Definitions

  • the carrier as disclosed herein comprises a tubular enclosure having top, bottom and spaced side walls.
  • An upstanding keel is formed medially on the bottom wall and is provided with a notch at each end which is disposed to receive the lower edge of the overlapping inner edges of end panels foldably joined to the end edges of the side walls so as to form a substantially complete closure for the ends of the carrier.
  • This invention relates to bottle carriers and more particularly to end closure means for wrap-around type bottle carriers.
  • Open-ended bottle carriers for packaging groups of primary packages such as chimed cans and capped bottles constitute an economical and satisfactory packaging arrangement for many products. Where light protection is a consideration insofar as the packaged items are concerned and where the packages are to be shipped over substantial distances, it is desirable to provide closure means for the ends of such packages.
  • a principal object of this invention is to provide an improved closure structure for the ends of wrap-around type article carriers.
  • Another object of this invention is the provision of an improved closure means for wrap-around type packages
  • the invention in one form comprises a pair of end panels foldably joined to the end edges of the side walls at each end of a wrapper together with interlocking means for securing the adjacent edges of the endpanels together and locking means for engaging at least one of the end panels so as to hold the panels securely in the closed position.
  • FIG. 1 is a perspective view of a wrap-around type of carrier to which-this invention is applicable and which shows closure means constructed according to this invention
  • FIG. 2 is an end view of the arrangement depitced in FIG. 1
  • FIG. 3 is a side view of the arrangement depicted in FIG. 1
  • FIG. 4 is a plan view of a blank from which the wrapper shown in FIGS. 1-3, inclusive, is formed.
  • the numeral 1 generally designates the top panel of the wrapper.
  • a plurality of sunburst openings 2-7 inclusive are formed in the top panel 1 and are for receiving the necks of bottles packaged in the wrapper.
  • These openings 2-7 are provided with radial slits such for example as are designated by the numeral 8.
  • These radial slits provide a plurality of radially disposed bottle cap gripping elements designated in FIGS. 1 and 4 by the numeral 9 and which are arranged to grip the caps of the packaged bottles from underneath. In this way the main panel 1 is securely anchored to the packaged articles.
  • a pair of finger gripping apertures designated by the numeral 10.
  • top sloping panels 11 and 12 are foldably joined along the weakened fold lines 13 and 14 to the side edges of the top panel 1.
  • a pair of side wall panels 15 and 1-6 are foldably joined to the top sloping panels 11 and 12, respectively, along the weakened fold lines 17 and 18.
  • bottom sloping panels 19 and 20 are foldably joined to the bottom edges of side wall panels 15 and 16 along the fold lines 21 and 22, respectively.
  • Formed in bottom sloping panel 19 are the bottle receiving openings 23, 24 and 25.
  • the bottom portion of the bottles protrude through the openings 23, 24 and 25 which serve to hold the bottles in place within the carrier.
  • the openings 26, 27 and 28 are formed in the bottom sloping panel 20 and correspond to the openings 23, 24 and 25.
  • a pair of bottom panels 29 and 3-0 are foldably joined respectively to the bottom sloping panels 19 and 20 along the fold lines 31 and 32.
  • a pair of tightening apertures 33 and 34 are formed within the bottom panel 29 and a pair of similar tightening apertures 35 and 36 are formed within the bottom panel 30.
  • suitable machine elements enter the tightening apertures 33 and 34 and move underneath the group of articles toward the bottom panel 30. Similar machine elements enter the tightening apertures 35 and 36 and draw the panel 30 toward the bottom panel 29.
  • the locking tabs 37-40 formed in the bottom panel 29 are driven through the locking openings defined by the retaining tabs 41-44 formed in the bottom panel 30.
  • the panels 29 and 30 are then arranged in overlapping relationship with the panel 30 disposed on the inside.
  • tabs 45 and 46 are struck from bottom panel 29 and foldably joined thereto along their respective fold lines 47 and 48.
