The bottom side 24 comprises a bottom perimeter fold 25, a front flap 26, a back flap 27, a left flap 28, and a right flap 29. The bottom perimeter fold 25 is located along the bottom edge of the lateral surface 1 and allows the other components of the bottom side 24 to be positioned by the user in order to shape the bottom side 24. In the preferred embodiment of the present invention, the left flap 28 is positioned adjacent to the left side 4, and the right flap 29 is positioned adjacent to the right side 7. The preferred embodiment specifically has six compartments 38 within the lateral surface and, thus, has three columns of compartments 38 and two rows of compartments 38. The left flap 28 and the right flap 29 each comprise a column support portion 250, a column divider fold 260, a column divider portion 270, a row divider slit 280, and a locking end 290. For both the left flap 28 and the right flap 29, the column support portion 250 is connected to the lateral surface 1 along the bottom perimeter fold 25. The column support portion 250 is positioned with the bottom perimeter fold 25 to be perpendicular to the lateral surface 1 and is used support the columns of wine bottles within the present invention from the bottom. In the preferred embodiment of the present invention, only the two outer columns are supported by the column support portion 250 of the left flap 28 and the column support portion 250 of the right flap 29, and the middle column is supported by the front flap 26 and the back flap 27. The column divider portion 270 is connected adjacent to the column support portion 250 along the column divider fold 260, which is positioned opposite of the bottom perimeter fold 25. The column divider portion 270 is positioned with the column divider fold 260 to be perpendicular to the column support portion 250. The column divider portion 270 creates the separation between each column of wine bottles for the plurality of compartments 38. The locking end 290 is connected to the end of the column divider portion 270 opposite to the column divider fold 260 and is positioned parallel to the column divider portion 270. The row divider slit 280 is a gap that runs along the middle of the column support portion 250, through the column divider fold 260, and along the middle of the column divider portion 270.

In the preferred embodiment of the present invention, the front flap 26 is positioned adjacent to the front side 2, and the back flap 27 is positioned adjacent to the back side 10. The front flap 26 and the back flap 27 each comprise a row support portion 210, a row divider fold 220, a row divider portion 230, and a pair of column divider locks 240. For both the front flap 26 and the right flap 29, the row support portion 210 is connected to the lateral surface 1 along the bottom perimeter fold 25. The row support portion 210 is positioned with the bottom perimeter fold 25 to be perpendicular to the lateral surface 1 and is used to support each row of wine bottles within the present invention from the bottom. The row divider portion 230 is connected adjacent to the row support portion 210 along the row divider fold 220, which is positioned opposite of that the bottom perimeter fold 25. The row divider portion 230 is positioned with the row divider fold 220 to be perpendicular to row support portion 210 by traversing through the row divider slit 280. The row divider portion 230 creates the separation between each row of wine bottles for the plurality of compartments 38. The pair of column divider locks 240 is positioned on the row divider portion 230 opposite to the row divider fold 220, and each of the pair of column divider locks 240 is positioned adjacent to the column divider portion 270 of either the left flap 28 or the right flap 29. The pair of column divider locks 240 attaches the column divider portion 270 perpendicular to the row divider portion 230 so that the plurality of compartments are properly shaped within the present invention. The pair of column divider locks 240 allows a tapeless means to lock the row divider portion 230 in place with the column divider portion 250. The pair of column divider locks 240 are also known as “no tape locks” and “tapeless locks.” Each of the pair of column divider locks 240 comprises a lock slit 241 and a lock tab 242. The lock slit 241 is a gap that extends into the row divider portion 230 adjacent to either the column divider portion 270 on either the left flap 28 or the right flap 29. The locking end 290 of the column divider portion 270 is engaged by the lock slit 241 as the row divider portion 230 is positioned to be perpendicular to the row support portion 210. The lock tab 242 is located above the lock slit 242 on the row divider portion 230 and holds the locking end 290 in place so that the locking end 290 stays engaged to the lock slit 241. Once the pair of column divider locks 240 are engaged by the locking end 290, the entire arrangement of the left flap 28, the right flap 29, the front flap 26, and the back flap 27 is stabilized. The pair of column divider locks 240 stabilizes without the use of tape or other adhesive.

