MOLDED PULP CUSHIONING MATERIAL - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18436056 titled 'MOLDED PULP CUSHIONING MATERIAL

The molded pulp cushioning material described in the patent application is designed to accommodate an object with specific dimensions and surfaces.

  • The material includes two walls with support protruding portions that line up in different directions to provide a secure fit for the object.
  • The first wall has first support protruding portions in the first direction, while the second wall has second support protruding portions.
  • The distances between the first support protruding portions are smaller than the distances between the second support protruding portions, ensuring a snug fit for the object.

Potential Applications: - Packaging materials for fragile items - Protective cushioning for electronic devices during shipping - Inserts for custom packaging solutions

Problems Solved: - Ensures a secure fit for objects with specific dimensions - Provides cushioning and protection during transportation - Reduces the risk of damage to delicate items

Benefits: - Improved protection for fragile objects - Customizable design for various shapes and sizes - Eco-friendly material that is biodegradable

Commercial Applications: Title: "Customized Packaging Solutions with Molded Pulp Cushioning" This technology can be used in industries such as electronics, consumer goods, and medical equipment for secure and sustainable packaging solutions.

Questions about Molded Pulp Cushioning: 1. How does the distance between the support protruding portions impact the fit of the object? The distances between the support protruding portions determine how snugly the object fits within the cushioning material. Smaller distances ensure a tighter and more secure fit.

2. What are the potential environmental benefits of using molded pulp cushioning materials? Molded pulp cushioning materials are biodegradable and eco-friendly, reducing the environmental impact of packaging waste.


Original Abstract Submitted

Provided is a molded pulp cushioning material that allows at least a part of an accommodation target object having a first outer surface, two second outer surfaces, and two third outer surfaces to fit in a first direction and that includes a first wall and a second wall. First support protruding portions protruding in the first direction are formed on the first wall. Second support protruding portions are formed on the second wall. The first support protruding portions are lined up in the second direction and in the third direction. The second support protruding portions are lined up in the third direction. A distance between the two first support protruding portions adjacent to each other in the second direction and a distance between the two first support protruding portions adjacent to each other in the third direction are smaller than a distance between the two adjacent second support protruding portions.
