  • FIG. 1 shows a wrapped bundle 1 of tobacco industry products, for example smoking articles.
  • the tobacco industry products are cigarettes.
  • the wrapped bundle 1 comprises a wrapper 47 comprising a flexible barrier material 2 that has been wrapped around a group of cigarettes, for example 20 cigarettes.
  • the wrapped bundle 1 may contain any number of cigarettes, for example 10 or 14 cigarettes.
  • the cigarettes are elongate cylindrical articles and are arranged in rows such that the overall shape of the wrapped bundle 1 is substantially cuboid, or parallelepiped.
  • the wrapped bundle 1 comprises a front face 3, a rear face 4, opposing side faces 5, 6 and opposing end faces 7, 8.
  • the wrapped bundles 1 shown in the accompanying drawings have square edges, but it will be appreciated that the edges may be rounded or otherwise shaped according to the shape of the contents of the wrapped bundle 1.
  • the barrier material 2 is provided with a starting cut 9 for forming an extraction opening (10, see FIG. 2).
  • the barrier material 2 is at least partially cut through, as shown in FIG. 1, in a 'U' shape on the front face 3 of the wrapped bundle 1.
  • the starting cut 9 comprises a first cut line 11 that extends across the wrapped bundle 1, in a direction between the opposing side faces 5, 6, and second and third cut lines 12, 13 that extend from the ends of the first cut line 11 towards an end face 7 of the wrapped bundle 1. Therefore, the starting cut 9 defines a tab of material 48 enclosed by the first, second and third cut lines 11, 12, 13.
  • an adhesive label 14 is adhered to the outside of the wrapped bundle 1 such that it covers the starting cut 9.
  • the adhesive label 14 is shown as transparent in FIG. 1.
  • the adhesive label 14 extends from the front face 3 of the wrapped bundle 1, over a front end edge 15 of the wrapped bundle 1, and onto the end face 7 of the wrapped bundle 1.
  • the adhesive label 14 may also extend over a rear end edge 16 of the wrapped bundle 1 onto the rear face 4 of the wrapped bundle 1.
  • the adhesive label 14 comprises a pull tab 17. When a user pulls the pull tab 17 of the adhesive label 14 in a direction away from the front face 3 of the wrapped bundle 1 the adhesive label 14 peels off the front face 3 of the wrapped bundle 1 and pulls on the tab of material 48 formed by the starting cut 9.
  • the barrier material 2 is torn from the ends of the second and third cut lines 12, 13 towards the end face 7 of the wrapped bundle 1 and the tears propagate in the front face 3 of the barrier material 2, over the front end edge 15 of the wrapped bundle 1 and across the end face 7 of the wrapped bundle 1.
  • the tears may propagate to a point on the end face 7 of the wrapped bundle 1, or to the rear end edge 16 of the wrapped bundle 1, or over the rear end edge 16 and onto the rear face 4 of the wrapped bundle 1.
  • the adhesive label 14 is peeled from the barrier material and a section (18, see FIG. 2) of the barrier material 2 is separated from the remainder of the barrier material 2 to form an extraction opening 10 in the wrapper 47. This separation occurs along a line of separation that is partially pre-defined by the starting cut 9, and then formed by the tears through the barrier material 2.
  • the separated section 18 of barrier material 2 is adhered to the adhesive label 14 so will be lifted with the adhesive label 14 on opening the wrapped bundle 1 by pulling the pull tab 17.
  • FIG. 2 shows the wrapped bundle 1 after the adhesive label 14 has been lifted to form the extraction opening 10.
  • the extraction opening 10 extends from the front face 3, over the front end edge 15 and into the end face 7 of the wrapped bundle 1.
  • the cigarettes 20 can be removed from the wrapped bundle 1 via the extraction opening 10 when the adhesive label 14 is in the lifted position shown in FIG. 2.
  • the adhesive label 14 may be adhered to the barrier material 2 at least partially with pressure sensitive adhesive. As shown in FIG. 2, the edges of the adhesive label 14 overlap the edges of the extraction opening 10 in the barrier material 2. In this example, the adhesive label 14 is wider than the starting cut 9 so that the edges of the adhesive label 14 are offset from the edges of the eventual extraction opening 10.
