[0035] As attached Figure 1 and 2 As shown, an embodiment of the present invention provides a flip-top paper box, in particular a paper box for accommodating cigarettes, which is formed by folding a continuous piece of paper material and has the characteristics of being simple and quick to manufacture. Specifically, the paper box comprises a box body 10 and a cover body 20. The box body 10 has an inner cavity 101 for accommodating cigarettes, ensuring the safety and integrity of the cigarettes during storage and carrying. The cover body 20 is connected to the box body 10 via a crease line, and has an open state and a closed state relative to the box body 10. The user can open or close the cover body 20 as needed to facilitate access to the cigarettes in the box, and can effectively prevent the intrusion of dust or other external substances. It can be explained that the crease line refers to the folded or bent area, and a mark can be pre-made on the paper material to clearly indicate the direction and position where the fold should be made.
[0036] The flip-top paper box provided by the present invention is formed by folding a continuous paper material, and the box body 10 and the cover body 20 are connected by a crease line. On the one hand, this design simplifies the production process, reduces the complexity of manual operation, reduces labor costs, and improves production efficiency. On the other hand, it provides good adaptability to mechanical automated production, so that the production line can carry out large-scale production more quickly and stably.
[0037] In some optional embodiments, the box body 10 includes a bottom 102 and sidewalls 103. One side of the bottom 102 is connected to the lid 20 via a crease line. The sidewalls 103 are arranged along the remaining side of the bottom 102 not connected to the lid 20 via a crease line. In one specific embodiment, the box body 10 is rectangular, and the sidewalls 103 include a first sidewall, a second sidewall, and a third sidewall. The first, second, and third sidewalls, along with the bottom 102, form an inner cavity 101 for accommodating cigarettes. The lid 20 is connected to the side opposite the first sidewall via a crease line, and the second and third sidewalls are arranged opposite each other.
[0038] In some optional embodiments, the two opposing side walls 103 each include a side wall body 1031 and a stopper 1032 connected to the side wall body 1031 via a crease line. The stopper 1032 is capable of covering and retaining cigarettes positioned near the side wall body 1031. In one specific embodiment, the box body 10 is rectangular, the cover 20 is connected to the side opposite the first side wall via a crease line, the second side wall and the third side wall are disposed opposite each other, and each includes a side wall body 1031 and a stopper 1032 connected to the side wall body 1031 via a crease line. The stopper 1032 is capable of covering and retaining cigarettes positioned near the side wall body 1031. It should be further noted that the stopper 1032 is rotatable relative to the side wall body 1031 via the crease line, facilitating the removal and placement of cigarettes.
[0039] In some optional embodiments, the length of the stopper 1032 is rationally designed. Specifically, the length of the stopper 1032 matches the length of the cigarette. This matching relationship ensures that the stopper 1032 can completely cover the end of the cigarette, thereby effectively preventing the cigarette from moving inside the box body 10. In addition, the width of the stopper 1032 is also rationally designed. Specifically, the width of the stopper 1032 is not less than the diameter of the cigarette, that is, it can match the diameter of the cigarette or exceed the diameter of the cigarette. When the width of the stopper 1032 is greater than the diameter of the cigarette, the stopper 1032 can better wrap the cigarette, preventing it from sliding or tilting inside the box body 10. In actual production, the design of the length and width of the stopper 1032 should also take into account the diversity of different types of cigarettes.
[0040] In some optional embodiments, the cover 20 includes a covering surface 201 and side walls 202. The covering surface 201 is used to cover the opening of the inner cavity 101 to prevent dust, dirt, and other external substances from entering, ensuring the cleanliness and hygiene of the cigarettes inside. The side walls 202 are arranged around the covering surface 201 by crease lines. One of the side walls 202 is connected between the covering surface 201 and the box bottom 102. When the cover 20 is closed relative to the box body 10, the remaining side wall 202 can be tightly attached to the side wall 103 of the box body 10 to prevent the cover 20 from accidentally falling off. This ensures that users do not have to worry about the risk of the cover 20 opening due to external force when carrying or transporting the cigarette, providing a better user experience.
[0041] In some optional embodiments, the sidewalls 202 include a first sidewall 2021, a second sidewall 2022, a third sidewall 2023, and a fourth sidewall 2024. The cover surface 201 and the bottom 102 are connected by the first sidewall 2021. At least one of the second sidewall 2022, the third sidewall 2023, and the fourth sidewall 2024 is provided with a notch 203 to facilitate the opening of the lid 20 relative to the body 10. The provision of the notch 203 allows the user to open the lid 20 without applying excessive force; a gentle lift is sufficient to complete the opening and closing operation. This user-friendly design greatly improves the convenience and comfort of use, making it easier for users to open the lid 20, especially when their hands are weak or in inconvenient environments.
[0042] In some optional embodiments, the second side wall 2022, the third side wall 2023, and the fourth side wall 2024 are all provided with a notch 203, and the notch 203 is in an arc shape. The design of the arc-shaped notch 203 allows the user to lift the cover 20 smoothly when opening it, avoiding the risk of scratches caused by sharp edges.
[0043] In some other optional embodiments, a notch 203 is provided on the side wall 202 corresponding to the opening direction of the lid 20, allowing the user to more accurately position and apply force when opening the lid 20, thereby achieving an easier opening action. The matching position of the notch 203 with the opening direction of the lid 20 provides the user with a better sense of control during operation and avoids misoperation caused by improper force.
[0044] In some optional embodiments, the second side wall 2022, the third side wall 2023, and the fourth side wall 2024 are all double-layered. It can be explained that the double-layered side wall includes an outer side wall and an inner side wall, and the outer and inner sides are connected by a crease line. The provision of the double-layered side wall can prevent the cover 20 from deforming during use, thereby effectively protecting the cigarette in the inner cavity 101.
[0045] In some optional embodiments, the box body 10 is rectangular, and the height of the box body 10 is adapted to the diameter of the cigarette, so that the user can easily take out the cigarette, while also reducing the shaking of the cigarette in the box body 10.
[0046] In some optional embodiments, the length of the box body 10 is adapted to the length of the cigarettes so as to provide a suitable storage space for the cigarettes.
[0047] In some specific embodiments, the box body 10 is rectangular, with the height and length of the box body 10 adapted to the diameter of the cigarette, and the width of the box body 10 adapted to the total diameter of ten cigarettes. This design ensures that ten cigarettes can be neatly stored in the box, avoiding wasted space and making it easier to access. In addition, this paper box structure differs from the shape of traditional cigarette boxes, creating a more harmonious and beautiful visual appearance, thereby improving the overall user experience and enhancing brand recognition.
