Two can pack sleeve and method

摘要

A method of packaging two cylindrical cans having the same height and diameter includes partially erecting a sleeve from a blank so as to have a single opening at the bottom of the sleeve; arranging the two cylindrical cans side-by-side in the partially erected sleeve such that a side of each cylindrical can extends beyond an outer periphery of the sleeve; securing the cans in the sleeve by folding a cross-panel over the opening at a location between the two cans such that the opening is divided into two smaller openings sized to prevent the cans from passing therethrough; and wherein a measured distance from the cross-panel to a side panel of the sleeve in the two smaller openings is less than a diameter of one of the cylindrical cans.

1. A method of packaging two cylindrical cans having the same height and diameter comprising:
partially erecting a sleeve from a blank so as to have a single opening at a bottom of the sleeve, the blank comprising a top panel, a front panel, a back panel, and a bottom opening, the front panel and the back panel each having a pair of side panels; arranging the two cylindrical cans side-by-side in the partially erected sleeve such that a side of each cylindrical can extends beyond an outer periphery of the sleeve; securing the cans in the sleeve by folding a cross-panel over the opening at a location between the two cans such that the opening is divided into two smaller openings sized to prevent the cans from passing therethrough, and wherein a measured distance from the cross-panel to each side panel of the sleeve in the two smaller openings is less than a diameter of one of the cylindrical cans, and wherein heights of the front panel, the back panel, and the side panels are equal.
