Definitions
- FR 1 081 649 discloses a cigarette package comprising an outer shell and an inner shell.
- the inner shell accommodates the cigarettes and can be moved up and down in the outer shell by means of an actuating knob guided in a slot in the front wall of the outer shell.
- the top side of the outer shell is closed by two lids. When the inner shell is upwardly moved, the lids open automatically. This package can be handled by one hand.
- the means for actuating the lids are elaborate and tend to be expensive.
- US 2 929 542 describes a slide box for cigarettes in which an inner shell can be slid inside an outer shell.
- a lid is con- nected to a top edge of the inner shell by means of a flexible connector, which unlocks "the lid after it has been moved out of the outer shell when the inner shell is slid in top direction.
- This package can be handled by one hand, but this might be inconvenient because the lid does not necessarily open automatically and it might be required to tilt the package for opening the lid.
- US 4 240 548 discloses a push pack comprising an outer shell without bottom and an inner shell. A lid opens automatically when the inner shell is moved in top direction. In order to move the inner shell, however, the user has to push it from the bottom side, which much impedes one-hand operation.
- At least one wall of the outer shell is provided with a cutout (aperture) through which part of the ⁇ inner shell is exposed.
- a cutout aperture
- a user can transmit a force onto the inner shell in order to move the inner shell, i.e. in order to shift the inner shell from its retracted to its advanced position or to move it back from its advanced to its retracted position.
- a connector is provided between a portion of the inner shell and the lid.
- the connector engages the lid at a distance from the hinge line smaller than the dimension of the lid in a di- rection perpendicular to the hinge line and is adapted to push the lid into its opened state when the inner shell is moved into its advanced position and to pull the lid into its closed state when the inner shell is moved into its retracted position.
- the lid is automatically opened and closed, re- spectively, when the user moves the inner shell.
- the package according to the invention can be handled in a very convenient way.
- the package according to the invention can be handled or operated just by means of one hand.
- the user can hold it in one hand, e.g. the rear wall of the outer shell facing his or her palm, and he or she can use his or her thumb in order to grasp through the cutout and shift the inner shell by slightly pressing onto the inner shell and moving the thumb in a direction towards the lid or away from the lid, respectively (or alternatively shift the inner shell by means of the actuator mentioned above) .
- the lid opens and closes automatically.
- the package according to the invention permits an attractive design, and it can be manufactured to a moderate price.
- the connector can be designed as a hinged connector, which includes at least one hinge, e.g. a hinge line at which a generally flat connector is swivelably connected to the lid or the inner shell.
- a hinged connector can also be formed, e.g., from metal (e.g. designed as a wire) or from plastic.
- the connector does not comprise a hinge or hinges, e.g. a connector made from a flexible material and non-swivelably fixed to the lid and the inner shell so that the connector elastically bends when the lid opens or closes .
- the inner shell in its retracted position, can be housed inside the outer shell.
- the outer shell can also be de- signed as a less comprehensive structure so that the outer shell and the lid, when closed, do not fully enclose the inner shell in its retracted position.
- part of the inner shell protrudes at the bottom end of the outer shell when the lid is closed.
- the lid comprises a top wall having a front edge, a rear edge, two lateral edges and a bottom side.
- the top wall of the lid closes the top side of the outer shell when the lid is in its closed state, wherein the hinge line of the lid is located at the rear edge or at one of the lateral edges of the top wall. Since the hinge line of the lid is essentially at the same level as the top wall of the lid (when it is closed) , the connector can be designed in a simple and reliable manner. Moreover, this geometrical and technical feature permits attractive design aspects.
- the inner shell comprises a rear wall or a lateral wall having an upper edge, wherein the connector extends from this upper edge and includes a first hinge line at or in the area of this upper edge and a second hinge line at the. bottom side of the top wall.
