Abstract:
Various embodiments of the present disclosure provide a dunnage bag suspender configured to suspend a dunnage bag in place before inflation and to hold the dunnage bag such that the dunnage bag can automatically pull free of the dunnage bag suspender during inflation.
Abstract:
Various embodiments provide a compact, portable dunnage bag inflation system that provides an air source that is easily carried by a user via a wearable container. Generally, the dunnage bag inflation system includes a portable dunnage bag inflator having an air generator that, in operation, expels air through an outlet. One end of a hose is removably connectable to the air generator to fluidly connect the hose and the outlet. An inflator head that includes a button actuatable to operate the portable dunnage bag inflator is connected to an opposing end of the hose. The dunnage bag inflation system also includes a rechargeable battery electrically connectable to the portable dunnage bag inflator to power the inflator and a charging station to charge the battery. This enables dunnage bags to be inflated to desired specifications at point-of-use and eliminates the need for a compressed air supply.
Abstract:
The present disclosure is directed to dunnage bags formed using polyethylene terephthalate (PET) and processes for manufacturing these PET dunnage bags. Generally, the PET dunnage bags of the present disclosure include a PET outer bag, an inner bladder enclosed within the PET outer bag, and a valve assembly that enables air to be introduced into (or escape out of) the inner bladder to inflate (or deflate) the inner bladder, thereby inflating (or deflating) the PET dunnage bag.
