Patent ID: 7584851

Claim:
A container for shipping a plurality of devices, comprising: a shell forming an internal volume defined in part by opposing walls spatially disposed across a substantially constant height of the internal volume; a first insert having a substantially planar first surface and an opposing substantially planar second surface comprising: a plurality of rows of first ribs extending from the planar first surface to distal surfaces a plurality of partitions disposed opposite the first ribs to form a plurality of first compartments recessed into the planar second surface, each of the first ribs are aligned with one of the first compartments; wherein each row of first ribs includes a beam extending in a first direction and interconnecting aligned first and second portions of each first rib in each row, each aligned first and second portions of each first rib are offset from the first and second portions of each first rib in an adjacent row of first ribs; a second insert having a substantially planar third surface and an opposing substantially planar fourth surface, a plurality of second ribs extending from the planar third surface to distal surfaces, and a plurality of partitions disposed opposite the second ribs to form a plurality of second compartments recessed into the planar fourth surface, each of the second ribs are aligned with one of the second compartments; wherein the first insert and the second insert are matingly engageable with each other to fit within the internal volume of the shell so that each first compartment aligns with each second compartment to cooperatively define a cavity sized to receivingly engage only one of the devices, and wherein distal surfaces of the opposing first ribs and second ribs are spatially separated by a distance that is substantially equivalent to the height of the internal volume; and wherein the first insert and the second insert include a plurality of first recesses positioned between the first ribs and a plurality of second recesses positioned between the second ribs, the plurality of first recesses recessed into the planar first surface to form the plurality of partitions opposite the first ribs and the plurality of second recesses recessed into the planar third surface to form the plurality of partitions opposite the second ribs.
