Abstract
A carrier for a compact disc comprising a generally planar, substantially rigid member [(26)] adapted to retain a compact disc [(14)] adjacent a front face of the member and having an openable cover [(24)] with a first part secured to a rear face of the member [(26)] and a second part extending around a spine edge of the member [(26)] and over the front face of the member [(26)] for removably covering the compact disc [(14)], the member [(26)] having lips [(16,18)] beneath which an edge of the second part of the cover [(24)] can be retained to hold the cover [(24)] in a closed position.
Claims15
A carrier for a compact disc comprising a generally planar member of substantially rigid material adapted to retain a compact disc adjacent a front face thereof and an openable cover of flexible material with a first portion secured to a rear face of the member and a second portion extending around a first edge of the member and over the front face of the member for removably covering a compact disc retained on the member, the member being provided with at least one retaining means formed of said substantially rigid material extending substantially parallel to the plane of the member beneath which an edge of the second portion of the cover can be retained.
A carrier as claimed in any preceding claim having two spaced apart retaining means provided at an edge of the member opposite the said first edge.
A carrier as claimed in any preceding claim in which a locally relieved area is provided in the member to facilitate access to the edge of the cover when the cover is retained beneath the retaining means.
A carrier as claimed in any preceding claim in which the retaining means comprises one or more lips, projections or flanges.
A carrier as claimed in any preceding claim in which an upstand is provided around at least part of the peripheral edge of the upper and/or lower faces of the member and is adapted such that two or more identical carriers can be stacked on each other with a spacing between the upper and lower faces of adjacent carriers.
A carrier as claimed in any preceding claim with a CD or DVD retained thereon.
A carrier for a compact disk substantially as hereinbefore described with reference to the accompanying drawings.
