Description
Recipiente de tapa articulada Articulated lid container
5 La presente invenci6n se refiere a un recipiente de tapa articulada nuevo que se puede aplicar en particular como recipiente para articulos de fumar alargados, como por ejemplo cigarrillos. Es conocido empaquetar articulos de fumar alargados y otros productos de consumo en recipientes formados a partir de preformas laminares plegadas. Los articulos de fumar alargados, tales como cigarrillos y puros, se venden normalmente en paquetes de tapa articulada que tienen una porci6n de caja para alojar los articulos de fumar y una porci6n de tapa conectada a la porci6n de caja en torno una linea de articulaci6n que se extiende a traves de la pared trasera del recipiente. Tales paquetes son construidos tipicamente a partir de preformas de cart6n laminares de una pieza. En uso, la porci6n de tapa es pivotada en torno a la linea de articulaci6n para abrir el paquete y asi obtener acceso a los articulos de fumar contenidos en la porci6n de caja. 5 The present invention relates to a new articulated lid container that can be applied in particular as a container for elongated smoking articles, such as cigarettes. It is known to pack elongated smoking articles and other consumer products in containers formed from folded laminar preforms. Elongated smoking articles, such as cigarettes and cigars, are normally sold in articulated lid packages that have a box portion to house smoking articles and a lid portion connected to the box portion around an articulation line that It extends through the back wall of the container. Such packages are typically constructed from one-piece laminar cardboard preforms. In use, the lid portion is pivoted around the articulation line to open the package and thus gain access to the smoking articles contained in the box portion.
15 Graficos y texto son aplicados tipicamente al exterior del paquete de los productos de consumo para comunicar informaci6n al consumidor. Sin embargo, los paquetes de cigarrillos con tapa articulada estandar son de tamano relativamente pequeno y tienen una zona superficial exterior visible limitada para mostrar tal informaci6n. Es conocido para los fabricantes intentar incrementar la cantidad de informaci6n comunicada al consumidor en los paquetes de cigarrillos de tapa articulada proporcionando superficies adicionales sobre las que puede ser impresa la informaci6n. Esto se ha conseguido, por ejemplo, incorporando paneles adicionales o cupones dentro del recipiente. Tales paneles y cupones pueden ser integrales al recipiente o alternativamente pueden ser incorporados por separado dentro del recipiente. 15 Graphics and text are typically applied outside the package of consumer products to communicate information to the consumer. However, the packets of cigarettes with standard articulated lid are of relatively small size and have a limited visible outer surface area to display such information. It is known for manufacturers to attempt to increase the amount of information communicated to the consumer in the articulated lid cigarette packages by providing additional surfaces on which the information can be printed. This has been achieved, for example, by incorporating additional panels or coupons into the container. Such panels and coupons can be integral to the container or alternatively they can be incorporated separately into the container.
25 Se ha propuesto tambien proporcionar paquetes con tapa articulada para articulos de fumar que tengan una zona superficial interna incrementada para la impresi6n de indicaciones y graficos. Por ejemplo, el documento WOA03/078274 describe un paquete de tapa articulada para articulos de fumar en el que esta prevista una zona superficial interna incrementada por medio de un marco interior y alternativa o adicionalmente, por medio de una superficie que da al interior de la pared frontal de la tapa. El documento DE 1054373 describe un paquete de tapa articulada que tiene las caracteristicas del preambulo de la reivindicaci6n 1, en el que la pieza de pared de la tapa tiene un sector incrementado de manera que se solapa con la pared frontal de la caja en la posici6n cerrada de la tapa. El documento US 4923059 describe tambien un paquete de tapa articulada con una pared frontal de tapa de altura incrementada. El documento US 6527 166 describe un paquete de tapa articulada que tiene un corte en la pared frontal de la caja para que la pared frontal del marco interior sea visible en la posici6n cerrada de la tapa. 25 It has also been proposed to provide packages with an articulated lid for smoking articles that have an increased internal surface area for printing indications and graphics. For example, document WOA03 / 078274 describes an articulated lid package for smoking articles in which an internal surface area is provided increased by means of an inner frame and alternatively or additionally, by means of a surface that gives the interior of front wall of the lid. Document DE 1054373 describes an articulated lid package having the characteristics of the preamble of claim 1, wherein the wall piece of the lid has an increased sector so that it overlaps with the front wall of the box in position. closed the lid. Document US 4923059 also describes an articulated lid package with an enlarged lid front wall. US 6527 166 describes an articulated lid package having a cut in the front wall of the box so that the front wall of the inner frame is visible in the closed position of the lid.
