ABSTRACT:
A cassette holder has multiple compartments; each compartment has a leaf spring for urging a cassette into one or the other of two stable positions. The first stable position, a cassette stored position, has the spring bearing on top of a cassette and forcing the cassette tightly against the bottom of a compartment. The second position, a cassette removal position, has the spring bearing against the upper back wall of a cassette to maintain the cassette canted with an upper corner protruding from the compartment for ease of grasping by a user. A pivot at the junction of a pocket and an upper section of the back wall of each compartment rotates a cassette to the removal position upon the application of finger pressure on the bottom of the cassette. A second pivot in the form of a foot at the entrance of each cassette causes the cassettes to pivot out of the compartment on being pulled and prevents a cassette from being pulled directly out of a compartment. Interlocking tenon and mortises permits modular buildup of several holders.
