ABSTRACT:
A transport container for transporting fragile articles, such as test tubes or vials, which is able to accommodate vials of various sizes. The transport container protects the contents from forces or impact shocks associated with transport, thus preventing breakage of the vials. The transport container comprises a first body member including a spring for providing an axial bias force to a vial supported therewithin for restraining movement of the vial in a first axial direction and for urging the vial toward a second body member for proper seating therein. The second body member includes a plurality of positioning vanes which provide a yieldable restraint in a second axial direction and in the radial direction. The first and second body members are connected to form a releasable, liquid-tight seal and joint therebetween.
