Description

  The present invention relates to a package of tobacco articles, a blank for packaging tobacco articles, and a method of folding a blank to form a package of tobacco articles.

  A paper having a flat, top-open box that houses a group of cigarettes, usually arranged in two superimposed layers, and a lid hinged to the box by a sticker glued to the box and lid So-called “shoulder box” packages of cigarettes are known. The inner collar of the box guides and supports the lid as it opens and closes, and keeps the closed lid in contact with the box by slightly preventing free movement of the lid. It protrudes from the side wall toward the lid.

  The “shoulder box” package of cigarettes is currently separate from the first blank, which is glued and folded to form a box, and is glued and folded to form a lid. A second blank to be bent and a third blank which is separate from the first and second and which is bent to form a collar which is inserted into the box and glued to its side walls And a sticker that is glued around the box and lid to hinge the lid to the box.

  Since work with these three separate blanks requires the execution of work involving three separate and independent packaging materials and three separate packaging units each folding the corresponding blank. The production of “shoulder box” packages of cigarettes is complex. Also, because three independent packaging units are used, the “shoulder box” manufacturing system is extremely bulky and if any one of the packaging units encounters a problem (eg, jam) The overall efficiency is also low because it must be shut down completely.

  Tobacco article packages designed to eliminate the above-mentioned drawbacks and cheap and easy to manufacture, blanks for packaging tobacco articles, and methods of folding a blank to form a package of tobacco articles This is the object of the present invention. The tobacco article is preferably a cigarette.

  According to the present invention, there is provided a package of tobacco articles, a blank for packaging tobacco articles, and a method of folding a blank to form a package of tobacco articles as claimed in the appended claims. The

  Reference numeral 1 in FIGS. 1 to 4 shows the entirety of a so-called “shoulder box” package of cigarettes.

  The cigarette package 1 is a flat top end that houses a group of wrapped cigarettes (cigarette articles) 3, ie, a group of cigarettes (not shown) wrapped by a sheet of foil wrapping material. 1 is opened, the lid 4 is closed to close the opened upper end 5 of the box 2 (FIG. 1), and the lid 4 is used to access the group of cigarettes 3 through the opened upper end 5 of the box 2. And a lid 4 hinged to the box 2 to rotate between an open position (FIGS. 2-4) rising from the box 2.

  As shown in FIG. 3, the box 2 has a parallelepiped shape and has a bottom wall 6 opposite the open top 5 and a front wall 7 opposite to and parallel to each other. It has a rear wall 8 and two parallel side walls 9 interposed between the walls 7 and 8. The lid 4 has the shape of a cup-shaped parallelepiped and is opposite to the bottom wall 6 of the box 2 when the lid 4 is closed and is parallel to the top wall 10 which is parallel to it. A front wall 11 which is opposite and parallel and parallel to and overlaps with the corresponding front and rear walls 7 and 8 of the box 2 when the lid 4 is closed; It has a rear wall 12 and two parallel side walls 13 that are parallel to and overlie the corresponding side walls 9 of the box 2 when the lid 4 is closed.

  As shown in FIG. 4, the lid 4 is hinged to the box 2 by a hinge 14 that connects the rear wall 12 of the lid 4 to an outer connecting wall 15 that is integral with the rear wall 8 of the box 2. Are combined. As shown in FIG. 5, the outer connecting wall 15 (ie, visible from the outside) is connected to the rear wall 12 of the lid 4 along the hinge 14 of the lid 4 at the upper end. And the inner connecting wall 16 (that is, not visible by being inserted between the rear wall 8 of the box 2 on one side and the rear wall 12 and the outer connecting wall 15 of the lid 4 on the other side) ) Is connected to the lower end of the outer connecting wall 15 along the transverse folding line 17a at the lower end and to the upper end of the rear wall 8 of the box 2 along the transverse folding line 17b at the upper end. Connected to each other and glued by glues 18 and 19 on one side to the outer connection wall 15 (but not to the rear wall 12 of the lid 4) and on the other side to the rear wall 8 of the box 2 ing.

