Definitions

  • the invention relates to a package for tobacco, in particular for loose tobacco used for self-making or rolling cigarettes.
  • a conventional package for loose tobacco is designed as a soft pouch with a flap for closing the access opening of the pouch.
  • the object of the invention is to create a package for tobacco which has an appearance or design much different from that of a conventional pouch and which can provide additional options for improving usefulness, accessibility to the tobacco and freshness.
  • the package according to the invention comprises a receptacle and a closing structure.
  • the receptacle is adapted to accommodate loose tobacco and includes a front wall, a rear wall, a first and a second major lateral wall opposite to each other, and a first and a second minor lateral wall opposite to each other.
  • An access opening is provided in the front wall of the receptacle.
  • the closing structure is moveable relative to the receptacle from a closed position, in which the closing structure closes the access opening, to an opened position, in which the access opening is accessible.
  • the lateral walls generally have a smaller surface area than the front wall and the rear wall.
  • the "major” lateral walls generally have a greater length than the “minor” lateral walls.
  • the terms “first” and “second” are applied for definition purposes only; they could also be interchanged.
  • the package according to the invention can have similar dimensions as and look similar to a conventional cigarette pack, which is much different from a pouch and provides an attractive appeal. Moreover, the hard-box character of the package provides more stability in general.
  • the area of the access opening is smaller than the area of the front wall of the receptacle.
  • Such design improves the rigidity of the package.
  • the closing structure comprises a flap, which is hingedly connected to the receptacle at the side of the first major or minor lateral wall and is foldable from a closed position, in which the flap covers the access opening, to an opened position, in which the access opening is accessible.
  • the flap can be secured by means of a locking lid, which is hingedly connected to the receptacle (preferably at the side of the second major or minor lateral wall, i.e. generally opposite to the connection of the flap) and is swivelable from a locking position, in which it keeps the flap in the closed position, to an unlocking position, in which it releases the flap.
  • the flap and the locking lid are connected to the receptacle at the side of the first and second, respectively, major lateral wall.
  • the term "at the side of” does not necessarily mean that a respective hinge line runs on the surface area or along an edge of the lateral wall in question, but it is to express that a respective means for a hinged connection is closer to the lateral wall in question than to the opposite lateral wall.
  • the locking lid can comprise a main wall and at least one side wall emerging from an edge of the main wall.
  • the locking lid comprises four side walls emerging from edges of the main wall, wherein the locking lid is hingedly connected to the receptacle along a hinge line located at the free edge of one of the side walls and, preferably, at the rear wall of the receptacle.
  • the locking lid can be connected to the receptacle such that, in the locking position of the locking lid, a cavity is provided between the main wall of the locking lid and the second major or minor lateral wall of the receptacle. This cavity may accommodate, e.g., a cigarette paper booklet, see below.
  • the flap can comprise a first lateral panel and a main panel, wherein the first lateral panel and the main panel are separated by a fold line (creasing line) and, when the flap is in the closed position, the first lateral panel is close to the first major or minor lateral wall of the receptacle and the main panel closes the access opening.
  • the flap can also comprise a second lateral panel, wherein the main panel and the second lateral panel are separated by a fold line and, when the flap is in the closed position, the main panel closes the access opening and the second lateral panel is close to the second major or minor lateral wall of the receptacle.
  • a cigarette paper booklet is attached to the second lateral panel.
  • the flap can also comprise a sealing pad and/or a reinforcement means, which covers the access opening when the flap is in the closed position.
  • a package which includes a flap and a locking lid can be designed in a very attractive manner.
  • the package is rigid.
  • the locking lid keeps the flap safely in the closed position but can nevertheless be easily swivelled to the unlocking position.
  • the package can provide extra space for cigarette paper.
  • the cigarette paper gets already accessible while the access opening of the receptacle is still closed. This is just the right order of presentation of the equipment required for rolling a cigarette.
  • a locking lid without side walls or with less than four side walls is conceivable as well, in particular when the package does not include a cigarette paper booklet.
  • the locking lid is less rigid, and an additional securing means (e.g. a self-gripping fastener, like Velcro®) may be advantageous.
  • a self-gripping fastener like Velcro®
  • Other common fastener types e.g. using a magnetic foil, are feasible as well.
