Abstract
A bottle top engaging device is formed from a unitary blank which includes foldably joined main and auxiliary panels. Apertures of keyhole configuration are formed in both the main and auxiliary panels. A connector panel is foldably joined to one side edge of the main panel and is foldably joined on the other side edge to a stabilizing panel in which cutaway areas are formed and which complement the keyhole configuration of the apertures formed in the main and auxiliary panels. The invention is particularly applicable for use in conjunction with heavy duty bottles having flanged necks.