  As shown in FIG. 1, the top wall 10 of the lid 4 is such that when the lid 4 is closed, the front wall 11 of the lid 4 overlaps the front wall 7 of the box 2 and is completely And the side wall 13 of the lid 4 is larger (ie, longer and wider) than the bottom wall 6 of the lid 2 so that it overlaps and completely covers the side walls 9 of the box 2. The top wall 10 of the lid 4 is such that when the lid 4 is closed, the front wall 11 of the lid 4 fits snugly on the front wall 7 of the box 2 and the side wall 13 of the lid 4 is the side wall of the box It is important to note that it is only slightly larger than the bottom wall 6 of the box 2 to fit snugly over 9. As a result, due to this feature, the box 2 guides and supports the lid as the lid is opened and closed, and slightly impedes the free movement of the lid 4, thereby making contact between the box itself and the closed lid. To maintain. In other words, the box 2 performs the function normally performed by color in this type of conventional package, thereby allowing the color to be removed from the cigarette package 1.

  The box 2 and the lid 4 of FIGS. 1 to 5 are formed from a single blank 20 as shown in FIG. 6 and this blank 20 is superposed on the corresponding walls of the box 2 and the lid 4. It has several panels that are shown using the same reference signs with letters.

  Referring to FIG. 6, the blank 20 has two inner longitudinal folds 21a and several transverse folds 17, which are two inner longitudinal folds 21a. Between the panel 11 ′ forming the front wall 11 of the lid 4, the panel 10 ′ forming the top wall 10 of the lid 4, the rear wall 12 of the lid 4 separated by the hinge 14 of the lid 4 and the outside Panel 12 '+ 15' forming the connecting wall 15, panel 16 'forming the inner connecting wall 16, panel 8' forming the rear wall 8 of the box 2, and panel 6 forming the bottom wall 6 of the box 2 ′ And a panel 7 ′ forming the front wall 7 of the box 2.

  The blank 20 is disposed on both sides of the panel 10 ', connected to the panel 10' along two inner longitudinal folding lines 21a, and two panels 13 'forming the two side walls 13 of the lid 4, Located on both sides of the panel 13 ', connected to the panel 13' along two outer longitudinal folding lines 21b, and overlaps on the corresponding panel 13 'to strengthen the side wall 13 of the lid 4 inside And two reinforcing wings 13 "glued to this.

  The blank 20 is connected to the panel 11 ′ along the transverse folding line 17 and is superimposed on and glued to the panel 11 ′ in order to strengthen the front wall 11 of the lid 4 inside. The blank 20 is preferably formed symmetrically between the panel 11 ′ and the reinforcement flap 11 ″ and has a window 22 (FIG. 1) for gripping and opening the lid 4. A through hole 22 ′ is defined in the front wall 11 of the lid 4. As an alternative to the window 22 in the front wall 11 of the lid 4, two windows identical to the window 22 in the front wall 11 of the lid 2 may be formed symmetrically in the side wall 13 of the lid, Further, it may be defined by a corresponding through hole formed symmetrically between the panel 13 ′ and the reinforcing wing 13 ″.

  The panel 11 'has two tabs 23 arranged on both sides of the panel 11', connected to the panel 11 'along two inner longitudinal folding lines 21a and glued to the panel 13'. The panel 12 '+ 15' is disposed on both sides of the panel 12 '+ 15' and connected to the panel 12 '+ 15' along two inner longitudinal folding lines 21a and glued to the panel 13 '. Two tabs 24 are provided. The outer edges of the two reinforcing wings 13 "preferably (as clearly shown in FIG. 11) cover the inner surface of the panel 13 'substantially completely, while at the same time the tabs 23 and In order to never overlap with 24, it is formed to generate a shape that is complementary to the shape of tabs 23 and 24 (to negatively reproduce).

  In one embodiment, each tab 24 is connected to the rear wall 8 of the box 2 along a tear line that tears when the lid 4 is first opened, with each side wall 13 of the lid 4 first opened. It is connected to the rear wall 12 of the lid 4 along the non-breakable portion of the inner longitudinal folding line 21a, and is connected to the outer connection wall 15 along the breaking portion of the inner longitudinal folding line 21a. This feature is achieved by maintaining the lid 4 in the closed position when transferring the package 1 from a packaging device that manufactures the package 1 to a cellophane (registered trademark) device that applies a transparent overwrap to the package 1. Is particularly useful in the production of

  The blank 20 has two panels 9 ′ arranged on both sides of the panel 6 ′, connected to the panel 6 ′ along two inner longitudinal folding lines 21 a and forming the two side walls 9 of the box 2. . Each panel 9 ′ is connected to the panel 9 ′ along the transverse folding line 17 and is glued to the panel 8 ′, and the transverse folding line 17 at the opposite end of the tab 25. And a tab 26 connected to the panel 9 'and glued to the panel 7'.

