Definitions

  • the present invention concerns packaging of smoking articles, such as cigarettes, cigarillos, cigars, and the like, which for the sake of brevity and clarity, will simply be referred to herein as "smoking articles".
  • smoking articles such as cigarettes, cigarillos, cigars, and the like
  • the invention relates to a pack of smoking articles, as well as to a blank for a pack of smoking articles and to a system and method of packaging smoking articles.
  • Cigarette packs generally fall into two broad classes, namely rigid and soft.
  • Soft packs as the name implies, are formed essentially of soft or flexible sheet materials.
  • Rigid packs by contrast, have an outer shell of card to contain a charge of cigarettes and typically have a hinged lid, which a user needs to operate to access the smoking articles.
  • the rigid type pack allows for good protection of the smoking articles and of any inner wrappings, such as a barrier layer provided to hinder moisture ingress or escape, but they can be relatively complex in construction and assembly, which can be a significant cost factor.
  • Soft packs are simpler and cheaper in construction but they carry a higher risk of damage to the contents in transport or handling.
  • the present invention concerns a hybrid form of packaging for smoking articles (i.e. cigarettes and the like) which may be described as semi-rigid.
  • smoking articles i.e. cigarettes and the like
  • various protective sheets have been placed between a charge of cigarettes and an outer wrap.
  • re-sealable packs which combine a rigid outer pack of cardboard and a soft inner pack with a re-sealable flap have been proposed.
  • Such packs aim to improve freshness of the smoking articles.
  • the low rigidity of the re-sealable soft inner pack can make the re-sealable flap difficult to re-seal, however, particularly when a few of the smoking articles have been removed.
  • an object of the present invention is to provide an improved pack of smoking articles. Another object of the invention is to provide an improved system and method of packaging such smoking articles.
  • the invention provides a pack of smoking articles, comprising: a frame of a semi-rigid material having a major panel arranged adjacent a face of a charge of smoking articles; and a flexible barrier sheet around the frame and the charge forming a sealed enclosure; wherein the frame supports the flexible barrier sheet over the face of the charge of smoking articles and inhibits damage to the smoking articles and/or the flexible barrier sheet under application of external pressure to the pack.
  • the frame of semi-rigid material which is placed between the charge of smoking articles and the soft or flexible outer barrier sheet, provides the pack with improved structural stability.
  • the improved structural stability helps protect the smoking articles in the pack from external pressure.
  • the frame provides sufficient counter-support to enable a user to effectively re-seal the pack via the re-sealable flap.
  • the charge of smoking articles and thus also the frame and, correspondingly, the pack itself, typically has a generally rectangular prismatic or rectangular parallelepiped or cuboid form.
  • the flexible barrier sheet may be attached to the frame of semi-rigid material in the pack; for example, by an adhesive or heat-activated bond.
  • the frame of the pack includes side flaps arranged adjacent opposite sides of the charge of smoking articles.
  • the side flaps preferably have at least one cut-out region such that each side flap is discontinuous over a length of the respective opposite side of the charge of smoking articles.
  • the side flaps are further substantially symmetrical with respect to one another and/or the major panel.
  • the invention provides a pack of smoking articles, comprising: a frame of a semi-rigid material having a major panel, side flaps, and optionally one or more end flap, which are arranged adjacent a face, opposite sides, and an end, respectively, of a charge of smoking articles; and a flexible barrier sheet placed around the charge and the frame to form a sealed enclosure; wherein at least one of the side flaps has a cut-out region, such that said at least one side flap is discontinuous over a length of the respective side of the charge of smoking articles.
  • the frame may provide enhanced structural stability to the pack while keeping a "soft" feel for the consumer similar to the soft packs described above.
  • the discontinuous nature of the side flap caused by the cut-out region means that the extent of the side flap is interrupted over a length of the respective side of the pack or that the side flap is not co-extensive with that side of the pack.
  • the cut-out region in the side flap is preferably provided in a substantially central region of the length of the respective side of the charge of smoking articles, or alternatively in an upper part of that side remote from the end flap.
  • the frame may optionally include an end flap, which is preferably at a base or lower part of the pack.
  • the frame of semi-rigid material has a substantially flat or planar form in a non-assembled or blank state. That is, the major panel, the side flaps with their cut-out regions, and the optional end flap of the frame all have a substantially flat or planar structure and are typically in hinged connection with one another along common edges.
  • the semi-rigid material is therefore preferably a semi-rigid sheet material, such as card, stiffened paper, paperboard, fibreboard, polymer sheet material, or the like.
