Holder or carrier for objects provided with a rim.

The invention "relates to a holder for at least an article with a rimmed end such as a beer, soft drink or food product containing Can. In particular, the invention is directed to a Holder designed to hold a variety of the same edged end objects close together.

Folding support or holder made of cardboard for cans are known that consist of side walls, in which edges to accommodate the Edges of a plurality of cans are incised, these holders being of the type found on the head of a plurality of cans standing in a single row. A known holder of this type is not sufficiently safe against a lateral displacement of heavier cans in the holder and another, which is more secure, requires the use of an adhesive during its manufacture.

According to the invention poll a holder for at least one object Landed end are suggested which do not necessarily involve the use of an adhesive "is necessary in its manufacture, and which is particularly secure against lateral displacement of the bordered by the holder is held item.

According to the invention there is a holder of this type, which is attached to the 'ends of the counter rods arranged in a row, which are provided with a rim is allowed to snap into place, from an end wall through which an object provided with a rim near one end two side elements are arranged, which are connected to the end wall and opposed to beiten the object set and have the edge holding devices with that formed at the end of the article Edge is heldj also are two with the side elements connected yanking walls provided, which are directed inward from "these from against the end wall and openings have to have the body part of the object in the vicinity of the To remove the edge of the object; there are also two spreading elements provided which are disposed between the end of the article and the end wall, at least a portion of each Spreizeleraentes directed outwards by a hinge line and limited by this, which the expansion element with the adjacent anchoring wall connects.

The holder according to the invention "is economical in terms of material consumption, he can from. Hand or machine applied to rimmed objects and can be made from a Cut out can be made, which is delivered to the packer in flat condition.

An example embodiment of the invention is now to

Anchoring walls 4 and 8, two outer side walls 5 and 7 and an end wall 6. Three short, slightly tapered ones Tongues 21 stand from each of the front edges 22 and 23 of the Auev pre-cut. The fold lines 13 and 16 are preferably weakened by having weakening markings or interrupted lines along them Slots are provided.

In each of the inner side walls 2 and 10, three slots are formed which form the "edge slots ¹¹ , also binding extension spreading parts 25. Each slot 24 has a central part which extends at right angles to the side edges 19, 20 of the cutout and is on its ends connected to the adjacent fold line 11 or 18 by two short parts which are arranged essentially parallel to the side edges 19, 20. Each edge slot is formed by an edge holding edge 27a and two short edges 27b central edge part 26a and two short edges 26b. If the inner side walls 2 and 10 are folded around the fold lines 11 and IB, respectively, then the extending expansion parts 25 remain essentially in the plane of the expansion walls 3 and 9. Each of the Verejakeruhgswände 4 and 8 is provided with three body-receiving openings 28. Each opening 28 is formed by a cutting edge 20 which is made of two spaced parallel straight parts 29a and 29b, which are connected by two opposing curved parts 29 £. The Verankerungewand 4 is divided into four parts 4a, 4b, and 4d 4o through the openings 28 and, similarly, is the Verankerungewand 8 in four parts 8a, 8b_ _f 8c, and divided by the openings 28 8d.

According to FIG. 2, the detail according to FIG. 1 is used on the row of three standing cans 0, which plan on one Surface, to be applied, the cutout around the fold lines 11 - 18 roughly in the shape shown in FIG.

folds, the short tapered tongues 21 snap against the marginal edge portions 29a of the body- receiving openings 28, whereby the group of walls 8, 9 and 10 and the group of walls 2, 3 and 4 are each held in a substantially triangular relationship to one another . Although the tongues 21 are provided to conveniently hold the groups of walls in place before the holder is placed on the ends of the cans, these tongues 21 can be omitted if desired Fold lines 12 and 17 are then arranged on the upper ends of the cans 0 in the manner shown in Figure 2, with each of the three pairs of mutually associated openings 28 in the anchorage walls 4 and 8 approximately centrally above the respective can are arranged.

To place the holder on the upper parts of the cans, the end wall 6 simply pushed down.

From Figure 3 it can be seen how the converging inner side walls 2 and 10 as well as the anchoring walls 4 and 8 have guided the holder onto the cans. It is therefore not necessary to align the holder precisely with respect to the row of cans when the holder is on the ends of the cans, as in Figure 2 is shown, arranged.

From Figure 3 it can also be seen that the inner side walls 2 and 10 incline outwards in the area of the edges 27 <a holding the edges through the edge R of the can 0. Happen the edge holding the edge 27a the edge R, so they snap back inwards into the position shown in FIG. 4 holding the edge. The end edges 22 and 23 of the inner side walls 2 and 10 held against fold lines 13 and 16, prevent the outer side walls 5 and 7 from falling down

909834/0879

move upwards opposite the cans G, the walls of the holder will therefore be locked in place until it is .desirable to remove the cans from the holder.

Figure 4 shows how the lower ends of the outer side walls be held firmly inward by the anchoring walls 4 and 8 and also shows how the lateral displacement of the cans in the direction of the row of cans and in the direction at right angles to the row of cans through the anchoring and side walls is prevented. Obviously, preventing the cans from shifting sideways in one direction is under right angles to the row of cans extremely important, which ensures is that the edges holding the edge do not detach from the edges of the cans, for example when the carrier or Holder packaging is shipped together with others.

Figure 5 shows the structurally fixed or strong arrangement of the folded walls of the holder, whereby the minimum Distraction of the holder when he is being handled is ensured.

As can be seen from Figures 4 and 3, the edges 26a of the extension spreading parts 25 ground against the walls of the Holder in the areas of the Paltlinien 14 and 15 pressed. Will therefore the holder is pushed onto the cans, so the ends of the expansion walls 3 and 9 are inwardly at the split lines 12 and 17 shifted against each other. Thus, the outer side walls 5 and 7 are inwardly against each other by the expansion walls 4 and 8 are drawn and the inner side walls 2 and 10 are thus drawn towards one another. One advantage of the holder can be seen in that the application of the holder to the cans is facilitated by the side walls, which more and more inward through the anchoring walls are pulled as the application increases.

During the process, "where the keeper goes on and on is pushed onto the cans, a toggle-like effect is achieved through the expansion walls by removing the inward-facing ones Movement of the ends of the expansion walls 3 and 9 at the fold lines 12 and 17 more and more with respect to the downward movement of the holder decreases. Another advantage of the holder is that it makes it easier to apply the holder to the cans by an increasingly greater inward force the expansion joints on the anchoring walls with respect to the downward directed force is exerted on the holder, which is necessary (i to generate the inward force at all.

Again, during the process in which the holders are pushed onto the cans, the fold lines 1, 1 and 18 are pushed inwardly towards one another by the extension spreading parts 25 and thus four the inner side walls 2 and 10 are pushed closer and closer by the fold lines 11 and 18 pulled against the cans. Another advantage of the colder is that the application of the holder to the cans is facilitated by the fold lines 11 and 13, which are pushed more and more inward by the extending, price parts 25 as the application process proceeds. Here again a kneoelartiger Uifekt is accomplished by the inwardly .oeweguii. "J? Altlinien 11 and 18 always lower with respect to the will of the holder of rcerichteten down movement. Another \ ^r o.vteil the holder is thus to be seen in that the application of the "! is age facilitates onto the cans by an increasingly Ti ¹ O." ere inwardly directed force by the fold lines 11 and 1o aui the inner side walls, 2 and 10 with respect to the AUI the iialter downward Force is exerted which is natwenai. :: to create this inward force.