- the distance between the first hinge line and the second hinge line of the connector is greater than the dis- tance between the hinge line of the lid and the second hinge line of the connector, e.g. greater by an amount in the range of from 0.4 mm to 1.8 mm, or by an amount of about 0.7 mm. It will become evident from the embodiments described in more detail below that this condition permits a space-saving, reli- able and smooth coupling between the inner shell and the lid.
- Another advantageous geometrical condition for a reliable operation of the lid is that, in the closed state of the lid, the ratio of the distance between the first hinge line of the connector and the hinge line of the lid to the distance between the hinge line of the lid and the second hinge line of the connector is in the range from 0.5 to 1.0, preferably in the range from 0.70 to 0.85, e.g. about 0.78. Again, this condition will become evident from the embodiments described in detail further below.
- a bevelled edge wall can extend from at least the edge of the top wall oppo- site to the hinge line of the lid.
- the bevelled edge wall is shaped in a sloped or curved manner such that it does not interfere with the outer shell walls during the closing process of the lid and such that it fits into the outer shell when the lid is in its closed state. Thus, it facilitates the closing process by guiding the lid into the top side space of the outer shell, stabilises the package when it is closed, and provides a better protection for the contents of the package.
- the bevelled edge wall can also extend from other edges of the top wall different from the edge comprising the hinge line of the lid. A lid designed in this way can look essentially flat when it is closed, which imparts to the package an interesting and attractive appearance.
- an edge wall extends from at least the edge of the top wall opposite to the hinge line of the lid.
- This edge wall ex- tends generally perpendicularly with respect to the top wall of the lid and is visible when the lid is in its closed state.
- the lid comprises an edge wall, wherein the hinge line of the lid is not located at a top wall of the lid, but is arranged at that edge- wall.
- the inner shell of the package can comprise a front wall pro- viding a free access area, which facilitates the access to the contents of the inner shell when the inner shell is in its advanced position.
- This free access area can be designed, e.g., as a cutoff from the front wall or by means of a portion of the front wall having a lowered upper edge or by means of a front wall having generally a low upper edge.
- the free access area of the inner shell does not overlap with the cutout of the outer shell, i.e. the free access area is not visible when the package is closed. This improves the appearance of the package.
- the front wall of the inner shell comprises a reinforced structure in order to improve its counteraction capabilities when the user touches this front wall, through the cutout, in order to move the inner shell.
- a reinforced structure can be made from double-layer or triple-layer cardboard, e.g., using cardboard panels folded from a blank of the inner shell. It is also conceivable to apply a separate reinforcement panel which is attached to the rest of the inner shell.
- a reinforcement insert can be inserted into the inner shell.
- the reinforcement insert can be formed, e.g., as a plastic container, preferably made by injection-moulding.
- Such design still uses an inner shell, e.g. made from a cardboard blank, which is coupled to the lid via the connector.
- the inner shell it is also possible to dispense with such cardboard inner shell and to design the inner shell as a plastic container which provides the desired rigidity.
- the connector can be formed as part of the plastic container, but it is also conceivable to attach a connector completely formed from a blank of the lid (e.g., as part of a blank of the outer shell) to the plastic container when assembling the package.
- the cutout of the outer shell can be formed from a blank of the outer shell in which at least part of the blank material of the cutout area is folded back to the inner face of the outer shell.
- the edges of the cutout are not sharp or somewhat irregular, but they are determined by the corresponding folding lines, which tend to be smooth and provide a greater thickness of the wall area surrounding the cutout. It can be advantageous when the blank material is not folded back at the top edge of the cutout, because that edge is not seen in detail when the user holds the package in a usual way, whereas a back-folded flap at the top edge of the cutout could interfere with an unimpeded assemblage of the package .
- the inner shell comprises, opposite to the cutout of the outer shell, a grip- enhancing surface.
- grip-enhancing surface can be presented, e.g., by means of a relief structure incorporated in the wall material of the inner shell or provided by a sticker glued to the inner shell in the area in question.
