Definitions
- the present invention relates to a resealable container for consumer goods with a resealable adhesive label with a plurality of formations.
- the invention further relates to a container comprising the resealable container.
- the container finds particular application as a container for elongate smoking articles, such as cigarettes.
- Smoking articles such as cigarettes and cigars are commonly packaged in rigid hinge-lid containers having a box and a lid connected to the box portion about a hinge line extending across the rear wall of the container.
- Such hinge-lid containers are typically constructed from one-piece laminar cardboard blanks. In use, the lid portion is pivoted about the hinge line to open the container and so gain access to a bundle of smoking articles housed in the box portion.
- the bundle of smoking articles housed in the box portion is typically wrapped in an inner liner of metallised paper, metal foil or other flexible sheet material.
- an inner liner of metallised paper, metal foil or other flexible sheet material.
- a consumer typically removes and discards a pre- perforated upper portion of the inner liner upon first opening the hinge-lid container.
- EP-A-0 944 539 discloses a hinge-lid pack of smoking articles in which the smoking articles are enclosed in a sealed enclosure of a layer of barrier material having an access aperture defined therein.
- the access aperture is covered by a cover layer with a permanently tacky surface, which can be engaged with the layer of barrier material to reseal the enclosure after first opening the aperture.
- a frame against which the cover layer may be pressed to ensure good resealing is provided in the sealed enclosure between the smoking articles and the layer of barrier material.
- a non-adhesive tab is provided at the bottom edge of the cover layer.
- WO-A-2008/142540 also discloses a hinge-lid pack of smoking articles in which the smoking articles are enclosed in an inner package with an extraction opening closed by a cover flap that is fixed to the inner package using non-dry re-stick adhesive applied to the underside of the cover flap.
- the inner or outer surface of a bottom tab of the cover layer is glued permanently and non-removably to an inner surface of the lid of the hinge-lid pack so that opening and closing the lid simultaneously also opens and closes the cover flap.
- a resealable container for consumer goods comprises a package for containing consumer goods.
- the package has an access opening through which consumer goods can be removed.
- the resealable container also comprises an adhesive label covering the access opening of the package and extending beyond the periphery of the access opening of the package.
- the adhesive label is at least partially releasably affixed to the package by a resealable adhesive provided on the inner surface of the label extending about at least a sealing portion of the package located at the periphery of the access opening. At least the sealing portion of the
- the 15 package is provided with a plurality of formations provided in a continuous repeating pattern and in spaced apart rows.
- the plurality of formations are adapted to reduce the effective area of the sealing portion.
- inner surface is used throughout the specification to refer to the surface of a component of the assembled container that is facing towards the interior of the container, for example towards the consumer goods, when the container is in the closed position.
- outer surface is used throughout the specification to refer to the surface of a
- the inner frame comprises an outer surface that is facing the outer housing of the container and an inner surface that is facing the inner package of the container.
- the inside or outside surface is not necessarily equivalent to a certain side of a blank used in assembly of the container. Depending on how the blank is folded around the consumer goods,
- Providing the sealing portion with a plurality of formations enables the peeling force to be controlled. Furthermore, providing the sealing portion with a plurality of formations may improve the tactile sensation for the user when opening the resealable container. In addition, providing
- the sealing portion with a plurality of formations may improve the quality of opening of the resealable container.
- the quality of opening may be improved by reducing the standard deviation of the peeling force over a plurality of opening operations. This is particularly advantageous in the embodiment of a sealed package, where the sealing and unsealing of the adhesive label works in conjunction with the opening and closing of a lid of a hinged lid container, such as for example described in WO-A-2008/142540. It has been found that, advantageously, despite the reduction of the effective sealing area, the moisture barrier 5 property of the sealing is maintained.
- the adhesive label provided for covering the access opening comprises a resealable adhesive, such that the label can be removed from the sealing portion of the package and reattached a number of times. This allows for repeated opening and closing of the package in order to access the consumer goods individually.
- the resealable adhesive on the adhesive i o label will preferably provide sufficient adhesion for the label to be reattached at least as many times as there are consumer goods within the package. This enables a consumer to open and reseal the package until the package is empty.

- adhesive may depend upon the material forming the sealing portion of the package to which the adhesive label is sealed and resealed during use.
- the adhesive label preferably comprises an adhesive free surface area, wherein this adhesive free surface area corresponds in size to the access opening in the package.
- the access opening of the package may be defined by one or more lines of weakness in
- the one or more lines of weakness define an access portion of the package.
