Abstract: A packaging structure for holding an article within an outer container includes a frame having a main portion for receiving the article, and a pair of side legs and a pair of end legs foldably connected to the main portion for supporting the main portion. The main portion includes a series of foldable members, the foldable members in a first group being pivotable about axes extending in a first direction and the foldable members in a second group being pivotable about axes extending in a second direction different from the first direction. In one embodiment, the main portion may include a panel for supporting the article, and at least one flexible film for connecting the panel to the frame. A pair of these packaging structures may be arranged in confronting relationship within the outer container so that the article being packaged is held in place between the support panel in one packaging structure and the support panel in the other packaging structure.
