Definitions
- the invention relates to a pack for cigarettes - so-called cigarette rod -, in which a group of cigarette packs is surrounded by a pack cut from (thin) cardboard, paper or film to form a large front wall and rear wall as well as side walls and end walls.
- Such packs of cigarettes usually consist of ten cigarette packs, which are predominantly arranged in two rows.
- the cigarette packs are arranged in such a way that they lie against one another with a large front and back.
- the package cut completely surrounds the group of cigarette packs.
- the invention has for its object to improve such packs of packs for cigarettes in terms of design, in particular such that information about the content is conveyed.
- the container pack according to the invention is characterized in that a recess is formed in the region of the front wall and / or the rear wall and / or the side walls - window - through which at least one full width cigarette pack and / or one Front or bottom side is visible.
- the window which is preferably arranged according to the invention in the region of the front wall of the container blank, therefore gives a clear view of the contents, in particular the front of at least one cigarette packet.
- the window is preferably dimensioned such that the characteristic areas of the centrally positioned cigarette pack are recognizable from the outside, so that in particular the design of the pack is also recognizable.
- the window In the case of cigarette packs of the hinged-box / hinge-lid type, a (smaller) area of the front of a lid and a (larger) area of a box part can be seen, the window preferably extending over the width a pack and extends over about half the width of the adjacent packs.
- the window is preferably covered.
- a film cut is provided on the inside of the pack cut in the area of the window, which ensures a closed pack pack also in the area of the window.
- the window can be designed with regard to the contour so that it conveys information about the content, that is to say about the brand or design of the cigarette pack.
- 1 is a container pack for cigarettes in perspective view
- FIG. 4 shows a detail corresponding to FIG. 3 of another exemplary embodiment
- FIGS. 1 to 3 shows a spread blank for a pack of containers according to FIGS. 1 to 3,
- FIG. 6 shows a front view of a pack of containers with a special design of a window
- FIG. 7 shows a representation corresponding to FIG. 6 for a further embodiment of the pack.
- a pack group 10 of usually ten cigarette packs 11 is positioned as the contents of the pack in two pack rows 12, 13. The relative position is selected such that the cigarette packs of the two pack rows 12, 13 lie against one another with a front side 14 and a rear side 15.
- the pack group 10 is surrounded by a pack blank 16 to form the pack.
- This can consist of suitable packaging material, such as paper or film.
- the container blank 16 consists of (thin) cardboard.
- the package blank 16 surrounds the pack group 10 on all sides.
- the container blank 16 accordingly forms a large front wall 17, a correspondingly large rear wall 18, narrower, elongated side walls 19, 20 and end walls 21, 22.
- the latter consist of specially designed end wall tabs, namely inner tabs 23, 24 and an outer cover tab 25, which connects to the free, narrow sides of the front wall 17.
- the rear wall 18 is also provided with a connecting strip 26 which is connected to an inner edge strip of the side wall 19 by gluing.
- At least one large wall of the container blank 16, namely in particular the front wall 17, is provided with a window 27. It is a recess or punched out, which is positioned centrally in the rectangular front wall 17.
- the window 27 is elongated in accordance with the geometrical shape of the front wall 17.
- the window 27 is designed in a parallel ogram shape, namely with two parallel longitudinal edges 28 and obliquely oriented, also parallel Cross edges 29.
- the longitudinal edges 28 run parallel and preferably at equal distances from adjacent folded edges 30, 31 of the front wall 17.
- the window 27 shows a part of the package contents, namely the package group 10, from the outside.
- three middle, adjacent cigarette packs 11 can be seen, namely their front side 14.
- the window 27 is positioned such that, in the case of cigarette packs 11 of the hinged box type, as shown in the drawings, a front section of a cover 32 and one Box part 1 s 33 are recognizable and thus the most important details for identifying the type of pack or the brand.
- Lid 32 and box part 1 33 are limited in the mutually facing areas by a (lower) closing edge 34 of the cover and an (upper) counter-closing edge 35 of the box part 33.
- the two closing edges 34, 35 are partially arranged at a distance from one another, so that an opening or a window is formed on the front, in the area of which an inside collar 36 is exposed, that is to say can be seen from the outside.
- the design of the recess or the window of the individual folding box is complete through the window 27 with respect to a central cigarette pack 11 and partially, namely approximately half, with respect to neighboring cigarette packs 11. It can also be seen that, for example, the exemplary embodiment in FIGS. 1 and 2 is hinged boxes with upright round edges 37, 38.
- the window 27 can be open, particularly in the case of packagings with an outer covering 39 made of transparent film. If this is missing, the window 27 is expediently provided with a transparent inner cover, namely with a film cut 40 made of transparent material.
- the foil feed Cut 40 is fastened all around with an edge area on the front wall 17, for example by gluing.
- the window 27 can have different contours and dimensions, but the latter is dimensioned such that the dimensional stability of the pack is not impaired. 6 and 7, the geometric shape of the narrow, strip-shaped window 27 is adapted to the geometric shape of the front side 14 of the cigarette packet 11, namely to the shape of the recess or the window between the closing edges 34 and counter-closing edges 35. In the embodiment of FIG. 6, the closing edge 34 is rectilinear and the counter-closing edge of the box part 1 s 33 is angled. The window 27 has a corresponding contour.
- a field of view of the collar 36 delimited by the closing edges 34, 35 is specially designed. This shape can be found again in the window 27 of the package cut 16. The shape of the cigarette packet 11 can therefore be seen on the basis of the window 27 and thus by means of an external marking of the package cut 16.
