Description

The present invention relates to a cigarette box with a flap hinged independently from the upper hinged lid, its blanks and their configuration system.

The U.S. Pat. No. 3,011,630 discloses the cigarette box combined with matches, wherein the matches are exposed when the box is opened, and are protected by an overlaying cover or flap when the box is closed. In one embodiment of the invention the upper part of the box and its rear part, a bottom wall and side walls, as well as the cover protecting the matches, are formed as an individual cut-out or blank. The second blank includes an inner front wall lamina and an inner side wall lamina. The third blank includes an outer front wall lamina and intermediate side wall lamina. The outer front wall lamina holds the pack of matches, in such a way, that it forms a typical unit of matches attached to the outer surface. The second and third blanks are joined together, and the second blank protrudes over the upper edge of the third blank. These joined blanks form an insert, which closes the open front part of the main blank. The match unit is attached to the outer front wall and is covered by the cover for the matches.

From the polish patent application P 355833 is known the cigarette box and its blank. The box has a shape of rectangular prism and has the hinged lid. Said box includes a storage part intended to store the cigarettes and the hinged lid joined to the storage part by means of an articulated joint placed on the rear wall, wherein the front wall of the lid is longer than its rear wall, and the side walls of the lid are oblique. The box is characterized in that, the storage part is equipped with an additional inner front wall and the outer front wall of the storage part is hinged, whereas between the hinged front wall and the inner front wall there is an additional storage space. Matches are placed in the storage space. The hinged outer front wall has also a fixing substance along its edges. The edge of the hinged outer front wall is placed under the edge of the box lid. The edges of the inner side walls are attached to the inner front wall. The edges of the inner side walls and corner walls are attached to the inner front wall. The matches are attached to the hinged front wall. The matches are attached to the inner front wall.

From the polish patent application P 370152 is known the cigarette box with the hinged lid, which has the shape of the rectangular prism and includes the storage part intended to store the cigarettes. The hinged lid is joined to the storage part by means of the articulated joint placed on the rear wall, whereas the front wall of the lid is longer than its rear wall, and the side walls of the lid are oblique. Said storage part is equipped with an additional inner front wall and the outer front wall of the storage part is hinged, wherein between the hinged front wall and the inner front wall is formed an additional storage space, preferably for matches, a lighter or other objects. The end of the outer front wall is tapered and bended towards the interior of the box. The box is characterized in that, the inner front wall has two overpresses, placed one above the other, directed to the inside of the box, of which the lower overpress of the inner front wall forms the storage part, and the front wall is made of the same material as the box is made, or the front wall is made of transparent or semi-transparent material or it has the overpress (17) directed outwards and forming an additional storage space.

In the state of the art there is no box with an additional separate storage space that is opened independently from the upper hinged lid, which contains such objects like matches or lighter, that is uncomfortable in its use, risks in falling out or getting wet of the cigarettes during drawing out the object from the additional storage space. The aim of the invention is thus to obtain the cigarette box with the additional separate storage space that is opened independently from the upper hinged lid, which is arranged either on the front or the back of the box.

The new box and its variants give the user free access to the separate storage space and allow using its contents and/or information, e.g. health information, before opening the main upper lid to storage space with the cigarettes.

The present invention refers to the cigarette box and its variants, which includes the hinged lid—the upper cover, an outer flange resulting from the inner front wall, has the shape based on the rectangular prism and contains the storage part intended to store the cigarettes and the additional storage part arranged either on the front or the back of the box.

The cigarettes box includes the hinged lid joined to the storage part by means of an articulated joint placed on the rear wall, wherein the front wall of the lid is longer than its rear wall, whereas the side walls of the lid are oblique. Said storage part is provided with the additional inner blank with joined front wall forming the outer flange of the box and the outer front wall/the front lower flap of the storage part is hinged independently from the upper hinged lid, whereas between the independently hinged front wall/the front lower flap and the inner front wall there is the additional storage space advantageous to place an overprint or the objects, or the box includes the additional storage space formed on the rear part of the box with the lower rear flap that is opened independently from the upper hinged lid. Said independently hinged lower rear flap results from the inner front blank of the box with the additional lower front wall of the box, which is elongated and directed backwards. Thus, the inner front blank with the additional elongated lower front wall forms the outer flange of the box and/or results from the blank of the lower outer casing of the box lower wall, which is reversed and directed backwards and/or results from the doubled in the middle part blank of the outer casing of the box lower part and directed backwards.

The box with the lower front or rear flap, that is opened independently from the upper hinged lid is characterized in that, the inner front blank and its lower elongated wall does not have and/or has one or more overpresses, which subsequently form a visible outer flange of the box without hinging the lower flap or after the lower flap is hinged, independently whether the lower flap is placed on the front or on the rear of the box, and in that, the inner front wall of the front inner blank of the box does not have and/or has the additional lower wall attached directly to the bottom wall.

The box with the lower rare flap that is opened independently from the upper lid is characterized in that, the outer casing of the box middle rear wall does not have and/or has one or more overpresses, which consequently together with the independently opened lower rear flap resulting directly from inner front blank or the outer casing of the box, form the additional storage space. Advantageously, in the separate storage part arranged on the front or rear of the box, the overprint or the objects can be placed, and the access to this part is independent from the upper lid.

The box is formed by the joint configuration of two parts:

the outer casing of the box and the inner front blank of the box.

The box is characterized by a simple design based on the rectangular prism and by including separate additional storage space opened independently from the upper hinged lid which has additional function as an overprint and information carrier.

The configuration of the joints of particular variants of the box outer casing and particular variants of the box inner blank form the box with the additional storage space arranged on the rear or front.

The configuration of the joints of particular variants of the box outer casing and variant of the inner front wall/inner wings of the box form the box with the additional storage space arranged on the rear.
