ABSTRACT:
The specification discloses a collapsible article carrier formed from a folded sheet of material that is alternatively foldable into a substantially flat, collapsed position and an open position for receiving articles. The article carrier includes a bottom member having first and second bottom panels. First and second side walls are hingedly joined along bottom edges thereof to edges of the first and second bottom panels. First and second end panels are hingedly joined to edges of the first side wall, and third and fourth end panels are hingedly joined to edges of the second side wall. The first and third end panels are hingedly joined to form a first end wall. The second and fourth end panels are hingedly joined to form a second end wall. The end panels include a fold line having a predetermined angle with respect to the bottom edge of the end panels to permit the first and third end panels to lie coincident with one another and to permit the second and fourth end panels to lie coincident with one another when the collapsible article carrier is in the collapsed position. First and second tab members are formed from first and second cutouts contained within the first bottom panel for hingedly joining the first and second end panels to the first bottom panel. Third and fourth tab members are formed from third and fourth cutouts contained within the second bottom panel for hingedly joining the third and fourth end panels to the second bottom panel. The bottom member is foldable to fold upwardly and inwardly between the side walls to thereby permit either one of the end walls to fold inwardly between the side walls in the collapsible article carrier collapsed position.
