ABSTRACT:
A device for attachment to the roof of vehicle for holding tape cassette boxes. The device consists of a base and plurality of arms attached to the base in rows. Each said arm has a resiliently deformable portion situated at an angle to the base member. The resilient portion and the base member form cooperative box engaging surfaces. A lip is situated at the end of the resilient portion and has a surface angled away from the plane of the resilient portion toward the base member. An elongated notch is situated between the lip surface and the resilient portion and has its major axis parallel to the plane of said base member surface. When two corner edges of one end said box are placed into contact with said box engaging surfaces formed by one of the arms and the base, and the box is pressed in a direction toward the arm, a third corner edge of the box will initially contact the lip surface at a point spaced from the notch and continuing pressure on the box will cause the resilient portion to be deformed to allow the third corner edge of the box to slide along the surface and snap into the notch, to hold the box in place.
