ABSTRACT:
A suspension package includes a frame having first and second opposed ends. Two C-shaped product restraints are mounted to pivotable flaps at respective ends of the frame. The product restraints extend around three sides of a product being packaged, and outward rotation of the flaps shortens the effective length of the product restraints, thereby tensioning the product restraints and suspending the product in place in the frame. A simple mechanism is provided for allowing a user to adjust the effective length of the product restraints. Another suspension package applies suspension forces only to two opposed lateral sides of the product, avoiding contact with the top and bottom surfaces of the product. Tensioning flaps can be oriented to pivot along a line in a plane parallel either to the end or to the sides of the frame.
