Benefits of technology

[0007]Within this aim, an object of the invention is to provide a container in which the central retention means do not produce forcing in the coupling region, consequently preventing the possibility of damaging the disc.
[0009]Still another object of the present invention is to provide a container for a disc and the like with means for disengageable retention of the disc which can be obtained easily starting from commonly commercially available elements and materials and is also competitive from a merely economical standpoint.

Problems solved by technology

In these embodiments there are inevitably considerable constructive complications in order to achieve release with a pushbutton actuation, since it is necessary to provide a number of elements which in practice lift the disc in order to disengage it from the central retention means.
These embodiments, therefore, are normally considerably complicated and further are subject to yielding due to wear, which leads in a relatively short time to ineffectiveness of the retention of the disc.

Embodiment Construction

[0019]With reference to the figures, the container for a disc and the like, with means for disengageable retention of the disc, generally designated by the reference numeral 1, comprises a containment body 2, which advantageously can have the traditional tray-like shape and defines internally at least one recess 3 in which it is possible to accommodate a disc, generally designated by the reference numeral 4 and constituted for example by a CD, a DVD or equivalent media; the recess 3, in the illustrated example, is arranged in a recessed region 8, which has an oval shape; of course, the recessed region might have another shape or might not be present.

[0020]The recess 3 defines peripheral contact regions for the disc, which are constituted for example by a peripheral abutment rim 10 arranged substantially circumferentially, and by a central protrusion 11, arranged at the central retention means, generally designated by the reference numeral 20 and constituted by a hub element of a per...

Abstract

A container for a disc, with elements for disengageable retention of the disc, comprising a containment body which has at least one recess which defines a region for accommodating the disc and contact regions for the disc, elements for central retention of the disc being further provided, the central retention elements being supported by a portion which can oscillate with respect to a bottom of the recess for the disengagement of the central retention elements from the disc with a pushbutton actuation on the central retention elements.

Description

[0001]The present invention relates to a container for a disc and the like with means for disengageable retention of the disc.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0002]As is known, the containers used typically for discs, such as CDs, DVDs and other similar optically- or magnetically-readable discs, are constituted generally by a tray, generally made of plastics, defining internally a recess which accommodates the disc, which is retained in position by means of elastically flexible elements which engage the central hole of the disc or its peripheral region.[0003]In containers with means for retention in the central hole, solutions have already been provided which allow to release the disc automatically by acting in a pushbutton fashion on the element that retains the disc in the central region.[0004]In these embodiments there are inevitably considerable constructive complications in order to achieve release with a pushbutton actuation, since it is necessary to provide a number of elements wh...
