ABSTRACT:
Plastic carriers are automatically applied to sets of containers by placing the carriers on the containers with recesses in the carrier aligned with the tops of the containers. Each recess is provided with a plurality of container engaging protrusions adapted to be seated below flanges on the containers. Sets of upstanding discs are situated to exert progressively increasing forces on the carrier top surface to seat the protrusions. A final set of concave discs are deformed in accordance with the curvature of the containers in order to insure sufficient contact between the disc rims and the narrow shoulder along the outer periphery of the carrier top surface, such that the container engaging projections adjacent to the shoulder are properly seated.
