Abstract
This invention relates in general to a disc pack cartridge and more particularly pertains to a handle for a single disc cartridge having an improved mechanism that enables unlatching of the removable bottom cover of the cartridge. The handle can be raised from a horizontal to a vertical position on the top cover either to carry the latched cartridge about conveniently or to unlatch the bottom cover. A special guide is incorporated into the handle to control the path of movement of the handle when it is moved between its horizontal and vertical positions.
