Definitions
- This invention relates to article carriers which incorporate integrally formed handles. More particularly, it relates to a carrier of this type which provides access to the packaged articles through the top panel of the carrier.
- Article carriers are normally provided with a handle for convenient lifting. Although it may take many forms depending on the type of carrier involved, a satisfactory handle should be designed so as to be readily grasped, comfortable to the hand and capable of lifting the carrier without tearing. In the case of sleeve-type carriers, an elongated strap extending between opposite side or end panels has been found to be quite comfortable to grip and has the advantage of distributing lifting stresses to the sides or ends of the carrier where they are more readily disseminated with less risk of tearing the carrier.
- tear-away sections When packaging certain articles, such as beverage containers, it is often desirable to provide access to the interior of an enclosed carrier by means of tear-away sections. Once the sections are torn away and the containers removed the carrier normally is no longer in condition to be used. If it is desired to return the used containers to a retail outlet or to transport the remaining containers after only a few have been removed from the package, it would be convenient to be able to again carry them in the original carrier. To do this, the carrier must not be destroyed the tear-away sections are removed and should still be capable of being lifted by the handle.
- the invention is incorporated in a carrier in which a handle strap is separably connected to the top panel by lines of weakness, the handle strap extending between either the opposite end panels or the opposite side panels and dividing the top panel into two portions.
- the lines of weakness of the handle continue into either the opposite end panels or the opposite side panels and additional lines of weakness extend from the continued lines of weakness substantially toward the upper corners of the carrier. Severing of the lines of weakness of the handle occurs when lifting the carrier. Subsequent severing of the lines of weakness in the end or side panels allows the top panel portions to be folded back to permit access to the interior of the carrier.
- fold lines in the end or side panels form tabs with the lines of weakness in those panels, which may be conveniently gripped when severing the lines of weakness in the end or side panels.
- a flexible reinforcing strip such as strands of reinforcing material, may be adhered to the handle strap.
- the invention not only permits the carrier to be lifted by a comfortable, strong strap-type handle, but also provides access to the interior of the carrier without destroying the ability of the carrier to continue to support the packaged articles when lifted by the handle.
- FIG. 1 is a pictorial view of a sleeve-type carrier in which a handle strap extends between opposite end panels;
- FIG. 2 is an enlarged partial end view of the carrier of FIG. 1;
- FIG. 3 is a plan view of a blank for forming the carrier of FIG. l;
- FIG. 4 is a partial pictorial view of the carrier, with the packaged contents omitted, showing the handle in operative condition;
- FIG. 5 is a top view of an opened carrier after the tear-away sections have been separated and the top panel portions folded back;
- FIG. 6 is a partial plan view of a modified blank for forming a carrier with a reinforced handle
- FIG. 7 is a partial plan view of a blank for forming a carrier in which the handle strap extends between opposite side panels;
- FIG. 8 is a partial pictorial view of a sleeve-type carrier, with the packaged contents omitted, formed from the blank of FIG. 7.
- a carrier 10 is comprised of side panels 12 connected to top panel 14 and to a bottom panel which is hidden in this view.
- the carrier also includes end panels 16 formed of end panel flaps connected to the top, side and bottom panels.
- the major end panel flaps 18 and 20, which are connected to the top and bottom panels, respectively, are visible in this view.
- handle strap 22 which is connected along its length to the top panel by readily separated lines of weakness 24.
- the lines of weakness may be of any desired design. Preferably, however, they are comprised of slits separated by short connecting portions of the top panel which are readily severed or torn when the handle is used to lift the carrier.
- the handle includes centrally located handle grip flaps 26 which are connected to the strap by fold lines 28 and to the top panel by readily separated lines of weakness 29.
- the lines of weakness 24 extend into the end panels for a short distance, as indicated by reference numeral 30, and continue in outwardly extending arcuate portions 32. Additional lines of weakness 34 extend from the end of arcuate portions 32 to a point in the vicinity of the nearest upper corner of the carrier. Fold lines 36 extend from the ends of the arcuate lines of weakness 32 to the top panel at the intersection of the lines of weakness 24 and 30. The areas bounded by the fold lines 36 and the lines of weakness 30 and 32 define tabs 37 used in opening the top panel, as described further below.
- a generally rectangular blank 38 from which the carrier is formed is comprised of top panel section 14 connected by opposite fold lines 40 to side panel sections 12.
- the side panel section in the interior of the blank is connected by fold line 42 to bottom panel section 44, and glue flap 46 is connected to the bottom panel section 44 by fold line 48.
- Fold lines 50 connect both of the side panel sections 12 to minor end panel flaps 52, while fold lines 54 connect the bottom panel section 44 to the lower major end panel flaps 20.
