External flexible finned protectors are provided for external corners and edges of an article.
Abstract: A packaging medium comprises:(a) a flexible support wall, and(b) fins integral with that wall to project generally toward a structure to be packaged, to confine same during such packaging,(c) the fins being resiliently and yieldably deflectible to bend relative to the support wall in response to squeezing relatively toward the structure,(d) the fins extending in generally parallel planes and having terminal edges that define a positioning plane relative to which the fin planes are out of perpendicularity.
Abstract: A container comprises a receptacle and a cover therefore, the receptacle having a bottom wall and the cover having a top wall, fins integral with at least one of such walls and projecting toward the other of such walls to engage an article placed within the container and between the walls when the cover is closed onto the receptacle, the fins being yieldably deflectible in response to squeezing of the article between the walls, and fastener structure associated with the receptacle and cover to hold the cover closed on the receptacle with the article squeezed and thereby positioned with the fins in deflected state.
