Description of the Invention: [Technical Field] The present invention relates to a container comprising a plurality of smoking articles, and further comprising a method associated with at least one smoking article for lifting the smoking article Starting the component. [Prior Art] Tobacco articles are usually provided in a container composed of a billet and having a hinged lid. In order to remove the smoking article in the container, the consumer typically removes a transparent outer wrapper, opens the cover, and removes a liner that covers the upper end of the smoking article. Typically, the upper end of the smoking article is typically the mouth end of the smoking article. Here, in particular, the place where the smoking article is set up is pouted. When a cigarette is removed from the container, the consumer will touch the mouth of the smoking article. Some consumers would rather avoid touching the mouth end of the filter, especially if the mouth end of the smoking article includes a recessed filter. A smoking article having a concave filter is disclosed, for example, in European Patent No. EP 1 2990 1 2 . U.S. Patent No. 4,949,84, the disclosure of which is incorporated herein incorporated by reference in its entirety in the entire entire entire entire entire entire entire entire entire entire entire entire entire entire entire entire disclosure As for the cigarette in the packet, it is wrapped in a lining which is adhered to the bottom wall portion and the rear wall portion of the packet, for example, by gluing. When a piece of the blade at the front wall of the inner liner is pulled up, a portion of the bottom wall of the inner liner is raised so that the cigarettes of the first row can be lifted. However, compared to the prior art containers, the lining of the pouch must be substantially modified for the lining blank, and the packaging machine must be extensively modified 201109248. In addition, the raised portion of the liner and the front wall can be lifted during the lifting operation to apply pressure to the rod end of the sap. This will result in damage to the end of the stalk. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION Accordingly, it is an object of the present invention to provide a container which facilitates the extraction of smoking articles and which can be produced simultaneously in a high quality and cost effective manner. The object of the present invention is achieved by providing a container comprising: a plurality of cigarettes and a cup-shaped case for the articles of smoke, wherein the cup-shaped body comprises a bottom wall and a plurality of side walls And an opening; the container further includes a lifting element associated with at least one of the articles to lift the article away from the bottom wall of the container, wherein the lifting element includes a hinge portion, and the engagement portion thereof The department can engage with the upper end of the outer side of the smoking article. When the engagement between the lifting element and the smoking article occurs at a position on the upper end of the outer side of the smoking article, the tobacco rod end of the smoking article is not engaged and thus does not during the lifting movement May be damaged. In addition, the consumer does not need to touch the mouth end of the smoking article, because the lifting element can move the smoking article sufficiently away from the bottom wall of the container, so that the upper end of the covering can protrude beyond the inside of the container. Other smoking products. This allows the consumer to easily grab the upper end of the raised smoking article along the side. Moreover, the construction of the lifting element of the present invention facilitates the manufacture of the container of the present invention because the lifting element can be readily incorporated into a well-known manufacturing step during the manufacture of the container. Thus, the lifting elements of the present invention need only be slightly modified for conventional container manufacturing procedures and can therefore be implemented as a costly modification in conventional production lines. 201109248 The engagement of the lifting element with the upper outer end of the smoking article further allows the lifting element to have a small size and a simple geometry. This lifting of components does not cost much in their manufacture. As used herein, the terms "front", "back", "upper", "lower", "side", "top", "bottom" and the like are used to describe the relevant parts of the container assembly of the present invention. The terms are all referring to the container that is in an upright position and has a lid at the top end. In the case where the container includes a hinged lid, the lid is hinged to the rear of the container. The terms "left" and "right" are used with respect to the side walls of the container when the container is in an upright position when viewed from the front. When the container in the upright state is opened, the smoking articles contained in the casing can be withdrawn from the upper end of the container. The lower end of the article refers to the end that is closer to