Docket RWH-1 "Bottle Carrier" ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE A one-piece, integrally molded plastic carrier adapted for supporting a plurality of bottles (such as beverage bottles) in a space envelope which is essentially the same as that space previously utilized by cardboard cartons. In an embodiment for carry- ing six bottles, a pair of non-planar handle supports extend upwardly from the base, with each of the supports resting in the central space between groupings of four bot- ties that are arranged to form a "square". The handle supports may be generally cylindrical or T-shaped, or a combination thereof; but in any case they are non-planar. The moment of inertia of the handle supports is high, so that the stiffness of the carrier is correspondingly high. A substantial slot is provided in the base between the two handle supports, and the slot is sized so that two bottle carriers may be nested to- gether--with the handle of one carrier passing through the slot and into the bottom of another carrier. The structural elements of the carrier are appropriately sized and tapered (where necessary) in order to permit straight-pull injection molding.
