A shock absorbing container to protect cryogenically frozen biological material includes an outer case, which includes a first outer panel and a second outer panel, the first outer panel and the second outer panel movable relative to each other between a closed position and an open position, the first outer panel and the second outer panel defining a storage space in the closed position, the first outer panel having a first side facing the storage space, the second outer panel having a first side facing the storage space, wherein moving the first outer panel and the second outer panel into the open position creates or enlarges an opening to access the storage space. A first foam panel is on the first side of the first outer panel, and a second foam panel on the first side of the second outer panel.

In general, one aspect of the subject matter described in this specification is embodied in a rack system. The rack system includes a first stackable rack and a second stackable rack. The first stackable rack includes a top ceiling, a bottom surface, a first sidewall and a second sidewall. The second stackable rack includes a top ceiling, a bottom surface, a first sidewall, a second sidewall and a shelf. The top ceiling, the bottom surface, the first sidewall, the second sidewall and the shelf of the second stackable rack define a first compartment and a second compartment. The bottom surface of the first stackable rack is slidably coupled with the top ceiling of the second stackable rack.

An article can include a panel member folded to form a collapsible sleeve comprising a first panel layer and a second panel layer, the panel member movable between a first configuration and a second configuration, the first and second panel layers defining a product-receiving portion. Each of the first panel layer and the second panel layer can comprise a pivotable edge portion and an extension portion coupled to the pivotable edge portion and received in an opening defined in a respective first and second panel layer. The edge portions of the first panel layer and the second panel layer are pivotable together to form a double-layered support member extending at an angle to the product-receiving portion on a first side of the product-receiving portion and the extension portions are pivotable out of their respective openings on an opposite, second side of the product-receiving portion by motion of the pivotable edge portions.

A support tool includes a first plate portion, a second plate portion that rises obliquely from the first plate portion and changes an angle with respect to the first plate portion by elastic deformation when receiving a load, a third plate portion that rises obliquely from a rising side edge of the second plate portion in a direction that overlaps the second plate portion when projected downward and narrows an angle with respect to the second plate portion by elastic deformation when receiving a load, and a support portion that extends from a rising side edge of the third plate portion and supports a support object.

A kit for temperature maintenance and shipment integrity of a cell culture is provided, including a well plate, a cell culture, culture media, an insulated receptacle, and a temperature maintenance element. The kit may include a heat release element. The well plate includes a plurality of wells. The cell culture is arranged within each of the plurality of wells of the well plate. Culture media is arranged within each of the plurality of wells of the well plate, where the culture media encapsulates the cell culture. The well plate is arranged within the insulated receptacle. The temperature maintenance element is arranged within the insulated receptacle. The heat release element is also arranged within the insulated receptacle.

The present disclosure relates generally to tension-activated, expanding articles, films, and sheets. In some embodiments, these articles, films, and/or sheets are used as cushioning films and/or packaging materials. The present disclosure also relates to methods of making and using these tension-activated, expanding articles, films, and sheets.

A temperature insulated packaging system includes a container having interior surface bounding an interior volume and a liner disposed within the interior volume and at least partially bounding a compartment configured to receive an item for temperature insulated shipping. The liner includes a first sleeve made of cellulose material and at least partially bounds a channel. The first sleeve has an outside wall disposed adjacent to the container and an opposing inside wall disposed adjacent to the compartment configured to receive the item for shipping, the channel being disposed between the inside wall and the outside wall. At least one insulation sheet is disposed within the channel of the first sleeve, the at least one insulation sheet being made of a cellulose material and having a plurality of recesses formed thereon.

An apparatus and methods are provided for an insulated beverage bottle to maintain the temperature of liquid contents and exhibit reduced sound upon being dropped onto a hard surface such as a tennis court. The insulated bottle includes a bottom cushion and a top cushion that are coupled to an outer cylinder. The outer cylinder and the top and bottom cushions exhibit impact resistance and noise suppression properties. A double-walled container is disposed inside the outer cylinder. An insulative material is disposed between the doubled-walled container and the outer cylinder. The insulative comprises fumed silica vacuum insulation that surrounds a majority of the exterior of the double-walled cylinder. A top lid is threadably joined with the insulated bottle such that liquid contents may be stored in an interior of the bottle. A straw holder provides access to a straw and prevents liquid contents from leaking out of the bottle.

Aspects of the present invention disclose a method for identifying items that can utilize stabilized delivery in a delivery system. The method includes one or more processors obtaining data indicating a delivery item from an internet of things (IoT) enabled device. The method further includes determining information associated with the delivery item. The method further includes determining whether the information of the delivery item is associated with stabilized delivery. The method further includes scheduling delivery of the delivery item with a delivery vehicle, based at least in part on the information associated with the delivery item.