the bottom of the container. Therefore, the upper end is the opposite end of the smoking article. In the case where the smoking article includes a mouthful, the upper end of the smoking article is usually the filter end of the smoking article. The term "longitudinal" refers to a direction from the bottom to the top or from the top to the bottom. The term "lateral" means a direction perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of one of the front wall, the rear wall, or the side walls. This refers to the direction in which the lifting direction is directed away from the bottom of the container. The term "hinge line" refers to a line around which the cover pivots to open the container. The hinge line can be, for example, a fold line or score line located in the wall behind the container. Alternatively, the 'hinge line' can be a fold line or scribe line in a piece of material used to engage the lower edge of the back wall of the cover with the upper edge of the back wall of the case. The sheet material can be, for example, a label that is permanently or removably attached to the back wall of the lid and the rear wall of the box. Preferably, the hinge line is placed along the rear wall of the container at a level below the upper edge of the rear wall. Preferably, the smoking article is lifted from the bottom of the container by between about 5% and 50% of the length of the smoking article, preferably between about 10% and 30% of the length of the smoking article. Preferably, the lifting elements are part of an existing packaging assembly, such as a liner, inner frame, inlay, insert, or insert, or a piece of the existing package assembly. Any one of the blanks used. Preferably, the at least one smoking article in the container comprises a shoulder having a 'completely annular shape or a segment of a complete annular body on the outer side thereof, which is adapted to be lifted by the component Cohesion. The shoulder is along a segment of the smoking article, wherein the diameter of the smoking article changes along a direction from the tobacco rod end of the smoking article to the mouth end of the smoking article. The shoulder portion may include a ring member in the shape of a projection and a ring member in the shape of a latch or a slightly reduced diameter of the smoking article. Alternatively or additionally, the shoulder portion may be formed by an additional component that is secured to the article, which provides a portion that can be engaged by the engagement portion of the raised component. The shoulder is preferably formed with a sufficient angle' so that the lifting element can engage the smoking article in any surrounding position. However, depending on the arrangement of the smoking articles in the container, the shoulders may only partially extend around the smoking article. This shoulder makes it possible to combine the elements of the lifting element, thereby providing a positive locking or friction locking so that the lifting element can reliably transmit the force to the shoulder of the smoking article in a lifting direction, thereby lifting up This smoking article. In one embodiment of the invention, the shoulder of the smoking article is formed by the lower end portion of the filter paper wrapped around the smoking article. Filter paper is typically used for all filter cigarettes or filter cigars' and is wrapped around the filter portion of the smoking article. However, a cigarette without a filter may also include a paper ring, by which 201109248 changes the visual and tactile appearance of one end of the smoking article. The engagement of the lifting element with the edge of the filter paper provides the advantage that a shape feature that is generally available in filter cigarettes can be used to provide the lifting function. According to the present invention, a filter cigarette can be combined with the lifting member of the present invention without modification. Therefore, the manufacturing process of the smoking article does not need to be modified, so that the performance of the lifting function is not excessively costly. Preferably, the lifting element is sized such that it extends from the opening of the cup to below the lower edge of the filter paper. This feature provides the benefit that the lifting element only requires a lifting action toward the top to securely engage the lifting element with the filter paper to lift the smoking article. According to another embodiment of the invention, the lifting element is only frictionally engaged with the upper end portion of the outer side of the smoking article. Therefore, this engagement occurs via friction. No protrusions, shoulders or the like are required to lift the element to allow the smoking article to be lifted from the bottom of the cup by lifting the element. The present invention may also be applied to other forms of smoking articles which do not have filter paper or the like, but preferably include only a side which is cylindrical or elliptical in shape and which does not have any edges for positive locking. Additional projections, edges or shoulders on the upper end of the outer side of the smoking article can support the frictional engagement. In addition, the lifting element or smoking article or both may have a surface area where the coefficient of friction is increased relative to the remainder of the surface of the smoking article or the lifting element. This example can be a rough or sticky surface. Preferably, by simultaneously interacting with at least two locations at the upper end of the outer side of the smoking article, more interacting with each other by opposing the two ends on the outer end of the outer side of the smoking article. The lifting-like element will interact with the upper end of the outer side of the smoking article only by friction. 