Benefits of technology

[0003] To solve the above problem, an enclosing casing of the invention is constructed by a combination of an outer casing having an inserting port in one side portion and an inner casing which is inserted and ejected into/from the outer casing through the inserting port, wherein the inner casing is constructed by enclosing medium holders of a plurality of stages which overlap each other so as to be relatively movable. Any one of the enclosing medium holders of the plurality of stages can be enclosed in the outer casing. It is sufficient that the outer casing has such a shape that the enclosing medium holders of the plurality of stages can be collectively enclosed and carried. Although it may have, for example, a shape like a tray, such a shape as to wrap the whole enclosing medium holder is preferable from a viewpoint of protecting the enclosing medium held in the enclosing medium holder against the dust, sunlight, and the like. For example, it is preferable to use a box-shape having such an internal volume that all of the enclosing medium holders hold the enclosing media and can be enclosed in the outer casing so as to overlap each other. The enclosing medium is held in the enclosing medium holder, inserted and ejected into/from the outer casing together with the enclosing medium holder, and relatively moved to the other enclosing medium holders. In order to prevent the enclosing medium from falling from the enclosing medium holder at the time of the insertion/ejection or the relative movement, it is desirable that a restricting portion which can maintain the stable holding of the enclosing medium while restricting a positional deviation of the enclosing medium is provided for the enclosing medium holder. If the positional deviation of the enclosing medium in the enclosing medium holder can be restricted, a rub of the enclosing medium to the enclosing medium holder can be also prevented. The enclosing medium holders of the plurality of stages overlap each other so as to be relatively movable. That is, it is possible to freely develop so as to mutually overlap the enclosing medium holders or reduce the overlap portion. If the enclosing medium holders are pulled out of the outer casing and developed, an overlap area of the enclosing media can be decreased. Thus, the user can see the enclosing media in a lump and recognize a desired one of the plurality of enclosing media at a glance. The enclosing medium locating at a lower stage can be easily taken out since the enclosing medium holder locating at an upper stage and the enclosing medium held therein do not become obstacles. By mutually allowing the enclosing medium holders to overlap each other, plane dimensions can be reduced as compared with those in the developed state. If the enclosing medium holders are enclosed in the outer casing in this state, the plane dimensions of the whole enclosing casing can be decreased. Thus, a storing space can be decreased and when the enclosing casing is carried, it can be easily handled because it has a compact size. Hitherto, the operation in the enclosing casing constructed by the combination of the outer casing and the inner casing is only such an operation that one inner casing is inserted and ejected into/from the outer casing. On the other hand, the invention has such unpredictability and interest that the enclosing medium holders of the plurality of stages constructing the inner casing are relatively moved and causes the user to be interested in it. Each of the outer casing and the inner casing is formed by folding a paper material. It is an essence that the paper material is paper as a main material. The paper material is not limited to a material which is manufactured from vegetable fiber or other fiber. Naturally, it is possible to use a paper material which is manufactured by mixing one or more kinds of a mechanical pulp and a chemical pulp which are manufactured from a conifer or a broad-leaved tree and an wastepaper pulp which is obtained by recycling newspaper, wastepaper, and the like. Synthetic paper manufactured by using a synthetic high molecular substance may be used. It is also possible to use any one of a corrugated cardboard, a material in which one or both of the surfaces are made of nonwoven fabrics, a material in which one or both of the surfaces are coated with an electrostatic inhibitor, and a material in which a thermoplastic resin layer has been laminated onto one or both of the surfaces. When the enclosing medium holders of a plurality of stages are inserted and ejected into/from the outer casing, if they are reciprocatively moved in almost the same direction, each enclosing medium holder can be individually inserted and ejected into/

Embodiment Construction

[0020] An embodiment of the invention will be described hereinbelow with reference to the drawings. In the following embodiment, a disk-shaped recording medium is mentioned as an example of enclosing media and explanation will be made. FIG. 3 shows an external plan view of an enclosing casing 1 according to the embodiment of the invention. FIG. 4 shows aback side diagram of FIG. 3. FIG. 1 is a perspective view showing the state where enclosing medium holders 2a, 2b, and 2c have been pulled out of an outer casing 3 in the enclosing casing 1. An inner casing 2 is constructed by the enclosing medium holders 2a, 2b, and 2c of a plurality of stages. FIG. 2 shows the state where the enclosing medium holders 2b and 2c have been overlaid to the enclosing medium holder 2a and only an enclosing medium holding region of the enclosing medium holder 2a is exposed to the outside of the outer casing 3. Each of the enclosing medium holders 2a, 2b, and 2c and the outer casing 3 is obtained by a meth...

Abstract

An enclosing casing which enables enclosing media to be seen at a glance among a plurality of enclosing media held in enclosing medium holders of an inner casing is provided. An enclosing casing 1 is constructed by a combination of an outer casing 3 which has an inserting port 4 in one side portion and is formed by folding a paper material and an inner casing 2 which is inserted and ejected into/from the outer casing 3 through the inserting port 4 and is formed by folding the paper material. The inner casing 2 is constructed by enclosing medium holders 2a, 2b, and 2c of a plurality of stages which overlap so as to be relatively movable. All of the enclosing medium holders 2a, 2b, and 2c of the plurality of stages are reciprocatively moved in almost the same direction when they are inserted and ejected into/from the outer casing 3.

Description

TECHNICAL FIELD [0001] The invention relates to an enclosing casing constructed by a combination of an outer casing and an inner casing which is inserted and ejected into / from the outer casing. More particularly, the invention relates to an enclosing casing in which an inner casing is constructed by enclosing medium holders of a plurality of stages which overlap each other so as to be relatively movable, thereby enabling an enclosing medium held in each enclosing medium holder to be easily and selectively taken out. BACKGROUND ART [0002] Hitherto, there has been an enclosing casing formed by folding a paper material for the purpose of realizing the preservation of the environment, cost reduction, and the like. In such an enclosing casing, the casing having only one enclosing space is a main stream. For example, if a plurality of disk-shaped recording media are overlaid and enclosed, there is a risk that a recording portion or a print surface is damaged due to a mutual rub. Therefore...
