Abstract

L'invention concerne un dispositif permettant de fixer une boîte de disque compact sur une paroi ou sur une autre surface. La boîte est maintenue fermement dans une zone de fixation, à l'intérieur du dispositif, au moyen d'éléments de retenue opposés prévus au sommet et à la base du dispositif. Ce système permet à l'utilisateur de voir toute la partie frontale du disque compact lorsque celui-ci est monté dans le dispositif, et, au besoin, de sortir le disque de sa boîte et de l'y remettre. Ce dispositif s'utilise individuellement ou peut être assemblé à d'autres dispositifs similaires à l'aide de connecteurs juxtaposables.
