Definitions

  • the flap portions extend through the cut away portions in the handle portions when the handle portions are folded down and the cut away portions in one or both of the handle portions are slightly narrower than the width of the flap portions such that, when the handle portions are folded down, the lateral edges of the flap portions are deformed so that the flap portions take up a curved form similar to that of the closure/shoulder of the bottle.
  • the device 11 is made from the paperboard blank 10 and has a base 16 which is hingedly connected at each side edge 17, 18 to a side wall 19, 20 which when assembled extend upwardly and towards each other.
  • the side walls 19, 20 are in turn hingedly connected along fold lines 21, 22 to handle portions 23, 24.
  • One handle portion 24 is hingedly connected along fold line 25 to a securing panel 26.
  • This folding of the handle portions brings the two side walls 19, 20 together at the folds 21, 22 such that the base and the two side walls form a triangular section.
  • the bringing together of the side walls 19, 20 also results in the active edges 32, 39 engaging with a snap action below the shoulders 15 of the bottles with the flaps 28 lying generally against their respective side walls. Also the snap engagement of the active edges 32, 39 below the shoulders 15 forces the flap portions 41 to hinge upwardly about the hinges 42.
  • bottles can include glass or PET or other suitable materials and can also include any suitable container having a shoulder which can be engaged in the manner described.

Un dispositif de transport (11) pour transporter deux récipients (12) ou davantage ayant chacun un épaulement annulaire (15) qui fait saillie depuis la partie de col (13), ledit dispositif de transport (11) étant formé en carton et englobant : une base (16) ayant deux ouvertures ou davantage pour recevoir les parties de col respectives (13) des récipients, deux parois latérales (19,20) qui sont inclinées relativement à la base (16) et qui s'étendent l'une vers l'autre depuis des côtés opposés de la base, une partie découpée étant formée dans chaque paroi latérale (19,20) pour chaque récipient, chaque partie découpée ayant un bord actif (32,39) généralement parallèle à la jonction paroi latérale/base, lesdits bords actifs (32,39) se mettant en prise au-dessous de côtés opposés de l'épaulement annulaire (15) du récipient associé, lesdites parois latérales (19,20) étant connectées de façon articulée à des parties de poignées (23,24) qui font saillie vers le haut, qui incorporent une poignée et dans lesquelles les parties découpées s'étendent pour accommoder les fermetures des récipients (14), les parties découpées étant dimensionnées de façon telle que, pendant l'utilisation, les parties de poignées (23,24) puissent être repliées vers le bas de manière à être adjacentes à une paroi latérale (19), caractérisé en ce qu'au moins une des parties découpées à une partie de rabat (41) dans l'une desdites parois latérales (19), ladite partie de rabat enjambant le bord actif (39) de sa partie découpée associée et qui est articulée vers le haut pour sortir du plan de l'une desdites parois latérales (19) lorsque le récipient associé (12) est en prise et que le bord supérieur d'au moins une desdites parties découpées incorpore une saillie (34) qui s'enclique au-dessous d'une au moins desdites parties de rabat (41) lorsque les parties de poignée sont repliées vers le bas adjacentes à l'une desdites parois latérales.
  2. Un dispositif selon la revendication 1, dans lequel chaque partie découpée a une partie de rabat (41) dans l'une desdites parois latérales (19) et une saillie coopérante (34) .
  3. Un dispositif selon la revendication 2, dans lequel la partie de rabat (41) a deux articulations espacées (42) avec la paroi latérale (19), toutes deux étant disposées plus près de la base que le bord actif associé (39) de la partie découpée.
  4. Un dispositif selon l'une quelconque des revendications 1 à 3, dans lequel les parties de rabat (41) s'étendent à travers les parties découpées dans les parties de poignée (23,24) lorsque les parties de poignée sont repliées vers le bas et les parties découpées dans l'une des parties de poignée ou dans les deux sont légèrement plus étroites que la largeur des parties de rabat (41) de façon telle que, lorsque les parties de poignée sont repliées vers le bas, les bords latéraux des parties de rabat (41) sont déformées de telle manière que les parties de rabat (41) prennent une forme incurvée semblable à celle de la fermeture/épaulement (14/15) de la bouteille.
  5. Un dispositif selon l'une quelconque des revendications 1 à 4, dans lequel les saillies (34) sont formées sur le bord supérieur des parties découpées dans la partie de poignée (24) qui est fixée de manière articulée à l'autre paroi latérale (20).

  7. Un dispositif selon l'une quelconque des revendications 1 à 6, dans lequel des parties au moins de la périphérie de l'ouverture se mettent en prise avec le récipient (12).
  8. Un dispositif selon la revendication 6 ou 7, dans lequel chaque ouverture sera généralement circulaire pour des récipients de section généralement circulaire (12) et chaque rabat (28) sera généralement semi-circulaire ayant un bord rectiligne face au bord diamétral (27), ledit bord rectiligne constituant l'axe d'articulation du rabat.
  9. Un dispositif selon l'une quelconque des revendications 1 à 8, dans lequel un panneau de fixation (26) s'étend depuis une partie de poignée (24) et est replié depuis le bord libre de l'autre partie de poignée (23) à laquelle il est fixé par collage.
  10. Un dispositif selon l'une quelconque des revendications 1 à 9, dans lequel le moyen de poignée est formé en découpant des éléments en forme de fente (35,43) qui demeurent raccordés de façon articulée à la partie de poignée (23,24) le long d'un pli supérieur (36,44) qui est généralement parallèle à l'articulation (21,22) entre les parties de poignée et les parois latérales, le bord inférieur des éléments en forme de fente constituant le bord supérieur des parties découpées dans les parties de poignée.
  11. Un dispositif selon la revendication 10, dans lequel les parties de poignée (23,24) sont fixées ensemble de façon adhésive immédiatement au-dessus de l'axe d'articulation (21,22) avec les parois latérales (19,20).
