ABSTRACT:
A storage arrangement for storing tape cassettes, eight track tape cartridges and the like, in which a case means is provided having walls defining a storage volume therebetween. A carousel comprising a pair of disc means is rotatably mounted in the storage volume and is supported by the side walls of the case means. The pair of disc means each have a plurality of cartridge holding means for retaining a plurality of the cartridges between the pair of disc means in a preselected array and in separate cartridge holding sections. The pair of disc means are maintained in a spaced apart relationship by a hub means and the disc means and hub means rotate relative to the case means about a horizontal axis. Brake means are provided intermediate the disc means and the case means to provide a predetermined frictional force therebetween. The predetermined frictional force is at least as great as that sufficient to resist rotation of the disc means and hub means about the horizontal axis under the force of gravity for the maximum unsymmetrical load condition of cartridges stored in the cartridge storing sections, but is not as great as that necessary for manual rotation.
