Abstract
Abstract A carton liner fabricated from a paperboard strip deformed so that triangular projections of two different sizes extend inwardly from the interior wall of a carton. The larger triangular sections include slots formed centrally within each apex edge for accommodating a platelike article having its edges disposed within the aligned slots. The smaller triangular projections provide lateral support for the article retained within the slots.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 7
Claim 1
Independent Claim
80 words
A packaging and cushioning material strip comprising a first elongated planar base ply, a second elongated ply disposed in aligned overlying relation with said first ply, said second ply including a plurality of side-by-side projections of two differently dimensioned heights, aligned slot means disposed within the outward edge of the larger of said projections for receiving an edge of an article therein, the smaller of said projections having their outward edges providing lateral support to the edge of the article.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
80 words
A packaging and cushioning material strip comprising a first elongated planar base ply, a second elongated ply disposed in aligned overlying relation with said first ply, said second ply including a plurality of side-by-side projections of two differently dimensioned heights, aligned slot means disposed within the outward edge of the larger of said projections for receiving an edge of an article therein, the smaller of said projections having their outward edges providing lateral support to the edge of the article.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
32 words
The construction set forth in claim 1 wherein each said projection is characterized as an inverted V-shape having an apex edge extending in spaced overlying relation to said first planar base ply.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
105 words
A packaging and cushioning material comprising a first elongated planar base ply, a second elongated ply disposed in aligned overlying relation with said first ply, said second ply including a plurality of adjacently positioned projections extending outwardly therefrom, said projections being of two differently dimensioned heights, slot means disposed in alignment within the outward edge of the larger of said projections for receiving an edge of an article therein, the smaller of said projections having their outward edges providing lateral support to the edge of the article, said projections being cyclically repeated at regular intervals including a first taller projection succeeded by two shorter projections.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
105 words
A packaging and cushioning material comprising a first elongated planar base ply, a second elongated ply disposed in aligned overlying relation with said first ply, said second ply including a plurality of adjacently positioned projections extending outwardly therefrom, said projections being of two differently dimensioned heights, slot means disposed in alignment within the outward edge of the larger of said projections for receiving an edge of an article therein, the smaller of said projections having their outward edges providing lateral support to the edge of the article, said projections being cyclically repeated at regular intervals including a first taller projection succeeded by two shorter projections.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
176 words
A shipping carton having peripheral walls, the interior of said carton including a packing material disposed peripherally around the interior of said walls, said packing material comprising a first elongated planar base ply, a second elongated ply disposed in secured overlying relation with said first ply, said second ply including a plurality of side-by-side projections, said plurality including two differently sized pRojections having larger and smaller heights, the larger projections further including aligned slots formed inwardly from the outward edge of the larger projections to receive the edges of an enclosed article, the smaller sized projections offering lateral support to the edges of the article, each corner of said peripherally disposed material including two smaller adjacently positioned projections oriented perpendicular to one another and in contact with each other along respective outward edges to produce corner abutments offering lateral support to the corners of an enclosed article, said packing material further adapted to retain the edges of an article in spaced relation from the interior lateral walls of the carton thereby cushioning the article against shock.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
176 words
A shipping carton having peripheral walls, the interior of said carton including a packing material disposed peripherally around the interior of said walls, said packing material comprising a first elongated planar base ply, a second elongated ply disposed in secured overlying relation with said first ply, said second ply including a plurality of side-by-side projections, said plurality including two differently sized pRojections having larger and smaller heights, the larger projections further including aligned slots formed inwardly from the outward edge of the larger projections to receive the edges of an enclosed article, the smaller sized projections offering lateral support to the edges of the article, each corner of said peripherally disposed material including two smaller adjacently positioned projections oriented perpendicular to one another and in contact with each other along respective outward edges to produce corner abutments offering lateral support to the corners of an enclosed article, said packing material further adapted to retain the edges of an article in spaced relation from the interior lateral walls of the carton thereby cushioning the article against shock.
