Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a packaging for cigarettes which can be produced from a single blank cut from a sheet of semi-rigid material and comprising indicators which guarantee the integrity of the packaging until it is opened by the user.
  • Cigarettes are usually sold in packs of twenty cigarettes, either rigid or flexible, grouped under flexible folder or rigid cartridge of ten packs. These packages generally contain an interior lining which contributes to the preservation of the aromatic and humidity characteristics of cigarettes.
  • Rigid packages are appreciated for their greater effectiveness in protecting the product from being crushed during consumption.
  • the packages with lid (“Hinged Lid”) facilitate access to smoking products. They are usually wrapped in a transparent overwrap film, for example polypropylene which, in addition to a protective and sealing function, acts as an integrity indicator.
  • This film is also provided with a generally adhesive tircel applied before overwrapping and allowing the opening of the package.
  • a first drawback results first of all from the fact that the junction plane of the lateral sides of the body and of the package cover coincide with that of the linings of these lateral sides.
  • the invention more particularly aims to eliminate these drawbacks.
  • the junction between the appendix and the anterior face of the body will be materialized by creasing.
  • the appendix can be stamped so as to be set back with respect to the front face of the body so that the front faces of the cover and of the body are in the same plane when the package is in the closed position.
  • This arrangement also has the advantage of reducing the lateral edges of the appendage to the level of the anterior edges of the lining of the lateral faces of the body.
  • the blank F 1 shown in FIG. 1 makes it possible to produce a pack of cigarettes such as those shown in FIGS. 2 to 5.
  • This package in the closed state has a rectangular shape and includes two rectangular trapezoidal parts, namely: a body 1 and a cover 2, these two parts 1, 2 being open at their oblique face which constitutes the assembly face (plane P, FIG. 5).
  • the rear face 3 of the cover 2 (small base) constitutes an extension of the rear face 4 of the body 1 (large base).
  • the connection between these two faces is provided by a fold line 5 which allows the cover to switch between an open position and a closed position.
  • the blank F1 is obtained by cutting and creasing a strip of semi-rigid cardboard.
  • the front end of the blank delimits a re-entrant trapezoidal shape 6.
  • the rear end has, for its part, a trapezoidal convex shape 7, the small base of which is extended by an appendage 8 of the same width (called inner flap).
  • the blank F 1 comprises two longitudinal fold lines L 1 , L 2 , the spacing of which corresponds to the width of the packet of cigarettes which it is desired to obtain. These two fold lines L 1 , L 2 delimit a central strip BC bordered by two lateral strips BL 1 , BL 2 of width substantially equal to the thickness of the package.
  • It also comprises six transverse fold lines T 1 to T 6 which extend over the entire width of the central strip of the blank and are associated, at the level of the lateral strips, with cutouts D 1 to D 5 , D ' 1 to D ' 5 .
  • the first fold line T 1 delimits with the anterior edge of the central strip, the above appendix 8 (inner flap).
  • the second fold line T 2 defines at the central strip a rectangular area 9 corresponding to the front face 9 'of the cover 2 and, at the level of the side bands BL 1 ; BL 2 , two flaps R 1 , R ' 1 , of trapezoidal shape, which constitute the lateral faces FL 1 , FL' 1 of the cover 2.
  • This fold line T 2 is extended by two transverse cuts D 1 , D ' 1 and by two longitudinal cuts D 2 , D ' 2 .
  • the third fold line T 3 defines with the second T ' 3 in the central strip BC, a rectangular area 10 corresponding to the upper face 10' of the cover 2 and, at the level of the side strips BL 1 , BL 2 , two rectangular flaps R 2 , R ' 2 which, once folded around the fold line T 3 , can be glued in lining on the back of the upper face 10' of the cover 2.
  • the fourth fold line T 4 is extended by two oblique cutouts D 3 , D ' 3 which extend parallel to the oblique edges BO 1 , B' O1 - BO 2 , B ' O2 of the re-entrant trapezoidal shape 6 and trapezoidal flaps R ' 1 , R' 2 .
  • the second line T 3 it delimits a relatively narrow rectangular area 11 which constitutes the rear face 3 of the cover and, at the level of the lateral bands BL 1 , BL 2 , two trapezoidal regions R 3 , R ′ 3 which constitute the lateral faces FL 1 , FL ' 1 of the cover 2.
  • the fifth fold line T 5 defines with the fourth line, a rectangular area 12 constituting the rear face 4 of the body 1, this area 12 being bordered by two lateral areas R 4 , R ′ 4 of trapezoidal shape which partially constitute the interior walls (linings) of the lateral faces FL 2 , FL ' 2 of the body 1.
  • the sixth fold line T 6 delimits with the fifth T 5 a rectangular area 13 constituting the bottom FC of the body 1, this area 13 being bordered by two rectangular flaps R 5 , R ′ 5 intended to be applied against the inner face of said FC fund.
  • This drawdown is made possible by the presence of the longitudinal cuts D 4 , D ' 4 and the transverse cuts D 5 , D ' 5 which extend the two ends of the fold line T 6 .
  • This sixth fold line T 6 also delimits, with the re-entrant shape 6 of the blank, a rectangular area 14 constituting the front face 14 'of the body 1 of the package. This area 14 is bordered by two lateral areas R 6 , R ′ 6 which constitute the lateral faces FL 2 , FL ′ 2 of the body 1.
  • the method of folding the blank in order to obtain a packet such as those which are shown in FIGS. 2 to 5, is of the conventional type and will therefore not be indicated in detail.
  • the bonding of the blank is obtained by means of bonding zones whose locations have been hatched.
  • the bonding zones which largely cover the flaps R 2 , R ' 2 can be bonded to the back of the upper face 10' of the cover 2.
