Abstract

Device (16) for mounting and exposing on a substantially vertical surface CD-boxes (11) of the type comprising a bottom part (26) with a hinged cover (27), the bottom part (26) comprising a lower part (28) and an upper part (29) attached to the lower part by snap action, the bottom part (26) forming at one of the two opposite edges a gap (30) between the lower part and the upper part and at the other one of these opposite edges a projecting rib (31). The device comprises two limbs (19, 20) projecting from said surface mutually spaced a distance corresponding to the width of the box. One limb (19) has an edge flange (21) pointing towards the other limb, while said other limb (20) has at least one projection (23). The box is mounted between the limbs (19, 20) by the flange (21) being inserted into the gap (30) and the projection then being allowed to snap over the rib.
