Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of cigarette packaging technology, specifically an integrated cigarette box containing a humidification box. Background Technology
[0002] In China, tobacco and tea are not merely consumer goods, but have become a unique smoking culture. Existing cigarette packaging generally consists of a box body and a lid, with the lid being a flip-top paper lid and an inner lining inside. Once the cigarette box is opened, the inner lining is also torn open, leaving the box unsealed. Prolonged contact between the cigarettes and air can lead to humidity changes. Some cigarette boxes use moisture-absorbing cotton to control humidity, including but not limited to the technology disclosed in patent CN215157471U. However, tobacco varies between the south and north. The south is more humid, which can cause the cigarettes to become damp, while the north is drier, causing the tobacco to dry out quickly, affecting the flavor and aroma. Using only moisture-absorbing cotton may result in insufficient sealing, allowing the cigarettes to remain damp, and it also fails to prevent the tobacco from drying out excessively. Therefore, a one-piece cigarette box with an internal moisture-absorbing compartment is proposed to solve these problems. Utility Model Content
[0003] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this utility model provides an integrated cigarette case with a built-in humidification box, which has the advantage of being easy to use and solves the technical problem of inconvenience in use.
[0004] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution:
[0005] An integrated cigarette case with a built-in humidifier includes a lower case, a connecting part on one side of the lower case, and an upper case connected to the lower case via the connecting part. The other sides of the upper and lower cases are provided with side baffles to allow the upper and lower cases to be folded to form the cigarette case body. The cigarette case can be opened by flipping it horizontally. The cigarette case body contains a humidifier adapted to it. The upper surface of the humidifier has a cigarette opening. A humidifier sticker can be torn off at the cigarette opening. The humidifier sticker is torn longitudinally.
[0006] Furthermore, the side baffle is composed of a cover plate and fins.
[0007] Furthermore, a cover is provided on the side opposite to the connecting part in the box body, and fins are provided on the side adjacent to the connecting part.
[0008] Furthermore, each of the fins has an extension piece at one end that is separated from the other. The extension piece extends beyond the cover plate, so that the extension pieces are folded together and placed inside the cover plate.
[0009] Furthermore, the axial extension of the long side of the cigarette outlet is aligned with the axial extension of the cigarette roll.

[0023] The technical solutions of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present invention.
[0024] Please see Figure 1-6This embodiment of an integrated cigarette box with a humidifying box includes a lower box 1. The lower box 1 has a connecting part 3 on one side, which connects to the upper box 2. The other sides of the upper box 2 and the lower box 1 are provided with side baffles, so that the upper box 2 and the lower box 1 can be folded to form a cigarette box body. The cigarette box can be opened by flipping it horizontally. The cigarette box body is provided with a humidifying box 4 that is adapted to it. The upper end face of the humidifying box 4 has a cigarette take-out opening 41. A moisturizing sticker 42 can be torn off at the cigarette take-out opening 41. The moisturizing sticker 42 is torn longitudinally. The side baffle is composed of a cover and a fin.
[0025] Please see Figure 1 The upper box 2 and the lower box 1 are respectively provided with an upper cover plate 21 and a lower cover plate 11 on the side opposite to the connecting part 3. The adjacent side is provided with an upper fin 22 and a lower fin 12. The upper fin 22 and the lower fin 12 are respectively provided with an extension piece at the separated end. The extension piece on the upper fin 22 is the upper extension piece 221, and the extension piece on the lower fin 12 is the lower extension piece 121. There is a crease between the two to facilitate the extension piece to flip around the fin. The extension piece extends beyond the cover plate, so that after the extension pieces on the same side are folded towards each other, the extension pieces abut against each other and are placed inside the cover plate. This can be used as a reinforcing block to increase the strength of the cardboard box.
[0026] There are two methods for cutting this integrated cigarette box. Since the integrated vertically extended cigarette box is the first of its kind, there is no suitable existing equipment for cutting it, so manual cutting is used in some processes. However, the current horizontally flip-open cigarette box is of the DDXR box type, which can be directly cut and packaged using a cigarette machine. This application cuts paper into the above structure, which is suitable for the DDXR box type and can be directly processed using existing equipment.
[0027] This cigarette box design, by altering the structure and folding method of the paperboard, makes the integrated paperboard compatible with existing cutting machines, thus facilitating production.
[0028] Since cigarette 5 is long and narrow, the vertical direction in the following text refers to the same direction as the extension axis of cigarette 5, and the horizontal direction refers to the other axis perpendicular to it.
[0029] Most cigarette boxes on the market are rectangular. This cigarette box connects its long side (that is, the usual side) through a connecting part 3 (such as...). Figure 1 As shown), this allows a piece of paper to be folded into a cigarette box (as shown). Figure 2 When (as shown) is turned on, as Figure 3 As shown, it can be turned on by flipping horizontally;
[0030] The method of cutting and folding a sheet of paper into a cigarette box can be found in the prior application of the inventor's patent number 202210597975.1, "An Environmentally Friendly One-Piece Cigarette Box Manufacturing Method". The innovation of this application lies in the change of the paper cutting structure and the design to avoid the conflict between the humidification box 4 and the opening and closing method of the cigarette box. Therefore, the method of folding into a box will not be described in detail here.
[0031] Please see Figure 5-6 To prevent the tobacco from drying out too much in the north and the humidity from invading from the south, the cigarette box has an internal humidifying box 4. Compared with the humidifying patch 42 that absorbs moisture, this increases the sealing of the cigarette 5 and achieves a better effect in maintaining relative humidity. The opening at the bottom of the humidifying box 4 is closed by folding, which is existing technology and will not be described in detail. In order to ensure the maximum capacity of the humidifying box 4, the humidifying box 4 needs to be adapted to the internal space of the cigarette box. Its cigarette opening 41 can only be opened on the top surface and not on the four sides, so as to facilitate the removal of cigarettes.
[0032] To facilitate opening and closing the cigarette slot 41 during repeated use, a tearable moisturizing sticker 42 is adhesively used to seal the cigarette slot 41. The sticker 42 can be torn open during use and re-adhere afterward. However, typical cigarette boxes are connected side-by-side and open longitudinally (see the aforementioned prior application). Since the cigarette 5 is long and narrow, it can only be removed longitudinally from the moisturizing box 4. Therefore, if both the cigarette box's flipping axis and the peeling axis of the moisturizing sticker 42 are longitudinal, and the cigarette box is made of a folded piece of paper with a limited flipping angle, it will obstruct the peeling action and space of the sticker, causing inconvenience. Figure 7 As shown, the dotted line represents the space that the peelable moisturizing patch 42 may actually occupy. This application connects the long sides of the cigarette box and flips the cigarette box horizontally to open it, thus offsetting the opening axis of the cigarette box and the peeling axis of the moisturizing patch 42. This makes it easier for people to perform the peeling action, making it easier to peel the moisturizing patch 42 and more convenient to use. Furthermore, the long side extension axis of the cigarette opening 41 is consistent with the extension axis of the cigarette roll 5, making it easier to remove the cigarette roll 5.
[0033] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
