An outer support in the form of a rigid outer container has resilient cushioning material, such as resilient foam, at each end. A smaller inner container is supported solely on the cushioning material and carries a fragile article to be shipped. Shock absorbing motion of the inner container is allowed by reciprocal deformation of the cushioning material at the opposite ends.

A shock absorbing package for an article comprising an outer support member having a hollow interior and opposite ends spaced apart, a cushion secured to each of said opposite ends and projecting into said interior, said cushion at each end having an inner face opposing and spaced apart from the inn

A shock absorbing package for an article comprising an outer support member having a hollow interior and opposite ends spaced apart, a cushion secured to each of said opposite ends and projecting into said interior, said cushion at each end having an inner face opposing and spaced apart from the inner face of the cushion at the other end, and an article carrier having opposite ends joined to said inner faces of said cushions for resilient support of said article carrier on said cushions, whereby shock absorbing motion of said inner carrier is accomplished by resilient deformation of said cushions, said outer support member being a rectangular box, each cushion being a pad of resilient foam having an outer face secured to an end of said box and an inner face connected to an end of said article carrier, said article carrier being a rectangular box having a top opening flap, and including a connection bracket having a portion secured to the inner face of each cushion and foldable flap members insertable into said article carrier for mechanically connecting said article carrier to said resilient pads. A shock absorbing package for an article comprising an outer rectangular box having an open interior including opposing interior end faces, two end cushions secured, respectively, to the interior end faces of said outer box, said cushions having respective outer faces joined to said end faces of said box and interior faces opposite said outer faces which interior faces are spaced apart lengthwise of said box, and an inner article carrier having planar end faces secured, respectively, to said interior faces of said cushions, said outer box and inner carrier having corresponding tops, bottoms and sides spaced apart, said carrier being connected to said outer box solely through said end cushions for enabling shock absorbing movement of said inner carrier member relative to said outer box by reciprocal action of said cushions at the opposite ends of said box, said box having four corners each approximately aligned with one of said outer faces of said cushions and parallel first score lines approximately aligned with said interior faces of said cushions for enabling said box with said cushions secured therein to be folded in parallelogram fashion into substantially flat condition. A shock absorbing package for an article comprising an outer support member having a hollow interior and opposite ends spaced apart, a cushion secured to each of said opposite ends and projecting into said interior, said cushion at each end having an inner face opposing and spaced apart from the inner face of the cushion at the other end, and an article carrier having opposite ends joined to said inner faces of said cushions for resilient support of said article carrier on said cushions, whereby shock absorbing motion of said article carrier is accomplished by resilient deformation of said cushions, and including a connection bracket having a portion secured to the inner face of each cushion and at least one foldable flap member connectable to said article carrier for securing said article carrier to said cushions. A shock absorbing package for an article comprising an outer rectangular box having an open interior including opposing interior end faces, two end cushions for supporting the article and secured, respectively, to the interior end faces of said outer box, said cushions having respective outer faces joined to said end faces of said box and interior faces opposite said outer faces which interior faces are spaced apart lengthwise of said box, said box having four comers each approximately aligned with one of said outer faces of said cushions and parallel first score lines approximately aligned with said interior faces of said cushions for enabling said box with said cushions secured therein to be folded in parallelogram fashion into substantially flat condition.