- the upper major end panel flaps 18 are connected to the top panel section 14 by fold lines 56, which are aligned with the fold lines 50 and 54 and which extend through the handle strap 22 as fold line 58.
- the relationship of the lines of weakness 24 in the top panel section and the lines of weakness 30, 32 and 34 in the end panel flaps 18 can be seen to be as described in connection with the carrier of FIG. 1.
- the bottom panel section 44 is folded about fold line 42 onto the adjacent side section 12 , after which the side panel section 12 at the end of the blank is folded about fold line 40 and glued to the glue flap 46.
- This produces a flat tube or collapsed carrier which typically is shipped to a packaging facility where it is erected, loaded with the articles being packaged and its ends closed by means well known in the industry to form the finished carrier of FIG. 1.
- a user simply presses down on the handle grip flaps 26, severing the lines of weakness 29 attaching them to the top panel, and folding the flaps down about the fold lines 28.
- the handle strap can then be fully grasped and the carrier lifted by the handle.
- the weight of the carrier causes the handle to separate from the top panel along the lines of weakness 24 and to bow upwardly, as illustrated in FIG. 4.
- this bowing action causes the portions of the handle strap in the end panels and in the adjacent portions of the top panel to be pulled inwardly away from the end panels of the carrier, resulting in the handle strap separating from the end panels for a short distance along the lines of weakness 30.
- the arcuate lines of weakness 32 act as stress relief cuts, preventing tearing of the end panels during lifting.
- a user To gain access to the packaged articles after lifting the carrier has separated the lines of weakness 24, a user simply grasps the exposed portion of the tear-away tabs 37 at opposite ends of the carrier and pulls the remaining tear-away sections from the end panels along lines of weakness 32 and 34. If the tabs are not exposed enough to be easily grasped, they can first be separated from the end panels along the lines of weakness 32 by pushing them in toward the interior of the carrier. These maneuvers are facilitated by the fold lines 36, which allow the tabs 37 to be folded out so as to be more readily gripped during the tear-away process. As mentioned above, the lines of weakness 34 terminate in the vicinity of the upper corners of the carrier.
- the interior of the carrier can be exposed simply by folding the top panel portions back along the fold lines 40.
- the carrier in this condition is illustrated in FIG. 5, which reveals the packaged bottles B.
- the carrier is still in condition to be lifted and carried by the handle, regardless of whether one or both of the top panel portions have been separated and folded back. This is possible due to the handle strap 22 being permanently attached to the end panels only, not to the top panel.
- FIG. 6 shows reinforcing strands 62 adhered to the inner surfaces of the handle 22 and the end panel flaps 18.
- the strands may be comprised of any suitable material possessing adequate flexibility and tensile strength, such as, for example, fiber glass strands. The flexibility of the strands allows them to follow the bowing of the handle when the carrier is lifted while remaining adhered to both the handle and the end panels. Reinforcement is not limited to material in the form of strands. Reinforcing material in the form of tape or other suitable elongated form which also possesses the qualities of flexibility and tensile strength could be used as well.
- the invention is not limited to use of a handle strap which extends along the length of the carrier.
- a strap extending along the width of the carrier may be employed as well.
- a blank for forming such a carrier is illustrated in FIG. 7, wherein a handle strap 64 is connected to the top panel 14 by lines of weakness 66.
- Lines of weakness 68, 70 and 72 in the side panels 12 correspond to the lines of weakness 30, 32 and 34 in the end panels of the first embodiment, differing primarily only in the different lengths of the lines of weakness 34 and 72.
- the lines of weakness form tabs 74.
- the handle 64 is connected to the side panels 12 by fold lines 76, which are coincident with the fold lines 40, and a handle cutout 78 in the top panel section 14 provides room for the hand of a user to grip the handle.
- the portions of the blank omitted from FIG. 7 are similar to the corresponding portions of the blank of FIG. 3.
- FIG. 8 shows the upper portion of a carrier produced from the blank of FIG. 7. It can be seen that the primary difference from the carrier of FIG. 1 is the different orientation of the handle, requiring the tear-away sections to be located in the side panels instead of the end panels.
- the invention provides a strong handle which extends from one end of the carrier to the other, thus distributing lifting stresses to the relatively strong side or end panels rather than to the top panel.
- the interior of the carrier can be accessed through the top of the carrier without weakening the handle structure, thereby permitting the carrier and its contents to be lifted by the handle even after the top panel has been opened.
- the invention is not intended to be limited to the specific carrier design described, but may be incorporated in other carrier designs in which the top panel is formed from connected top panel flaps. Because the invention is not necessarily limited to all the specific details described in connection with the preferred embodiments, except as they may be within the scope of the appended claims, changes to certain features of the preferred embodiments which do not alter the overall basic function and concept of the invention are contemplated.
