A hand carrier used for carrying cans or bottles of drinks, for example, cola, juice, beer or the like. The present hand carrier is so constructed that it grips the circumferential projections of the cans or bottles, for example, the crown caps of bottles or the projected edge at either end of cans. The hand carrier can be made of lesser amount of paper material than the conventional box-type hand carrier and strongly grips the cans or bottles and allows them to be carried safely.

A hand carrier made of a thick sheet for carrying cans or bottles by gripping their circumferential projections, characterized in comprising: a bottom wall (22) and two side walls (24) provided one along either side of the bottom wall (22) via first scoring lines (23), at least one circular gripping hole (18) provided in the bottom wall (22) for gripping a can or bottle and having a smaller diameter than that of the circumferential projection (27) of the can or bottle to be carried, a second circular scoring line (28) formed concentrically with each of the circular gripping holes (18) and having a diameter larger than that of the circumferential projection (27) of the can or bottle to be carried, an annular region (26) defined between the circular gripping hole (18) and the second circular scoring line (28) and being transformable into a frustoconical gripper upwardly extending from the second circlar scoring line (28) simultaneously with the insertion of the can or bottle into the circular gripping hole (18) from the underside of the bottom wall (22), the frustoconical gripper being engageable with and tightly gripping the circumferential projection of the can or bottle from the underside thereof, reinforcing ear portions (50) provided one on each end of the bottom wall (22) and the side walls (24) via additional scoring lines (48), the configuration of the reinforcing ear portion (50) being an isosceles trapezoid having its base on the additional scoring line (48), each reinforcing ear portion (50) having further scoring lines (52) lying on the extensions of the first scoring lines (23), mid scoring lines (56) connecting the mid point (M) of the outer edge (54) of the ear portion (50) and two intersecting points, (C, C) of the first and the additional scoring lines (23) and (48), and lateral scoring lines (58) symmetrical with the mid scoring lines (56) with respect to the further scoring lines (52), and first triangular shaped portions (A1) defined by said further mid and lateral scoring lines (52, 56 and 58) and the outer edge (54) of the ear portions (50) being bent inwardly, and second triangular portions (A2) defined by said additional and further scoring lines (48 and 56) and third triangular portions (A3) defined by said additional and lateral scoring lines (48 and 58) and oblique line (60) of the ear portions (50) being bent substantially normal to the bottom wall (22) and the side walls (24), when the hand carrier is folded into its usable form.
