BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention This invention relates to a combination article holder, and specifically to a combination cigarette and match holder.
2. Description of the Prior Art It is known to combine cigarette and match holders into a single package. Embodiments are known which employ a holder slidable relative to the package housing. Examples of packages using this approach are found in US. Pat. Nos. 1,534,519, 1,604,296 and 2,811,247. Another known approach is to have both the cigarette and match holding portions slidable with respect to a cover portion, as is shown in, for example, US. Pat. No. 666,732. Yet another known approach is to retain the matches in a clip arranged at the bottom of the package, and normally cover and protect the matches with a hinged cover member. An example of this latter approach may be found in U.S. Pat. No. 3,] 15,241.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION It is an object of the present invention to provide an improved combined article holder specifically for cigarettes and matches which is more convenient to use and economical to manufacture than the known holders.
This and other objects are achieved according to the present invention by providing a combination cigarette and match holder having a housing provided with a first article portion and a second article holding portion provided with an opening in the housing for passing article's therethrough and means for selectively covering and uncovering the opening. Specifically, the first article holding portion is a cigarette holding portion, and the second article holding portion is a match holding portion.
According to a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the covering means is a flap hinged to the housing and provided with a tab. The housing is provided with a slot for receiving the tab and retaining the flap in a position covering the opening. The housing preferably has a rectangular configuration with front and rear walls, and a pair of side walls and end walls. The opening and slot are arranged in one side wall adjacent one end wall and one of the front and rear walls, respectively. The opening is spaced from the other of the front and rear walls so as to form a restricted opening. A strip constructed from a material suitable for igniting a match struck thereagainst is mounted on the other side wall.
The one side wall provided with the slot and opening is preferably constructed from inner and outer layers of sheet material. The outer layer has a severed portion forming the flap, and the inner layer is provided with the opening in the slot.
An insert element is preferably arranged within the housing and provided with a wall separating and partially defining the cigarette and match holding portions. This insert element may be a longitudinally extending member constructed from a flat piece of material folded along four transverse and two longitudinal fold lines.
These together with other objects and advantages which will become subsequently apparent reside in the details of construction and operation as more 'fully hereinafter described and claimed, reference being had to the accompanying drawings forming a part hereof, wherein like numerals refer to like parts throughout.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS FIG. 1 is a left-front perspective view showing a combination cigarette and match holder according to the present invention.
FIG. 2 is a right-front perspective view showing the holder of FIG. 1 with the top cover member in its open position.
FIG. 3 is a fragmentary right-rear perspective view showing the covering flap in its open position.
FIG. 4 is a sectional view taken generally along the line 4-4 of FIG. 1.
FIG. 5 is a sectional view taken generally along the line 5-5 of FIG. 1.
FIG. 6 is a plan view showing an insert member according to the present invention in its unfolded position.
FIG. 7 is a right-front perspective view showing the insert member of FIG. 6 in its folded position.
DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS Referring now to FIGS. 1 to 5 of the drawings, a combination cigarette and match holder 10 has a housing 12 having a first article, or cigarette holding portion 14 and a second article, or match holding portion 16. Portion 16 is provided with an opening 18 (FIG. 3) in housing 12 for passing articles such as matches 19 therethrough. A means 20 is provided for selectively covering and uncovering opening 18.
Covering means 20 has a flap 22 integrally hinged in a known manner to housing 12 at point 24. Flap 22 is provided with a tab 26, and housing 12 is provided with a slot 28 for receiving tab 26 and retaining flap 22 in a position covering the opening 18, as is shown in FIGS. 1 and 5.
Referring now to FIGS. 6 and 7 of the drawings, reference numeral 52 designates an insert element according to the present invention. Insert element 52 is intended to be arranged within housing 12, and is provided with a wall 54 separating and partially defining the holding portions 14 and 16.
When insert element 52 is arranged in housing 12 as shown in FIGS. 2 and 4 of the drawings, a package 86 of cigarettes 45 may be placed herein by, for example, the consumer. Alternatively, cigarettes 45 and matches 19 may be packaged directly in holder by a manufacturer. Appropriate printed matter may be put on the housing 12 of the resulting package. The resulting holder 10 is approximately the same size and uses similar fabrication techniques as cigarette packages presently on the market, and is therefore convenient to use and economical to manufacture. The user will not have to worry about having a match. Furthermore, it is possible with the combination cigarette and match holder 10 according to the present invention to, for example, mail cigarettes to points domestic and foreign without the necessity of wrapping separate matches in the mailing package.
The foregoing is considered as illustrative only of the principles of the invention. Further, since numerous modifications and changes will readily occur to those skilled in the art, it is not desired to limit the invention to the exact construction and operation shown and described, and accordingly all suitable modifications and equivalents may be resorted to, falling within the scope of the invention.
