Definitions

• the invention relates to a carrier according to the preamble of patent claim 1.
• multipacks In parallel to the usual bottle crates, so-called multipacks have been used more and more recently, which represent a carrying unit made up of about four to eight bottles.
• Such multipacks are usually made of cardboard, but this has the disadvantage that the ner pack can tear easily and is then no longer load-bearing.
• Another disadvantage is that empty packaging cannot be returned with the ner pack and the ner pack also means waste, so to speak. The carton loses its strength even when used in a damp environment, which is very problematic with the multipacks.
• multipacks with film wrapping in the form of a shrink film are used.
• the disadvantage of such shrink film packaging is that these multipacks have a rather ugly and cheap appearance, so that the use of shrink films for high-quality goods is in itself prohibited.
• Another very important disadvantage is that it is often very difficult to open the shrink film and sometimes a tool is required to tear the film open.
• the film material is a problematic material for recyclability because this film material is often simply thrown away.
• the object of the invention is to provide an alternative here which overcomes the disadvantages described above, is lightweight and allows easy handling.
• the connecting bars can then also be used as a handle.
• the support webs are connected in one piece and in an articulated manner, preferably via film hinges, to the carrier base.
• the support structure is expediently designed so that the bottles can be removed from above and reinserted.
• the supporting frame or the carrier can be used both as one-way and as reusable packaging and can also be used in particular for the return transport of empty bottles.
• the carrier is expediently formed from a recyclable plastic with high strength. Polyethylene terephthalate is particularly suitable for this.
• the support members, the connecting webs and the support base are of extremely thin-walled design, to be precise on film thickness, the thicknesses preferably being in the range from 0.1 to 0.6 mm, in particular 0.2 to 0.4 mm.
• the thickness is therefore comparable to the wall thickness of conventional yoghurt cups. This results in a very lightweight construction, which nevertheless offers a stable hold of the multipacks, can be handled comfortably and can also be used for the return transport of the empty bottles.
• connection it is also possible for the connection to take place over the floor, for which purpose the support floor is then expediently divided into two floor halves, which are equipped with corresponding latching or snap connection elements.
• the support members are expediently adapted to the shape of the bottle on their inner surface.
• support sleeves can expediently be provided in the carrier base, but in particular also in the area of the bottle receiving sections, bump-like projections into which the closure caps of bottles of a lower stack position can engage. NEN. This enables a stable stacking of these carriers as well as good load transfer via the bottles of the carriers stacked one above the other.
• the carrier is box-like or pocket-like and has four side walls and a box bottom.
• the box bottom is designed to be foldable and the side walls can be folded laterally via joints, in particular film hinge joints.
• the carrier has a box bottom and a circumferential support frame arranged above the box bottom as well as two foldable side walls arranged opposite one another.
• the foldable hinged side walls are preferably guided in their upper area on the frame bar. If the side walls are folded inwards, the support frame reaches the box bottom, so that the box requires only a small transport volume for the return transport.
• the bottom of the box is expediently equipped with a compartment in order to ensure that the bottles are held in a stable manner.
• the bottom of the box has a height that is just sufficient for a certain protective function of the bottles.
• the box bottom is approximately plate-shaped and preferably designed for a thickness that corresponds essentially to the thickness of the upper circumferential support frame bar.

• the support structure is formed by folding the support structures around either the upper connecting web or around the longitudinal edges of the support base.
• the carrier is advantageously produced in one piece.
• the support members on their inner surface that is to say on the surface with which they face the bottles, are adapted to the shape of the bottle, that is to say they are curved here.
• the inner support members, which are arranged on the bottle gap, are formed with two curved inner or support surfaces 7a, 7b according to FIG. 2, where to have only a curved inner surface against the girders arranged on the corner.
• the carrier base 1 has quills 8 which are arranged on the longitudinal side at a distance from one another in the region of the central axis of the carrier base 1.
• these upwardly projecting sleeves 8 are designed with correspondingly curved inner surfaces to match the outer shape of the bottles to be accommodated, which bottles are designated by 9.
• the quills arranged on the inside again have four arched support surfaces, whereas the quills arranged on the two end faces each have two arched or arched support surfaces 9.
• the carrier is designed in this case, as can be seen from FIG. 4, that the bottles can be removed from above and also reinserted from above, so that the carrier is also suitable for returning the empty bottles.
• the supporting structure is designed as a framework and is very finely structured or structured.
• the support members and the connecting webs, as well as the carrier base are of extremely thin-walled design comparable to yoghurt pots, the thicknesses being in the range from 0.1 to 0.2 mm. This results in an extremely lightweight and flexible supporting structure.
• the supporting structure has walls 40 on the two longitudinal sides which project upwards from the bottom 1 in the lower region and which are bulged and curved outwards in accordance with the bottles to be accommodated. These walls 40 sit upwards through the support webs 7 continue, which open into an upper link 6, which is arranged in the middle and at the same time forms the carrying handle 41.
• the connecting member 6 expediently extends over the entire longitudinal side of the carrier.
• the bottom 1 is formed from two bottom halves 1 a and 1 b, which overlap one another in the exemplary embodiment shown and are connected to one another, for example, by gluing. However, any other suitable connection option, such as latching, welding, locking or tab-like insertion into one another, is also possible.
• the thickness of the walls 40 corresponds to the thickness of the supporting webs, it being possible to speak of an extremely thin-walled structure.
• the two wall elements 40 which lie opposite one another, can also be designed in a band-like manner, with support webs extending from the floor and then the band-like element 40 coming, which then continues upward into the support webs 7 already shown to the connecting member 6.

• the webs 7 can be formed like beads, as can be seen schematically from the section AA in FIG. 4b. But also the wall elements 40 are bead-like in the area of the support webs or in the area of the continuation of the support webs, which results in a certain stiffening effect. A corresponding bead is also provided in the handle 41.
• the locking mechanism can also be provided on the other side in the embodiment according to FIGS. 4 a and 4 b, that is to say in the connecting link 6, which is formed in two parts at the time.
