Definitions
- An embodiment of the present invention refers to a device which can hold a cigarette lighter, book/box of matches or other ignition device and is attachable to a cigarette pack or the like but is detachable and reusable.
- Another embodiment could be of a different size and shape to hold documents to a carton or other type of container.
- this description is based on the embodiment of a device to hold a cigarette lighter or similar for attaching to a cigarette pack or the like, though there are further applications for this invention.
- the present invention provides a lighter holder that can be attached to a packet of cigarettes or the like so that the lighter and packet of cigarettes or the like form a single unit. The smoker should be assured that the lighter and cigarettes will be found together as the lighter can be operated whilst in the lighter holder and is not separated from the packet of cigarettes or the like.
- All of these inventions may be pre-formed at the manufacture stage; this makes them expensive and are often complicated and bulky items.
- This present invention can be manufactured as a flat and pre-creased device which is simple to fold and assemble by the user thus keeping the costs of production to a minimum and overcoming the aforementioned disadvantages.
- a further advantage of the present invention could be that it can be assembled with either flat face of the pre-cut form on the outside similar to a reversible item of clothing.
- Fig 1 is an outline of the lighter holder in flat form with pre-creases indicated by dashed lines.
- Fig 2 is a three-quarters front perspective of the assembled lighter holder according to the invention.
- Fig 3 is a three-quarters rear perspective of the assembled lighter holder according to the invention.
- Fig 4 is a pictorial illustration showing the present invention assembled and attached by means of flaps (12) and (14) to a packet of cigarettes.
- Fig 5 is an outline of Fig 1 showing an alternative construction for fitment to a soft packet of cigarettes.
- Fig 6 is a pictorial illustration of Fig 5 showing an alternative construction of the device assembled and attached to a soft packet of cigarettes.
- the elements marked with numbers in the drawings correspond to the parts mentioned below.
- the device described and indicated comprises:
- - flap (12) also has a crease (34);
- - flap (14) is split into two elements, a section (30) that is the bottom of the sleeve (10) that stops the lighter sliding all the way through the sleeve (10) and a section (32) that is designed to prevent the flap (14) from slipping out from its position within a packet of cigarettes or the like;
- - all creases are indicated by a dashed line and are either vertical or horizontal except (34) which is located on flap (12) and is at an angle to match that found on the side of a packet of cigarettes or the like; - a flap (38) as an alternative to flap (12).
- the size of the lighter holder and its dimensions are variable as there are variations on the sizes of cigarette packets or the like depending on brand and country.
- Assembly can be quick and very simple.
- the elements (28), (24), (22), (20) 105 and (18) can be folded along their connecting creases to form a sleeve (10), flaps (16) can then be slotted through apertures (26).
- a further embodiment could be that the elements (28), (24), (22), (20) and (18) may not be creased as individual sections but act as a single surface to create a cylinder that is open at both ends.
- the 110 flaps (16) could be slightly wider than the apertures (26) and furthermore the flaps (16) could have small additional cuts (36) at their left and right sides along their creases so that when they are pushed through the apertures (26) they could lock into place.
- Flap (12) can be folded back away from the sleeve (10) so that it may lie flush to the back panel (18).
- Flap (14) can be folded at right angles under the sleeve (10) so that the section (30) may become the base of the sleeve (10) and the section (32) may be 120 protruding backwards and perpendicular to the back panel (18).
- Flap (12) can then be inserted down the side and within a packet of cigarettes or the like. Flap (12) could be angled in such a way as to part the two pieces of card or material that forms a packet of cigarettes or the like and are sometimes 125 found to be glued together.
- Section (32) of flap (14) could then be inserted within the base fold structure of a packet of cigarettes or the like.
- Section (32) may be in a shape as shown to help retention within a base fold structure or adapted to improve the retention.
- the holder With the flaps (12) and (14) in place the holder is firmly attached to the packet of cigarettes or the like and a lighter contained within it can be held securely; maybe immediately available at any time and does not need to be removed from the sleeve for ignition.
- the lighter holder Whilst the lighter holder is securely in place and the lighter held firmly within, it 140 is still easy and simple to withdraw the lighter from the lighter holder should it need to be refilled or replaced and similarly the lighter holder can be removed from the packet of cigarettes or the like and attached to a different packet.
- FIG. 5 An alternative embodiment of the present invention illustrated in Fig 5 and Fig 145 6 shows how a slight change to the configuration of flap (12) into flap (38) produces a lighter holder that can be used on a soft packet of cigarettes. It will be understood by those who practice the invention and by one skilled in the art, that various modifications and improvements may be made without departing from the spirit of the invention and that Fig 5 is only one example of 150 a modification.
- Either surface of the present invention in Fig 1 or Fig 5 may be provided with decorative design or texture and the like.
- a decorative design or texture may be selected to provide an appealing visual impression. Also, either of the two
- 155 surfaces may be provided with enhanced gripping qualities to reduce slippage of the flaps (12), (14) and (38) from their relative positions within a packet of cigarettes or the like or of the lighter held within the sleeve (10).
- the application of an aesthetic or friction enhancing treatment to either of the surfaces in Fig 1 or Fig 5 may be applied in any combination.
- the invention within its speciality, may be realized in other ways which differ in detail from that indicated as an example in the preceding description and which will be similarly covered by the protection requested. It may therefore be constructed in any shape or size and with the most appropriate materials,
