  • Patent number: 7579072
    Abstract: A substrate, for example, a display glass substrate, can be transported and stored with high efficiency, without breaking and adhering dust. A substrate accommodating tray includes a frame member 12 formed to have a larger rectangular frame shape than a glass substrate and four support members 11, having elasticity, formed in an inside region surrounded by the frame member 12. The frame member 12 is formed with a pair of longitudinal direction frames 12a and a pair of width direction frames 12b, and the four support members 11 are arranged while being engaged with the frame member 12. Each support member 11 includes conductive polyethylene foam, which is molded by coating conductive particles on synthetic resin beads as a raw material and foaming it in this state. Therefore, transferring of the resin onto the glass substrate can be prevented during transportation and storage.

  • Patent number: 6807451
    Abstract: A system for order-receiving and delivery of a packaging medium adapted to package an article, which includes whole ordering and delivery processes concerning the packaging medium. This system allows a client to effect a data receiving and transmission with a designer and obtain an individual ID from the designer so that a basic data is transmitted from the client to a terminal server owned by the designer. In the system, the designer has an arithmetic unit by which the basic data is converted into a design data, and the client can take one or more actions to check to see if such design data complies with conditions and requirements proposed by the client, or not. After that checking, the design data is transmitted to a manufacturer who then manufactures packaging medium according to the design data and delivers resulting packaging medium to the client.

  • Patent number: 5871097
    Abstract: The transport case is made of an olefin resin material mixed with an ultraviolet ray absorbing material. The transport case consists of an upper case and a lower case, which have article accommodating recesses that open to the contact surfaces that engage each other when the upper case is closed. The upper and lower cases have flanges formed around the entire circumferences of the openings and covered with thermally fusible resin films. The inner surfaces of the article accommodating recesses of the upper and lower cases are formed with support surfaces that engage an article contained in the case and also with external force absorbing expanded portions that provide gaps between the support surfaces and the article.
