Abstract: The present invention relates to a container for rod-shaped consumer items, wherein a top wall (8) of the container comprises an opening (9), and the container further comprises a ledge (12), which is arranged below the opening. The top wall (8) is adapted to be movable in the vertical direction relative to the ledge (12), in between a lower position and an upper position. The container comprises an inner slide (3) and an outer shell (2), wherein the slide is vertically movably arranged in the shell, wherein the shell (3) comprises the ledge (12), and the slide (2) comprises the top wall (8) with the opening, and wherein the ledge protrudes through a cut-out (19) into the slide.

Abstract: A snuff holding and dispensing apparatus including a body member having a hollow interior divided into a holding area for holding a quantity of snuff and a dispensing area for receiving a plug of snuff from the quantity of snuff in the holding area, and a plunger movable between a load position for allowing the plug of snuff to pass from the holding area to the dispensing area and a discharge position for dispensing the plug of snuff through a discharge opening in the body member. The plunger coacts with passage structure between the holding and dispensing areas of the interior of the body member to form a sharp slicing mechanism to slice the plug of snuff from the quantity of snuff as the plunger moves from the load position to the discharge position.

Abstract: A cigarette package comprises a body 20. The body includes a plurality of bores 26 which are divided by a membrane 32 into a cigarette containing chamber 34 and a cigarette butt receiving chamber 36. Each chamber 34 contains an unsmoked cigarette 6. When a butt 10 is pushed into a butt receiving chamber 36, it engages and pushes an unsmoked cigarette 6 up past the top surface 28 of body 20 to allow that cigarette to be manually removed. This discourages littering of cigarette butts 10. Alternatively, body 20 can be formed so that each cigarette 6 is movable without having to store cigarette butt 10 in one of the chambers 36.
