ABSTRACT:
A packaging unit for the packaging of fruit or like articles, comprises a rigid open-top box-like container made of plastics, and a plurality of substantially rectangular pocket trays disposed vertically in the said container, with one side resting on the bottom of said container. Each pocket tray is made of foamed plastic sheet and presents a plurality of staggered parallel rows of upwardly directed pockets, in which the top rim of each pocket has an approximately triangular shape in plan, with curvilinear convex sides, the vertexes of each triangular pocket being arranged at a higher level than the sides joining the said vertexes, whereby two adjacent pockets of one row and the intermediate pocket of the adjoining staggered row define, in correspondence of the common vertex, a triangular pyramidal projection. The side of the triangular pyramidal projection, which is part of the said intermediate pocket, is concave. In this manner, the fruit arranged in the said intermediate pocket rests, whenever the tray is disposed in vertical arranged relation with the fruits therein, on the said concave side of the pyramidal projection.