In another embodiment, the present invention specifically has four compartments and, thus, has two columns of compartments 38 and two rows of compartments 38, which can be seen FIG. 3. The left flap 28, the right flap 29, the front flap 26, and the back flap 27 are arranged differently in this embodiment, but the subcomponents and their functions for the left flap 28, the right flap 29, the front flap 26, and the back flap 27 stay the same. In this embodiment, the left flap 28 is positioned adjacent to the front side 2, and the right flap 29 is positioned adjacent to the back side 10. Consequently, the front flap 26 is positioned adjacent to the left side 4, and the back flap 27 is positioned adjacent to the right side 7. The left flap 28, the right flap 29, the front flap 26, and the back flap 27 are all still connected along the bottom perimeter fold 25. In order to reduce the number of compartment from six to four, the column divider portion 270 of the left flap 28 and the column divider portion 270 of the right flap 29 are pressed against each other so that the middle column is eliminated. Also in this embodiment, the row divider portion 230 for the front flap 26 and the row divider portion 230 for the back flap 27 have only one column divider lock 240 that is positioned along the middle of the row divider portion 230.

As can be seen in FIG. 4, the top flap 17 allows the user to cover the top hole 15 and completely envelop the plurality of wine bottles within the present invention. The top flap 17 comprises a lid 18, a lid fold 19, a brace 20, a brace fold 21, a closing tab 22, and a closing fold 23. The lid 18 is connected adjacent to the front side 2 along the lid fold 19 opposite to the bottom perimeter fold 25. The brace 20 is connected adjacent to the lid 18 along the brace fold 21 opposite to the lid fold 19. The closing tab 22 is connected to the brace 20 along the closing fold 23 opposite to the brace fold 21. When the top flap 17 is placed over the top hole 15, the lid 18 actually covers the top hole 15, the brace 20 supports the top flap 17 against the back side 10, and the closing tab 22 is inserted into the closing slot 36 in order to situate the top flap 17 in the proper position.

In order to close the present invention with the top flap 17, the front side 2 and the back side 10 need to buttress the necks of the plurality of wine bottles so that the plurality of wine bottles are adequately supported by the present invention. The plurality of indentation folds 14 are located on both the left side 4 and the right side 7 adjacent to the top hole 15. The plurality of indentation folds 14 are used to shape a left indented section 5 in the left side 4 and a right indented section 8 in the right side 7 by pressing the top of the front side 2 and the top of the back side 10 together. When the front side 2 and the back side 10 are pressed together, the front side 2 and the back side 10 bend towards each other. In the preferred embodiment of the present invention, the bends in the front side 2 and the back side 10 are no less than three inches in length from the top of the lateral surface 1 and are folded no more than 80 degrees. The top hole 15 narrows once the left indented section 5 and the right indented section 8 are formed. The lid 18 is shaped to only cover the top hole 15 in its narrowed shape and not in its original shape. Once the lid 18 covers the top hole 15 as shown in FIG. 5, the brace 20 supports the lid 18 against the back side 10, and the closing tab 22 is inserted into the closing slot 36.

The handle 32 allows the user to hold the present invention. The handle 32 comprises a front hole 33, a back hole 34, and a brace hole 35. The front hole 33 is positioned on the front side 2 adjacent to the top hole 15. The back hole 34 is positioned on the back side 10 adjacent to the top hole 15. The brace hole 35 is positioned on the brace 20. The front hole 33, the back hole 34, and the brace hole 35 are concentric with each other once the closing tab 22 is inserted into the closing slot 36. The front hole 33, the back hole 34, and the brace hole 35 should be appropriately shaped so that any user can place their hand into the handle 32.

Finally, the plurality of viewing holes 37 allows the user to view the labels printed on the plurality of wine bottles. The plurality of viewing holes 37 are positioned on the front side 2 and the back side 10 so that the user can easily see the labels printed on the plurality of wine bottles in each of the plurality of compartments 38. The plurality of viewing holes 37 are horizontally positioned in line with each other. In the preferred embodiment, the front side 2 has three viewing holes 37, and the back side 10 has three viewing holes 37. In the other embodiment, the front side 2 has two viewing holes 37, and the back side 10 has two viewing holes 37. The number of viewing holes 37 is directly proportional to the number of compartments 38.

Although the invention has been explained in relation to its preferred embodiment, it is to be understood that many other possible modifications and variations can be made without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention as hereinafter claimed.
