ABSTRACT:
A storage container for floppy disks is comprised of an open top box-like bottom portion, a support arm and a storage pouch which includes an upper part and a lower part. The support arm is pivotally attached to the opposed side walls of said bottom portion at a point adjacent the back wall thereof. The storage pouch is hingedly attached to the support arm at a position near the center of the upper surface thereof, and is secured by guide projections in the guide slots formed along each said side wall. By this arrangement, the rotational movement about the pivotal connection will cause the stored pouch to rise and in so doing, move forward because of the guide slot engagement. At the forward end of the guide slot, is a downwardly extending dog leg that permits the storage pouch to drop down so as to rest on the floor of the base portion. The lower part of pouch is pivotally attached to the upper part and is held in this condition by a detent arrangement. When in the open condition, the lower part can be disengaged and rotated forward. This places the back wall in an inclined condition which facilitates selection and removal of a floppy disk.