201109248 Preferably, the lifting element comprises a projection as a cooperating portion. This projection may be adapted to form a portion of the shoulder of the smoking article that is securely locked. Alternatively, the projection provides a positive force for lifting the friction between the component and the smoking article. The positive force of the projection relative to the smoking article can be used to ensure a secure lock between the projection and the shoulder of the article. This positive force can be generated by the elastic nature of the projection itself or the container 'which elastically forces the lifting element toward the smoking article." In one embodiment, the projection is formed by lifting the jaws of the member. 'The cymbal is folded along a crease in the lifting element. Thus, only a portion of a different flat blank is folded to form the lifting element, thereby forming a projection. The elasticity of this crease can be used to create a positive force that pushes the cymbal to the smoking article. The bracts may extend in a direction towards the smoking article, particularly in an upward direction towards the smoking article. Preferably, the flap hangs from the lifting element along a transverse flap hinge line. Preferably, the cymbal further comprises at least one transverse engagement edge that engages the smoking article. Preferably, the crotch has a rectangular or trapezoidal shape. In one embodiment, the transverse cymbal hinge line is located at the lower end of the cymbal such that the free portion of the cymbal is pointed upward. In this embodiment, the crotch is preferably pre-folded in a direction toward the smoking article. Advantageously, the spring force of the crease of the crepe hinge line will maintain the gusset in a state in which it has been biased toward the smoking article in the assembled packet. In an alternative embodiment, the transverse flap hinge is located on the lower end of the flap so that the free portion of the flap is pointed downward. In the latter case, the flap is preferably pre-folded at an angle greater than 90 degrees so that the spring force pushes the tab away from the lifting element and allows the flap to be in intimate contact with the smoking articles. In addition, this feature imparts the following benefits: When a force in the downward direction is applied to the crotch during lifting of the smoking article, the crotch is forced toward the direction of the smoking article, so that the engagement can be made. This has another effect in that the lifting element can be pushed back to its original position while the smoking article remains in the raised state. In one embodiment, the container includes an inner liner surrounding the smoking article, wherein the inner liner includes a pull tab adapted to be removed to allow the smoking articles to be removed. In this embodiment, the lifting element is attached to the inner side of the pull tab such that the lifting element engages the smoking article. When the tab is removed, the lifting element is preferably contacted with the smoking articles below the upper upper end of at least some of the smoking articles and engages and lifts the smoking articles. The top front section of the liner is typically formed with perforations to define a tab that is removable to allow removal of the articles of smoke located within the liner. This embodiment provides the benefit that the lifting element can be placed on the inner liner prior to cutting the liner. In particular, the lifting element is a hook strip that has been previously folded to provide a catch before cutting the liner. In another embodiment, the container includes an inner liner surrounding the smoking article. The lifting element is then in contact with the smoking article after the liner has been removed. The top section of the liner is typically formed with perforations to define a tab that is removable to allow for the removal of smoking articles located within the liner. Preferably, the pull tab is defined such that when the pull tab is removed, the outer end of the smoking article can be in contact with the lifting element. Alternatively, the lifting element can be configured in the inner liner, e.g. between a row of smoking articles and the inside of the liner, between the two rows of smoking articles. In an embodiment, the lifting element is attached to the pull tab. This way the removal of the pull tab will automatically lift the lifting element so that at least