  • tabs 49 and 50 are struck from bottom panel 30 and are foldably joined thereto along fold lines 51 and 52 respectively.
  • Tabs 45 and 46 as well' as the tabs 49 and 50 are folded into a position generally normal to the bottom panels 29 and 30 as is shown for example in FIGS. 2 and 3. v
  • a pair of end closurepanels 53 and 54 are f'oldably joined along fold lines 55 and 56 respectively to the ends of side wall panel 16.
  • a' pair of end closure panels 57 and 58 are foldably joined along fold lines 59 and 60 respectively to the end edges of side wall panel 15.
  • a hooked interlocking tab 61 is formed on the inner edge of end panel 53 while a similar interlocking tab 62 is formed on the inner edge of end panel 54.
  • a pair of slits 63 and 64 are formed respectively in the end panels 57 and 58.
  • the tab 61 simply slips through the slit 63 from outside so as to secure the end panels 53 and 57 to each other.
  • a pair of locking notches are formed in a medial keel panel designated by the numeral 65 and foldably joined along fold line 66 to one edge of the bottom panel 30.
  • the notches are designated at 67 and 68.
  • the keel panel 65 normally is disposed in perpendicular relationship to the bottom panels 29 and 30 as is best shown in FIGS. 1 and 2.
  • the outer end panel 53 is simply forced inwardly toward the end bottles until the lower portion thereof rides into the locking notch 67.
  • this arrangement serves to hold both panels 53 and 57 securely closed.
  • end closure panels 54 and 58 are held in the closed position by locking notch 68 at the other end of medial keel panel 65.
  • the end panel 53 is configured to conform with the adjacent portions of the wrapper as is the end panel 57.
  • end panel 53 is bevelled as indicated at 69 so as to conform generally with the disposition of top sloping panel 13.
  • end panel 53 is bevelled as indicated at 70 so as to cause the end panel 53 to conform generally with the disposition of bottom sloping panel 20.
  • the end panel 57 is bevelled at 71 and 72.
  • End panels 54 and 58 are constructed in a manner to cause those panels to conform to the opposite end of the carrier.
  • a carrier for packaging two rows of bottles whose axes are disposed in substantially parallel relation to one another comprising a top panel, a pair of top sloping panels foldably joined to opposite sides of said top panel, a pair of side wall panels foldably joined respectively along the edges of said top sloping panels remote from said top panel, a pair of bottom panels foldably joined respectively along the edges of said side wall panels, fastening means for securing said bottom panels together, a medial keel panel foldably joined to one of said bottom panels and disposed between the two rows of bottles, an end panel foldably joined to each end edge of each side wall panel, interlocking means for securing the end panels at each end of the carrier together to form a substantially complete closure for the ends of the carrier, and a locking notch formed in said keel panel near the ends thereof for receiving and holding the adjacent end panels closed.
  • a carrier according to claim 1 wherein the top panel is provided with openings arranged rectilinearly to receive the necks of the packaged bottles and wherein the peripheral edges of the openings are constructed with radial cut lines to form sunbursts for engaging the caps of the packaged bottles from underneath thereby to anchor the top panel to the group of packaged bottles.
  • a wrap-around type of bottle carrier for packaging a plurality of bottles having neck portions and closure caps, said carrier comprising a sheet of material adapted to be wrapped about a group of bottles and arranged to have its edges adjoined to form an open ended tubular container having a top section and a bottom section interconnected by a pair of side wall panels, a plurality of apertures formed in the top section for receiving the necks of the packaged bottles, and a pair of end panels at each end of the carrier, each end panel being foldably joined to an edge of each side wall panel, interlocking means formed in each end panel of each pair of end panels for securing the panels of each pair of end panels in closed positions, a medial keel panel forming an extension of one end of the sheet of material at the bottom of the carrier, and a fastening notch formed in said keel panel for receiving at least one of the adjacent end panels to aid in holding said end panels closed.
