Abstract

A disc container includes a cover secured on a base for receiving an insert. The base has a block formed in the rear side portion for receiving a spring and a knob. The spring includes a protrusion extended inward of the base for engaging with a catch of the insert and for retaining the insert in the base. The insert may be moved outward of the base when the knob is depressed inward of the cover such that the container may be easily operated with only one hand. The knob can be prevented from being depressed inward of the cover inadvertently.
