  • Patent number: 5645169
    Abstract: A package containing water-soluble bags filled with agricultural chemicals in gel or liquid form facilitates the transport of the bags in a manner which prevents the breakage thereof. The package includes compartments for holding the bags. The walls and base of these compartments contain raised and unraised portions in a pattern such that a baffling effect is created to damper transport shock waves in the gel or liquid bag. These and other features result in the transmission of dynamic shock loads in the package in a manner which prevents such shock loads from breaking the fragile water-soluble bags during transport.
