Definitions

  • the carton is provided with conventional can separating elements 12, 13 and 14 which are struck out of the top panel 1 together with medial separator tabs 26, 27 and 28 foldably joined to the lap panel 6.
  • can chime engaging retaining tabs 32 and 33 are formed in lap panel 6 and are folded into positions of parallel relationship to panel 6 so as to hold the bottom portions of the cans against dislodgment through the ends of the wrapper.
  • tabs 34 and 35 are formed in lap panel 8 and perform the same functions as tabs 32 and 33.
  • holding straps 48 are disposed astride the four upper corners of the carton and are held in their article retaining positions by anchoring straps 49, straps 48 and 49 being foldably joined to panels 1 and 2 respectively along diagonal fold lines 50 and 53.
  • Fold lines 50 and 53 are in general alignment with each other and are interconnected by severance lines 51, 52 and 54. Severance lines 57 and 58 separate holding strap 48 from anchoring strap 49.
  • This invention relates to article carriers and more particularly to wrapper type carriers of the open end type and is directed primarily to means for preventing dislodgement of the packaged items through the open ends of the carrier.
  • packaged items such as cans are secured within the package by means of slits formed at the corners of the wrapper and which receive a portion of the chimes of the packaged cans. While such slits perform satisfactorily under normal conditions, it is possible to rupture the slit and thereby to allow the packaged items to escape from the wrapper through the open ends thereof under unusually severe stress condition or when the wrapped is weakened due to excessive dampnessand the like.
  • a principal object of this invention is the provision of an improved article retaining means for wrapper type carriers of the open ended type and wherein such means is peculiarly adapted for use in conjunction with a package which is wrapped about an article groupas distinguished from an open ended carrier which is loaded through one or both its ends.
  • Another object of this invention is the provision of an improved article holding strap which is arranged for disposition astride the corners of a wrapper type package and which is peculiarly adapted for folding into its normal holding position simultaneously with the formation of the wrapper about an article group.
  • Still another object of the invention is the provision of an improved anchoring strap arranged to cooperate with the improved holding strap of this invention, the two straps being foldably joined to different side walls of the wrapper in such a way that they may cooperate in causing the holding strap to occupy a position astride the corner of the wrapper upon completion of the article forming operation.
  • the invention in one form as applied to a tubular type wrapper having a pair of wall panels foldably joined to each other along adjacent side edges comprises a holding strap foldably joined to one of said walls along a diagonal fold line and extending across the fold line between the wall panels and into the other wall panel, and an anchoring strap foldably joined to the other wall panel along a diagonal fold line which preferably is in general alignment with the fold line between the holding strap and the one side wall when the panels are disposed in a common plane, the holding and anchoring straps being foldably joined to each other preferably along a fold line which is disposed in generally perpendicular relationship to the fold line between the wall panels.
  • the holding and anchoring straps are then folded by machine elements or otherwise downwardly and generally toward the article group to be packaged.
  • the anchoring strap is disposed along side the wall panel to which it is foldably joined and inwardly thereof and is held in this position by the adjacent packaged article.
  • the holding strap is thus maintained in a diagonal position astride the corner of the carrier and is disposed as to prevent positive dislodgement of the adjacent packaged article.
  • FIG. 1 is a perspective view of a set-up article carrier of the open ended tubular type with the packaged articles removed and to which the holding means of this invention is applied;
  • FIG. 2 is an enlarged plan view of a portion of the blank from which the carrier of FIG. 1 is formed and which shows the improved holding means;
  • FIG. 3 is an end view of the wrapper depicted in FIG. 1 and showing one can positioned within the wrapper on the left side thereof; and
  • FIG. 4 is a plan view of a blank from which the wrapper is formed.
  • the numeral 1 is used to designate the top wall panel.
  • Side wall panel 2 is foldably adjoined to top wall panel 1 along the fold line 3 while side wall panel 4 is foldably adjoined to top wall panel 1 along fold line 5.
  • the bottom of the carrier is a composite wall comprising lap panel 6 which is foldably joined to side wall 2 along the fold line 7, and another lap panel 8 which is foldably joined to side wall 4 along fold line 9.
  • a pair of finger gripping apertures 10 and 11 are formed in top wall panel 1 for facilitating portability as is well known. Also formed in top panel 1 are separator tabs 12, 13, and 14 which are foldably joined respectively to the main panel 1 along fold lines 15, 16 and 17.