  One possible glue application layout of the blank 20 is shown in FIGS. 7 and 8, which are the front area (FIG. 7) of the blank 20 with glue 18 applied and the blank with glue 19 applied. 20, a rear region (FIG. 8). For example, by increasing the rear area of the blank 20 coated with glue 19 and correspondingly reducing the front area of the blank 20 coated with glue 18 as shown in FIGS. Obviously, the glue application layout of the blank 20 may be varied.

  Hereinafter, with reference to FIGS. 9 to 17, a suitable (but non-limiting) method of forming the cigarette package 1 by bending the blank 20 will be described.

  As shown in FIG. 9, first, by bending the panel 12 '+ 15' by 180 ° in relation to the panel 16 'and at the top thereof with the transverse folding line 17a as the center. And by folding the panel 16 'by 180 ° in relation to the panel 8' about the transverse folding line 17b and on top of this, the blank 20 is placed on itself (ie, Before the group of cigarettes 3 is placed on the panel 6 ', it is folded. The panels 12 '+ 15' and 16 'are preferably formed so as to form, for example, a Z-shaped fold and, obviously, as shown in FIGS. After 19 is applied to the panels 15 ', 16' and 8 ', it is bent by 180 ° simultaneously in relation to the panels 16' and 8 '.

  Preferably, by bending the reinforcing flap 11 ″ with respect to the panel 11 ′ and at the top thereof by 180 ° with respect to the transverse folding line 17 and at the top thereof, and the corresponding outer longitudinal folding line. By folding the respective reinforcing wings 13 ″ in relation to the corresponding panel 13 ′, centered on 21b and on top of this by 180 °, the blank 20 is placed on itself (ie a group of The cigarette 3 is folded (before being placed on the panel 6 '). Before the reinforcing flap 11 "and the reinforcing wing 13" are bent by 180 ° in relation to the panel 11 'and the panel 13', the reinforcing flap 11 ", for example, as shown in FIG. It is clear that glue 18 is applied to the reinforcing wings 13 ″ and the panels 11 ′ and 13 ′.

  When bent as described above, the blank 20 will have an appearance as shown in FIGS. At this point, the group of cigarettes 3 is placed on the blank 20, specifically on the panel 6 ′ of the blank 20, and the box 2 and the lid 4 are formed around the group of cigarettes 3. In order to do this, the blank 20 is folded around a group of cigarettes 3.

  As shown in FIG. 12, once the group of cigarettes 3 is placed on the panel 6 '(ie, the panels 12' + 15 'and 16', the reinforcing flap 11 "and the reinforcing wing 13" are folded). Then, each panel 9 ′ forming the side wall 9 of the box 2 is folded by 90 ° in relation to the panel 6 ′ around the inner longitudinal folding line 21a and on the group of cigarettes 3. To sing. Thereafter, as shown in FIG. 13, each tab 25 is rotated by 90 ° in relation to the corresponding panel 9 ′ around the transverse folding line 17 and on the group of cigarettes 3. And each tab 26 is bent by 90 ° in relation to the corresponding panel 9 ′ around the transverse folding line 17 and on the group of cigarettes 3.

  As shown in FIG. 14, when the two panels 9 ′, the two tabs 25, and the two tabs 26 are bent by 90 °, the panel 6 ′ And on the group of cigarettes 3 the panel 12 '+ 15', the panel 16 'and the panel 8' are folded together by 90 °, after which as shown in FIG. The panel 10 ′ is bent by 90 ° with respect to the panel 12 ′ +15 ′ around the transverse folding line 17 and on the group of cigarettes 3.

  At this point, as shown in FIG. 16, panel 11 '(and panel 11' as well as on panel 10 'and in relation to panel 10', centered on transverse folding line 17 The reinforcing flap 11 "), which is superimposed on and glued beforehand to it, is folded. As shown in FIG. 17, the panel 11 ', the panel 10', the panel 12 '+ 15', the panel 16 ′ And the panel 8 ′ are bent by 90 °, in the relationship with the panel 11 ′ around the inner longitudinal folding line 21 and on the group of cigarettes 3 by 90 °. Each of the tabs 23 is bent and the inner longitudinal folding line 21a is centered on the panel 12 '+ 15' and on the group of cigarettes 3 by 90 °. To bending a blanking 24.

  Finally, with respect to the panel 10 'around the inner longitudinal folding line 21a and on the group of cigarettes 3 by 90 °, each panel 13' is superimposed on the panel 13 '. At the same time, the corresponding reinforcing wings 13 "), which have been previously glued thereto, are bent to complete the cigarette package 1.

