Abstract: A cushioning pack of unitary construction has a resilient base defining an article-receiving region for accommodating a shock-sensitive article. The article-receiving region has a platform on which the article can be placed. A cushioning structure bounds the article-receiving region. One or more arrays of upstanding article-retaining studs are formed in the base and bound a portion of the article-receiving region on the platform. The article-retaining studs have a cut partially surrounding the article-retaining studs so as to leave a hinge portion permitting the article-retaining studs to be depressed into the base so that the article-retaining studs are resistant to lateral forces but submissive to vertical forces. The pack can thus accommodate articles of different sizes.

Abstract: A product cushioning structure for supporting a shock sensitive product in an outer packaging container having a plurality of container walls has at least two interconnected outer container-contacting panels for supporting and stabilizing the cushioning structure within the outer packaging container in at least two mutually perpendicular directions. At least two inner product-supporting panels support the shock sensitive product within the cushioning structure. Intermediate wall sections extend between the outer container-contacting panels and the inner product-supporting panels. The intermediate wall sections, outer container-contacting panels and inner product-supporting panels are made of a stiff paper-board material and are joined together to form box-like cells between the respective inner product-supporting panels and outer container-contacting panels. The cells are crushable to provide shock absorption support to the product during shock loading conditions.

Abstract: Disclosed is a unitary product cushioning device for supporting shock sensitive products during transport in an exterior container, comprising a product support region having a platform; a flap hingedly connected on either side of the product support region for folding upwards and towards the product support region; a plurality of ribs on each flap and product support region, the ribs defining product-supporting cavities therebetween for receiving and supporting the products; a cutout between each flap and product support region. Fold stops may hingedly connect each flap and product support region, the fold stop being angled to facilitate folding of the flap towards the product support region to form a generally “U” shape in the exterior container.