one smoking article can be lifted for easy extraction by the consumer. When the smoking system is in the raised position, the lifting element will be completely removed from the container along with the pull tab. The tab will be detached from the lifting element when it exceeds a predetermined maximum tension on the pull tab. Therefore, after the lifting member is lifted together with the smoking article by pulling the tab, the tab can be detached from the container. This allows the lifting element to remain in the packet and can eventually be reused for subsequent smoking lifting operations while the tab is separately removed for removal of the smoking article. In one embodiment, the lifting element includes a second flap adapted to engage the cup-shaped case when the lifting element is lifted by a pre-defined lifting height to provide the lifting element block. This causes the lifting element to stop at a defined position after the lifting operation of the finished smoking article. Preferably, the lifting element remains in a defined position without obstructing the consumer from removing the smoking article. For example, the lower edge of the inner frame can act as a stop that can engage the second jaw of the lifting element. In another embodiment, the lifting element includes a plurality of cymbals that are disposed at a plurality of different heights of the lifting elements. Thus, a plurality of smoking articles can be lifted at a plurality of different heights such that individual smoking articles can be easily taken out by the consumer' and the arrangement of the raised smoking articles is visually aesthetic.

201109248 第10圖顯示一舉起元件20之胚料,其具有一沿著 起元件20之全寬的舉起元件襟片22。因此,此舉起元 20適於啣合所有位於容器1之前列中的菸品1 7。 第11圖顯示舉起元件20之胚料,其提供多個位於 同高度處之襟片22。因此,如果此舉起元件20被用以啣 並舉起菸品1 7,則位於容器1之第一列菸品1 7中之諸中 菸品1 7將被舉得較高於與此諸中間菸品1 7相鄰接之諸 品1 7。諸襟片22全部朝一方向被摺疊,以便使得此諸襟 可延伸於一朝向菸品1 7方向上。 第12圖顯示一被運用於第5圖所示之第三實施例中 舉起元件20的胚料。此舉起元件20包括一襟片22 ’其 在朝向菸品1 7的方向,沿一摺痕2 6被摺疊以便能啣合 品。此外,該舉起元件20包含第二襟片29,其係在一下 位置及朝容器1沿一第二摺痕30被摺疊’以便在該舉起 件20以被舉起至特定高度後能啣合容器。 第1 3圖顯示一可被利用於第6圖所示之第四實施例 之舉起元件20的胚料。舉起元件20包括一由一摺痕26 多個切開部32所界定之襟片22。此襟片22可被摺向諸 品1 7以便啣合菸品於一外側上端部處。另外,舉起元件 包括一柄部31,其被設置在舉起元件20之一上端處’且 被固定至拉片1 9或被利用以能輕易地抓住舉起元件20 將之舉起。 第14圖顯示一根據本發明之另一實施例所實施之 起元件20的胚料。此胚料包含一摺痕26及在胚料內部 舉 件 不 合 間 菸 片 之 係 菸 側 元 中 及 菸 20 可 並 舉 從 -26- 201109248 摺痕26延伸的切開部32。因此,當該胚料沿該摺痕26被 摺疊’該襟片22將彎出該胚料之上部及因此在菸品17之 方向去突出’以便啣合菸品17。該胚料係沿該摺痕26被摺 疊’以致於該胚料之下部和該胚料之上部相接觸,以形成 該舉起元件20。或者,該摺痕26不會延伸跨該舉起元件 20之全體寬度,但只跨該襟片22延伸。在一實施例,當被 插入容器1時’該摺痕26係位在該襟片22之下》該襟片 22然後朝薛品被稍微預折,使得該襟片22之御合邊緣離開 該舉起元件主體之平面。在替代實施例中,當被插入容器 1時’摺痕26係位在襟片22之上方。在此實施例中,該襟 片被預折超過90度,以便當在容器時使該襟片22之啣合 邊緣前端向上。 第15圖顯示一根據本發明之第五實施例中所運用之 內襯1 8。此內襯包刮齒孔2 1以便使得拉片丨9可被輕易地 移除。另外,呈飽帶33形式之舉起元件20在內襯18之製 造過程中被加至此內襯上,以致使得此舉起元件20可延伸 通過拉片19區域。尤其,呈鉤帶33形式之舉起元件20被 摺疊並附著至內襯18之內側上。因此,當內襯18被包裹 在一捆菸品17周圍並被設置在一容器1內時,將可獲得一 如第7圖所示之形狀。當鉤帶33在內襯18之製造過程中 被加置時’將僅須以一習知之製造程序執行些微修改便 可。因此,此容器之製造成本可維持在低狀態。 舉起元件20較佳地係由一材料所構成,而此材料包括 足夠之強度以便使得襟片22可適當地與諸菸品17相啣 合。因此,例如紙、紙板及聚合物材料均可被運用。 -27- S. 201109248 此外,上述之舉起元件20的諸特徵可被結合,例如, 一柄部3 1可被設置在前述諸舉起元件20上。 第二襟片29可被設置在沿著舉起元件20之寬度的任 一位置處。此外,舉起元件20可具有一較大之高度,以便 使得上部27可被消費者方便地接近。舉起元件20之高度 僅被容器1之盒體2的上緣所限制。 諸襟片之高度較佳係3至4mm。此諸襟片之摺痕較佳 地係橫向的。 第16圖顯示一根據本發明所實施之舉起元件20的另 一實施例,其同時可在兩個位置處與一菸品1 7之外側上端 相互作用。舉起元件20具有兩突出部22,其協助增加一菸 品17之外側上端與舉起元件20間之摩擦。例如,舉起元 件20係一經鉸接蓋容器之一蓋件,例如一塵襟片。使用 時,如第1 6圖所示之舉起元件20可例如藉由沿著一類似 齒孔線之弱線撕開而被輕易地從胚料處分離。然後,舉起 元件20中之切除部在兩側處被置放於一菸品1 7之外側上 端上方,以便使得此切除部可當作一鑷子。兩個突出部22 在舉起元件20與菸品17之間產生足夠之摩擦力,以便在 舉起元件被向上拉起時可舉起菸品17。或者,爲當作容器 胚料之一部分,一內嵌件可被提供作爲舉起元件20,其提 供一切除部,而一菸品則藉此切除部而可經由在菸品1 7之 外側上端的兩側上啣合此菸品1 7而被舉起。 -28- 201109248 【圖式簡單說明】 第1圖係根據一第一實施例所實施之容器的剖面視圖,其 中此容器之蓋係成閉合狀態。 第2圖係根據此第一實施例所實施之容器的剖面視圖,其 中此容器具有一被舉起之菸品。 第3圖係如第2圖中所示之與濾嘴紙的邊緣相啣合之舉起 元件的放大圖。 第4圖係根據一第二實施例所實施之容器的剖面視圖,其 中此容器具有一被舉起之菸品。 第5圖係根據一第三實施例所實施之容器的剖面視圖,其 中此容器具有一被舉起之菸品。 第6圖係一根據本發明之第四實施例所實施之容器的剖 面視圖。 第7圖係一根據本發明之第五實施例所實施之容器的剖 面視圖。 第8圖係一根據本發明之第一或第三實施例所實施之舉 起元件的平面視圖。 第9圖係一根據本發明所實施之舉起元件的平面視圖。 第1 0圖係一根據本發明所實施之舉起元件的平面視圖。 第1 1圖係一根據本發明所實施之舉起元件的平面視圖^ 第12圖係一根據本發明之第三實施例所實施之舉起元 件的平面視圖。 第13圖係一根據本發明之第四實施例所實施之舉起元 件的平面視圖。 -29- 201109248 第14圖係一·根據本發明所貫施之舉起兀件的平面視圖。 第15圖係一根據本發明之第五實施例所實施之被配置在 一內襯上之舉起元件的平面視圖。 第16圖係一根據本發明所實施之與一菸品之外側上端部 相互作用之舉起元件的平面視圖。 【主要元件符號說明】 1 容器 2 盒體 3 蓋 4 鉸鏈線 5 盒前壁 8 盒底壁 9 盒後壁 10 蓋前壁 13 蓋頂壁 14 蓋後壁 15 內框 16 切除部 17 菸品 18 內襯 19 拉片 20 舉起元件 21 齒孔 22 襟片 S. -30- 201109248 23 濾嘴紙 24 邊緣 25 捲菸紙 26 摺痕 27 上部 28 固定手段 29 第二襟片 3 1 柄部 33 鉤帶 101 濾嘴紙長度 102 安全餘裕 103 舉起元件襟片長度-11-S 201109248 Preferably, the lifting element extends at least partially flat against one of the wall of the cup and is guided by at least one adjacent wall. This allows the lifting element to be in the desired position during the lifting operation and thus suitably engages the smoking article at the outer side of the upper end of the smoking article such that the smoking article is reliably removed from the cup-shaped casing It is cited. The lifting element can be in physical contact with the cup. For example, the lifting element has a width that is substantially the same as the interior of the cup. Therefore, the lifting element can be closely associated with the side walls of the casing and can thus be reliably guided therein. Preferably, the container includes an inner frame that is mounted within the casing, wherein the inner frame