  • Patent number: 4585137
    Abstract: This invention relates to a bottle hamper the sidewall of which has a removal opening for bottles and on the bottom of which there is a framework of vertical partitions to support the lower parts of the bottles sidewise. One problem with such hampers has been the locking of bottles in the hamper during transport and different movable bars have therefore been mounted in the removal opening. A bottle hamper can be manufactured without these separate movable parts if the partitions perpendicular to the plane of the removal opening have supporting devices projecting on both sides, which devices support the bottles in the direction of the partitions and are secured to the partitions so that they can be displaced in a transversal direction as regards the partitions into the adjacent compartments when bottles are removed from the bottle hamper.
