Abstract
A holder for a disk-shaped data carrier comprising a rectangular case and a carrier for the data carrier, which carrier can be moved in a direction of movement with regard to the case through an opening on the front of the case between a closed position where the data charier is completely inside the case and on open position where the data carrier is at least partly outside the case for the removal of the data carrier from the carrier.
Claims26
A holder for a disk-shaped data carrier comprises:—
- a rectangular case with a top and a bottom and in between extending sides and a back, a carrier to hold the data carrier on the top of the carrier, which carrier can be moved in a direction of movement with regard to the case through an opening on the front of the case between a closed position where the data carrier is completely inside the case and an open position where the data carrier is at least partly outside the case for the removal of the data carrier from the carrier;
- first spring mechanisms operating between the case and the carrier for the movement of the carrier at least partly from the closed position to the open position;
- blocking mechanisms for holding the carrier in position in the closed position against the operation of the first spring mechanisms, the blocking mechanisms comprising a first stop edge on the front of the case and a first stop connected to the carrier with second spring mechanisms that in a blocked position of the blocking mechanisms under the influence of the action of the first spring mechanisms is against the first stop edge;
- and
- control mechanisms for the deactivation of the blocking mechanisms against the operation of the second spring mechanisms by moving the first stop so that the carrier in the blocked position of the blocking mechanisms where the first stop after its movement by the blocking mechanisms is free from the first stop edge under the influence of the action of the first spring mechanisms is moved at least partly from the closed position to the open position, the control mechanisms comprising a gripper part for the manual operation of the blocking mechanisms, with the feature that the control mechanisms comprises third spring mechanisms that are connected to the case that have the gripper part for stop against the blocking mechanisms where the blocking mechanisms by stop by the third spring mechanisms from the closed position in an unoperated position of the blocked position during an operated position against the operation of the third spring mechanisms can be put in the unblocked position.
A holder as claimed in any one of the preceding claims wherein the first spring mechanisms comprise a first lip that is an integral part of the case.
A holder as claimed in any one of the preceding claims wherein the holder has end blocking mechanisms to block the further movement of the carrier out of the case in the open position of the carrier.
A holder as claimed in any one of the preceding claims wherein the external dimensions of the case are 142 mm by 124 mm by 10 mm.
A holder as claimed in any one of the preceding claims wherein the blocking mechanisms are only present on the side of one of the two sides of the carrier.
A holder as claimed in any one of the preceding claims wherein the carrier has on the bottom turned on the top first positioning devices for the positioning of a first sheet of paper against the underside.
A holder as claimed in any one of the preceding claims wherein the carrier has on the front a gap to hold a narrow strip of paper.
A holder as claimed in any one of the preceding claims wherein the holder has second positioning mechanisms to position at least a second sheet of paper against the inside of the top.
A holder as claimed in any one of the preceding claims wherein the top of the case on the one hand and the bottom of the case and the carrier on the other hand, are hinged together around an axis located near and parallel to the back of the case.
A holder as claimed in any one of the preceding claims wherein the carrier has on the top a rigid central body for non-clamping extension through a central hole in the data carrier.
A holder according to the invention, as hereinbefore generally described.
A holder as specifically described with reference to or as illustrated in the accompanying drawings.
A holder including any new and inventive integer or combination of integers, substantially as herein described.
