The present invention has been made in view of the above problems, and an object thereof is to provide a technique relating to a hinged lid type case in which a hinge cover can be opened with one hand.

In order to solve the above problems, the hinge lid type cartridge of the present invention employs the following technical means. That is, the present invention is a hinge cover type cartridge which is provided with an outer casing having an open end and capable of accommodating articles therein; a cover that is hingedly connected (hereinafter also referred to as "hinge connection") to open and close the open end at the rear end of the open end; and an inner frame having a front frame and a side frame along the outer casing Provided on the front wall, the side frame is disposed along the side wall of the outer casing and connected to the front frame, and the inner frame is disposed on the upper end side of the front frame and the side frame from the open end The outer casing is configured to guide opening and closing of the hinge cover; wherein the inner frame has an inclined edge portion formed on an exposed portion of an edge portion constituting a boundary between the front frame and the side frame, and corresponds to a configuration The front rim portion at the boundary between the side wall on the outer casing side and the front wall is inclined toward the inner side in the width direction of the outer casing and extends obliquely upward.

In the hinged lid type case of the present invention, the inclined edge portion of the inner frame is inclined toward the inner side in the width direction of the outer casing and extends upward. In this manner, the operator, for example, a consumer who purchases the hinged lid type case, performs the twisting operation of the torsion outer box with one hand when the hinged lid in the closed state is opened. Thus, as the outer casing is twisted and deformed, the inclined edge portion of the inner frame rises toward the out-of-plane direction of the front wall of the outer casing, and the posture of the inclined edge portion is tilted toward the front of the outer casing.

By the tilting operation of the inclined edge portion of the inner frame, since the front end of the inclined edge portion abuts against the inner surface edge portion of the hinge cover, the hinge cover is pushed up and tilted toward the front of the outer casing, thereby connecting the hinge portion. Open the hinge cover for the center. In other words, according to the hinge cover type cartridge of the present invention, the operator can easily open the hinge cover by twisting the torsion outer case with one hand.

Further, in the hinge cover type case, the side wall of the outer case which is connected to the side frame of the front frame along the inclined edge portion may be used as the width direction from the front wall toward the outer case Tilting outside An extended inclined side wall and joining the front wall and the front wall.

In this manner, the side wall of the outer box corresponding to the inclined edge portion of the inner frame is used as the inclined side wall, so that the operator twists the outer box, and the posture of the inclined edge portion of the inner frame is easily changed to a posture that is tilted toward the front of the outer casing. Further, since the shape of the outer casing is changed to the shape of the outer casing, the amount of twist can be easily ensured. Thereby, it is possible to increase the degree of tilting when the inclined edge portion of the inner frame is tilted toward the front of the outer casing, and to further open the hinge cover more easily.

Further, in the hinge cover type case, the cross-sectional shape of the hinge cover and the outer case may be a parallelogram. According to this, when the operator is caused to twist the outer casing, the amount of twist is more easily ensured. As a result, it is possible to increase the degree of tilting of the inclined edge portion of the inner frame, and it is possible to more easily open the hinge cover with one hand.

Further, in the hinged lid type case, a slit may be formed at an end portion of the end portion of the hinged connection portion between the outer casing and the hinge cover to which the inclined edge portion is provided at least in front. Thereby, when the outer casing is twisted, the portion provided with the slit is further deformed more easily. As a result, the degree of tilting of the inclined edge portion of the inner frame can be increased, so that the hinge cover can be easily opened.

Further, the inner frame may be connected to the upper end portion of the side frame of the front frame by the inclined edge portion, and may be extended upward to a position higher than the upper end of the inclined edge portion. Thereby, after the abutting state of the inclined edge portion with respect to the inner surface of the hinge cover is released, the upper end portion of the side frame is also held in contact with the inner side of the side wall of the hinge cover. Further, when the upper end portion of the side frame elastically deformed by the twisting action is released, the side wall of the hinge cover is bounced and jumped to obtain the driving force for opening the hinge cover. Therefore, more It is further easy to open the hinge cover.

In addition, the object to be accommodated in the hinged lid type case is not particularly limited, and a tobacco (Tobacco) product may be appropriately exemplified as the object to be stored. As the tobacco product, for example, paper roll tobacco (filter cigarette, filterless cigarette), cigar, electronic cigarette, chewing tobacco, snuff, and the like can be exemplified. Further, the hinge cover type case may be, for example, a box type package for accommodating candy or chewing gum or the like.

