Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a container body, such as a can or a bottle, which is provided with a carrier member or handle to facilitate carrying of the container, which may, for example, contain food or drinks.
  • WO 2004/035413 discloses a separate carrier member adapted to releasably engage with the cap or crown cork of one or more bottles.
  • the bottles have to be connected to the carrier member by the manufacturer or the consumer in a separate operation.
  • the object of the present invention is to provide a container having a carrier integrally formed therewith.
  • the present invention provides a container body having an upper part defining a container opening and a carrier member, which is formed integrally with the upper part of the container body at its outer surface, the carrier member being at least partly defined by a weakening line or cut line such that the carrier member may be stretched from a starting position into a position of use.
  • the container body may be manufactured with the integral carrier member arranged in a compact or retracted starting position, in which it does not take up much space, and when the carrier member is to be used it may be stretched from the compact starting position into an extended position of use.
  • the stretched carrier member may, for example, be used by the consumer as a handgrip or for attaching the container body to the clothing, such as a belt, of the consumer.
  • the carrier member may, for example, be in the form of a string, which in the starting position of the carrier member is attached around the upper part of the container body or to an edge of the upper part, such as the neck of a bottle or edge of a can, and which may have a loop or handle at its free end.
  • the string may be connected to the container body via a weakening line or score line so as to form a kind of flange, and/or be separated there from by a cut.
  • the carrier member may in its starting position form a flange or flap extending outwardly from the outer surface of the container body, and this flange or flap may then be provided with such weakening lines and/or cut lines that a useful carrier member is formed when it is extended or stretched so that the flange or flap breaks along the weakening lines or score lines.
  • the container body may be made from any suitable material, such as metal.
  • the container body is made from plastic material, for example by injection moulding or blow moulding.
  • the container may be of the disposable type to be used only once for food or drinks.
  • the container body may be a bottle, which is closed by a closure, such as a cap or screw cap.
  • the container body is made of metal and comprises a can having an upper part with a traditional opening arrangement with a pulling string.
  • the carrier member preferably has a gripping member or fastening member at its free end.
  • the carrier member may comprise a loop-shaped part.
  • the carrier member may be defined by a single loop. More preferred, however, the carrier member is a chain-like member comprising two or more interconnected loop-shaped links, so that the carrier member is more elongated in its position of use.
  • the loop-shaped part When in its starting position the carrier member forms an annular flange the loop-shaped part may be defined by the circumference of the flange and by a weakening line or a cut line defining an arc of a circle substantially concentric with said circumference.
  • the carrier member is defined by the circumference of the annular flange and by weakening lines or cut lines defining two or more radially spaced, substantially mutually concentric arcs of circles.
  • weakening lines or cut lines defining two or more radially spaced, substantially mutually concentric arcs of circles.
  • the carrier member may form a flap or an ear, and also in this case the weakening lines or cuts may be such that a chain-like carrier member is formed when stretched into its position of use.
  • the flap or ear may be divided into a U-shaped loop part comprising a pair of branches and a transverse bottom part, and a connecting part, which is located between the branches of the U-shaped loop part so as to connect the transverse bottom part with the container body.
  • the container body according to the invention may by any conventional method, such as deep drawing, injection moulding or blow moulding.
  • the weakening or score lines or the cut lines are advantageously formed by the moulding process, for example by complementary shaped ridges on the inner mould surface.
  • the weakening lines or cut lines may be formed by a separate operation, such as a cutting or stamping operation.
  • the carrier member may be formed integrally with the container body by fixedly attaching it to the body after the body has been provided.
  • the carrier member may be fixed attached to the body by means of adhesive and/or by means of threads.
  • the carrier member may be made of plastic, metal, cardboard or a composite material.
  • the present invention relates to a container body having an upper part defining a container opening and a carrier member, which is formed integrally with the upper part of the container body at its outer surface and can be stretched from a starting position into a position of use.
  • the carrier member is preferably at least partly defined by a weakening line or cut line such that it can be stretched from the starting position into the position of use.
  • the carrier member according to the second aspect may comprise any of the elements of the carrier member according to any of claims 2-17.
  • the present invention relates to a carrier member to be integrally formed with an upper part of a container body, the carrier member comprising any of the elements of the carrier member according to any of claims 1-17.
  • Fig. 1 shows a basic form for a container according to the invention having a carrier member in its starting position
  • Fig. 2 shows a basic form for a container according to the invention having a carrier member in its position of use

  • Figs. 9-10 show a can according to the invention with the carrier member in its starting position and position of use, respectively, and
  • a basic form 1 of the container is shown having a carrier member 2 integrally formed in its upper part 3 defining a container opening 4.
  • the basic form 1 is to be blow moulded e.g. into a container as shown in figs. 7-8.
  • the carrier member 2 In the starting position, the carrier member 2 is defined by the circumference of a flange and by weakening or cut lines 5 defining two radially spaced concentric arcs of circles 6. The lines 5 are to be broken when the carrier member is going from its starting position in fig. 1 to the position of use in fig. 2. In the position of use, the carrier member 2 allows the container to be carried in a belt.
  • Fig. 4 shows a carrier member 2 formed with a flap or an ear
  • the weakening lines or cuts 5 are such that a chain-like carrier member is formed when stretched into its position of use.
  • the flap or ear is, by means of the lines 5, divided into a U-shaped loop part 6 comprising a pair of branches 7 and a transverse bottom part 8, and a connecting part 9, which is located between the branches of the U-shaped loop part so as to connect the transverse bottom part 8 with the container body 1.
  • Figs. 5-6 shows the container according to the invention from above, wherein the basic form 1 shown figs. 1-2 now has been blow-moulded into a container/bottle 1.
  • the carrier member 2 is integrally formed with the upper part 3 of the bottle defining the opening 4.
