  • a cigarette vendor often having wet and dirty hands, dispense loose cigarettes to the customers.
  • the resultant cigarette most often than not is stained or wet and dirty.
  • the consumer purchasing one or two cigarettes is not generally offered an empty cigarette pack to keep the loose cigarettes.
  • the consumer usually either holds the spare cigarette in his hands or places them in his shirt or pant pockets. In both cases, the cigarette tends to get damaged, bent and looses its aroma.
  • the Indian patent no. 218299 discloses a method for packaging at least an individual cigarette at regular intervals between two flexible sheets of laminate. Thereafter, both the sheets are sealed along their edges and in between the regularly spaced cigarettes to form flexible air tight packages.
  • This patent neither provides solution to the problem of breaking of the cigarette nor suggest for safe handling of the cigarette. Therefore, there is a need to provide such an innovative solution which can overcome above mentioned problems.
  • the main object of the present invention is to provide packaging for one or more cigarette while at the same time protecting the aroma of the cigarette and preventing damage to the cigarette.
  • Another object of the present invention is to provide a packaging for one or more cigarette that is economical and easy to use.

  • Like reference numerals refer to like parts throughout the description of several views of the drawings.
  • the package (10) comprises a flexible sleeve (100), a semi rigid / rigid casing (200) for holding one or more cigarettes (300) therein. The said casing is placed in the flexible sleeve (100).
  • the flexible sleeve (100) may be made by using various kind of films, laminate structures, single layer substrate, including but not limited to, fibrous substrate, multi-layer paper - polymer laminate, paper - Aluminum laminate, polymeric laminate, single or multilayer polymeric films, film - metal foil laminate, metalized film or laminate etc.
  • Fibrous substrate may include a natural fiber substrate like coated or uncoated paper, paperboard, and semi-rigid / rigid non-woven substrate.
  • single or multilayer polymeric films may include one of or combination of Polyethylene (PE), Biaxially-Oriented Polypropylene (BOPP) film, Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC) film, Cast Polypropylene (CPP) film, Biaxially-Oriented Polyethylene Terephthalate (BoPET), Polyamide (PA), Acrylic (Polymethyl methacrylate) (PMMA) and Ethylene Vinyl Acetate (EVA) or any other suitable polymer.

  • the casing (200) may made of fibrous material for example a natural fiber substrate like coated or uncoated board, semi-rigid / rigid non-woven, substrate.
  • the casing (200) may be made of a thick polymeric film or laminate typically having thickness of 300 micron or more
  • the casing (200) may be formed by creasing of fibrous or polymeric material at predetermined locations.
  • the casing (200) may be made by injection molding out of polymeric material or it can be a thermoformed tray.
  • the flexible sleeve (100) consists of a first panel or front panel (101) and a second panel or rear panel (102).
  • the first and second panels (101, 102) may be made of a single web.
  • the web is folded and the longitudinal edges of the web are sealed (104) along the length of the web thereby forming a flexible tube. Across sealing is also performed and the casing (200), holding the cigarettes (300) therein, is positioned inside the said flexible tube and another cross sealing makes the package.
  • the flexible sleeve (100) may be made of two separate webs sealed along their longitudinal edges (104), not shown in the figures. The said webs thereby form the first panel (101) and the second panel (102). The casing (200) along with cigarette (300) is placed in between the first and second panel (101, 102). Subsequently, the transverse edges of the flexible sleeve (100) are sealed (103a, 103b) so as to provide an airtight package (10) for the cigarette.
  • the flexible sleeve (100) is provided with a laser scoring or perforated line (105) around the cross-section of the package (10), at predetermined location near first end (103a) of the flexible sleeve (100).
  • This perforated line (105) facilitates easy tearing / opening of the package (10) from the first end (103a) leaving rest of the package (10) intact.
  • the user may open the package by pulling and tearing along the said perforated line (105) to access the cigarettes (300) placed in the package as shown in Figure 2.
  • the user may push out or pull out the casing (200) from the flexible sleeve (100), pick out the desired number(s) of the cigarette (300) and then push the casing (200) back into the flexible sleeve (100). It may be apparent by the figures that the flexible sleeve (100) encapsulates the casing (200) firmly providing minimal clearance surrounding the casing (200) so as to allow a firm sliding of the casing inside the package.
  • the package (10) may be provided with a punched hole or slot where a string can be inserted to hang the package.
  • the casing (200) for holding one or more cigarettes (300) is depicted.
  • the casing (200) comprises a surface (204) surrounded by at least two upwardly extended side walls i.e. left and right side walls (203a, 203b) and one or more end walls (201, 202) at first and second ends of the surface (204).
  • the end walls (201, 202) are upwardly extended (201a, 202a) and then folded (201b, 202b) from a predetermined height horizontally, facing each other as shown in the figure 3.
  • the end walls (201, 202) may be a combination of vertical portion (201a, 202a) and then folded portion (201b, 202b) which lies horizontally covering the cigarette (300) ends.
  • the side walls (203) support and restrict the movement of the cigarettes (300) from sides whereas the end walls (201, 202) support and hold the cigarettes (300) at their ends.
  • the horizontal fold (201b, 202b) at the ends restricts the movement of the cigarettes (300) to remain in one plane in the package (10).
  • the user may pull the first end wall (201) to pick the desired numbers of the cigarettes (300) from the casing (200).
  • the first end wall (201) may be pushed back to hold the remaining cigarettes in their predefined location. It may be apparent that the first end wall (201) also acts as protecting wall when the package (10) is open.
  • the first end wall (201) protects the cigarettes (300) from sliding out or coming into the direct contact to the environment outside the package (10). This may prevents the damage to the cigarette and retain the aroma flavour of the cigarettes up to certain extent.
  • the casing (200) depicted in the figures 3 and 4 is presented for mere an exemplary purpose.
  • the shape of the casing (200) may be modified with 'n' number of combinations such as surface with side walls (203a, 203b), surface with side walls and one or more end walls (201, 202) etc.
  • the structure of side walls (203a, 203b) and the end walls (201,202) are not limited to the structure as depicted in the figures 3 and 4.
  • the side wall (203) may be a vertical wall made from a single layer of material extending from the surface or may be made by folding the said layer outwardly or inwardly.
  • the side wall (203) may have a predetermined angle with surface (204) of the casing.
  • the side wall (203) may be a vertical wall and then folded horizontally etc.
