Opfindelsen angår en EDB - disketteholder, som omfatter en lomme med en bagvæg, en forvæg, to sidevægge og eventuelt en bundvæg, hvor sidevæggene har en største bredde svarende til diskettens tykkelse, hvor lommens forvæg og/eller 5 bagvæg er af stift, elastisk eftergiveligt materiale, såsom af tynd plastplade, og hvor der udgående fra mindst en af lommens vægge er udformet mindst en hul tap, som rager ind i lommen.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The invention relates to a computerized floppy disk holder comprising a pocket with a back wall, a front wall, two side walls and optionally a bottom wall, the side walls having a greatest width corresponding to the thickness of the floppy disk, where the front wall of the pocket and / or 5 material such as a thin plastic sheet, and from which at least one of the walls of the pocket is formed at least one hollow tab protruding into the pocket.
Fra USA patexxtskrift nr. 4 691 826 kendes en sådan 10 holder, der er udformet med tappe, som rager ind i lommen. Disse tappe tjener til at vippe disketten ud af lommen, således at den går fri af lommens topvæg, der ellers effektivt hindrer at disketten falder ud, når lommens bund vendes i vejret.From United States Patent Publication No. 4,691,826, such a holder is known, which is designed with pins that protrude into the pocket. These pins serve to flip the floppy disk out of the pocket so that it is free of the top wall of the pocket, which otherwise effectively prevents the floppy from falling out when the bottom of the pocket is flipped.
15 Fra EP offentliggørelsesskrift nr. 0 414 306 kendes placering af en radialt elastisk tap ud for et hul i en musikdiskette i en holder. Disketten kan dog ikke sættes fast på tappen uden at holderens låg først er åbnet.15 From EP Publication No. 0 414 306, the location of a radially elastic tap next to a hole in a music diskette in a holder is known. However, the floppy disk cannot be attached to the tab without the lid of the holder first being opened.
Det er den foreliggende opfindelses formål at 20 tilvejebringe en EDB-disketteholder af den indledningsvis angivne art, som er mere velegnet end de hidtil kendte til at holde EDB-disketter på plads, samtidig med at holderlommens udtagningsåbning forbliver åben, og uden at et låg på lommen skal åbnes, hver gang en diskette skal indsættes eller 25 udtages.It is an object of the present invention to provide a computerized floppy disk holder of the kind initially provided, which is more suitable than the hitherto known to hold the computerized floppy disks while keeping the retention pocket of the holder pocket open and without having a lid of the pocket must be opened each time a floppy disk is inserted or 25 removed.
Dette opnås ved holderen ifølge opfindelsen, som er ejendommelig ved, at plastpladen er af deformerbar art, såsom af sprød og ved knusning deformerbar polystyren eller af hård PVC eller af elastisk deformerbar polypropylen, at tappen er 30 helt eller delvist kegleformet, at den hule taps inde i lommen beliggende ende har en sådan reduceret godstykkelse, at den ved en vis forud fastlagt trykpåvirkning lokalt ved sin yderste ende får en efter trykpåvirkningen afpasset deformation, der er plastisk med revnedannelser ved sprøde 35 plaster og er elastisk ved de elastisk deformerbare plaster.This is achieved by the holder according to the invention, which is characterized in that the plastic plate is of deformable kind, such as of brittle and crushable deformable polystyrene or of hard PVC or of elastically deformable polypropylene, that the pin is fully or partially conical, that the hollow taper inside the pocket has a reduced thickness such that, at a certain predetermined pressure effect, at its outer end, a deformation adapted to the pressure effect is plastic, which is cracked with brittle plastics and is elastic at the elastically deformable plastics.
Udformningen og materialevalget for den nævnte tap i holderens lomme bevirker dels, at disketten er let at DK 170768 B1 2 indskyde i lommen, og dels at den i lommen isatte diskette forbliver på plads, selv om lommen hovedvendes. Dette skyldes formentlig at tappens yderste ende af reduceret godstykkelse let giver efter og tillader diskettens indskydning i lommen 5 uden at tappens yderste ende mister sin evne til at gå i fastholdende og formsluttende indgreb med en dertil beregnet fordybning eller et hul i disketten til fastholdelse af disketten i lommen.The design and material selection for the said tab in the holder's pocket causes partly that the floppy disk is easy to insert into the pocket, and partly that the floppy disk inserted in the pocket remains in place, even if the pocket is turned in the head. This is probably because the outermost end of the reduced thickness of the tab readily yields and permits the insertion of the floppy into the pocket 5 without losing the outermost end of the tab to hold and formally engage with a dedicated recess or hole in the floppy disk to hold the floppy disk. in the pocket.
