A shipping container, particularly suited for shipping wine bottles within a shipping box, having a pair of container halves. Each container half includes an outer tray that is shaped to fit the shipping box, and an inner tray that is configured for securely holding one or more wine bottles. Both the outer tray and inner tray are made of readily recyclable pulp material, and have a void therebetween. A starch based biodegradable insulation material fills the void therebetween, such that the shipping container is made entirely of biodegradable material, yet is sturdy and has insulative properties.

An accommodation structure and an apparatus kit are provided. The accommodation structure is configured for receiving a mobile terminal. The accommodation structure includes a base. The base is provided with a groove, the groove has a bottom provided with an accommodating slot for receiving the mobile terminal, and the groove has a depth increasing from an edge of the groove to a position where the accommodating slot is located. The accommodating slot has a depth varying along a periphery of the accommodating slot, and the depth of the accommodating slot has a minimum value at a position of a maximum depth of the groove.

Disclosed is a container apparatus for shipping fragile items, such as beer and wine bottles. The container apparatus can include a housing and a cushioning member positioned within the interior of the housing. The housing can include first and second complementary sections that are releasably attached to each other by a plurality of complementary attachment members. The cushioning member can be made of a shock absorbing material and a bottle can be positioned within a cylindrical cavity formed in the cushioning member, which provides a barrier between the bottle and the housing that can absorb force from an impact to the housing thereby protecting the bottle from damage.

A container, such as a suitcase, can be used to safely and securely transport bottles, such as wine bottles. The suitcase can open about a central longitudinal axis to provide top open suitcase halves, where one or both of the halves can include a foam insert with receptacles for the placement of bottles therein. The foam can support and separate the bottles so that breakage is minimized or eliminated during transport. A lid, a strap, or both, may be provided to cover at least the receptacles. In some cases, a tunnel may be formed into the foam, extending from one end of the receptacle, for insertion of a neck portion of the bottle therein, thereby further supporting the bottle in the foam. The foam can fit snugly into each half of the suitcase and the number of bottles may be dependent upon user needs and/or size of the suitcase.

A portable insulated container includes an outer shell and a temperature control pack. The portable insulated container also includes a first insert portion that fits inside the outer shell and a second insert portion that also fits inside the outer shell and is configured to engage with the first insert portion to form a plurality of insulated cavities including a temperature control pack cavity along with three or more separate bottle storage cavities. Each of the three or more bottle storage cavities is configured for receiving a bottle and each of the three or more bottle storage cavities is configured for receiving bottles of different sizes and shapes. Each of the three or more bottle storage cavities may also be equidistant from the temperature control pack cavity.

Various embodiments include apparatus, systems, and methods relating to protective packaging for shipping items. In some embodiments, a protective packaging system may include a shipping container and a foam insert assembly. The shipping container may encase an interior portion. The foam insert assembly may be configured to conformally encapsulate one or more shipping items within the interior portion of the shipping container, e.g., so as to protect the one or more shipping items from mechanical impact damage (e.g., bending) and/or environmental damage (e.g., exposure to moisture) during shipping.

A cushioning, which is used for packaging an embedded air blower, forms a three-dimensional shape which partially coincides with a shape of the embedded air blower in a packaged state. The cushioning is capable of forming a planar plate shape in an unpackaged state. The cushioning includes a slit which coincides with an outer periphery of an embedding hole for embedding the embedded air blower, in the planar plate shape.
