Abstract

A container for smoking articles comprises at least two hingedly connected packs, each for housing a separate bundle of smoking articles. The container comprises: a first pack (2) having a first wall (11, 11', 51) with opposed first and second edges; a second pack (5) having a first wall (21, 21 ', 61 ) with opposed first and second edges; and a connector (28, 28', 68, 78) extending between the first edge of the first wall (11, 11', 51) of the first pack (2) and the second edge of the first wall (21, 21', 61) of the second pack (5). The connector (28, 28', 68, 78) is hingeable relative to the first pack (2) about the first edge of the first wall (11, 11', 51) of the first pack (2) and hingeable relative to the second pack (5) about the second edge of the first wall (21, 21', 61) of the second pack (5) between a first position, in which the first edges of the first walls (11, 11 ', 21, 21 ', 51, 61 ) of the first (2) and second (5) packs are adjacent and the second edges of the first walls (11, 11', 21, 21', 51, 61) of the first (2) and second (5) packs are adjacent, and a second position, in which the first edges of the first walls (11, 11', 21, 21', 51, 61) of the first (2) and second (5) packs are spaced apart and the second edges of the first walls (11, 11', 21, 21', 51, 61) of the first (2) and second (5) packs are spaced apart.
