A system grid-like guidance device for packing goods in a case for shipping purposes is mounted to the open-topped case, providing cells to guide the emptied 'return' containers to the case floor. The case being filled, the device is removed, and the case can be inventoried and shipped. The several embodiments are fully or partially inserted into the case, forming a set of guidance cells to receive empty containers, such as bottles. One embodiment has a series of thin guidance elements extending within the box between the inserted containers. A third embodiment, has the grid of guidance members extending upwardly above the box top, to facilitate filling. Handle means are provided.
Un dispositif de guidage semblable à un quadrillage qui permet d'emballer des marchandises pour fins d'expédition est installé sur la caisse ouverte par le haut, qui fournit des cellules pour guider les récipients de retour vidés jusqu'au fond de la caisse. Une fois la caisse remplie, le dispositif est enlevé, et la caisse peut être inventoriée et expédiée. Les divers spécimens sont insérés complètement ou partiellement dans la caisse, en formant un ensemble de cellules de guidage pour recevoir des récipients vides, comme des bouteilles. Un spécimen comprend une série de minces éléments de guidage se prolongeant à l'intérieur de la caisse, entre les récipients insérés. Avec un troisième spécimen, le quadrillage se prolonge vers le haut au-dessus du haut de la caisse, pour faciliter le remplissage. Des moyens de manipulation sont fournis.
