Abstract
Description
- This invention relates to a carton having a reinforced handle structure which can be manipulated from a flat stowed condition into a raised condition in which it is extended upwardly above the top wall of the carton. The carton is particularly suitable for accommodating articles e.g. bottles in a group in which the articles are arranged so as to form end spaces in the article group at opposed ends of the carton. End portions of the handle structure are displacable into such end spaces when the carton is lifted by the handle so as to shorten the distance between the opposite ends of a central handle strip of the handle so that it can be upwardly moved away from the carton top wall.
- The present invention provides a carton for accommodating a plurality of articles, such as bottles, in a group in which the articles are arranged so as to form end spaces in the article group at opposed ends of the carton, said carton comprising a handle structure overlying a top wall of the carton and having end portions overlying displacable parts of the carton which are displacable inwardly into said end spaces, characterised in that said handle structure is manipulative from a flat stowed condition in which it closely overlies said carton top wall, to a raised condition in which said end portions of the handle are displaced inwardly of the carton together with said displacable parts thereof whereby the distance between opposite ends of a central handle strip of the handle structure as measured across said top wall is shortened so that it is upwardly extended.
- An embodiment of the invention will now be described, by way of example, with reference to the accompanying drawings, in which:-
- FIGURE 1 is a perspective view of a carton blank for forming a carton according to the invention;
- FIGURE 2 is a perspective view of the carton in which the handle structure is shown in a flat stowed condition;
- FIGURE 3 is a perspective view similar to that of Figure 2 and in which the handle structure is shown in its raised condition;
- FIGURE 4 is a side view of the carton in which the handle construction is shown in flat stowed condition, and
- FIGURE 5 is a side view similar to Figure 4 but showing the handle structure in its raised condition.
- Referring first to Figure 2 of the drawings, a group of bottles (not shown) arranged in six rows in a 4-5-4-4-5-4 row arrangement creates a group which conveniently can be accommodated in a generally hexagonal carton 'C' and in which end spaces S1 and S2 (Figure 3) are formed adjacent opposite end walls of the carton by virtue of the grouping arrangement. The carton 'C' is formed from a blank 10 (Figure 1) of paperboard or like foldable sheet material. The carton includes a
top 12 comprisingtop panel 14 andtop panel part 14′ together withhandle panel 16.Top panel 14 includes anend parts 14a, 14b at each of its ends which form part of anupper sloping wall 18 of the carton, each end part having foldably attached thereto a lowerend closure panel - A
displacable panel top panel 14 each displacable panel being hinged thereto at opposite ends alongfold lines top panel panels 14a and 14b.Panels transverse fold lines fold lines - The
handle panel 16 is integral withtop panel part 14′ and includes acentral handle strip 30 which is reinforced by folded over reinforcingstrip 32 hinged thereto to form a two ply handle.Handle strip 30 has foldably joinedend parts 30a. 30b at each of its ends, each end part having foldably attached thereto a lowerend closure panel - When the blank 10 shown in Figure 1 is formed into the carton 'C' the
handle panel 16 is secured totop panel 14 in overlapping relationship so thatend part 30a and lowerend closure panel 34 are superposed upon end part 14a andend closure panel 20 respectively and, similarly,end part 30b andend closure panel 36 are superposed uponend part 14b andend closure panel 22 respectively. Thus theopposite end parts displacable panels - As best seen in Figures 3 and 5, when the
handle panel 16 is grasped and the carton lifted, the handle is able to upwardly extend from its flat condition because its end parts are displaced inwardly of the carton into the end spaces present together with the top panel end parts when the frangible joins J1, J2 are broken as the carton is lifted by its handle. Thus, the distance between the opposite ends of the central handle strip is decreased as measured in a straight line across the top panel of the carton. - Referring again to Figure 1, blank 10 further comprises a
bottom wall panel 40 which is hinged totop panel 14 by means of a side wall panel assembly comprising upperside wall panel 42 which provides a part of theupper sloping wall 18 of the carton and is hinged totop panel 14 along fold line 44; an intermediateside wall panel 46 hinged to upperside wall panel 42 along fold line 48, and a lowerside wall panel 50 hinged to the intermediateside wall panel 46 alongfold line 52 and to thebottom wall panel 40 along a fold line 54. - Likewise,
bottom wall panel 40 is hinged totop panel part 14′ by means of another side wall panel assembly comprising upperside wall panel 56, which provides a part of theupper sloping wall 18 of the carton, and is hinged totop panel part 14′ along afold line 58, an intermediateside wall panel 60 hinged to upper side wall panel along a fold line 62 and a lowerside wall panel 64 hinged to the intermediateside wall panel 60 along afold line 66 and tobottom wall panel 40 along afold line 68. -
Bottom wall panel 40 carries two series of lower wall panels, one of which compriseslower corner panels panel 40 alongfold lines 74 and 76, respectively, and alower end panel 78 hinged topanel 40 alongfold line 80 and the other panel series compriseslower corner panels panel 40 alongfold lines lower end panel 90 hinged topanel 40 alongfold line 92. -