Hvor der som deformerbart materiale vælges sprød 10 plast, sker der, når tappen springer ind i et hul eller en fordybning i disketten, en lokal plastisk deformation af tappens sprøde spids ledsaget af en svag revnedannelse, der kan iagtages som en lokal opalisering, hvis eksempelvis plasten var klar, og som en lysere spidszone ved f.eks.Where brittle plastic is selected as deformable material, when the tab bursts into a hole or recess in the floppy disk, a local plastic deformation of the brittle tip of the tab is accompanied by a slight cracking which can be observed as a local opalization, for example. the plastic was clear and as a lighter tip zone at e.g.
15 farvet plast. Dette indgreb afpasser sig formsluttende efter nævnte hul eller fordybning, således at disketten ved endog ringe trykpåvirkning mellem tap og diskette fastholdes ret kraftigt. Dette har betydning, hvor holderen anvendes til lager og forsendelsesemballage for disketten, hvor kraftig 20 fastholdelse behøves. Hår disketten fjernes første gang fra en holder af denne art, bliver tappen yderligere deformeret, således at fastholdelsesgraden mindskes næste gang disketten sættes i holderen. Denne egenskab er praktisk set fra disketteleverandørens side, fordi tappens deformationsgrad 25 kan afsløre, om disketten har været udtaget af holderen, men også praktisk set fra brugerens side, idet fastholdelsen kun skal hindre disketten i at falde ud, når holderen hovedvendes. Ved valg af sprød plast opnås altså to forskellige fastholdelsesgrader, hvorimod der ved valg af elastisk 30 deformerbar plast kun opnås een fastholdelsesgrad. Til gengæld bevirker den reducerede godstykkelse i tapenden her, at den hvælvede eller kegleformede yderste tapende let springer tilbage eller ind i tappens hule indre ved trykpåvirkning, d.v.s. under diskettens indføring i lommen, og at 35 tapenden igen springer ud, når den befinder sig ud for et hul i disketten, til fastholdelsesindgreb hermed.15 colored plastic. This engagement conforms form-wise to the said hole or recess, so that the floppy is retained fairly strongly even with little pressure between the tab and the floppy. This is important where the holder is used for storage and shipping packaging for the floppy disk, where strong retention is needed. When the floppy disk is first removed from a holder of this kind, the tab is further deformed, so that the degree of retention decreases the next time the floppy is inserted into the holder. This feature is practically on the part of the floppy provider, because the deformation degree of the pin 25 can reveal whether the floppy has been removed from the holder, but also practically on the user's side, since the retention should only prevent the flock from falling out when the holder is turned. Thus, when choosing brittle plastic, two different degrees of retention are obtained, whereas when selecting elastically deformable plastics only one degree of retention is obtained. In contrast, the reduced thickness of the tape end here causes the vaulted or cone-shaped outer tapering to easily bounce back or into the hollow interior of the pin by pressure, i.e. during insertion of the floppy disk into the pocket, and the tap end again pops out when it is facing a hole in the floppy disk for retaining engagement therewith.
Opfindelsen vil i det følgende blive nærmere DK 170768 B1 3 forklaret 1 forbindelse med nogle udførelsesformer og under henvisning til tegningen, hvor fig. 1 viser en holder til en enkelt diskette, fig. 2 et længdesnit gennem lommen og en af dennes tappe, 5 fig. 3 et længdesnit gennem en anden lommeform, fig. 4 et snit gennem en lommes tap og en disketteåbning i indgreb hermed, og fig. 5-8 forskellige tapformer.The invention will be explained in greater detail below with reference to some embodiments and with reference to the drawing, in which fig. 1 shows a holder for a single floppy disk; FIG. 2 is a longitudinal section through the pocket and one of its pins; FIG. 3 is a longitudinal section through another pocket shape; FIG. 4 is a section through a pocket of a pocket and a floppy disk engaging therewith; and FIG. 5-8 different tap shapes.
Fig. 1 viser en holder til en enkelt diskette, 10 hvilken holder omfatte}” en lomme med en bagvæg 2, en forvæg 4, to sidevægge 6 og en bundvæg 8, hvor sidevæggene 6 har en bredde 10 svarende til diskettens tykkelse. Lommens bagvæg 2 og/eller forvæg 4 er af stift, elastisk eftergiveligt materiale, såsom plastplade, og i det viste eksempel er to 15 tappe 12 anbragt ragende ind i lommen fra dennes bagvæg 2. Tappene 12 kan være helt eller delvist kegleformede, og i det viste eksempel er hver tap kegleformet med afrundet spids. Tappenes 12 længde 14 er kortere end det halve af en sidevægs 6 bredde 10, d.v.s. at tappen i lommen rager mindre end 20 halvdelen af dennes indvendige bredde ind i lommen.FIG. 1 shows a holder for a single floppy disk 10, which holder comprises a pocket having a back wall 2, a front wall 4, two side walls 6 and a bottom wall 8, the side walls 6 having a width 10 corresponding to the thickness of the floppy disk. The back wall 2 and / or the front wall 4 of the pocket are of rigid, resilient resilient material, such as a plastic plate, and in the example shown, two 15 pins 12 are projected into the pocket of the back wall 2. The pins 12 may be fully or partially cone shaped and In the example shown, each tap is cone-shaped with a rounded tip. The length 14 of the tabs 12 is shorter than half the width 10 of a sidewall 6, i.e. that the pin in the pocket projects less than 20 half of its internal width into the pocket.
