The bottom panel also comprises a beveled corner.

A blank for forming a tray, wherein the blank includes a first panel extending along a lateral axis configured to form an outer side of an erected tray and a second panel extending along the lateral axis coupled to the first panel by a fold line, the second panel being configured to form an inner side of the erected tray. Each of the first and second panels includes a base section, a first lateral section foldably coupled to the base section, a first end section foldably coupled to the first lateral section, a second lateral section foldably coupled to the base section, and a second end section foldably coupled to the second lateral section.

The invention concerns a tin packaging arrangement comprising a sheet of foldable material folded around a plurality of tins, which are arranged together in an orderly manner for the relative packaging, to form a containment volume for the tins themselves, said volume being substantially defined by a base, a side surface, and a top cover obtained from the sheet in a continuous way. A peculiarity of the present invention is that openings are made in the top cover of the sheet of the packaging arrangement, within which top portions of the tins engage.

A carrier for holding a plurality of containers. The carrier has a bottom panel, at least one front panel, at least one back panel, at least two side panels, and at least one central panel dividing the interior of the carrier into a front portion and a back portion. At least one front divider flap is foldably connected to the at least one central panel and at least one back divider flap is foldably connected to the at least one central panel. At least one retention flap is foldably connected to at least one of the at least one front panel, the at least one back panel, the at least two side panels, and the at least one central panel. The at least one retention flap engages a container and provides stability to the respective container in one of the front or back container-receiving spaces.

Aspects of the disclosure relate to a carton for packaging one or more articles and a blank (210) for forming the carton. The carton may have at least one display window (D) for presentation of an article therein. The carton comprises a plurality of panels forming walls of a tubular structure including a top wall (224A, 222A), a first side wall, abase wall, and a second side wall. The carton comprises a bottom opening (A2) defined, at least, in the bottom wall (224B, 222B). The bottom opening is vertically aligned with the at least one article when the at least one article is received in the carton such that the at least one article is accessible through the bottom opening to be raised and lowered with respect to the bottom wall.

Aspects of the disclosure relate to an article carrier (90) for packaging a plurality of articles and to a blank (10) for forming the article carrier. The article carrier comprises a plurality of primary panels (12,14,16,18) for forming a tubular structure and defining an interior thereof. The plurality of primary panels includes a first panel (12) and a second panel (14) opposing the first panel. The article carrier further comprises a partition structure for dividing the interior into two or more article-receiving cells. The carrier is formed form a blank comprising a partition-forming section (PS) which comprises a primary partition panel (22,24) and a secondary partition panel (40,44,36,46) formed from the primary partition panel and hingedly connected at one of the opposing ends thereof to the primary partition panel. The upper edge (E1) of the secondary partition panel is defined at least in part by a cutaway (R1) extending from a free end edge (E3) of the blank.

A basket-type carrier formed from a single blank (1) of foldable sheet material. The carrier (4) comprises a pair of handle panels (10, 60), a pair of bottom panels (20, 70), a pair of bottom reinforcement panels (15, 65), a front panel (30), a back panel (80), side panels (31, 32, 33, 34, 81, 82, 83, 84), side reinforcement panels (21, 22, 71, 72), side flaps (35, 36, 85, 86), interior partition panels (37, 38, 87, 88), and interior partition attachment flaps (39, 89). The carrier is collapsed and expanded by means of an umbrella-type mechanism wherein side flaps (35, 36, 85, 86) connected to side panels (32, 34, 82, 84) and to interior partition panels (37, 87) slide up and down between the handle panels (10, 60). This positions front, back, side, and bottom panels in either the collapsed position with these panels folded against the handle panels, flattening the carrier for storage, or in the expanded position with these panels pulled away from the handle panels, expanding the carrier to receive articles.

A convertible carrier includes first and second carrier units (101A, 101B). The first carrier unit includes a first side panel (114A) and a first medial panel (110A) disposed opposed to the first side panel. The second carrier unit includes a second side panel (114B) and a second medial panel (110B) disposed opposed to the second side panel. The first and second medial panels are in a face-contacting arrangement to form a medial wall disposed between the first and second side panels. The first and second medial panels are retained in the face-contacting arrangement by at least one hinged connection (149, 161) between the first and second medial panels and by at least one removable joint. The removable joint is formed in part from part (162A) of the first medial panel and in part (162B) from part of the second medial panel.

A carrier for holding at least one container includes a plurality of panels extending at least partially around an interior of the carrier, the plurality of panels includes a front panel, a back panel, at least one central panel, at least one side panel, and at least one bottom panel. At least one divider flap is foldably connected to one of the front panel and the back panel, the at least one divider flap folded away from the one of the front panel and the back panel to form at least one opening in the one of the front panel and the back panel, the at least one divider flap extends through the interior of the carrier to the at least one central panel.
