PACKAGE.
Application tiled August 10, 1923. Seria1-No. 656,695.
f My invention relates to improvements in .packages which may be quickly opened and their contentsmade accessible by pulling on a'string.
The principal object of my invention is to provide a package for holding cigarettes of 'such character that the package may be flexibly opened centrally by a string.
Another object of my invention is to proln vide means for'exibly closing the package automatically whereby the contained oigarettes are not only held in position in the package but are also prevented from being crushed. Referring to the drawings in which like numbers indicate the same ,partsz- Fig. 1 is a View showing my improved ciga- .rette package.
Fig. 2 isa view of the fiexible opening and 2o containing means used.
Fig. 3 is a view showingthe package when exibly sprung apart.
Fig. 4 `is a transverse cross section of the iilled package. c
Fig. 5 is a view showing the creasings applied to the flexible container.
' In the manufacture of my package, a sheet of stiff paper, or cardboard, 3 is cut to size and creased at 4, 5, 6, 7 and 8 in order .to fold to the required positionjndicated in Fig. 2, it being noted that the upper and lower ends of 3 are open.
A string, preferably a strong small diameter string such as 2 which may be rendered .sharp by treatment with sizing, is attached to the bottom of 3 by passing t rough a hole therein and knotting the end, or same may be attached to 3 in any other suitable manner.
fab
5, 7 and 8 in order to preserve the flexibility of the back of 3 and in some cases it may be desirable to dispense with crease 6 altogether. The required number of cigarettes 9 are wrapped in tinfoil 12, the ends of which are turned over so as to just meet, thereby forming `a joint which 'ust -meets but does not overlap, the joint eing arranged to come directly under the opening 10 in 3 when the tinfoil 12 containing cigarettes 9 is 'slipped into 3. String 2 is now folded in the joint 10 and 3 is encased in an outer wrapper l which has its upper and lower ends turned -in for rendering the contents air and moisture roof, the upper end of 1 Abeing turned in and Grease 6 is not made as deep as creases 4,
not necessary to touch tin as shown in Fig. 1 so that the vend of 2 is folded therewith and projects a certain distance therefrom.
It is to be understood that 1 is comprised of a sheet of paper the ends of which are lapped and .sealed with paste, the revenue stamps 11 being applied preferably at the upper end, thereby reinforcing the part contiguous to the end of 2 and l may comprise the wrapper containing the brand of the cigarete's and so forth, and is preferably glued to L In order to open the package it is sim ly held firmly in one hand and 2 pulled quie ly back against the resistance offered by 11 and 7o 1, whereupon a clean cut is -made opening One side and the two ends of 1 and by a slight ,pressure of the hand holding the package on 44 and 8, the package is opened as shown in Fig. `3 whereby cigarettes 9 may be ab- 'I5 stracted.
Upon the release of ressure applied to 4 and 8, the flexibility ofP 3, owing to its stiffness or rigidity, causes the package to close, thereby preserving the cigarettes from loss or being crushed. y i
In the ordinary paperpackages used for containing cigarettes, the cigarettes rapidly become crushed and disintegrated by carrying the same in a pocket, but by my invention I am now enabled to prevent all this loss and inconvenience while supplying at the same time all the necessary parts for a commercial package.
It is an essential feature of my invention to provide a comparatively stiff container for cigarettes which may be easily spilt substantially centrally for abstracting the cigarettes, but which will always resume its shape While carrying protection :for the cigarettes, the Astiffness of the container being of a springlike nature for which many alternatives suggest themselves.
It should. be noted that the tinfoil 12 is so\ folded around the cigarettes 9 that the endsmo of 12 will just about meet and consequently when lis split by pulling on string 2 it is oil 12for abstacting cigarettes 9 therefrom because 12 will open in a manner corresponding to the opening of 10 as already described.
