Claim:
A packaging base for an appliance packaging system, the packaging base comprising: a) a tray with a first surface, a second surface and four corners, wherein the second surface is substantially perpendicular to the first surface; b) a first single-piece element and a second single-piece element, each single-piece element comprising: i) a first part with a first inclination, wherein said first part comprises a substantially plane part and longitudinal parts formed at the longitudinal edges of the substantially plane part, wherein the longitudinal parts extend substantially perpendicular relative to the substantially plane part of the first part; ii) a second part with a second inclination which is inverse relative to the first inclination of the first part, wherein said second part comprises a substantially plane part and longitudinal parts formed at the longitudinal edges of the substantially plane part of the second part, wherein the longitudinal parts of the second part extend substantially perpendicular relative to the substantially plane part of the second part; iii) a substantially plane center not having sides and located between the first part with the first inclination and the second part with the second inclination; iv) a substantially plane brace at each distal end of said first and second parts of said first single-piece element and said second single-piece element; c) wherein said first single-piece element and said second single-piece element are placed on the tray transversal to each other, wherein the center of said first single-piece element is positioned to overlap with the center of said second single-piece element, wherein the first brace of the first single-piece element is arranged to affixably rest on a first corner of the tray and the second brace of the first single-piece element is arranged to affixably rest on a second corner of the tray, which is diagonal relative to the first corner of the tray, wherein the first brace of the second single-piece element is arranged to affixably rest on a third corner of the tray and the second brace of the second single-piece element is arranged to affixably rest on a fourth corner of the tray, which is diagonal relative to the third corner; d) a support on each brace of said first single-piece element and said second single-piece elements.
