Container with shock-absorbing insert

摘要

A specialized container is ideally suited to protecting electronic boards being transported from injury due to physical shock and electrostatic shock. The container consists of an outer shell and at least one insert. The outer shell and each insert can be made of electrostatic discharge protective corrugated fiberboard material. The outer shell is basically a rectangular prism, suitable for receiving a electronic board with a substantially rectangular base. A first insert is easily placed within the outer shell, consisting of a platform on which the board will rest and at least one resilient and compressible support member extending down from the platform to the bottom panel of the outer shell. To provide further protection for the board, a second insert may be placed on top of the first, with a tab extending downward from the second insert to a slit in the first insert platform. The board then rests on the platform of the second insert. This second insert may have one or more extension members which cushion the sides and top of the board.
