Abstract
The invention is directed to a wrapped bundle of smoking articles comprising at least one inner liner (3), wherein the inner liner (3) comprises an inner surface (320, 330, 340) with a top side, a bottom side (320) and at least one long side (330, 340) which is provided with an adherent section (37) for making tobacco shorts (4) stick to that adherent section (37)..
Description
- The invention relates to a wrapped bundle of smoking articles such as cigarettes and in particular of smoking articles comprising a filter such as filter cigarettes.
- For the purpose of packaging, a predetermined collation of a plurality of smoking articles is wrapped tightly into an inner liner to form a wrapped bundle.
- Typically an inner liner used to wrap a bundle of smoking articles is made either from a single packaging material for example paper or aluminum foil or from a combination of packaging materials for example paper, aluminum foil and a plastic material.
- After the bundle of smoking articles is wrapped in the inner liner the bundle is closed for example by gluing or sealing the inner liner flaps along the sides of the bundle as well as on the bottom and the top of the bundle. Typically, the wrapped bundle is then inserted into an outer pack for example a hinge lid pack or the hinge lid pack is assembled around the wrapped bundle.
- Alternatively, the wrapped bundle may be the outer package of the cigarettes. In that case, the inner liner is the outer wrapper of the pack of smoking articles.
- Smoking articles comprising a filter typically comprise a tobacco rod section containing cut filler and a filter section comprising one or more filter segments. As such, the filter cigarette comprises a filter end and a tobacco rod end.
- During the packaging process and subsequent pack transportation and handling tobacco particles may fall out of the tobacco rod. These tobacco particles are often referred to as "tobacco shorts". Because of the handling, the tobacco shorts tend to move inside the wrapped bundle. Even before the wrapped bundle is opened, the tobacco shorts may have migrated to the outside of the smoking articles, to the filter end of the smoking articles if a filter is present, and to the surface of the inner liner. Visible tobacco shorts give an undesirable appearance to a pack of smoking articles and to the smoking aticles themselves, and are particularly undesirable on the filter of a smoking article.
- In order to reduce the number of visible tobacco shorts the tobacco rod is compressed in the region of the tobacco rod end of the smoking article during the manufacturing of the smoking article. The compressed section is referred to as "high density end". The compression of the tobacco rod at the open tobacco rod end serves as a plug to keep smaller tobacco particles from falling out. Nevertheless, the high density ends do not completely avoid the occurrence of tobacco shorts.
- Accordingly, it is an object of the invention to provide a wrapped bundle of smoking articles that reduces the movement of the tobacco shorts inside the wrapped bundle and in particular to prevent the tobacco shorts from reaching the filter end if a filter is present.
- In order to further reduce the number of visible tobacco shorts, a wrapped bundle of smoking articles according to the invention comprises an inner liner, the inner liner comprising an inner surface, wherein the inner surface is provided with at least one adherent section for making tobacco shorts stick to said adherent section. The at least one adherent section avoids or at least reduces the movement of tobacco shorts away from the open end of the smoking article.
- The term "inner surface" of the inner liner is used throughout the specification to denote the surface of the inner liner that faces the smoking articles in the bundle. Depending on the shape of the bundle, the inner surface has two or more long sides, a bottom side and a top side. The long sides are parallel to the longitudinal direction of the smoking articles inside the bundle.
- The term "top side" of the bundle of smoking articles is used throughout the specification to denote the side of the bundle that is opened to remove a smoking article from the bundle. Typically, a smoking article with a filter is arranged inside the inner liner of the bundle such that the filter end of the smoking article is close to the top side of the bundle.
- The term "bottom side" of the bundle of smoking articles is used throughout the specification to denote the side of the bundle that is distant from the top side. Typically, a smoking article with a filter is arranged inside the inner liner of the bundle such that the high density end of the smoking article is close to the bottom side of the bundle.
- Preferably, the at least one adherent section is of low tack, sufficiently tacky to make the tobacco shorts stick to the at least one adherent section but at the same time not tacky enough for smoking articles to strongly adhere to the at least one adherent section. A suitable adhesive is a low tack adhesive, for example a synthetic semi-pressure sensitive hotmelt adhesive such as PRIMAGRIP 38-638 or for example a water based polyethylene adhesive such as TOBACOLL ZD 4404-01, both available from HENKEL AG or a removable acrylic based adhesive.
- Preferably, the at least one adherent section is provided on at least one long side of the inner surface of the inner liner. Preferably, the at least one adherent section on the at least one long side is arranged closer to the bottom side of the bundle.
- Alternatively or in addition, the at least one adherent section, or an additional adherent section, is provided on the inner surface of the bottom side of the inner liner, facing the tobacco rod ends of the smoking articles.
- It is preferred that the at least one adherent section is in the form of one or more stripes. Preferably, one to a hundred stripes are arranged on the long surface sides of the inner liner. In embodiments with three to ten stripes of adhesive, the stripes may be arranged either with similar spacing and width or with varying spacing and varying width. Where the three to ten adhesive stripes have a varying spacing or width, preferably the spacing is lower and the width of the adhesive stripes is greater near the bottom side of the bundle. Depending on the width and spacing of the stripes a larger number of stripes, for example twenty, fifty or one hundred stripes, may be arranged on the long sides of the inner surface of the inner liner.
- Alternatively or in addition, the at least one adherent section is covered only partially with adhesive, for example with a dotted, striped or grid pattern or with any other design of adhesive coverage.
- For example the one or more stripes have a width of between about 0.1 mm to about 10 mm, preferably, between about 1 mm to about 5 mm. If more than two stripes are present, the stripes preferably have a distance of between about 0.1 mm to about 10 mm, preferably, between about 1 mm to about 5 mm.
- It is further preferred that the one or more stripes of the at least one adherent section are arranged in a substantially horizontal direction. Preferably, one to ten stripes are arranged substantially horizontal on the long surface sides of the inner liner.
- Alternatively, the one or more stripes on the at least one long side inner surface are arranged in a substantially vertical direction.
- Alternatively, or in addition the at least one adherent section has for example the form of zigzag or wavy lines, dots, letter types, a grid, geometrical shapes like triangles, semicircles or other, combinations thereof or may cover the entire inner surface of the inner liner.
- The at least one adherent section may be produced by application of an adhesive or glue to the respective inner surface section. The glue is applied, for example, by a glue nozzle system in a glue application unit during the manufacturing process of the inner liner. Alternatively, the glue may be applied during the packaging process of the wrapped bundle.
- Another aspect of the present invention relates to a pack for smoking articles comprising an outer pack and a wrapped bundle inside the outer pack , wherein the wrapped bundle is a wrapped bundle as described above.
- In one embodiment the pack for smoking articles is a hinge lid pack, while in another embodiment the pack for smoking articles is a soft pack. Alternatively, the wrapped bundle according to the present invention is the final pack. In that case the inner liner is the outer and only wrapper of the bundle of smoking articles.