35 Seria deseable proporcionar un recipiente de tapa articulada para articulos de fumar que tenga una zona superficial interna para mostrar la informaci6n al consumidor mayor que los paquetes de cigarrillos de tapa articulada tipicos sin incrementar sustancialmente el tamano global del recipiente, o la cantidad de material necesaria para fabricarlo. Ademas seria deseable proporcionar un recipiente de tapa articulada para articulos de fumar que tenga un espacio mayor no interrumpido para mostrar la informaci6n al consumidor en la porci6n de tapa del recipiente. Seria tambien deseable proporcionar tal recipiente de tapa articulada sin comprometer la resistencia o rigidez del recipiente. Seria ademas deseable proporcionar un recipiente de tapa articulada nuevo que tenga una mayor zona superficial interna pero que pueda ser producido con minimas o ninguna modificaci6n a la maquinaria de empaquetado existen35 It would be desirable to provide an articulated lid container for smoking articles having an internal surface area to show information to the consumer greater than typical articulated lid cigarette packages without substantially increasing the overall size of the container, or the amount of material needed. to make it It would also be desirable to provide an articulated lid container for smoking articles that has a larger uninterrupted space to display information to the consumer in the lid portion of the container. It would also be desirable to provide such an articulated lid container without compromising the strength or rigidity of the container. It would also be desirable to provide a new articulated lid container that has a larger internal surface area but that can be produced with minimal or no modification to the packaging machinery.
45 te. Segun la presente invenci6n se preve un recipiente que tiene una pared frontal, una pared trasera y paredes laterales opuestas que se extienden entremedias, comprendiendo el recipiente: una porci6n de caja y una porci6n de tapa articulada a la porci6n de caja a lo largo de una linea de articulaci6n que se extiende a traves de la pared trasera del recipiente, en el que en cada pared lateral del recipiente, el angulo C entre el borde delantero de la pared lateral de la porci6n de tapa y el borde inferior de la misma es mayor que el angulo agudo 8 definido entre el borde trasero de la pared lateral y una linea recta que se extiende entre un primer punto ("punto A") donde la linea de articulaci6n se encuentra con la pared lateral y un segundo punto ("punto B") donde el borde superior de una pared frontal de la porci6n de caja se encuentra con la pared lateral. Cuando el recipiente esta cerrado los bordes libres de la porci6n 45 te. According to the present invention, a container is provided having a front wall, a rear wall and opposite side walls extending in between, the container comprising: a box portion and an articulated lid portion to the box portion along a articulation line that extends through the rear wall of the container, in which on each side wall of the container, the angle C between the leading edge of the side wall of the lid portion and the bottom edge thereof is greater that the acute angle 8 defined between the rear edge of the side wall and a straight line extending between a first point ("point A") where the articulation line meets the side wall and a second point ("point B ") where the upper edge of a front wall of the box portion meets the side wall. When the container is closed the free edges of the portion
55 de tapa son adyacentes a los bordes libres de la porci6n de caja, de manera que la linea de apoyo que se extiende entre el primer punto A y el segundo punto B comprende una primera porci6n lineal que se extiende entre el borde delantero y el borde trasero opuesto de la pared lateral y una segunda porci6n lineal que se extiende a lo largo del borde delantero de la pared lateral del recipiente, desde el segundo punto B al punto donde la primera porci6n lineal se encuentra con la pared frontal del recipiente. Los recipientes segun la invenci6n se pueden aplicar en particular en los paquetes de articulos de fumar, como por ejemplo cigarrillos. Preferiblemente el angulo C es al menos 10 grados mayor que el angulo 8, mas preferiblemente al menos 15 graThe lid 55 are adjacent to the free edges of the box portion, so that the support line that extends between the first point A and the second point B comprises a first linear portion that extends between the leading edge and the edge opposite rear of the side wall and a second linear portion that extends along the leading edge of the side wall of the container, from the second point B to the point where the first linear portion meets the front wall of the container. The containers according to the invention can be applied in particular to packages of smoking articles, such as cigarettes. Preferably angle C is at least 10 degrees greater than angle 8, more preferably at least 15 gra
65 dos. Preferiblemente, el angulo C esta entre 45 grados y 90 grados, mas preferiblemente entre 60 grados y 90 grados. 65 two. Preferably, the angle C is between 45 degrees and 90 degrees, more preferably between 60 degrees and 90 degrees.
Preferiblemente, el angulo 8 es menor de 60 grados, mas preferiblemente esta entre 35 grados y 60 grados y de forma particularmente preferida esta entre 35 grados y 45 grados. Preferably, angle 8 is less than 60 degrees, more preferably it is between 35 degrees and 60 degrees and particularly preferably it is between 35 degrees and 45 degrees.
Los terminos "frontal", "trasero", "superior", "inferior", "lateral" y otros terminos usados para describir posiciones relativas de los componentes de recipientes segun la invenci6n se refieren al recipiente en una posici6n vertical. Cuando el recipiente en la posici6n vertical esta abierto, los articulos de fumar contenidos en la porci6n de caja pueden ser retirados desde el extremo superior del recipiente. The terms "front", "rear", "top", "bottom", "side" and other terms used to describe relative positions of the container components according to the invention refer to the container in a vertical position. When the container in the vertical position is open, the smoking articles contained in the box portion can be removed from the upper end of the container.