- the package may be more securely sealed before the first opening of the resealable container. This may increase the storage life of the consumer goods contained within the resealable container.
- the adhesive label preferably comprises a further area of the inner surface of the
- the access portion of the package is preferably partially separated from the remainder of the package along the one or more lines of weakness on first opening of the adhesive label such that the access portion of the package remains attached to the remainder of the package during subsequent opening and closing of the adhesive label.
- 35 resealable adhesive provided on the first area of the inner surface of the adhesive label may extend about substantially the entire periphery of the access portion of the package.
- the adhesive label is permanently affixed to the package at least in an area of the resealable package. More preferably, the adhesive label is permanently affixed to the package by a connection portion extending about substantially the entire periphery of the adhesive label.
- the connection portion is connected to the adhesive label along an edge of the adhesive label adjacent an edge of the access portion.
- the connection edge is located towards the rear of the top side of the package.
- the plurality of spaced apart rows of formations may be substantially linear, or they may be substantially non-linear.
- the rows may comprise a combination of substantially linear rows, and substantially non-linear rows.
- the rows may alternate between substantially linear rows, and substantially non-linear rows.
- a plurality of substantially-linear rows may be provided with a single substantially non-linear row provided, for example, on the longitudinal mid-line of the package. Any other suitable combination of substantially linear rows and nonlinear rows is envisaged.
- the substantially non-linear rows may be wavy rows, or they may be zigzag rows.
- the substantially non-linear wavy rows may be substantially regular wave functions such as a sinusoidal wave.
- the substantially non-linear zigzag rows may be substantially regular zigzag wave functions, such as a triangle wave function or a sawtooth wave function.
- the plurality of formations are provided in a continuous repeating pattern.
- the plurality of formations may thus be more easily manufactured utilising conventional embossing or debossing machinery, or printing machinery.
- the continuous repeating pattern may provide the user with an improved tactile sensation when opening the resealable container.
- the plurality of formations is preferably regularly spaced apart over the sealing portion. As used herein, "regularly spaced apart” connotes that the distances between each formation, and its neighbouring formations, are substantially equal.
- a continuous repeating pattern may advantageously simplify production and ensure consistent sealing quality across a large number of subsequently produced resealable packages by eliminating the requirement for precise registration of the pattern with the boundaries of the opening in the resealable package.
- the tactile experience of the user may also be controlled.
- the sealing of the adhesive label to the package may be controlled by, for example, providing fewer formations substantially adjacent the access opening to locally increase the surface area of the sealing portion, and thus improve the sealing in close proximity to the access opening.
- the rows of formations may be parallel to the direction the adhesive label is peeled from the package.
- the rows may be perpendicular to the direction the adhesive label is peeled from the package.
- a combination of rows parallel to the direction the adhesive label is peeled, and rows perpendicular to the direction the adhesive label is peeled may be provided.
- the adhesive label is peeled from the package along the longitudinal direction, and thus where the rows of formations are parallel to the peeling direction they are parallel to the longitudinal axis of the package. Where the rows are perpendicular to the peeling direction they are parallel to the transverse axis of the package.
- the force required to peel the label from the package may be substantially constant during a peeling operation.
- the force required to peel the label from the package may alternate between a low and a high peeling force during a peeling operation.
- the force may be controlled by setting, for example, the spacing between the rows of formations. In this way, a zipper effect may be experienced by the user to provide the user with an improved tactile experience.
- providing the rows of formations perpendicular to the peeling direction may enable a sound to be generated as the adhesive label is peeled from the package. The sound is generated by the variation in the peeling force causing the adhesive label to vibrate.
- the sound generated can be varied as the adhesive label is peeled away from the package.
- a short tune such as a jingle, may be generated each time the adhesive label is peeled from the package.
- the plurality of formations may be provided on substantially the entire front wall of the package. Providing the plurality of formations on substantially the entire front wall of the package may allow the package to be manufactured more easily as the formations may be formed in a continuous process. Similarly, the plurality of formations may be provided on all of the walls of the package, and thus the package may be yet more easily manufactured.
- the formations may reduce the effective area of the sealing portion by at least about 10 percent, preferably at least about 15 percent, more preferably at least about 17 percent. In some embodiments, the formations may reduce the effective area of the sealing portion by up to about 25 percent.
- the formations reduce the effective area of the sealing portion by preventing sections of the sealing portion from contacting the adhesive label. This can be achieved for example by embossed structures or debossed structures in the surface of the package.
