Abstract
A single sheet of non-woven material is provided with sufficient strength and durability to store two compact discs without the necessity of laminating or otherwise interconnecting the non-woven sheet to a backing sheet or other materials for strength. The single sheet of non-woven material is positioned between the playing surfaces of the two compact discs to provide a non-scratching, protective surface and to reduce the costs associated with manufacturing the sleeves used to store the CDS.

A double-sided storage sleeve for holding a first compact disc in a first pocket and a second compact disc in a second pocket, said compact disc having an edge, an aperture and a playing surface for storing information, comprising:
- a flexible first sheet having a top edge, a bottom edge and two side edges;
- a flexible third sheet having a top edge, a bottom edge and two side edges;
- a flexible, non-woven, non-laminated second sheet having a top edge, a bottom edge and two side edges, said non-woven second sheet being positioned between said first sheet and said third sheet and comprising a spun-bonded, continuous polypropylene fiber with a random fiber orientation;
- and
- said first sheet, said non-woven second sheet and said third sheet interconnected together on at least said bottom edge and said two side edges to form said first pocket and said second pocket, wherein when said first compact disc and said second compact disc are positioned in said first and said second pockets, respectively, the playing surface of each of the compact discs are in contact with said flexible, non-woven, non-laminated second sheet.
A double-sided storage sleeve adapted for holding a first compact disc in a first pocket and a second compact disc in a second pocket, the compact disc having an edge, a central aperture and a playing surface for storing information, comprising:
- a flexible first sheet having a top edge, a bottom edge and two side edges;
- a flexible third sheet having a top edge, a bottom edge and two side edges;
- a flexible, non-laminated, non-woven second sheet comprised of a spun-bonded continuous polypropylene fiber laid down in a randomly oriented pattern and having a top edge, a bottom edge and two side edges, said non-woven second sheet sandwiched between said first sheet and said third sheet;
- and
- said first sheet, said non-woven second sheet and said third sheet interconnected together on at least said bottom edge and said side edges to form said first pocket and said second pocket, wherein when the first compact disc and the second compact disc are positioned in said first and said second pockets, respectively, the playing surface of each of the compact discs are in contact with said non-woven second sheet.
A compact disc storage sheet adapted for holding a plurality of compact discs on a first side and an equal number of compact discs on an opposing side, comprising:
- a flexible first sheet having a top edge, a bottom edge and two side edges;
- a flexible third sheet having a top edge, a bottom edge and two side edges;
- a flexible, non-laminated, non-woven second sheet comprised of a spun-bonded continuous polypropylene fiber positioned in a randomly oriented manner and having a top edge, a bottom edge and two side edges, said non-woven second sheet sandwiched between said first sheet and said third sheet;
- and
- said flexible first sheet, said flexible, non-laminated, non-woven second sheet and said flexible third sheet interconnected together on at least said bottom edge, said side edges and at a lateral position substantially between said top edge and said bottom edge, wherein at least two front pockets are formed on a first side of said storage sheet and at least two rear pockets are formed on a rear side of said storage sheet for holding the plurality of compact discs.
