Patent ID: 7533770

Claim:
A data disc storage arrangement for a plurality of data discs each having an inner data surface containing data, and an outer non-data edge sector which is not written to store data thereon, comprising: a disc housing having: a storage portion having a top utility surface having a radius of curvature adapted for substantially matching with a contour of the outer non-data edge sector of the data disc, a disc retrieving portion extending from said storage portion and having an upper retrieving surface having a radius of curvature adapted for matching the contour of the outer non-data edge sector of the data disc, and a bumping ridge which is provided between said storage portion and said disc retrieving portion and has an upward curving surface integrally extended from said top utility surface of said storage portion to said upper retrieving surface of said disc retrieving portion to form a wavy guiding surface; and a disc guider which comprises a plurality of edge holders formed on said storage portion, said disc retrieving portion and said bumping ridge of said disc housing, wherein said edge holders are elongated holding slots spacedly extending along said wavy guiding surface formed on said storage portion, said bumping ridge and said disc retrieving portion of said disc housing, each of said elongated holding slots being sized and formed to hold the outer non-data edge sector of the data disc in position for spacedly retaining said data discs on said storage portion of said disc housing in an upright manner while preventing the inner data surfaces of the data discs from being contacted with any physical objects; wherein said storage portion is provided at a position higher than said disc retrieving portion while said bumping ridge is integrally formed between said storage portion and said disc retrieving portion, thereby when any of the data discs is able to be drive from said storage portion to said disc retrieving portion by a finger contacting at an outer circumference of the outer non-data edge sector of the data disc to slide over said bumping ridge from said storage portion, said data disc is capable of being guided to roll over said bumping ridge from said storage portion to said disc retrieving portion by means of gravitational force and preventing the data disc from sliding back to the storage portion unless a manual push is applied thereto and preventing any contacting of the inner data surface of the data disc.
