Description

Hinged lid packaging

The present invention relates to hinged lid packaging.

In the past, packaging (packaging) of articles to be stored such as cigarettes and the like is known as a soft pack type package or a hard box type package. One of the forms of the hard-box type package is a hinged lid package (also referred to as a hinged lid case) having a lid (cover). Such a hinge cover package usually has a box-shaped outer shape, and the accommodating portion for accommodating the tobacco rod and the lid for opening and closing the open end formed at the upper portion of the accommodating portion are rotatably provided via a hinge provided along an edge portion of the open end Ground connection.

The previous hinged lid packaging has the problem that the lid (cover) cannot be reliably closed. In order to solve such problems, several types of hinged lid packages have been proposed. For example, Patent Document 1 discloses a technique in which a package (box type) is formed by a first portion and a second portion, and the first portion and the second portion are relatively slid. Further, Patent Document 2 discloses a technique of providing a flap for fixing a lid to a lid of a hinge lid package.

Patent Document 2: Japanese Patent Publication No. 2002-537190

Patent Document 3: Japanese Patent Publication No. 2002-531349

Conventional hinged lid packaging has the problem that the lid cannot be reliably closed. To solve this problem, although there are several types of hinged lid packaging, it is still insufficient. On the other hand, for hinged lid packaging, there is a need to further enlarge the printing space of the surface of the package (box).

The present invention has been made in view of the above problems, and an object of the present invention is to provide a hinged lid package which can reliably close a lid of a hinge lid package and can secure more printing space.

In order to solve the above problems, the present invention provides a cover portion for covering the hinge cover package so as to cover at least one of the front wall side and the rear wall side of the package main body so as to cover the accommodating portion and the cover portion (cover). The sliding cover of the rotation.

More specifically, the present invention provides a hinged lid package comprising a package body, the package body comprising: a substantially rectangular parallelepiped housing portion having an open end at an upper portion and receiving the object therein; and a rear side opening edge rotatably coupled to the open end, and opening and closing the cover portion of the open end; the hinge cover package is provided with at least one of a front wall side and a rear wall side of the package body, and The cover that covers the cover portion is covered so as to cover the cover portion and the cover portion.

The hinge lid package of the present invention covers the outer cover so as to cover the cover portion and the cover portion, and the rotation of the cover portion can be restricted in a state where the cover portion is closed. Therefore, the lid of the hinge lid package can be closed more reliably. In addition, the cover can be printed in addition to the accommodating portion and the cover portion. This ensures more printing space than ever before and increases the appeal to consumers. On the surface of the package of the present invention, embossing, thickening of the lacquer to form irregularities or application by electrostatic flocking treatment can be applied to further enhance the attractiveness.

Here, the hinged lid package of the present invention may be configured to include a linear engaging portion that straddles the accommodating portion and the lid portion, and the outer cover has an engaged portion that engages with the engaging portion.

In the hinge lid package of the present invention, the rotation of the lid portion can be restricted by engaging the linear engaging portion and the engaged portion. That is, the linear engaging portion spans the accommodating portion and the lid portion. In other words, the linear engaging portion is provided to cover both the housing portion and the lid portion. Therefore, by engaging the engaged portion with the linear engaging portion, the package body and the cover can be allowed to only allow relative sliding movement in the axial direction of the engaging portion. As a result, the rotation of the cover can be restricted.

Further, the outer cover may be configured to be slidable relative to the package body. By being configured to be slidable, the cover can be rotated without removing the cover from the package body. For example, the outer cover is slid toward the accommodating portion side or the lid portion side to release the state in which the outer cover covers the accommodating portion and the lid portion, and the state in which the lid portion is rotated is released. As a result, the cover can be rotated. The outer cover may also be configured to be detachable from the package body.

In addition, the hinge cover package of the present invention may be further configured to: when the cover is slid toward the cover portion side, the cover is coupled to the cover portion a joint portion; the outer cover is coupled to the cover portion, and the outer cover rotates together with the cover portion. The present invention is one in which the outer cover is placed on the front wall side of the hinged lid package. The cover can be rotated together with the cover by providing the hinge cover with a joint.

Further, the hinge cover package of the present invention may be configured to include a guide portion for guiding the combination of the cover and the cover portion. Thereby, the combination of the cover and the cover can be performed more smoothly.

