ABSTRACT:
A container for holding a cassette that includes a rectangular casing into which a cassette can be directly inserted and stored and a frame-like bottomless slide which is positioned in the casing and selectively operated for moving the cassette into and out of the casing. An hourglass-type spring is positioned between the slide and casing to urge the slide to an upwardly extended cassette-exposing position. A selectively releasable locking mechanism for retaining the slide in a cassette-storing position includes a finger pressure contact indentation formed in the front wall of the slide and double-latch locking projections formed on the front of the slide and casing at opposite sides of the finger pressure contact indentation. Hublock projections formed on the slide engage the hub-openings of a stored cassette only when the slide is in its cassette-storing position. The configuration of the slide and casing is such to provide smooth and easy operation of the container and to ensure continued satisfactory and proper operation by not being highly vulnerable to misalignment, warping and dimensional variations in the component parts. The casing and slide are formed of a single piece of moldable material with all the subcomponents (except the spring) being integrally molded as a part of the casing or slide.
