Abstract

The invention relates to an assemblable structural module for orderly maintaining digital discs in their cases. The size of the case may vary and, consequently, the size of the module. A profile structure sustains the assembly of elements that are arranged inside therein. Each assembly comprises a holding device that maintains a case in the module. The holding device is connected to a pivoting element that is pivotally received in an insertion device extending in such a way that it can slide along a profile structure to a position determined by the user. Sliding of the inserting devices takes place along passages in the profile structure. The ends of said passages are sealed by devices that can be removed and that normally prevent the assemblies from being taken out from the passages of the structure. The cases can be opened without having to remove them from their holders. The cases can be identify by their cover which is made visible to the user by the pivoting movement.

Description

ASSEMBLY STRUCTURAL MODULE TO KEEP DISCS ORDERLY

DIGITAL IN YOUR CASE.

DESCRIPTION

The present invention relates to a structure for storing digital discs. More particularly, it refers to an assembled structural module to grow indefinitely, in which a plurality of digital discs, both audio and video and data, are kept neatly in their individual case.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

The invention of compact dicos, in which digitalized information can be stored, whether audio, video, data or combined, meant a huge step in the field of data storage, mainly for the industry dedicated to the fun, like the record companies, those dedicated to the manufacture and distribution of video games and the movie-producing companies.

In the following description and in the appended claims, reference is made specifically to audio compact discs, for example, to music discs, but it should be understood that they are also contemplated within the scope of the present invention the discs video compacts, such as DVD movies and the like, and video game discs and other data discs, both in GD format and in CD-R and - GDRW and similar formats. Therefore, the reference to compact music discs and their cases is merely illustrative and in no way restrictive.

As regards record companies, which produce millions of audio discs worldwide, both the re- - Z -

Conduction-sized duction with reference to the old acetate discs and the like, commonly referred to as LP or long-lasting, such as increased storage capacity and greater resistance to abuse, caused music to stop producing (in all its forms) very soon. LP format and the compact disc and the digitalized recording-reading system will be completely and definitively changed.

Another element that has contributed powerfully to the dissemination and popularization of the compact disc has been the design - of the case in which each one is stored. The standardization of these cases has allowed for uniformity in presentation and - has contributed positively to a set of compact disc cases forming an aesthetically pleasing collection.

This also contributed to the greater convenience in handling and preserving the discs that a music fan can have in his home, office or car, and even that he can carry with him to feed the personalized portable player. At the same time, many systems and models emerged to keep the acquired discs together in a specific place.

There are currently many models of furniture and structures for the conservation and storage of compact discs in their case, and some for portals without a case. As for the former, they could generally be divided into two categories: the furniture type, and the tower type. Furniture types are generally a succession of shelves, arranged one on top of the other, in each of which a certain number of compact disc cases can be aligned, so that they are contiguous with each other. , and present to the user the "spine" of the case for identification, in the manner of a library in which the spine of the book is for consultation and identification of the reader. In another type of furniture, the compact disc cases are stacked horizontally arranged in individual compartments, separated so that they can be removed without altering the battery and the empty site is retained until the case is reinstated. In this second type of furniture for compact discs, the "loin" of the case, which generally contains the name of the disc, the name of the artist or group or orchestra and the seal that produced it, is also the only information to more than some number or identification key of the company itself. record label

This, which apparently would be sufficient for the user to have at their disposal sufficiently clear and precise data to decide which disk he wishes to extract from the plurality - of discs that he retains in the furniture, is difficult because a standardization in orientation has not been reached. of the legends that are placed on the edges of the case; so some - remain in one orientation and others in the opposite. On the furniture - in which the disks are arranged vertically side by side until a shelf is filled horizontally, this implies having to be tilting the head sideways to one side and to the other side.to be able to lend the legends that appear in the "spine" of the compact disc, according to the legend oriented in one direction or the opposite. In the case of furniture with vertical stacking, there are some head-down and other head-up titles, which makes it almost impossible to read the head-down titles.

