ABSTRACT:
An improved synthetic resin support for fluorescent tubes is provided which uses a minimum of synthetic resin material in the manufacture thereof, while at the same time giving entirely adequate support and protection against breakage of packed fluorescent tubes. The supports of the invention are in the form of an integral preformed synthetic resin body presenting a plurality of elongated, fore and aft extending, open-top tube-receiving concave regions together with top wall sections between the respective tube-receiving concavities formed in a sawtooth configuration to provide additional support against crushing and tube breakage. The preferred supports in accordance with the invention are also provided with specially configured upwardly and downwardly diverging, alternating wall sections along the length of the concavities thereof for simultaneous supporting upper and lower fluorescent tubes within a carton. Stacking lugs are provided with the supports so as to facilitate formation of machine-dispensable stacks of the supports so that automated processing with the supports of the invention is facilitated.
