4 Claims. (Cl. 206-65) This invention relates to an article carrier and more particularly to a container for packaging and carrying articles such as cylindrical cans or the like.
Article carriers or cartons of this type must be relatively inexpensive, must be made so that they can be folded flat for shipment and storage and must be easy to fill. One of the problems encountered in designing satisfactory carriers is that of holding the articles securely in the carrier against accidental removal while permitting relatively easy removal of the articles when desired. Carriers as heretofore constructed have utilized cut-outs or relatively complex flap structures for this purpose which are expensive to form or are wasteful of material and which are difficult to handle in filling the carriers.
It is one of the objects of the present invention to provide an article carrier which is extremely economical to manufacture, easy to fill and which holds the article securely in place when it is filled.
According to one feature of the invention, no cutouts or complicated flaps requiring gluing or other fastenings are employed to hold the articles in the carrier. According to another feature the carrier is formed of a simple sheet of paper board or the like folded and glued with a single seam preferably falling at the center of the top or bottom panel to define an open ended container.
Another object is to provide an article carrier in which the articles are held in at the ends of the container by simple foldable flaps and webs at the ends of certain of the container panels which are held in folded position by engagement with the articles in the container.
A further object is to provide an article carrier which is easily formed with or without handles.
A still further object is to provide an article carrier which is made in the form of a simple rectangular container to receive single or multiple rows of articles or in the form of a container with a central partition to receive separated double rows of articles.
When a handle is desired it may easily be formed by cutting out handle portions at the ends of the sheet in the case of a simple rectangular container or by laminating handle portions intermediate the edges of the top panel and at the end of the central partition in containers employing a central partition.
The above and other objects and features of the invention will be more readily apparent from the following description when read in connection with the accompanying drawings, in which:

Figure 7 is an elevation of the blank from which the container of Figure 6 is formed;
Figure 8 is an end view of the container of Figure 6 in flattened condition;
Figures 9, 10 and 11 are partial sections on the lines 99, 10-10 and 11-11, respectively, of Figure 6;

Figure 13 is an elevation of the blank from which the container of Figure 12 is formed;
Figure 14 is an end elevation of the container of Figure 12 in partially flattened condition; and
Figure 15 is a section on the line 15-15 of Figure 12.
The basic container, as shown in Figure 1, is adapted to hold a plurality of articles illustrated as right circular cylindrical cans 10 of the type in which various beverages are commonly packaged and sold. The container, as will be understood, may be made of any desired size to hold any desired number of cans or other articles in single or multiple rows. It will further be understood that the container of the invention is not limited to use with right circular cylindrical articles but can be used with cylindrical articles of octagonal, hexagonal or rectangular section equally well. As shown in the drawing, the container holds six cans in two side-by-side rows of three cans.
The container is formed of a single sheet of paper board, or the like, cut into a blank, as illustrated in Figure 2, to provide a bottom panel 11, side panels 12 and 13 and partial top panels 14 and 15. The top panels may be glued together by means of a line of adhesive 16 along the edge of one of the top panels which will overlap the edge of the other top panel, as seen in Figures 1, 3 and 4, to form a complete rectangular container with open ends. It will be noted that the container is formed with only a single glued seam which extends centrally across the top panel and serves to reinforce this panel as well as greatly simplifying the construction and erection of the container.
At the ends of the side panels 12 and 13 integral flaps 17 are provided which are foldably connected to the end panels to be folded in between the inner surfaces of the end panels and the articles in the container. To the ends of these flaps and to the ends of the adjacent top and bottom panels integral webs 18 are foldably .connected and are preferably provided with central fold lines parallel to the folding joint between the side and top and bottom panels. It will be understood that in forming the blank the several parts are cut out as shown in the outline and that the several fold lines between adjacent panels and between the panels, the flaps and the webs are scored for easy folding.
The containers can be shipped either glued or unglued in fiat condition to the point of filling and can be filled while glued or can be glued during filling, as desired. Figure 3 illustrates the partially flattened condition of the container with the edges of the top panel portions overlapping and with the side panels folded flat against each other. In this condition in which the containers are shipped and stored, the flaps and webs lie in the planes of the panels in flat condition, as shown in Figure 3.