By adopting the above configuration, the consumer can increase the amount of twist of the outer casing 2 when the outer casing 2 is twisted, so that the inclined edge portion 44A of the inner frame 4 can be further increased to the front side (front) of the outer casing 2 The degree of dumping. Therefore, the hinge cover 3 is further opened more easily by the twisting operation of the outer casing 2.

Further, the front wall 31 of the hinge cover 3 of the hinge cover type case 1 is formed by the front wall panel P14 and the front wall reinforcing panel P19 of the main blank B1 shown in Fig. 5. Here, the width of the front wall reinforcing panel P19 is narrower than that of the front wall panel P14. Therefore, when the front wall reinforcing panel P19 and the front wall panel P14 are overlapped, the vicinity of the connecting portion of the front wall 31 of the hinge cover 3 and the right side wall 33 is formed to have a thinner thickness than the other portions. Thus, in the front wall 31 of the hinge cover 3, the thickness in the vicinity of the connection portion with the right side wall 33 is made thinner than other portions, and A groove is formed on the back surface of the right front cover edge portion 36. Since the groove is formed along the inclined edge portion 44A of the inner frame 4, the front end (vertex) portion of the inclined edge portion 44A functions as a guiding function when sliding or sliding on the back surface of the right front cover edge portion 36. Thereby, the hinge cover 3 can be opened more appropriately.

Then, the inclination angle of the inclined edge portion 44A of the inner frame 4 with respect to the right front bezel portion 26 (hereinafter referred to as "inclined edge portion angle") Φ and the length of the inclined edge portion 44A (hereinafter, referred to as "inclined edge" The combination of the length of the part ") L is explained. Fig. 9 is an explanatory view for explaining a method of setting the inclined edge portion angle Φ and the inclined edge portion length L of the inner frame 4, specifically, the right side view of the hinge lid type cartridge 1. The L3 of Fig. 9 shows the locus of the position at which the lower end portion of the front wall 31 passes when the hinge cover 3 is opened. As a result of intensive research, the inventors have found that when the inclined edge portion angle Φ and the inclined edge portion length L are set in the following order, the hinge cover 3 can be opened more easily when the outer casing 2 is twisted.

The first reference line LB1, the second reference line LB2, and the third reference line LB3 in the drawing are reference lines for setting the inclined edge portion angle Φ and the inclined edge portion length L, respectively. Each of the reference lines is obtained by connecting the reference point on the trajectory L3 with the lower end portion of the front wall 31 when the hinge cover 3 is closed. Here, when the length of each of the reference lines LB1, LB2, LB3 is used as the length of the inclined edge portion, it is preferable to use the reference lines LB1, LB2, LB3 and the front wall 21 of the outer casing 2 (the right front bezel portion 26). The angle of formation is the angle Φ of the inclined edge portion corresponding to the length L of each inclined edge portion. According to this setting method, the smaller the inclined edge portion angle Φ, the shorter the length L of the inclined edge portion, and the larger the angle Φ of the inclined edge portion, the longer the length L of the inclined edge portion needs to be lengthened. Set the tilting edge The combination of the portion angle Φ and the inclined edge portion length L enables the hinge cover 3 to be properly opened when the outer casing 2 is twisted.

Here, each reference point on the trajectory L3 and the hinge 5 are connected to each other according to the line segment. The combination of the inclined edge portion angle Φ determined by the second reference line LB2 obtained when the line segment obtained as described above is formed substantially horizontally and the inclined edge portion length L, and the inclined edge determined according to the other reference lines LB1, LB3 Comparing the combination of the angle Φ of the portion with the length L of the inclined edge portion, it is found that the cover opening of the hinge cover 3 is optimal. Here, the angle Φ of the inclined edge portion corresponding to the second reference line LB2 is 164°. According to the results of intensive studies by the present inventors, it has been found that from the viewpoint of the cover opening property of the hinge cover 3 during the twisting operation of the outer casing 2, it is preferable to set the inclined edge portion angle Φ to about 164 ± 10°, and The above method sets the length L of the inclined edge portion corresponding thereto.
