Description

The present invention relates to a cigarette and a cigarette package, and more specifically, it enables the cigarette to be taken out from the cigarette package without touching the filter portion in the mouth while ensuring the aesthetic appearance when opening the cigarette package. Regarding cigarettes and tobacco packages.

Cigarettes have traditionally been used habitually around the world.
Cigarettes are usually stored as a bundle of cigarettes in a box-type, can-type hard case, or soft case, carried in a pocket, etc., and taken out of the case when you want to smoke. ..
For example, Patent Document 1 discloses a box-type hard case as an example of such a cigarette package.
This provides a package for stick-shaped tobacco articles that does not easily contaminate the stick-shaped tobacco articles before smoking when the stick-shaped tobacco articles after smoking are returned to the package for stick-shaped tobacco articles, and is a storage unit for accommodating the stick-shaped tobacco articles inside. And a horizontal partition that partitions the storage in the horizontal direction orthogonal to the depth direction of the storage and suppresses the scattering of ash of tobacco articles after smoking. The horizontal partition has one bar-shaped tobacco article at a time. Includes a hole in the horizontal partition that penetrates.

According to such a package, the horizontal partition can suppress the ash scattering of the tobacco article after smoking. As a result, when the stick-shaped tobacco article after smoking is returned to the package for the stick-shaped tobacco article, the stick-shaped tobacco article before smoking can be made less likely to be soiled.

However, in each of the types of cases, the cigarettes are packed vertically in the case with the filter portion facing upward without any gaps, which causes the following problems.
That is, when taking out the cigarette from the case, it is necessary to pick up the filter portion in the mouth with a finger and pull it upward from the case.
In the recent corona crisis, people-to-human infections and people-things-to-human infections of coronavirus have been pointed out. On the other hand, the latter is often neglected.
For example, while you are out, touch an object with coronavirus (for example, vehicle straps, escalator railings, door knobs, elevators, push buttons on vending machines, etc.) with your finger and coronavirus on the surface of your finger. Pinch the filter part of the cigarette with your finger to which the coronavirus is attached, and take it out of the case. In addition, there are many situations in which coronavirus is taken into the body.

Such a situation can occur more prominently as the bar cigarette product is newer. That is, if a bundle of cigarettes is tightly packed in the case, it is necessary to pinch the filter part strongly with a finger and pull it upward. In this respect, if the number of cigarettes in the case decreases, , It is also possible to take out the cigarette by directly holding the filter part of the cigarette in the case with the mouth, but in the case of a new one, such taking out is difficult.

On the go, for example, in a private smoking space, a hand washroom is not usually provided, smoking after washing hands is not tolerated frequently, and if you wash your hands in the toilet, in a public toilet, Entering a public toilet itself increases the risk of infection, as it increases the chances of contact with droplets when washing the toilet bowl.
On the other hand, in a bar-shaped cigarette product, the chopped part is composed by wrapping finely chopped tobacco leaves with paper, and since it is softer than the filter part, the filter part is turned down and turned upside down. If it is stored in the case, it is rather difficult to pick up the upper part of the notched part from diagonally above and pull it out.
Further, from the viewpoint of temperature and humidity control, the bar-shaped cigarette products are packaged in a bundle by a package and stored in the tobacco package as a package, and when the tobacco package is opened, a part of the package is cut C. It is necessary to remove the bar-shaped cigarette product from the inside of the tobacco package by tearing along the above-mentioned. The problem becomes more apparent.