  • the adhesive label 14 comprises an overlapping region 21 that surrounds the extraction opening 10.
  • This overlapping region 21 may be provided with pressure sensitive adhesive so that the adhesive label 14 can be repositioned over the extraction opening 10 and the pressure sensitive adhesive will reattach the adhesive label 14 to the barrier material 2 and hold the adhesive label 14 in place over the extraction opening 10.
  • the adhesive label 14 and the separated section 18 of the barrier material 2 form a reusable cover flap for closing the extraction opening 10 after first opening.
  • the adhesive label 14 is provided with single-use adhesive in the overlapping region 21, so that the cover flap can be repositioned over the extraction opening 10 but the adhesive label 14 will not be reattached to the barrier material 2.
  • the single use adhesive acts to attach the adhesive label 14 to the barrier material 2 around the extraction opening 10 prior to first opening of the wrapped bundle 1. However, on first opening the adhesive is neutralised so that the adhesive label 14 can not be reattached around the extraction opening 10.
  • a part of the adhesive label 14 may be permanently adhered to the barrier material 2, so that the adhesive label 14 is retained on the wrapped bundle 1 and can not be completely removed.
  • the adhesive label 14 and separated section 18 of barrier material 2 may be removed completely from the wrapped bundle 1 on opening, for example by using one-use adhesive over the whole of the adhesive label 14, or by providing a tear-off line through the adhesive label 14.
  • FIG. 3 shows an inner frame 22 that may be provided to hold the cigarettes (20, see FIG. 2) within the wrapped bundle 1, as shown in FIG. 2.
  • the inner frame 22 comprises a front wall 23, a rear wall 24, opposing side walls 25, 26, a bottom wall 28 and a top wall 27, that correspond to the front face 3, rear face 4, opposing side faces 5, 6 and end faces 7, 8 of the wrapped bundle 1 once the inner frame 22 is wrapped in the wrapper 47 as shown in FIGS. 1 and 2.
  • the inner frame 22 also comprises an aperture 29 formed in the top wall 27 and front wall 23 of the inner frame 22 that is aligned with the above described extraction opening 10 after first opening of the wrapped bundle 1, as shown in FIG. 2.
  • the aperture 29 in the inner frame 22 extends partially across the top wall 27 and front wall 23 of the inner frame 22, i.e. across the region of the front end edge 15 of the wrapped bundle 1. Therefore, when the extraction opening 100 is formed it is aligned with the aperture 29 in the inner frame 22.
  • the inner frame 22 provides additional strength and supports the cigarettes 20 within the wrapped bundle 1.
  • the wrapper 47 is wrapped around a group of cigarettes 20 and sealably closed.
  • the cigarettes 20 may first be placed within an inner frame 22 to support and protect the cigarettes 20, and then the wrapper 47 can be wrapped around the inner frame 22 and group of cigarettes 20.
  • edges 30 of the wrapper 47 may be folded against the side faces 5, 6 of the wrapped bundle 1 to form overlapping flaps that are sealed to each other, for example by using adhesive, heat seal, induction seal or ultrasonic welding.
  • the wrapper 47 may be folded around the inner frame 22, and the edges 30, 31 of the wrapper 47 may be fin sealed to form a fin sealed wrapped bundle 1, such as that shown in FIG. 4.
  • cigarettes 20 can be placed into the inner frame 22, for example by folding the inner frame 22 around the group of cigarettes 20, and then the wrapper 47 can be wrapped around the inner frame 22 as shown. Edges 31 of the wrapper 47 can then be fin sealed to each other to form a first fin seal 32 that means the wrapper 47 is tubular around the inner frame 22. Then, the edges 30 of the tubular wrapper 47 can also be fin sealed together, to form second and third fin seals 33, as shown in FIG. 4.
  • the fin sealed bundle 1 has a first fin seal 32 extending across the rear face 4 of the wrapped bundle 1, and second and third fin seals 33 extending along the opposing side faces 5, 6 of the wrapped bundle.
  • the first fin seal 32 may be formed across the end face 8 of the wrapped bundle 1 which is opposite to the end face 7 having the adhesive label 14.
  • the second and third fin seals 33 can then be formed along the opposing side faces 5, 6 of the wrapped bundle 1.
