摘要:
A basket-style carrier (10) containing openings (24, 26) in the side and end panels (16, 14) through which the lower portions of packaged articles can be seen. Flaps (30, 32) connected to one or more opening edges are folded into the interior of the carrier so as to block the pricing bar code on adjacent articles without obstructing the view through the openings. The openings extend down to the bottom panel (18) but do not interfere with connections to riser panels (58, 60) connecting a handle panel (44, 45) to the end panels. The openings also allow the carriers to fit into molded packing trays (T) of the type which include inwardly extending reinforcing elements (R). The carrier is designed to allow the reinforcing elements to extend into the carrier through the carrier openings.
