An optical disc case assembly is provided, which can cope with a by-robot manufacturing process of optical disc loading such that in the stage of manufacture it horizontally holds the optical disc, that in the stage of use by the user it permits rocking of the optical disc in response to opening and closing of the lid, and that in both the stages of manufacture and use by the user it permits reliable prevention of detachment or fall of the optical disc. A disc holder 3 which can detachably hold the edge of an optical disc 2, is movable relative to engagement members 10, in which the stem of the disc holder is mounted. With the disc holder at a position brought to by displacement toward the stem side, the front side part of the disc holder is spaced apart from a hook member 9 for vertical rocking with flexibility in response to opening and closing of the lid 7 such as rising to an obliquely tilted state. With the disc holder at a position brought to by displacement toward the front side, the front side part of the disc holder is held by hook members provided on the bottom surface of the disc case.
An optical disc case assembly comprising a disc case having a lid capable of being opened and closed and a disc holder having a stem mounted in an engaging part in the disc case and a front side part for detachably holding the edge of an optical disc, wherein the stem of the disc holder is capable of being displaced relative to the engaging part in the disc case, with the disc holder at a position brought to by displacement toward the stem side part of the disc holder is released and spaced apart from a hook part provided on the bottom surface of the disc case so as to be vertically rocked with flexibility in response to opening and closing of the lid such as to be raised to an obliquely upwardly tilted state, and with the disc holder at a position brought to by displacement toward the front side part of the disc holder is hooked by the hook part and held on the bottom surface of the disc case.
An optical disc case assembly comprising a disc case having a lid capable of being opened and closed and a disc holder having a stem mounted in an engaging part in the disc case and a front side part for detachably holding the edge of an optical disc, wherein the disc holder includes a disc support for supporting the bottom edge of the optical disc, a wall member to be in contact with the edge of the optical disc for preventing detachment of the optical disc in horizontal directions and a hook part protruding from the wall member such as to prevent upward detachment of the accommodated optical disc, the stem of the disc holder is capable of being displaced relative to the engaging part in the disc case, with the disc holder at a position brought to by displacement toward the stem side part of the disc holder is released and spaced apart from a hook part provided on the bottom surface of the disc case so as to be vertically rocked with flexibility in response to opening and closing of the lid such as to be raised to an obliquely upwardly tilted state, and with the disc holder at a position brought to by displacement toward the front side part of the disc holder is hooked by the hook part and held on the bottom surface of the disc case.
