Abstract
Description
- The invention relates to a package for smoking articles, e.g., for cigarettes or cigarillos.
- In numerous designs, a package for smoking articles includes a shell comprising a front wall, a rear wall, two side walls and a bottom wall, the front wall and the rear wall having a larger area than the side walls, and a lid. The lid comprises a front wall having a straight upper edge and a lower edge, a rear wall, two side walls and a top wall and is adapted to close the top of the shell when it is in a closed state and to allow access to the interior of the shell when it is in an opened state. The rear wall of the lid is connected to the rear wall of the shell along a hinge line about which the lid can be swivelled for transition between the closed state and the opened state.
- Although many designs of the above kind include reasonable handling properties and have a good appearance, there is still a need for improvements.
- It is the object of the invention to provide a package for smoking articles which involves a very good handling and allows for an elegant design.
- This problem is solved by a package for smoking articles having the features of
claim 1. Advantageous embodiments of the invention follow from the dependent claims. - In the package according to the invention, the lower edge of the front wall of the lid has a non-straight shape, the distance between the lower edge and the upper edge being largest in the centre region of the lower edge. Moreover, the front wall of the shell and the front wall of the lid, in the closed state of the lid, form a continuous surface (except for the small gap separating the shell and the lid).
- The shape of the lower edge of the lid accentuates the zone where a user can grip the lid in order to open it. The total length of the lower edge of the lid is larger than in case of a conventional lid having a straight lower edge. This improves the recloseability of the lid. In particular, when the shell comprises an inner frame, which forms an abutment face for the lid in the region of the lower edge of the front wall of the lid, the lid can be easily closed and stays in the closed state. Due to the shape of the lid, the material of the lid experiences larger stresses than in a conventional lid, which contributes to the safe closure of the lid and also adds to the stability of the package as a whole.
- In advantageous embodiments of the invention, the lower edge of the front wall of the lid is convex-shaped along its full extension, for example polygon-shaped or comprising at least one bow-shaped section. Convex-shaped means that any straight line connecting two points on the lower edge of the front wall of the lid completely runs in an area belonging to the front wall of the lid including its lower edge. A bow-shaped section may extend over the full length of the lower edge of the front wall of the lid or over part of its length.
- The shape of the lower edge of the front wall of the lid can be symmetric with respect to its centre, wherein the centre region preferably runs in parallel to the upper edge of the front wall of the lid.
- In summary, in addition to an elegant appearance of the package provided by the shape of the front wall of the lid, the package according to the invention can be conveniently handled and allows for an easy access to its contents.
- When the shell of the package includes an inner frame, the inner frame, preferably, is provided with an access cut-out at the front wall of the shell, the access cut-out comprising a lower edge. In this case, the accessible (i.e. visible, when the lid is in its opened state) area of the inner frame below the lower edge of the access cut-out can provide space for additional communication in conjunction with print-registered inner frame, e.g. for a logo, etc. However, in another design, the access cut-out can be relatively large without providing such extra space. The lower edge of the access cut-out can essentially run in parallel to the lower edge of the front wall of the lid (when the lid is in its closed state).
- In advantageous embodiments of the invention, both side walls of the shell comprise two or three panels each, which are distinguished by one or two folding lines, respectively, formed in the respective side wall such that the shell has an hexagonal or octagonal cross-sectional shape in a plane in parallel to the bottom wall of the shell. The shape of the side walls of the lid is adapted to the shape of the side walls of the shell. This prism-like form of the package provides a very good impression.
- It is also possible that both side walls of the shell comprise one or two rounded edge regions each, which extend in parallel to the longitudinal axis of the package, wherein the shape of the side walls of the lid is adapted to the shape of the side walls of the shell.
- In addition to the shape of the lower edge of the front wall of the lid explained so far, the lower edges of the side walls of the lid can extend in a sloped manner. This particular shape of the lower edge of the lid adds to the advantageous properties of the package according to the invention.