- Another op- tion is a cutout structure, e.g. in a double-layer wall structure of the inner shell in which the outer layer comprises a series of cutouts whereas the inner layer folded to the outer layer is smooth.
- Other embodiments include a high-friction coating or rubber-like coating, either applied to a wall or wall area of the inner shell or to a sticker glued to the inner shell in the area in question.
- the grip-enhancing surface facilitates the operation of the package because it increases the frictional forces to, e.g., the user's thumb.
- a package comprising an actuator for moving the inner shell, which is attached to the inner shell and protrudes through the cutout
- the inner shell is lockable in its retracted position, the locking being releasable by means of the actuator, wherein optionally the inner shell is biased by a spring device towards its advanced position.
- the cutout can comprise a slot extending in parallel to the moving direction of the inner shell as well as a widened area at the lower end of the slot, wherein part of the actuator is lockable in the widened area of the cutout and releasable by pressing the actuator.
- the spring device is provided, the package can be opened in a simple way, e.g., just by pressing the actuator.
- the outer shell and/or the inner shell of the package are folded from a respective blank.
- the respective blank can be made from cardboard (which term includes laminated cardboard or coated cardboard) in the weight range from 180 g/m 2 to 290 g/m 2 . This involves well-established techniques. Cardboard blanks can be designed in a large number of varieties. Other materials for the components of the package are conceivable as well, however, for example cardboard having a weight outside of the range indicated above or laminated materials or plastic materials .
- the package can comprise, e.g., cardboard, laminated cardboard, coated cardboard, plastics materials, metals, aluminium, and/or flat materials (in general) in the thickness range from 50 um to 2000 urn.
- Cardboard can be speci- fied by its weight (mass) per unit area, which may be in the range from 180 g/m 2 to 290 g/m 2 .
- Cardboard can also be specified by its thickness, which may range from 250 pm to 500 pm (measured according to ISO 534).
- Another way to specify cardboard is by means of its stiffness, which may be in the range from 5 mN to 25 mN when measured according to ISO 2493:1992 (E) .
- ISO 2493 describes the determination of resistance to bending of paper and board. The results are expressed as a force acting perpendicular to a cantilever-mounted test piece of 38 mm width close to its free end at a bending length of 50 mm, when the piece bends by 15°.
- the connector can be folded by part of a blank of the outer shell and by part of a blank of the inner shell, wherein both parts are glued together upon assemblage of the package. Or it can be folded by part of a blank of the outer shell and glued directly to the inner shell. Or it can be folded by part of a blank of the inner shell and glued to the lid, which prefera- bly is made from part of a blank of the outer shell.
- the shape of the connector it can be relatively narrow measured in a direction along the hinge line of the lid. But it can also have the greatest or the almost greatest possible width measured in this direction. Generally, a larger width increases the rigidity of the structure.
- a trapezoidal shape of the connector e.g., provides for a large extension where it is required for improving strength but also provides sloped edges which may facilitate the assemblage of the package.
- the connector is provided as a metal part connected to the inner shell and to the lid, or it is provided as a wire connected to the inner shell and to the lid, or it is provided as a plastic part connected to the inner shell and to the lid.
- a connector designed as a flat flexible metal part or a flat flexible plastic part can be useful when the connector does not comprise a hinge or hinges, e.g. when the connecter is non-swivelably fixed to the lid and the inner shell of the package so that the connector elastically bends when the lid opens or closes.
- the package can comprise a noise-producing mechanisms adapted to be operated when the lid is swivelled from the closed state to the opened state and/or from the opened state to the closed state.
- the noise-producing mechanism may comprise a tab arranged at the lid interacting with a counterpart arranged at the outer shell and/or a tab arranged at the outer , shell interacting with a counterpart .arranged at the lid.
- the tab scratches along its counterpart during the actuation of the lid, a noise is produced, which may have an appealing effect.
- the package according to the invention is not restricted to a design comprising one inner shell containing one charge or bundle of tobacco-related products only.
