Conformable pliable produce storage insert

摘要

The invention is a conformable pliable storage insert device configured for placement within a basket, and corresponding storage system and method of storing and transporting. The insert device comprises an overall planar and circular configuration defining a planar circular central base having a circumscribing arcuate edge in continuity thereby defining the circular central base, and a plurality of separate planar extensions radially extending distally relative to the base in adjacent circumscribing series, each of the extensions having a pair of arcuate side edges, a proximal edge and a distal edge. The extensions are independently attached to a corresponding arcuate edge portion of the base, and the proximal edge of each planar extension is flexibly attached to the circular central base edge through a hinge panel such that a portion of each arcuate side edge of the extension is structured to overlap the arcuate side edge of an adjacent extension.

1. A produce storage insert device comprising:
a planar configuration defining a circular central base having a continuous arcuate edge circumscribing to thereby define the circular central base; a plurality of separate planar extensions radially extending distally relative to the planar circular central base in adjacent circumscribing series thereto, each of the extensions having a pair of arcuate side edges, a proximal edge and a distal edge; wherein each one of the extensions is independently attached to a corresponding arcuate edge portion of the planar circular central base; wherein the proximal edge of each of the planar extension is flexibly attached to a corresponding arcuate edge portion of the circular central base through a flexible hinge panel; and whereby at least a portion of each arcuate side edge of the extension is structured to overlap the arcuate side edge of an adjacent extension.
