ABSTRACT:
A carrier for carrying at least two beverage bottles which may be cumbersome to hand carrier, for example a conventional 2 liter pop bottles, and that have an enlarged diametric flange on the bottleneck adjacent to the bottle cap, an elongated bar having a bottle gripper at each end thereof for releasably gripping the bottleneck just below the flange. Each gripper has an arcuate cutout that is defined by an arcuate edge that extends through an angle of more than 180 degrees and of a radius of curvature slightly larger than the outer radius of curvature of the bottleneck just below the flange. Further each gripper has a bottle insertion slot that at one end opens to the respective cutout and at the opposite end opens outwardly of the carrier for permitting the bottle being manually moved through the slot and into the cutout and manually removed from the carrier, the outer radii of curvature of flange being substantially greater than that of the cutout and the bottleneck just below the flange. The insertion slot is defined by edges that converge toward the cutout to form a throat, the carrier being of a resiliency to permit the bottleneck being moved through the throat, but of a rigidity to retain two bottles in about the same relationship as in a container. The bar may serve as a handle or in an embodiment for carrying four bottles, two carriers that each is of the above construction may have the bars interconnected by a handle.