  • the bonding zones which cover the flaps R 3 , R ′ 3 are intended to adhere to the back of the lateral faces FL 1 , FL ′ 1 of the cover 2.
  • the bonding zones which cover the trapezoidal areas R 4 , R ′ 4 are intended to adhere to the back of the lateral faces FL 2 , FL ′ 2 of the body 1.
  • a pack of cigarettes produced using the blank described above can have many defects due in large part to the difficulty of obtaining sufficient precision in the production of the cover 2, and correct positioning of the latter. vis-à-vis the body 1.
  • the invention therefore more particularly aims to eliminate these defects, without having to increase the complexity of the blank and this, by avoiding the use of any added element such as for example a reinforcing collar.
  • the packages produced according to the invention are better closed, therefore more airtight and therefore provide better protection of cigarettes against the outside environment.
  • the implementation of the invention does not require any significant modification of the packaging machines currently existing on the market.
  • these machines can be simplified due to the fact that it is no longer necessary to provide parts and devices ensuring the maintenance of the blank, during the various operations of shaping the packet, in particular after gluing, during the folding phases.
  • the lines for starting frangible cuts DF 1 , DF 2 consist of a cut partially interrupted by an attachment point A 1 , A 2 with easy break and frangible at the opening of the package.
  • This attachment point can be placed in A2 at the center of the cutout as indicated in FIG. 7 or in A 1 at the outer edge of the strip BL 1 , BL 2 , as indicated in FIG. 6.
  • the effort required to open the cover and therefore to tear the attachment points can be adjusted by adjusting the size l and / or the position and shape of the attachment points A 1 , A 2 .
  • a special feature of this solution is that the rupture of the attachment points A 1 , A 2 at the time of the opening of the cover 2 produces a characteristic noise which serves as an audible indicator of the integrity of the package.
  • Figures 8 and 9 relate to an embodiment of the invention involving a blank of the type shown in Figure 1 but in which the appendix 8 (flap) is removed while the small base of the re-entrant trapezoidal shape 6 (located at the other end of the blank), is extended by an appendage 16 having a shape similar to that of the upper part of a reinforcement collar of conventional type: the upper edge of the appendage 16 comprises a re-entrant cutout , trapezoidal designed to maintain vision and facilitate access to the products contained in the package when the cover is partially open.
  • the connection between the front face of the body of the package and the appendix 16 can be materialized by a creasing 17 or an embossing which makes it possible to have the cover in the same plane as the body of the package.
  • the primers for frangible cuts DF 3 , DF ' 3 form with the longitudinal fold lines of the blank an angle greater than or equal to 90 °.
  • the angle is adapted to the height of the appendage 16. Thanks to these arrangements, the upper edge of the internal wall of the lateral faces FL 2 , FL ' 2 of the body 2 is at the same level as the lateral portions. 18, 19 of the upper border 16 of the appendix (which extends the anterior face of the body) and projects slightly outward from the package.
  • appendix 16 ' which extends the small base of the shape re-entrant trapezoid 6 has a rectangular shape.
  • the lines of priming frangible cuts DF 4 , DF ' 4 are slightly oblique with respect to the longitudinal fold lines L 1 , L 2 of the blank, and form with them an angle of the order of 74.5 °. This angle is different from the angle of the oblique edges B O1 , B O'1 - B O2 , B O'2 of the ranges R 1 , R ' 1 and R 6 , R' 6 which is here 60 °.
  • This strip 20, 20 ′ which can be printed at the same time as the other parts of the blank can receive an advertising message.
  • the uncovered zones ZD (of triangular shape) of the inner wall of the lateral faces FL 2 , FL ′ 2 of the body 1 have an upper edge which extends at the same level as the upper edge of the strip 20 ′. These uncovered zones ZD come to bear on the strip 20 ′, as indicated in FIGS. 12 and 13 to ensure the above-mentioned wedging function.
  • the lines of primer of frangible cuts DF 5 , DF ' 5 are extended by two cutting portions 22, 22' produced along the fold lines L 1 , L ' 1 connecting the rear face of the body 1 to the two interior walls of the lateral faces FL 2 , FL' 2 of said body.
  • the fold line T ' 4 constituting a hinge between the body 1 and the cover 2 connects the lower ends of the cutting portions 22, 22'.
  • This fold line T ' 4 is therefore found in the same place as the usual fold line but offset by a height h relative to the internal lateral faces of the body so as to guide the closing of the cover.
  • the cutting primers DF 5 , DF ' 5 extend obliquely with respect to the fold lines L 1 , L' 1 for example by an angle equal to that of the oblique sides B O1 , B O'1 and B O2 , B O'2 .
  • This angle is a function of the height of the appendix 23 and the length of the cutouts 22 and 22 '.
  • appendix 23 has a rectangular shape whose width is equal to the above height h.
  • the reinforcing strip 23 ′ is extended at the level of the lateral faces FL 2 , FL ′ 2 of the body 1 by two portions of exposed internal wall ZD ′ of rectangular shape.
  • the rectangular area 9 which constitutes the front face 9 'of the cover 2 could be extended in its central part by a circular tongue 25 intended to come to engage in a slot 26 produced at the level of the groove 17 separating the front face 14' of the body 1, of the appendage 27 constituting the reinforcement (FIGS. 16 and 17).
  • the free edge of the rectangular area 9 as well as the free edge of the appendage 28 and that the creasing 29 could have a curved shape having the same radius of curvature, as indicated in FIGS. 18 and 19.
  • the primers of frangible cuts DF 6 , DF ' 6 also have a curved shape and are extended by longitudinal cuts similar to the cuts 22, 22' in FIG. 14.
