Benefits of technology

[0009] The present invention has been accomplished under the circumstances in view. It is therefore the main object of the present invention to provide a loose-leaf type storage apparatus, which holds the storage items firmly in place, protecting the storage items against scratching. It is another object of the present invention to provide a loose-leaf type storage apparatus, which keeps the storage items in an enclosed space against dust. It is still another object of the present invention to provide a loose-leaf type storage apparatus, which is easy and inexpensive to manufacture. It is still another object of the present invention to provide a loose-leaf type storage apparatus, which is durable in use and connectable to a ring binder.

Problems solved by technology

Because each pocket of the loose-leaf type storage apparatus A is not sealable, the storage item tends to be covered with dust.
When used with a ring binder, the periphery of each mounting through hole A3 may easily be torn, thereby causing the loose-leaf type storage apparatus A to fall from the ring binder.
The fabrication of the sheet of non-woven fabric A1 and the bonding of the plastic cover flaps A2 to the non-woven fabric A1 are complicated, resulting in high manufacturing cost.

Embodiment Construction

[0019] In FIG. 1, a loose-leaf type storage apparatus 1 is shown according to one embodiment of the present invention. The loose-leaf type storage apparatus 1 comprises two symmetrical shells 12, and a hinge 11 connected between the shells 12 for enabling the shells 12 to be turned relative to each other between a close position and an open position. The shells 12 each define a flat receiving space 121 adapted to accommodate a CD (compact disk) 2 or the like, and a retainer 122 disposed at the center of the receiving space 121 and adapted to hold a CD 2 or the like in the receiving space 121. One of the shells 12 has a narrow elongated mounting strip 13 extended along one peripheral side opposite to the hinge 11, and a plurality of mounting through holes 131 formed in the narrow elongated mounting strip 13 and arranged in a line. The loose-leaf type storage apparatus 1 further comprises a locking device formed of a male locking element, for example, a retaining flange 123, and a fem...

Abstract

A loose-leaf type storage apparatus formed of two hinged shells each having a flat receiving space for receiving a disk-like storage item and a retainer for securing the loaded disk-like storage to the flat receiving space, one shell having a mounting strip with mounting through holes extended from the periphery for fastening to a ring binder.

Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION [0001] 1. Field of the Invention [0002] The present invention relates to a storage apparatus for storing compact disks or the like and more particularly, to a loose-leaf type storage apparatus, which keeps the storage items in place and against outside dust, and is connectable to a ring binder. [0003] 2. Description of the Related Art [0004] Following fast development of lasers and infrared technology, a variety of compact data storage media such as CDs (compact disks), VCDs (video compact disks), CD-R, CD-RW, and etc. have been developed and intensively used for storing digital data. In order to keep digital data storage disks in place, data storage cases or racks may be used. Further, there is known a loose-leaf type storage apparatus for storing data storage media. According to this design, as shown in FIGS. 7 and 8, the loose-leaf type storage apparatus A comprises a sheet of non-woven fabric A1 and two plastic cover flaps A2 respectively peripherally...
