Abstract: A modular storage system utilizes pluralities of mutually orthogonal members removably coupled to one another through cooperative male and female connectors to form a lattice structure with a plurality of receptacles for storing articles such as compact disc (CD) jewel boxes and the like. First members include female connectors having at least one aperture through which are coupled a pair of coaxially-oriented second members extending orthogonal thereto. One of the second members includes a pin which is hollowed out to define an aperture suited for receiving the pin of the other second member such that both second members are coupled to one another as well as to the first member. In addition, the female connectors in the first members include a pair of apertures, with male connectors of the second members including pairs of pins suitable for engaging the apertures in the first members. Each second member is capable of engaging either one or two first members with each male connector by engaging the pair of pins either with the pair of apertures from one first member or one aperture for each of two first members.

Abstract: The present invention is a CD storage module (20) that includes an upper support (24) and a lower support (22) that are interconnectable horizontally and vertically, and individual CD storage cases (40). The CD storage cases (40) are insertable individually into the upper support (24) and the lower support (22). The CD storage case (40) includes a partition (44) and two outer covers (50 and 52). This configuration forms two compartments wherein a CD (62) may be placed in one compartment and an informational pamphlet placed in an opposite compartment. In the preferred embodiment of the present invention, the partition (46) and the outer covers (50 and 52) include bevels (76) for contacting only an outer periphery of a CD (62); the bevels (76) prevent scuffing or otherwise damaging a major surface area of the CD (62) as the CD (62) is being inserted and removed. In addition, the CD storage case (40) includes a CD storage case door (42) hingedly secured to the CD storage case (40). The CD storage case door (42) preferably includes at least one set of pincher forks (58) and pincher fork nubs (60), wherein when the door (42) is rotated from its substantially horizontal position to its substantially vertical position, the CD (62) is partially removed from the compartment to be readily grasped by the user.

Abstract: A display or storage unit used to hold compact or laser disc cases, video or audio tapes or cassettes, or the like. The unit may be made from a number or modular units attached to each other. Each modular unit has a number of openings used to hold cases, tapes or cassettes. The openings may be angled to facilitate holding the cases, tapes, or cassettes in place. Apertures are provided in side portions, back portions, and top or bottom plates of the modular units, which allow the modular units to be attached to each other in order to build different configurations for the display or storage unit, or to be hung on a supporting structure such as a wall. Upright units formed by the modular units may be mounted on bases using bolts to fasten bottom plates of the units to the bases.

Abstract: A space-saving storage rack for compact discs in individual boxes. The rack has two parallel rows of alternately positioned corner brackets and spacers. Each corner bracket in one row has an opposite spacer in the other row and vice versa. The distance between the corner bracket and its opposite spacer is slightly longer than an edge of a compact disc box. The spacers in each row extends horizontally by an offset distance ranging from 10 mm to 25 mm nearer to the other row than the respective adjacent corner brackets. The widths of each spacer and corner bracket are approximately equal to the thickness of a CD box. The rack enables a stack of compact disc boxes to be stored in a vertical position in which each box is held by a corner bracket at one lower corner and a spacer at the other lower corner. The compact disc boxes are stacked in staggered positions to facilitate easy removal of any individual box from the stack, and the compact disc boxes are stacked in contact with each other with no space-wasting partition members in between adjacent boxes.

Abstract translation: 一个节省空间的存储架，用于个别盒子中的光盘。 机架具有两排平行的交替定位的角支架和间隔件。 一排中的每个角支架在另一排中具有相对的间隔件，反之亦然。 角支架与其相对的间隔件之间的距离比光盘盒的边缘稍长。 每行中的间隔件相对于相邻的相邻的角部支架水平延伸10mm至25mm的偏移距离。 每个间隔物和拐角支架的宽度大致等于CD盒的厚度。 机架使一堆光盘盒能够被存放在垂直位置，在垂直位置，每个盒由一个下角的角支架和另一个下角的间隔件保持。 光盘盒堆叠成交错的位置，便于从堆叠中容易地移除任何单独的盒子，并且压缩盘盒彼此堆叠，彼此之间没有空间浪费的分隔构件。

Abstract: A storage and display tower assembly transported and distributed in a compact and disassembled kit form in a box. The components thereof are easily and readily assembled to the configuration selected by the user to provide the desired appearance and use. The shelves, pinch clamps, weighted base and first and second sets of rods of the kit are removed from the box. The rods of the first set are threaded into upright securement to the base; a first shelf is slid through its openings on the rods; the lower ends of the second set of rods are threaded on top of the top ends of the respective rods of the first set with a stabilizing and article display shelf sandwiched and fixed between them; and a second shelf is slid through its openings onto the rods of the second set. Using the support clamps, the first and second shelves are mounted at the desired heights to the first and second sets of rods, respectively. Decorative balls, plates and/or lamps can be attached at the top of the tower thereby defined. The sets of rods can consist of three or five rods. For the five rod embodiment the adjustable shelves can be large to having five openings to engage all five rods or can be smaller having only three openings each for side-by-side or staggered placement. The shelves are adapted to store and display various media including video cassettes and compact disc cases as well as books, plants, knick-knacks and other articles in any number of desirable and convenient arrangements. The numbers, sizes and spacings of the shelves can be adjusted from time to time to store and display different articles and/or to simply provide a different look.
