Abstract
A sub unit and a packaging system including a plurality of sub units. The sub unit is formed with a tapered body having sidewalls towards a narrow end from a first opposing or outer surface at an end opposite the narrow end. The packaging system includes a plurality of sub units, wherein the sub units are configured to be positioned so that the first opposing surfaces form an outside of the packaging system.
Claims19
A packaging system comprising a plurality of sub-units and a housing with inner walls, the sub-units having a tapered structure towards a narrow end from a first opposing surface at an end opposite the narrow end, each of the sub-units being shaped as one of, a pyramid or as a frustum of a pyramid,
- wherein six stacked and detached sub-units are configured to be positioned so that they form a cube and so that first opposing surfaces of the sub-units form an outside of the cube,
- wherein a collection of cubes, which comprises a plurality of cubes and has outer boundaries, is stacked in the housing such that the outer boundaries of the collection of cubes is positioned adjacent the inner walls of the housing, and
- wherein the sub-units comprise side walls which mutually support each other force-wise when the collection of cubes is subjected to an external force.
A packaging system comprising a plurality of sub-units and a housing with inner walls, the sub-units having a tapered structure towards a narrow end from a first opposing surface at an end opposite the narrow end, each of the sub-units being shaped as one of, a pyramid or as a frustum of a pyramid,
- wherein six stacked and detached sub-units are configured to be positioned so that they form a cube and so that first opposing surfaces of the sub-units form an outside of the cube,
- wherein a collection of cubes comprises a plurality of stacked cubes and has outer boundaries, and
- wherein the collection of cubes is stacked in the housing such that adjacent cubes in the collection have respective first opposing surfaces that abut each other, and the outer boundaries of the collection of cubes is positioned adjacent the inner walls of the housing and abutting the inner walls of the housing such that a force acting on a sub-unit is transferred to the other five sub-units of the cube and further to sub-units of adjacent cubes and further to the walls of the housing.
A packaging system comprising a plurality of sub-units and a housing with inner walls, the sub-units having a tapered structure comprising four sidewalls extending from a first opposing surface towards a narrow end at an end opposite the first opposing surface, each of the sub-units being shaped as one of, a pyramid or as a frustum of a pyramid,
- wherein six stacked and detached sub-units are configured to be positioned so that they form a cube and so that the first opposing surfaces of the sub-units form an outside of the cube,
- wherein a collection of cubes, which comprises a plurality of stacked cubes and has outer boundaries, and
- wherein the collection of cubes is stacked in the housing such that adjacent cubes in the collection have respective first opposing surfaces that abut each other, and the outer boundaries of the collection of cubes is positioned adjacent the inner walls of the housing and abutting the inner walls of the housing such that a force acting on a sub-unit is transferred to the other five sub-units of the cube and further to sub-units of adjacent cubes and further to the walls of the housing.