- the invention is also directed to packages including one inner shell containing more than one bundle, and it is further directed to packages including more than one inner shell.
- the package can comprise at least two inner shells which are arranged side by side.
- the lid is swivelably con- nected to the rear wall of the outer shell.
- the lid can be formed from at least two separate parts, which are arranged side by side and are swivelably connected to the rear wall of the outer shell, wherein each of the separate parts of the lid is associated to one of the inner shells.
- the front wall of the outer shell can be provided with at least one cutout adapted to expose part of each of the inner shells and to enable transmitting or exerting a force onto each of the inner shells for moving the respective inner shell and actuating the respective part of the lid via a connector or a hinged connec- tor.
- This at least one cutout can be a single cutout in an area having access to all of the inner shells, or it can include at least two cutouts, one for each inner shell.
- the package according to the invention can be filled with all kinds of tobacco-related articles, for example with cigarettes, cigarillos, cigars, tobacco-containing rods, smokeless tobacco, simulated smoking devices (e.g., electronic cigarettes) , inhalors without combustion of tobacco, or aroma reservoirs .
- tobacco-related articles for example with cigarettes, cigarillos, cigars, tobacco-containing rods, smokeless tobacco, simulated smoking devices (e.g., electronic cigarettes) , inhalors without combustion of tobacco, or aroma reservoirs .
- the package When filled with tobacco-related articles, the package can be enclosed by, e.g., a cellophane or transparent plastic (e.g., polypropylene) wrapper, which is removed or partially removed by the user before opening the package for the first time.
- a cellophane or transparent plastic e.g., polypropylene
- wrappers aid in maintaining the aroma and fresh- ness of the tobacco-related articles and serve as a temper- evident closure.
- the outer shell does not have a cutout in its front wall, rear wall or lateral walls.
- the outer shell rather comprises a cutout in its bottom wall (including a missing -bottom) .
- this embodiment can be constructed as outlined above. For advancing the inner shell, the user has to press upon its bottom (through the bottom aperture of the outer shell) , while for retracting the inner shell, the user has to manually close the lid.

- FIG 1 illustrates a first embodiment of a package 1 for tobacco-related articles.
- the package 1 comprises an outer shell 2, a lid 4 adapted to close the outer shell 2, and an inner shell 6, which is movable within the outer shell 2 from a retracted position, see Figure 1(a), to an advanced position, see Figure 1(b).
- the inner shell 6 accommodates a bundle 8 of tobacco-related articles, e.g. a bundle of cigarettes.
- the bundle 8 is provided in a conventional manner, e.g. by wrapping a plurality of cigarettes with, e.g., an aluminium foil or aluminium- laminated paper. In the state of the package 1 shown in Figure 1 (b) , the bundle 8 can be easily opened in order to take out a cigarette .
- the lid 4 is connected to the upper edge of the rear wall 12 via a hinge line 22 so that it can be swivelled from a closed state, see Figure 1(c), to a fully opened state, see Figure 1(b), Figure 1(d), and Figure 1(e).
- the lid 4 comprises a top wall 24 having a front edge 26 and a rear edge 28 , see Figure 1(d), as well as two lateral edges 30 , see Figure 1(a). Its bottom side is designated by reference numeral 32 , see Figure 1(e).
- the hinge line 22 runs along the rear edge 28 of lid 4 and is designed from a fold line of the blank the outer shell is formed from.
- the inner shell 6 is coupled to the lid 4 by means of a hinged connector 50. As shown in Figure 1(b), the connector 50 extends over most of the width of package 1. Figure 1(e) illustrates the details of the connector 50 and explains how it works.
- the connector 50 extends from the upper edge of the rear wall 42 of the inner shell 6 at a first hinge line 52.
- the connector 50 is attached to the bottom side 32 of the top wall 24 of lid 4 at a second hinge line 54.
- the connector 50 can swivel about the hinge lines 52 and 54.
