Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 6
Claim 1
Independent Claim
160 words
A device for storing parallelepipedal cassettes for CD records, the cassettes being of identical predetermined length and width, the device including a plurality of supporting means disposed on a wall, on which supporting means the cassettes are supported side by side and above each other for forming a wall picture made up of the cassettes, the supporting means consisting of a plurality of parallel, horizontal profiled bars, having supporting surfaces which support the cassettes, these horizontal bars being so arranged that the distance between adjacent cassettes will be essentially equal in the vertical and in the horizontal directions, a plurality of spacing means operatively connected to the horizontal bars to maintain the horizontal bars in predetermined vertically spaced apart relations, and each of the horizontal bars having a plurality of projections protruding from the cassette supporting surface thereof, which projections are integral with the horizontal bar and are spaced apart at a distance corresponding to the length of a cassette.
Claim 2
Independent Claim
160 words
A device for storing parallelepipedal cassettes for CD records, the cassettes being of identical predetermined length and width, the device including a plurality of supporting means disposed on a wall, on which supporting means the cassettes are supported side by side and above each other for forming a wall picture made up of the cassettes, the supporting means consisting of a plurality of parallel, horizontal profiled bars, having supporting surfaces which support the cassettes, these horizontal bars being so arranged that the distance between adjacent cassettes will be essentially equal in the vertical and in the horizontal directions, a plurality of spacing means operatively connected to the horizontal bars to maintain the horizontal bars in predetermined vertically spaced apart relations, and each of the horizontal bars having a plurality of projections protruding from the cassette supporting surface thereof, which projections are integral with the horizontal bar and are spaced apart at a distance corresponding to the length of a cassette.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
27 words
A device as set forth in claim 1, characterized in that each projection has an essentially triangular cross section for centering a cassette between two adjacent projections.
Claim 4
Independent Claim
136 words
A device for storing parallelepipedal cassettes for CD records, the cassettes being of identical predetermined length and width, the device including a plurality of supporting means disposed on a wall, on which supporting means the cassettes are supported side by side and above each other for forming a wall picture made up of the cassettes, the supporting means consisting of a plurality of parallel, horizontal profiled bars, having supporting surfaces which support the cassettes, these horizontal bars being so arranged that the distance between adjacent cassettes will be essentially equal in the vertical and in the horizontal directions, a plurality of vertical bars operatively connected to the horizontal bars to maintain the horizontal bars in predetermined vertically spaced apart relations, and the horizontal bars are attached to at least two vertical bars disposed on the wall.
Claim 5
Independent Claim
136 words
A device for storing parallelepipedal cassettes for CD records, the cassettes being of identical predetermined length and width, the device including a plurality of supporting means disposed on a wall, on which supporting means the cassettes are supported side by side and above each other for forming a wall picture made up of the cassettes, the supporting means consisting of a plurality of parallel, horizontal profiled bars, having supporting surfaces which support the cassettes, these horizontal bars being so arranged that the distance between adjacent cassettes will be essentially equal in the vertical and in the horizontal directions, a plurality of vertical bars operatively connected to the horizontal bars to maintain the horizontal bars in predetermined vertically spaced apart relations, and the horizontal bars are attached to at least two vertical bars disposed on the wall.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
55 words
A device as set forth in claim 3, characterized in that the horizontal bars are provided with projections of dovetail cross-section extending in the longitudinal direction of the horizontal bar, and the vertical bars are provided with dovetail recesses, in which said projections of the horizontal bars are detachably pushed on to the vertical bars.
