Definitions

  • This invention relates to a carton, preferably a wraparound carton, which is particularly, but not exclusively, a carton for cans and includes detachable means at one end of the carton the detachment of which removes article restraining means and facilitates access to the carton contents.
  • Cartons for encasing and dispensing multiple articles such as soft drink cans or bottles are useful for enabling users to transport, store, and access the articles for consumption.
  • the user typically prefers the ability to easily retrieve one article from the carton at a time.
  • the user tears out a detachable portion of the carton to form an access opening from which articles may be dispensed.
  • a carton may be stored in a restrictive space such as on a refrigerator shelf, it is advisable to provide an access opening that enables a user to access an end of an article to pull the article out of the carton end rather than having to lift the article out of the top of the carton. End removal of articles is especially advantageous where the carton is to be stored on an adjustable refrigerator shelf, because the user is able to optimize storage space by conforming the height of the shelf to the height of the carton, without obscuring the access opening.
  • One aspect of the invention provides a carton for cans in two rows wherein a base wall of the carton is formed from a pair of overlapping panels of the carton secured together so that the carton walls are tensioned around articles contained in the carton wherein the carton is adapted to be utilized such that a lower most row of cans is in rolling contact with one of the carton side walls disposed to act as the base of the carton and wherein article retaining means are provided at least partially to close one end of the carton to discourage dislodgement of the articles from that end of the carton and access or dispenser means is provided at said one end of the carton, the removal of which releases the upper row of cartons from restraint by said article retaining means but maintains said article retaining means effective for said lower row of articles, and wherein removal of the access or dispenser means further relieves tension of the carton walls about said articles to facilitate their removal from that end of the carton.
  • the access or dispenser means may comprise removable portions of the side wall panel acting as a top wall of the carton and adjacent portions of each of the top and base walls acting as opposed side walls sufficient to expose the endmost articles, remove the restraining means from the uppermost row of articles and relieve tension in the carton walls relative to the carton contents.
  • the access means may further include a secondary removable portion which further opens said side wall panel (acting as a top wall) towards the opposite end of the carton thereby further facilitating removal of the upper row of articles.
  • Another aspect of the invention provides a blank for forming a carton as defined in any of the three immediately preceding paragraphs.
  • a carton wherein one side is formed from a composite wall comprising a pair of overlapping panels secured together so that the carton may be tensioned around articles contained in the carton, the carton further comprises end retention means at each end of the carton to at least partially close the respective end, wherein at least one of the end retention means comprises a top and bottom stopper to prevent dislodging of the articles from the respective end of the carton, which carton further comprises a tear line which defines an at least two part removable device characterised in that a first portion of the at least two part removable device, includes a part of both the top and bottom stopper at a first end of the carton and a second part of the at least two part removable device extends from the first portion towards a second end of the carton, the at least two-part removable device designed so that when the first portion is removed access to the articles contained at said first end of the carton can be gained whilst a remaining part of the stopper substantially retains the articles, the rearmost articles are retained by the carton until the second part of the at

  • a carton wherein only one of the side walls is formed with a tear line for removing the adjacent stopper from the carton when one side wall is torn along the tear line.
  • a carton wherein the tear line traverses the one sidewall extends into both the top and bottom of the carton.
  • a carton wherein the end edge of the top and bottom adjacent to the tear line has a free section that is free of connection to the other part of the carton and wherein the tear line extends to the free section of the adjacent end edge of the top and the bottom.

Abstract

L'invention porte sur un emballage de carton pouvant recevoir deux rangées de canettes et dont le fond est constitué de deux panneaux (12, 20) se recouvrant fixés l'un à l'autre de manière à tendre les parois autour des articles placés dans le carton lors de son utilisation. Ainsi la rangée inférieure de canettes (C) est en contact roulant avec l'une des parois latérales (14, 18) de l'emballage lui servant de fond, les articles restants (74a, 51a, 51b) refermant au moins partiellement l'une des extrémités de l'emballage et empêchant lesdits articles d'être délogés de cette extrémité de l'emballage, et des moyens d'accès (30) étant prévus à l'une des extrémités de l'emballage, dont le retrait libère la rangée supérieure de l'emballage de l'obstacle constitué par le moyen de retenu des articles tout en maintenant l'obstacle pour la rangée inférieure d'articles. Le retrait du moyen d'accès libère en outre la tension exercée par les parois de l'emballage sur les articles pour en faciliter l'extraction.
