Container for packaging recorded media

A container for packaging a substantially circular recorded medium and a substantially square recorded medium comprising:

• a container top formed of sheet metal drawn to form a substantially planer closed end surrounded by upstanding walls,
• a container bottom formed of sheet metal drawn to produce a multi-level dish having a depth greater in size than a combined height of the circular and square recorded media so as to be capable of accommodating the circular and square recorded media therein, the multi-level dish having integrally formed first and second support surfaces disposed respectively for supporting the circular recorded medium at a first level and for supporting the square recorded medium at a second level vertically spaced above the first level,
• the first support surface including a circular floor surrounded by a sidewall and forming a circular depression capable of accommodating a circular recorded medium at the first level, the floor being formed by drawing in such a way as to provide a radius connecting the sidewall and the floor, the radius being so positioned and sized as to support the edge of a circular recorded medium when seated in the circular depression, the first support surface also including a standoff post formed at the center of the circular floor,
• the second support surface including four right angle notches formed on the sidewall above the circular floor for receiving four corners of the square recorded medium when positioned thereupon, the second support surface also including the top of the standoff post being positioned in the plane of the notches so as to support the center of the square recorded medium when positioned in the notches, and
• the container bottom having four drawn peripheral walls of a size capable of snuggly fitting into the upstanding walls of the container top, the respective walls of the top and bottom being dimensioned such that the planer inside surface of the top, when the container is closed, is positioned in restraining location with respect to the second level to restrain a square recorded medium, when positioned in the dish, in the second level, which in turn restrains a circular recorded medium when positioned in the dish, in the first level.
