A container filling apparatus of the present invention includes: a first supply apparatus configured to supply a content; a rotational body having a placement portion configured to carry the contents supplied by the first supply apparatus, the rotational body being configured to rotate with respect to an axis thereof to turn the placement portion; a second supply apparatus configured to place a container from above on the content placed in an upward-facing state on the placement portion; and an engagement portion provided on the rotational body and configured to engage with the container that is placed over the content by the second supply apparatus, wherein the container is disengageable from the engagement portion by the container being rotated by the rotational body at an angle.

A protective product, such as, e.g., an envelope or pouch, is provided that includes at least one expanded slit paper sheet in an expanded state, and an embossed paper sheet facing the expanded slit paper sheet and fixed to the expanded slit paper sheet along at least a portion of a length in an expansion direction of the expanded slit sheet paper. In the preferred embodiments, the embossed paper sheet has a plurality of embossings that increase the rigidity of the embossed paper sheet, thereby inhibiting deformation of the embossed paper sheet that is fixed to the expanded slit sheet paper.

This disclosure describes, in part, systems and methods for package deceleration and protection while packages are loaded into a bulk box. The packaging assembly includes an interference mechanism attached to a bulk box (e.g., a Gaylord container) by multiple elastic members. As packages are dropped into the bulk box, each package contacts the interference mechanism and the elastic members dampen the kinetic energy of the falling package, thereby reducing its velocity before the package continues into the bulk box.

A bundle of tubular and/or rod-shaped glass articles is provided that includes a longest dimension, a plurality of layers (N.sub.L) of the glass articles, and a thread-like element. The longest dimension extends in a first direction. The glass articles in each layer are arranged side by side in a second direction. The plurality of layers are arranged side by side in a third direction. The first, second, and third directions being perpendicular to one another. The thread-like element is around two of the glass articles in at least one layer so that the two glass articles are spaced apart.

A method for producing a container having an upper part, a lower part and a receiving element such as an electronics module includes the following steps: the lower part is created from a first starting material in a first processing region of a processing device; the upper part is created from a second starting material in a second processing region of the processing device; the receiving element is fed into the first processing region of the processing device; the lower part receives the receiving element in the first processing region of the processing device; the upper part is fed from the second processing region into the first processing region of the processing device; and there the upper part and the lower part are joined together to form the container.

An electrode packing device includes: a transferring unit that transfers a wound electrode; and a packaging unit for packaging the electrode transferred by the transferring unit, wherein the packaging unit includes: a packaging bag supporting part for supporting the inlet of the packaging bag in an opened state; an electrode supporting part that supports the electrode from the outside the packaging bag, after the electrode is put into the packaging bag; and a sealing part that seals the inlet of the packaging bag, and the electrode supporting part includes a gripper that presses the core of the electrode and a side pad that presses the side of the electrode in a state in which the electrode is put in the packaging bag.

A deposition mask package according to the present embodiment includes a receiving portion, a lid portion that faces the receiving portion, a deposition mask that is arranged between the receiving portion and the lid portion and has an effective region in which a plurality of through-holes is formed. The receiving portion has a first opposing surface facing the lid portion and a concave portion provided on the first opposing surface. The concave portion is covered by a first flexible film. The effective region of the deposition mask is arranged on the concave portion with the first flexible film interposed therebetween.

A method for unpacking a bundle of tubular and/or rod-shaped glass articles has the steps of holding the bundle in a locked position and pulling a thread-like element that is wrapped around the glass articles so that the thread-like element is withdrawn from the bundle. The bundle includes a longest dimension, layers (N.sub.L) of the glass articles, and the thread-like element. The longest dimension extends in a first direction. The glass articles in each layer are arranged side by side in a second direction. The layers are arranged side by side in a third direction. The first, second, and third directions are perpendicular to one another. The thread-like element is around two of the glass articles in at least one layer so that the two glass articles are spaced apart. The thread-like element has a cross section between at least 0.25 mm and at most 4.0 mm.
