Zusammenfassung:A housing has an opening for receiving supports for audio or video cassettes or discs. When the support is fully inserted in the housing, an elastic bias member in the housing exerts a force on the support in a direction which is substantially transverse to the insertion direction. The elastic bias member yields in response to manual pressure on the support which turns the support through an angle in a first rotational direction to a pivoted position. When the support is in its pivoted position, the elastic bias member moves the support to an ejection position while rotating the support in a second rotational direction which is opposite to the first rotational direction. A plurality of housing modules with such elastic bias members are connected together by snap connectors for storing a plurality of supports for recording media.
