Definitions
- REL/5 CARTON WITH LOCKED HANDLE AND LID CONSTRUCTION One of the principal objects of this invention is to provide a carton having a handle member formed by upstanding portions of the top panels of the carton, together with structure for locking such upstanding portions in place.
- Another object is to provide improved carton having six sides and to form a handle for the carton by structure which is a part of the top panels and which consists of handle elements arranged to be in confronting relationship, certain of the panels having tab extensions therefrom arranged to lock with the handle elements to maintain the top thereof in assembled relationship.
- FIG. 1 is an isometric view of a carton constructed'according to the invention.
- FIG. 2 is a plan view of a unitary cut and scored blank for forming the carton as seen in FIG. 1;
- FIG. 3 is a front elevational view of the carton seen in FIG.
- FIG. 4 is another perspective view thereof
- FIG. 5 is an'end view thereof
- FIG. 6 is a top plan view thereof
- FIG. 7 is a bottom plan view thereof
- FIG. 8 is a sectional view looking in the direction of the arrows 8-8 of FIG. 1, showing details of a locking arrangement for the handle of the carton seen in the several views;
- FIG. S1 is a. longitudinal sectional view looking in the direction of the arrows 9-9 of FIG. 6;
