UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
CIGARETTE CONTAINER.
Application filed April 9, 1926. Serial No. 100,797.
The present invention relates to containers for cigars, cigarettes and the like wherein a stiff cardboard box of suitable size is used to market the product. have been constructed of two similar half sections. hinged together along one edge, one half section, the base or containing sect on, being provided with an outwardly pro ect ng strip or flange extending around the interior of the section and permitting the other half section, the upper or lid section, to close telescopically upon it in serving as a. lid for the first section.
The above container necessitates packing of the cigarettes in two layers in the first section, the top layer being flush with the top of the flange. In removing the cigarettes from the box, the containing section must always be upright to prevent the contents from falling out. Furthermore, after having consumed one layer, some inconvenlence is experienced in removing the first of the bottom layer.
The present invention has for an object, the provision of a container which may be opened in any position without danger of losing the contents and which more effectively preserves the cirgarettes and presents the latter in a readily accessible manner regardless of how many cigarettes have already been removed.
Reference will now be had to the accompanying drawings for a more detailed description of the device, wherein:
Figure 1 is a perspective view of a pro posed embodiment of my invention.
Figure 2 is a mid-section of the device of Figure 1 taken on a line parallel to the hinged back.
Figure 3 shows a modified form of container wherein the positioning flanges are disposed chiefly along the front and rear edges of the container.
Figures 4 and 5 illustrate a further embodiment wherein the invention is applied to soft paper containers.
In Figure 1 a designates a container formed of two equal half sections 6 and 0. Each is made of stilt cardboard and hinged to one another along companion edges d. Along the bottom and lower half of a side edge of one section, is provided a positioning strip or flange e which projects outwardly a distance whichmay approximate the depth of a half section. The companion section Heretofore such boxes is likewise provided with a strip which is secured to the top and upper half of the side edges as at f. It will be seen that when the box is closed each section will telescope the strip on the opposite section anda closed proper posit-ion and prevent them from falling out when the box is opened. Such strip is illustrated at g and may be of a suitable width of paper or any other suitable material properly secured to the section containing the layer of cigarettes.
It has been found that by roughening the outer face of the positioning strips as at h, the sections will be retained more securely in a closed position.
Figure 3 illustrates amodification wherein the flanges are disposed along the outer or front, and hinged or rear, sides as at z' and j, respectively. They may be slightly turned inwardly along the two adjacent sides to impart added rigidity to the closed container and a suitable retaining strip such as is may be used to keep the cigarettes in the desired position.
Figures 4: and 5 show still another modification wherein the invention is applied to a soft paper container. In this form the flange is secured to the outside oi the side of the half section and on opposite sides of the cooperating sections. Such embodiment is illustrated by flanges Z which are secured to the edges m, n, at opposite sides of sections 0, g), respectively.
From the foregoing it will be seen that a container has been provided which resembles the well known metal cigarette case in con venience and attractiveness and which enables the cigarettes to be retailed in a highly desirable manner. In use, the box can be opened without fear of losing the contents even if the containing section is not in an upright position. When open, the cigarettes are equally accessible whether the box is full or the contents nearly consumed. The book for of container combines the desirable featuresof a metal cigarette case withthose of the old form of cardboard cont-ainer.
The above description serves merely to illustrate a preferred form of my device it outer surface on the flange which contacts with the other sections whereby the container will be more eflectively retained in a closed position. v This specification signed this 8th day; of April A. D. 1926.
