The present disclosure provides a packaging apparatus. The packaging apparatus may include a main body. The main body may include a base plate, a first side plate, and a second side plate. The first side plate and the second side plate may be distributed around the base plate. The packaging apparatus may include an elastic sheet disposed above the base plate. The elastic sheet may include a first fixing part and a second fixing part. The first fixing part and the second fixing part may be connected with the first side plate and the second side plate, respectively. A space may be configured between the base plate and the elastic sheet. When the packaging apparatus is used to package a subject, the first side plate and the second side plate may be folded away from a side of the base plate where the subject is located.

A transport container for free-rooted plants adapted to safely transport plants to be grown aeroponically. The container may include a light adapted to keep the plant in a vegetative state during transportation. The light may be wavelength limited to include lower frequency visible light. The transport container may include a stem and root stabilizer to protect, position, and stabilize the stem and roots. Water retaining structures, such as gelatinous balls, may be contained within the base of the container and are adapted to allow for moisture and nutrients to be passed to the roots.

A standing clip for supporting an object in an upright position includes a flexible grip having an upper lever arm, a lower lever arm, and first and second support legs. The first support leg extends from the upper lever arm at a second end of the flexible grip, and the second support leg extends from the lower lever arm at the second end of the flexible grip. The first and second support legs include complimentary clamping surfaces configured for clamping the object therebetween, and are spaced apart from each other by a gap. The flexible grip is depressible from a first state in which the gap is a first size to a second state in which the gap is a second size. The first and second support legs are oriented substantially vertically in the second state to clamp and suspend the object above a desired surface.

A sealing structure including a first inner layer unit, a second inner layer unit, a first outer layer unit, and a second outer layer unit is provided. The second inner layer unit and the first inner layer unit are partially connected to each other through a connection manner, so as to form a gas delivery structure that includes a plurality of first stop barriers, a plurality of second stop barriers, and a runner. The second outer layer unit and the first outer layer unit are partially connected to each other through the connection manner, so as to form a first closed pattern, a second closed pattern, a plurality of interval patterns and a plurality of non-continuous patterns. Each of the plurality of first stop barriers and each of the plurality of second stop barriers are connected to one of the plurality of interval patterns respectively.

A packing material including a plurality of discrete cushioning elements and methods for making the same. The discrete cushioning elements may be cellulosic cushioning elements. A flexible linkage may connect the plurality of discrete cushioning elements in the packing material. The packing material may also include a bottom cellulosic sheet connected to a top cellulosic sheet with the plurality of cellulosic cushioning elements positioned between the top cellulosic sheet and the bottom cellulosic sheet. The packing material may also be a molded packing material that includes bonds comprising adhesive and cellulosic fibers. The adhesive and cellulosic fibers of the bonds may be dispersed between the folds of each of the cellulosic cushioning elements.

A corner post assembly including at least a corrugated corner post, having a portion of material having a post vertex; a first corner post leg having one or more alternating post ridges and post grooves and extending from the post vertex; a second corner post leg having one or more alternating post ridges and post grooves and extending from the post vertex; a brace element, having a portion of material having a brace vertex; a first brace leg having one or more alternating brace ridges and brace grooves extending from the brace vertex; a second brace leg having one or more alternating brace ridges and brace grooves extending from the brace vertex and having one or more alternating brace end ridges and brace end grooves formed in a first brace terminal end and a second brace terminal end of the first brace leg and the second brace leg.

An improved expandable slit-sheet stock material is configured to aid in temporarily restricting opening of a plurality of slits of the slit-sheet stock material, such as during winding of the unexpanded stock material or during expansion of the stock material. Each slit of the plurality of slits includes one or more un-slit reinforcement portions, such as reinforcement ties, extending fully between opposite longitudinal sides of the slit, and disposed between opposed transverse endpoints of the slit. The reinforcement ties minimize or prevent tearing of the stock material during the winding or expansion. A dunnage conversion system for expanding the slit-sheet stock material includes an expander having a pair of opposed rollers. The rollers engage the stock material to effect breaking of the un-slit reinforcement portions and expansion of the slit-sheet stock material.
