beate are 3,03%,659 PACKAGE F B'ITLES ANI) THE LIKE Francis W. Fielding, New Grleans, La., assigner, by mesne assignments, to Byron H. Lengsiield, r., New rleans, La.
Filed May 23, 1966, Ser. No. 30,924 3 Claims. (Ci. 265-65) one or more cans or bottles of the type which have rela-A tively large bases v`andrrnall tops. Typical of such articles are pressure spray cans which are generally cylindrical throughout the major portion of their height and which taper inwardly to reduced diameter caps, various types of bottles which taper from a large lower portion to a reduced diameter cap, of the screw-on or snap type and plastic bottles which terminate at their tops in reduced diameter spouts.
Articles of this type cannot be packaged satisfactorily in the usual rectangular cartons. The cartons must be large enough to receive the maximum size bottom portions of the articles which means that the tops of the articles will be widely spaced and will not be properly held in the cartons. Neither is it desirable to usev cartons of the type in which the reduced tops project through the tops of the cartons due to the fact that cartons of this character cannot be stacked properly. It is accordingly one of the objects of the present invention to provide a carton which will securely hold one or more articles of the type having large bottoms and reduced tops.
According to a feature of the invention, a carton is provided with side panels tapering inwardly at the upper part of the carton and joined to a relatively small top panel of a size just to overlie the tops of the articles.
The above and other objects and features of the invention will be more readily apparent from the following description when read in connection with the accompanying drawings, in which:
FIGURE l is a perspective view of a filled carton embodying the invention;
FIGURE 2 is a horizontal section on the line 2-2 of FIGURE l;
FIGURE 3 is a view of the blank from which the carton is formed.
The construction as shown in FIGURES l to 3 is adapted to retain two or more plastic containers 66 which may be of any desired shape but which have relatively enlarged bottom portions joined to upper portions e7 of reduced diameter and terminating in caps 68 of still smaller diameter. These containers are held in a carton having a bottom panel 69 which is preferably slightly wider at its center portion than at its edges to correspond to the shape of the containers. Side panels 71 are foldably joined to the opposite sides of the bottom panel 69 and are foldably connected to gable panels 72. One of the gable panels foldably carries a top panel 73 and the other gable panel carries a flap 74 which is wider than the top panel as shown and which is formed with spaced openings 74a therein -to receive the caps 68 of the containers.
The bottoms of the containers are adapted to be held in the carton by means of a pair of aps 7S at each side thereof which are folded over against the bottom panel 69 beneath the articles. Triangular web and gusset portions 76 and 77 are foldably joined to the flaps 75 and the adjacent side panels as shown so that when the flaps are folded inwardly, the gusset portions 77 will extend across the open corners of the carton to engage the containers fact that the ap 74 is of greater width than the top panel 73, its edge will engage the adjacent gable panel 72 and it will extend into the carton at an angle to the top panel. ,In this position, the caps 68 of the containers will extend into the openings 74a so that the portions of the flap at the sides of the openings will engage the sides of the caps and hold them against movement either toward or away from each other. Thus, in this construction, the articles are securely held in the carton in side by side relationship. has a dat top panel overlying the tops of the articles therein so that the cartons can be stacked without diticulty.
While several embodiments of the invention have been shown and described in detail, it will be understood that these are for the purpose of illustration only and are not to be taken as a delinition of the scope of the invention, reference being had for this purpose to the appended claims.
What is claimed is:
l. In combination, a carton and at least one article having -a relatively large bottom portion and a reduced top comprising an open ended sleeve formed of a single sheet of paperboard or the like having a bottom panel of a size to receive the bottom of the article, side panels overlying the sides of the article, and a top panel overlying the top of the article, the top panel being formed by outer and inner overlapping sections secured together in face to face relationship, the outer section extending completely across the top of the article and being connected continuously throughout its length to the side walls and the inner section including a portion at one side of the carton extending downward at an acute angle from the central portion of the top panel into the carton in spaced relation to the outer section and the top portion of the adjacent side panel with its free end engaging said side panel below said top portion and having at least one opening therein through which the reduced top of the article extends.
2. In combination, a carton and a plurality of articles having relatively large bottoms and reduced tops, said carton comprising an open ended sleeve formed of a single ysheet of paperboard or the like having a bottom panel of a size to receive the bottoms of the articles in side-byside relationship, side panels overlying the sides of the articles, and a top panel overlying the tops of the articles, the top panel being formed of overlapping outer and inner sections secured together in face to face relationship, the outer section extending completely across the tops of the articles and being connected continuously throughout its length to the tops of the side panels and the inner section including a portion at one side of the carton extending downward at an acute angle from the central portion of the top panel into the carton in spaced relation to the outer section and the top portion of the adjacent side panel with its free end engaging said side panel below said top portion `and having spaced openings therein through which the reduced tops of the articles extend.
3. In combination, a carton and at least one article larger at the bottom than at the top, said carton comprising an open ended sleeve formed of a single sheet of paperboard or the like and having a bottom panel to receive the bottom of the article, upstanding side panels foldably joined to the sides of the bottom panel, imperferate gable panels foldably joined to the upper edges of the side panels and sloping inwardly at an acute angle 'Patented Mar. 5, 1963 It will be noted that the cartonr articlea ap foldably joined to oneof the panels along a straight fold line' extending to the juncture off the bottom panel with a side panel, said ilap being fold-able between said one panel and the adjacent article in the carton, generally triangular webs foldably joined to each other and respectively foldably joined to the end ofthe liap and thev end of the panel adjacent to said one of the, panels alongfold lineslat an angle to each other and meeting eachother andthe first named fold line; at said juncture of thebottom panel with one of the sidepanels and an internal apvextending downwardly at an; acute angle fromlthe central portionof the toppanelinto the;
with at least one opening therein to receive one side of the top of the article.
