Claims6
A container consisting essentially of:
- a multiplicity of similarly dimensioned, cylindrical beverage cans, each of the beverage cans having a height of H and a diameter of D,
- a front wall and a rear wall, the rear wall with width about equal to H and a height equal to
- N×D where N is equal to a positive, whole integer greater than 2;
- the front wall with the width about equal to H and a height equal to or less than (N−1)×D but greater than (N−2)×D;
- a top wall and a bottom wall, the bottom wall with a length about equal to (M×D) and width equal to about H and the top wall having width about equal to about H and length equal to or less than (M−1)×D and greater than (M−3)×D where M is whole, positive integer greater than 3;
- and,
- two equally dimensioned side walls, all the walls fixedly joining each other at about right angles.
