Definitions
- the present invention relates to a rigid package with a hinged lid and to a corresponding packaging method.
- a rigid cigarette package with hinged lid includes an internal wrapper that encloses a bundle of cigarettes and an external rigid container that houses the internal wrapper.
- US-A-4850482 discloses a rigid package for smoking articles designed so as to securely hold a bundle of cigarettes smaller than standard size in a (standard size) cigarette box that is larger than would be necessary.
- the technical problem at the base of the present invention is therefore that of designing a rigid package for smoking articles, in particular cigarettes, that solves the inconveniences of the prior art described above, and in particular that allows for the firm containment of a bundle of cigarettes that occupies a smaller volume of space with respect to the external container, without compromising the rigidity of the package itself, and all within the context of a simple and rational constructive solution.
- the aim of the present invention is that of meeting the above needs and at the same time overcoming the inconveniences described above with reference to the prior art.
- this aim is also obtained by a packaging method to make a rigid package of the previously defined type.
- Figure 1 shows a perspective view of a rigid package for smoking articles with the lid open, according to the present invention
- Figure 2 shows a side view of the package of figure 1 ;
- Figure 3 shows a top view of the package of figure 1, with the lid fully open;
- Figure 4 shows a perspective view of the interior of the package of figure 1 with the wrapper removed and the cigarettes visible;
- Figure 5 shows a blank for making the collar of tha package of figure 1.
- the reference number 1 is used to generally indicate a rigid package for smoking articles, in particular cigarettes.
- the package 1 comprises an external container 2 made of stiff paper or cardboard, with a cup-like shape and an internal wrapper 3 housed inside the container 2.
- the internal wrapper 3 encloses the bundle 4 of cigarettes of a parallelepiped shape.
- the external container 2 presents an open upper extremity 21 and it is equipped with a lid 22, having a cup-like shape and being hinged to the container 2 along a hinge 23 to rotate, with respect to the container 2, between an open position and a closed position of the open upper extremity 21.
- the lid 22 when it is in its closed position, lends a rectangular parallelepiped shape to the external container 2 with a top wall and a bottom wall, parallel to and opposite each other, two large lateral walls, parallel to and opposite each other, and two small lateral walls 26, also parallel to and opposite each other.
- a large lateral wall defines a front wall 24 of the external container 2
- the other large lateral wall defines a rear wall 25 of the external container 2.
- four longitudinal edges are defined, in this example right-angled, whereas between the top and bottom walls and the front 24, rear 25 and lateral walls 26, eight transverse edges in all are defined.
- the package 1 further comprises a rigid collar 5 (i.e. made of cardboard or stiff paper), which is folded around the internal wrapper 3 to cover at least partially an upper portion of the internal wrapper 3 and which is attached (usually by means of gluing) to the external container
- the internal wrapper 3 can in turn be attached by means of gluing to the external container 2 at a point where the collar 5 that is placed between the internal wrapper 3 and the external container 2 is not present.
- the collar 5 partially projects from the open upper extremity 21 (together with the internal wrapper 3 that it partially covers) and involves a corresponding internal surface of the lid 22 when that lid 22 is placed in the closed position.
- the collar 5 has a pair of barbs 6 that project laterally to engage the lateral walls of the lid 22 in order to keep the lid 22 in the closed position.
- the internal wrapper 3 is smaller than the external container 2.
- the internal wrapper 3 has a rectangular parallelepiped shape with a front wall 31 , which is located facing the front wall 24 of the external , container 2; two lateral walls 32, located laterally with respect to the front wall 31 and facing the lateral walls 26 of the external container 2; a top wall 33, which, when the lid 22 is in its closed position, is placed facing the top wall of the external container 2; and a rear wall, which faces the cavity 7.
- the collar 5 is placed between the internal wrapper 3 and the external container 2.
