A disadvantage of the known cigarette packaging is the inefficiency due to low reliability, because the packaging of cigarettes has been significantly changed and complicated, there are additional elements: an outer box - a container in which a pack of cigarettes is placed, a cut-out is made for the drive in the pack itself - in the inner container. There is also a special cutout at the end of the outer container to move the inner box. Also, in the outer and inner parts of the package, special cutouts are made for the exit of cigarettes.

The technical task of the proposed utility model is the development of a cigarette pack with an integrated cigarette supply device, which will increase the efficiency of using a cigarette package (removing the first cigarette from the package) by increasing the reliability of the built-in cigarette supply device.

The technical result is achieved by the fact that in a cigarette package with an integrated cigarette supply device, according to a utility model, the cigarette delivery device comprises a housing mounted to the base of the cigarette package, the housing contains a groove in which the support plate with the rod and the lower part of the conical spring are fixedly mounted, wherein the base plate with the rod is made of a plastic material - plastic (fluoroplastic), with the possibility of holding the conical spring in a compressed state.

A distinctive feature of the proposed utility model, unlike the prototype, is the installation of a cigarette delivery device, which is fixed inside the cigarette pack, i.e. inside the packaging for tobacco products. At the same time, the case of the cigarette supply device is fixedly fixed in the lower part of the cigarette package, forming an empty space between the bottom of the cigarette package and, in fact, the case of the cigarette supply device.

In the proposed utility model, in contrast to the prototype, there is a conical spring, a support plate with a rod, fixed in the groove of the housing. The base plate with the rod is made of plastic (fluoroplastic), with the possibility of holding the conical spring in a compressed state.

In the compressed state of the conical spring, the upper part of the support plate with the rod is placed in the groove of the housing. The location of the base plate with the rod is indicated by a marker on the outside of the base of the cigarette pack. When the consumer presses on the marker, the base plate with the rod is pressed out of a special groove, followed by the release of the conical spring, which has a buoyant effect, for example, 3.5 N on the cigarette mounted on top of the base plate.

Thus, unlike the prototype, the proposed utility model uses the minimum number of structural elements, moreover, the elements of the cigarette supply device are small, and there is no change in the packaging of cigarettes. By production ecological materials can be used: food plastic, stainless steel.

From the well-known scientific and technical literature and patent documentation, the author did not identify similar solutions with the claimed combination of distinctive features in the proposed utility model formula, which allows us to conclude that the proposed model "Cigarette pack with an integrated cigarette supply device" condition "novelty", and its practical the application allows to achieve a technical result, which consists in increasing the efficiency of using a cigarette pack (removing the first cigarette from the pack), due to increase the reliability of the built-in cigarette feeder.

The inventive utility model is illustrated by drawings, where:

in FIG. 1 - shows a cigarette pack with an integrated device for supplying cigarettes, General view;

in FIG. 2 is a general view of the cigarette supply device before actuation, (conical spring in a compressed state);

in FIG. 3 cigarette dispenser after actuation, (conical spring in the open state).

The proposed utility model (see Fig. 1, 2, 3,) is a standard cigarette pack 1 having a base 2 (represents the bottom of the pack). Inside the packet 1 to its base 2, a cigarette supply device is installed. All parts of the cigarette pack 1 for tobacco products are made of cardboard or other material.

The cigarette supply device consists of a housing 3 made, for example, of plastic; a conical spring 4, a support plate with a rod 5. A conical spring 4, and a support plate with a rod 5 are fixedly fixed in a special groove 6 made in the housing 3 of the cigarette supply device.

The housing 3 of the cigarette supply device is made in the form of a parallelepiped. The housing can be attached, for example, to the side walls of the pack, for example, with glue.

The support plate with the rod 5 is made, for example, of a plastic material, for example, plastic (fluoroplastic), which allows holding the spring 5 in a compressed state. With a small force on the rod, the support plate with the rod is released from the groove 6 and allows the conical spring 4 to work. That is, the conical spring 4 transfers the force to the support plate with the rod 5 to eject (push) the cigarette from the pack.

The prototype significantly changed and complicated the packaging of cigarettes, because a pack of cigarettes is placed in an additional external box - a container. And the drive of the mechanism for feeding cigarettes 8 is fixedly fixed to the base inside the outer box 2. In the lower void 6 of the inner container 3 for cigarettes there is a mechanism for feeding cigarettes 9, which is fixedly fixed inside the inner container 3 for cigarettes (Fig. 5). In addition, there is a cam mechanism, which complicates and reduces the reliability of the cigarette supply device, and, consequently, the efficiency of the cigarette pack with the cigarette supply device. Unlike the prototype, in the proposed utility model, the cigarette pack remains unchanged in the structural elements. In addition, in the prototype there are two elastic elements, with one elastic element fixedly mounted from one end to the upper part of the outer box, in the proposed utility model, a conical spring is installed in the device for supplying cigarettes, and is not taken out in a separate unit. In the prototype, the user's hand effort is transmitted to the cigarette through the cigarette supply mechanism, in the proposed utility model, the force is only applied to actuate the conical spring, that is, to release the conical spring, which pushes the cigarette independently, due to its elastic force. That is, in the proposed utility model, the user pressed the mark with little effort (thereby releasing the conical spring) and removed his finger from the mark. The conical spring itself pushes the cigarette. In the prototype, one of the elastic elements is rigid, with a high stiffness coefficient, in order to transfer the applied force from the first elastic element to the cigarette; if it is flexible with a low coefficient of rigidity, then the force cannot be transferred to a cigarette, because this element will simply bend, that is, the element will absorb the force of its deformation.

Utility model - a cigarette pack with an integrated device for supplying cigarettes is used as follows:

First, a cigarette supply device (hereinafter referred to as the device) is assembled, then the device is compressed, for example, using special glue to fix it inside the cigarette pack 1 at its base 2. Next, pack the cigarettes in pack 1, with one of the cigarettes being installed directly on the support plate with the rod 5. Outside of the cigarette pack 1 at its base 2, a marker mark is applied indicating the location of the base plate with the rod 5.

When the consumer acts on the support plate with the rod 5 by pushing the base 2 of the cigarette pack at the point indicated by the mark, the support plate with the rod 5 and the conical spring 4 are released, providing pressure on the cigarette mounted on top. As a result, the supply of one cigarette is ensured (i.e., the first cigarette from a whole pack of cigarettes). After one cigarette was removed from the pack, the density of the remaining cigarettes decreased, which makes it possible to easily remove subsequent cigarettes from the pack.

The installation of a mechanism for supplying a cigarette in a cigarette pack 1 for tobacco products reduces the number of steps taken to remove the first cigarette from the pack, which increases reliability. Also improves smoking hygiene.

Comparison of the proposed utility model with the prototype (see certificate on PM No. 0901 “Cigarette pack opened with one hand”, IPC B65B 19/00, bull. No. 34, publ. 10.12.2001) will also allow:

improve smoking hygiene,

increase comfort

improve the storage of tobacco products.

The proposed utility model has a technical solution that will expand the functional fitness of a cigarette pack containing packaged cigarettes, and implement a new approach to its packaging, which provides for placing mini-mechanisms for supplying cigarettes next to cigarettes needed by smokers. Therefore, the proposed utility model can be manufactured in the manufacture of tobacco products and meets the criterion of "industrial applicability".
