Implementations described and claimed herein include a cushioning structure and method for manufacturing a cellular cushioning system, which allows for maximum comfort through the compression and shock cycle. Specifically, a cushioning structure comprises void cells formed in an array, which comprise multiple outwardly curved surfaces, with varying radius measurements. Stiffness in the void cells can vary by varying the radii. The outwardly curved surfaces prevent buckling and provide support for high impact by absorbing energy.

An inflation method for an air cushion body which includes one or more air storing units formed by at least two air cell films, an inflation valve formed by at least two valve films, and an inflation unit integrally connected with the air storing units and formed by two inflation end portions overlapping with each other to define an inflation channel, includes the following steps: sealing off two ends of the inflation channel to form an inflatable cavity, filling air into the inflatable cavity where the air that enters the inflatable cavity enters the corresponding air storing units through the air inlet channel, and releasing the two ends of the inflation channel upon completion of inflation to acquire the air cushion body that is inflated.

An air cushion packaging box includes at least one inflatable main body and at least one box body. The inflatable main body is provided with at least one inflating valve to inflate the inflatable main body. The inflatable main body is provided in the box body to form an integral structure with the box body, so as to provide air cushion effect to packaged items after the inflatable main body is inflated. The box body is automatically opened when the inflatable main body is inflated to enhance the use of the air cushion packaging box.

Package having a flexible inner sheet having a first surface and a second surface. The package has an article reservoir for accepting an article to be shipped. The expansion chambers can be inflated or otherwise expanded to provide structure to the package and to protect the article in the article reservoir. The inner sheet of the package includes a shrinkable material that can be activated to immobilize articles disposed in the article reservoir.