  • the closing structure comprises a front wall, a rear wall, a first and a second major lateral wall opposite to each other, and optionally one minor lateral wall, wherein the closing structure, in the closed position, surrounds the receptacle and wherein the closing structure, for transfer into the opened position, is slidable with respect to the receptacle.
  • the closing structure comprises a front wall, a rear wall, a first and a second minor lateral wall opposite to each other, and optionally one major lateral wall, wherein the closing structure, in the closed position, surrounds the receptacle and wherein the closing structure, for transfer into the opened position, is slidable with respect to the receptacle.
  • the package can comprise a stop structure, which is adapted to prevent the closing structure from being separated from the receptacle after transfer to the opened position.
  • the stop structure can include, e.g., a folded element at the receptacle and another folded element at the rear wall, front wall or a lateral wall of the surrounding closing structure, wherein one of the folded elements engages into the other one in order to limit the relative travel between the receptacle and the closing structure.
  • the packages of this design have a rigid structure and can be used in a very intuitive manner.
  • the access opening of the receptacle can be covered, in the closed position, by a fresh-keeping foil in order to keep the tobacco inside the receptacle fresh and to preserve its moisture content, at least partially.
  • the fresh-keeping foil may be attached, at one edge, at the receptacle and, at the opposite edge, at the closing structure, such that it is automatically rolled up when the closing structure is transferred into the opened position and releases the access opening. When the package is closed, this process is reversed.
  • a manually operated fresh-keeping foil (optionally a resealable one) is conceivable as well.
  • the receptacle includes a partitioning wall running essentially in parallel to the first major lateral wall and dividing the receptacle into a first and a second partition.
  • the second partition of the receptacle can be optionally subdivided by at least one additional partitioning wall, which preferably runs in parallel to the partitioning wall already mentioned.
  • the closing structure comprises a front wall, a rear wall, and a first and a second minor lateral wall opposite to each other (but not an optional major lateral wall). In the closed position, the closing structure surrounds the receptacle.
  • the closing structure for transfer into the opened position, is slidable with respect to the receptacle to expose the access opening of the receptacle at the side of the first partition. Additionally, the closing structure, for transfer into a second opened position, is slidable with respect to the receptacle in the opposite direction to expose the access opening of the receptacle at the side of the second partition.
  • a stop means can be provided which limits the relative movement of the closing structure and the receptacle to either side.
  • the first partition can accommodate loose tobacco. It is also conceivable to place into the first partition a conventional pouch filled with tobacco.
  • the second partition may be used for, e.g., a cigarette paper booklet, a lighter, filter tips or ready-prepared self-made cigarettes.
  • the additional partitioning walls mentioned above can provide compartments for accommodating such items and keep them in nice order.
  • the second partition can also comprise a profiled area adapted to hold at least one self-made cigarette.
  • the lateral wall of the receptacle at the side of the second partition may be designed such that it can be swivelled downwards to enhance access to the second partition, wherein the inner side of this wall comprises the profiled area to be used for storing (ordered and separated), e.g., filter tips or prepared cigarettes.
  • a receptacle is adapted to accommodate loose tobacco and includes a front wall, a rear wall, a first and a second lateral wall opposite to each other, and a bottom wall.
  • An access opening is provided opposite to the bottom wall, wherein the front wall is connected to foldable gusset-like (wing-like) extensions of the lateral walls and is swivelable away from the rear wall, about a hinge line in the region of the bottom wall, from a resting position to a use position for increase of the access opening.
  • a lid includes a top wall and a front wall, wherein the lid is hingedly connected to the receptacle in the region of the rear wall of the receptacle and is swivelable from a closed position, in which the lid closes the access opening and secures the front wall of the receptacle in the resting position, to an opened position, in which the lid releases the front wall of the receptacle.
  • the lateral walls and the bottom wall generally have a smaller surface area than the front wall and the rear wall. "In the region of” means “at or generally close to”, but is not limited to "at”.
  • the package according to these embodiments has some remote similarity to a conventional tobacco pouch, but it is more rigid and appealing because it also comprises elements of a conventional cigarette pack.
