However, in the conventionally known tung reed type package, since the simple box type made of paper is mostly, the design is uniform and the appeal degree which promotes a consumer's purchase motivation is lacking.

The present invention has been made on the basis of the above circumstances, and an object thereof is to provide a package which can improve the degree of appeal to the consumer with a simple configuration.

In order to achieve the above object, the tongue-shaped package has a substantially rectangular parallelepiped shape, a case having an open end at an upper end, and a tongue rotatably connected to a rear edge of the open end via a lid hinge. A lid, comprising: a lid for opening and closing an opening end, and a tongue connected to the tip of the lid via a tongue hinge, wherein the lid is in the closed position. At this time, the tongue portion includes a tongue-shaped lid overlapping the front wall of the case, and an inner holder accommodated in the case, the inner holder having a recess for holding contents, and the case, tongue-shaped lid and inner side. The holder is formed of a transparent or translucent material, and the recesses are separated from the bottom wall and the side wall of the case, respectively, so that the contents in the recess are likely to float in the case. It looks.

In addition, since the inner holder has a box shape, and has a rear wall, a bottom wall, and a pair of side walls that define the recess, the inner holder is shaped to be easily put in and out of the case, and the contents of the rear wall in the recess. Is retained by the bottom wall and a pair of side walls.

In addition, since the bottom wall and the side wall have a hollow structure, a predetermined gap is formed between each of the bottom wall, the side wall, and the rear wall of the inner holder and the case.

In detail, the side wall and the bottom wall have an inner wall portion and an outer wall portion defining the inner surface of the concave portion, and the outer wall portion projects from the imaginary surface including the rear wall, so that the external force applied to the case from the outside is good. Absorption is suppressed so that an external force is directly applied to the inner pack.

In addition, the case includes a front wall, a U-shaped cutout formed at the upper edge of the front wall, and a slit formed on the front wall and positioned below the cutout, and the tongue-shaped fitting hook can be fitted into the slit. Since it includes, by fitting the fitting hook to the slit, the tongue-like lid is maintained in its closed position.

Moreover, it is preferable that the content contains the bundle of cigarettes and the inner wrapper which wraps this bundle, In this case, the deformation of a filter cigarette is suppressed favorably.

According to the present invention, since the case constituting the tongue lead-type package, the tongue lid and the inner holder are all colorless and transparent, the inner pack is visible, so the design is novel and excellent in appeal to the consumer.

In addition, since the bottom wall and the side wall of the inner holder have a hollow structure, the inner holder satisfactorily absorbs the external force applied to the case from the outside and suppresses the external force directly applied to the inner pack, thereby protecting the contents well. have.

Referring to FIG. 1, the tongue lid package 2 includes a case 4 and a tongue lid 6 connected to the case 4, and the tongue lid 6 includes a lid 5 and a tongue. It has the shape part 7.

The inner holder 10 is accommodated in the case 4, and the inner holder 10 supports the inner pack 8. The inner pack 8 will be described later. In the present embodiment, the case 4, the tongue-like lid 6 and the inner holder 10 are formed of a colorless transparent synthetic resin material.

The case 4 has a substantially rectangular parallelepiped shape, and has an open end 12 thereon. In detail, the case 4 includes a front wall 14, a rear wall 16, a pair of side walls 18, and a bottom wall 20.

As is apparent from FIG. 2, the front wall 14 has a cutout 22 in the center of its upper edge. This cutout part 22 has a substantially U-shape and forms part of the open end 12. The notch 22 opens the upper part of the front wall 14 of the case 4 largely, and facilitates taking out of the goods in the inner pack 8. Moreover, the front wall 14 has the slit 24, and this slit 24 is located under the notch 22. As shown in FIG. The slit 24 extends along the lower edge of the cutout 22, and both ends thereof have an arc shape.

The upper edge of the rear wall 16 is formed as a lid hinge 26. The lid 5 of the tongue-like lid 6 described above is connected to the rear wall 16 via the lid hinge 26, so that it can rotate around the lid hinge 26.

