Abstract: An apparatus for interlocking the top layer of corrugated cardboard cartons in a palletized load of said cartons while also providing edge protection, load containment, a flat even surface to stack additional palletized loads upon, and the ability to stack palletized units of boxed product while not damaging the stacking tabs used in produce corrugated cardboard carton designs. The apparatus has two sides at substantially right angles to each other that meet to form an edge. Material is removed from at least one side to create a plurality of slots for receiving the stacking tabs in the tops of the corrugated cardboard cartons. The apparatus is placed on the edge of the upper layer of cartons on a palletized load to interlock the cartons for greater load stability and to reduce load failure.

Abstract: A seal protector for protecting material packed with metal strapping and a strapping seal from damage by the strapping seal and a method of forming the seal protector. The seal protector is formed from a piece of foldable crush resistant material into which an H-shaped cut is made. The cut forms flaps which fold over to contact the top surface of the material and are glued in that position, creating a seal protector with two different thickness levels and an opening.

Abstract: A bullet trap provides a housing which retains alternate layers of baffles formed of multi-ply paper laminate to sandwich particulate material such as pea gravel to fragment and disintegrate the bullet. Plural trap portions are provided for multiple use while the particulate matter can be readily removed to assist in transputating the trap without undue weight.

Abstract: A target and supporting structure therefore are formed of a multiplicity of substantially coplanar plies of paper adhesively bonded together into a non-hattering and non-splintering rigid laminate. The target may be fixedly supported by a frame structure or removably supported in a free standing position by a slotted base. A method of making and assembling the target and supporting structure therefore is also disclosed.
