ABSTRACT:
A holder for flaps of corrugated cartons is designed to temporarily hold carton flaps either in the fully opened position, for loading or unloading, or in a temporarily closed position. The device acts as a clip, with two flanges between which one or two layers of corrugated board may be engaged. The clip preferably is formed of one integral piece, with one flange being substantially the size of a large central opening in the other flange. The inner flange may have a rest position which extends slightly through the opening of the outer flange, so that the clip always tends to spring back to this position and will exert a clamping force on the carton flaps.
