An embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. 1 is a vertical sectional front view of a temporary storage table for a compact disk, taken along the line AA in FIG. 2, FIG. 2 is a plan view of a base of the temporary storage table, FIG. 3 is a plan view of a main body of the temporary storage table, and FIG. FIG. 4 is a sectional view of the main body taken along line BB of FIG. 3. 1 to 4, reference numeral 1 denotes a temporary mounting table for a compact disk. The temporary mounting table 1 includes a main body 2 made of an elastomer (elastic material) in which a support portion 3 is formed in a plurality of steps (three steps) in a stepwise manner, and the main body 2 And a base 4 made of a hard synthetic resin, which is fitted and mounted on the upper surface. The main body 2 has substantially the same thickness, and a compact disk 6
A long groove 7 that fits a part of the outer peripheral side of the compact disk 6 and supports it while standing upright is formed in an arc shape having a direction crossing the stepwise direction and a groove bottom surface 8 having a diameter matching the outer diameter of the compact disc 6. It is formed in a straight line with an upward opening. The portion other than the portion where the long groove 7 is formed is formed in a bulged space portion 9, and the space portion maintains the flexibility of the portion where the long groove 7 is formed to some extent. The compact disk 6 of this embodiment has a diameter of 12
cm.

As shown in FIG. 4 and an enlarged view of FIG. 5, the long groove 7 has a groove bottom 8 on which the front and back surfaces of a non-reading portion (non-information storage portion) 10 formed on the outer peripheral edge of the compact disk 6 are tightly fitted. And a wide groove 7b that gradually expands toward the upper opening side and does not closely contact the front and back surfaces inside the non-reading portion 10. On one of the groove walls at the central portion in the longitudinal direction of the wide groove 7b, there is provided a rib 15 in contact with a non-read portion 13 formed on the inner surface of the non-read portion 10 on the outer peripheral edge of the compact disk 6, and a rib 15 corresponding to the narrow groove 7a. It is provided flush with the groove wall on the side of the groove. The opening edge of the wide groove 7b is curved in the shape of a radius in the groove width direction, and a curved surface 16 is formed in the vicinity thereof. The outer peripheral edge of the main body 2 is formed as a fitting piece 17 bent downward, and can be fitted to a fitting piece formed on the outer peripheral edge of the base described later. Note that a reading unit (information storage unit) 18 is formed on the back surface inside the non-reading unit 10 of the compact disk 6.

The base 4 has a bottom plate 4a, as is apparent from FIG.
It has a box shape with an upper surface opening formed by the front and rear side plates 4b and 4c and the left and right side plates 4d and 4e. At the upper ends of the front and rear side plates 4b and 4c and the left and right side plates 4d and 4e of the base 4, an outer surface is cut out and a stepped and thin fitting piece 21 is provided, and the main body 2 is fitted to the fitting piece. The pieces 17 are fitted in an overlapping manner from the outside. Especially its left and right side plates 4
The shape of the upper edge of the fitting piece 21 of d and 4e is a step-like waveform that is partially concave and concave in accordance with the fitting of the fitting piece 17 of the main body 2. By the fitting of the main body 2 to the upper end of the base 4 as described above, the two members 4 and 2 are in a state where the mounting as shown in FIG. 1 is completed.

The temporary mounting table 1 having the above-mentioned structure can be detachably attached with a special tape via a rear surface thereof, or can be mounted on a desk even in a place where there is no storage, for example, in a car or around a narrow computer. It is placed and used for use. At the time of use, the compact disk 6 to be used is taken out of, for example, a storage place, taken out from the outer case, and a part of the outer peripheral side is inserted into the long groove 7 of the main body 2.
And lean on it. This allows compact disk 6
As shown in FIG. 1, the device is supported and supported in a substantially vertical standing state, and is in a temporarily placed state. In this temporary storage state, the compact disk 6 has the front and back surfaces of the non-read portion 10 on the outer peripheral edge closely contacting the groove wall of the narrow groove 7a as shown in FIG. Are in close contact with the ribs 15, and the reading unit 18 on the back surface does not adhere to any of them. Further, since the groove bottom surface 8 of the long groove 7 is formed in an arc shape having a diameter compatible with the outer diameter of the compact disk 6, the compact disk 6 that is leaned against is not stabilized and is extremely stable. In addition, since the disk is oriented substantially vertically, dust does not easily adhere to the front and back surfaces of the compact disk 6.

In this embodiment, a total of three compact discs 6 can be placed upright and temporarily placed in a ready-to-use state. In addition, even when the compact disc 6 is used in a state where it is temporarily supported, the compact disc 6 can be rotated with one hand in one direction of the long groove 7 so as not to hit the rib 15, and can be immediately set in a drive of a computer or the like. The operation is quick and easy, and the operability is good. In addition, since the compact disc 6 can be supported in a stepped manner, it is possible to look at the pattern on the surface of the compact disc 6 and select at a glance the compact disc 6 that the user wants to use while leaning, making the compact disc 6 easy to use. , My favorite compact disc 6
Can be enjoyed as an interior as it is. Even if the compact disc 6 leans in any one of the plane directions when the compact disc 6 is leaned, since the opening edge side of the wide groove 7b of the long groove 7 is the curved surface 16, the corner portion is formed. There is almost no possibility that the front and back surfaces of the compact disc 6 (especially the back surface where the reading unit 18 is provided) are damaged as in the case of the above. Of course, since the body 2 itself that the compact disc 6 touches is also made of an elastomer, scars on the front and back surfaces of the compact disc 6 during or during the support hardly occur.

In the above description, the main body 2 is supported by the base 4. However, such a base 4 is not always necessary. If the main body 2 is formed to include the base 4, only the main body 2 is supported. A configuration may be used. In addition, although the main body 2 is tentatively made of an elastomer in the embodiment, the main body 2 is not limited to this as long as a similar effect can be obtained, and may be another elastic material. The configuration of the long groove 7 for supporting the compact disk 6 is also an example, and the diameter of the groove bottom surface 8 does not necessarily have to match the outer diameter of the compact disk 6. Change to a preferred form as appropriate,
Can be modified.

[0012]

The invention of claim 1 is as described above,
The supporting portion includes a main body made of an elastic material such as an elastomer formed in a plurality of steps in a stepwise manner, and the bottom surface of the groove is formed in an arc shape on the surface of each supporting portion of the main body in a direction crossing the stepwise direction. The long groove that fits a part of the outer periphery of the compact disk and supports it in an upright state is formed linearly with an upward opening, so that the compact disk taken out of the outer case can be used upright against the long groove. It can be temporarily placed in the state, and can be taken out immediately with one hand when you want to use it. In addition to the above, the outer diameter of the compact disk can be fitted to the bottom of the groove, so that the provisional state can be improved, and the compact disk can be easily taken out by rotation or the like. In addition to the above, the inventions of claims 3 and 4 can be expected to have an excellent effect that damage to the reading section of the compact disc is extremely small.
