Abstract
A unitary product cushioning structure for supporting a shock sensitive product in an outer packaging container, together with co-packaged accessories to be placed also in the same outer packaging container is formed of a moldable resilient plastics material. Shock absorption protection and impact protection from the co-packaged accessories during shock loading conditions in three mutually perpendicular directions is provided. A a product supporting region is defined by walls and a product supporting platform, and is surrounded by flexible shock absorbing spring transition sections arranged inwardly of outer container contacting walls. A void is formed beneath the platform, which is ribbed so as to provide a further barrier to protect the shock sensitive device from impact or contact from any co-packeged accessory.
