摘要： A workcenter or desk including: (1) a first horizontal surface for supporting a computer monitor, (2) a first pair of parallel, spaced, vertically extending sidewalls connected to the bottom of the first horizontal surface, (3) a shelf connected between the first pair of sidewalls below the first horizontal surface; and (4) a second horizontal surface located below the first horizontal surface and above the shelf and having an aperture therethrough. The second horizontal surface is unitarily formed to provide a portion of the second horizontal surface in front of the aperture. The first pair of sidewalls extend through the second horizontal surface aperture. The shelf is positioned such that a CPU is supported thereon and extends through the second horizontal surface aperture toward the first horizontal surface.

摘要： A high capacity motorized rack holds a plurality of jewel case enclosed CDs in holders flexibly inter-connectable with each other to form a rotatable continuous loop. The loop is rotatably retained within a vertical rack housing and is driven by a motor, disposed within the housing, under user control such that the loop is rotated until a desired CD is moved to the top region of the belt. A rack may hold two or more such loops of inter-connected holders. In one embodiment a holder retains a single jewel case, and comprises two independent loops that are rotated with a single motor. A lamp and/or barcode scanner may be disposed on the housing for ease of CD selection. The housing base preferably is detached during shipping to permit transporting the rack in a smaller volume container. User control can include voice commands to direct loop rotation and speed.

摘要： A motorized rack for holding the jewel cases or containers of CDs (or the CDs themselves) in a very compact manner includes a continuous loop formed of holders for the CD cases or other retainers which is driven by a pair of sprockets on which the holders are mounted for rotation. High density storage is provided by spacing the holders and their associated CD containers contiguously to one another and then removal is facilitated by allowing the holders and containers to fan out at the top the vertical tower for manual removal.

摘要： A rack for stacking flat articles, in particular cases for CDs and other disc-type information carriers, has a stand part and a base part. The stand part is provided with substantially horizontally aligned compartments for accommodating the flat articles. The base part is formed by a base plate which can be connected with the stand part and the base area of which is larger than the projection of the stand part on the base plate. The base plate can be removed for packing purposes, and is divided into base plate parts which are of such a size that at least in one transverse dimension they do not project over the width of the stand part. Accordingly, the cross-section of packaging for the entire rack does not exceed, or exceeds only to an insignificant extent, the cross-section of the stand part. With uniform length and uniform cross-sectional shape, the packaging can be stacked very satisfactorily and can thus be conveyed in large bundles, for example on pallets shrink-wrapped in film or in suitable pallet containers.

摘要： A container for storing disc-like storage media is disclosed. The container for storing disc-like storage media includes a back cover and a turntable. The back cover has a front opening. The turntable has a substantially planar front side and a fan-shaped back side. The fan-shaped back side includes multiple storage grooves radially distributed around the fan-shaped back side. Each of the storage grooves is capable of receiving a substantially planar storage medium. The turntable is rotatable from a concealed position in which the fan-shaped back side is concealed within the back cover to an exposed position in which the fan-shaped back side is at least partially extends outside of the back cover.
