A carrier for a plurality of containers includes an upper web having a plurality of upper web apertures, each for receiving a chime and a neck of one of the containers therethrough. Each upper web aperture has a plurality of tabs formed at an inside edge thereof. Each tab is configured for bending upward when contacting the chime of one of the containers. A lower web has a plurality of lower web apertures, each for receiving a body of one of the containers therethrough. A side web connects the upper web with the lower web, and may be formed together with the upper web and the lower web as a single piece, or into two separate portions that may be adhered or otherwise fastened together.

A litter box comprises a body made of at least one flexible elastomeric material, the body having a wall defining a cavity with a top open end. The wall has four generally upstanding wall portions contouring the cavity. A first wall portion has a first minimum height of 8.0 inches or less, a second wall portion having a second minimum height of 10.0 inches or more and being opposite the first wall portion. Third and fourth wall portions are higher than the first minimum height and the second minimum height, the third and fourth wall portions being on opposite sides of one another and being located between the first wall portion and the second wall portion.

A container for housing a liquid-filled bag has at least four walls including first and second side walls, a front wall, and a back wall. The front wall has a front wall panel, and the back wall has a back wall panel interconnected with first and second side wall panels. A first inner shield flap is coupled to the front wall panel, a second inner shield flap is coupled to the back wall panel, and a first top flap is coupled to the first side wall panel. The first top flap defines a first handhold opening. A second top flap is coupled to the second side wall panel and defines a second handhold opening. The first and second handhold openings overlap to define a handhold when the second top flap is folded over the first top flap. The handhold is offset from free ends of the first and second inner shield flaps.

A construct for providing divider features in the interior of a carton includes a plurality of panels including at least one end panel and at least one side panel foldably connected to the at least one end panel, and divider features including a plurality of divider flaps foldably connected to a respective panel of the plurality of panels forming at least one divider wall of the construct for forming a plurality of container receiving spaces in the interior of the carton.

A box can include a body portion at least partially defining a cavity, the body portion defining a top body end and a bottom body end, the body portion including a plurality of panels, the top body end defining an opening to the cavity; a telescoping panel including an upper telescoping subpanel and a lower telescoping subpanel, the lower telescoping subpanel coupled to the body portion by a top hinge, the upper telescoping subpanel coupled to the lower telescoping subpanel by a telescoping hinge, the telescoping panel defining a locking tab disposed opposite from the top hinge, the lower telescoping subpanel extending into the cavity and positioned in facing engagement with a first panel of the plurality of panels, the upper telescoping subpanel extending across the cavity from the first panel to a second panel of the plurality of panels, the second panel positioned opposite from the first panel.

A container (1) for the storage of a plurality of windows for household appliances (50) piled onto one another along a piling direction (L) comprises a side wall (2) for laterally delimiting a containment volume (V) for containing the plurality of windows for household appliances (50) about the piling direction (L). In particular, the container (1) has a main opening (3) configured to enable the insertion and piling of each window for household appliances (50) in the containment volume (V) and a bottom (4) configured to define a support surface (5) for at least one perimeter portion of a window for household appliances (50). Preferably, the side wall (2) is interposed between the bottom (4) and the main opening (3). The bottom (4) has a secondary opening (6) substantially afforded centrally with respect to the support surface (5) so as to be able to be crossed by a projecting portion of a window for household appliances (50) arranged outside the container, wherein the bottom (4) has an own flap (7) movable between a first closing position and a second opening position. A further object of the present patent application is a method for piling a plurality of windows for household appliances (50).