Det i fig. 1 og 2 viste lommemodul er udformet ved en vacuumformeoperation af en tynd plastplade 16, således at lommens bagvæg 2 indvendigt har en glat overflade, og hver tap 12 bliver udpresset af selve vægmaterialet.The FIG. 1 and 2, the pocket module shown is formed by a vacuum molding operation of a thin plastic sheet 16 such that the inside wall of the pocket 2 has a smooth surface and each tab 12 is extruded by the wall material itself.
25 Derved bliver hver tap 12 hul, og ved en særlig vacuumformeteknik kan om ønsket tappens 12 yderete ende få mindre godstykkelse end den øvrige del af tappen. Sidstnævnte kan være hensigtsmæssigt, hvor tappen ønskes udformet til selv at tilpasse sig en fordybning eller en åbning i den 30 diskette, som isættes lommen. Den mindre godstykkelse bevirker, at tappens ende lettere deformeres og går i indgreb med fordybninger og åbninger.In this way, each pin 12 becomes hollow and, by a special vacuum forming technique, the outer end of the pin 12 can, if desired, have less thickness than the other part of the pin. The latter may be convenient where the pin is desired to be designed to adapt itself to a recess or opening in the disk inserted into the pocket. The smaller thickness makes the end of the pin more easily deformed and engages with recesses and openings.
Mår tappene 12 er placeret vilkårligt i lommen på dennes bagvæg 2, forvæg 4 eller sidevægge 6, og en diskette 35 føres ind i lommen, går en eller flere af tappene 12 i indgreb med disketten, når de rammer en fordybning eller en åbning heri. Disketten behøver da ikke føres dybere ned i DK 170768 B1 4 lommen, da tappen eller tappene 12 nok skal holde disketten på plads deri.If the tabs 12 are arbitrarily placed in the pocket of their back wall 2, front wall 4 or side walls 6, and a floppy 35 is inserted into the pocket, one or more of the tabs 12 engages the floppy as they strike a recess or opening therein. The floppy disk then need not be lowered deeper into the pocket, as the tab or tabs 12 should probably hold the floppy disk in place therein.
Fælles for alle lommerne er, at disketterne sættes fast 1 lommerne mellem deres for- og bagvæg og fastholdes dér 5 ved hjælp af en eller flere udragende tappe 12. Når det drejer sig om standardiserede disketter, vil det være hensigtsmæssigt, at hver tap placeres i lommen ud for et hul eller en fordybning for en sådan i lommen indsat diskette. Ved som vist i fig. 1 og 2 at placere tappene 12 nær lommens 10 bund 8, kan det da sikres, at en heri isat diskette er næsten helt nede ved lommens blind, før den går i indgreb med tappene 12, hvis diskettens åbninger er beliggende tæt ved den diskettekant, som ønskes placeret ved lommens bund 8.Common to all the pockets is that the floppy disks are fastened to 1 the pockets between their front and back walls and 5 are held there by one or more protruding pins 12. In the case of standardized floppy disks, it is advisable that each tab be placed in the pocket next to a hole or recess for such a disk inserted in the pocket. As shown in FIG. 1 and 2 to place the pins 12 near the bottom 8 of the pocket 10, it can then be ensured that a floppy disk inserted therein is almost completely down by the blind of the pocket before it engages the pins 12 if the disc openings are located close to the disk edge, which is desired to be placed at the bottom of the pocket 8.
Fig. 3 viser en anden lommeform, som er beregnet 15 til at klæbes på en eftergivelig bæreplade, såsom en side i et fotoalbum. Lommens bagvæg 2 bærer da hele lommen via sidevæggene 6 og bundvæggen 8.FIG. 3 shows another pocket shape which is intended to be adhered to a resilient carrier plate, such as a page in a photo album. The back wall 2 of the pocket then carries the entire pocket via the side walls 6 and the bottom wall 8.