  • the lid can be hingedly connected to the receptacle along a hinge line located at an edge of the top wall of the lid, wherein the lid includes two lateral walls stabilising the front wall of the lid.
  • a top panel may be foldably connected to an upper edge of the front wall of the receptacle. When the lid is in its closed position, this top panel is placed opposite to the bottom wall of the receptacle. For allowing access to the interior of the receptacle, the top panel can be folded away.
  • the lid includes a rear wall and two lateral walls connecting the rear wall of the lid to the front wall of the lid, wherein the lid is hingedly connected to the receptacle along a hinge line located at an edge of the rear wall of the lid.
  • the height of the front wall of the receptacle and/or the height of the rear wall of the receptacle can be smaller than the height of the lateral walls of the receptacle, the heights being measured perpendicular to the bottom wall of the receptacle.
  • a securing device adapted to secure the locking lid or lid in the locked or closed position may be advantageous.
  • Suitable securing devices as such are well known in the art. Usually, they include a part at the locking lid or lid and a counterpart at the receptacle, for example a magnetic device (e.g. a magnetic foil interacting with a steel foil), a hook/hook device or a hook/loop device (like or similar to Velcro®), a push button device, a tab/slit device (e.g.
  • a sound-producing device adapted to produce a sound when the receptacle is moved relative to the closing structure or lid provides for an interesting effect.
  • the sound-producing device can comprise at least one tab protruding from the receptacle or from the closing structure or lid, wherein this tab interferes with a counterpart during the relative motion to produce a sound. Such tab may also aid in securing the lid in its closed position.
  • Many embodiments of a securing device as explained in the previous paragraph also produce a sound when operated and can be considered as a sound-producing device as well.
  • the package according to the invention may comprise at least one bevelled or rounded edge, e.g. at the receptacle or at the closing structure. Such rounded edges can provide an appealing effect.
  • a fresh-keeping foil e.g., a plastic film or a laminated material or an aluminium foil
  • a fresh-keeping foil is provided in the receptacle or at the access opening of the receptacle in order to keep the tobacco fresh and to preserve its moisture content, at least partially.
  • the access opening When the access opening is closed by a fresh-keeping foil, it may be opened manually or automatically upon access to the receptacle.
  • the fresh-keeping foil may be fixed at one edge of the access opening such that it can be lifted manually; as an option, a resealing means like a pressure-sensitive adhesive may be provided.
  • An example for an automatically acting fresh-keeping foil is given further above. It is also conceivable to manufacture the receptacle from a material which has inherent fresh-keeping properties, for example from coated or laminated cardboard.
  • Cardboard is a preferred material for the package according to the invention.
  • the package or parts thereof may be cut from an appropriate blank, folded, and glued, as is well known in the art.
  • Materials other than cardboard, e.g. plastic material or laminated material, can be used as well.
  • a fresh-keeping foil at the access opening of a package has already been explained above for some embodiments of the invention.
  • a re-sealable fresh-keeping foil at the access opening of the receptacle for example a foil interacting with a self-adhesive edge of the access opening, which the consumer partially peels off before taking tobacco from the receptacle and closes again when finished.

  • the package 300 comprises a receptacle 310 comprising a foldable front wall 312, a rear wall 314, a first lateral wall 316, a second lateral wall 317, a bottom wall 318 and an access opening 320 opposite to the bottom wall 318.
  • the size of the access opening 320 can be increased by swivelling the front wall 312 away from the rear wall 314.
  • gusset-like extensions 322, 323, 324 and 325 do not extend up to the upper edge of the front wall 312 and the upper edges of the first lateral wall 316 and the second lateral wall 317, respectively.
  • the front wall 312 can be swivelled about a hinge line 326 at the upper edge of a fixed front panel 328, close to the bottom wall 318.
  • two inserts 330 and 331 are glued to the inside of the receptacle 310 in order to increase the height of the first lateral wall 316 and the second lateral wall 317.
  • the closing structure of the package 300 is formed by a lid 340, which comprises a top wall 342, a front wall 344, a rear wall 346, a lateral wall 348 and another lateral wall 349.
