Description

1 parts
›FIG. 1 is a front elevation view of…

FIG. 1 is a front elevation view of a beverage can illustrating our new design;

FIG. 2 is a rear elevation view thereof;

FIG. 3 is a left side elevation view thereof;

FIG. 4 is a right side elevation view thereof;

FIG. 5 is a top plan view thereof;

FIG. 6 is a bottom plan view thereof;

FIG. 7 is a first cross sectional view thereof;

FIG. 8 is a second cross sectional view thereof; and,

FIG. 9 is a third cross sectional view thereof.

The closely spaced, gapped line pairs in FIGS. 1-4 are representative of a transition in the slope of the exterior surface of the can. The inner most solid line in each of FIGS. 7 and 9 and the single solid line in FIG. 8 are representative of the can wall cross section which is too small to be represented by double lines and cross hatching.

The broken line showing in FIGS. 1-9, including the top, a portion of the bottom, and the entire interior of the beverage can, are for illustrative purposes only and form no part of the claimed design.

the grant prints no section headings; every part label below is ours, taken from that part's own first words
