ABSTRACT:
The present invention discloses a compact disk storage tower structure that is associated with a front panel of a computer case to provide convenience in the retrieval of compact disks. The front panel according to the invention includes an opening of which the peripheral rims are equipped with barbed fingers on the back side of the panel to hold a housing in position. The housing has a wide open front, a plurality of curved ledges formed on the internal side walls, a pin hole located away from the ledges and extending from the top of the housing to the bottom, engaging openings well-balancedly provided on exterior walls thereof, and an upper and a lower groove integrally molded to serve as a receptacle for a speaker. The housing accommodates a plurality of compact disk trays each of which has a stepped flange with a holed protrusion on one side end and a thin flexible flat slab angularly extending from the peripheral surface. The compact disk trays are piled up and attached to the housing by individually driving fastening elements into the pin hole through the hole of the protrusion from the top of the housing to the bottom. These trays are locked in position by an engagement of the curved ledge with the thin flexible flat slab.