  • the lid 340 is swivelably connected to the receptacle 310 via a hinge line 350 located at the lower edge of the rear wall 346 of the lid 340 and the upper edge of the rear wall 314 of the receptacle 310. Because of its rigid structure and the presence of the inserts 330 and 331, the lid 340 secures itself when in its closed position, such that there is no need for a tab like tab 234 in the embodiment of Figure 2 . However, an optional tab or another locking means can enhance the stability of the package in the closed position of the lid and can also indicate the action of opening or closing the package by a noise. General examples of suitable securing devices are discussed further above.
  • the package 300 is used in the same way as the package 200.
  • Figure 3(a) shows the lid 340 in its closed position. I n Figure 3(b) it is partially open, and the front wall 312 is partially unfolded. In the views according to Figure 3(c) and Figure 3(d) , the front wall 312 is almost fully swivelled away from the rear wall 314, such that an easy access to the interior of the package 300 is possible.
  • the packages 200 and 300 can be made from cardboard blanks, similar to the package 100. Although not explicitly shown in Figures 2 and 3 , the tobacco contained in the packages 200 and 300 can be kept fresh by means of a foil and/or a coating of the materials of the packages, similar to package 100.
  • FIG. 4 shows four isometric views of the package 400, i.e. Figure 4(a), Figure 4(b), Figure 4(c) and Figure 4(d) .
  • the package 400 comprises a box-shaped receptacle 410 having a front wall 412, a rear wall 414, a first major lateral wall 416, a second major lateral wall 417, a first minor lateral wall 418 and a second minor lateral wall 419.
  • An access opening 420 is arranged at the front wall 412, the area of the access opening being somewhat smaller than the total area of the front wall 412.
  • the access opening 420 can be covered by a fresh-keeping foil 422.
  • An edge area of the fresh-keeping foil 422 is attached to a first attachment area 424 located at the front wall 412 of the receptacle 410 close to the second major lateral wall 417, see Figure 4(c) and Figure 4(d) .
  • the opposite edge of the fresh-keeping foil 422 is fixed at a second attachment area 425 located on the inside of a closing structure 430.
  • the closing structure 430 comprises a front wall 432, a rear wall 434, a first minor lateral wall 438 and a second minor lateral wall 439.
  • the receptacle 410 can be slid into the closing structure 430 such that a closed position is assumed, in which the closing structure 430 surrounds the receptacle 410, see Figure 4(a) , and the fresh-keeping foil 422 covers the access opening 420.
  • the closing structure 430 is moved with respect to the receptacle 410.
  • Figure 4(b) shows an intermediate position. During this movement, the fresh-keeping foil 422 folds back automatically, thereby releasing the access opening 420.
  • a stop structure prevents the closing structure 430 from being separated from the receptacle 410 after transfer to the opened position.
  • this stop structure has been latched out in order to show the receptacle 410 and the closing structure 430 in a separated state and to permit a view at the parts of the stop structure.
  • the fresh-keeping foil 422 is still connecting the receptacle 410 and the closing structure 430, whereas in Figure 4(d) , the fresh-keeping foil 422 has been removed for providing a better view.
  • the stop structure comprises a tab 440 cut from the blank forming the receptacle 410 in an area of a cutout 442.
  • the tab 440 interacts with a flap 444 folded back from an edge of the rear wall 434 of the closing structure 430, see in particular Figure 4(d) .
  • the tab 440 grips into the flap 444, and the stop structure stops further movement when the tip of the tab 440 reaches the fold line of flap 444.
  • the fresh-keeping foil 422 covers the access opening 420 and prevents the receptacle 410 from moving out of the closing structure 430 in the opposite direction.
  • the closing structure 430 comprises a major lateral wall which provides a stop when the receptacle 410 is fully slid into the closed position. This major lateral wall can be provided with a cutout for pushing onto the receptacle 410 when the package 400 is to be opened.
  • Figure 5 shows an embodiment of the package which is very similar to the embodiment of Figure 4 .
  • the package 500 in Figure 5 is opened by moving the receptacle in parallel to the major lateral walls instead of in parallel to the minor lateral walls.
  • package 500 comprises a receptacle 510 having a front wall 512, a rear wall 514, a first major lateral wall 516, a second major lateral wall 517, a first minor lateral wall 518 and a second minor lateral wall 519.