El termino "linea de articulaci6n" se refiere a una linea en torno a la cual la porci6n de tapa puede ser pivotada para abrir el recipiente. Una linea de articulaci6n puede ser por ejemplo una linea de pliegue o una linea marcada en el panel que forma la pared trasera del recipiente. Alternativamente, una linea de articulaci6n puede ser una linea de pliegue o una linea marcada en una pieza de material que une la pared trasera de la porci6n de tapa a la pared trasera de la porci6n de caja. Tal pieza de material puede ser, por ejemplo, una etiqueta que este fijada de forma permanente o separable a la pared trasera de la porci6n de tapa y la pared trasera de la porci6n de caja. Preferiblemente, la linea de articulaci6n esta posicionada a lo largo de la pared trasera o lateral del recipiente, a un nivel por debajo de su borde superior. The term "articulation line" refers to a line around which the lid portion can be pivoted to open the container. An articulation line can be for example a fold line or a line marked on the panel that forms the rear wall of the container. Alternatively, an articulation line may be a fold line or a line marked on a piece of material that joins the rear wall of the lid portion to the rear wall of the box portion. Such a piece of material can be, for example, a label that is permanently or detachably attached to the rear wall of the lid portion and the rear wall of the box portion. Preferably, the articulation line is positioned along the rear or side wall of the container, at a level below its upper edge.
El termino "lineal" es usado en esta memoria para describir un linea sustancialmente recta. The term "linear" is used herein to describe a substantially straight line.
Tipicamente, en un paquete de cigarrillos de tapa articulada estandar, la linea recta que se extiende entre el punto A y el punto B, como se defini6 antes, coincide con la linea recta de apoyo en la pared lateral del recipiente a lo largo de la cual los bordes inferiores de las paredes laterales de la porci6n de tapa se apoyan en los bordes superiores de las paredes laterales de la porci6n de caja. La linea de apoyo forma, por tanto, un angulo 8 respecto al borde trasero de la pared lateral del recipiente. En un paquete de cigarrillos de tapa articulada tipico, el angulo 8 es de aproximadamente 60 grados. Typically, in a standard articulated lid cigarette pack, the straight line that extends between point A and point B, as defined above, coincides with the straight line of support on the side wall of the container along the which the lower edges of the side walls of the lid portion rest on the upper edges of the side walls of the box portion. The support line therefore forms an angle 8 with respect to the rear edge of the side wall of the container. In a typical articulated lid cigarette pack, angle 8 is approximately 60 degrees.
A lo largo de la presente memoria, el termino "linea de apoyo" es usado para describir la linea a lo largo de la cual los bordes libres de las paredes de la porci6n de tapa de un recipiente segun la presente invenci6n se apoyan en los bordes libres de las paredes de la porci6n de caja cuando el recipiente esta cerrado. Throughout the present specification, the term "support line" is used to describe the line along which the free edges of the walls of the lid portion of a container according to the present invention rest on the edges free from the walls of the box portion when the container is closed.
En un paquete de cigarrillos de tapa articulada tipico, el angulo 8 y el angulo C son sustancialmente iguales entre si, siendo ambos de aproximadamente 60 grados. Por el contrario, en los recipientes segun la invenci6n, el angulo C es mayor que el angulo 8, preferiblemente en al menos 10 grados. La diferencia en estos angulos se consigue por la provisi6n de una linea de apoyo con primeras y segundas porciones lineales entre el punto A y el punto B, extendiendose la primera y segunda porciones lineales con diferentes angulos entre si. La linea de apoyo puede incluir una o mas porciones lineales adicionales, como se describira despues. Por ejemplo, en ciertas realizaciones de la presente invenci6n, la linea de apoyo comprende ademas una tercera porci6n lineal que se extiende desde el primer punto A a lo largo del borde trasero de la pared lateral del recipiente. In a typical articulated lid cigarette pack, angle 8 and angle C are substantially equal to each other, both being approximately 60 degrees. On the contrary, in the containers according to the invention, angle C is greater than angle 8, preferably at least 10 degrees. The difference in these angles is achieved by the provision of a support line with first and second linear portions between point A and point B, extending the first and second linear portions with different angles to each other. The support line may include one or more additional linear portions, as will be described later. For example, in certain embodiments of the present invention, the support line further comprises a third linear portion that extends from the first point A along the rear edge of the side wall of the container.
Preferiblemente, en los recipientes segun la presente invenci6n el angulo 8 es menor de 60 grados y por tanto menor que el de un paquete con tapa articulada estandar. Si se disminuye el angulo 8 de los recipientes segun la invenci6n por debajo de 60 grados, es posible obtener recipientes con una porci6n de tapa que tenga una pared frontal mas larga de la esta prevista tipicamente en los paquetes de cigarrillos de tapa articulada. La "longitud" de la pared frontal es considerada como la altura vertical de la pared cuando el recipiente esta vertical y en la posici6n cerrada. Preferably, in the containers according to the present invention the angle 8 is less than 60 degrees and therefore less than that of a standard articulated lid package. If the angle 8 of the containers is decreased according to the invention below 60 degrees, it is possible to obtain containers with a lid portion having a longer front wall than is typically provided in articulated lid cigarette packages. The "length" of the front wall is considered as the vertical height of the wall when the container is vertical and in the closed position.
