Abstract
An elongated packing container is intended to receive tools and other objects. In order to avoid damage to these objects upon dropping and falling of the container on the ground, a cushioning arrangement is arranged at the point of the container. The cushioning arrangement lends some play in terms of elastic movement to the side walls opening out in the point of the container, when the object in the container with its mass acceleration causes force to impact on the side walls of the container. This arrangement avoids the object's penetrating the point of the container and becoming damaged.
