ABSTRACT:
A shipping, storage and handling device for commercial magnetic tape furnished by the manufacturer as windings convoluted about the periphery of flat annular cores or spools, comprising a unit, such units being referred to as "pancakes" in the trade. The device comprises a flat annular base portion having a plurality of upstanding pins and a like plurality of through openings, the pins and openings being symmetrically arranged about a common concentric circle so that, upon vertical stacking of the devices, the pins of each lower device will be received within the openings of the next successive device. The upstanding pins extend through complementary openings provided in each tape winding support core or spool to locate the "pancakes" coaxially and in face-to-face engagement upon respective devices for individual support thereupon, the lengths of the pins being such as to extend just beyond the upper surface of a supported "pancake" to provide for interlocking engagement with the through openings of the next successive device, thereby preventing relative side-slipping of the thus stored "pancakes" while at the same time allowing for their removal, one at a time, for combinative use with their respective supporting devices.
