Abstract (en)

Carrier (11,50) of plastic for a container (2) each of which comprises a flat band (10,26,45,51) for embracing the container body (4) and wedging under the upper rim (5) of the container (2), the band (10,26,45,51) being associated with a flat strap-like handle bail (13,14,25,40,57) which at its lower end is connected to the lower portion (12,29) of the band in a manner such that, upon lifting of the bail (13,14,25,40,57), the band (10,26,45,51) tends to twist, pulling the lower portion (12,29) of band outwardly whilst the upper portion (9) is forced inwardly against the can body (4) to prevent the band (10,26,45,51) from slipping over the rim (5). The twisting effect also develops a hoop tension in the band (10,26,45,51) which tightens the grip of the band (10,26,45,51) about the can body (4).
