  • Patent number: 11220389
    Abstract: An insert made of corrugated paper is easily assembled, uses no glue, allows shipping of glass, such as stemware, in any orientation, reduces packing material and reduces shipping costs. In addition, customers receiving the glass can easily unpack the glass and reuse the insert for storing the glass, as the insert can be opened and closed without ripping. The insert has multiple cutouts matching a profile of a bowl of the glass. U-shaped channels are formed by folding the insert along scored lines. The U-shaped channels maintain the glass away from a side of a box in which the insert is placed. The edges of the corrugated paper along the multiple cutouts envelope the bowl of the glass and remove weight and any potential shock that can be transmitted to the glass.

  • Patent number: 10092137
    Abstract: A thermal insulated delivery bag is configured for use with both hot and cold food delivery. The bag converts shape from a horizontal configuration to a vertical (tote) configuration which may optimize use depending on the type of food to be transported. For example, the horizontal configuration may accommodate large flat items while the vertical configuration may accommodate other items, which may be divided into separate internal sections by a divider. The bag includes a divider system to accommodate change in the size of two or more separate internal sections (e.g., segregating cold and hot items). The divider system enables movement/repositioning to change the size of the internal sections while maintaining a substantial thermal isolation of each internal section. In some embodiments, the divider may be held in a position/orientation by coupling of magnets to one or more ferrous strips in the bag.