La zona superficial exterior de los recipientes segun la invenci6n puede no ser necesariamente mayor que la zona superficial exterior de un paquete de cigarrillos de tapa articulada tipico. Sin embargo, la zona superficial de la pared frontal de la porci6n de tapa de los recipientes segun la invenci6n es mayor que en el caso de un paquete de cigarrillos de tapa articulada tipico. Por tanto, una mayor zona superficial interna se hace visible para el consumidor cuando la porci6n de tapa esta abierta. Esta zona superficial interna incluye, por ejemplo, las superficies del marco interior (si existe), las superficies de cualquier otro embalaje de los articulos de fumar dentro del recipiente, y las superficies internas de la porci6n de tapa. Informaci6n adicional para el consumidor puede estar prevista en esta zona superficial interna adicional que se hace visible cuando se abre la porci6n de tapa. Ademas, la zona superficial de la cara frontal de la porci6n de tapa es mayor que la de un paquete de tapa articulada estandar. Por tanto, esta previsto en la porci6n de tapa un espacio no interrumpido mayor para la informaci6n al consumidor. The outer surface area of the containers according to the invention may not necessarily be larger than the outer surface area of a typical articulated lid cigarette pack. However, the surface area of the front wall of the lid portion of the containers according to the invention is larger than in the case of a typical articulated lid cigarette pack. Therefore, a larger internal surface area becomes visible to the consumer when the lid portion is open. This internal surface area includes, for example, the surfaces of the interior frame (if any), the surfaces of any other packaging of the smoking articles within the container, and the internal surfaces of the lid portion. Additional information for the consumer may be provided in this additional internal surface area that becomes visible when the lid portion is opened. In addition, the surface area of the front face of the lid portion is larger than that of a standard articulated lid package. Therefore, a larger uninterrupted space for consumer information is provided in the cover portion.
Preferiblemente, en los recipientes segun la presente invenci6n, la raz6n de la longitud de la pared frontal de la porci6n de tapa respecto a la longitud de la pared frontal de la porci6n de caja esta por encima de 35:65, que es la raz6n de estas longitudes en un paquete de cigarrillos de tapa articulada tipico. Preferably, in the containers according to the present invention, the ratio of the length of the front wall of the lid portion to the length of the front wall of the box portion is above 35:65, which is the ratio of these lengths in a typical articulated lid cigarette pack.
Aunque puede ser deseable maximizar el angulo 8 para aumentar la zona superficial interna visible de los recipientes segun la invenci6n, es tambien preferible si el angulo C es tan grande como sea posible. Esto es debido a que cuanto mayor sea el angulo C mas fuerte y mas duradera sera la porci6n inferior de las paredes laterales de la porci6n de tapa. Ademas, cuanto mayor sea el angulo C,mas rigida sera la secci6n inferior de la porci6n de tapa. Although it may be desirable to maximize angle 8 to increase the visible internal surface area of the containers according to the invention, it is also preferable if angle C is as large as possible. This is because the higher the angle C, the stronger and more durable the lower portion of the side walls of the lid portion will be. In addition, the greater the angle C, the more rigid the lower section of the lid portion will be.
Es particularmente preferible si el angulo a definido entre la linea de apoyo que se extiende a traves de la pared lateral del recipiente y el borde trasero de la pared lateral de la porci6n de caja del recipiente es tambien maximizada. Incrementando el angulo a , el incremento en la resistencia y la duraci6n descrito antes con referencia al angulo C se obtienen tambien para la porci6n superior de las paredes laterales de la porci6n de caja. Dependiendo de la forma de la linea de apoyo entre el punto A y el punto B, el angulo a puede ser el mismo o distinto del angulo C. It is particularly preferable if the angle a defined between the support line extending through the side wall of the container and the rear edge of the side wall of the container case portion is also maximized. By increasing the angle a, the increase in strength and duration described above with reference to angle C are also obtained for the upper portion of the side walls of the box portion. Depending on the shape of the support line between point A and point B, angle a can be the same or different from angle C.
La presente invenci6n proporciona recipientes en los que la forma de la linea de apoyo entre el punto A y el punto B puede ser variada de manera que el angulo 8 pueda mantenerse relativamente bajo, mientras que los angulos C y a pueden ser similares o mayores que los angulos correspondientes en los paquetes de tapa articulada conocidos. La resistencia y rigidez de los recipientes segun la invenci6n no tiene por tanto que verse comprometida para obtener la zona superficial interna mayor. The present invention provides containers in which the shape of the support line between point A and point B can be varied so that angle 8 can be kept relatively low, while angles C can already be similar or larger than Corresponding angles in known articulated lid packages. The strength and rigidity of the containers according to the invention does not therefore have to be compromised to obtain the greater internal surface area.
Si se desea, la esquina en la que la primera porci6n lineal se encuentra con la segunda porci6n lineal puede ser biselada o redondeada. If desired, the corner at which the first linear portion meets the second linear portion may be beveled or rounded.
Preferiblemente, cada pared lateral del recipiente esta formada por una pared interior y una pared exterior situada por encima. La linea de apoyo que se extiende a lo largo de la pared interior entre el punto A y el punto B puede ser diferente o la misma que la linea de apoyo que se extiende a lo largo de la pared exterior. Preferiblemente, la linea de apoyo que se extiende a lo largo de la pared interior entre el punto A y el punto B tiene la misma forma que la linea de apoyo que se extiende a lo largo de la pared exterior, pero esta desplazada verticalmente de ella. Un desplazamiento vertical puede ser empleado ventajosamente para reforzar la pared trasera de la porci6n de caja y la pared frontal de la porci6n de tapa. Preferably, each side wall of the container is formed by an inner wall and an outer wall located above. The support line that extends along the inner wall between point A and point B may be different or the same as the support line that extends along the outer wall. Preferably, the support line that extends along the inner wall between point A and point B has the same shape as the support line that extends along the outer wall, but is vertically offset from it. . A vertical offset can be advantageously used to reinforce the rear wall of the box portion and the front wall of the lid portion.
