Abstract: A storage container (10) for a compact disk. The storage container (10) includes an outer casing (11) in which is received a compact disk (C). The storage container (10) includes a compact disk support in the form of a pair of arms (12a, 12b) which grasp the compact disk (C) and suspend the compact disk (C) in the storage container (10). A rotatable sidewall (14) is rotatably mounted to the outer casing (11). Rotation of the rotatable sidewall (14) removes the compact disk (C) from within the outer casing (11). Further rotation of the rotatable sidewall (14) causes the rotatable sidewall (14) to act as a lever arm and to press the arms (12a, 12b) together, releasing the compact disk (C).

Abstract: A apparatus for recurling, transporting, sorting and stacking individually fed sheets of paper received from devices such as printing or duplicating machinery. A recurler, comprising a plurality of recurleer belts, trained about a drive roller, a feed roller, and a forward roller, against which a recurler roller is urged, is provided for recurling all sheets entering the enclosure of the sorting apparatus. A conveyor belt assembly urges the sheets against the upper surfaces of a plurality of deflectors to convey the sheets through the enclosure. A lower surface of each deflector selectively deflects the sheets into designated receiving trays, or optionally allows the sheets to be expelled from the enclosure.

Abstract: The present invention comprises a dual tote sorting and stacking apparatus for continuously transporting, sorting and stacking sequentially fed sheets of paper such as from printing, copying and duplicating machinery. The apparatus employs mass airflow type of conveyors for paper transport. A diverter is provided for selectively diverting the sheet to designated receiving trays or, optionally, for expelling the sheet from the apparatus. A jogger is provided for jogging the sheets which are deposited into the trays into individually aligned job stacks. An assembly may also be provided for flipping the sheets as they enter the apparatus or for feeding individual sequentially fed sheets into the apparatus.
