According to one aspect, a non-roll end sleeve is configured to be disposed on a seamless cylindrical paper tube, said non-roll sleeve having a rectangular cross-section perpendicular to a central axis of the cylindrical paper tube when disposed on the cylindrical paper tube. According to another aspect, a container includes a seamless paper tube having at least one end provided with a shape in cross-section generally having N sides, where N is an integer selected from 3 to 8, which at least one end is closed by flaps of material between openings cut into the at least one end that have been folded inwardly and secured in place to form an end closure.

[Problem to be Solved] To provide a cushioning structure for protecting a packed object, the cushioning structure being designed to have an excellent cushioning effect with a small shape and advantageously reduce industrial waste.

[Solution] A cushioning structure disposed inside a crate part of a packing frame surrounding a packed object, the cushioning structure being provided to protect the packed object secured on an inner bottom of the packing frame, the cushioning structure including: a first cushioning member made of a foam material disposed adjacent to a side of the packed object; a second cushioning member including a corrugated board assembly that supports the first cushioning member; a base part made of corrugated paper that is located to overlap the inner sides of at least parts of two adjacent vertical frames among a plurality of vertical frames constituting the crate part of the packing frame, and is joined with the bottom of the second cushioning member supporting the first cushioning member; and an anchor part made of corrugated paper that is projected on the back side of the base part and is fit between the two vertical frames.

A toner container includes a pouch configured to accommodate the toner therein and provided with an opening at a first end portion of the pouch with respect to a first direction, with a width of the pouch in a second direction that is perpendicular to the first direction being wider than a width of the pouch in a third direction that is perpendicular to both the first direction and the second direction. A first supporting portion supports the pouch on a first side of the first end portion of the pouch with respect to the second direction, the first supporting portion extending in a direction from the first end portion of the pouch to a second end portion of the pouch that is opposite to the first end portion of the pouch. A second supporting portion supports the pouch on a second side of the first end portion of the pouch that is opposite to the first side of the first end portion of the pouch with respect to the second direction, the second supporting portion extending in the direction from the first end portion of the pouch to the second end portion of the pouch.