In this embodiment, both side walls 18 and bottom wall 20 are connected to each other through rounded corners. For this reason, both ends of the lower edge of the front wall 14 and the rear wall 16 are rounded corresponding to a rounded corner.

When the tongue-shaped lid 6 is rotated about the above-mentioned lid hinge 26, the lid 5 of the tongue-shaped lid 6 opens and closes the open end 12 of the case 4. When the open end 12 is closed by the lid 5, the tongue 7 of the tongue lid 6 is superimposed on the front wall 14.

More specifically, the lid 5 has a rectangular shape of the same size as the open end 12, while the tongue 7 has a semicircular shape. The lid 5 and the tongue 7 are connected to each other via the tongue hinge 28, with the tongue 7 about the lid 5, around the tongue hinge 28. ) Can be rotated. In addition, the tongue portion 7 has a hook portion 30 fitted in the center of the tip portion thereof. The fitting hook portion 30 is obtained by forming a cut in the tongue portion 7. When the tongue portion 7 is superimposed on the front wall 14, the fitting hook portion 30 is in a semicircular shape, which is convex toward the lid 5, that is, in the opposite direction to the tongue portion 7. A semicircular shape is formed and can be fitted to the slit 24 of the front wall 14.

As shown in FIG. 3, the inner holder 10 has a box shape similar to that of the case 4, and has a recessed portion 10a on its front surface. This recessed part 10a has the size which can accommodate the inner side pack 8, and is open at the upper end. More specifically, the inner holder 10 includes a rear wall 32, a pair of side walls 34, and a bottom wall 36, and the recess 10a includes the rear wall 32, the side walls 34, and the bottom wall. It is prescribed by the inner surface of (36).

When the inner pack 8 described above is supported in the recess 10a of the inner holder 10, the inner pack 8 is the rear wall 32, the side wall 34 and the bottom wall 36 of the inner holder 10. It is in the state surrounded by. On the other hand, the bottom part of the inner holder 10 has a contour shape made to match the inner surface of the bottom part of the case 4.

More specifically, as shown in FIG. 4 and FIG. 5, a predetermined gap is formed between the rear wall 32 of the inner holder 10 and the rear wall 16 of the case 4. In order to secure this clearance, the bottom wall 36 and the side wall 34 of the inner holder 10 form a hollow structure, and are open only to the rear surface. Specifically, the bottom wall 36 has an inner wall 36c, an outer wall 36d, and a space 36e secured between these inner and outer walls, and the inner wall 36c is connected to the rear wall 32. On the other hand, the trailing edge 36a of the outer wall 36d protrudes from the imaginary surface including the rear wall 32 by a distance corresponding to the gap.

The side wall 34 also has an inner wall 34g, an outer wall 34f, and a space 34e secured between these inner and outer walls, and the inner wall 34g is connected to the rear wall 32. The trailing edge 34a of the outer wall 34f protrudes from the virtual surface.

In addition, as shown in FIG. 3, the rear wall 32 has an upper wall 34d at its upper edge, and the upper wall 34d connects the upper wall 34c of each side wall 34. .

As is clear from the above description, when the inner holder 10 is accommodated in the case 4 together with the inner pack 8, the recess 10a of the inner holder 10, that is, in the recess 10a The inner pack 8 is in a state away from the bottom wall 20 and the side wall 18 of the case 4, and the case 4, the tongue lid 6, and the inner holder 10 are transparent together. Therefore, the inner pack 8 in the inner holder 10 appears to float in the case 4.