La linea de apoyo entre el borde inferior de la pared frontal de la porci6n de tapa y el borde superior de la pared frontal de la porci6n de caja es preferiblemente una linea recta sustancialmente horizontal. La pared frontal de la porci6n de caja puede incluir un corte en su borde superior para exponer el embalaje interior por debajo de el. Alternativa o adicionalmente, la pared frontal de la porci6n de tapa puede incluir un corte en su borde inferior. Donde esta previsto un corte, no habra tipicamente apoyo del borde inferior de la porci6n de tapa con el borde superior de la porci6n de caja y la linea de apoyo por tanto se rompera. La provisi6n de un corte puede ayudar al consumidor a abrir la porci6n de tapa. The support line between the lower edge of the front wall of the lid portion and the upper edge of the front wall of the box portion is preferably a straight line substantially horizontal. The front wall of the box portion may include a cut in its upper edge to expose the inner packaging below it. Alternatively or additionally, the front wall of the lid portion may include a cut at its bottom edge. Where a cut is provided, there will typically be no support of the lower edge of the lid portion with the upper edge of the box portion and the support line is therefore broken. The provision of a cut can help the consumer open the lid portion.
Preferiblemente, el recipiente comprende ademas un marco interior montado dentro de la porci6n de caja, extendiendose el marco interior por encima de los bordes superiores de al menos la pared frontal de la porci6n de caja del recipiente. El marco interior es por tanto visible para el consumidor cuando la porci6n de tapa esta abierta. La pared frontal del marco interior puede ser impresa con indicaciones que puede ser las mismas o diferentes de las indicaciones impresas en la pared frontal de la porci6n de caja. Alternativa o adicionalmente, la pared frontal del marco interior puede ser cortada con una forma distinta, por ejemplo, para reflejar la marca de los productos de consumo. Preferably, the container further comprises an inner frame mounted within the box portion, the inner frame extending above the upper edges of at least the front wall of the box portion of the container. The inner frame is therefore visible to the consumer when the lid portion is open. The front wall of the inner frame can be printed with indications that may be the same or different from the indications printed on the front wall of the box portion. Alternatively or additionally, the front wall of the inner frame can be cut in a different way, for example, to reflect the brand of consumer products.
Preferiblemente, la pared frontal del marco interior esta provista de una porci6n recortada en su borde superior. Esto permite un acceso mas c6modo a los productos de consumo dentro del recipiente sin reducir significativamente la zona superficial de la pared frontal del marco interior. Preferably, the front wall of the inner frame is provided with a portion cut out at its upper edge. This allows more comfortable access to consumer products inside the container without significantly reducing the surface area of the front wall of the inner frame.
Alternativa o adicionalmente al marco interior, los articulos de fumar dentro del recipiente pueden estar envueltos con una envoltura impresa que sea visible por encima del borde superior de la pared frontal de la porci6n de caja y la pared frontal del marco interior (si existe) cuando el recipiente esta abierto. Alternatively or additionally to the inner frame, the smoking articles inside the container may be wrapped with a printed envelope that is visible above the upper edge of the front wall of the box portion and the front wall of the inner frame (if any) when The container is open.
Ventajosamente es posible producir recipientes de acuerdo con la invenci6n usando la maquinaria existente que ha sido s6lo ligeramente modificada para tener en cuenta la diferente longitud de la cara frontal de la porci6n de tapa. El unico pliegue que se requiere que este en una posici6n diferente a un paquete de tapa articulada estandar es aquel a lo largo del borde inferior de la cara frontal de la porci6n de tapa. Advantageously it is possible to produce containers according to the invention using existing machinery that has been only slightly modified to take into account the different length of the front face of the lid portion. The only fold that is required to be in a position other than a standard articulated lid package is that along the bottom edge of the front face of the lid portion.
Los recipientes segun la invenci6n pueden tener una forma de paralelepipedo sustancialmente rectangular con bordes longitudinales en angulo recto y bordes transversales en angulorecto. Alternativamente, la porci6n de caja o la porci6n de tapa o ambas, la porci6n de caja y la porci6n de tapa, de los recipientes segun la invenci6n pueden comprender uno o mas bordes longitudinales redondeados, bordes transversales redondeados, bordes longitudinales biselados o bordes transversales biselados o una combinaci6n de ellos. Por ejemplo, marcando de forma conocida una preforma laminar a partir de la cual son erigidas la porci6n de caja y la porci6n de tapa del recipiente, puede ser producido un paquete de cigarrillos de "esquinas redondeadas" u otros articulos de fumar segun la invenci6n. The containers according to the invention can have a substantially rectangular parallelepiped shape with longitudinal edges at right angles and transverse edges at angulorectum. Alternatively, the box portion or the lid portion or both, the box portion and the lid portion of the containers according to the invention may comprise one or more rounded longitudinal edges, rounded transverse edges, bevelled longitudinal edges or bevelled transverse edges or a combination of them. For example, by marking in a known way a laminar preform from which the box portion and the lid portion of the container are erected, a package of "rounded corners" cigarettes or other smoking articles according to the invention can be produced.