extends over the upper edge of at least the front wall of the casing of the container. This inner frame will be visible to the consumer after the cover is opened. The front wall of the inner frame may be printed with an indicator 'which may be the same or different from the index printed on the front wall of the case. Alternatively, or in addition, the inner wall of the inner frame may, for example, be cut into a special shape to reflect the brand of the consumer product. If necessary, the inner frame may also include a line of weakness to flatten the container. Preferably, the front wall of the inner frame is provided with a cutout at its upper edge. This will make it easier to remove the smoking articles in the container without significantly reducing the surface area of the front wall of the inner frame.

In particular, when the lifting element comprises a flap, the material in the area of the flap must provide a sufficient strength to snugly engage the smoking article during the lifting operation. The lifting element can be constructed from paper, cardboard, and polymeric materials. The drawings are incorporated in and constitute a part of this specification in order The illustrations are not intended to limit the invention, but are merely illustrative of how the invention may be made and used. Other features and advantages will become apparent from the following description of the invention. [Embodiment] A cross-sectional view of a container 1 according to a first embodiment of the present invention is shown in Fig. 1. This container 1 comprises a cup-shaped box 2 and a lid 3 which are connected along a hinge line 4. The lid 3 can be pivoted along the hinge line 4 when in the open state (Fig. 2). The cup-shaped casing 2 comprises a box front wall 5, a box right side wall, a box left side wall 'a box bottom wall 8 and a box rear wall 9 adjoining the hinge line 4. The cover 3 includes a cover front wall 1〇, a cover right side wall ′ 盍 left side wall, a cover top wall 13 and a cover rear wall 14 adjacent to the hinge line 4, preferably, the display body 2 and the 3 series Formed from a blank, this blank is folded and glued by -19-£201109248 to form the geometry described. The container 1 includes an inner frame 15 which is fixed to the inner side wall of the front wall 5' of the case and the inner side of the left side wall of the case so as to be protruded in parallel with the wall of the above-mentioned case. The inner frame 15 engages the lid 3 when it is closed so that the lid 3 can remain securely closed and the contents of the container 1 can be pre-protected. The inner frame 15 includes a cutout 16 from which the contents of the casing 2 can be removed. The casing 2 includes a bundle of wrapped tobacco articles 17 which are placed in a liner 18. Typically, the inner liner 18 is made of a metal plated paper. The inner liner 18 is glued to itself after wrapping around the tobacco products 17. The top front section of the liner 18 defines a pull tab 19 that is removable to allow removal of the smoking articles 17 located within the liner 18. Therefore, the inner liner 18 is provided with perforations to be removed when the pull tab 19 is pulled. Arranged between the inner frame 15 (or the front wall 5 of the box) and the inner liner 18 - a lifting element 20 in the form of an insert. This lifting element 20 can be accessed from the front side in the cutout 16 of the inner frame 15. Fig. 2 shows a state of the container implemented in accordance with the first embodiment of the present invention, in which the pull tab 19 has been removed, and the lifting member 20 has been lifted so that the smoking articles 17 are thus lifted up. The casing 2 is usually fitted snugly around the bundle of tobacco articles 17. Therefore, it is difficult to pick up a cigarette by directly grabbing it. In particular, for a filter or the like located at the upper end of the smoking article 17, there must be a suitable convenient extraction operation. This refers in particular to the case of a filter-type smoking article having a recess. However, according to the present invention, the tobacco articles 17 are not directly taken out from the casing 2, but are first lifted by the lifting member 20. -20- a. 201109248 The lifting element 20 engages at least one of the smoking articles 17 and lifts the smoking articles 17 together with the movement of the lifting elements 20 as shown in Fig. 2. Therefore, the lifting member 20 includes a hook that interlocks with the upper end portions of the tobacco articles 17. When the lifting element 20 is lifted to a certain height, it will be removed. Some of the smoking articles 17 are lifted and can be easily withdrawn in a convenient manner without touching the ends of the filter portion. Three columns of smoking articles 17 are provided between the front wall 5 of the box and the rear wall 9 of the box. The cover 3 is in a closed state such that the front cover wall 10 is in an adjacent state to the front wall 5 of the case. The inner frame 15 is in particular secured to the rear side of the front wall 5 of the box by being glued thereto. The articles 17 are wrapped in a liner 18 