A reusable package is capable of being arranged in an expanded or device transport, state and a compact, or storage, state. In the compact state, the reusable package takes up less than half of the volume or space of the reusable package in the expanded state. The reusable package includes a base, a lid, and a sidewall support structure that is disposed between the base and the lid. The sidewall support structure has four sidewalls joined together in a rectangular shape. At least two of the sidewalls may have creases arranged along a height of the sidewalls. The sidewall support structure is collapsible at the creases when moved into the compact state.

A material storage and transport system is disclosed. The material storage and transport system can include a material storage tray forming a storage volume defined by a bottom and walls extending up from the bottom along a perimeter of the bottom. The material storage and transport system can also include a releasable strap adapted to extend across the bottom when in a securing configuration and a sample carrier, including at least one sample secured to a sample support substrate by a molded sheet. The material storage and transport system can include a hinged lid that is integrally connected to a wall of the material storage tray, and configured to convert between a folded-in position, an opened position, and a closed position.

The present disclosure provides a packaging apparatus. The packaging structure may include a main body including one or more base plates and one or more elastic sheets. Each of the base plates may have two opposite first side edges, two opposite second side edges, and an opening. Each of the one or more elastic sheets may correspond to one of the one or more base plates. The one or more elastic sheets may be physically connected with the main body, and each of the one or more elastic sheets may cover at least a part of the opening. The main body may further include a first side plate disposed beside at least one of the two opposite first side edges and a second side plate disposed beside each of the two opposite second side edges.

The present disclosure provides a packaging structure. The packaging structure may include a sheet and a film. The sheet may include a base plate and a first side plate, a second side plate, a third side plate, and a fourth side plate. The film may at least include a first fixed part and a second fixed part. The first fixed part and the second fixed part may be fixedly connected with at least two side plates of the first side plate, the second side plate, the third side plate, and the fourth side plate, respectively. The packaging structure may achieve the purpose of stretching the film through the folding of the plurality of side plates, so that the film and the bottom plate may form a packaging space to effectively package and fix an object, thereby improving the reliability of transportation.

A package is formed of a die cut paperboard that includes a cutout that is covered by a polymer sheet. The sheet holds an item, such as by stretching, against the bottom side of the unpadded paperboard, which is chosen according to its ability to be transported on metal roller conveyors.

The present disclosure provides an orienting assembly for orienting one or more beverage containers stored within a secondary package. The orienting assembly includes a base portion having a plurality of container regions and remaining non-container regions. The orienting assembly further a layer of a predetermined material, at least partially, coated onto one or more of the plurality of the container regions such that a coefficient of friction at the coated container region is higher compared to that of non-container regions.

Various embodiments relating to a packaging box for packaging an electronic device are presented, and according to one embodiment, the packaging box comprises: a packaging box body; a receiving part included in the packaging box body and receiving the electronic device; and a support structure received in or removed from the receiving part, at least a portion of the supporting structure able to be slantedly folded to or unfolded, wherein the support structure in a folded state is received, together with the electronic device, in the receiving part to support the electronic device to be able to amplify a sound from a speaker included in the electronic device and, in a state removed from the receiving part or in a state received in the receiving part, the supporting structure cradles the electronic device, and additional various other embodiments are possible.

A material storage and transport system is disclosed. The material storage and transport system can include a material storage tray forming a storage volume defined by a bottom and walls extending up from the bottom along a perimeter of the bottom. The material storage and transport system can also include a releasable strap adapted to extend across the bottom when in a securing configuration and a sample carrier, including at least one sample secured to a sample support substrate by a molded sheet. The material storage and transport system can include a hinged lid that is integrally connected to a wall of the material storage tray, and configured to convert between a folded-in position, an opened position, and a closed position.

A material storage and transport system is disclosed. The material storage and transport system can include a material storage tray forming an open-top storage volume defined by a bottom and walls extending up from the bottom along a perimeter of the bottom. The material storage and transport system can also include a releasable strap adapted to extend across the bottom when in a securing configuration and a sample carrier, including at least one sample secured to a sample support substrate by a molded sheet. A lid element and the sample carrier can be adapted (i) to fit within the storage volume when arranged parallel to the bottom, and (ii) to be secured to the material storage tray by the releasable strap.

According to an example aspect of the present invention, there is provided a blank for packaging, the blank comprising a first network of polygonal units, wherein sides of the polygonal units are partially formed by cuts through the blank, and wherein one end of each side of each polygonal unit is connected to an adjacent end of a side of another polygonal unit such that each side of each polygonal unit is connected to a different polygonal unit.