With regard to the tower-type disk stores, these correspond in their system to the second type of furniture, that is, they form stacks of up to one hundred discs, in almost individual rows arranged vertically one on top of the other. which, with the signs upside down, has the same difficulty already indicated in the preceding paragraph. Additionally, these "towers" are not very aesthetic, very unstable, and really give little protection to the discs and their cases against external agents

It is clear that, in the case of storage in these tents, when a case is removed to remove the disc, of course - there is a defined space for each disc and the cases immediately adjacent to the extracted one may tend to close, so that It is difficult to find the place where the es_ tuche was extracted. This means little chance of maintaining an order of finished in the cases and, therefore, on the disks, unless the user adds additional identifiers on their own, such as appropriate alpha-numeric or numerical codes to maintain the order that he Want in your disco.

As far as the orientation of the legends is concerned, in - the three types of disk stores it is necessary to turn - the cases so that the legends can be in the same direction. This means that, when removing the case, not all will be oriented with the side that opens towards the same hand of the user, so additional manipulation will be necessary to turn the case to the proper position to open it. This complicates the operation and may involve risks to the integrity of the case due to the additional handling required to open it.

Also in all the different kinds of compact disc stores there is a difficulty that it is necessary to remove the case from its position to open it and remove the disc to insert it into the player and listen to it or see it. Then, either the case is left out of its place to be reinstated when the disc is finished playing, or it is immediately returned to the store, in an empty state; must - be removed again from the storage to open, insert the disc into the case and for the second time return it to its place, more or less well defined. As can be seen from the above, there is a need for a - compact disc storage in its case, which retains the advantages of known devices, and eliminates the disadvantages of storage devices in the market. The present invention comes to fill that need.

Indeed, it is an object of the invention to provide a structural module intended to be fixed to a wall; said module can be connected to other similar ones, arranged either above or below the first.

Another purpose of the invention is to provide means in the structural module, by means of which the assembly and disassembly of the additional modules can be carried out, without altering - the arrangement, availability, order or safety of - the disk cases Compact stored in them.

A purpose of the invention is to provide a module ^'structural formed by a profile of a specified configuration to cooperate with ca a plurality of elements; in which each of the compact disc cases is kept individually adjacent to the others, in an upright position.

It is also an object of the invention to provide in the structural module means for the individual maintenance of - the compact disc cases in relation to contiguity - with each other, but with pivot capacity so that they can - present to the user at least a portion of the cover or cover of the case, for its identification; regardless of the orientation in which the "loin" information appears.

A further purpose of the invention is to provide individual fastening means for each case, which retain the case in place and allow to open, at least partially, the case for removing the disc, without having to remove the case from - your site

It is another purpose of the invention to provide a privot element for each individual clamping means for compact disc case; each clamping means being received in a pivot element, and each pivot element in an individual inserter; so that each assembly by means of fastening, pivot element and inserter can be inserted and / or removed from the module, both when it contains a compact disc case and - when it does not contain it.

A further purpose of the present invention is to provide - in the holding means means that retain the respective compact disc case firmly with respect to the holding means; and additional bearer identification means, which allow the user to identify without a doubt the classification of his - disk collection.

It is also another purpose of the present invention to provide removable retaining means in the module, in order to maintain in its position the plurality of inserters with the respective pin and the corresponding fastener, to prevent the unintentional exit of these elements, of the module that contains them.

BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

These purposes of the present invention and others that will appear in the course of the detailed description that - comes later, are achieved with a structural module, of a rigid material, capable of supporting the weight of a plurality of - compact disc cases, with its respective disc, without deformation. The structural module is formed from a special profile structure, which extends horizontally, provided with upper and lower connection means to be assembled to other identical modules that can be added as needed. Necessary or desirable.

The special profile structure is formed with upper and lower passage means, which open respectively downwards and upwards, arranged to cooperate in receiving and maintaining a plurality of insertion elements, arranged to run within said passages and be kept in them.

