Abstract (en)

A crash-bottom carton is erected from a flattened tubular condition to a generally rectangular condition. At the same time, bottom-forming panels (26, 28) hinged to its wall-forming panels (10, 12, 14, 16) are automatically brought down into a co-planar configuration at the bottom of the carton, and a pair of first partition-forming panels (46, 82) pass over a pair of second partition-forming panels (30, 72). The partition-forming panels have co-operating slots or notches (56, 50, 76, 90) which enable them to receive each other in a crosswise configuration after they have passed over each other; this happens automatically as the carton is brought into the rectangular configuration.