  In a preferred (apparently non-limiting) embodiment, panels 12 '+ 15' and 16 ', reinforcement flaps 11 ", and reinforcements that are folded before the group of cigarettes 3 is placed on the blank 20. The wing 13 ″ is folded outside the packaging device (for example, in a factory for manufacturing the blank 20 or on a dedicated folding device upstream of the packaging device), and the blank 20 around the group of cigarettes 3. The subsequent folding is performed on a packaging device (eg, “X6” manufactured by GD Societa per Azioni).

  In the alternative embodiment shown in FIG. 18, the rear wall 12 and the inner connecting wall 16 of the box are used to simplify the withdrawal of the cigarette from the group of cigarettes 3, ie the group of cigarettes 3. A window 27 is provided to allow user access not only to the upper wall of the rear wall but also to the rear wall portion. FIG. 19 shows a blank 20 for forming the cigarette package 1 of FIG. As can be observed, a through hole 27 'defining a window 27 is formed through the panels 8' and 16 'and is mirror symmetric about the transverse folding line 17b. .

  In one embodiment, a holding device may be provided to hold the lid 4 closed in contact with the box 2 by a given force that needs to be overcome to open the lid 4. For example, the holding device protrudes from the front wall 11 of the lid 4 and is elastically bent and elastically deformable appendage (or engaged with a corresponding seat formed in the front wall 7 of the box 2 (or , Two appendages that protrude from the side wall 13 of the lid 4 and engage corresponding seats formed in the side wall 9 of the box 2.

  In one embodiment, the cigarette package 1 has an outer sticker that is glued to the outside of the box 2 and lid 4 to cover the outer surface of the box 2 and lid 4 for substantially aesthetic purposes. However, this has the structural function of forming a further hinge which is arranged between the box 2 and the lid 4 and outside the hinge 14 and which operates in parallel with the hinge 14. May be.

  In another embodiment not shown, the reinforcing flaps 11 "and / or the reinforcing wings 13" are removed. The reinforcing flap 11 "and the reinforcing wing 13" function to conceal the cardboard edges of the front wall 11 and the side wall 13 of the lid 4 and to reinforce the front wall 11 and the side wall 13 of the lid 4, respectively. . Although useful, these functions are not essential to the cigarette package 1 and thus to save packaging and simplify the folding of the blank 20, the reinforcing flaps 11 "and / or Alternatively, the reinforcing wing 13 ″ may be removed.

  In the embodiment shown in the drawings, all the edges of the box 2 and the lid 4 are at right angles. In a variant not shown, at least some of the longitudinal and / or transverse edges are beveled or rounded.

  The above-described cigarette package 1 has a number of advantages.

  Specifically, the cigarette package is inexpensive because the box 2 and lid 4 are manufactured from a single blank 20 that can be easily processed on standard packaging equipment due to its design. And production is very rapid.

  Furthermore, in the cigarette package 1 described above, the connection between the box 2 and the lid 4 is directly on the blank 20 (as opposed to a simple outer sticker in a conventional “shoulder box” package). Being mainly defined by the formed hinge 14, it is extremely strong and accurate. The exact closure of the box 2 by the lid 4 is prevented by a slight deviation (ie, the friction between the lid 4 and the box 2 is excessive, which makes it difficult to open and close). The exact positioning of the hinge between the lids 4 is particularly important.

  Three times the thickness of the cigarette package 1 in the area of the hinge 14 (as clearly shown in FIG. 5, the rear wall 12, the outer connection wall 15, the inner connection wall 16, and the rear part of the box 4 Due to the superposition of the walls 8), the hinge region is particularly strong and rigid so that an accurate and consistent rotation of the lid 4 in relation to the box 2 is achieved. Guaranteed (ie not affected by wear).

  Finally, the cigarette package 1 described above does not necessarily require an outer sticker that is glued around the box 2 and the lid 4. Since the manufacturing is costly and difficult to apply accurately, the removal of the outer sticker can save significant costs. Furthermore, even if an outer sticker is selected that is glued around the box 2 and lid 4, it may be small, thus reducing material consumption and corresponding folding operations. It will be easy. The reason for this is that the box 2 and the lid 4 are connected by a hinge 14 formed directly on the blank 20 because the outer sticker does not have a structural function, It means that it is purely aesthetic.

  Also, in view of its numerous advantages, the design of the cigarette package 1 is suitable for the manufacture of packages for other tobacco articles (eg, cigars) or in contrast to a group of cigarettes 3. It may be applied to the manufacture of cigarette cartons that are substantially identical to the above-described cigarette package 1 except that it contains a group of parcels.