  • An access opening 520 is automatically covered and uncovered by a fresh-keeping foil 522, fixed at a first attachment area 524 located at the front wall 512 of the receptacle 10 and at a second attachment area 525 located at the inner side of a closing structure 530, when the closing structure 530 is moved with respect to receptacle 510 to the closed position as shown in Figures 5(a) and 5(b) or the opened position, as shown in Figure 5(c) , respectively.
  • the closing structure 530 comprises a front wall 532, a rear wall 534, a first major lateral wall 536 and a second major lateral wall 537. Moreover, the closing structure 530 includes a minor lateral wall 538 having a cutout zone 539, see Figure 5(b) .
  • the receptacle 510 has been separated from the closing structure 530 in order to allow a view on the stop structure comprising a tab 540 formed in an optional cutout 542 of the rear wall 514 of the receptacle 510 and a flap 544 folded back at the rear wall 534 of the closing structure 530.
  • the embodiments according to Figure 4 and Figure 5 can be folded from cardboard blanks.
  • the moisture of the loose tobacco accommodated in the packages 400 and 500 can be largely preserved by fresh-keeping foils (also inside the receptacle; not shown in the figures) or by an appropriate coating or by the choice of material for the receptacle and the closing structure.
  • Figure 6 illustrates another embodiment of a package for tobacco, here designated by reference numeral 600.
  • the basic concept of the package 600 is similar to that of package 400, but the receptacle can be slid with respect to the closing structure, in parallel to the minor lateral walls, in both directions such that two partitions of the receptacle can be exposed independent from each other.
  • the package 600 comprises a receptacle 610, in which the total front wall is designed as access opening 612. Further, the receptacle 610 includes a rear wall 614, a first major lateral wall 616, a second major lateral wall 617, a first minor lateral wall 618 and a second minor lateral wall 619.
  • the receptacle 610 is subdivided by a partitioning wall 620 (running in parallel to the first major lateral wall 616) into a first partition 621 and a second partition 622.
  • the first partition 621 is designed to accommodate loose tobacco.
  • the second partition 622 is subdivided by further partitioning walls 624 and 625 in order to store, e.g., a cigarette paper booklet and other small items a consumer likes when self-preparing cigarettes.
  • the second partition 622 can also be used to accommodate prepared cigarettes.
  • a holder 626 (designed with a profiled area able to clamp individual cigarettes or filter tips) is fixed to the inner side of the second major lateral wall 617.
  • the second major lateral wall 617 is foldable about a hinge line located at the common edge with the rear wall 614 of the receptacle 610.
  • Two side extensions 627 of the second major lateral wall 617 which have arcuate upper edges, slide between the minor lateral walls 618, 619 and respective folded-over inner parts of the minor lateral walls 618, 619.
  • the partitioning wall 620 and the further partitioning walls 624, 625 may comprise rounded cutouts 628 to facilitate the access to the stored items with the consumer's fingers.
  • a similar cutout 628 is provided at the first major lateral wall 616 of the receptacle 610.
  • the second major lateral wall 617 comprises a pulling tab 629 which even allows to open the compartment comprising the holder 626 without moving the receptacle 610 relative to the closing structure described in the next paragraph.
  • a closing structure 630 surrounds the receptacle 610, see Figure 6(a) .
  • the closing structure 630 comprises a front wall 632, a rear wall 634, a first minor lateral wall 638 and a second minor lateral wall 639, but no major lateral walls.
  • Figure 6(b) shows the opened position, after the receptacle 610 has been slid to one side in order to expose the first partition 621.
  • Figure 6(c) the receptacle 610 has been moved into the opposite direction into a second opened position in which the items in the second partition 622 are presented to the consumer.
  • a stop structure which blocks a further movement of the closing structure 630 with respect to the receptacle 610 beyond the opened position shown in Figure 6(b) and the second opened position shown in Figure 6(c) , respectively.
  • the stop structure can comprise a protrusion at one or both of the minor lateral walls 618, 619 of the receptacle 610. At the end of each travel position of the receptacle 610 (i.e. when the opened position or the second opened position has been reached), this protrusion abuts at the end edge of a tab folded back from the respective side of the adjacent first or second, respectively, minor lateral wall 638, 639 of the closing structure 630.
