SUSPENSION PACK BOX DESIGNS, BLANKS AND METHODS

摘要

Box designs, blanks for forming boxes, boxes formed thereby, and manufacturing methods therefor are disclosed. Preferably the boxes are formed from cardboard or other corrugated material and include suspension packs for securely shipping items such as, for example and not by way of limitation, wine bottles, candles, and cell phones. Each box includes suspension panels that extend from a top panel of the lid of the box. The ends of the suspension panels are bound such that on or more items placed between the suspension panels through a top opening of the box when the lid is open are contained between the suspension panels in a suspended location above a bottom panel of the box and at spaces to the end and side panels of the box. The suspension panels may include hinges defined by perforated lines or fold lines for conforming to shapes of and thereby cradling the items.
