ABSTRACT:
A storage container for floppy disks and the like includes a cover member pivotally attached to a base member. The base member includes a floor that has a plurality of guide slots which accept dividers so as to permit organizational classification and to facilitate identification and recovery. The base member includes upwardly extending front, rear and side walls. A finger grip is formed in both the front and rear walls. Along the outboard edge of each side wall is a downwardly extending skirt that runs from the front wall to a point near the rear wall. The cover member may be pivoted through an arc of about 90 degrees which provides easy access to the disk stored inside. The rear edge of each skirt provides a cover stop against which the bottom edge of the rear wall of said cover member rests when the cover is in the fully opened condition. This prevents the cover member from opening further. The stops are located so that the cover will remain open but will not provide a significant unbalanced force which would cause an undue backward tilt to said base member when the cover is in the open condition. The storage container may also be moved in the open condition without the cover member rotating backward which would tend to flip the container out of the operator's hand. A locking arrangement is optional, and when equipped, the lock is installed in the downwardly extending front wall of the cover member. A locking aperture is provided in the top surface of the finger grip formed in the front wall of said base member.
