Embodiment Construction

[0020] Figure 1-6 Shown is the uniform spacing 120 , 122 , 124 application feature of the container carrier 100 for combining multiple containers 102 into a final combined multi-pack 138 . although Figure 1-6 Various configurations are shown for the evenly spaced application features of the present invention, but these illustrations are exemplary and the present invention is not limited to the container carrier 100 or multi-pack 138 shown in the figures.

[0021] While container carriers with evenly spaced application features are preferred for containers 102 such as cans or bottles, containers with any other common combination of evenly spaced application features may be used in accordance with the present invention. Containers 102 are preferably, but not necessarily, the same size within a single container carrier 100 using evenly spaced application features.

[0022] Each container carrier 100 with uniformly spaced application features preferably comprises a single shee...

Abstract

A container carrier (100) having a uniform pitch application feature is used to apply the container carrier to a container to form a multi-piece package. A series of uniform apertures (112) are formed on the container carrier in the machine direction of the plurality of packaging carriers. The application machine may use the aperture to synchronize the container carrier material with the container such that it is independent of the container pitch. The final internal characteristics of the carrier that will receive the containers may then be changed to optimally match the containers with little or no impact on the application machine.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a container carrier with evenly spaced application features having container receiving apertures for grouping together a plurality of containers. Background technique [0002] Conventional container carriers are often used to group together a plurality of similarly sized containers such as cans, bottles, jars and boxes, and / or similar containers that need to be combined. The carriers are usually flat circular arrays, sometimes called "six-packs". A flexible plastic ring carrier is one such conventional container carrier. The carrier is applied to containers of various sizes and shapes at various points along the sidewall or under the rim of the container. Preferred machines are capable of applying container carriers to a variety of container sizes. [0003] A flexible plastic ring carrier with multiple container receiving holes, usually oval, Circular or rectangular configurations, each container receiving hole enga...