which includes a perforation 21 such that the tabs 19 of the liner 18 can be removed. A lifting element 20 is provided between the inner frame 15 (or the front wall 5 of the box) and the first row of smoking articles 17 and includes a slap 22 extending in the upward direction to the tobacco products 17 . The smoking article 17 includes a filter paper 23 at its outer upper end. This filter paper 23 forms a small edge 24 or lip above the front of the smoking article 17, particularly a cigarette paper 25. The perforations 21 defining the height of the tabs 19 are preferably defined in a position such that they are at least the filter paper length 101, safety margin 102, and lifted from the top of the smoking article 17. Below the sum of the component cymbal lengths 1〇3. Preferably, the lifting element has a length 103 of 4 mm and the safety margin 102 is 4 mm. For example, the filter paper has a length of 32 mm. When the pull tab 19 is removed, the tab 22 of the lifting element 20 will contact the smoking article 17 located below the edge 24 of the filter paper 23. Because the cymbal 22 is 21-S. 201109248 is folded along a crease 26, the close contact of the cymbal is possible, and the elastic nature of the lifting element material will produce a singularity on the cymbal 22. A force is generated in the direction of the product 17. Some pressure is now applied to lift the upper portion 27 of the element 20, and the lifting element 20 is moved to the portion by friction. After a lifting motion of a certain height distance, the lifting element 20 will engage the edge 24 of the filter paper 23 with its sheet 22. Figure 3 shows an enlarged view of the engagement between the crotch panel 22 of the lifting element 20 and the edge 24 of the filter paper 23. In this embodiment, the formation is possible due to the thickness of the mouth paper 23, which thickness forms the edge 24 which is sufficient to achieve the overlap between the lifting element crotch 22 and the smoking articles 17. This engagement is supported by the spring force of the crease 26 and the pressure applied by the consumer to the upper portion 27 of the element 20. When a force is applied to the upper portion 27 of the member 20, the upper portion 27 of the lifting member 20 will be in contact with the upper portion of the smoking article 17. Subsequently, as shown in Fig. 2, the lifting member 20 is further pulled up to lift a smoking article 17 so that the smoking article can protrude from the opening of the casing 2. This smoking article 17 will now be easily withdrawn. If the lifting element 20 is moved further to the top, the lifting element 20 can be removed from the container 1. A second embodiment of the present invention is shown in Fig. 4, which differs from the first embodiment in that the fixing means 28 is provided to fix the lifting member (which is an insert) to the pull tab 19. In addition, in order to achieve a fit between the flap 22 and the edge 24 of the flap 23, the perforations of the tab 19 are now configured to be positioned above the flap 22. The filter can be moved toward the top of the piece. 20 Filter 21 -22- $ 201109248 Therefore, when the consumer lifts the pull tab 19, the perforation 21 will be torn open and the component 20 will be lifted. It is lifted together with the pull tab 19. The lifting element 20 engages the edge 24 of the filter paper 23 with its flap 22 and lifts at least one smoking article 17 in a position as shown in Fig. 4 so that the item can be easily removed . The pull tab 19 can be lifted by the consumer until the lifting member 20 is removed from the casing 2 such that the lifting member 20 and the pull tab 19 can be removed together. Fig. 5 shows a third embodiment of a container 1 constructed in accordance with the present invention. The lifting element 20 (which is an inner insert) additionally includes at least one second cymbal 29 that is folded along a crease 26, and the crease 26 is disposed at a lower relative to the crease Location. The second flap 29 extends toward the front wall 5 of the box. When the lifting element 20 is fully lifted as shown in Figure 5, the second flap 29 engages the container 1 and provides a stop to prevent the lifting element 20 from being completely removed from the container 1. . This will allow the lifting element 20 to be used again&apos;, i.e., after the first smoking article 17 has been withdrawn, the lifting element 20 can be lowered again along with the remaining elevated smoking articles. In another extraction operation, the other smoking article 17 can be lifted by using the lifting member 20. Preferably, the second flap 29 will engage the lower edge ' of the inner frame 15 in the raised position and the lifting element 20 is flush with the upper edge of the inner frame 15. According to the present invention, the features of the second embodiment shown in Fig. 4 can be combined with the third embodiment shown in Fig. 5. Therefore, the lifting element 20 including at least the cymbal 22 and the first cymbal 29 is fixed to the pull tab -23 - 201109248 19 by the fixing means 28. In order to achieve this combination, the securing means 28 is