Through this window, a mark is visible within the pack, which is mounted on a separate blank or coupon. This blank covers the entire inside of the window so that the contents of the package, including the collar, are not visible.
  • a folding box with such labeling means can be produced only with effort, since a special packaging machine or a special unit is required for feeding and positioning the blank with the printing.
  • the invention has for its object to further develop a cigarette pack of the type folding carton or to make that in a simple way means for Labeling or identification of the package are available, which can be produced without special measures.
  • the invention is based on the finding that the pack blanks, in particular the typical blanks of a folding box, also prefabricated in terms of the outer print image factory and usually as a blank stack for the. Processing be delivered in a packaging machine. As a result, design changes in the field of packaging machine or associated systems are not possible.
  • the packaging material for the inner envelope in particular Stanniol, in the packaging machine by printing or embossing in a simple manner possible in the packaging machine a license plate, an emblem, coat of arms or the like to install, in particular by appropriate embossing of the material.
  • This special element is positioned in the area of the opening of the package blank and thus recognizable even when the package is closed.
  • the opening in the region of a front wall of the package in particular a (lower) box front wall of a folding box attached and accordingly the imprint or embossing in the region of an inner front wall of the inner blank.
  • a special feature is to attach the opening in the region of a particular enlarged collar, wherein the collar and the box front wall having mutually corresponding openings, preferably with different geometric configuration.
  • FIG. 3 The embodiments in the drawings are concerned with folding boxes for cigarettes.
  • This type of package consists of (lower) box part 10 and lid 11.
  • Packing parts consist of a common, one-piece blank according to Fig. 3 , The elongate blank forms successive areas for a box front wall 12, bottom wall 13, box rear wall 14, lid rear wall 15, end wall 16 and lid front wall 17. Connected to the latter is a lid inner tab 18 which is against the inside of the lid front wall 17 is folded over.
  • Box rear wall 14 and lid rear wall 15 are interconnected by a line joint 19.
  • Box side walls 20 and lid side walls 21 consist of side tabs 22, 23 which at least partially overlap and are bonded together by gluing.
  • the collar To a folding box belongs a collar from a separate blank ( Fig. 4 . Fig. 6 ).
  • the collar consists of a collar front wall 24 and lateral collar tabs 25.
  • the collar is positioned within the box member 10 with the Krageri front wall 24 inboard of the box front panel 12 and connected thereto (by gluing).
  • An upper part of the collar protrudes from the box part 10 and is in the closed position of the lid 11 includes this.
  • a package content ie a cigarette group, is from an inner blank ( Fig. 7 ), which consists of paper or Stanniol, so coated with metal paper.
  • the inner blank completely encloses the package contents and thus forms a cigarette block 26 with adjoining areas of an inner front wall 27, an inner bottom wall 28 and an inner rear wall 29. Furthermore, there are lateral fold tabs 30, 31 which in the finished cigarette block 26 by appropriate Folding and partial overlapping form sidewalls.
  • end flaps 32, 33 are provided which form a folded upper inner end wall.
  • an upper part of the inner blank is formed on the front side as a detachable flap or flap 34. This is delimited by a transverse perforation line 35 from the remaining part of the inner blank.
  • the flap 34 is detected by detecting the outer end flap 32 separated at first use of the pack.
  • At least one packing wall is provided with an opening 36, 37.
  • this opening 36, 37 is mounted in the region of the box front wall 12.
  • the opening 36, 37 exposes a corresponding surface of the inner blank, namely the inner front wall 27. This is therefore visible in the region of the opening 36, 37 from the outside.
  • the openings 36, 37 formed by punching can have different geometric shapes, for example form a triangle ( Fig. 1 ) or a circular area ( Fig. 2 . Fig. 8 ). Other, even complex geometric shapes of the openings 36, 37 are suitable.
  • the inner blank is provided with a marking 38.
  • This can be designed as a license plate or brand or logo. However, there may also be information or data identifying the package in terms of origin, place and time of production.
  • the marker 38 is an embossing. This is preferably applied in the preparation of the packaging material for the inner blank, namely in the usual processing of a web of packaging material in the range of embossing rollers.
  • the embossing rollers can be designed so that a peripheral part for embossing the marker 38 is easily replaceable in order to carry out a change of the marker 38 in the short term.
  • the marking 38 is expediently applied by printing, likewise in the area of the packaging machine.
  • the marker 38 is mounted so that it appears approximately centrally in the region of the opening 36, 37.
  • the collar is adapted to the shape and position of the opening 36, 37.
  • Fig. 1 extends the collar, in particular the collar front wall 24, into a lower portion of the box front wall 12, namely to the bottom wall 13 and to the vicinity of the bottom wall 13.
  • the opening 36 is located completely in the region of the collar front wall 24.
  • This is provided with a collar opening 39.
  • This may have the same geometric shape as the opening 36, 37.
  • the collar openings 39 are circular, with smaller dimensions (diameter) than the openings 36, 37.
  • the collar openings 39 are positioned so that at the predetermined relative position of the collar in the Pack or in the box part 10, the collar opening 29 at least partially, but preferably approximately centrally positioned in the region of the opening 36 or 37.
  • the attached to the inner cover marking 38 is therefore visible from the outside by the two punched, namely the opening 36, 37 on the one hand and the collar opening 39 on the other.
  • the opening 36 in the box front wall 12 is formed as an (equilateral) triangle.
  • the collar opening 39 mounted in the lower region of the enlarged or extended collar front wall 24 is of circular design, in particular concentric with the (likewise) circular marking 38, in such a way that the collar opening 39 lies completely and approximately centrally within the opening 36.
  • Fig. 5 and Fig. 6 is the collar ( Fig. 6 ) is provided with a V-shaped projection 40 at the lower edge portion of the collar front wall 24. Due to the predetermined relative position of the collar and the dimension, a portion of this projection 40 projects into the opening 37 (FIG. Fig. 2 ). This part of the collar or the collar front wall 24 is therefore visible in the opening 37. The relative position is chosen here such that the projection 40 also covers a portion of the marking 38.
  • the opening 37 is here positioned in the lower area of the box front wall 12, at least completely below the collar or the collar front wall 24.
  • opening 37 and mark 38 are covered until the first use of the package, so that the consumer when opening the Pack recognize the mark 38 and thereby assign the pack.

  • This outer wrapping 41 of clear film, which is generally used in such packs, is provided with a cover layer 42 in the area of the opening 37 or, at least in the area of the marking 38, which prevents the marking 38 from being removed before the outer wrapping 41 is removed.
  • the cover layer 42 may be a covering color layer or an inside or outside attached adhesive label.
  • the combination of an opening in the package on the one hand and with a mark on the inner wrapper on the other hand can also be positioned elsewhere in the pack, for example in the region of the lid 11.
  • the covering layer 42 With partially covering the outer covering 41, the covering layer 42 is positioned in the region of the cover 11, ie in the region of a film cap 43 which is separated from the outer covering by a tear strip 44 when the package is first opened.
  • the openings 36, 37 are expediently mounted in the factory production of the blanks by punching, in a common working cycle with the punching of the blanks themselves.