Each insertion element is provided with upper and lower pivot receiving openings, in which the respective upper and lower ends of a spike bar are housed which is anchored in the insertion element, and which runs together with it, along the passages of the profile structure. The pivot bar is generally cylindrical, and has a stop portion near one of its ends, and an insert portion, near the opposite end. An elongate fastener, generally in the form of "C", forms a space in which a compact disc case can be accommodated. At one of the ends of the fastener element is formed an anchoring element, of generally open circular section, which cooperates with the pivot bar to fix the fastener element to the pivot bar, and which can pivot with it. At the other end, the fastener element - has a protrusion that serves to firmly, but removably, secure the compact disc case to the fastener element. Finally, that second end of the fastener element has an outer portion that defines a surface on which an identification tag can be placed. The position of the plurality of inserters in the passages of the profile structure is ensured by means of detachable retainers that close the pa. You can remove them at both ends, and they can be removed to remove one or more inserters.

The arrangement of the different elements is such that they allow the plurality of compact disc cases to be maintained. two in the module pivot to show at least partially the cover of the case to the user, so that the latter can identify the disk inside the image and / or the legend (s) of the cover or cover. In addition, the protrusion that firmly holds the case to the holder is arranged in such a position that it does not impede the opening or closing of the case thus supported, - so that it can be opened to remove the disc, without having to be removed from your position

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED MODE

Again, it should be noted that the principles of the invention extend to other forms of digital disc cases, such as DVD type for movies and other data formats. Therefore, although the description that follows will refer to music CDs, it should be taken into account - that it is simply for descriptive purposes, and not as a restriction on the scope or spirit of the invention, which are defined in the claims that come at the end.

With reference first to Figure 1, the module eg; The structure of the present invention is generally indicated with the number 10. The module 10 is also generally constituted by a profile structure 50, in which a plurality of insertion elements are slidably inserted. 100, which may be as many as the length of the structure 50 allows, or as many as the user wishes, without exceeding that limit. Both ends of the structure 50 carry retaining elements 120, which can be fixed or removed at will, and which are intended to maintain the position and relationship of the inserting elements 100 within the structure 50.

Each inserter element 100 carries a pivot bar 150, which can pivot freely in the inserter member 100. From the rod 150 a fastener 200 diametrically extends outwardly in the form of a strip, which is anchored to the rod - 150, and which aims to contain and hold a 250 compact disc case.

This diversity of elements, their position with respect to the profile structure 50, the relationship they have with each other and their arrangement with respect to each other, can be better appreciated if reference is made to Figure 2, which is similar to figure 1, but in which the compact disc cases are removed and only one inserter assembly 100, pivot bar 150 and fastener 200 are shown, for clarity. It should be borne in mind that there may be a plurality of similar assemblies, as many as the length of the profile structure 50 can allow. Of course, there would be a danger that the end-inserters 100 could accidentally slip out of the structure of profile 50, since its ends, as seen in figures 1 and 2, are open. To avoid this, retainers 120 are received in their respective upper and lower positions. These seals will be discussed more widely in relation to Figure 4.

With reference now to Figure 3, an end view of the profile structure 50 is shown therein. The profile structure 50, preferably, is formed of a rigid material, such as a metal or a plastic capable of supporting, without deforming, the weight of the plurality of elements that will retain the corresponding plurality of compact disc cases 250. In a preferred embodiment, said profile structure 50 is made of aluminum. The length of the structure 50 may vary widely. - li ¬ te, depending on the space available for storage - of disks. However, in a preferred embodiment, structure 50 will be around 40 cm in length, so that it will be able to store up to twenty 250 cases of audio compact discs.

With reference now to Figure 3 in a specific manner, an extreme view of the profile structure is illustrated, in which the characteristic details of said profile appear. The profile structure 50 is formed with a bottom wall - which has a height appropriate to the size of the case to be received and stored. In the illustrated mode, the height is consistent with the socks of a compact music disc case.

As clearly seen in Figure 3, the bottom wall is formed with two clearly differentiated panels, 51, 52, separated from each other by a portion of projecting wall 53, which is in a different plane from that of panels 51, 52, from those - which is projected through. the inclined walls 54, 55. In addition to serving as a structural reinforcement, this arrangement of the bottom wall allows the fastening means, such as screws (not shown) or the like, to be introduced through the respective through holes 56, 57, do not interfere - with the position or functions of the elements to be - contained by the profile structure 50, and which will be described later.

