Cigarette box with hinged lid

The invention relates to a cigarette box with a hinged lid, two hinged walls, end walls and a base and a cover wall, as well as cutting patterns for the manufacture of the same.

In a common cigarette packet, the hinged lid is attached to one of the two wide sides of the box.

However, there are disadvantages associated with this, the lid can only be opened or closed with one hand after some difficulty, and it is also difficult to remove cigarettes from a full pack, as the cigarettes can only be removed from one side.

are sufficient and thus have an extremely small attack surface j

offer.

The invention is based on the task of creating a box that can be conveniently opened and closed with one hand.

Furthermore, the aim is to create a box that offers a larger surface area for cigarettes to attack when the box is full.

Various design options should also be achieved with regard to the shape of the dividing lines between the box body and the box lid.

Furthermore, a box should be created that is effective for advertising purposes due to its function and structure and that fits easily into the vending machines and other equipment.

The object is achieved according to the invention in that the Fold line in the rear front wall, while ]

the dividing lines between box body and box J

lid in the opposite front side and in the J

are arranged on both side walls. jj

This ensures that the box can be easily opened with a | hand and the lid with thumb or index finger |

can be opened without any problems.

This also ensures that access to

the cigarettes now from the two broad sides and the narrow front side.

Since the box, when closed, is completely identical in appearance and shape to a well-known cigarette folding box, apart from the dividing lines, all the features intended for cigarette folding boxes can be used. Thanks to the new and simple operation, the box is also effective for advertising.

According to a particularly preferred embodiment , the dividing lines on the broad sides of the box between the box body and the box lid are formed by straight or odd lines which advantageously run parallel to one another. This opens up the possibility of changing the shape of the box lid and box body in relation to the dividing lines by changing the cutting pattern during manufacture of the box, and thus also the shape of the box lid and box body.

According to another particularly preferred embodiment, on the rear end face, where the lid is connected to the box body by the fold line, there are raised areas, depressions or other grip-enhancing devices, such as grooves, sandpaper, etc., on the lid, which ensure that the opening finger has a better grip on the box lid.

It is more advantageous if the fold line is arranged below, at or above the level of the dividing line on the front face. This results in a large number of possible variations in terms of the size of the front and rear face of the lid.

According to a particularly preferred embodiment, a reinforcing section is arranged inside the box body

Advantageously, spacers are attached to the side inside the box left open for dispensing cigarettes or in the reinforcement section on the front face and the two broad sides, which prevent the cigarettes in the box from lying sideways in such a way that they make it difficult to close the box by blocking it.

Advantageously, the reinforcement section extends beyond the box body on the front side left open for cigarette dispensing so that the lid is secured over this edge in the manner of a snap closure.

Known closures can be arranged on the dividing line, which are to be understood as a further design and can make the described protrusion of the reinforcement section superfluous.
