Abstract: A cigarette case includes a cigarette casing including a corner outlet; a double-layer hinged cover including a first slit proximate the outlet and a second slit proximate the adjacent other corner; and a spring biased ejection means within the cover and including a pivotal L-shaped ejector, a pivotal trigger, a pivot bar, a link moveable in the first slit and including an end pusher extending through the first slit, the link having the other end pivotably secured to one portion of the ejector, and a sliding member moveable in the second slit and pivotably secured to the other end of the pivot bar, the sliding member including a door extending through the second slit to block the outlet when the case is closed. Pivoting the trigger will pivot the pivot bar to move the sliding member and the link to cause the pusher to eject a cigarette from the outlet.

Abstract: A cigarette package includes a hinged cover including two opposite projections on front and rear walls respectively, a fixed inner casing including an oblique opening facing the hinge, a first shoulder at a lower edge of each of front and rear walls thereof, and two opposite cavities on the front and rear walls thereof respectively, a sliding cigarette insert block in the casing and including a hook extending from an underside, and a pivot mechanism secured to the cover and including a bottom plate connected to the hinge and extending into a space defined by the hook and the cigarette insert block, and a second shoulder at a top edge of each of front and rear walls thereof. Pivoting the cover to disengage the projections with the cavities will pivot the bottom plate to move the cigarette insert block upward until tabs of the second shoulders contact the first shoulders.