- debossed structure is used to refer to a structure that is formed into the direction of the inside of the package.
- embossed structure is used to refer to a structure that is formed into the direction of the outside of the package.
- the effective surface area is reduced as the debossed structure typically does not contribute to the peeling force as the adhesive of the adhesive layer only enters the debossed structure partially or not at all.
- the adhesive layer rests predominantly on the un-debossed surface such that the sealing and moisture retention properties of the seal are maintained.
- the effective surface area is reduced substantially to the peaks of the structures.
- the un-embossed "valleys" between the embossed structures do not significantly contribute to the peeling force, if at all.
- a combination of embossed structures and debossed structures may be desirable.
- the entire surface of the package may be embossed or debossed.
- the force required to peel the adhesive label from the package may be reduced, but the seal formed between the adhesive label and the package is not adversely affected. Reducing the force required to peel the adhesive label from the package allows the standard deviation of the peeling force during a peeling operation to be reduced. A reduction in i o the standard deviation of the peeling force has the effect, that the peeling operation of the adhesive layer from the package is more even.
- the reduction of the peeling force could be achieved by reducing the strength of the adhesive utilised on the adhesive label.
- the strength of the adhesive reduces which each peeling operation, and thus if the adhesive strength of the
- the adhesive label may not perform adequately after a number of peeling operations.
- reducing the effective area of the sealing portion of the package advantageously allows the adhesive strength to remain suitably high while reducing the force required peeling the adhesive label from the package.
- each formation may be circular, triangular, rectangular, or any other suitable shape of each formation.
- the shape of the formation is the shape of the two- dimensional projection at the surface of the package.
- the formation may have a three- dimensional form such as a hemisphere, a cone, a pyramid, a frustum, a cuboid, a trapezoidal prism, or any other suitable three-dimensional shape.
- the formations may be formed by embossing or debossing the package material.
- embossing or debossing is preferably conducted before the package is assembled, and as such substantially the entire package may be provided with the plurality of formations.
- the formations may be printed on the package. Where the formations are printed, the formations may be formed using lacquer.
- the package may comprise an inner frame, provided within the package, adapted to

- Figure 2 shows an example of the material 200 utilised for the sealing portion 1 16 of the resealable package 106.
- formations 202 are provided in the material.
- the formations are embossed or debossed into the material by embossing machinery before the material is formed into the resealable package.
- the formations 202 are pyramidal in shape, but may be any other suitable three-dimensional shape. In a preferred embodiment, the formations reduce the effective surface area of the sealing portion by about 17 percent.
- the formations 202 as provided in spaced apart rows. The orientation of the rows is described in further detail below.
- the embossed or debossed formations act to reduce the effective area of the sealing portion of the package by preventing the adhesive label from contacting the portion of the material within the formation. This has the effect of reducing the force required to peel the adhesive label away from the sealing portion. This enables the resealable adhesive utilised to seal the adhesive label to the package to have a conventional strength, but reduces the i o variation in the average force required to peel the adhesive label during one peeling operation.
- a resealable adhesive having a conventional strength ensures that the adhesive label remains suitably adhesive to seal the label even after a number of opening operations.
- Figures 3(a) and 3(b) show examples of a tactile pattern in the cross direction of peeling
- the material 300 shown in Figure 3(a) is provided with a plurality of formations in spaced apart rows as described above in relation to Figure 2. As indicated by the arrow 302, the direction of peeling is substantially parallel to the direction of the rows of formations. As the rows of formations are parallel to the direction of peeling, the force required to peel the adhesive label away from the sealing portion of the
- the material 304 for the sealing portion of the package is provided with a plurality of formations in spaced apart rows that are substantially
- the zipper effect is experienced by the user as an oscillating high to low force as the adhesive label is peeled from the package.
- the initial force is high due to the surface area in the region adjacent the peeling line of the adhesive label being continuous and uninterrupted by formations in the
- the peeling line is the imaginary line generated between the adhesive label and the resealable package; it extends across the width of the adhesive label. When the peeling line intersects the row of formations the peeling force is reduced due to the decrease in surface area of adhesive label being in contact with the resealable package. Once the peeling line passes over the row of formations the surface area of adhesive label being in contact with the
- 35 resealable package increases due to the absence of the formations. This process repeats each time a row of formations is encountered, and thus an oscillating peeling force is generated. By altering the space between the rows, and the width of each row, the frequency and amplitude of the oscillating peeling force can be tuned to provide the user with an improved tactile and potentially acoustic sensation.
