Abstract

Abstract The filing case is particularly suitable for filing diskettes and has a plurality of divider plates spaced one behind the other, provided with projecting labelling tabs and, together with parts of the case bottom and sidewalls, bounding a filing compartment. Each divider plate has two mutually resilient legs, the free ends of which can be inserted in slots in the case bottom, the slots associated with the legs of an individual divider being disposed in a straight line. In order particularly to save on material, the divider plates are disposed in even numbers, are formed identically to one another, and are narrower than the distance between two sidewalls by at least approximately the width of a labelling tab.
