  • Patent number: 5727695
    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.