Said elements will be arranged at the level of the protruding wall portion 53; same level as the - additional elements of the profile structure 50, since the pa. The upper one (when seen in Figure 3) 51 ends at its upper end on an inclined wall 58 from which an upper wall 60 extends upwards, coplanar with the portion of pa. outgoing network 53. Similarly, the lower panel (when seen in Figure 3) 52 ends at its lower end in an inclined wall, gives 59, from which a lower wall 61 extends downwards, coplanar with the projecting wall portion 53 and with the upper wall 60. As can be seen clearly, the upper and lower structural portions are the same, although symmetrically opposed to each other extending in the same direction from the upper wall 60 and from the lower wall 61, respectively, to define a generally "C" setting.

Approximately one third of its extension upwards, the upper wall 60 has a short projection 62 extending at a right angle to the upper wall 60. Approximately one third of the height of the upper wall 60 extends a transverse wall 64, parallel to the short projection 62. A second short projection 74 finishes the upper end of the upper wall 60. The second projection co 74 is parallel to the first 62 and the transverse wall 64, - which it ends in a vertical wall 66, parallel to the wall its peropr 60, at the lower end of which is a horizontal wall 68, coplanar with the first short projection 62, and which defi. ne with it an access opening to the lower space 76, so as to define, along the entire length of the profile structure 50, a continuous passage, open downwards.

Towards the opposite end of the horizontal wall 68, and on its upper face said wall, together with a horizontal wall 70 located further up, a vertical end wall 80 and a lower projection, coplanar with the first projection 62 and the wall horizontal 68, defines a second access opening to a second interior space 82, open downwards, which defines a second passage that extends along the entire profile structure 50. This second passage 82 is smaller than the passage 76. This sequence of elements defines the upper closure of the generally "C" shaped configuration of the structure. Profile structure 50.

Out of this upper closing portion, the matte 74 of the upper wall 60 and a cap 75 of the upper end of the parallel vertical wall 66, extend horizontally in the same plane, and define between them an opening of - access to a third passage 72, closed at the bottom by the wall - transverse 64, and opened upwards.

Correspondingly, the lower wall 61 is - topped by the transverse wall 65, above which the projection 63 extends - the opposite end of the transverse wall 65 carries the vertical wall 67, at whose upper end - the wall 69 is found, coplanar with the projection 63 and which, on one end, defines the projection 85 which, together with the projection 63, define an access opening to the lower passage 90, which extends along the entire length of the profile structure 50. Said passage, as can be seen, is open upwards, and corresponds in position, orientation and dimensions, with the upper passage 76, which opens downwards.

At the opposite end, the coplanar wall 69 defines - another projection 86 which extends horizontally in the opposite direction to the projection 85. A lower short wall leaves from below the wall 69 and at its lower end gives rise to the horizontal wall 71, at the opposite end of which a short vertical wall is raised, parallel to that already mentioned, and which ends at a projection 87, co-planar with the projections 63, 85 and 86. Between the projection 86 and 87, they define an opening of access to the passage 91 that runs along the entire profile structure 50. This passage 91 corresponds in position, orientation and dimensions, with the upper passage 82, which opens downwards. This sequence of elements closes down the generally "C" configuration of the profile structure 50. - OR -

As stated above, the upper and lower ends of the profile structure 50 are symmetrically opposed. This is true as regards the elements that extend into the "C" shaped figure. But those that remain external to this figure are different, although complementary. Thus, the upper passage 72, which opens upwards, corresponds to the lower projection 73, generally in the form of an inverted "T", whose neck has a suitable thickness to pass through the defined opening between the projections 74 and 75 ; while the width of the lower terminal wall 73 is suitable to be received within the passage 72. The height of the lower wall - terminal 73 and that of the passage 72 correspond in such a way that a profile structure 50 can be inserted with - the portion 73 in the passage 72, for assembling a succession of profile structures 50, so that the storage capacity of the assembly structure module 10 of the present invention can be increased at will. This assembly can be defined as tongue and groove, but it is not a limitation for the present invention, since any other type of assembly elements could be used, without departing from the scope of the inventive concept.

