  • Publication number: 20220306339
    Abstract: A packing body includes a bottom plate on which a packed body is placed, a box body that covers the packed body, and a restricting member, of which one end is fixed to the bottom plate and the other end protrudes toward a part of the packed body with a gap and that restricts lateral movement of the packed body by coming into contact with the part of the packed body in a case where the packed body has moved laterally, in which clearance between the restricting member and the part of the packed body is larger than a gap between an inner surface of the box body and the packed body, and the clearance is defined as a movement amount obtained by adding an elastic deformation amount of the restricting member in a case where the packing body has received a horizontal impact to the gap between the restricting member and the part of the packed body.

  • Patent number: 10597216
    Abstract: A packing member attached to an article to be packed, which is accommodated in a package box, to absorb an impact applied to the article, including: a first supporting part; a second supporting part; and a shock absorbing member connected to the first supporting part and the second supporting part. One of the first supporting part and the second supporting part is disposed so as to be partially in contact with the article in a state in which an impact is not applied. When an impact is applied, the shock absorbing member deforms to absorb the impact.
