A corner post/edge protector structure comprises an apex portion, a pair of leg members disposed substantially perpendicular with respect to each other, and concave/convex transitional regions integrally interconnecting the leg members to opposite ends of the apex portion. The concave/convex transitional regions define axially extending strengthening ribs for enhancing the axial or columnar compressive strength characteristics of the structure when the same is used in conjunction with stacks or tiers of packages, containers, or palletized loads. In addition, the transitional regions permit outer and inner surface portions of the leg members to be coplanar with outer and inner surface portions of the apex portion so as to facilitate or enable compact storage of the containers, packages, or palletized loads within cargo holds and storage facilities. Still further, the transitional regions enable the leg members to undergo resilient flexural movements under impressed packaging strapping loads or forces and facilitate favorable distribution of the strapping loads or forces.
Structure de protection de coins et de bords comprenant un apex, deux pattes généralement perpendiculaires l'une à l'autre, ainsi que des régions de transition concaves/convexes reliant intégralement les pattes aux extrémités opposées de l'apex. Les régions de transition concaves/convexes constituent des nervures de renforcement améliorant la résistance à la compression axiale ou colonnaire de la structure lorsque celle-ci est utilisée avec des piles ou des rangées de paquets, des conteneurs ou des charges palletisées. En outre, les régions de transition permettent aux surfaces extérieures et aux surfaces intérieures des pattes d'être sur le même plan que les surfaces extérieures et intérieures de l'apex, de manière à permettre de loger de façon compacte des conteneurs, des paquets ou des charges palletisées dans des compartiments à marchandises ou dans des installations d'entreposage. De plus, les régions de transition permettent aux pattes de résister à des mouvements de flexion sous la force de compression de charges enrubannées et facilitent la répartition de ces charges et des forces de compression.
