Abstract: The disc carrying case includes a housing defining a chamber in which the disc is stored. An elongated slot provides access to the chamber, such that the disc moves edgewise through the slot when it is transferred into and out of the chamber. A pair of tracks aligned with the slot serve to support the disc within the chamber by only the outer rim thereof. Furthermore, a spring biased catch located within the chamber automatically projects into the mounting hole of the disc, when the disc has been sufficiently inserted into the chamber, to prevent relative edgewise movement of the disc. While the disc is held by the catch, an ejector engages the outer edge of the disc and exerts a yieldable ejection bias thereagainst. Removal of the catch from the mounting hole is caused by actuation of a release mechanism. Such removal of the catch permits the ejector to urge the disc out of the chamber.
