Abstract
ABSTRACT
A carton has one wall (12, 12X) which comprises security panel means (24 : 71, 71X) which can be opened to gain access to the contents of the carton and a handle panel assembly (70, 72 : H1, H2) which can be manipulated from a flat stowed position in which it overlies the security panel means to an upright position relative to the security panel means for use in carrying the carton.
Access to the security panel means is gained by separating one part of the handle panel assembly from an attached adjacent part.

S Elongate reinforcing panel 52 is hinged along the unattached transverse edge of inner end panel 26a along transverse fold line 54 and terminates in end tab 56 secured to panel 52 along fold line 58. Likewise, elongate reinorcing panel 62 is hinged along the unattached transverse edge of inner end panel 28a, along transverse fold line 64 and terminates in end tab 66 secured to panel 62 along fold line 68.
The handle panel Hl includes a reinforcing top strip Sl foldably joined to an upper portion ha of the handle panel by transverse fold line 70. A male locking panel 72 is struck centrally from handle panel H1 which is hinged along fold line 50 to side panel 16 and includes a protruding locking tab 74 foldably join~d to panel 72 along fold line 76. Handle panel Hl also includes hand cushioning flap 78 disposed adjacent the free end of locking tab 74.
Inner top end closure panels 34a and 42a are hinged to side end closure panels 80 and 82 by means of foldable gusset panels 84 and 86 respective1y. ~he side end closure panels 80, 82 are hinged to opposite ends of the side wall panel 16 along fold lines 88 and 90 respectively.

At the opposite end o~ the blank shown in Figure 1, the outer handle panel assembly 12b comprises a central handle panel H2 to each of the opposite ends of which is attached an outer end panel portion ~6b and 28b by maans of cut and score linas 30a and 32a respectively.
Outer end panel portion 26b is hinged to inner top end closure panel 34b by means of spaced ~old lines 36a and 38a. Likewise, outer end panel portion 28b is hinged to outer top end closure panel 42b by means o~ spaced ~old lines 44a and 46a.
The central handle panel H2 and each o~ the end panel portions 26b, 28b has one of its ends hinged to side wall panel 18 along a common fold line 50a.
Outer top end closure panels 34b and ~2b are hinged to side end closure panels 80a and 82b by means o~ foldable gusset panèls 84a and^86a respectively. The side end closure panels 80a, 82a are hinged to opposite ends of side wall panel 18 along iold lines 88a and 90a respectively.
Elongate reinforcing panel 52a is hinged along the unattached transverse edge of inner end panel 26b along transverse iold line 54a and terminates in end tab 56a secured to panel 52a along fold line 58a.
~ . ', ~ ~-', ' 7~5 Likewise, elon~ate relnforcing panel 62a is hinged along the unat~ached transverse edge of inner end panel 28b along transverse fold line 64a and terminates in end tab 66a secured to panel 62a along fold line 68a.
The handle panel H2 includes a reinforcing top strip S2 foldably ioined to the handle panel by transverse fold line 70a. A female locking panel 72a is struck centrally from handle panel H2 which is hinged along ~old line 50a to side panel 18 and includes a locking slit 92. Handle panel H2 also includes hand cushioning flap 78a disposed ad;acent the locking slit 92.
The remainder of the blank includes bottom wall 14 hinged 15 to side wall 16 along fold line 94 and side wall panel 18 is hinged to bottom wall 14 along fold line 96. Bottom wall 14 has bottom end closure flaps 98, 100 hinged at opposite ends thereof along fold lines 102, 104 respectively.
~0 In order to bring the blank into a flat folded sleeve, reinforcing panels 52/56; 62/66 and Sl are given an appllcation of glue and folded inwardly of the blank through 180 degrees and are secured to underlying 2~ portions of the blank and likewise reinorcing panels . . , . -. - . . .

52a/56a; 62a~66a and S2 also are given an application of glue, folded inwardly of the blank through 180 degrees and are secured to adjacent portions o~ the blank. Thus, a multi-ply thickness o~ material is present around the handle panels Hl and H2. Thereafter the whole blank assembly to the left side of fold line 50 is folded through 180 degreas towards the opposite end of the blank about fold line 50 into supexposed relationship with side wall panel 16. Thereafter handle panel H1 is folded back upon itsel~ to expose the rein~orcing strip S1 which is thereby uppermost when the blank is viewed in plan. The opposite end of the blank to the right side of fold line 96 including handle panel H2 together with end portions 26b, 28b and upper end closure panels 34b, 42b are folded through 180 degrees about fold line 96 and the folded over reinforcing strip S2 o~ handle panel H2 is secured in the exposed reinforcing strip S1 o handle panel H1.
Simultaneously, outer end panel portions 26b and 28b including their reinforcing panels are secured in superposed relation~hip to inner end panel portions 26a and 28a, respectively, while outer top end closure panels 34b and 42b are secured in superposed rela-tionship to inner end closure panels 34a and 42a, respectively.
Locking tab 74 of ~he locking panel 72 is inserted into locking slit 92 in panel 72a to detachably secure those panels together and thereby form a security panel extending between the carton sidewalls.

' . ~ ' . ' ~ ' , - ' ' Z~Z~5 g The flat sleeve thus formed can thereafter be erected, loaded and then closed by mutually securing its end closure flaps.
In order to lift and carry the carton, the composite handle thus formed is grasped by means of the registered hand gripping apertures (defined by the hand cushioning ~laps as seen in the blank) and raised away from the top wall o the carton about fold line 'f' between upper and 1~ lower portions o~ the handle panel (Figures 2 & 3) but leaving the other portions of the handle panel Hl and H2 ln position thereby forming a part of the top wall. In order to gain access to the security panel the frangible joints provided by cut and fold lines 30, 30a and 32, 32a are torn to separate the handle panels from the ad~acent inner and outer end panel portions 26a, 2~b and 2~a, 28b whereafter the handle panels are separated from one another. In order ~o gain access to the contents o~ the carton through the top wall, the locking panels 72 and 72a are unlocked by disengaging the locking tab 74 rom the locking slit 92 and thus separating the handle panels~. The handle panels can however be brought together agaln or use in carrying the carton again if desired.
