  • the dispenser includes a displaceable portion of the carton formed from and detachably connected to the top, side and end walls to be substantially detached from the carton to define an opening for exposing the endmost article for removal.
  • the displaceable portion is connected to the end wall along a weakened line extending between the side walls so that the weakened line defines the upper edge of a stopper wall formed from the end wall when the displaceable portion is substantially detached from the carton.
  • the upper edge extends substantially along the cylindrical axis of the endmost article so that the stopper wall inhibits the endmost article from undesirably exiting the carton.
  • the carton further comprises a bottom wall connecting between the lower edges of the side walls, and the upper edge of the stopper wall is spaced above the bottom wall at a distance less than the diameter of the endmost article.

  • the end flaps arranged along each of the upper and lower edges (as viewed in FIG. 3) of the blank 12 form a composite end wall such as shown at 70 in FIG. 1.
  • the first side wall panel 64 is folded along the fold line 82 to lie flat on the top wall panel 62 .
  • Glue is applied to the glue flap 88 , and then the bottom wall panel 68 is folded along the fold line 86 to lie flat on the second wall panel 66 .
  • the bottom wall panel 68 is glued to the glue flap 88 , and thereby a flat tubular carton is provided The flat tubular carton is then expanded into an open-ended tubular form.

  • each tear line 30 extends across the adjacent end of the endmost can “C” in the lower tier, the opposite ends of the endmost can “C” are partially exposed as shown in FIG. 2 so that a user can easily grasp that can by the opposite ends.
  • the curvature of the tear lines 30 help to increase the exposed areas of the can ends.
  • end-most can the can “C” in the trough
  • the remaining cans C in the upper tier will nest in the spaces between the cans of the lower tier. Nesting of cans in this manner is well known in the art and is not illustrated.
  • the invention serves as a useful dispensing carton that can be placed upon a surface or within a compartment such as a refrigerator or pantry.
  • FIGS. 4 to 6 A second embodiment of the invention is shown in FIGS. 4 to 6 , where like parts have been designated by the same reference numeral with the prefix “1” and only the differences are discussed in any greater detail.
  • cans “C” in this embodiment are arranged in a group consisting of two vertically disposed tiers each including five cans.
  • the cans in each tier are disposed on their sides in a side-by-side parallel fashion.
  • the blank of the carton has a pair of bottom wall panels 168 a and 168 b that are secured together to form a composite bottom wall when the blank is erected into a carton.
  • the inner or upper bottom wall panel 168 a is foldably connected to the first side wall panel 164 along a fold line 190 while the outer or lower bottom wall panel 168 b is foldably connected to the second side wall panel 166 along a fold line 186 .
  • Each bottom wall panel is provided at its opposite ends with end flaps 100 or 102 .
  • the end flaps 100 on the inner bottom wall panel 168 a are glued respectively to the end flaps 102 on the outer bottom wall panel 168 to form full bottom end flaps similar to the end flaps 74 and 74 a in the first embodiment.
  • FIG. 4 illustrates a carton 110 formed from the blank 112 of FIG. 6.
  • the tear lines 130 extend from the top wall 162 to their respective lowest points 200 on the end edges 202 of the respective side walls 164 and 166 .
  • the lowest point 200 is spaced above the composite bottom wall at a distance, preferably, no more than a half of the diameter of the cans “C” to provide a maximum exposed area of the respective can end when the trough 120 is detached from the carton 110 .
  • the weakened fold line 132 is curved, or bent, to assume an inverted “U” shape, which defines a constraining tab 204 along the upper straight portion of the weakened fold line 132 .
  • the lowest points on the weakened line 132 are located at its opposite ends 200 which are in registry with the lower ends of the tear lines 130 .
  • the constraining tab 204 projects above the lowest points 200 .
  • the weakened line 132 is located above the composite bottom wall at a distance, preferably, greater than a half of the diameter of the cans “C” and less than the diameter of the cans “C”. Stated differently, the weakened fold line 132 is positioned considerably closer to the bottom wall than to the top wall 162 . As best shown in FIG. 5, the weakened fold line 132 partially breaks near its opposite ends when the trough 120 is brought to the opened position; however, the straight portion of the line 132 remains unbroken to serve as a fold line.
  • the tabs 140 and 142 (see FIG. 6) on the end flaps 100 and 102 do not project upwardly beyond the weakened line 132 . However, they are disposed flat with the inside face of the constraining tab 204 and thereby function to reinforce the constraining tab 204 .
  • Reference numeral 206 designate a half cut formed in the constraining tab 204 and extending along the weakened fold line 132 .
  • the half cut 206 may be used to facilitate removal of the trough 120 when it is desired to completely detach the trough 120 from the carton 110 .
  • Reference numerals 208 , 210 and 212 designate fold lines formed in the top wall 162 to define an yielding panel 124 .
  • the yielding panel 214 is easily displaced downwardly when pressed downwardly. Therefore, the yielding panel 214 is useful to facilitate breaking of the severance line 122 during the process of grasping the trough 120 by the hand-hole punch-through means or elliptical panel 126 .
  • the stopper wall 180 is created in the same manner as in the first embodiment and extend entirely across the dispenser opening 150 along the cylindrical axis X-X (see FIG. 5) of the endmost can “C” of the lower tier.
  • the dispenser may be formed at each end of the carton according to the invention.
  • directional references such as “top”, “bottom”, “end”, “side”, “upper” and “lower” do not limit the respective panels to such orientation, but merely serve to distinguish these panels from one another.
  • hinged connection should not be construed as necessarily referring to a single fold line only: indeed, it is envisaged that hinged connection can be formed from one or more of one of the following, a score line, a frangible line or a fold line, without departing from the scope of invention.
