Patent number: 12297034Abstract: The invention relates to a package of smoking articles comprising: a front wall; a rear wall; a bottom; two side walls; and at least a first support wall, which has a first group of seats for receiving, each one, a smoking article and is arranged in proximity to the front wall so as to be transversal to the front wall and to the rear wall. Each side wall has: a first portion proximal to the front wall; a second portion proximal to the rear wall; and a folding line arranged between the first portion and the second portion so as to allow the folding of the first portion on the second portion, or vice versa, causing the mutual distancing and approach of the front wall and of the rear wall.Type: GrantFiled: October 18, 2022Date of Patent: May 13, 2025Assignee: G.D SOCIETA' PER AZIONIInventors: Roberto Polloni, Luca Paradiso, Lorena D'Alfonso, Giuliano Gamberini

Patent number: 12263995Abstract: A pack comprising: at least one product; a blister provided with a pocket, which houses the at least one product and has an open end surrounded by a flat edge, and a closing tab, connected to the flat edge of the pocket to close the open end; and a support body, which houses the blister in a sliding manner to allow the blister to move relative to the support body between a closing position, in which the at least one product cannot be removed from the pocket, and an extraction position, in which the at least one product can be removed from the pocket. A connection end of the closing tab is fixed to the support body in a permanent and inseparable manner so that the sliding movement of the blister relative to the support body from the closing position to the extraction position causes a progressive separation of the closing tab from the flat edge of the pocket.Type: GrantFiled: August 10, 2021Date of Patent: April 1, 2025Assignee: G.D SOCIETA' PER AZIONIInventors: Lorena D'Alfonso, Roberto Polloni, Giuliano Gamberini

Rigid package of articles, in particular from smoke, shaped like a rod and its method of realization
Patent number: 11844373Abstract: Rigid pack for rod-shaped articles includes; a parallelepiped-shaped container, which houses the group of articles and has at least a lower wall, a front wall, a rear wall and two side walls; and a support system arranged in the container and has at least a first containing wall, which is parallel to the lower wall and is provided with a plurality of through holes, each engaged by a corresponding smoking article. The support system consists of a first articulated parallelogram having a frame glued to the rear wall of the container, two cranks and a connecting rod, which only rests against the front wall of the container, so that, while the rigid pack is being manufactured, the support system can be formed with the first articulated parallelogram in a flat condition and can subsequently be expanded by opening the first articulated parallelogram by rotation of both cranks.Type: GrantFiled: April 8, 2022Date of Patent: December 19, 2023Assignee: G.D SOCIETA' PER AZIONIInventors: Roberto Polloni, Luca Paradiso, Luca Lanzarini, Roberto Ghiotti, Giuliano Gamberini -

Patent number: 11772882Abstract: A pack for smoking articles having a group of smoking articles; an inner element with at least one wall; and a cup-shaped rigid outer container, housing the inner element and the group of smoking articles, and having an open upper end, a lower wall, oppositely disposed front and rear walls, and oppositely disposed side walls. A cup-shaped lid is hinged to the outer container to rotate, relative to the outer container, between open and closed positions to open and close the open upper end and has: an open lower end, an upper wall, oppositely disposed front and rear walls, and oppositely disposed side walls. The inner element is longitudinally shorter than the outer container coupled to the lid in the closed position and, keeping the lid in the closed position, can linearly slide inside the outer container along a longitudinal sliding direction, perpendicular to the outer container lower wall.Type: GrantFiled: February 6, 2020Date of Patent: October 3, 2023Assignee: G.D SOCIETA' PER AZIONIInventors: Roberto Polloni, Luca Paradiso, Luca Federici, Marco Ghini

Patent number: 11760559Abstract: A pack for smoking articles comprising: a group of smoking articles wrapped by an inner wrap and housed in a rigid outer container provided with a lid hinged to the outer container; a collar partially projecting from an open upper end; and a locking system comprising: a support element arranged in the outer container in contact with the collar and provided with two coupling wings, which project movably outwards to move closer or away from each other; and two first through openings, each obtained through a wall of the lid, houses at least a portion of a corresponding coupling wing, to activate the locking system, preventing the lid from rotating from the closed to the open position. An external action of the user releases the coupling wing to deactivate the locking system. The locking system can be reactivated by rotating the lid from the open position to the closed position.Type: GrantFiled: July 31, 2020Date of Patent: September 19, 2023Assignee: G.D SOCIETA' PER AZIONIInventors: Roberto Polloni, Luca Federici

Patent number: 11753235Abstract: A pack for smoking articles comprising: a group of smoking articles housed in an inner container; an outer container, housing on the inside and in a sliding manner, the inner container; and a locking system. The locking system comprises an abutment element integral with and arranged inside the outer container; a first wing integral with the inner container and movable relative thereto so as to be arranged in abutment against the abutment element when the inner container is in a closed position, thus preventing the inner container from sliding from the closed position to an open position; and a second wing obtained on and movable relative to the outer container so as to be pressed inwards and, hence, move the underlying first wing accordingly to release the first wing abutting against the abutment element and allow the inner container to slide from the closed position to the open position.Type: GrantFiled: July 31, 2020Date of Patent: September 12, 2023Assignee: G.D SOCIETA' PER AZIONIInventors: Roberto Polloni, Luca Paradiso, Luca Federici

Patent number: 11745935Abstract: A wrap for smoking articles, which encloses a group of smoking articles and has, at the top and at the front, a first extraction opening obtained through the wrap by means of a āUā-shaped through cut. The first extraction opening is normally closed by a reusable closing portion, which consists of the part of the wrap surrounded by the through cut and it can be lifted to free the first extraction opening and then lowered again to engage the first extraction opening. A support element is comprised, which is arranged inside the wrap at the first extraction opening, it is glued to the wrap at least by means of a re-stick glue, and it has a second extraction opening, which is smaller than the first extraction opening and it is entirely contained in the first extraction opening.Type: GrantFiled: July 1, 2020Date of Patent: September 5, 2023Assignee: G.D SOCIETA' PER AZIONIInventors: Stefano Salmi, Stefano Sarti, Roberto Polloni, Luca Federici
