Eine Klappschachtel mit im unteren, bodenseitigen Bereich gebildeter verschließbarer Kammer ist bekannt durch DE-U G 90 11 4647. Die Kammer ist bei dieser Klappschachtel durch einen sich über die gesamte Breite erstreckenden Deckel verschließbar, der hinsichtlich Anordnung und konstruktiver Ausgestaltung dem bei Klappschachteln üblichen (oberen) Deckel entspricht. Des Weiteren ist im Bereich der bodenseitigen Kammer ein Kragen angeordnet, ebenfalls wie bei einer üblichen Klappschachtel. Gegenüber dem Inneren der Klappschachtel bzw. gegenüber den Zigaretten ist die Kammer durch eine zusätzliche Bodenwand abgegrenzt. Die Fertigung einer so ausgebildeten Klappschachtel ist schwierig. Insbesondere ist die Gestaltung eines Zuschnitts problematisch. Der Materialaufwand ist beträchtlich.A hinged box with closable formed in the lower, bottom area Chamber is known from DE-U G 90 11 4647. The chamber is in this hinged box can be closed by a cover which extends over the entire width and which in terms of arrangement and design, the usual for hinged boxes corresponds to (upper) lid. Furthermore, in the area of the bottom chamber a collar is arranged, just like a conventional folding box. Across from the inside of the hinged box or opposite the cigarettes is through the chamber delimited an additional floor wall. The manufacture of a hinged box designed in this way is difficult. The design of a blank is particularly problematic. The cost of materials is considerable.

Bekannt ist weiterhin eine Klappschachtel für Zigaretten, die im unteren Bereich eine separate Kammer für die Aufnahme von Streichhölzern aufweist (FR 2 105 408). Die Kammer ist mit einer durchgehenden Bodenwand gegenüber dem Innenraum der Klappschachtel abgegrenzt. Bei einer Ausführungsform dieser bekannten Klappschachtel ist im Bereich einer Schachtel-Vorderwand eine sich über die volle Breite der Packung erstreckende Schließlasche gebildet, die an den Seiten segmentartige Zwickel aufweist. Die Schließlasche kann in eine Schrägstellung geschwenkt werden, um die Entnahme von Streichhölzern zu ermöglichen. Auch die Herstellung dieser Packung ist aufwendig. Die Anordnung der Öffnung bzw. Kammer mit Schließlasche im Bereich der Vorderwand führt dazu, dass die Schließlasche nicht stets in exakter Schließstellung gehalten werden kann. Ein unbeabsichtigtes Öffnen ist unvermeidbar.A folding box for cigarettes is also known, the one in the lower area has a separate chamber for receiving matches (FR 2 105 408).

Diese definieren eine Faltlasche 41. An den Enden derselben sind durch gestrichelte Linien gekennzeichnete Faltlinien 42, 43 gebildet, die im Zusammenwirken mit einer weiteren, außermittig angeordneten Faltlinie 44 ein winkelförmiges Aufrichten der Faltlasche 41 ermöglichen. An den Eck- bzw. Randbereichen der Bodenwand 17 entstehen so bei der Herstellung der Klappschachtel winkelförmige Stützorgane 37, 38 für den Zigarettenblock 10.The support members 37, 38 are cut from the hinged box formed by punching and folding, in analogy to US 4,241,827.