El recipiente puede estar formado de cualesquiera materiales adecuados que incluyen, aunque sin limitarse a ellos, cart6n, cartulina, plastico, metal o sus combinaciones. Preferiblemente, el recipiente esta formado por una preforma laminar plegada unica, mas preferiblemente por una preforma de cart6n laminar plegado. Preferiblemente el cart6n tiene un peso de entre aproximadamente 100 gramos por metro cuadrado y aproximadamente 350 gramos por metro cuadrado. The container may be formed of any suitable materials that include, but are not limited to, cardboard, cardboard, plastic, metal or combinations thereof. Preferably, the container is formed by a single folded sheet preform, more preferably by a folded sheet cardboard preform. Preferably the carton has a weight of between approximately 100 grams per square meter and approximately 350 grams per square meter.
Los recipientes segun la invenci6n se emplean en particular como paquetes para articulos de fumar alargados como por ejemplo cigarrillos, puros o puritos. Se apreciara que eligiendo adecuadamente sus dimensiones, los recipientes segun la invenci6n pueden ser disenados para diferentes numeros de cigarrillos de tamanos convencionales, tamano grande, supergrande, fino o superfino. The containers according to the invention are used in particular as packages for elongated smoking articles such as cigarettes, cigars or cigars. It will be appreciated that by properly choosing their dimensions, the containers according to the invention can be designed for different numbers of cigarettes of conventional sizes, large, super-large, fine or superfine size.
Mediante una elecci6n apropiada de sus dimensiones, los recipientes segun la invenci6n pueden tambien estar disenados para contener numeros totales de articulos de fumar diferentes o diferentes disposiciones de articulos de fumar.

2a como linea acentuada. Las figuras 1a y 2a no estan dibujadas a escala. 2nd as accentuated line. Figures 1 and 2 are not drawn to scale.
El recipiente de tapa articulada 30 mostrado en la Fig. 1 es un paralelepipedo rectangular y comprende una porci6n de caja inferior 32 y una porci6n de tapa superior 34 que esta articulada a la porci6n de caja inferior 32 a lo largo de una linea de articulaci6n que se extiende sustancialmente horizontal a lo largo de la pared trasera del recipiente. El nivel de la linea de articulaci6n esta indicado en la Fig. 1 en el punto "A". The articulated lid container 30 shown in Fig. 1 is a rectangular parallelepiped and comprises a lower box portion 32 and an upper lid portion 34 that is articulated to the lower box portion 32 along an articulation line that extends substantially horizontal along the rear wall of the container. The level of the articulation line is indicated in Fig. 1 at point "A".
La porci6n de caja 32 tiene una pared frontal 36, una pared lateral izquierda 38, una pared lateral derecha, una pared trasera y una pared inferior. Las paredes laterales de la porci6n de caja se extienden sobre la pared frontal de la misma para que los bordes superiores libres de las paredes laterales esten desplazados respecto al borde superior libre de la pared frontal. The box portion 32 has a front wall 36, a left side wall 38, a right side wall, a rear wall and a bottom wall. The side walls of the box portion extend over the front wall thereof so that the free upper edges of the side walls are offset from the free upper edge of the front wall.
La porci6n de tapa 34 tiene una pared frontal 36a, una pared lateral izquierda 38a, una pared lateral derecha, una pared trasera y una pared superior. La pared frontal 36a de la porci6n de tapa 34 se extiende mas alla de las paredes laterales 38a de la misma de manera que el borde inferior de la pared frontal 36a esta desplazado de los bordes inferiores de las paredes laterales 38a. El desplazamiento corresponde al desplazamiento entre los bordes libres superiores de la pared frontal 36 y las paredes laterales 38 de la porci6n de caja 32. The lid portion 34 has a front wall 36a, a left side wall 38a, a right side wall, a rear wall and an upper wall. The front wall 36a of the cover portion 34 extends beyond the side walls 38a thereof so that the lower edge of the front wall 36a is offset from the lower edges of the side walls 38a. The offset corresponds to the offset between the upper free edges of the front wall 36 and the side walls 38 of the box portion 32.
Cuando el recipiente 30 esta cerrado, los bordes libres de las paredes de la porci6n de tapa 34 se apoyan en los bordes libres de las paredes correspondientes de la porci6n de caja 32 a lo largo de una linea de apoyo. En la posici6n cerrada, las paredes de la porci6n de tapa 34 forman, por tanto, extensiones de las paredes correspondientes de la porci6n de caja 32 para definir las paredes del recipiente 30. When the container 30 is closed, the free edges of the walls of the lid portion 34 rest on the free edges of the corresponding walls of the box portion 32 along a support line. In the closed position, the walls of the lid portion 34 thus form extensions of the corresponding walls of the box portion 32 to define the walls of the container 30.
