ABSTRACT:
This is an improved container having slidable storage cases propelled by a leaf spring into an open position after pushing down on a front catch. The container comprises a front half, a rear half and a handle, each molded from plastic. The front half and the rear half of the container are ultrasonically bonded together rotatably securing the handle between them. The front and the rear half have six case slots. The front half case slots are defined by a central vertical divider extending from the top to the bottom of the front half and three rows of horizontal M-shaped plastic dividers. Each M-shaped divider is essentially a spring with a lip on it at the central point of the M-shaped divider. The lip can be pushed down and snaps back into place. The rear half is divided into six case slots by a central vertical divider extending from the top to the bottom of the rear half and six sets of guide rails. Extending into the rear half from the back of the container are six leaf springs, one for each case slot. A case is inserted into a case slot over the lip of the M-shaped divider and between the guide rails in the rear half. The rear end of the case pushes against the leaf spring causing the leaf spring to coil or become tense and push against the rear of the case. The front lip catches the front end of the case and holds the case in a closed position. To pop the case out of the container, the front lip is pushed down, the leaf spring releases pent-up tension and the case is propelled out of the container into an open position.