  • a first fin seal may be formed across the front face 3 of the wrapped bundle 1, below the adhesive label 14.
  • the fin seals 32, 33 can be folded flat against the faces of the wrapped bundle 1.
  • the fin seals 32, 33 can be formed by pressing parts of the barrier material 2 together and applying heat and/or pressure and/or adhesive to join those parts of the barrier material 2. The heat may melt and fuse components of the barrier material 2 together. If the barrier material 2 included a conductive material, for example a metal foil layer, then induction sealing could be used to form the fin seals 32, 33.
  • a sealed wrapped bundle 1, such as that described with reference to FIGS. 1 to 6, will provide a hermetic seal capable of holding a pressure differential.
  • the interior of the wrapped bundle 1 may be provided with a pressure above or below atmospheric pressure.
  • the interior of the wrapped bundle 1 is provided with at least a partial vacuum.
  • the pressure within the wrapped bundle 1 is less than atmospheric pressure, for example less than 1 bar.
  • the pressure in the interior of the wrapped bundle 1 is less than 500 millibar, for example between 40 millibar and 300 millibar. In other examples, the pressure in the interior of the wrapped bundle 1 is less than 150 millibar, preferably about 80 millibar. However, it will be appreciated that the partial vacuum within the interior of the wrapped bundle 1 may be any value less than 1 bar. This reduced pressure within the wrapped bundle 1 can be provided by extracting air prior to forming the final seal, for example by carrying out the wrapping and sealing process described with reference to FIG. 5 or FIG. 6 in a low pressure environment.
  • the interior of the wrapped bundle 1 is provided with an increased pressure.
  • the pressure within the wrapped bundle 1 is higher than atmospheric pressure, i.e. greater than 1 bar.
  • the pressure within the wrapped bundle 1 may be between 1 bar and 2 bar, more specifically between 1.25 bar and 1.75 bar, preferably about 1.5 bar.
  • This increased pressure within the wrapped bundle 1 can be provided by adding air, or some other gas, or liquid, to the interior of the wrapped bundle 1 prior to forming the final seal.
  • the interior of the wrapped bundle 1 may be provided with a gas other than air, for example an inert gas, or a mixture of inert gasses, such as nitrogen, carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide, argon or other inert gas or a gas that does not react with the contents of the wrapped bundle 1.
  • a gas other than air for example an inert gas, or a mixture of inert gasses, such as nitrogen, carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide, argon or other inert gas or a gas that does not react with the contents of the wrapped bundle 1.
  • substances may be added to the interior of the wrapped bundle 1 as a liquid and allowed to evaporate within the wrapped bundle 1, for example to increase the pressure within the wrapped bundle 1. For example, if liquid nitrogen is added to the wrapped bundle 1 prior to forming the final seal then the pressure within the wrapped bundle 1 will increase as the liquid nitrogen evaporates.
  • the inner frame 22 helps protect the cigarettes 20 against the crushing force of the atmospheric pressure acting on the outside of the wrapped bundle 1.
  • the inner frame 22 holds the cigarettes 20 in place and provides support and protection.
  • the first cut line 11 of the starting cut 9 is angled with respect to the end face 7 of the wrapped bundle 1 and with respect to the pull tab 17.
  • the first part of the barrier material 2 to be opened is a restricted area on the line of separation defined by the first cut line 11 and the second cut line 12. Therefore, the initial opening in the barrier material 2 is a restricted opening.
  • the end of the first cut line 11 from which the second cut line 12 extends is closer to the pull tab 17 than the end of the first cut line 11 from which the third cut line 13 extends. Therefore, the starting cut 9 is arranged such that on pulling the pull tab 17 the separation of the barrier material 2 to form the extraction opening 10 is initiated at the vertex 35 of the first cut line 11 and the second cut line 12. Therefore, the wrapper 47 is first opened in a small, restricted area defined by the vertex 35. This provides a rush of air or other gasses either into or out of the wrapped bundle 1 because of the partial vacuum or increased pressure within the wrapped bundle 1. This rush of gas can create an audible sound that indicates the partial vacuum or increased pressure within the wrapped bundle 1 was intact prior to opening.
  • This sound is created because of the angled orientation of the starting cut 9 which provides an initially restricted opening when the line of separation is first initiated, before separation of the barrier material 2 continues to form the extraction opening (10, see FIG. 2).
