PACKAGING SYSTEMS AND ASSOCIATED CONTAINERS, DUNNAGE PANELS, BLANKS, AND METHODS
A packaging system includes a container defining an internal volume. The container includes a container body and a lid hingedly connected to the container body. The packaging system further includes a dunnage panel received in the internal volume of the container. The dunnage panel includes a plurality of discontinuous lines of weakness.
PACKING MATERIAL AND METHOD OF PACKING AN OBJECT IN A SHIPPING BOX
A packing material including a strip of corrugated cellulosic material and a method of packing an object in a shipping box using the packing material. The strip of corrugated cellulosic material includes a plurality of macro flutes and is moveable between an expanded state and a compressed state. The strip of corrugated cellulosic material is in the compressed state when a compression force is applied to the strip of corrugated cellulosic material in the longitudinal direction and in the expanded state when the compression force is removed. The length of the strip of corrugated cellulosic material is longer in the expanded state than the compressed state.

Trilobular packaging element
A trilobular packaging element, including at least some of a sheet extending from a first terminal end to a second terminal end and including one or more alternating ridges and grooves, wherein the length of the sheet is defined between a terminating proximal end and a terminating distal end; a first extension portion defined along a portion of the sheet; a central portion defined along a portion of the sheet, extending from the first extension portion; and a second extension portion defined along a portion of the sheet, extending from the central portion to the terminating distal end, wherein the sheet is formed to be bent or folded between the first extension portion and the central portion and between the central portion and the second extension portion such that a portion of the second extension portion overlaps a portion the first extension portion to form a deformable hollow.
BUFFER PACKAGING
A buffer packaging is provided. The buffer packaging includes a main body and at least one support plate. The main body is stretchable in a stretching direction and includes at least one receiving hole. The at least one support plate is connected with the main body and is swingable between a first position and a second position.

Vehicle fuel tank for improved crashworthiness
A compartment for storing fuel in a vehicle having a protective outer structure and an inner structure. The protective outer structure is maintained in position relative to the vehicle during normal operation of the vehicle. The inner structure, which holds fuel, is positioned in the outer structure. The inner structure is maintained in position relative to the outer structure and relative to the vehicle during normal operation of the vehicle. During an impact to the vehicle, the inner structure is configured to move independent of the outer structure.

Hourglass shaped packaging element
An hourglass shaped packaging element, including at least some of a sheet that includes one or more alternating ridges and grooves formed between a terminating proximal end and a terminating distal end of the sheet; a first sheet portion defined along a portion of the sheet, wherein the first sheet portion extends from the terminating proximal end of the sheet; and a second sheet portion, defined along a portion of the sheet, wherein the second sheet portion extends from the first sheet portion to the terminating distal end, wherein the sheet is bent or folded between the first sheet portion and the second sheet portion such that a portion of the sheet proximate the terminating distal end overlays a portion of the sheet proximate the terminating proximal end to form a deformable hollow defined within at least a portion of the sheet.
