ABSTRACT:
An improved single piece plastic carrier for a plurality of filled and capped bottles in which the neck of each bottle to be carried by the carrier is received in an aperture in the top panel of the carrier and is supported by a pair of spaced apart tabs which extend radially inwardly from the aperture. Each such tab has a substantially greater arcuate extent than the tabs utilized in prior art carriers, and each such tab, therefore, is substantially less yieldable than such prior art tabs. The substantially reduced tab yieldability is advantageous in preventing accidental disengagement of the bottle in the aperture from the carrier. Additionally, the carrier is provided with at least a pair of spaced apart centering lugs near each bottle carrying aperture of the carrier, in the juncture between the top panel of the carrier and the side wall thereof. Such centering lugs help to center the bottles as the carrier is being applied thereto and, after the application of the carrier, such centering lugs further reinforce the aperture to further help to prevent accidental disengagement of a bottle from such aperture. The carrier is suited for the carrying of bottles that are capped with aluminum roll-on closures, especially 28 mm diameter closures of such type.
