SECT IONAL BOTTLE CARRIER Filed July 1, 1940 INVENTOR Will am E. Turner F'naZ. B);
ATTORNEY Patented May 25, 1943 SECTIONAL BOTTLE CARRIER William E. Turner, Chattanooga, Tenn, assignmto 0. B. Andrews Company, Chattanooga, Tenn., a corporation of Tennessee Application July I, 1940, Serial No. 343,394
2 Claims. My invention relates to bottle carriers and more particularly to sectional bottle carriers. having short side walls and flexible handle, and
so designed as to permit the use of thinner stock without sacrifice to strength of the carrier.
It is an object of the invention to provide a sectional carrier made up in two parts, including a body portion and a bottom reinforcing and handle portion, which are so interlocked together as to reinforce each and produce a strong carrier.
A further object of the invention resides in providing a sectional bottle carrier made up of two parts, including a body portion and a bottom reinforcing and handle portion of material which has-been so scored as to produce a flexible handle which may be pressed 'down between rows of bottles to permit stacking of the filled carriers in a small space.
A further object of the invention resides in providing a sectional carrier having a body portion with short walls for permitting easy access thereto for the insertion of bottles independently of each other, and for exposure of a considerable portion of the body of the bottle and its contents for display purposes.
A further object of the invention resides in providing a sectional carrier composed of a body portion and a bottom reinforcing and handle portion so interlocked together as to produce a strong carrier with a light weight and thin paper board material.
A further object of the invention resides in providing a sectional bottle carrier made of two parts which may be quickly and easily assembled or broken down and which is foldable into collapsible position for occupying a small space in shipment or storage. w
Other objects and advantages of my invention will appear from the following specification and accompanying drawing, and the novel features thereof will be particularly pointed out in the annexed claims.
In the drawing.
Figure 1 is a plan view of a blank forming the body portion of my improved bottle carrier.
Figure 2' is a plan view of the blank of the handle strap and bottom reinforcing element.
Figure 3 is 9. fragments! sectional elevation of a portion of my improved carrier.
Figure 4 is a perspective of my improved bottle carrier.
Referring to the drawing in detail, I, I, designates the side walls or portions thereof of the body of the carrier, and 3, 3. designates the end 55 wallsof the carrier. The side walls i, I, are joined through panels 2, 2, by crease lines l2, l2, II, II, to theend walls 2, 3. The lower portions of the ' end walls 3, 3, are divided into, tabs 4, 5, by intersecting slits l6, l1. Joined to the lower edges of the sides I, i, through crease line ll, II, are bottom flaps l, I. Joined to the free edge of the upper end 3 is a flap 6, through crease line Ii. This flap is overlapped by a panel 2,. and is secured thereto by staples 22, 22, to
form a body.
' The flap forming the bottom reinforcing means and the handle portion is composed of a bottom engaging portion ll, overlapping flap li,-secured through crease line I! to the upstanding portion of the handle and overlapped and secured by staples to the bottom forming portion ll. Up-
standing from the bottom portion II are extensions I, 9, which stand parallel with the bottles in the carrier and joining the upstanding extension I, O, are hand engaging portions 8, formed by a series of spaced parallel transverse score lines to form a flexible handle.
In setting up the carrier. the body portion of Figure 1 is coiled so that the free panel 2 overlaps the flap 6 and is secured together by the staples 22, after-which the flaps I, I, are folded inwardly and upwardly before which the handle then is coiled, so that bottom portion ll overlaps'flap II and is secured thereto by staples 2|.
The handle portion I is passed up through the body of the carrier, and the flaps I, I, are then turned in, after which the tabs 4, I, are opened and permit the passage of the upstanding portions 2, 2, of the carrier and are then overlapped on the inside thereof. The strap is then moved on upwardly until the bottom eng ing P rtion ll engages the outer faces of the flaps I, I, along their lines of juncture.
40 In its operation the carrier is simply loaded by inserting the bottles into the body. There are no iiaps or tabs to be extended over the bottle necks and no holes in which the bottle necks must be inserted. The handle portion 2 extends Just over the tops of the bottles. and between the rows thereof, so that'as the pressure is applied, or force is applied, upwardly upon the handle portion 8, the extended portions 9 convert toward each other, and the handle portion takes 5 a semi-circular configuration. That is, the upstanding extensions of the handle 0, 9, pass between the rows of the bottles as force is applied upwardly to lift the carrier. This gives more space and permits the handle portion 8 to move away from the tops of the bottles.
These carriers may be stacked one upon the other when they are packed in a small space. In this way the handle 8 is pressed down between the two rows of bottles in the carrier and forms no obstruction to the carrier which is sitting on top of the other tops of the bottles of the carrier below. Furthermore, this forms a strong and steady structure with the handle strap being interlocked with the body, so that the extensions 9, 9, pass upon the inside of the upper portions of the end walls 3, and on the outside of the tabs 4, 5, and under the flaps I, I, which are in abutting relation to form the bottom. This enables the carrier to be made of thinner stock materials and produce the same strength.
Having thus described my invention, I claim:
1. A bottle carrier of the character described comprising a blank folded to define a body including sides and ends, transverse slots formed in the intermediate portion of said ends, slits extending medially through the lower portion of said ends from the slots to the lower edges thereof, the said slits cooperating with said slots toform opposed tabs in the lower portion of each end wall, flaps joined to the lower edges of said sides and foldable inwardly to form a bottom, and an endless band passing under said flaps longitudinally thereof, and in overlapping relation to the joint between the flaps and over said tabs and up through said slots to a point above said body to provide a handle.
2. A bottle carrier of the character described comprising a blank folded to define a body including sides and ends, transverse slots formed in the intermediate portions of said ends from the slots to the lower edges thereof, the said slits cooperating with said slots to'form opposed tabs in the lower portion of each end wall, flaps carried by said body to form a bottom, and a band passing under said flaps longitudinally thereof, and in overlapping relation to the joint between the flaps, said band having tapering portions passing over said tabs and through said slots to a position above said body to provide a handle.
