Abstract
A magnetic disk storage case, having a boxlike portion with side and front walls, hinged by means of a binding to a top that overlies the boxlike portion. Attached to the binding is an articulated support ledge or shelf which is molded to the binding as well as the boxlike portion and the top in one injection molding process. The ledge or shelf is provided with two lateral tabs which extend outwardly through openings within two wall bracket portions depending from the top so as to allow the ledge to move backwardly and forwardly with the tabs being secured for their respective movement within the openings. This permits the ledge to be moved to a limited degree for expanding the space between the ledge and the interior surface of the top so as to provide greater access to magnetic memory disks stored on the ledge and held within the case.