The object to be accommodated in the accommodating portion of the hinged lid package is not particularly limited, and an aggregate of the rod-shaped articles, for example, a cigarette product, can be exemplified as the object to be stored. That is, the contained article of the present invention may also be a cigarette product. Examples of the cigarette product include cigarettes (filter cigarettes, filterless cigarettes (no filter)), cigars (rolled leaves), cigarettes, cigarettes, snuff, chewing tobacco, electronic cigarettes, and the like.

The means for solving the problems of the present invention can be used in combination as much as possible.

According to the present invention, the lid of the hinge lid package can be more reliably closed, and more printing space can be secured.

When the cigarette contained in the package 101 is taken out, the rotation of the cover 3 formed by the outer package 7 is released by applying a force to the front side (upper in FIG. 5A) of the package body 2 (refer to FIG. 5B). ). Specifically, when a force to the front is applied to the package body 2, the package body 2 gradually moves forward, thereby restricting the upper and lower directions of the package body 2 by the upper wall 72 and the lower wall 71 of the outer package 7. The power of movement is gradually weakening. Then, when the force applied to the package body 2 to the front exceeds the force of moving the upper and lower sides of the package body 2 by the upper wall 72 and the lower wall 71 of the outer package 7, the cover 3 will be the first hinge 6 The shaft rotates. Here, the rear side of the upper wall 32 of the lid 3 is adhered to the region 722 on the rear side of the upper wall 72 of the outer package 7, but the front side of the upper wall 32 of the lid 3 is not adhered. Therefore, when the cover 3 is rotated about the first hinge 6, the boundary between the region 722 on the side after the upper wall 72 of the outer package 7 (the boundary between the region 722 on the front side and the region 721 on the rear side) is present. The second hinge 61 is a shaft and allows the rotation of the cover 3. Further, the front side of the lower wall 26 of the outer casing 21 is adhered to the region 712 on the front side of the lower wall 71 of the outer casing 7, but the rear side of the lower wall 26 of the outer casing 21 is not adhered. Therefore, when the cover 3 is rotated about the first hinge 6, the third hinge 62 existing at the boundary between the region 712 on the front side and the region 711 on the rear side is used as an axis to allow the outer casing 21 to rotate. Result, make The package body 2 that is in contact with the outer package 7 is separated from the outer package 7, and the restriction of the movement in the up-down direction when opening the cover 3 restricted by the upper wall 72 and the lower wall 71 of the outer package 7 is released. Thereby, the cover 3 can be opened and closed.

(effect)

In the package 101 of the first embodiment, the outer package 7 covers the rear side of the package 101, and a plurality of side walls 73, 73, an upper wall 72, and a lower wall 71 of the outer package 7 cover the periphery of the package body 2. In particular, the upper wall 72 and the lower wall 71 of the outer package 7 restrict the movement in the up and down direction when the cover 3 is opened. Therefore, the rotation of the cover 3 can be restricted, and the cover 3 of the package 101 can be more reliably closed. Further, since the depth of the outer package 7 is about one-half of the depth of the package body 2 and the cover 3, when an external force is applied, the upper wall 72 and the lower wall 71 of the outer package 7 can be released more easily than in the past. The limitation of the movement of the upper and lower directions required for the cover 3 is limited. That is, the lid body can be improved in tightness and the lid portion can be opened and closed with a smaller external force than before.

<Second embodiment>

(constitution)

Fig. 6 is a perspective view showing a state in which the lid 3 of the hinge lid package 102 is closed in the second embodiment. 7A and 7B are perspective views showing a state in which the lid 3 of the package 102 is opened. Figure 8 is an exploded perspective view showing the package 102. The package 102 of the second embodiment differs from the first embodiment in the connection structure between the outer package 7a and the package body 2. The same components as those of the package 101 of the first embodiment are denoted by the same reference numerals and will not be described.

The package 102 of the second embodiment is the same as the first embodiment. The upper wall 72 of the package 7a includes a region 722 on the front side and a region 721 on the rear side. However, in the package 102 of the second embodiment, the front side region 722 is not folded inward, and is connected to the region on the front side of the upper wall 32 of the lid 3. Similarly to the first embodiment, the boundary between the front side region 722 and the rear side region 721 functions as the second hinge 61 when the cover 3 is opened.

Further, in the package 102 of the second embodiment, the lower wall 71a of the outer package 7a includes a front side region 712a and a rear side region 711a, and the depths of the respective regions 711a and 712a are designed to be about the depth of the package body 2, respectively. Half. Further, the lower wall 71a of the outer package 7a is formed with a notch 714 at the boundary between the front side region 712a and the rear side region 711a. The notch 714 extends linearly from the center to the front side of both side edges, and an U-shaped notch having an inverted U shape is provided at both ends of the notch 714. In other words, the small flaps 713 projecting toward the front side are provided at both end portions of the edge on the front side of the rear side region 711a. Further, the front side region 712a and the inner surface on the inner side of the small flap 713 are adhesive regions which are adhered to the front side of the outer surface of the lower wall 26 of the outer package 21.

In the package 102 of the second embodiment, since the notch 714 and the small flap 713 are provided, the lower wall 71a of the outer package 7a can be elastically deformed. In other words, the lower wall 71a of the outer package 7a can have an elastic function. Specifically, the boundary between the front side region 712 and the rear side region 711 is formed as a linear crease, and functions as a hinge, and all the inner surface of the front side region 712 is adhered to the outer package. Compared with the first embodiment of the front side of the lower wall 26 of the casing 21, the upper side of the package body 2 can be increased. The amount of movement. As a result, the opening degree of the cover 3 can be increased.

(Raw material)

Fig. 9A, Fig. 9B, and Fig. 9C show the respective materials of the second embodiment. The first raw material B1 (refer to FIG. 9A) and the second raw material B2 (refer to FIG. 9B) are the same as those of the first embodiment. The fourth material B4' (see Fig. 9C) of the second embodiment is different from the first embodiment in that the lower wall plate P22' is provided with the notch 714 and the small flap 713.

(opening and closing action)

Next, the opening and closing operation of the lid 3 of the package 102 of the second embodiment will be described. 10A, 10B, and 10C are side views showing the operation of the hinge lid package of the second embodiment.

The package 102 is placed on the rear side of the package 102 in a state where the lid 3 is closed, and the outer package 7a is brought into contact with the package 102, and the outer package 7a is covered on the rear side of the package body 2 (refer to Fig. 10A). The state in which the lid 3 is closed is the same as that in the first embodiment, and the outer package 7a covers the rear side of the package body 2, and covers a plurality of side walls 73, 73, an upper wall 72, and a lower wall 71a of the outer package 7a to cover the package body 2. around. In particular, the upper wall 72 and the lower wall 71a of the outer package 7a restrict the movement in the up-down direction when the cover 3 is opened. Therefore, in the package 102 of the second embodiment, the opening and closing of the lid 3 is restricted.

When the cigarette contained in the package 102 is taken out, the force of the cover 3 formed by the outer package 7a is released by applying a force to the front side (upward in FIG. 10A) of the package body 2 (refer to section 10B). Figure). The state shown in FIG. 10B is basically the same as that of the first embodiment, when the package body is When the external force is applied to the front, the package body 2 gradually moves forward, and the force for restricting the movement of the package body 2 in the up-and-down direction by the upper wall 72 and the lower wall 71a of the outer package 7a is gradually weakened. Then, when the force applied to the package body 2 to the front exceeds the force of moving the upper and lower sides of the package body 2 by the upper wall 72 and the lower wall 71a of the outer package 7a, the cover 3 will be the first hinge 6 The shaft rotates. Here, the front side of the upper wall 32 of the lid 3 is adhered to the region 722 on the front side of the upper wall 72 of the outer package 7a, but the rear side region 721 of the upper wall 32 of the lid 3 is not adhered. Therefore, when the lid 3 is rotated about the first hinge 6, the second hinge 61 existing at the boundary between the region 722 on the front side and the region 721 on the rear side is the axis, and the rotation of the lid 3 is allowed. Further, the front side of the lower wall 26 of the outer casing 21 and the inner side of the small flap 713 are adhered to the region 712a on the front side of the lower wall 71a of the outer package 7a, but the outer side of the small flap 713 and The rear side of the lower wall 26 of the outer package 21 is not adhered. Therefore, the lower wall 26 of the outer package 21 is elastically deformed. Specifically, when the cover 3 is rotated about the first hinge 6, the boundary between the front side region 712a and the rear side region 711a functions as a hinge 62 and is located outside the small flap 713. The connection portion between the region 712a on the front side of the lower wall 71 of the 7a and the region 711a on the rear side is deflected, and the lower wall 71a of the outer package 7a is elastically deformed. Thereby, the boundary between the front side region 712 and the rear side region 711 is formed as a linear fold, and the entire inner surface of the front side region 712 is adhered to the lower wall 26 of the outer casing 21. In comparison with the first embodiment on the front side, the amount of movement of the package body 2 and the lid 3 to the upper side can be increased (refer to Fig. 10C). As a result, the opening degree of the cover 3 can be increased.

(effect)

In the package 102 of the second embodiment, the outer package 7a covers the rear side of the package 102, and covers a plurality of side walls 73, 73, an upper wall 72, and a lower wall 71a of the outer package 7a to cover the periphery of the package body 2. In particular, the upper wall 72 and the lower wall 71a of the outer package 7a restrict the movement in the up-down direction when the cover 3 is opened. Therefore, the rotation of the cover 3 can be restricted, and the cover 3 of the package 102 can be closed more surely. Further, since the depth of the outer package 7a is about one-half of the depth of the package body 2, when an external force is applied, it can be more easily released from the upper limit by the upper wall 72 and the lower wall 71a of the outer package 7a when the external force is applied. The limit of the action of the upper and lower directions required for the cover 3 is required. That is, the lid body can be improved in tightness, and the lid portion can be opened and closed with a smaller external force than before. Further, since the lower wall 71a of the outer package 7a is elastically deformed, the boundary between the front side region 712 and the rear side region 711 is formed as a linear crease, and the inner surface of the front side region 712 is formed. The amount of movement of the package body 2 to the upper side can be increased as compared with the first embodiment in which all of the front side of the lower wall 26 of the outer casing 21 is adhered. As a result, the opening degree of the cover 3 can be increased.

In addition, in the description of a raw material, it demonstrates on the up-and-down direction of a figure.

As shown in Fig. 15A, the first raw material B1' of the third embodiment is viewed from the point that a plurality of flaps 5 are provided on both side edges of the front wall flat panel P1 and the front wall flat panel P11. The form is different from the first material B1 of the second embodiment. In addition, on the upper wall plate P8, on the front wall 33 of the cover 3a A central portion of the upper edge of the front wall panel P11 is provided with an elongated coupling hole 35 along the edge. In the first material B1 of the first embodiment and the second embodiment, the front wall reinforcing plate P11-1 is connected to the upper edge of the P11-1, but the first material B1' of the third embodiment is It is a simple structure that does not have the front wall reinforcing plate P11-1. As shown in Fig. 15B, the second material B2 of the third embodiment is the same as the second material B2 of the first embodiment and the second embodiment.

As shown in Fig. 15C, the third material B3 has a front wall panel P15 which serves as the front wall 41 of the outer cover 4, and a tongue flat plate P16 which serves as the tongue portion 45 of the outer cover 4 is coupled to the lower edge of the front wall panel P15. The upper edge of the front wall panel P15 is connected to an upper panel P20 which is an upper wall 41 of the outer cover 4. The tongue flat plate P16 has a rectangular shape, and a small tongue portion 46 is provided at the lower edge portion. Further, on the both side edges of the front wall panel P15, side wall outer panels P17 and P17 which are outer walls of the side wall 42 of the outer cover 4, and side wall inner panels P18 and P18 which are inner walls of the side wall 42 of the outer cover 4 are sequentially connected. The inner top flaps P19 are joined to the upper edges of the side panels P18 and P18, and the inner top flaps P19 are overlapped and adhered to the upper wall flat plate P20 to reinforce the upper wall 41.

The first raw material B1', the second raw material B2, and the third raw material B3 are respectively folded in a folding line indicated by a broken line in Figs. 15A, 15B, and 15C. As a result, the package body 2a including the outer casing 21a and the lid 3a and the outer cover 4 as shown in Figs. 11 to 14 are formed, respectively. In the outer casing region R1 of the first raw material B1', the folding portion P6 is folded over by the folding line, the inner bottom flap P6 is superposed on the lower wall flat plate P3, and the inner folded piece P5 is adhered to the side wall flat plate P2.

The width of the flat plate P18 in the side wall is formed to be shorter than the width of the side outer plate P17, and the step 44 shown in Figs. 13 and 14B is formed by folding the side wall inner panel P18. The tongue plate P16 is only folded back toward the front wall panel P15 side and is not adhered. The outer cover 4 is formed by the above method.

(opening and closing action)

Next, the opening and closing operation of the lid 3 of the package 103 will be described. The actions described below are performed by the user applying an appropriate external force. Fig. 16A, Fig. 16B, and Fig. 16C are perspective views showing the operation of the package 103, and Figs. 17A, 17B, and 17C are sectional views for explaining the operation of the package 103, and are closed. The state of the cover 3a causes the outer cover 4 to slide. Figs. 17D and 17E are cross-sectional views for explaining the operation of the package 103, and the cover 3a is rotated together with the cover 4 after the cover 4 is slid.

The package 103 is in a state in which the lid 3a is closed, and the outer cover 4 is located at a position on the front side of the cover pack 103 (refer to Figs. 16A and 17A). When it is not necessary to take out the cigarettes contained in the package 103 (for example, in the transportation of the incense When the package of cigarettes is 103, etc., the package 103 is usually in the state of Fig. 16A and Fig. 17A. In this state, the outer cover 4 covers the entire surface of the front wall 23 of the outer package 21a and the front wall 33 of the cover 3a across the front wall 23 of the outer package 21a and the front wall 33 of the cover 3a. Further, in this state, the step 44 of the outer cover 4 is engaged with all of the plurality of flaps 5 provided in the outer casing 21 and the plurality of flaps 5 provided in the lid 3a. Thereby, the opening and closing of the lid 3a is restricted.

When the cigarette accommodated in the package 103 is taken out, the outer cover 4 is slid upward along the front surface of the package 103 by applying an upward force to the outer cover 4 (refer to Fig. 17B). The outer cover 4 is slid while maintaining the state in which the step 44 of the outer cover 4 is engaged with the plurality of flaps 5 provided in the outer casing 21 and the plurality of flaps 5 provided in the lid 3a. In a state where the step 44 of the outer cover 4 is engaged with the flap 5, the outer cover 4 is restricted from moving in the width direction and the front-rear direction, and only the vertical movement is allowed. When the outer cover 4 slides upward, the flaps 5 on the lower side of the package 103 are sequentially released from the engaged state.

Further, when the outer cover 4 slides over the package 103, the small tongue portion 46 of the tongue portion 45 of the outer cover 4 is joined to the coupling hole 35 of the cover 3a (refer to Figs. 16B and 17C). Specifically, the tongue portion 45 and the small tongue portion 46 of the outer cover 4 move upward while being in contact with the front wall 23 of the outer casing 21a. The small tongue portion 46 is moved to the upper end edge of the front wall 23 of the outer casing 21a, then comes into contact with the front frame 28 of the inner frame 22 and moves upward. Here, the tongue portion 45 of the outer cover 4 reflexes toward the inner surface side of the front wall 41 of the outer cover 4, and the boundary (crease) of the front wall 41 of the outer cover 4 and the tongue portion 45 is the axis and is intended to be from the outer cover 4. The restoring force of the front wall 41 in the direction of the separation (the side of the package body 2a) is applied to the tongue portion 45 of the outer cover 4. On the other hand, the inner frame 22 The front frame 28 is located at a thickness away from the front side (back side) of the front wall 23 of the outer package 21a. Therefore, the small tongue portion 46 moves in contact with the front frame 28 of the inner frame 22 when it passes over the upper end edge of the front wall 23 of the outer package 21a. Further, the front wall 33 of the cover 3a is also the same as the front wall 23 of the outer casing 21a, and is located on the front side of the front frame 28 of the inner frame 22. Therefore, when the small tongue portion 46 comes into contact with the front frame 28 of the inner frame 22 and moves upward, the small tongue portion 46 intrudes into the lid 3a from the lower end edge of the front wall 33 of the lid 3a. The small tongue portion 46 moves further upward along the inner surface of the front wall 33 of the cover 3a. When the tongue portion 45 and the small tongue portion 46 move upward in the lid 3a, the tongue portion 45 supports the surface on the rear side of the tongue portion 45 by the front frame 28 of the inner frame 22. Further, when the cigarette is sufficiently accommodated in the package 103, the tongue portion 45 supports the rear side surface by the contained cigarette. Therefore, the rotation of the tongue portion 45 is restricted by the front frame 28 of the inner frame 22 or the cigarette, and the tongue portion 45 and the small tongue portion 46 are moved upward along the inner surface of the front wall 33 of the cover 3a. Then, the small tongue portion 46 is coupled to the coupling hole 35 provided at the upper end edge of the front wall 33 of the cover 3a. When the small tongue portion 46 is combined with the coupling hole 35, the open edge 451 of the tongue portion 45 comes into contact with the upper wall 32 of the cover 3a, and the upward movement of the outer cover 4 is restricted. The front frame 28 of the inner frame 22 is located at a position from the rear side (inside) to the thickness of the front wall 23 of the outer package 21a, and the small tongue portion 46 is guided to the coupling hole 35, which corresponds to the guide of the present invention. Leading section.

When the small tongue portion 46 is combined with the coupling hole 35, the cover 3a is rotatable, and when a force for opening the cover 3a is applied, the package 103 is in an open state. Specifically, by sliding the cover 4 to the side of the cover 3a, the cover 4 can be placed in a state in which only the cover is covered. In other words, the step 44 of the outer cover 4 and the outer box The engagement of the flaps 5 of 21a is released, and only the flaps 5 of the cover 3a are engaged. Therefore, the rotation restriction of the lid 3a is released, and the lid 3a is rotatably pivoted about the first hinge 6 (refer to Figs. 16C, 17D, and 17E). When the cover 3a is rotated, since the small tongue portion 46 of the outer cover 4 is coupled with the coupling hole 35 of the cover 3a, the cover 3a is rotated together with the outer cover 4. By opening the lid 3a, the cigarettes contained in the package 103 can be taken out. The degree of opening of the lid 3a can be appropriately changed in accordance with the number of cigarettes accommodated in the package 103. As shown in Fig. 17E, the package 103 of the third embodiment can be formed in an inverted V shape in the open state of the package 103. Therefore, in a state where the package 103 is tilted only rearward from the vertical body, it can be placed on a flat surface (for example, on a table or on a shelf). Further, in a state where the cover 3a is opened, the cover 4 can be separated from the cover 3a by moving the cover 4 downward (in the direction of the lower end edge of the front wall 33 of the cover 3a).

When the cover 3a is switched from the open state to the closed state, the opposite operation to the above-described turning operation is performed. Specifically, when a force for applying the cover 3a to the closed state is applied, the cover 3a is rotated together with the cover 4 to be in a closed state. When an external force is applied to the outer cover 4 in a state where the cover 3a is closed, the cover 3a slides downward and only engages with the flap 5 of the cover 3a, and the step 44 of the cover 4 gradually becomes the outer package 21a. The flaps 5 are snapped together. When the lower end edge of the outer cover 4 slides to a position coincident with the lower end edge of the front wall 23 of the outer casing 21a, the inner surface of the upper wall 43 of the outer cover 4 comes into contact with the upper wall 32 of the cover 3a, and the outer cover 4 is restricted downward. slide. The cover 4 is in a state of covering all of the front side of the package 103. As a result, the opening and closing of the lid 3a is restricted.

When the cigarette accommodated in the package 104 is taken out, an external force is applied to the outer cover 4, and the outer cover 4a is slid upward along the front surface of the package 104 (refer to Fig. 20B). Further, when the outer cover 4a slides over the package 104, the small tongue portion 46a of the tongue portion 45a of the outer cover 4a is joined to the coupling hole 35 of the cover 3b (refer to Fig. 20C). Specifically, the tongue portion 45a and the small tongue portion 46a of the outer cover 4a move upward while being in contact with the front wall 23 of the outer casing 21b. The small tongue portion 46a is moved to the upper end edge of the front wall 23 of the outer package 21b, and then passes through the opening portion 36b to be in contact with the support plate 36a and moved upward. Here, similarly to the tongue portion 45 of the third embodiment, the restoring force acts on the tongue portion 45a of the outer cover 4a. On the other hand, the support plate 36a is located at a thickness from the rear side (inside) up to the front wall 23 of the outer package 21b. Therefore, the small tongue portion 46a moves through the opening portion 36b while being supported by the support plate 36a. The rotation of the tongue portion 45a is restricted by the support plate 36a, and the tongue portion 45a and the small tongue portion 46a are moved upward along the inner surface of the front wall 33a of the cover 3b. Then, the small tongue portion 46a is combined with the coupling hole 35 provided at the upper end edge of the front wall 33a of the cover 3b. When the small tongue portion 46a is combined with the coupling hole 35, the open edge 451a of the tongue portion 45a comes into contact with the upper wall 32 of the cover 3b, and restricts the upward movement of the outer cover 4a.

Further, the fourth material B4' is the same as that of the second embodiment.

(opening and closing action)

Next, the opening and closing operation of the lid 3a of the package 105 of the fifth embodiment will be described. 25A, 25B, 25C, and 25D are cross-sectional views for explaining the operation of the hinge lid package of the fifth embodiment. The operation of the outer cover 4b is basically the same as that of the third embodiment, and the operation of the outer package 7a is basically the same as that of the second embodiment.

The package 105 is in a state in which the lid 3a is closed, the outer cover 4b covers the entire front side of the package 105, and the outer package 7a covers the rear side of the package 105 (refer to Fig. 25A). When it is not necessary to take out the cigarettes contained in the package 105, the package 105 is usually in the state of Fig. 25A. In this state, the outer cover 4b covers the entire surface of the front wall 23 of the outer package 21a and the front wall 33 of the cover 3a across the front wall 23 of the outer package 21a and the front wall 33 of the cover 3a. Further, in this state, the step 44 of the outer cover 4b is engaged with the plurality of flaps 5 provided in the outer casing 21a and all of the plurality of flaps 5 provided on the lid 3a. Thereby, the opening and closing of the lid 3a is restricted. Furthermore, in the fifth embodiment, outsourcing The package 7a covers the rear side of the package 105, and a set of side walls 73, 73, an upper wall 72, and a lower wall 71 of the outer package 7a cover the periphery of the package body 2a. In particular, the upper wall 72 and the lower wall 71a of the outer package 7a restrict the movement in the up-down direction when the cover 3a is opened. Therefore, in the package 105 of the fifth embodiment, the opening and closing of the lid 3a is strongly restricted.

When the cigarette accommodated in the package 105 is taken out, an external force is applied to the outer cover 4b, and the outer cover 4b is slid upward along the front surface of the package 105 (refer to Fig. 25B). Further, when the outer cover 4b slides over the package 105, the small tongue portion 46b of the tongue portion 45 of the cover 3a is combined with the coupling hole 35 of the cover 3b. When the small tongue portion 46b is combined with the coupling hole 35, the open edge 451 of the tongue portion 45 comes into contact with the upper wall 32 of the cover 3, and the upward movement of the outer cover 4b is restricted. The cover 4b is in a state of covering only the front wall 33 of the cover 3a. The engagement between the step 44 of the outer cover 4 and the flap 5 of the outer package 21a is released, and only the flap 5 of the cover 3a is engaged. Therefore, the rotation restriction of the cover 3a formed by the outer cover 4b is released. In the package 103 of the third embodiment, when the rotation restriction of the lid 3a formed by the outer cover 4b is released, the lid 3a is rotatably pivoted by the first hinge 6 (refer to Figs. 16C, 17D, and 17E). ). On the other hand, the package 105 of the fifth embodiment also restricts the rotation of the lid 3a by the outer package 7a.

In the package 105 of the fifth embodiment, by applying a force to the front side (upward in FIG. 25A) to the package main body 2a, the rotation restriction of the cover 3 formed by the outer package 7a is released (refer to FIG. 25C). . Specifically, when a force toward the front is applied to the package body 2a, the package body 2a is gradually moved forward to restrict the package by the upper wall 72 and the lower wall 71a of the outer package 7a. The force of the movement in the upper direction of the body 2a is gradually weakened (refer to Fig. 25B). Then, when the force applied to the package body 2a beyond the front exceeds the upper wall 72 and the lower wall 71a of the outer package 7a to restrict the movement of the upper and lower sides of the package body 2a, the cover 3a is pivoted by the first hinge 6. To rotate (refer to Figure 25C). Here, the front side of the upper wall 32 of the lid 3a is adhered to the region 722 on the front side of the upper wall 72 of the outer package 7a, but the rear side 721 of the upper wall 32 of the lid 3a is not adhered. Therefore, when the lid 3a is rotated about the first hinge 6, the second hinge 61 existing at the boundary between the region 722 on the front side and the region 721 on the rear side is the axis, and the rotation of the lid 3a is allowed. Further, the region on the front side of the lower wall 26 of the outer casing 21 and on the inner side of the small flap 713 is adhered to the region 712a on the front side of the lower wall 71a of the outer package 7a, but the outer side of the small flap 713 and The rear side of the lower wall 26 of the outer package 21 is not adhered. Therefore, the lower wall 71a of the outer package 7a is elastically deformed. Specifically, when the lid 3a is rotated about the first hinge 6, the boundary between the front side region 712a and the rear side region 711a functions as a hinge, and the package 7a is located outside the small flap 713. The connection portion between the region 712a on the front side of the lower wall 71a and the region 711a on the rear side is deflected, and the lower wall 71a of the outer package 7a is elastically deformed. Thereby, the boundary between the front side region 712 and the rear side region 711 is formed as a linear crease, and the entire inner surface of the front side region 712 is adhered to the front wall 26 of the outer casing 21. In comparison with the case of the side, the amount of movement of the package body 2a toward the upper side can be increased (refer to Fig. 25D). As a result, the opening degree of the cover 3a can be increased.

(effect)

In the package 105 of the fifth embodiment, the cover 4b is covered so as to straddle the outer casing 21a and the lid 3a, whereby the rotation of the lid 3a can be restricted in a state where the lid 3a is closed. Further, since the rotation of the cover 3a can also be restricted by the outer package 7a. Therefore, the rotation of the cover 3a can be restricted more strongly. Therefore, the cover 3a of the package 105 can be closed more surely. Further, on the outer cover 4b, in addition to the package body 2a and the lid 3a, printing can be performed. As a result, the package 105 ensures more printing space than ever before, increasing the appeal to consumers. Further, unlike the configuration in which only the outer cover 4b is provided, the outer surface of the package 105 can be uniformly formed while eliminating the step of the outer surface. Therefore, when the package 105 is housed in a pocket of a garment or the like, the package 105 can be prevented from being caught in the pocket.

<Modification>

The packages 101, 102, 103, 104, and 105 of the examples of the above embodiments can be combined as appropriate, and various modifications can be added. For example, the plurality of flaps 5 in the packages 103, 104, 105 are all of the same size and are arranged at equal intervals. However, the flaps 5 can also be resized or changed in spacing. For example, the shape or spacing of the flaps 5 of the outer package 21a may be different from the shape or spacing of the flaps 5 of the cover 3a. Thereby, the vibration of the cover 4 can be changed when it is slid. The change in the vibration is transmitted to the user's finger, and the user can recognize, for example, that the cover 4 slides toward the cover 3a or the cover 3a can be opened or closed without visual inspection.

In addition, a plurality of flaps may be joined to form a continuous rail instead of the plurality of flaps 5. In this case, although the package may be made of paper, the package may be formed into a resin to make it easier to form the package.

In addition, a plurality of flaps 5 may also be disposed on the side of the package body 2a. Both sides of the edge. At this time, the outer cover 4 only needs to have a lower wall instead of the upper wall 43. In this case, it is not necessary to provide the upper wall 43, the tongue portion 45, and the coupling hole 35 of the cover 3 of the outer cover 4, and for example, the package 103 is formed into a simpler configuration. At this time, the cover 3a can be opened and closed by sliding the cover 4 downward.

Further, the outer cover 4 can also be constituted by the front wall 41 and the side wall 42. At this time, it is not necessary to provide the upper wall 43, the tongue portion 45, and the coupling hole 35 of the cover 3 of the outer cover 4, and for example, the package 103 is formed in a simpler configuration. At this time, the cover 3a can be opened and closed by sliding the outer cover 4 to either the upper side and the lower side.

Further, the outer cover 4 may be covered so as to straddle the outer casing 21 and the lid 3a, and may cover a part of the front wall 33 of the lid 3a and a part of the front wall 23 of the outer casing 21a.

Although the preferred embodiments of the present invention have been described above, the hinged lid package of the present invention can be implemented by combining the embodiments as much as possible. In addition, in the present embodiment, a preferred example of the object to be accommodated in the hinged lid package is a cigarette product such as a filter cigarette or a filterless cigarette, but the present invention is not limited thereto. Items other than cigarette products are contained in the package.