  • the user may be able to feel the rush of gas on their fingers as the gas moves through the restricted opening.
  • the user will be able to detect the rush of gas through the restricted opening and therefore feedback is provided to the user, whether it be audible, tactile, visual or other sensory stimulation.
  • the wrapper 47 has an at least partially defined line along which the barrier material 2 is separated on pulling the pull tab 17.
  • the line is partially defined by the starting cut 9, which is arranged such that the separation of the barrier material 2 is initiated at a vertex 35 when the pull tab 17 is pulled.
  • the starting cut 9 can be a through-cut in the barrier material 2 and can be covered by the adhesive label 14, such that the adhesive label 14 provides a seal over the starting cut 9.
  • the barrier material 2 may be provided with lines of weakness 34, extending from the second and third cut lines 12, 13 of the starting cut 9 in a direction towards the end face 7, over the front end edge 15, and onto the end face 7 of the wrapped bundle 1.
  • the barrier material 2 is cut through along the length of the starting cut 9. Therefore, as the adhesive label 14 is pulled from the barrier material 2 tears will propagate from the starting cut 9 along the lines of weakness 34 to form an extraction opening 10 similar to that shown in FIG. 2.
  • the lines of weakness 34 mean that the user need apply less force to the adhesive label 14 to form the extraction opening 10.
  • the lines of weakness 34 guide the tears and so the tears are neater and straighter, resulting in a more uniform extraction opening 10.
  • the line of separation is pre-defined by the starting cut 9 and the lines of weakness 34, so that pulling on the pull tab 17 opens an extraction opening (10, see FIG. 2) along the line of separation.
  • the starting cut 9 is formed from a line of weakness in the barrier material 2. That is, rather than being cut through, the barrier material 2 is weakened along the starting cut 9, so that pulling on the adhesive label 14 will tear the starting cut 9 and form the extraction opening 10.
  • the barrier material 2 may optionally include lines of weakness 34 extending through the remainder of the front face 3 and onto the end face 7 of the wrapped bundle 1, as shown in FIG. 7.
  • the line of separation is pre-defined by lines of weakness that pre-define at least the starting cut 9.
  • the barrier material 2 is already cut through to define the entire extraction opening 10. That is, the line of separation that defines the extraction opening 10 is already cut through the barrier material 2 prior to first opening.
  • the adhesive label 14 can cover and seal this cut.
  • the wrapper 47 incorporates an at least partially defined line of separation along which the barrier material 2 is separated to form the extraction opening 10.
  • the line of separation is partially defined by a starting cut 9 and/ or by lines of weakness 34 in the barrier material 2 and/ or by through cuts.
  • the line along which the barrier material 2 is separated on opening the wrapped bundle 1 may be at least partially undefined, for example using tear lines as described with reference to FIG. 1.
  • the barrier material 2 may include one or more guides to guide the tear through the barrier material 2.
  • the barrier material may include spaced strengthened regions that are more difficult to tear, so that the tears are guided between these strengthened regions along a path of relative weakness.
  • the barrier material 2 may comprise a single layer of material.
  • the barrier material 2 may comprise a laminate material of two or more layers, for example three layers.
  • Each layer of the barrier material 2 may comprise a polymer, a metal foil, a metallised foil or any other flexible material suitable for use as packaging material.
  • the barrier material may comprise orientated polypropylene and/or a metal foil or metallised polymer.
  • any lines of weakness formed in the barrier material 2 may be formed by partially reducing the thickness of the barrier material 2 along a line. For example, a score or a partial cut may extend through between 20% and 80% of the thickness of the barrier material 2 to weaken the barrier material 2 along that line.
  • the barrier material 2 may be de-bossed along a line to reduce the thickness of the barrier material 2 along that line, for example the thickness of the barrier material 2 may be reduced by between 20% and 80%. This reduced thickness provides a line of weakness along which the barrier material 2 will tear when a user applies a force by pulling on the pull tab 17.
  • barrier material 2 is a two-ply laminate wrapper, at least one of the layers can be partially or fully reduced in thickness to provide a line of weakness.
  • the outermost layers of the barrier material 2 may be reduced in thickness from opposite sides of the barrier material 2.
