  • Patent number: 5273156
    Abstract: A neck clip bottle carrier having a handle panel extending up from the angled side panels. The lower edges of openings in the side panels engage the undersides of bottle flanges to support the bottles. The openings continue into the handle panel, and the upper edges also engage the undersides of the bottle flanges when the handle panel is folded down. This maintains the handle panel below the tops of the bottles to allow the carriers to be stacked. One of the openings extending into the handle panel is a handle opening. The upper edge of the handle opening is of arcuate shape in order to distribute lifting and carrying stresses into the side panels.
