ABSTRACT:
A bottle carrier including composite openings that include a round oversized opening to permit vertical entry of a bottle neck having a supporting flange therethrough, and an adjoining keyed opening wherein the bottle can laterally be slid into the keyed opening to be held therein. The supporting flange, being larger than the keyed opening, supports the bottle thereon. Each keyed opening is provided with retaining members which are arranged on either side of the keyed opening and which resiliently grip a backside of a diameter of the bottle neck or flange after the bottle neck is laterally slid into the keyed opening. Laterally arranged ribs are provided at each opening which provide the frame with sufficient thickness to resiliently compress between the flange of the bottle and a transition shoulder of the bottle to tightly grip the bottle into the keyed opening. When a plurality of bottles are arranged and aligned, the last bottle can be locked in place by a tang member which is attached to a perimeter of the last round opening.