The passages 76 and 90, as shown, is | in ^•>. open at the ends of the structure 50. The extreme openings can be closed by means of special retainers which, in the presently preferred fashion of the invention are in accordance with that illustrated in Figure 4, which is an exploded view of the re¬ ten 120 expressly intended for use in the present invention. The retainer 120 is formed so that it can be introduced and removed from the respective passage 76 or 90, whenever necessary or desired, without influencing the position or function of the other elements contained in the structure 50, and that will be described later.

The retainer 120 comprises a first element comprising of a first knurled portion 121, suitable for being able to be - comfortably fastened, at one of whose ends (the upper one - when seen in Figure 4) a second threaded portion 122 is protruding. The diameter of the first portion The milled 121 is such that it cannot pass through the access opening to the passage 76 or 90; while the diameter of the threaded portion is suitable for it to pass through said access opening. A complementary element 123, in this case illustrated as a square nut 123, is arranged to receive threadedly, in its central hole 124, the threaded portion 122 The dimensions, for example, the dimension "A" of the nut 123 are suitable so that it can be received within passage 76 or 90, and so that it cannot rotate within said passage, so that when the knurled portion 121 is rotated manually, this portion is pressed against the nut and thus maintain a position of_seed within the respective passage 76 or 90.

It should be noted that this assembly illustrated in Figure 4 is simply an example of the elements that could be used to close the ends of passages 76 and 90; therefore, they do not constitute a limitation on the scope of the inventive concept, but simply a practical application modality.

In Fig. 5 there is an inserter element 100, whose function is to insert into the profile structure 50 the rest of the elements that constitute the module 10 of the invention, and which will be described later. Specifically, the inserter 100, which also has a profile configuration generally in the form of "C", is designed to extend between the access opening to the upper passage 76 (Figure 3) and the access opening to the lower passage 90 ( figure 3).

A straight wall 101, which has a very elongated rectangular plate shape, is formed to be placed in contact with the walls 53, 60 and 61 of the structure 50. The upper end and the lower end of the inserter 100, are formed - symmetrically opposed, and are defined by a horizontal end wall 102, 112, in which a protuberance is formed - 103, 113, which extends, respectively, upwards (103) and downwards (113). The end wall 102, 112 ends in one by; ciδn bent downwards and inwards at 104, 114, whereby the end portion 105, 115 free of said walls, is projected towards the inner part of the straight wall 101, without reaching it.

Near the free end of the portion 105, 115, said portions are provided with a through hole 106, 116 respectively, which extend coaxially with each other. The diameter of these through holes 106, 116 is suitable for pivotally receiving a pivot bar (Figures 6 and 7). The width of the inserter 100 is approximately 2 cm when the structural module of the invention is intended for disc cases - music compacts or the like; It may be different for - other types of cases, such as video discs (movies and the like), without leaving the spirit of the inventive agreement of the present. The protrusions 103, 113 are arranged in such a position, and have such dimensions, that they can be received at the entrance to passages 76 and 90; and as they extend to the entire width of the wall 102, 112, they are suitable for sliding along said passages.

In Fig. 6 the pivot bar 150 is illustrated - which is received in the receiving openings 106, 116 of the insert 100. The rod 150 has a generally circular cross-section in its body 151, except for the portions that are described. below and which are illustrated in Figure 6. The body has two ends, the upper 166 and the lower - 167. Near the upper end 166 there is a flattened portion - 153, in the form of a shovel, which extends from an edge of Minor - thickness 155, included within the diameter of the bar 150, to an opposite edge 154 thicker, which substantially protrudes from the diameter of the bar.

Near the lower end 167, the bar has a break at 152, which alters the general direction of the bar 150, and which serves to define a stop for a function described below, in relation to Figure 8. Both this stop portion 152 and the rest of the bar, (except the flattened portion da) have a suitable diameter, on the one hand, to be received in the privot openings 106, 116 of the inserter 100, and on the other, to tightly receive a connection portion of the sujj; Case holder, described in relation to Figures 7 and 8.

