The document proposes an egg holder design to transport eggs safely in the back of a truck on bumpy roads. It describes past designs using bubble wrap, foam, and cotton that protect eggs from 25-foot drops. The proposed design places each egg in a tight-fitting plastic cylinder inside its carton to restrict egg movement and prevent breaking. The design will be tested by placing egg cartons with different protective materials inside a jeep on a bumpy road.
2. What they said ?
• One group said; it makes sense and it
seems like it would work out.
• Another group said; it makes sense and
they have the same one and ours seems
more in dept then there's.
3. Problem!!
Here’s the problem, were traveling down a
bumpy road with dozens of eggs in the back
of the truck and we have to get them from
one place to another without breaking or
damaging them .what do we do ?
4. Pictures

seeing eggs. (above)

5. Idea’s….
• Online, we read that other materials used
to protect eggs from breaking are; Bubble
wrap, stiro foam, and cotton. This works
for a drop of 25ft high.
6. Explanation,
• Were going to take the egg, in it’s original container (
carton) and place a cylinder tube type plastic piece
around the egg preventing it from moving while placed
inside the carton. After wrapping the egg inside the
cylinder, tube like container you place it back in it’s
original carton with the tube tightly protecting the egg.
This protects the egg from damage. Since it will be
tightly secured, there is no room for the egg to move.
The top of the carton will act as the lid to protect the
open top, while the bottom will act as to the other open
end.
7. Idea’s we didn’t consider..
• Wrapping each egg in foam then placing it
in the carton as is, reason we decided not
to was, it was already taken.
