CAN CLIP CARRIER WITH TOP AND BOTTOM PANELS AND SUPPORT TABS TO ENGAGE CANS ON BOTTOM PANEL WITH ONE OF THE TABS HAVING FLAP OVERLYING CAN AND TYPICALLY BEING GLUED TO TOP PANEL

摘要

A carrier for articles such as beverage cans of the type that grip the top portions of the cans so as to suspend them from the carrier. The upper ends of the cans extend through apertures in the bottom panel of the carrier, and the chimes or lips of the cans are engaged by support tabs surrounding the aperture. Glue flaps foldably connected to one of the support tabs at each aperture overlie the upper ends of the cans and are glued to the top panel. An opening in the support tab includes an edge which functions as the support edge. In addition, the bottom panel finger holes have a straight transverse inner edge connected to a cover tab along a score line. Spaced arcuate score lines in the bottom panel cause the intervening segments of the bottom panel to buttress the inner edge.