On the other hand, the inner pack 8 has a substantially rectangular parallelepiped shape and, as is apparent from FIG. 5, includes, for example, a bundle of rod-shaped tobacco products 38 and a packing material 40 surrounding the bundle. . As the tobacco product 38, a narrow filter cigarette is preferable, and specifically, the filter cigarette has a length of 98 mm and a circumferential length of about 22 mm. In addition, aluminum deposition paper can be used for the inclusion material 40, and the aluminum deposition paper includes a base paper and an aluminum film deposited on the surface of the base paper. This aluminum film not only protects the tobacco product 38 from moisture, but also prevents the release of fragrant odor from the tobacco product 38. On the other hand, in the wrapping material 40, laminated paper may be used in place of the above-described aluminum vapor deposition paper, and the laminated paper has a shielding layer for preventing the passage of moisture or an aromatic smell therein. It can be formed by paraffin wax.

When the consumer purchases the package 2, the tongue lid 6 of the case 4 remains closed (see FIG. 1). From this state, the consumer first picks up the tip of the tongue portion 7 in the tongue lid 6 from the front wall 14 of the case 4, and lifts the fitting hook 30 into the slit of the case 4. Pull out from (24). As a result, the coupling of the tongue-shaped lid 6 to the case 4 is released, and the opening operation of the tongue-shaped lid 6 becomes possible. Thereafter, when the tongue-shaped lid 6 is opened by the consumer, the inner pack 8 is exposed from the open end 12 of the case 4, and the consumer of the inner package 40 of the inner pack 8. By removing a part, the tobacco product 38 can be taken out from the inner pack 8.

Then, when closing the tongue lid 6, the consumer covers the lid 5 on the open end 12 of the case 4, and the fitting hook 30 of the tongue portion 7 is attached to the case 4; The tongue portion 7 is sandwiched on the front wall 14 of the case 4 while being inserted into the slit 24. As a result, the tongue-like lid 6 is held in its closed position.

In addition, in keeping the tongue lid 6 in the closed position, the tongue portion 7 may be sandwiched between the front wall 14 and the inner pack 8. Even in this form, the tongue-shaped lid 6 is kept in the closed state with the opening end 12 and the cutout 22 of the case 4 reliably closed.

In addition, when all of the tobacco products 38 in the inner pack 8 are consumed, the consumer takes out the inner holder 10 from the case 4 and supports the new inner pack 8 in the removed inner holder 10. After that, the inner holder 10 can be accommodated in the case 4 together with the new inner pack 8. Therefore, the package 2 of the present invention can be refilled, that is, reused of the inner pack 8.

According to the package 2 of the present embodiment, since the case 4, the tongue cap 6 and the inner holder 10 are all colorless and transparent, the inner pack 8 is peeked out from the outside of the case 4. In particular, since the inner pack 8 is supported by the inner holder 10, it appears to float in the case 4. For this reason, the package of this invention is novel and is excellent in the appeal degree which arouses the purchase motivation of a consumer.

In addition, since the bottom wall and the side wall of the inner holder 10 have the hollow structure described above, the inner holder 10 satisfactorily absorbs the external force applied to the case 4 from the outside, and the external force is applied to the inner pack 8. Suppresses direct application. In particular, the narrow filter cigarettes, while narrow in width, are the mainstream of tobacco products of female taste, but this kind of filter cigarettes is relatively easy to deform when applied from the outside. However, when the package of the present invention is used as a package of this kind of filter cigarette, deformation of the filter cigarette is well suppressed. In general, women often carry packages for tobacco products in their handbags, so the packages in the bag are subject to compression by other receptacles in the bag. However, even in such a situation, the package 2 of the present invention can satisfactorily protect the internal filter cigarette.

The present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiment, and various modifications are possible.

For example, the package 2 of the present invention can also be used in place of the hinge lid or the tongue lead type ordinary package. In this conventional package, the inner pack contains 20 filter cigarettes of normal size, each filter cigarette having a length of about 85 to 95 mm.

The case 4, the tongue lid 6, and the inner holder 10 are not limited to colorless and transparent, and may be colored or transparent or translucent.

Moreover, the package 2 of this invention is applicable also to accommodation of foods, such as a cake, besides tobacco goods.
