ABSTRACT:
A bracket is provided for supporting a conventional case for a Compact Disk. The bracket mounts against a flat surface such as a wall and holds the case so that the artwork on the case cover is visible. The bracket has a base and a pair of arms on opposite sides of the base that extend away from the mounting surface. Each arm has a lip extending toward the opposing arm to clamp one portion of the case. A first lip clamps the case on a portion of the case's top surface proximate a hinged case end, while a second lip clamps on a small flange on the side of the case opposite its hinged end. The first lip has a low profile allowing the case cover to be fully opened to access the Compact Disk therein, without removing the case from the bracket. The second lip has a sloping top surface that contacts the flange of the case during insertion of the case into the bracket. Insertion pressure of the case flange against the sloping surface forces the second lip to temporarily flex away from the case permitting the case to snap into place under the second lip.