  • the semi-rigid sheet material may be relatively flexible, regardless of its composition it should nevertheless also be dimensionally stable in order to impart structural stability to the pack of smoking articles, and thereby to protect the packaging and the smoking articles from damage (e.g. inadvertent compression or crushing) during transport and storage.
  • the major panel of the frame has a reinforced region, which may be of greater thickness than in other parts of the frame.
  • the reinforced region may comprise a multi-layered or folded-over portion of the semi-rigid material, which is optionally bonded to the major panel with adhesive.
  • the multi-layered or folded-over portion of the semi-rigid material is formed from the cut-out region of said at least one of the side flaps. In this way, the cut-out region can be employed not only to generate an enhanced soft-pack feel, but also to create a reinforcing flap, which may be bonded to the major panel of the frame.
  • the invention provides a pack of smoking articles, comprising a frame of a semi-rigid material having a major panel, side flaps, and optionally an end flap arranged adjacent a face, opposite sides, and (optionally) an end, respectively, of a charge of smoking articles; and a flexible barrier sheet around the charge and the frame, forming a sealed enclosure; wherein the major panel includes a reinforced region, which desirably comprises a multi-layered or folded-over portion of the semi-rigid material.
  • each reinforced region of the major panel is generally thicker than another part of frame.
  • the flexible barrier sheet of the pack is wrapped around the charge and the frame to form the sealed enclosure by virtue of sealed seams.
  • at least one of the sealed seams is preferably arranged to extend in one of the cut-out regions and/or in the reinforced region of the frame.
  • the frame in this embodiment is configured to better support the wrapping and sealing of the flexible barrier sheet during the packaging process.
  • the frame encompasses two minor sides, at least one end, and only one major face of a cuboid formed by the charge of smoking articles. That is, the frame preferably includes only one major panel. This major panel may be arranged over a rear face of the charge of smoking articles, but is more preferably located over a front face of the pack. By only covering one major face of the charge of smoking articles, the semi-rigid pack of the invention better imparts the feel of a soft pack to the consumer, while nevertheless still protecting the smoking articles contained therein.
  • each side flap of the frame with its respective cut-out region is hingedly attached to the major panel along a respective edge, with an opposite edge of each side flap being a free edge remote from the major panel.
  • the at least one optional end flap may be hinged to the major panel along a common edge.
  • the flexible barrier sheet is comprised of a metal foil or a plastic laminate or film, such as a metallized plastic film.
  • the barrier sheet desirably has a re-sealable access aperture or flap which is arranged at an upper end of the pack and the barrier sheet is preferably continuous in the location of the access aperture.
  • the barrier sheet is preferably continuous over at least one end of the charge of smoking articles, particularly the lower end of the pack.
  • the pack may further comprise a soft outer wrap of a flexible sheet material.
  • the present invention provides a blank for a pack of smoking articles, the blank comprising a semi-rigid sheet material and including at least one major panel which corresponds to a face of the pack, preferably side flaps which extend along laterally opposite sides of the major panel, and optionally also an end flap arranged at one end of the major panel, wherein at least one of the side flaps has a cut-out region, such that said at least one side flap is discontinuous over a length of that respective side of the major panel.
  • the major panel may include a reinforced region, which desirably has a multi-layered or folded-over portion of the semi-rigid material.
  • the reinforced region of the major panel may comprise a reinforcing flap which is formed from the cut-out region of the side flap.
  • the blank of the invention is designed to be assembled, e.g. by folding, to form the frame in the pack of the present invention.
  • the invention also provides a method of packaging smoking articles, such as cigarettes or the like, comprising the steps of:
  • the charge and the frame are wrapped or enclosed with the flexible barrier sheet by sealing portions of the barrier sheet together to form one or more seams.
  • the method further comprises the step of attaching the frame to the flexible barrier sheet; for example, by adhesive or thermal bonding.
  • the frame includes side flaps at laterally opposite sides of the major panel and optionally at least a partial end flap at an end of the major panel, wherein each of the side flaps has a cut-out region such that each side flap is discontinuous over the respective side of the major panel, and wherein at least one of the seams formed in the flexible barrier sheet extends in the cut-out region of said side flaps.
  • the invention provides a method of packaging smoking articles, such as cigarettes or the like, comprising the steps of:
  • the method further comprises the step of forming a reinforced region in the major panel of the frame, preferably by bonding a reinforcing flap from each cut-out region to the major panel, before placing the frame over or around the charge of the smoking articles.
