Technical field

Present invention relates generally to cigarette case field, particularly hinge-lid (hinged-lidtype) cigarette case。More particularly it relates to have the cigarette case improving structure, this improvement structure is for keeping the freshness of content。

Background technology

Cigarette pack is sold with different concrete embodiments。The traditional structure of cigarette pack includes etui, and this etui can be described as soft box or hard box。This box forms the shell of many medicated cigarettes (such as, 20 medicated cigarettes), and can be manufactured by cellulosic material or synthetic material (such as, plastics)。

Medicated cigarette has the shelf-life (shelflife)。Regrettably, many medicated cigarettes are just consumed until long-term storage, transport and retail display period。In some cases, when especially relating to transported across country or international transport, a cigarette package is likely to manufacturing and continued for several weeks the or even several months fails to be consumed after packaging。

One cigarette package is generally guaranteed the quality as from one-year age after the date of manufacture (unless vacuum seals in keeping in cold storage, this is uncommon)。After this year, medicated cigarette will become stale and off-flavor。This is because due to the evaporation of aromatic oil, indivedual medicated cigarettes become dry and frangible。Some shops and individual use humidor (humidor), and this humidor controls humidity to keep moisture and the freshness of Nicotiana tabacum L., but these are usually not used for finished cigarette。Additionally, humidor can not in transit time help tobacco package。

In order to be beneficial to maintenance freshness, wrap cigarette case typically by the outer package made by plastic sheeting。This outer wrap makes air and moisture not enter inside this cigarette case。Cigarette case usually also includes liner, and this liner is made up of stannum or other metal materials。Therefore, multiple structure is provided to help the freshness of maintenance tobacco product therein。Unfortunately, once packaging is opened, outer wrap the sealing provided is lost, and medicated cigarette bunch is exposed to external environment。This accelerates the loss of the dry of medicated cigarette and aromatic oil。
