A reusable packaging device that in a use state is a rhomboid outer structure with an internal inflatable and reusable vessel that surrounds and protects a payload, that can be converted into a storage state by deflating the vessel and folding the outer structure flat in order that it may be stacked.

A shoulder-filled inflatable bag includes a box body and a cover body. The shoulder-filled inflatable bag can protect the packaged objects, such as a bottle, especially a bottle having shoulders, such as a detergent, a laundry detergent, and etc. In addition to protecting the bottle from external impact, especially the neck of a protective bottle, the shoulder-filled inflatable bag effectively disperses the pressure on the bottle, so that the bottle is not broken due to pressure during transportation or handling.

A shipping system for shipping planar substrates includes a plurality of planar substrates stacked to form a pack and a plurality of interleaving material including substantially spherical beads positioned between the substrates of the pack and configured to carry a load. Substantially all of the beads have a diameter within 25% of D.sub.max, where D.sub.max is a diameter corresponding to a size of an opening of an upper limit sieve used in the shipping system. Also disclosed are a spacer for use in a shipping system for shipping planar substrates, a wrapped system for shipping planar substrates, a method of wrapping a system for shipping planar substrates, and a powder applicator.

A frame package including a back panel, an inside panel tab, a front panel, and an inside panel is provided. The inside panel tab extends from the back panel. The front panel extends from the back panel and defines a region to rest upon a corner portion of a frame. The inside panel extends from the front panel and includes an inside panel tab slot. The back panel, the front panel, and the inside panel are arranged with one another to fold about the corner portion of the frame and for the inside panel to extend through a frame opening such that the corner portion of the frame is covered by at least one of the back panel and the front panel. The inside panel tab is received within the inside panel tab slot to secure the back panel to the inside panel without an additional fastener.

A container comprised a container body having a first cavity for receiving a product therein, the container body having a front surface, back surface, first sidewall and second sidewall, and a cover having an opening extending thereinto, said opening configured to receive said container body therein, the cover comprising an outer wall, an inner wall and a second cavity defined between said outer wall and inner wall, said second cavity housing a protective material therein. The protective material moves the cover from a first configuration defining a first inner profile of the inner wall of the cover to a second configuration defining a second inner profile of the cover, said second inner profile being smaller than the first inner profile.

A module clip piece for a module is disclosed. The module clip piece includes at least one protrusion configured to engage at least one groove of a first neighboring module clip piece. The at least one protrusion protrudes in a first direction. At least one groove is coupled to the at least one protrusion and is configured to engage at least one protrusion of a second neighboring module clip piece. The at least one groove extends in a second direction that is orthogonal to the first direction.

The invention discloses a dunnage bag arrangement for securing loads, includes an inflatable dunnage bag having a gastight inflatable bladder; and a hanger member connected to the dunnage bag and adapted to being supported on top of loads and adapted to support the dunnage bag in a void between loads. The dunnage bag includes a reinforcing sleeve made of at least one material ply, the sleeve having a first opening and a second opening, and the sleeve being folded and sealed and/or stitched to close off at least one of the openings.

A spring-loaded or springy biased platform for support of the components carried with a case, such as to hold a portable computer or other device so that, when the case is closed, the computer or other device is securely held within the case. In addition, a foldable shade comprising foldable segments is placeable fully within the case lid and deployable when the case is opened with end portions of the segments extending into a bottom of a bottom shell so as to enable shading of the computer screen from light ambient to the computer when the portable computer is secured to said platform. A novel connection between the case and a light stand is provided, including an improved set screw attachment. Furthermore, the computer is secured to the top surface of the spring-loaded or springy biased platform by hook-and-loop fasteners (e.g., Velcro fasteners), the platform has openings in it to provide ventilation. Brackets in the bottom surface of the platform enable a battery to be inserted within the brackets and to the platform. Included also within and attached to the bottom of the case are such components as a power supply and an external hard drive and associated wiring.
