The groove pattern makes the corresponding lattice design (F) appear in the outer surface of the rounded edge (16 and 18).

Abstract: A cigarette package is provided with a box body and a tongue lid. The tongue lid includes a top wall and a tongue wherein the top wall closes an open end of the box body and the tongue overlies a front wall of the box body at the time the cigarette package is made, and connecting lugs in a pair joined to the opposite side edges of the tongue by side separation lines, respectively, and bonded to the opposite side faces of the box body, respectively. The side separation lines each has slits arranged at specified intervals and portions connecting the adjacent slits. The connecting portions are formed into fatigue joints by applying a load.

Abstract: A tongue-lid package of the present invention has an outer box (2).

The separation line (70) includes right- and left-side perforated lines (80, 82) that form a part of both sides of the to-be-cut-off portion (72). The perforated lines have a plurality of perforations (84) and intermediate portions (86) between the cuts (84). The intermediate portions (86) of the right- and left-side perforated lines are arranged asymmetrically to axis X of the to-be-cut-off portion (72).

Abstract: A cigarette package includes an inner wrapping body formed by folding an inner wrapper having a film material ply sandwiched between a paper ply and a heat seal material ply into a substantially cuboidal shape, including substantially-parallel two half-cut lines extending from a top face into an upper portion of a front face of an inner boxy body each formed of a cut penetrating through the paper ply into the film material ply, a cut line formed of a cut penetrating through an outer layer constituting an overlap on the front face of the inner box body, at an upper location. A heat-sealed part is formed to surround the cut line by heat-sealing inner and outer layers, wherein an outer side of the outer layer is bonded to an inner side of a front lid, in a section above the cut line within a region surrounded by the heat-sealed part.

Abstract: A hinge-lid package has a box body and a lid, the box body and the lid being formed from a blank (28). The blank (28) has strip-like notch arrays (16a and 18a) for making longitudinal edges of the box body and of the lid into round edges. The notch arrays (16a and 18a) have a large number of notch rows (19) formed only in the inner surface of the blank (28). The notch rows (19) are inclined in relation to the longitudinal direction of the blank (28), and are formed at intervals in a width direction of the notch arrays (16a and 18a).

Abstract: A cigarette package having an inner pack of a cigarette bundle, an inner box containing the inner pack in a sealed state, a hinge-lid outer box containing the inner box, a containing space secured between the outer box and the inner box by using an outer blank for the outer box, and a printed article in a folded state, which is disposed in the containing space.

Abstract: A soft package of filter cigarettes comprises an inner pack 10 of an almost rectangular parallelepiped and containing a cigarette bundle CB, and an envelope 12 of an almost rectangular parallelepiped and covering the inner pack 10 except for a top face 28 of the inner pack 10. The envelope 12 has slant edges 20 at the four corner edges extending along the longitudinal direction of the inner pack 10, and the slant edges 20 impart an octagonal cross section to the envelope 12.

Abstract: A cigarette package is provided with a box body (8) and a tongue lid (10). The tongue lid (10) includes a top wall (12) and a tongue (14) adapted such that the top wall closes an open end of the box body (8) and the tongue overlies a front wall (30) of the box body (8) at the time the cigarette package is made, and connecting lugs (20) in a pair joined to the opposite side edges of the tongue (14) by side separation lines (26), respectively, and bonded to the opposite side faces of the box body (8), respectively. The side separation lines (26) each has slits (59) arranged at specified intervals and portions connecting the adjacent slits (59). The connecting portions are formed into fatigue joins (60) by applying a load.

Abstract: A cigarette parcel has a sheet-like wrapping material (12) that wraps a group of cigarette packs. The wrapping material (12) includes a perforated line (22). The perforated line (22) extends to a lateral face of the cigarette parcel along a longitudinal direction of the parcel and has a central area C in the center. The central area C is formed as a fragile portion that can be ripped more easily than other areas of the perforated line.
