  • Patent number: 5301819
    Abstract: A storage rack for relatively flat objects (6), such as CD-cassettes, essentially consisting of two three-dimensional elements (10, 11), each element having been bent so as to form approximately a dihedral angle, in which at a fixed pitch distance a series of slotted recesses (3) are provided having a slot width corresponding to the height of the object (6) to be stored. The pitch distance of the recesses (3) is approximately twice the height of the object, the recesses (3) in one element (10) being staggered relatively to the recesses (3) in the other element (11) by half the pitch distance, in such a manner that the two elements (10, 11) can be slid one into the other with the angular points (12) turned towards each other.
