Abstract (en)
[origin: WO9954226A1] A paperboard blank storable in a flat condition ready for folding into a dual-configuration food and beverage carrier (10), selectively folded into an upright box with upward-extending handle panels (50, 52) and end walls (56, 68) with the handle panels extending from a box base around side walls and meeting over the box as a handle. When handle panels are folded toward and around the base side walls, the carrier is disposed to enclose foodstuffs placed in the carrier and simultaneously capable of carrying one or two cups placed through appropriately sized openings in the base. A box structure is created by handle panels and first and second side panels, the side panels and handle panels being connected by a plurality of webs attached to one of the side panels and an adjoining handle panel such that when the handle panels are urged in an upright direction the side panels are pulled up to form the box-like structure, or vice-versa. Cup stabilizers (60) may be provided that hinge down into position from the handle panels over the box-like structure for supporting cups placed in the box.
