Abstract (en)
[origin: US4338760A] The invention relates to a carrier pack for a number of bottles or similar objects that are produced with a relatively large tolerance in their diameter. The carrier pack consists of a blank that is wrapped around the bottles or similar objects. The two ends of the blank overlap where they are joined. At least one of these two ends has incisions which extend into the side wall next to respective the end section. The incisions are preferably positioned beside the bottles or similar products, which means that tabs are formed that are as wide as the bottles. The closing process for the carrier pack involves the individual tabs of an end section being pressed onto the other end section separately and elastically according to the dimensions of the bottles or similar objects, until the bottles are firmly held in place. The apparatus needed to close the carrier pack involves fingers attached to a chair mechanism. These fingers engage with edges of the blank at the end of the same. These fingers are elastic under pressure, which means that the tabs are able to compensate for possible tolerances in the dimensions of the bottles or similar objects.
