  • Patent number: 6640971
    Abstract: A unitary blank of foldable material for forming a carton for containing an object during transport and storage, the blank having: a back panel, first side panel, a front panel, a second side panel, a lid, four bottom tabs, two one-piece support flaps, and two split support flaps. The two on-piece support flaps and two split support flaps form an internal support structure in the bottom of the carton formed by folding the unitary blank. Objects or small appliances positioned within the carton are secured in such a manner as to provide additional support and drop protection to the object or appliance. The carton is folded in such a way so as to add structural integrity to the final carton by the use of stabilizing flaps and an internal support structure. The carton is also designed so as to minimize the material used.
