ABSTRACT:
A molded carton is provided for accommodating a plurality of fragile articles arranged in at least three parallel rows. The carton includes a tray section having formed therein rows of article-accommodating cells separated from one another by rows of upright posts. The rows of cells and posts are confined between elongated side walls and end walls, the latter interconnecting the side walls. The side walls have upper edge portions defining a common plane. A predetermined number of the posts extend a substantial distance above the common plane. Hingedly connected to the upper edge portions of the side walls are elongated closure flaps. Each flap, when in a closed position, is adapted to assume a substantially cantilevered relation with respect to the adjacent row of cells. Each closed flap has segments of the elongated free edge thereof supportingly engaged by the upper ends of a predetermined number of posts disposed within the adjacent row of posts.