Como se muestra en las figuras 1 y 1a, la linea de apoyo entre el punto A y el punto B consiste en dos porciones de linea recta conectadas. Como se defini6 antes, el punto A esta donde la linea de articulaci6n se encuentra con la As shown in Figures 1 and 1a, the support line between point A and point B consists of two connected straight line portions. As defined above, point A is where the articulation line meets the
pared lateral del recipiente y el punto B donde el borde superior de la pared frontal 36 de la porci6n de caja 32 se encuentra con la pared lateral. Una primera porci6n 42 se extiende desde el punto A a lo largo de la pared lateral del recipiente hasta su borde frontal, con un angulo de aproximadamente 60 grados respecto al borde trasero de la pared lateral. Este angulo corresponde al angulo a. Una segunda porci6n 44 se extiende desde el extremo de la primera porci6n 42 hacia abajo a lo largo del borde frontal de la pared lateral del recipiente hasta el punto B. El angulo 8 en el recipiente 10 es de aproximadamente 40 grados, mientras que el angulo C es de aproximadamente 60 grados. El angulo C es, por tanto, sustancialmente igual al angulo a. La linea de apoyo entre el punto A y el punto B se muestra acentuada en la Fig. 1a. side wall of the container and point B where the upper edge of the front wall 36 of the box portion 32 meets the side wall. A first portion 42 extends from point A along the side wall of the container to its front edge, at an angle of approximately 60 degrees from the rear edge of the side wall. This angle corresponds to the angle a. A second portion 44 extends from the end of the first portion 42 downward along the front edge of the side wall of the container to point B. The angle 8 in the container 10 is approximately 40 degrees, while the angle C is about 60 degrees. The angle C is therefore substantially equal to the angle a. The support line between point A and point B is accentuated in Fig. 1a.
La raz6n de la longitud de la pared frontal 36a de la porci6n de tapa respecto a la longitud de la pared frontal 36 de la porci6n de caja 32 es aproximadamente 40:60. La pared frontal 38a de la porci6n de tapa 34 es mas larga respecto a la longitud total del recipiente 30 que la pared frontal de la porci6n de tapa del paquete de cigarrillos de tapa articulada tipico. The ratio of the length of the front wall 36a of the lid portion to the length of the front wall 36 of the box portion 32 is approximately 40:60. The front wall 38a of the lid portion 34 is longer relative to the total length of the container 30 than the front wall of the lid portion of the typical articulated lid cigarette pack.
La porci6n de caja 32 y la porci6n de tapa 34 son conformadas a partir de una preforma de cart6n unica. Cada una de las paredes laterales opuestas de la porci6n de caja 32 y la porci6n de tapa 34 estan formadas por un panel interior y un panel exterior, fijado al panel interior. El panel interior de cada pared lateral es sustancialmente del mismo tamano y forma que el panel exterior respectivo. Como puede verse en la Fig. 1, los paneles estan superpuestos directamente, cada uno con sus bordes libres sustancialmente alineados, de manera que la pared interior es apenas visible. The box portion 32 and the lid portion 34 are formed from a single cardboard preform. Each of the opposite side walls of the box portion 32 and the lid portion 34 are formed by an inner panel and an outer panel, fixed to the inner panel. The inner panel of each side wall is substantially the same size and shape as the respective outer panel. As can be seen in Fig. 1, the panels are directly superimposed, each with its free edges substantially aligned, so that the inner wall is barely visible.
Un marco interior de cart6n 20 esta montado en la porci6n de caja 32 contra sus paredes interiores. El marco interior esta formado por una preforma de cart6n separada para la porci6n de caja 32 y para la porci6n de tapa 34 y tiene una pared frontal, una pared lateral izquierda y una pared lateral derecha. La pared frontal incluye un corte en su borde superior para que los articulos dentro del recipiente puedan ser retirados mas facilmente. Las paredes del marco interior 20 se extienden sobre los bordes superiores de las paredes frontal 36 y lateral 38 de la porci6n de caja dentro del espacio cubierto por la porci6n de tapa 34 cuando el recipiente 30 esta cerrado. La aplicaci6n de fricci6n entre el marco interior 20 y las paredes interiores de la porci6n de tapa 34 asegura que la porci6n de tapa 34 permanece en la posici6n cerrada hasta que es aplicada una fuerza positiva para abrir el recipiente pivotando la porci6n de tapa 34 en torno a la linea de articulaci6n. La aplicaci6n de fricci6n puede ser reforzada por la previsi6n de medios de retenci6n en el marco interior 20 que se aplican a las paredes interiores de la porci6n de tapa 34. An inner cardboard frame 20 is mounted in the box portion 32 against its inner walls. The inner frame is formed by a separate cardboard preform for the box portion 32 and for the lid portion 34 and has a front wall, a left side wall and a right side wall. The front wall includes a cut in its upper edge so that the items inside the container can be removed more easily. The walls of the inner frame 20 extend over the upper edges of the front and side walls 36 of the box portion within the space covered by the lid portion 34 when the container 30 is closed. The application of friction between the inner frame 20 and the inner walls of the lid portion 34 ensures that the lid portion 34 remains in the closed position until a positive force is applied to open the container by pivoting the lid portion 34 around to the articulation line. The application of friction can be reinforced by the provision of retaining means in the inner frame 20 that are applied to the inner walls of the lid portion 34.
