  • Bottle carrier
    Patent number: 4709809
    Abstract: A carrier (10) for a bottle comprises a plurality of containers (11) each having side walls (12,13,15,16) upstanding from a corresponding basal edge (19,20,21,22) of an inverted pyramidal base portion (18). When a bottle is received in a container (11), weight of the bottle causes walls (23) of the base portion (18) thereof to diverge one from another with a result that the side walls (12,13,15,16) converge towards and firmly engage the bottle.
