume free.
- the distance between the two parallel folds corresponds to the receiving volume of the data carriers and their thickness and is given by the standardized standard thicknesses of the usual postal traffic customs and norms.
- the storage volume and the enclosed volume of the data carrier form the total volume of the actual envelope or the shipping case.
- the flap which is finally glued on serves for the clean end, in order to be able to pack the folding container simply and possibly mechanically, and for the static design of the container.
- FIG. 2 Perspective view of a plastic version with the same dimensions as the box version under Fig.lff.
- the container should be labeled, it is possible to print a label or even a recess on the container so that the address can be recognized on the data carrier.
- sketch drawings are included:
