COMBINED CIGARETTE AND MATCH COMPACT.
Application led February This invention relates'to improvements in smokers articles, and particularly to one of l especial benefit and appeal to smokers of the package is opened to remove the ciga-l the need of ready made cigarettes.
The principal object of my invention is to provide a combined cigarette and match compact in which, as the term implies, a ce1'- tain number of cigarettes, as well as matches therefor, are arranged as a single unitary article. e n
My improved compact has the outward appearance and is preferably the same size as the ordinary package of cigarettes and will have but very few' less than the usual number of cigarettes if put up in such size.
The matchV container is so arranged that while any match is readilyaccessihlle when rettes in the usual manner, the matches and cigarettes are maintained in definitely associated or unitary relation as long as the package is not destroyed.
This novelty compact should appeal to all cigarette smokers since, as will be evident, purchasing separate cigarette and match packets is obviated, as well as the frequent'inconvenience of carrying and using two such separate and individual packets. This is especially true with Arm and Navy men whose pockets are usually few and of small size.
Further, the compact isa great convenience and a timefsaver in use and the annoyance and inconvenience incident to the misplacing of a match box or the initial failure to buy one when purchasing cigarettes, is avoided. V
The package may be made up without deviating from present methods and the cost of sale to the public need not be more than that `of an ordinary package though worth much more from the standpoint of convenience etc. as above set forth.
A further `object of the ,invention is to produce a simple and inexpensive device and'` yet one which will be exceedingly e'ective for the purpose for which it is designed.
These objects I accomplishby means of f such structure and relative arrangement vof parts, as kfully appear by a perusal of the following specification and claim. j In the drawings similar characters of reference 'indicate corresponding parts inthe several views.
Fig. 1 is a perspective view of the comy 1 as shown in Fig.
9, 1925. Serial No. 7,820.
pact showing the same as opened for use.
Fig. 2 is a longitudinal section ofthe compact before being opened.
Referring now more particularly to the characters of reference` marked on the drawings, the package proper, which forms the enclosure for both cigarettes and matches` is made as usual from a sheet of paper, leafl or tin foil or the like folded lengthwise to form a. relatively narrow rectangular container and then folded and sealed at top and bottom as at 2 to make the container of the height of the cigarettes 3 therein.
An ,outer wrapper of paper et to serve as a label giving the brandvof cigarettes etc. is placed about the sides of the wrapping element and terminates a short distance from the top of the latter. y
Fitting between the sides of the container 1 at one end thereof is an open ended narrow casin or sleeve 5 of cardboard or the like, the ce of which adjacent the end of the container l is preferably glued to the j 6 to contain a suitable number of matches 7, said box being opened along the side facing the adjacent end of the container l. The box 6'is the same length as'the casing 5 or-container l and to enable said box to be drawn out when l desired to get at the matches, the outer face of said casing at both ends has centrally lo` cated Enger notches 8 cut down about to the level of the outer wrapper 4.
On the end ofthe wrapper adjacent the `match container is astrip of sand paper 9/or the. like, while directions with regard to where to open the package are preferably printed on said wrapper at the match box end thereof as at 10.
In operation the user as is customary tears open the container 1 at the end having the above named directions thereon for a small portion of its extent the tear of itself usually extending to the adjacent edge of the outer wrapper 4,`which forms a protection against -urther tearing of the main container of package material.
is operation exposes the adjacent notch 8 in the match x casing so that when a cigarette is withdrawn from the package the adjacent end of the Imatch box may be engaged by a fingernail and the box moved out to allow the match to be withdrawn, as
shown in Fig. 1. This done, the box is pressed back into its casing, preventing any matches from falling out.
The casing 5 is preferably made open at both ends so that should the package be opened at the other end by mistake the matches are available without opening the opposite end. The dept-h of the match box is such that it takes the place of a single transverse row of cigarettes, while such a depth gives ample room for a number of matches more than equal to the number of cigarettes in the package.
From the foregoing description it will be readily seen that I have produced such a device as substantially fullls the objects Y, of the invention as set forth, herein.
I claim as new and useful and desire to secure by Letters Patent is: A
A combination cigarette and match compact comprising a container for the cigarettes anda container for the matches, the two containers being disposed side by side and enclosed in a common relatively light wrapping member, the match container including a sliding drawer in a relatively inflexible cover, the cover at one end being provided with a notch to allow the sliding drawer to be engaged by the fingers to withdraw it from the cover, and a second and relatively .heavy Wrapping element enclosing the compact and terminating a short distance be-
