A packing unit for an air-conditioning apparatus includes an outdoor unit with heavy objects that are provided on a bottom plate of a housing of the outdoor unit. On the packing unit, the outdoor unit is placed. The packing unit includes: a support base that has a cuboid framework structure made by combining a plurality of wood pieces, and supports the outdoor unit; a long wood piece that has a long plate shape, and that forms part of an upper surface portion of the support base and faces the bottom plate, the long wood piece having end portions, one of the end portions being fixed to the support base, the other being a free end that is movable in a vertical direction; and a support wood piece that is provided on an upper surface portion of the end portion on a free end side of the long wood piece.

A packaging container for a car floor mat including: a main body; at least one post member extending from the main body for supporting the car floor mat, and a securing arrangement releasably secured to the post member, the car floor mat being retained on the post member when the securing arrangement is secured to the post member, the car floor mat being removable from the packaging container when the securing arrangement is released from the post member, wherein the securing arrangement includes a catch supported on the main body by a hinged connection, the catch including a ring member for encircling the post member when engaging the post member, the ring member having an inwardly directed engagement member for engaging an overbite provided on the post member when the catch is hinged towards and interlocks with the post member.

A box pallet (1) comprising at least one base (4) and an articulated belt (5), the box pallet (1) being convertible between a loading configuration in which the belt (5) is unfolded and erected on the base (4) so as to form a storage volume and an empty transport configuration in which the belt (5) is folded and laid flat on the base (4); characterised in that it comprises at least one articulated bottom panel (10) that bears on the base (4) and is capable of forming a wedge for a bulky object, such as a motor vehicle seat, that needs to be loaded into the storage volume.

Disclosed is a transfer pallet for use in a conveyor line to load and carry a product thereon, such as an automobile component or an electronic component, in which the transfer pallet is provided with a support plate to load the product thereon in multiple stages.

An inner molding is stored by retaining at least a curved portion of the inner molding by a retaining member in a state where a shape of at least the curved portion of the inner molding is maintained. The inner molding is retained by fitting at least a curved portion of an attachment portion of the inner molding into an attachment portion groove of the retaining member so that an outer surface of a first horizontal wall of the attachment portion abuts against a first inner wall surface of the attachment portion groove and an outer surface of a second horizontal wall of the attachment portion abuts against a second inner wall surface of the attachment portion groove.

The blade support apparatus relates to capturing and stabilizing airfoils such as helicopter blades to enable ground transport without requiring removal of airfoils or blades with the blade support apparatus and blades in a protective container. The blade support apparatus captures and stabilizes helicopter blades utilizing a support frame with vertical and radial adjustable supports. These supports have contoured padded cradles and means of adjusting the height and angle of the cradles to match the profile being captured. The blade support apparatus enables loading, transport, and unloading of the airfoils for transport in a separate blade container which may either be stand alone or attaches to a helicopter transport apparatus. An alternate embodiment utilizes a support frame which is vertically and radially adjustable. Within the support frame are the same contoured padded swivel cradles which also adjust to the height and angle of the profile being captured.

A nested dunnage arrangement is provided for compactly storing or transporting parts, each having a concave surface defining a cavity and a convex surface opposite the concave surface, and includes a panel defining an opening, and means for positioning a first part on one face of the panel with the concave surface of the first part facing the opening. The opening is sized to receive therein from an opposite face of the panel a convex surface of a second part such that the convex surface of the second part extends through the opening and at least partially into the cavity of first part. A periphery of the opening is configured to engage the convex surface of the second part received therein to nest the second part within the first part while also preventing the convex surface of the second part from contacting the concave surface of the first part.

A torque converter includes an impeller having an impeller shell and an impeller hub attached to a radially extending end of the impeller shell. The torque converter further includes a cap slidably engageable with the impeller hub. The cap includes a base and an inner ring portion. The inner ring portion is configured to be received by the impeller hub and includes an end spaced from the base. The end is configured to extend radially outside of an inner surface of the impeller hub in an installed position.

A hybrid module shipping assembly includes a hybrid module configured for arrangement in a torque path upstream from a transmission and downstream from an internal combustion engine. The hybrid module includes a hybrid drive unit, a housing fixed to a front side of the hybrid drive unit and a torque converter fixed to a rear side of the hybrid drive unit. The torque converter includes an impeller hub. The hybrid module shipping assembly also includes a cap assembly inserted in the impeller hub and a shipping dome fixed to the housing such that the housing and shipping dome encase the hybrid drive unit, the torque converter and the cap assembly.

A packaging system included a support member and a packing component. The support member includes a base, a head portion, and a leg. The head portion extends from the base in a first direction. The leg extends from the base in a second direction opposite the first direction. The packing component includes a first portion and a second portion. The first portion defines a first aperture configured to receive the leg. The second portion defines a second aperture configured to receive the head portion.