  • a pair of tightening apertures 18 and 19 are formed in lap panel 6 while a similar pair of tightening apertures 20 and 21 are formed in lap panel 8.
  • suitable machine elements enter the tightening apertures 1821 and operate in such a way as to draw the lap panel 6 and the lap panel 8 in the general direction of each other.
  • lap panels 6 and S are locked together by means of locking tabs 22 and 23 which are formed in lap panel 8 and which are driven in the openings defined by retaining tabs 24 and 25 in lap panel 6.
  • a plurality of separator tabs 26, 27 and 28 are folded upwardly along their respective fold lines 29, 30 and 31.
  • retaining tabs 32 and 33 are formed in lap panel 6 while similar retaining tabs 34 and 35 are formed in lap panel 8.
  • these can retaining tabs are folded inwardly along their respective hinge lines 36, 37, 38 and 39 into positions of substantially fiat face contacting parallel relation with the inner surfaces of the respective lap panels.
  • web panels 40, 41, 42 and 43 are formed at the inner ends of the hinge lines.3639 inclusive.
  • holding means designated generally by the numerals 44, 45, 46 and 47 are provided at each upper comer of the wrapper. Since the holding means 44-47 are all identical in construction, only one such structure identified at 44 will be described in detail.
  • the holding means 44 comprises a holding strap generally designated by the numeral 48 and an anchoring strap generally designated by the numeral 49.
  • Holding strap 48 is foldably joined along diagonal fold line 50 to the top wall panel 1. Holding strap 48 is separated from top panel 1 along a short severance line 51 and is also separated from the wall panel 2 along a severance line 52 which forms a continuation of the severance line 51.
  • Anchoring strap 49 is foldably joined along diagonal fold line 53 to the side wall panel 2. Fold lines 50 and 53 are in general alignment. Anchoring strap 49 is separated from the main wall 2 along severance line 54 disposed on the right hand side of the fold line 53 as viewed in FIG. 2 and by a short severance line 55 disposed on the left hand side of the fold line 53 as viewed in FIG. 2. Severance line 54 forms a continuation of severance line 52 as will be obvious from FIG. 2. Holding strap 48 and anchoring strap 49 are interrelated by a fold line 56 which is disposed in generally perpendicular relationship to the fold line 3 between wall panels 1 and 2.
  • a severance line 57 Disposed at the right hand end of fold line 56 is a severance line 57 which extends to the severance line 54, 52 and a severance line 58 is disposed at the left hand end of fold line 56 and constitutes a separation between the holding and the anchoring straps.
  • the slit 59 is for the purpose of rendering the anchoring and holding straps readily foldable so as to facilitate the formation of the carrier.
  • the invention as shown in the drawing and as described thus far is particularly adaptable for use in conjunction with open ended article carriers which are wrapped about an assembled article group in order to form the package.
  • the side walls 2 and 4 are folded downwardly along the fold lines 3 and 5 respectively, and simultaneously the holding strap 48 is swung inwardly so as to become disposed astride the corner of the carrier.
  • the anchoring strap 49 is swung inwardly of the carrier along the hinge line 53, the anchoring and holding straps being interrelated by the hinge line 56.
  • the anchoring strap 49 is disposed in flat face contacting relation along the inside surface of its associated side wall and the associated holding strap is disposed in its package holding position as shown for example in FIGS. 1 and 3.
  • the upper portion of the adjacent can C engages the end of holding strap 48 which is remote from its hinge line 50 and holds that portion of the holding strap in flat substantially face contacting relation to the associated anchoring strap 49 and thereby maintains the two straps in secure position between the can and the adjacent side wall of the carrier.
  • FIG. 4 One advantage of the invention to which substantial economy of material may be attributed is illustrated in FIG. 4 wherein a particular carrier blank is depicted in solid lines and wherein a portion of a nested adjacent blank is depicted in dotted lines.
  • An article carrier comprising a pair of wall panels foldably joined together along adjacent side edges, a holding strap foldably joined to one of said wall panels near one corner thereof, and an anchoring strap foldably joined to the other of said wall panels and near said holding strap, said holding and anchoring straps being foldably joined together along a fold line generally perpendicular to the fold line between said wall panels whereby portions of said straps may be folded into fiat face contacting relation when said wall panels are folded into substantially normal relation to each other so as to secure said holding strap in its holding position astride the corner defined by said wall panels at one end edge of the carrier.
