Definitions
- Fig. 1 is a plan view of a blank for an article carrier in accordance with the present invention, showing the inner surface thereof.
- the blank which is preferably formed from a paperboard material, includes end panel 12, side panel 14, end panel 16 and side panel 18. These panels are interconnected along fold lines 20, 22 and 24 respectively. Connected along fold line 26 at an opposite end of side panel 18 is a glue flap 28.
- Bottom panels 30, 32, 34 and 36 are folded along fold lines 38, 40, 42 and 44 respectively to produce the intermediate structure shown in FIG. 3.
- the end of slit 62, 76 will be positioned closer to the center of the edge of the handle in the erected carton while maintaining the preferred width for connecting portion 66, 78.
- Such a position for the end of slit 62, 76 helps to keep the tearing of material to a minimum, and helps prevent an increase in force required to open the collapsed carrier as compared to conventional carriers.
- the present invention enables the carrier to be adjusted with respect to partition depth and corresponding cost as may be appropriate with regard to the particular circumstances for which the article carrier is being produced.

Abstract
Description
Claims (8)
- A blank for an article carrier, comprising a side panel (14) having a first upper edge and a side edge; an end panel (12) having a second upper edge and a side edge, said end panel and said side panel being interconnected at said side edges along a fold line (20); a handle panel (58) disposed adjacent a portion of said side panel along said first upper edge thereof and adjacent a portion of said end panel along said second upper edge thereof; said handle panel being separated from said side panel by a first cut line (60) extending along said first upper edge, and being partially separated from said end panel by a second cut line (62) extending along a portion of said second upper edge, characterised in that said second cut line (62) terminates at a point spaced from a side edge (64) of said handle panel and defining a connecting portion (66) therebetween.
- The blank as defined in claim 1, wherein said connecting portion has a width of approximately 1.0 to 5.0 millimeters.
- The blank as defined in claim 1 or claim 2, wherein said side edge of said handle panel (58) and said second upper edge of said end panel intersect substantially adjacent but spaced from the termination of said second cut line (62).
- The blank as defined in claim 3, wherein said side edge of said handle panel and said second upper edge of said end panel intersect substantially along a radius of curvature.
- An article carrier comprising a side panel (14) having a first upper edge and a side edge; an end panel (12) having a second upper edge and a side edge, said end panel and said side panel being interconnected at said side edges along a fold line (20); a handle panel (58) being separated from said side panel by a first cut line (60) extending along said first upper edge and spaced therefrom, and being partially separated from said end panel by a second cut line (62) extending
along a portion of said second upper edge, characterized in that said second cut line (62) terminates at a point spaced from a side edge (64) of said handle panel and defining a connecting portion (66) therebetween. - An article carrier as defined in claim 5 wherein said connecting portion has a width of approximately 1.0 to 5.0 millimeters.
- An article carrier as defined in claim 5 or claim 6, wherein said side edge of said handle panel (58) and said second upper edge of said end panel intersect substantially adjacent but spaced from the termination of said second cut line (62).
