Abstract: A container carrier and manufacturing method therefore are provided. The container carrier may include an integrally molded body with a top surface, a bottom surface, and one or more oval structures. Each oval structure has a circumferential rib with a plurality of flanges coupled to the circumferential rib, and each flange includes an inwardly projecting portion. An inner perimeter of each flange is formed to have an arcuate shape, and the inner perimeters of the flanges are collectively configured to define a void.

Abstract: A stacking clip is provided for vertically attaching two beverage cans together. The stacking clip comprises tabs and ledges used to attach to the lip of a circular rim of a lower beverage can and clipping protrusions used to attach to an undercut region in a concavity of another upper beverage can. Wings are configured to flex inward under an influence of a digit of a user to bias the ledges outward away from the central region of the clip body, detaching the ledges from the rim of the attached beverage can.

Abstract: A beaded lip protection and tamper-resistant device for canisters with caps is disclosed, as well as multiples of the same device joined together to form multiple-canister carriers that may be provided with one or more handles.
Abstract: Improvements in integral carriers for carrying multiple containers by their necks are disclosed, the improvements comprising annular neck-engaging structures having circumferential ribs oriented on an inward bias forming an angle relative to horizontal from about 45° to about 65° that permits nesting of the carriers, and a centrally disposed longitudinal handle with an attachment configuration that promotes a balanced distribution of weight for ease in carrying and handling.
Abstract: A protection device for beaded lips of cans or canisters comprising a planar ring with downwardly projecting flanges with arcuate gaps between flanges, as well as multiples of the same device joined together to form multiple-canister carriers that may be provided with handles such as a pair of finger loops or a single half-loop.
