After folding over of the second cover part 109, therefore, the tabs 148 in areas 148a (FIG. 16) are firmly connected to the inner side 109 (see also the enlarged illustration in FIG. This in turn has the consequence that when erecting the blank 101 and thereby removing the cover members 108, 109 from the bottom part 105 in the direction of the arrows drawn in Fig.
  • the two tabs 148 are pulled out of the surface of the handle portion 127 b and thereby on the remaining fixed points 149, the handle member 127 initially pulled along in the sense that its outer edge formed by the fold line 128 is moved through the slots 146, 147 to the outside, as indicated in Fig. 19 by an arrow w .

  • the reinforcing strip 155 suitably provided on a broadside with a self-adhesive surface, so that it can be easily attached to the finished blank.
  • the weight per unit area provided for the carrier Cartons when using the reinforcing strip 155 when using the reinforcing strip 155, of course, too could be mounted on both handle sections 27a and 27b, by about 15% can be reduced.
  • the reinforcing strip 155 increases the carrying stability at otherwise equal conditions by at least about 40%, so that the Handle 27 under load even in comparatively thin and narrow, above the Through openings 153 located web portions of the handle parts 27 does not crack. Especially for carriers for glass bottles with contents of 0.51 to 1.51 this is Safety aspect of particular importance.