- the distance between the first hinge line 52 and the second hinge line 54 is greater than the distance between the second hinge line 54 and the hinge line 22 of lid 4, e.g. by an amount of about 0.7 mm.
- Figure 2 illustrates a blank 60 of the outer shell 2, see Figure 2(a), as well as a blank 70 of the inner shell 6, see Fig- ure 2(b).
- both blanks are made from cardboard of a usual thickness, e.g. in the weight range from 180 g/m 2 to 290 g/m 2 .
- Other blank materials are conceivable as well, e.g. laminated cardboard or plastic materials.
- the front wall 10, the rear wall 12, the lateral walls 14, and the bottom wall 16 of the outer shell 2 are indicated by their reference numerals.
- any gluing tabs are designated by reference numeral 62 and any cut- through lines by reference numeral 63.
- the lines not indicated by reference numerals are usual fold lines. The hatched areas are completely cut away.
- three tabs 64 are provided which are folded back during the assemblage of the package and are glued to the inner side of the front wall 10 in order to form smooth and well-appearing edges of the cutout 20.
- Reference numeral 65 indicates an area for a warning hint. The size of this area is prescribed by national regulations. In blank 60, the area 65 is located below the cutout 20.
- a reinforcement panel 66 is folded back during assemblage of the outer shell 2 in order to strengthen the outer shell 2 and form a well-appearing upper edge of the front wall 10.
- Figure 2(a) also illustrates how the lid 4 including its top wall 24 and the edge walls 34 and 36 is formed from the blank 60.
- the edge walls 34 and 36 are folded about their respective fold lines and are fixed to the lower side of top wall 24 by means of respective gluing tabs 62.
- a first part 68 of the hinged connector 50 is incorporated in the gluing tab 62 of the front edge wall 34.
- the blank 70 of the inner shell 6 shown in Figure 2(b) comprises the front wall 40, the rear wall 42, both lateral walls 44 and the bottom wall 46 of the inner shell 6 and additionally some gluing tabs 72. Cut-through lines are indicated by reference numeral 73.
- Part 74 is a reinforcement part which, after having been folded and glued to the rear wall 42, stabilises the rear wall 42 and provides for a well-appearing upper edge of the rear wall 42.
- a reinforcement panel 76 is folded back (and preferably glued) to the inner side of the front wall 40 in order to stabilise the front wall 40 of the inner shell 6.
- the front wall 40 of the inner shell 6 does not much yield under this pressure.
- the residual bundle 8 gets smaller and does not stabilise the inner shell 6 anymore.
- the rigid front wall 40 is advantageous.
- another reinforcement panel can be used. This addi- tional reinforcement panel can be part of the blank of the inner shell 6.
- a separate reinforcement panel e.g.
- the inner shell could be made completely from a suffi- ciently strong plastic material, e.g. as an injection-moulded part .
- Figure 2 (b) also shows a second part 78 of the connector 50 which is cut out from the reinforcement part 74 along three cut-through lines 73.
- the inner shell 6 is assembled from blank 70. After assemblage of the outer shell 2 and the inner shell 6 from the blanks 60 and 70, respectively, is complete, the inner shell 6 is inserted in the outer shell 2 via top side 18, and the first part 68 and the second part 78 of the connector 50 are glued together, e.g. in a position of the lid 4 as in Figure 1(a).
- the connector can be different from that shown in Figure 2, e.g. an even wider connector which would stabilise the package even more than the connector 50 of package 1.
- FIG. 3 illustrates another embodiment of a package for tobacco-related articles, which is designated by reference numeral 80.
- the package 80 is similar to the package 1 described so far. For this reason, for most parts of package 80, the same reference numerals are used as for package 1. These parts, which include the opening mechanism of the lid 4, are not explained again .
- the outer shell 2 has an octagonal cross-sectional shape, see in particular the bottom view according to Figure 3(c).
- This octagonal shape is achieved by means of side panels 82 which are folded by fold lines 83 from the front wall 10 and the rear wall 12, respectively.
