ABSTRACT:
A shipping container for holding a variable number of drill bits immobile, thereby preventing potentially damaging contact of the drill bit points with interior walls of the container has a concave base section hingedly connected to a symmetrically-shaped lid section which is pivotable downwards into contact with the base to form a closed, rectangular box-like enclosure. Rows of cylindrical pins protrude upwards from the upper surface of the bottom wall of the base and are adapted to be insertably received in bores provided into the lower surface of an elongated, slab-shaped drill bit carrier, each row of pins thus holding a separate carrier in a horizontally fixed position relative to the base. A plurality of parallel vertically disposed, longitudinally spaced apart drill bit bores extending downward into each carrier from the flat upper surface of the carrier is adapted to insertably receive a plurality of drill bits, the shank of each drill bit being fitted with an annular insertion depth-limiting ring near the junction of the shank with the fluted cutting region of the drill bit. The lid is provided with a plurality of retainer plates which protrude downwards from the lower surface of the top wall of the lid. With the lid in a downward, closed position, as separate plate is positioned between adjacent pairs of drill bit bores, the lower surface of the plate being positioned just above the upper surface of insertion rings on bits positioned in the bores, thereby limiting upward movement of the rings and attached drill bits.