  • the major panel of the frame may have a reinforced region which desirably includes a multi-layered or folded-over portion of the semi-rigid material, which may be adhesively bonded to the major panel.
  • the multi-layered or folded-over portion of the semi-rigid sheet material can be formed from the cut-out region of at least one, or both, of the side flaps. In this way, the cut-out region can on the one hand create an enhanced soft-pack "feel", while on the other hand also generating a reinforcing flap to be bonded to the major panel of the frame.
  • the charge and the frame are wrapped or enclosed with the flexible barrier sheet by sealing portions of the flexible barrier sheet together to form one or more seams.
  • at least one of the seams formed in the flexible barrier sheet is arranged to extend in the cut-out region and/or in the reinforced region of the frame. In this way, the major panel of the frame can be configured to support the wrapping and sealing of the flexible barrier sheet during the packaging method.
  • a blank 1 for use in the packaging of smoking articles, e.g. cigarettes or the like, is shown in Fig. 1 before it is assembled and/or folded to form a frame 2 which is placed around a group or charge G of the cigarettes C in the packaging procedure, as shown in Fig. 2 .
  • the blank 1, and thus also the frame 2 is formed of a semi-rigid sheet material, such as card or fibreboard, which - although certainly flexible - is nevertheless sufficiently dimensionally stable to support and protect the charge G of cigarettes C in a pack, shown later.
  • the blank 1 and the frame 2 include a major central panel 3, side flaps 4 in hinged connection with the major panel 3 at laterally opposite sides thereof, and an end flap 5 in hinged connection with the major panel 3 at one end thereof.
  • the hinged connections between the major panel 3 and the respective side and end flaps 4, 5 are shown in Fig. 1 as broken lines, whereas the solid lines represent separations or cuts.
  • the hinge or fold lines (broken) and the cut lines (solid) naturally influence how the blank 1 is assembled to form the frame 2 shown in Fig. 2 .
  • the frame 2 assembled from the blank 1 is configured to encompass or to cover a major face, two minor sides and at least one end of a rectangular or cuboid shape that is formed by the charge G of cigarettes C.
  • the major panel 3 of the frame 2 covers a major (e.g. front or rear) face of the cuboid shape formed by the charge G of cigarettes
  • the side flaps 4 of the frame 2 are arranged adjacent the two opposite minor sides of the charge G of cigarettes
  • the end flap 5 corresponds to a base flap arranged to support the ends of the cigarettes C in the charge G.
  • the major panel 3 includes an aperture 6 at an upper edge region thereof which facilitates access to the cigarettes C in the charge G covered by the frame 2.
  • the side flaps 4 at each of the laterally opposite sides of the major panel 3 include a central cut-out region 7.
  • the side flaps 4 are discontinuous over the length L (i.e. do not extend over the full length L) of the major panel 3 and/or of the charge G of cigarettes C.
  • a blank 1 according to a slightly modified embodiment, and a packaging frame 2 assembled from that blank 1, are illustrated.
  • the folding or hinged connections between the major panel 3 and the side flaps 4 and end flap 5 are shown in broken lines whereas cuts or separations are illustrated as solid lines.
  • the cut-out region 7 in this embodiment is formed by two parallel cut lines, which create a central reinforcing flap 8 at each laterally opposite side of the major panel 3.
  • these reinforcing flaps 8 are folded inwardly to thereby form the cut-out region 7 in the side flaps 4, but also simultaneously to form a reinforced region 9 of the major panel 3.
  • the reinforcing flaps 8 are adhesively bonded to the major panel 3, e.g. via glue spots 10, as the packaging frame 2 is assembled from the blank 1.
  • the reinforced regions 9 of the major panel 3 are double-layered or folded-over portions having a greater thickness, and thus greater stiffness and strength, in the frame 2.
  • the access aperture 6 for accessing the cigarettes C may be formed by a frangible seam, e.g. a line of perforations, which enable a consumer to break away a portion 11 at an upper edge region of the major panel 3 to form the access aperture 6.
  • a pack P of cigarettes C according to a particular embodiment of the invention is illustrated in perspective front and rear views.
  • This particular pack P of cigarettes may include the frame 2 shown in Fig. 2 or Fig. 4 .
  • the side flaps 4 of the frame 2 in this cigarette pack P have central cut-out regions 7 which are consistent with the blanks 1 shown in Fig. 1 and Fig. 3 of the drawings. Accordingly, the pack P of cigarettes C in Figs.
