Abstract: A slide and shell container includes an outer shell and an inner slide mounted within the outer shell. The outer shell and the inner slide are detachably connected to each other along one or more lines of weakness. Upon separation of the outer shell and inner slide along the one or more lines of weakness, the inner slide becomes moveable within the outer shell between a closed slide position and an open slide position. The two or more lines of weakness define an integral opening strip which is separable from the container in order to separate the outer shell and the inner slide.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a container for consumer goods. The container comprises a lid pivotable, about a hinge line extending across a back wall of the container, between a closed position and an open position. The container also comprises a box (102), having an opening, comprising at least one slit (108), the or each slit located at respective edges of a front wall of the box, extending from the opening. The lid (104) is mounted on the box (102) such that it coincides with the opening of the box whereby, in a closed position of the lid, the lid engages with the at least one slit (108) of the box to retain the lid in a closed position. The invention also extends to providing a single laminar blank for forming the aforementioned container.

The inner housing has an opening and is mounted within the outer shell for rotational movement relative thereto between a closed position, in which the opening is covered by the outer shell and an open position in which the opening is at least partially exposed. The inner housing is resiliently biased towards the closed position by the resilient member.

Abstract: A slide and shell container comprising a shell, and a slide, which is movable in the shell along a sliding path from a closed position to an open position, wherein in the closed position the interior of the container is inaccessible, and wherein in the open position the interior of the container is accessible. The shell comprises a guide slit, extending along the sliding path, wherein a guide means of the slide engages with the guide slit. Further, a single blank for forming a slide and a single blank for forming a guide means is disclosed.

Abstract: A slide and shell container for consumer goods includes an outer shell and an inner slide. The inner slide includes a box and a lid, which is hingedly connected to the box at a hinge. The inner slide is slidable within the outer shell between a closed position in which the lid is closed and an open position in which the lid is open. The lid includes a lid flap which is arranged between the inner slide and the outer shell such that an engagement of the lid flap and the outer shell is capable of opening the lid. The lid flap is capable of engaging with the outer shell during movement of the inner slide from the closed position to the open position. The lid also includes a top wall, a back wall, a first side wall and a second side wall. The first side wall is connected through a fold line to the back wall and is connected through a fold line to the top wall.

Abstract: A slide and shell container includes an outer shell having a first wall with an aperture provided therein; an inner slide slidable within the outer shell between a closed position in which the interior of the inner slide is inaccessible and an open position in which the interior of the inner slide is accessible; and a hinged flap connected to the inner slide that protrudes through the aperture in the first wall of the outer shell. The hinged flap is pivotable between a first position in which the flap rests against the first wall of the outer shell and a second position in which the flap is hinged outwardly from the first wall of the outer shell upon slidable movement of the inner slide between the closed position and the open position.

Abstract: A hinge-lid container includes a box portion and a lid portion hinged to the box portion. The box portion includes an integral first panel connected to the remainder of the container along a first hinge line and an integral second panel. The first panel in an initial position forms at least part of a wall of the box portion and the second panel in an initial position underlies the first panel. The first panel is defined in the wall of the box portion by at least one line of weakness in the initial position and is foldable about the first hinge line from the initial position to a second position in which it is hinged outwardly from the remainder of the container. The second panel is connected to the remainder of the container along a second hinge line. The box portion can include an integral third panel.
