Inner Compartment Slides Relative To Outer Patents (Class 206/91)
  • Patent number: 7572573
    Abstract: The present invention relates to maskless photolithography using a patterned light generator for creating 2-D and 3-D patterns on objects using etching and deposition techniques. In an embodiment, the patterned light generator uses a micromirror array to direct pattern light on a target object. In an alternate embodiment, the patterned light generator uses a plasma display device to generate and direct patterned light onto a target object. Specifically, the invention provides a maskless photolithography system and method for photo stimulated etching of objects in a liquid solution, patterning glass, and photoselective metal deposition. For photo stimulated etching of objects in a liquid solution, the invention provides a system and method for immersing a substrate in an etchant solution, exposing the immersed substrate to patterned light, and etching the substrate according to the pattern of incident light.

  • Patent number: 5878875
    Abstract: A cigarette container having a unitary, integral outer envelope utilizes a series of folds within discreet folding domains to form a lower cigarette containing portion and an upper flip top portion containing a match drawer cavity. A conventional inner insert is glued to the inner surface of the outer envelope to retain the cigarettes firmly but permit easy access thereto. A rectangular drawer for housing stick-type matches is provided which can be accessed from either side of the cigarette container. A striker surface is coated on one or more sides of the drawer as a convenience to left and right handed smokers.

  • Patent number: 4989728
    Abstract: The cigarette package unit is composed of an outer envelope defining a rectangular parallelepipedal volume similar to that of conventional cigarette packages and which contains an inner rectangular parallelepipedal compartment adapted for receiving the cigarettes. The outer envelope has side walls made of front and rear flaps shorter than a total height of the outer envelope and being connected to respective front and rear faces of the envelope while defining therebetween a rectangular cut-out. A hollow space is formed between the bottom of the outer envelope and the bottom of the inner compartment and in which is placed a match drawer containing a number of matches which is substantially equal to a number of cigarettes.
