ABSTRACT:
Within the compact disk case, a continuous inwardly extending slot flange member is employed to form a slot for receiving one side edge of a booklet or other printed material. The slot flange member extends along most of a full side edge length of the case, thereby providing a long, continuous slot. Alternatively, the slot flange member is formed of several portions which collectively form a slot. In one embodiment, inner corners of the slot flange portions each have a circular indentation sized and positioned to avoid interfering and damaging perimeter edges of a compact disk held in the case when the compact disk case is closed. In another embodiment, a front end of a single continuous flange is sloped upwardly to facilitate booklet insertion and removal. The compact disk case also includes an upwardly extending blocking member, along a front edge of the base of the case, having tapered profile. The blocking member prevents the booklet from accidently sliding from the slot formed by the slot flanges. The blocking member is highest at the center of the front edge and decreases in height toward the sides of the case.
