A clamping device secures an equipment rack during shipping. The clamping device includes a gripping portion having first and second surfaces positionable along opposing sides of a respective one of a front and rear lateral logistic bar. The clamping device also includes a clamp mechanism attached to the gripping portion for movement between a disengaged position and an engaged position to selectively engage the first and second surfaces to the opposing sides of the respective one of the front and rear lateral logistic bars positioned adjacent to an equipment rack within a carrier shipping enclosure. A mounting feature is attached to the gripping portion to hold one end of a longitudinal logistic bar positioned along a lateral side of the equipment rack.

An inflatable web is disclosed. The web includes first and second film plies sealed together via a plurality of generally transverse seals to define a first and second inflatable chambers and an inflation region. The chambers are inflatable with a fluid and operable to contain the fluid. The sealed plies have a first longitudinal edge and a second longitudinal edge. The web defines a separation region extending at least partially transversely across the web between the first and second inflatable chambers and is configured to facilitate separation thereof. The separation region includes a tear propagation line extending transversely across at least a portion of the web with an end of the tear propagation line terminating proximal to the first longitudinal edge of the web. The separation region includes a tear initiation feature including edges spaced apart from one another longitudinally to form a permanent opening in the web.

A protective shipping container that is configured to provide impact protection for items disposed in the interior volume thereof and further inhibit movement of the items during shipping. The protective shipping container of the present invention includes a body having a first side and a second side formed to create an interior volume. The body includes a separation wall having a first side and a second side. Adjacent to the first side of the separation wall are a plurality of outer air chambers. The plurality of outer air chambers are independently inflatable and extend the length of the body. An inner air chamber is adjacent to the second side of the separation wall. The inner air chamber is operable to substantially fill the interior volume of the body while surroundably conforming to the items placed therein so as to provide impact protection as well as inhibit movement thereof.

This application discloses a pallet and a packaging device. The pallet includes: a plate body configured to support stacked cargoes; and a positioning structure connected to the plate body, where the plate body includes a bottom plate, a top plate, a plurality of foot piers, and a plurality of through holes, the bottom plate is located at the bottom of the plate body, the top plate is located at the top of the bottom plate, the bottom plate is arranged parallel to the top plate, the top plate and the bottom plate are fixedly connected through the plurality of foot piers, the plurality of through holes are located between the bottom plate and the top plate, and the positioning structure is arranged in the through hole.

An inflatable web includes an inflation zone, a first inflatable panel in fluid communication with the inflation zone, and a second inflatable panel in fluid communication with the inflation zone. The first inflatable panel includes a first sheet juxtaposed on a second sheet. The first and second sheets are sealed together to form inflatable chambers. The second inflatable panel include a third sheet juxtaposed on a fourth sheet. The third and fourth sheets are sealed together to form inflatable chambers. The inflatable film is configured to be inflated by an inflation and sealing machine configured to direct gas into the inflatable chambers of the first and second inflatable panels via the inflation zone and to individually seal the inflatable chambers of the first and second inflatable panels.

Packaging sleeve for medical purposes for storing sterile objects (25, 45), consisting of at least one outer sleeve (2) that is open at one end and can be sealed with a sealing closure (10) and has an inner sleeve (12) accommodated in it with a clamping effect, wherein the inner sleeve (12) is accommodated in a clamping seating in a receiving opening (15) in the sealing closure (10) on the bottom side of the outer sleeve (2) and the clamping seat thereby formed presses the sealing ribs (7, 55, 56, 59) arranged on the outside circumference of the sealing closure (10) against the inside of the outer sleeve (2) under increased contact pressure (FIG. 1).
