ABSTRACT:
The present invention relates to a compact disk enclosure having an improved mounting hub for engaging a centralized hole in a compact disk. The hub may be molded directly onto base for securing the disk thereon, or alternatively, the hub may be molded into a tray which is adapted to be inserted and secured to the base portion of the enclosure. In a preferred embodiment, the hub engages substantially an entire circumference of the centralized disk hole. The hub structure generally includes cylindrical wall extending upward from a base portion of the enclosure. A plurality of radial slits extend radially outward from a center of the cylindrical wall for dividing the cylindrical wall into gripping teeth for engaging the centralized disk hole.