preferably selected such that when a predetermined maximum tensile force on the pull tab 19 is exceeded, the pull tab 19 can be separated from the lifting element 20 and thus by only one operation, i.e., pulling The tab 19, the container 1 will be formed in the form shown in Fig. 5, in which the tab 19 has been separated from the lifting member 20. Figure 6 shows a fourth embodiment of the present invention in which the lifting member 20 (which is an inlay) is disposed between the two rows of articles 17, and is positioned in the bundle to be contained in the liner 18. Inside the smoke. When the lid 3 of the container 1 is opened, the tab 19 can be removed and the consumer can thus access one of the handles 31 of the lifting element 20. Next, the consumer lifts the handle 31 and thus the flap 22 of the lifting element 20 can engage the smoking article 17, particularly the edge 24 of the filter paper 23. The smoking articles 1 7 are then lifted up until the lifting elements 20 are removed from the casing 2. Therefore, the second row of smoking articles 17 of the casing 2 will be easily removed by the consumer. In the embodiment of Fig. 6, the handle 31 can also be secured to the tab 19 of the liner 18 by a means of attachment, such as gluing. By pulling the pull tab 19 and removing it, the lifting element 20 will be lifted up and engaged with the smoking article 17 to achieve the aforementioned function. Thus, with a separate operation, the pull tab 19 can be removed and the second row of smoking articles 17 can be lifted so that the consumer can obtain the smoking article in a convenient manner. Figure 7 shows a fifth embodiment of the present application in which the lifting element 20 is a hook strip 33 which is attached to the inside of the inner liner 18, especially in the region of the pull tab 19. This hook band 33 is attached to the material forming the inner liner 18 (including the sheet - 19 - ^ 201109248 sheet 19). The inner liner 18 is cut into a desired shape to wrap the tobacco products and provide a pull tab 19. The hook strip 3 3 includes a flap 22 which is preferably folded prior to the material of the liner 18 being cut. When the lid 3 of the container 1 is opened, the tab 19 will be removed. During removal of the tab 19, the lifting element 20 in the shape of a hook strip 33 will engage the edge 24 of the filter paper 23 of the smoking article 17. This hook band lifts the smoking article 17 until the pull tab 19 is completely removed together with the hook tape 33. Therefore, at least one smoking article 17 can be easily taken out. Figures 8 through 14 show a plurality of embodiments of lifting elements implemented in accordance with the present invention and in the form of an insert. Fig. 8 shows the lifting member 20 which can be applied to the first and second embodiments shown in Figs. 1 to 4. The lifting element 20 includes a flap 22 that extends at least partially along a lower edge of the lifting element 20. The lifting element 20 is a two-dimensional blank and includes a crease 26 that can be partially provided with perforations so as to be foldable therewith. Before the lifting member 20 is inserted into the container 1, the crotch panel 22 is folded in the upward direction along the fold 26. Therefore, the lifting element 20 shown in Fig. 8 is suitable for lifting the middle three cigarettes 17 in the first row of cigarettes 17 and the two left cigarettes 17 and the two right cigarettes 17 will not Was raised. In order to lift the articles 17 asymmetrically, a blank as shown in Fig. 9 is used to form the lifting member 20. The lifting element 20 includes a crotch panel 22 having a crease 26 and all opening portions 32 at the lower side. The crotch panel 22 can be folded in the direction of the meat to, for example, engage the three smoking articles 17 located on the left side of the first row of smoking articles 17 in the container 1. -25 - 201109248 Figure 10 shows a blank of the lifting element 20 having a lifting element flap 22 along the full width of the element 20. Thus, the lifting element 20 is adapted to engage all of the smoking articles 17 located in the preceding column of the container 1. Figure 11 shows the blank of the lifting element 20 which provides a plurality of cymbals 22 at the same height. Therefore, if the lifting member 20 is used to hold and lift the smoking article 17, the intermediate articles 17 in the first row of articles 17 of the container 1 will be lifted higher than the middle. The smoking article 1 7 is adjacent to the product 1 7 . The cymbals 22 are all folded in one direction so that the cymbals can extend in a direction toward the smoking article 17. Fig. 12 shows a blank which is applied to the lifting member 20 in the third embodiment shown in Fig. 5. The lifting element 20 includes a flap 22' which is folded toward a smoking article 17 along a crease 26 to enable engagement. Furthermore, the lifting element 20 comprises a second flap 29 which is folded in a lower position and towards the container 1 along a second fold 30 so that after the lifting member 20 is lifted to a certain height Close the container. Fig. 13 shows a blank which