PROTECTIVE PACKAGING FOR AMMUNITION

摘要

A package for a plurality of ammunition units, each unit having an axially elongated casing with a base and a projectile joined to the casing opposite its base, is made from a thermoformed sheet, formed to have a plurality of elongated compartments for receiving an ammunition unit. Each compartment is recessed from a planar peripheral upper surface and has a cradling surface extending along an axis of an inserted ammunition unit for supporting its casing and first and second separation walls on opposed sides of the cradling surface. At least one of the first and second separation walls has an overhanging tab, resiliently deformable relative to the other opposed separation wall to receive and grasp the casing upon insertion or to allow removal of the casing.