As can be seen in Figure 7, the case holder 200 is arranged to connect to the bar 150 and extend diametrically from it. However, in figure 8 the fastener 200 is shown - with its connecting end at the bottom - and with its free end at the top. Therefore, this change of orientation between the two figures must be taken into account in the description that follows. It could be said that while the bar in figure 6 is shown in front view - in elevation, the inserter 200, in figure 8, is shown as a top plan view.

The inserter 200 is formed as a low height strip 201, at whose free end a transverse salt wall 202 extends. Correspondingly, the transverse wall 203. extends as the end of the strip 201 at the free end , there is an eyebrow 204 extending parallel to the wall 202. An extreme wall with an eyebrow 205 directed towards the eyebrow 204 is projected from the opposite end of the wall 202. Both eyebrows define an external groove 212 that runs wide of the strip 201. On its inner face, the wall 202 has a - rim 206, arranged to extend the entire width of the wall.

At the connecting end, the wall 203 ends in an inclined wall portion 207 that opens to define a greater distance between the strip 201 and the end of the inclined wall 207, than at the base thereof. On the opposite side, a neck 210 is centered, which also extends to the entire width of the wall 203, from which a generally cylindrical wall 208 is projected, - which defines a cylindrical passage 209, which extends to the entire width of the fastener 200. The generally cylindrical wall 208 is open at the ¹ point diametrically opposite the neck 2! IO, and the amplitude of the opening is such that it can be received at the straight edge 155 of the bar 150, to be slid down from - the flattened portion 153 towards the cylindrical portion 151, where it will be anchored in fixed relationship with the bar, so that it can pivot with it.

The dimensions of the strip, between the walls 202 and 203 are such that a compact disc case, indicated in stippling at 250, can be received, with the edge of the case 250 by which said case is opened, arranged towards the free end of the power strip As is known, at that end all the cases are provided with an eyebrow 251, which is passed through the running edge to be held by it, so that the case that signs in its position inside the fastener 200 for It is possible to pivot tar together with this and the bar 150, in the pivot openings 106, 116 of the inserter 100, as already described and as illustrated in Figure 7.

In its use, a plurality of inserters, with the bar and fastener arranged in position, slides along the passages 76 and 90, until the extension of the structure 50 is filled. At the free ends of the structure 50 the respective seals 120 are fixed, so that the inserters cannot - move from their position, unless you intend to move them. A compact disc case 250 is introduced into each fastener, first introducing the opposite portion to the end - where it opens along the inclined wall 207, and then forcing the eyebrow 251 forcefully over the running edge - 206, so that the case is secured in the position shown in figure 8.

Given the greater width of the insert 100, in relation - with the case 250 of the compact disc, between case and case - there is sufficient space so that they can be pivotally moved between a normal position with respect to the structure 50, and one moved towards a extreme or other. This movement allows the user to "open" the cases sufficiently to be able to read their covers and, upon finding the desired case, open the case - without having to remove it from its position in the holder, to remove the disc.

In a preferred embodiment, passages 82, 91 (Figure 3) carry a felt strip or the like, so as to help maintain a selected position for the cases, without obstructing their change of orientation, as described above.

For its part, the slot 212 of the fastener (Figure 8) - can carry a suitable identifier, at the user's choice, which can be, for example, an alphanumeric password that identifies the case and the disc contained therein, or color key that defines the type of music to which the disc contained in the respective case belongs, for example: classical, rock, folklore, instrumental, tropical, etc. Of course, other keys could be included to classify discs under other criteria, for example, by interpreter, by brand, by nationality, etc.

The ease of removing and inserting the inserters in a certain position it allows that, without altering other fasteners, a new disc can be introduced, for example, into a series belonging to the same musical genre, with which - a better, more orderly storage of the discs is obtained of a collection.

Again it is noted that, although pa. To illustrate the present invention a structural module 10 des¬ timed to audio discs, the same inventive principles are applicable to other formats, for example, DVD movies or similar, whose cases have other dimensions; for which simply it is enough to alter the dimensions of the different elements to adapt them to those of the other formats. It should also be noted that, although precise terms have been used in the description above, they have only a descriptive and in no way restrictive purpose. It is intended that other changes, alterations, substitutions and replacements specifically described and illustrated that are equivalent to what is reported herein, are also included within the broad concept of the claims that follow.
