In one embodiment, a portable system for absorbing shock and carrying electronic equipment is disclosed. The system includes a container having an open end, a closed end, and an interior wall. At least one first standoff is attached to a first interior wall portion and at least one second standoff is attached to a second interior wall portion such that the first and second standoff oppose each other. At least one piece of electronic equipment is attached to a plate. The plate includes a rail. Each standoff also has a groove, where each groove is configured to receive the rail. The system further includes a relief section defined by area between a perimeter of the plate and a perimeter of the electronic equipment. The system also includes shock absorbing properties to protect the equipment from damage. In other embodiments, the system includes at least one solar panel defining a kit.

There is disclosed a packaging system including an outer container having a bottom and four upstanding sidewalls defining an outer container volume, the outer container further comprising an outer container top, and an inner compartment having an inner compartment bottom, four upstanding sidewalls including an inner compartment front, an inner compartment back, and two opposing inner compartment ends, the four upstanding walls bounding a perimeter of the inner compartment bottom, and an inner compartment top, wherein the inner compartment is formed by an inner compartment panel folded to form the inner compartment bottom, the four upstanding inner compartment sidewalls and the inner compartment top, wherein the packaging system includes a plurality of suspension elements maintaining an air gap between the outer container and the inner compartment, and wherein the outer container and the inner compartment are formed from a packaging system material.

A protection device that provides improved protection against damage to the underlying product. The protection device includes silk impact pillows that absorb energy from low or high impacts. The present disclosure provides the ability to adjust a plurality of attributes: 1) pillow stiffness, 2) cocoon density; and 3) cocoon height, to construct a pillow of a desired impact resistance.

An air bag packaging arrangement and a self-adhesive checking valve, the air bag packaging arrangement includes an air bag and an air valve which is the self-adhesive checking valve. The air bag includes first and second cell overlapped layers to form an air chamber and a valve opening. The air valve includes first and second sealing films overlapped between the first and second cell layers, and a strengthening film provided between the first valve film and the first cell film to strengthen a joint strength between the first valve film and the first cell film, so as to prevent the first valve film from being broken, so as to further avoid an air leakage.

A subsea container is for housing an electronic module. In an embodiment, the subsea container includes a main body including an opening; a module frame for receiving an electronic module that is to be arranged inside the main body; a support structure for supporting the module frame within the main body; and a lid fitting the opening of the main body, the support structure including a shock absorbing structure. Further, a method of manufacturing a subsea container is described.

An impact absorber includes a three-dimensional structure. The three-dimensional structure includes a closed top surface, an open bottom, a hollow inside, and a recess. The recess is disposed within an outline of the top surface.

Disclosed is a package delivery mechanism (PDM) of an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV). The PDM includes a gravity activated locking mechanism to lock and unlock a package attached to the UAV based on the weight of the package. When the package is attached to suspension means of the UAV that lowers the package to the ground from the UAV, the locking mechanism automatically engages with the package and keeps the package locked to the suspension means, due to the weight of the package. When the package is lowered and reaches on the ground, the weight of the package is offloaded from the suspension means, which enables the locking mechanism to be disengaged, thereby releasing the package. The PDM includes a severing module to sever the suspension means from the UAV.

A tool for fixing a protective textile sleeve about an elongate member contained therein, and method of use thereof is provided. The tool includes a clamp assembly having opposed clamp members. Each of the clamp members has a clamp surface for abutting the textile sleeve. Each of the clamp surfaces includes a plurality of heating members operably connected to a source of power. The heating members within each clamping surface are supported for independent radial movement relative to one another in response to engagement with an outer surface of the textile sleeve to allow the clamp surfaces to automatically conform to the arcuate shape of the sleeve and elongate member being clamped therebetween.

A shipping package and method of making a shipping package having a flexible inner sheet having a first surface and a second surface. The method includes providing one or more sheets of flexible material, joining the sheet(s) to form an article reservoir for accepting an article to be shipped, one or more expansion chambers, and an article retrieval feature. The expansion chambers can be inflated or otherwise expanded to provide structure to the package and to protect the article in the article reservoir.

A package for protecting consumer goods from damage in transit is provided. Such package is defined by a sheet material, such as recycled polyethylene terephthalate felt and other recycled plastics. Edges of the sheet of material are bonded to form a package defining an open top end configured to receive fragile consumer goods therethrough. Means for cinching the open top end around or about the goods, either partially or completely are provided. The sheet of material may define some thickness that provides padding or cushioning between any item stored with the package and any items outside of it. It is contemplated that the packaging may be reused indefinitely to protect items such as glass bottles and others from damage which might otherwise occur between the point of sale and its intended destination.
