Abstract:
An article carrier for accommodating at least one article, comprising a top, a base, opposed side walls hingedly interconnecting the top and the base, and an internal partition panel extending between said side walls, wherein one or both of said side walls are arranged in an acute angular relationship with respect to said base to form a tubular structure of a trapezoidal cross section, wherein the carrier is collapsible along a supplemental hinged connection formed in said base thereby to enable the carrier to move between a flat collapsed condition and a set up condition, wherein said internal partition panel is hingedly connected to one of said side walls along a first fold line and to the other side wall along a second fold line, and wherein said first fold line is disposed at a greater distance from said top than said second fold line to allow the carrier to move between said collapsed and set up conditions.