El recipiente de tapa articulada 50 mostrado en la Fig. 2 es de una construcci6n similar a la mostrada en la Fig. 1 y descrita antes. Sin embargo, a diferencia del recipiente 30 mostrado en la Fig. 1, la linea de apoyo que se extiende entre los puntos A y B incluye tres porciones lineales en forma de Z, como se describira despues. Ademas, los paneles interiores y exteriores de las paredes laterales de la porci6n de tapa 54 y la porci6n de caja 52 son de diferente longitud. The articulated lid container 50 shown in Fig. 2 is of a construction similar to that shown in Fig. 1 and described above. However, unlike the container 30 shown in Fig. 1, the support line that extends between points A and B includes three linear Z-shaped portions, as will be described later. In addition, the inner and outer panels of the side walls of the lid portion 54 and the box portion 52 are of different length.
Como se muestra en la Fig. 2a, la linea de apoyo entre el punto A y el punto B consiste en tres porciones de linea recta conectadas. Una primera porci6n 72 se extiende desde un punto una pequena distancia por debajo del punto A a lo largo de la pared lateral del recipiente hasta su borde frontal, con un angulo de aproximadamente 60 grados respecto al borde trasero de la pared lateral. Este angulo corresponde al angulo a. Una segunda porci6n 74 se extiende desde el extremo de la primera porci6n 72 hacia abajo a lo largo del borde frontal de la pared lateral del recipiente al punto B. Una tercera porci6n 76 se extiende desde el extremo opuesto de la primera porci6n 72 hacia arriba a lo largo del borde trasero de la pared lateral del recipiente hasta el punto A. Las tres porciones lineales forman asi una linea de apoyo con forma de Z. El angulo 8 en el recipiente 50 es menor de 45 grados, mientras que el angulo C es de aproximadamente 60 grados. El angulo C es por tanto sustancialmente igual al angulo a. La linea de apoyo entre el punto A y el punto B se muestra acentuada en la Fig. 2a. As shown in Fig. 2a, the support line between point A and point B consists of three connected straight line portions. A first portion 72 extends from a point a short distance below point A along the side wall of the container to its front edge, at an angle of approximately 60 degrees from the rear edge of the side wall. This angle corresponds to the angle a. A second portion 74 extends from the end of the first portion 72 downward along the front edge of the side wall of the container to point B. A third portion 76 extends from the opposite end of the first portion 72 upwards to along the rear edge of the side wall of the container to point A. The three linear portions thus form a Z-shaped support line. The angle 8 in the container 50 is less than 45 degrees, while the angle C is of approximately 60 degrees. The angle C is therefore substantially equal to the angle a. The support line between point A and point B is accentuated in Fig. 2a.
Como puede verse en la Fig. 2, los paneles interiores 60 de las paredes laterales 58 de la porci6n de caja 52 se extienden por encima de los paneles exteriores 62 de la misma, de manera que los bordes superiores libres del panel interior 60 y el panel exterior 62 estan desplazados entre si. El borde superior libre del panel interior 60 es paralelo al borde superior libre del panel exterior 62 y se encuentra con la linea de articulaci6n en el borde trasero de la pared lateral del recipiente. La porci6n del panel interior 60 que se extiende sobre el panel exterior 62 refuerza la porci6n de la pared trasera de la porci6n de caja entre el borde superior libre del panel exterior 62 y la linea de articulaci6n. As can be seen in Fig. 2, the inner panels 60 of the side walls 58 of the box portion 52 extend above the outer panels 62 thereof, so that the free upper edges of the inner panel 60 and the outer panel 62 are offset from each other. The free upper edge of the inner panel 60 is parallel to the free upper edge of the outer panel 62 and meets the articulation line at the rear edge of the side wall of the container. The portion of the inner panel 60 extending over the outer panel 62 reinforces the portion of the rear wall of the box portion between the free upper edge of the outer panel 62 and the articulation line.
Reciprocamente, los paneles exteriores de las paredes laterales 58a de la porci6n de tapa 54 se extienden por debajo de sus paneles interiores, de manera que los bordes inferiores libres del panel interior y el panel exterior estan desplazados entre si. Los bordes inferiores libres del panel interior estan indicados por una linea de puntos en la Fig. 2. El desplazamiento en la porci6n de tapa 54 corresponde al desplazamiento en la porci6n de caja 52, de manera que cuando el recipiente 50 esta cerrado, los bordes inferiores de los paneles de cada pared lateral 58a de la porci6n de tapa se apoyan en los bordes superiores de los paneles correspondientes 60, 62 de las paredes laterales 58 de la porci6n de caja 52. Conversely, the outer panels of the side walls 58a of the cover portion 54 extend below their inner panels, so that the free bottom edges of the inner panel and the outer panel are offset from each other. The free bottom edges of the inner panel are indicated by a dotted line in Fig. 2. The displacement in the lid portion 54 corresponds to the displacement in the box portion 52, so that when the container 50 is closed, the edges The bottom panels of each side wall 58a of the cover portion rest on the upper edges of the corresponding panels 60, 62 of the side walls 58 of the box portion 52.
