  • the carrier comprises a foldable sheet of material which may be folded to embrace one or more bottles in a manner such that their ends are engaged by inwardly foldable flap portions and the extremities of the blank provide handles for carrying purposes.
  • the bodies of the bottles to be carried are enclosed by a cardboard band whose extremities are fixed between the bottles and are formed with handle flaps. The bottles are maintained in place by engaging the bottle necks between two infolded lateral portions of the band which are provided with notches which engage around the necks of the bottles.
  • the carrier may be made of a construction permitting a plurality of bottles to be aligned over one half portion of the band which is then folded to bring the two handle elements formed at the opposite extremities of the band into juxtaposition. The edge portions of the band are then folded inwardly to cause them to engage the necks of the bottles and to retain the bottles in position.
  • the band may be made to accommodate only a single bottle, if desired, and it may be preferably provided with cutouts or other means for facilitating the identification of the contents of the carrier such as for viewing the label of the bottle therein.
  • the end portions of the carrier which engage the bottle necks may advantageously comprise merely curved cutouts for encompassing the bottle necks or additional wing members for fastening the necks of the bottles in position.
  • an object of the invention to provide an improved carrier for bottles which comprises an encircling band with handle elements at each end which may be juxtaposed for clamping a plurality of bottles between the folded band portions and with means at the edge of the band for holding the bottle necks in position.
  • a further object of the invention is to provide a blank for forming a bottle carrier which comprises a flat sheet having a central score line for folding two side elements of the blank over one or more bottles and having end extremities of the blank formed as handle elements which may be juxtaposed with the sides of the blanks including means for forming bottle neck engaging flaps.
  • a further object of the invention is to provide a carrier and a carrier blank which are simple in design, rugged in construction and economical to manufacture.
  • FIG. 1 is a plan view of a blank for making a bottle carrier constructed in accordance with the invention
  • FIG. 2 is a side elevational View of the carrier constructed in accordance with the invention.
  • FIG. 3 is a top plan view of the carrier indicated in FIG. 2;
  • FIG. 4 is a section taken along the line IV-IV of FIG. 2;
  • FIG. 5 is a section taken along the lines V-V of FIG. 3;
  • FIG. 6 is a and FIG. 7 is a side elevational View made from the blank of FIG. 6.
  • FIG. 1 comprises a blank formed of a single sheet of material such as paper, reinforced paper, cardboard, fiberboard and the like and comprises a substantially rectangular blank sheet generally designated :1 having spaced rectilinear score lines I], c and d which demarcate end handle flaps a1, a1 and bottle overlay flaps a5 and a6.
  • the handle flaps a1, al are each provided with a marginal strip a3 of adhesive material along their boundary with the adjacent bottle overlay flaps a5 and a6, respectively.
  • Each handle flap a2 is also scored and slit in a curve to define handle cutouts g, g.
  • Each of the bottle overlay flaps a5 and a6 is provided with curvilinear score lines e and 1, respectively, which define respective bottle neck engaging flaps a4, a4.
  • the outer edges of the bottle neck engaging flaps a4, a4 are cut away and slit in order to form curved recesses having upstanding small flap elements h1 which may be folded upwardly to engage around a neck of a container (FIGS. 1, 2 and 5 plan view of another embodiment of blank;
  • the bottles be carried are oriented in a row along one of the bottle ngaging flaps a or a6.
  • the other bottle engaging flap is 16H folded over the bottles by folding along the score inc 0.
  • the flaps a4, a4 are bent inwardly long their respective score lines e and f and the curved 'penings h are oriented with the respective necks of the IOttlES which are aligned on the flap engaging portion a5 )1 a6.
  • the handles a1, al are then moved into juxtaposiion and are sealed together along the marginal adhesive rrea a3, a3.
  • the cutouts g are then either folded upwardly 1nd backwardly as indicated in FIG. 4 or one of them may )e folded into the opening defined by the other and then folded backwardly and upwardly therewith.
  • the blank of FIG. 1 may accommodate three bottles m which are oriented one against the other.
  • the bottles m are held one against the other because the spacing of the score lines b, c and d is such that three bottles will be held securely in the blank indicated in FIG. 1.
  • FIGS. 2, 3 and 5 it can be seen how the flaps a4, a4 are bent in order to insure that the notches it come to bear around the bottle necks m1 below the rim opening m2 and above the body m3 of the bottles (FIG. 5).
  • the individual bottles also be covered with a protective casing in order to insulate one body m3 from the next.
  • a blank generally designated a having score lines b, c and d defined therein in order to demarcate handle flaps a1, a1 and bottle overlay flaps a5 and a6, respectively.
  • the spacing between the score lines a, b and c are such that the carrier will accommodate only a single bottle.
  • the bottle overlay flap a5 is also provided with cutout portions or windows i and j for permitting a viewing of the label and the vintage or date, for example.
  • Score lines e and f define bottle neck engaging flaps a4, a4 on each of the bottle engaging flaps a5 and a6, respectively.
  • the bottle engaging flaps a4 are provided with score lines k, k on each side of a cutout portion h.
  • Wings a6 are formed at the exterior of each score line k and they may be folded around the bottle necks.
