A system for enclosing curved objects includes a first panel may include a first top portion, a first rear portion, a first side portion, a first bottom portion, and a first front portion. A second panel includes a second top portion, a second rear portion, a second bottom portion, and a second front portion. And a third panel includes a third top portion, a third rear portion, a second side portion, a third bottom portion, and a third front portion. The first panel is coupled to the second panel by at least a tab and a slot. And the second panel is coupled to the third panel by at least a tab and a slot. Each top portion is coupled to a respective front portion by a tab and a cut-out aperture. Each panel is positioned at an angle relative to a neighboring panel. The angle may comprise an obtuse angle.

A container for holding product therein during shipment and for reuse has tracks supported by each side of the container. Opposed linear tracks are supported by each side of the container. At least one lockable crossbar assembly travels along corresponding tracks at the same level. At least one lockable crossbar assembly has locking assemblies to fix the position of the lockable crossbar assembly relative to the tracks and keep product inside the container during shipment.

An assembly incorporates a main body having first and second side panels, an end panel, and first and second flaps. The end panel is disposed between the first and second side panels. The first and second flaps extend outwardly from corresponding lower edges of the first and second panels. The main body selectively exhibits a pre-assembled configuration, in which the first and second side panels, the end panel, and the first and second flaps are oriented in a first plane, and an assembled configuration, in which the first and second side panels are oriented in an overlying relationship with respect to each other with the end panel extending therebetween. The first and second flaps are overlapped and secured to form a base upon which the main body is supported as a freestanding structure. The main body defines, in the assembled configuration, a cavity configured to receive an automobile part.

A storage and transportation container for a radome of an aircraft is disclosed having a top wall, and bottom wall that are planar and parallel to one another, and a peripheral wall, wherein the top, bottom, and peripheral walls form an enclosure for supporting the radome within the container. The top wall has a closed curved outline and a surface of a dimension greater than that of the bottom wall having an outline which forms a parallelogram thus making it possible to receive the radome with its curved nose pointing downwards, and wherein the geometry of the container is matched to the form of the radome and of the hold.

A container for holding product therein during shipment and for reuse has tracks supported by each side of the container. Opposed linear tracks are supported by each side of the container. At least one lockable crossbar assembly travels along corresponding tracks at the same level. At least one lockable crossbar assembly has locking assemblies to fix the position of the lockable crossbar assembly relative to the tracks and keep product inside the container during shipment.

A container for holding product therein during shipment and being returned for reuse has at least one track supported by each side of the container. The container has at least one lockable crossbar assembly extending between opposed tracks. Each lockable crossbar assembly has one or more locking assemblies to fix the position of the lockable crossbar assembly relative to the tracks.

A method of manufacturing, packing and shipping a vehicle bumper having the steps of dispensing into a bumper mold a shape-memory composition to form an original shape of an integral shape-memory vehicle bumper having a middle portion and a first end and a second end both extending from opposite ends of the middle portion, the shape-memory vehicle bumper having the original shape fitting in a first shipping box; applying force to the shape-memory vehicle bumper such that to cause a conversion of the original shape into a deformed shape of the shape-memory vehicle bumper, the deformed shape fitting into a second shipping box that is a fraction by volume of the first shipping box; placing the shape-memory vehicle bumper having the deformed shape into the second shipping box; and sealing and shipping the second shipping box.

A container for holding product therein during shipment and for reuse has multiple levels of tracks supported by each side of the container. At least one of the tracks on each side may be linear, generally U-shaped and/or L-shaped. Dunnage supports and at least one lockable crossbar assembly travel along corresponding tracks at the same level. At least one lockable crossbar assembly has locking assemblies to fix the position of the lockable crossbar assembly relative to the tracks. Dunnage hangs from at least some of the dunnage supports for supporting products.

A container for holding product therein during shipment and being returned for reuse has at least one track supported by each side of the container. The container has dunnage supports extending between corresponding tracks at the same level. At least one lockable crossbar assembly has one or more locking assemblies to fix the position of the lockable crossbar assembly relative to the tracks. Dunnage may hang from the dunnage supports for supporting products during storage or shipment.

A shipping container includes a body defining an interior. The shipping container further includes a dunnage assembly, the dunnage assembly including a tray and a hinge, the hinge subdividing the tray into a first tray portion and a second tray portion. The dunnage assembly is movable along a transverse axis between a first position wherein the second tray portion is at least partially disposed within the interior and a second position wherein the second tray portion is entirely exterior to the body. The second tray portion is rotatable relative to the first tray portion about the hinge when the dunnage assembly is moved between the first position and the second position.
