PACKAGING ARTICLE AND METHOD

摘要

An article of packaging, assembly and a method of manufacturing packaging for holding an object securely by a web or extensible portion formed in a single piece foldable member adapted to insert into a container or formed as an overlap panel to the container contiguous pattern. The foldable member has a planar structure with an upper surface and a lower surface. The pattern includes a platform portion, one or more side panel (s), and a web section in a predefined tessellation pattern. The web section is either integral to the pattern, or a separate web section. The web section is aligned to overlie the planar surface and is attached by an attachment portion to secure the web section to said side panels. In operation, the object is held securely in three-dimensions between the web section and the upper surface of the platform portion when the side portions are folded in a direction away from the web section thereby tightening the web section against the object between the web section and the platform portion.
