Information handling system packaging is formed from extruded polyethylene cut to length, such as polyethylene terephthalate (PET) or high density polyethylene (HDPE), to define an interior coupling region that fits over the information handling system housing and an outer support region that forms an ellipse compressed by a container that accepts the information handling system housing. An opening seam formed along the entire length of the outer support region provides for deflection of the packaging to absorb acceleration forces generated by the information handling system.

A compact bendable cargo securement device for stabilizing unrestrained items in the bed or cargo area of a pick-up truck or storage area in a motorhome or recreational trailer is disclosed. It may also be used as a stabilizer doing woodwork and other jobs that require stability of the work platform. The device will conform to any surface and has the ability to wrap around objectsboth regular and irregular shapedand will hold them and keep them from shifting. As disclosed, the bendable cargo securement device is composed of a flexible tube loaded with filler material when used and deployed for securing objects. The flexible tube is preferably fabricated from rubber or any material allowing sufficient flexibility for the cargo securement device to wrap around items while having suitable strength to avoid puncture/destruction from deployment. Each end of the device requires a closure to contain the filler material.

A corner protector having a pocket for the receipt of an object. The corner protector includes a window in communication with the pocket for the receipt of a portion of the object, and an undulated gripping member that provides a friction fit of the corner protector against the object.

A combination of a casing tube and a closed end unthreaded tubular thread protector that has an inside diameter significantly greater than the outside diameter of the casing tube is described. Further, the thread protector is typically much longer than the threaded portion of the associated casing tube such that a significant amount of axial movement of the protector relative to the casing tube is required to remove it therefrom. The casing protector is most typically comprised of a polymeric material, such as polyethylene or polypropylene, that is soft enough as to not damage or mar the threads on the casing in which it is in contact, but stiff enough in the tubular form of the protector to prevent impact loads from being transferred to the threads there beneath.

Described herein are shipping blocks for packaging and shipping flat-panel products. The blocks have chamfered edges to allow the block to slide across uneven surfaces; at least one of slots or alignment tabs to secure the product to the block; and, walls that are configured to flex when pressure or stress is applied to the block.

Provided is an insulation liner for use inside a shipping carton that affords thermal insulation and shock absorption for an object to be shipped, a liner and carton system, a method of production of the insulation liner, and methods of use. The insulation liner includes a larger component folded into three panels, a smaller component folded into three panels, and standoffs disposed on the surfaces of both the larger component and the smaller component. The standoffs may be oriented inwardly or outwardly. When oriented outwardly they create an interstitial air space that reduces conduction allowing the insulation effect of the liner and carton system to equal or exceed that of a molded polystyrene container of an equal size.

A packaging assembly, including corrugated corner elements, each corrugated corner element having a first corner post element leg, extending from a vertex of the corrugated corner element and having one or more alternating ridges and grooves, and a second corner post element leg, extending from the vertex, away from the first corner post element leg, and having one or more alternating ridges and grooves; and at least two endcap elements, each comprising at least one tray layer attached or coupled to at least one support layer, wherein the tray layer extends to four corners and the support layer includes a corner recess formed proximate each corner of the tray layer, wherein each corner recess is formed so as to mateingly engage at least a portion of the first end portion or the second end portion of one of the corrugated corner elements at least partially therein.

A method of packaging a bicycle having at least one wheel axle with exposed ends in a shipping carton. The method includes attaching a guard over at least one of the exposed ends of the axle by sliding the axle through a slotted opening in the guard and using the guard to tighten a fastener to positively secure the guard on the axle. A distal surface of the guard is aligned with a side of the carton and the bicycle is placed into the carton with the distal guard surface adjacent to a side of the carton.

A carrier for artists' painting panels or stretched canvases allows wet paintings to be transported in a protected way, important for use by plein air painters and also for protecting finished paintings. A series of frame bars can easily be assembled by their corners in the field to form a frame that can carry at least two painted panels or stretched canvases. The frame bars are universal in that each can be used with another of any length, so that one can select from among a collection of bars of various lengths to assembly a frame of a needed size. The frame holds at least two painted canvases arranged face-to-face. Corners can be secured together by different means. The canvases are held securely in place in the frame.

A cushioning member includes: an accommodating bag portion that accommodates a medium; a first fusing portion that defines the accommodating bag portion such that the accommodating bag portion is provided with an opening; a check valve having a first end located inside the accommodating bag portion and a second end located outside the accommodating bag portion, and provided at the opening; a second fusing portion that is immediately adjacent to the first fusing portion on those external sides of the check valve which are opposite in a direction intersecting a direction in which the check valve protrudes from the accommodating bag portion, and defines a channel that communicates with the opening; and a third fusing portion that is connected to the second fusing portion and seals the channel, the third fusing portion being provided across a portion of the check valve that protrudes from the accommodating bag portion.
