(57) A carrier for liquid packages of the Brik Pak and Pure Pak type consists of a receptacle
formed by four walls and a handle substantially parallel to the axis of the receptacle
and which is centrally arranged on a receptacle wall, there being a receptacle flange
(3, 31) arranged for supporting a package in the carrier/receptacle. The handle (2)
is divided into two substantially like halves (20, 21). The receptacle wall (13, 14)
onto which the handle (2) joins is divided substantially in the partition plane of
the handle. The walls (10; 11; 12; 13,14) of the receptacle are foldably connected
to each other at the corner edges (41-44) of the receptacle. The handle halves (20,
21) are foldably connected to the respective wall part (13,14). Means (50, 51) are
arranged at the wall parts for preventing edges of the wall parts from mutual displacement
in a direction normal to the wall parts (13, 14). Means (24, 25) are arranged for
preventing the handle halves (20, 21) from mutual displacement in their plane and
for making it more difficult for the wall parts to part from each other in their plane
transverse the partition line (47) between the wall parts (13, 14). In this way the
carrier is erectable from a substantially flat blank (1) including the cohesive walls
(10, 11, 12), wall parts (13, 14) and handle halves (20, 21).