- the side panels 82 are considered as parts of the front wall 10 and the rear wall 12, respectively, but they could be considered as parts of the lateral walls 14 as well.
- Figure 4(a) shows a blank 84 for the outer shell of package 80.
- a warning-hint area 85 is located above the cutout of the front wall.
- the cutout in the front wall of the outer shell should not overlap with the free ac- cess area of the inner shell when the inner shell is in its retracted position.
- FIG. 4 (b) A blank 86 of the inner shell of package 80 is shown in Figure 4 (b) .
- the shape of the inner shell is adapted to that of the outer shell, i.e. the inner shell has an octagonal cross- sectional shape as well.
- the corresponding side panels and fold lines are indicated by reference numerals 88 and 89, respectively.
- Figure 5 illustrates a third embodiment of the package for tobacco-related articles, which is designated by reference numeral 90.
- an outer shell 92 with a cutout 93 at its front wall can be closed at its top side by means of a swivelable lid 94.
- An inner shell 96 is shiftably mounted in the outer shell 92 and can be moved from a retracted position to an advanced position.
- the lid 94 is coupled to the inner shell 96 by means of a connector.
- a user can move the inner shell 96 and automati- cally open the lid 94 by gripping with, e.g., the thumb through the cutout 93 and sliding the inner shell 96 upwards. So far, the package 1 and the package 90 are very similar.
- FIG. 100 A fourth embodiment of the package for tobacco-related articles is shown in Figure 6.
- This package is designated by reference numeral 100.
- the package 100 comprises an outer shell 102 with two cutouts 103 in its front wall.
- the lid which is swivelably connected to the upper edge of the rear wall of the outer shell 102, consists of two parts, a first part 104 and a second part 105. Both parts 104 and 105 of the lid are independent from each other.
- the first part 104 of the lid is coupled to the first inner shell 106 by means of a connector designed as connector 50 of the embodiment according to Figure 1.
- the second part 105 of the lid is coupled to the second inner shell 107 by means of a corresponding connector. Consequently, both inner shells 106 and 107 including the parts of the lid coupled thereto, i.e. the first part 104 and the second part 105, respectively, can be moved independently from each other.
- the package 100 can be considered as two packages 1 arranged side by side with a common outer shell 102.
- the package 110 comprises an outer shell 112, a lid 114, which is automatically operated via a connector 115, and an inner shell 116, which can be moved from a retracted position to an advanced position.
- the inner shell 116 is in its retracted position.
- Figure 7(a) shows an intermediate state, when the lid 114 is partially opened.
- Figure 7 (b) the inner shell 116 has been moved to its advanced position, and the lid 114 has been fully opened.
- the inner shell 116 holds a bundle 118 of cigarettes, which is still closed in the views according to Figure 7 (a) and Figure 7 (b) .
- the outer shell 112 has a front wall 120, which comprises a cutout 122 shaped as a slot 124 extending in parallel to the moving direction of the inner shell 116 plus an essentially circular widened area 126 at the lower end of the slot 124.
- Figure 7 (c) shows a schematic longitudinal section through parts of the outer shell 112 and the inner shell 116.
- the inner shell 116 comprises a front wall 128, at which an actuator 130 is attached.
- the actuator 130 has a cylindrical symmetry, includes a base 132 having a large diameter and a protrusion 134 having a small diameter, and is made from plastic material.
- the base 132 just fits into the widened area 126, whereas the protrusion 134 emerging from the base 132 can slide along the slot 124.
- the user moves the protrusion 134 in the downward direction, until the base 132 locks in the widened area 126 of the cutout 122.
- the cutout 122 additionally comprises a widened area at the upper end of the slot 124 so that the actuator 130 also locks the inner shell 116 in its advanced position.
- the inner shell 116 is biased to its advanced position by means of a spring provided between a bottom of the outer shell 112 and a bottom of the inner shell 116.
- a spring provided between a bottom of the outer shell 112 and a bottom of the inner shell 116.