To fill the container, it is erected as illustrated in Figure 4 with the flaps and webs still lying in the planes of the panels and projecting outward from the ends of the container so that the cans 10 or other articles can easily be inserted in the ends of the container. When the container is filled, the flaps 17 are folded in to lie between the container and the articles therein, as clearly shown in Figure 5. This operation can easily be performed even while the articles are in the container since the flaps will bend around and pass between the side panels and the articles. When the flaps are so folded, the webs.18..extend.a.c1'ossv the corners of the container and engage the end and side portions of the articles in the container to hold them against accidentalremoval. It willibe-noted that theiflaps and webs require very little materialandwarezsecuredtim;
holding condition without the necessitymfany gluing or other fastening so that the container is extremely lnexpena sive and can easily be filled.
With the flaps folded in, as shown inFigures 1i and-.5,.
the articles are securely held against accidental removal through the ends of the container in all normal storage.
and handling operations. When" it is desired to remove the articles the flaps. 17 can'be' pulled out by handwith: relatively little effort to open the endsof the container completely so that thearticles can easily be taken there from.
Figures 6 to 11 illustrateamodification of the construction of Figures 1 to 5 -wherein a reinforced-handle isprovided at the top of the container for easy carrying. The several partsin Figures 6 to 11 corresponding to like. parts in Figures 1' to 5' are indicated by the same reference numerals plus 100.
In this-construction, the ends of the top panel portions 114 and 115 are formed with handle cut-outs 121 and 122- of generally U-shape foldably connected to the panel,
portions. V In cementing the panel portions together. one of the handle cut-outs is folded back over the top-of its adjacent panel audits inner surface is cemented to the inner surface of 'the opposite handle portion at the. samestored in flattened condition, as illustrated in Figure 8,.
which shows the container partially folded. In this condition the handles will lieflat against one side of the top panel andthe-side panels will lie parallel to each other in face-to-face relation; The container can be erected and' filled in the same manner as'the container of Figures 1 to'S'and in the filled container'the handles maybe folded flat against the'top panel, if desired, to' save space in storage or shipment.
Figures 12 to 15 illustrate still another embodiment in which the container is formed with, a central divider panel to separate adjacent rows of articles. This construction is formed from a single integral blank of paper board, or the like, as shown in Figure 13, which is cut and scored to provide a bottom'panel' portion foldably connected to a side panel 26 which is inturn foldably conneeted to a top panel portion 271 The'toppa'nel portion is provided with a handle cut-out 28- foldablyjoined to a handle cut-out 29 at an adjacent top panel portion 31. The top panel portion 31'isfoldably joined to a; side panel 32 which is in turn foldably joined tothe remaining.
To assemble this container the bottom panel portion. 25 is folded around to connect to the bottom panel portion 33 adjacent to the fold line between the panel portion 33 and the central divider panel 34. The central divider panel. 34 is folded tolie between the side panels 26 and. 32 with the handle portion 35 extending between the handle portions 28 and 29. The three handle portions. are cemented together and the extensions at the side of the handle portions 28 and 29' on the toppanel portions 27 and 31 are overlapped and cemented together. This completes assembly of the container with cementing: only at two places centrally of the top and bottom panels.v
In assembled condition, the container can be folded flat, as indicated in- Figure 14, for" easy shipment'and" storage and can be erected to the position shown in Figure 12 for filling. When folded, the handle will fold flat against the top panel so that it occupies a minimum of space and can even be folded fiat against the top panel after the container is erected for shipment and storage.
The ends of the side panels 26 and 32 are formed with foldable flaps 36 andfoldable webs 37 similar to the webs 1-8 or 118 arefoldably joined to the ends of-the'fiaps andthe ends of the adjacent top and bottom panels. When the container is filled the flaps 36 are folded in between the side panels and the articles in the container in the same'mannerasin Figures l to 11 so that the webs'37 will extend across'the corners of the container open ends to hold the articles therein against accidental removal. In this construction, however, the articles are separated by the central dividing panel 34 which also substantially increases the' strength of the carrier.
While three embodiments of the invention have been shown and described herein, it will beunderstood that they are illustrative only and not to-be taken as a definition of the scope of theinvention, reference being'had for this purpose to the appended claims.
