The disclosure refers to a container for storing and providing at least one modular road paver assembly designed for detachable mounting on a road paver. The container comprises a storage system by means of which individual components of the road paver assembly can be positioned within the container in a standardized arrangement, such that the components of the road paver assembly can be checked for completeness by an operator by means of a visual inspection along a sequence determined between opposite boundaries of the container in view of their assembly sequence on the road paver.

Reconfigurable packaging for a cooking appliance includes a base including a base panel defining lower wing slots and opposing sidewalls extending from the base panel. The base defines a storage cavity. A cover is coupled to the base and configured to enclose the storage cavity. The cover includes a cover panel defining upper wing slots, a first side wing extending from a first side of the cover panel, and a second side wing extending from a second side of the cover panel. The first side wing and the second side wing are operable between a first folded position engaging the upper wing slots and a second folded position engaging the lower wing slots.

A packaging assembly (10) for an appliance (14) includes a first shock-absorbing member (18) that defines a cavity (22) to receive a top (26) of the appliance (14) and a second shock-absorbing member (42). The first shock-absorbing member (18) defines a first groove (30) and a second groove (34). Each of the first groove (30) and second groove (34) is defined in a top surface (38) of the first shock-absorbing member (18) and extends along a length thereof. The second shock-absorbing member (42) defines a recess (46) to receive a bottom (50) of the appliance (14). The first shock-absorbing member (18) and the second shock-absorbing member (42) are configured to retain the appliance (14). A first support feature (54) is disposed within the first groove (30) of the first shock-absorbing member (18). A second support feature (58) is disposed within the second groove (34) of the first shock-absorbing member (18). Each of the first support feature (54) and the second support feature (58) is constructed of a wood plastic composite.

A shipping assembly to transport various components of a hammer mill including a hammer, a spacer, and/or a lock collar. The shipping assembly may hold a hammer in a pair of jaws that aligns an opening in the hammer with a spacer held in a collar or a lock collar held in a pair of exterior prongs so that a rod can be inserted through the components. A handle may be received through a stop arm to further secure the hammer mill components and simplify install into the hammer mill.

A speaker packaging device. The speaker packaging device comprises a base plate for supporting a plurality of speakers. The speaker packaging device also comprises a series of transverse baffles and a series of pairs of longitudinal baffles. The transverse baffles and the longitudinal baffles interlock over the base plate, forming a matrix of individual cells, or baffle units. Notches are preserved along each longitudinal baffle for accommodating the outer edges of the respective speakers within each baffle unit. In addition, a gap is preserved between adjacent baffle units to further accommodate the outer edges of the respective speakers. The notches are staggered along adjacent baffle units to conserve space.

Improved equipment bases and methods for making and using same are disclosed herein. The equipment base can include a first coated substrate including a first part having a first thickness sized to provide the load-bearing support for the equipment, a first elastomer coating the first part, a second coated substrate positioned adjacent to the first coated substrate, the second coated substrate including a second part having a second thickness sized to provide the load-bearing support for the equipment, and a second elastomer coating the second part. A first seam can be formed between the first and second coated substrates to allow for moisture to pass between the first and second coated substrates so that moisture is allowed to seep away from the bottom of the equipment.
