ABSTRACT:
A carton carrying handle particularly adapted for use with a wraparound type carton in which cans, e.g., soft drink or beer cans, are sold. The handle includes a handle flap defined in the carton's top panel by a free edge cut line disposed substantially transversed to the panel's longitudinal axis, and by a generally curved hinge line located opposite to and spaced from the free edge cut line with that curved hinged line being bowed toward the free edge cut line. An extender cut line is connected to each end of the curved hinge line so as to constitute co-linear extensions of the hinge line, each of those extender cut lines being of a length that traverses an adjacent fold line which connects the top wall panel and an adjacent side wall panel so that each extender cut line terminates within a side wall panel. Each end of the free edge cut line is connected with an adjacent extender cut line so as to fully define the handle flap. Accordingly, the handle flap is foldable on the curved hinge line beneath the top wall panel to form a handle hole that permits a user's fingers to be received therethrough when the carton is being carried by the user.