- the collar 5 comprises a front wall 51 , which is internally placed in contact with the front wall 31 of the internal wrapper 3 and externally placed in contact with the front wall 24 of the external container 2; two lateral walls 52, which are located laterally with regard to the front wall 51, are externally arranged to be in contact with the lateral walls 26 of the external container 2 and internally in contact with the lateral walls 32 of the internal wrapper 3; a rear wall 54, which is internally placed in contact with the rear wall of the internal wrapper 3 and externally located facing the cavity 7; two pairs of tabs 55, each pair departing from the two lateral walls 32 of the collar 5 in a direction that is parallel to the respective lateral wall 26 itself and then projecting therefrom, the edges of the tabs 55 coming into contact with the interior side of the rear wall 25 of the external container 2.
- the collar 5 surrounds the internal wrapper 3 containing the cigarettes entirely and the tabs 55 allow the rigid collar to be distanced from the rear wall 25 of the external container 2 in order to create the cavity 7.
- the cavity 7 is the free space that is created between the rear wall 25 of the external container 2 and the rear wall 54 of the collar 5.
- the amount of space dedicated to the bundle 4 of cigarettes is less than the overall volume available in the external container 2, this space in fact being defined by the collar 5 according to the present invention.
- the rear wall 54 of the collar 5 is placed parallel to the rear wall of the internal wrapper 3, and parallel to the rear wall of the external container 2, whereas the tabs 55 extend perpendicularly to these rear walls.
- the cavity 7 could equally be obtained with reference to the front wall, between the front wall 51 of the collar 5 and the rear wall 24 of the external container 2.
- the rear wall 54 of the collar 5 consists of two lateral tabs 54a, 54b that come together along the respective end tabs 58a, 58b folded and joined to form a fin 56 located perpendicularly to the plane defined by the rear wall 54 of the collar 5.
- the fin 56 is placed between the two pairs of tabs 55 and with its edge in contact with the inner side of the rear wall 25 of the external container 2, so that the rear wall 54 of the collar 5 is distanced from the rear wall 25 of the external container 2 and the whole package is strengthened.
- the fin 56 divides the cavity 7 in two parts 7a and 7b with the fin 56 in-between.
- the fin 56 is held in a fixed position by means of a pair of teeth 57 placed in contact with and to the sides of the fin 56, wherein each tooth 56 is obtained by cut applied to a respective lateral end flap 58a, 58b of the rear wall 54 of the collar 5.
- the collar 5 is made of a single blank 50 that is folded around the internal wrapper 3.
- the blank 50 comprises: a main panel 5 which forms the front wall 51 of the collar 5; two panels 52' to form the lateral walls 52 of the collar 5, placed on opposite sides of the main panel 5 ⁇ and divided from the main panel 5 by two longitudinal folding lines 60; and two panels 54a', 54b' that form the two tabs 54a, 54b that form the rear wall 54 of the collar 5, each located alongside the panel 52' and separated from the panel 52' by a longitudinal folding line 61.
- the blank 50 has U-shaped notches 55' applied to the two panels 54a', 54b' that form the rear wall 54 of the collar 5, each of these notches 55' is made in order to create the tab 55 by rotating the portion cut along the longitudinal folding line 61 that separates the panels 52' from the panels 54a', 54b'.
- the blank further presents two panels 58a', 58b' that constitute the two end flaps 58a, 58b which together form the fin 56, each placed next to panel 54a' and panel 54b' respectively and separated from these two panels by a longitudinal folding line 62.
- the teeth are obtained by applying a U-shaped cut 57' to each of the two panels 54a', 54b' which form the two tabs 54a, 54b that form the rear wall of the collar 5.
- This U-shaped cut 57' is applied near the folding lines 62 that separate the two panels 54a', 54b' that constitute the two tabs 54, 54b that form the rear wall of the collar 5, from the panels 58a', 58b' that form the fin 56.
- the internal U-shaped cut portion forms the tooth 57 when it is folded along a folding line 63 located perpendicular to the folding lines that divide the various panels from each other, as can clearly be seen in figure 5.
- the rigid package for smoking articles according to the present invention makes it possible to meet the needs and overcome the drawbacks discussed in the introductory part of the present description with reference to the prior art.
