Method of storing for shipment prismatic objects such as laptop computer casings

Abstract

A method of storing a plurality of objects being of an identical prismatic shape and stored within an open top storage container in an up-right, compact side-by-side relationship. Each object is placed forming an acute angle with respect to both adjacent objects, so that one corner portion thereof projects from between the adjacent objects and hence is easily accessible for retrieval from the container. The container has a bottom, side-walls and an open top for storing objects having an identical prismatic shape. The bottom of the container is formed so as to staggerly recline each object in relative opposite directions.

1 . A method of storing a plurality of objects within an open top storage container, the objects being of identical prismatic shape and stored in an up-right, compact, side-by-side relationship, characterized in that each object is placed forming an acute angle with respect to both adjacent objects, so that one corner portion thereof projects from between the adjacent objects and hence easily accessible for retrieval from the container. 
   
   
       2 . The method of  claim 1  wherein each object is placed on a projection formed at the bottom of the container, the projections are arranged in a staggered relationship. 
   
   
       3 . The method of  claim 1  wherein each object is placed on a wedge-shaped support member, the members being arranged side-by-side in opposite tapering directions. 
   
   
       4 . A container for the storage of a plurality of objects within a storage container having a bottom, side-walls and an open top, the objects being of an identical prismatic shape, characterized in that the bottom of the container comprises spacing means for staggerly reclining each object in relative opposite directions. 
   
   
       5 . The container of  claim 4  wherein said spacing means comprise a respective number of projections arranged in staggered relationship. 
   
   
       6 . The container of  claim 5  wherein said spacing means comprise a respective number of elongated, wedge-shaped support members arranged side-by-side in opposite tapering directions.