I fig. 4 ses en tap 12 i indgreb med en åbning i en diskette, som er indsat i en lomme. Som det ses, rager tappen 20 12 ind i lommen med længden 14 og videre ind i en åbning i disketten. Derved fastholdes disketten i lommen, som således kan hovedvendes, uden at disketten falder ud. Som det ses, har tappens yderste ende et tværsnit, som er mindre end det tilsvarende tværsnit i disketten, der kan være en fordybning, 25 men i fig. 4 er vist som et gennemgående hul i disketten.In FIG. 4, a tab 12 is seen engaging an opening in a floppy disk inserted in a pocket. As can be seen, the pin 20 12 projects into the pocket of length 14 and further into an opening in the floppy disk. In this way, the floppy disk is held in the pocket, which can thus be turned over without falling off. As can be seen, the outermost end of the tab has a cross-section smaller than the corresponding cross-section of the floppy disk, which may be a recess, but in FIG. 4 is shown as a through hole in the floppy disk.
Af fig. 1-3 fremgår, at lommens sidevægge 6 er praktisk taget trekantede og øverst har en topvinkel V som vist i fig. 2 beliggende mellem 1 og 12 grader. En foretrukket vinkelstørrelse er 1,8 grader.In FIG. 1-3 show that the side walls 6 of the pocket are practically triangular and have a top angle V at the top as shown in FIG. 2 located between 1 and 12 degrees. A preferred angle size is 1.8 degrees.
30 Tappene eller tappen 12 kan være anbragt ragende ud fra lommens sidevægge 6 eller dens forvæg 4, blot den pågældende væg er af elastisk eftergiveligt materiale, som tillader tappen en vis vandring under en diskettes indføring i lommen. I de viste udførelsesformer er tappen 12 imidlertid 35 placeret indvendigt på lommens bagvæg 2. Dette forudsætter da, at lommens bagvæg er af elastisk ef tergiveligt materiale. Tappens placering på denne bagvæg eller på den væg, som den DK 170768 B1 5 anbringes på, afhænger ikke blot af åbningerne eller fordybningerne i disketten, men afhænger også af væggens elasticitet og stivhed. Hvis således væggen er meget stiv, kan tappene 12 med fordel anbringes på væggens midte, hvor 5 væggens elasticitet tillader tappene 12 den største vandringsmulighed ud over spidsdeformationslængden. I tilfælde, hvor væggen ikke er særligt stiv, men dog elastisk, kan det være hensigtsmæssigt at anbringe tappene tæt ved væggens kanter eller hjørner, hvor den største stivhed naturligvis 10 optræder.The tabs or tab 12 may be arranged protruding from the side walls 6 of the pocket or its front wall 4, provided that the wall in question is of resilient resilient material which permits the tab to move a bit during a floppy insertion into the pocket. However, in the illustrated embodiments, the pin 12 is positioned internally on the back wall of the pocket 2. This, then, assumes that the back wall of the pocket is of elastic and durable material. The location of the pin on this back wall or on the wall on which it is applied depends not only on the openings or recesses in the disk, but also on the elasticity and stiffness of the wall. Thus, if the wall is very rigid, the pins 12 can advantageously be placed on the center of the wall, with the elasticity of the wall allowing the pins 12 the greatest migration opportunity beyond the tip deformation length. In cases where the wall is not particularly rigid but resilient, it may be convenient to place the tabs close to the edges or corners of the wall, with the greatest stiffness of course occurring.
Hvad angår lommene forvæg 4 har denne sædvanligvis samme bredde som bagvæggen 2, men har mindre højde 17 end bagvæggens 2 højde 18, fortrinsvis en trediedel af denne.As for the front wall pockets 4, this usually has the same width as the back wall 2, but has less height 17 than the height 18 of the rear wall 2, preferably a third of it.
Fig. 5 viser i forstørret målestokforhold en tap 15 12, som ifølge opfindelsen har kegleform, her i smalle zoner ved rod og top. Tappens godstykkelse 20 ved tappens 12 yderste ende er ved vacuumformning udformet således, at den bliver tyndere end tappens godstykkelse 22 andre steder. Tappen her er ved sin rod nærmest cylindrisk og går herefter 20 over i en kuppelformet ende.FIG. 5 shows, in enlarged scale, a pin 15 12, which according to the invention has a cone shape, here in narrow zones at the root and top. The thickness of the pin 20 at the outermost end of the pin 12 is formed by vacuum forming such that it becomes thinner than the pin thickness 22 elsewhere. The pin here is at its root almost cylindrical and then passes 20 at a dome-shaped end.
Fig. 6 viser en tap, som er praktisk taget kun kuppelformet. Det vil sige, at den er sammensat af infinite-simale, kegleformede stykker til dannelse af en del af sin kuppelform.FIG. 6 shows a pin which is practically domed only. That is, it is composed of infinite-simulated cone-shaped pieces to form part of its dome shape.
25 Fig. 7 viser en praktisk taget ren kegleform for tappen 12, og fig. 8 viser en kegleformet del sammensat med en udpræget kuppelformet del.FIG. 7 shows a practically pure cone shape of the pin 12, and FIG. 8 shows a cone-shaped part composed of a pronounced dome-shaped part.