- In the following, the package according to the invention is described in more detail by means of embodiments. The drawings show in

Figure 1 illustrates a first embodiment of a package for smoking articles. - The
package 1 is designed as a flip-top box and comprises ashell 10 and alid 20. In the embodiment, theshell 10 is folded from a cardboard blank and comprises afront wall 12, arear wall 14, twoside walls 16 and abottom wall 18. - The
lid 20 is folded from a cardboard blank as well and includes afront wall 22, a rear wall (not directly visible inFigure 1 ), twoside walls 26 and atop wall 28. At the rear side ofpackage 1, thelid 20 is swivelably connected to theshell 10 along ahinge line 30. By swivelling thelid 20 about thehinge line 30, thelid 20 can be transferred from a closed state, seeFigure 1(a) , to an opened state, seeFigure 1(b) . - The
front wall 22 oflid 20 comprises alower edge 32, which has a non-straight shape, see in particularFigure 1(c) . In the embodiment, thelower edge 32 is polygon-shaped and comprises a centre section orregion 34 and two side sections orregions 35 which extend up to thelongitudinal edges 36 ofpackage 1. Thecentre section 34 runs in parallel to theupper edge 38 of thefront wall 22 oflid 20. In the embodiment, thelower edge 32 is symmetric with respect to a longitudinal centre axis ofpackage 1. As is evident fromFigure 1 , the distance between thelower edge 32 and theupper edge 38 is largest in thecentre region 34 oflower edge 32.Lower edge 32 is shaped in a convex manner, i.e. any line connecting two points onlower edge 32 completely runs across an area of thefront wall 22 oflid 20 or on the line defining thelower edge 32. - As is best seen in
Figure 1(d) , eachside wall 26 of theshell 10 comprises threepanels folding lines package 1. In this way, thebottom wall 18 ofshell 10 has an octagonal shape. The shape of theside walls 26 oflid 20 is adapted to that shape such that any cross-section throughpackage 1 in parallel tobottom wall 18 has a generally octagonal form. - As shown in
Figure 1(b) , theshell 10 comprises aninner frame 50, which forms an abutment face for thelid 20 whenlid 20 is in the closed state. In the embodiment, theinner frame 50 is made from an extra cardboard blank and glued to the inner faces of thefront wall 12, therear wall 14 and theside walls 16 ofshell 10. Theinner frame 50 is provided with an access cut-out 52, which facilitates access to the contents ofpackage 1. In the embodiment according toFigure 1 , the access cut-out 52 is relatively large. Itslower edge 54 has a similar shape as astep line 56, seeFigure 1(b) . - When the
lid 20 is closed, itslower edge 32 rests adjacent tostep line 56, which has the same shape aslower edge 32. Thus, in the closed state of thelid 20, thefront wall 12 ofshell 10 and thefront wall 22 oflid 20 form a continuous surface. In this state, thelower edge 32 is supported by theinner frame 50. -
Figure 1(b) also shows acigarette block 57 wrapped in an aluminium foil which can easily be opened in order to take cigarettes frompackage 1 when thelid 20 is opened. - The lower edges 46 of the
side walls 26 oflid 20 run in a sloped manner, in continuation of the general direction of theside regions 35 of thelower edge 32 of thefront wall 22 oflid 20. In the embodiment, theinner frame 50 extends to theside walls 16 ofpackage 1 such that thestep line 56 is continued at theside walls 16 as well. -
Figure 2 displays a package 1', which is very similar topackage 1 ofFigure 1 . For this reason, the same reference numerals are used inFigures 1 and2 , with a few exceptions which indicate the differences between these embodiments: - As shown in
Figure 2(b) , an inner frame 50' has an access cut-out 52', which is smaller than access cut-out 52 inFigure 1 . The lower edge 54' of access cut-out 52' is more square-shaped and does not follow the course ofstep line 56. Betweenstep line 56 and lower edge 54', there is sufficient space for additional communication in conjunction with print-registered inner frame. In other words, this area can be provided with, e.g., a logo, advertising indicia, etc., which become striking when thelid 20 of package 1' is opened. -
Figures 3 to 6 illustrate further embodiments of a package in which the lower edge of the front wall of the lid has a non-straight shape. These embodiments generally differ from those ofFigures 1 and2 and from each other in the cross-sectional shape of the shell and the lid. Otherwise, they are very similar to the embodiments according toFigures 1 and2 and do not require a detailed explanation. - In the embodiment according to
Figure 3 , apackage 60 comprising ashell 62 and alid 64 has a generally rectangularcross-sectional shape 66. Thus, its side walls are plane and do not include folding lines. -
Package 70 according to the embodiment displayed inFigure 4 comprises ashell 72 andlid 74 with a hexagonalcross-sectional shape 76. The side walls of theshell 72 and thelid 74 comprise one folding line each which divides the side wall into a narrow panel joining the front wall at an acute angle and a wide panel being orthogonal to the rear wall ofshell 72 andlid 74. - In the embodiment of
Figure 5 , apackage 80 comprising ashell 82 and alid 84 includes side walls having two rounded edge regions each, as is evident from thecross-sectional shape 86. - In the embodiment according to
Figure 6 , apackage 90 comprising ashell 92 and alid 94 has across-sectional shape 96 including side walls with one rounded edge region each, which is located adjacent to the front wall ofshell 92 andlid 94. Moreover, the overall width ofpackage 90 is smaller than that ofpackage 80, seeFigures 6(c) and5(c) . - Generally, the lower edge of the front wall of the lid (
reference numeral 32 inFigure 1 ), which in the embodiments according toFigures 1 to 6 is designed as a polygon line including three sections, can also have quite different shapes, for example polygons with more (or less) than three sections, bow-like shapes and also shapes including bow-like sections and straight sections. These aspects and the general advantages of the package have already been considered in the introductory part.
