ABSTRACT:
An integral handle is provided for a carton having opposed pairs of side walls, a bottom wall and a top wall comprising at least first and second substantially identical overlapping flaps hingedly connected to the upper edges of one of the opposed pairs of side walls. The handle comprises first and second handle elements. The first handle element is die cut from the upper portion of the first flap and is of a length less than the width of the first flap. The first handle element has a finger receiving aperture and is pivotal about score line hinges formed in the first flap. The second handle element is of greater length than the first handle element and comprises the entire upper portion of the second flap as defined by a score line hinge extending the full width of the second flap in parallel spaced relationship to the upper edge thereof and about which the second handle element is pivotal. The second flap has at least one finger receiving aperture alignable with the aperture of the first handle element. The first and second flaps are folded inwardly to form the top wall of the carton with portions of the second flap overlapping and secured to portions of the first flap and the first and second handle elements secured together to form the integral handle.
