ABSTRACT:
A storage rack is described consisting of a base (112), a substantially vertical support rod (116) and a plurality of storage clips (120) rotatably mounted on the rod. Each clip is adapted to retain the corner of a CD-case (14) lying in a predetermined first plane relative thereto and to permit the CD-case so retained to be opened. The clip (120) is arranged so that the retained CD-case (14) and the axis of rotation (150) of the clip about the support rod are so positioned relative to one another that rotation by no more than about 90.degree. is sufficient to remove a CD-case (14') from the stack and enable it to be opened. The clips (120) consist of a support shelf (130), first (122) and second (124) retaining walls which engage the edges of the CD-case and a cantilevered gripping member (118) which grips the hinge region of the case. Rotation by no more than about 90.degree. enables the rack to be used where space is at a premium and also means that the printed matter in a swung-out CD-case (14') runs, from a user's point of view, from left to right, enabling convenient verification that the correct choice has been made.
