ABSTRACT:
A clip for joining together a plurality of cans having a chime on their upper edge employs a body supporting a chime-engaging hook at its lower end and a spaced pair of chime-engaging tabs at its upper end, all of which cooperate to engage one can chime. The body is flexibly hinged between portions dedicated to engage each can so that the hook and tabs engaging one can are not deformed by pivotal motion of other cans in the clip. For greatest material efficiency each hook engages the chime over an arc segment, and the tabs engage the chime over a non-overlapping arc segment at each end of the segment engaged by the hook. The tabs extend downwardly against the inside chime surface to abutment with the can end. A cover sheet may be used in association with the clip, and may have a peripheral skirt protecting the can sides.