can be utilized for the lifting member 20 of the fourth embodiment shown in Fig. 6. The lifting element 20 includes a cymbal 22 defined by a plurality of nicks 26 and a plurality of incisions 32. The crotch panel 22 can be folded toward the article 17 to engage the smoking article at an outer upper end. Further, the lifting member includes a handle portion 31 which is disposed at an upper end of the lifting member 20 and is fixed to the pull tab 19 or utilized to easily grasp the lifting member 20 to lift it up. Figure 14 shows a billet of element 20 implemented in accordance with another embodiment of the present invention. The blank comprises a crease 26 and a cut-away portion 32 extending from the -26-201109248 crease 26 in the side of the billet in the interior of the billet. Therefore, when the blank is folded along the fold 26, the flap 22 will be bent out of the upper portion of the blank and thus protruded in the direction of the tobacco 17 to engage the smoking article 17. The blank is folded along the fold 26 so that the lower portion of the blank contacts the upper portion of the blank to form the lifting member 20. Alternatively, the crease 26 does not extend across the overall width of the lifting element 20, but only extends across the haptics 22. In one embodiment, when the container 1 is inserted, the crease 26 is positioned below the cymbal 22. The cymbal 22 is then slightly pre-folded toward the stencil so that the splicing edge of the cymbal 22 leaves the Raise the plane of the component body. In an alternate embodiment, the crease 26 is positioned above the crotch panel 22 when inserted into the container 1. In this embodiment, the gusset is pre-folded by more than 90 degrees to bring the front end of the gusset 22 up when the container is in the container. Fig. 15 shows a lining 18 used in a fifth embodiment of the present invention. This inner liner wraps the perforations 2 1 so that the tabs 9 can be easily removed. Additionally, the lifting element 20 in the form of a saturating strip 33 is applied to the inner liner during manufacture of the inner liner 18 such that the lifting element 20 can extend through the tab 19 region. In particular, the lifting element 20 in the form of a hook strip 33 is folded and attached to the inside of the inner liner 18. Therefore, when the inner liner 18 is wrapped around a bundle of tobacco articles 17 and placed in a container 1, a shape as shown in Fig. 7 can be obtained. When the hook strip 33 is added during the manufacture of the liner 18, it will only be necessary to perform minor modifications in a conventional manufacturing process. Therefore, the manufacturing cost of this container can be maintained at a low state. The lifting element 20 is preferably constructed of a material that includes sufficient strength to allow the crotch panel 22 to properly engage the smoking article 17. Thus, for example, paper, paperboard and polymeric materials can be utilized. -27-S. 201109248 Furthermore, the features of the above-described lifting element 20 can be combined, for example, a handle 31 can be provided on the aforementioned lifting elements 20. The second crotch panel 29 can be disposed at any position along the width of the lifting member 20. Moreover, the lifting element 20 can have a relatively large height so that the upper portion 27 can be easily accessed by the consumer. The height of the lifting element 20 is limited only by the upper edge of the casing 2 of the container 1. The height of the plaques is preferably from 3 to 4 mm. The creases of the ridges are preferably transverse. Figure 16 shows a further embodiment of a lifting element 20 implemented in accordance with the present invention which simultaneously interacts with the upper end of the outer side of a smoking article 17 at two locations. The lifting element 20 has two projections 22 which assist in increasing the friction between the upper end of the outer side of the tobacco article 17 and the lifting element 20. For example, the lifting element 20 is a cover member of a hinged lid container, such as a dust mites sheet. In use, the lifting element 20 as shown in Fig. 16 can be easily separated from the billet, e.g., by tearing along a line of weakness similar to the perforation line. Then, the cut-out portion of the lifting member 20 is placed at the both sides above the upper end of the outer side of the smoking article 1 so that the cut-out portion can be regarded as a pair of dice. The two projections 22 create sufficient friction between the lifting element 20 and the smoking article 17 to lift the smoking article 17 when the lifting member is pulled up. Alternatively, in order to be part of the container blank, an insert may be provided as the lifting element 20, which provides a cut-out, and a smoking article is thereby passed over the outer side of the outer side of the smoking article 7 The two sides of the cigarette are attached to the cigarette and are lifted. -28- 201109248 BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS Fig. 1 is a cross-sectional view of a container according to a first embodiment, in which the lid of the container is closed.
