The disclosure is of a cigarette or like packet of composite foil, with lateral end flaps separated from inner neighboring longitudinal end flaps but continuously connected with outer longitudinal end flaps and folded in between the inner and outer end flaps with the formation of overlying triangular lappets. For making and filling the packet there is an apparatus with winding mandrels to roll the foil into a tube, and a turret having devices for filling the tube and forming it into a closed packet by folding end flaps.

Two laterally spaced groups of cigarettes 11, 12 partially encased in tinfoil wrappers 27 are discharged from a chain conveyor 26 onto a reciprocating platform 33 by entraining members 24, 25. The groups are then discharged by pushers 42 onto a folding platform 32 until they strike a movable stop 75, at which position three of the four wrapper end flaps are folded and the two groups are laterally brought together. Thereafter the merged groups are fed into the open top or mouth of a packet 10 disposed in a pocket 14 of an indexable turret 15 by pushers 64, which simultaneously fold down the fourth wrapper flap.

Packaging machine for producing cigarette packs, having a folding turret (10), on the circumference of which there are arranged receiving means or pockets (26) for packaging material and pack contents along with movable folding elements and other elements assigned to the receiving means or pockets (26). The folding turret (10) is subdivided into a plurality of, in particular two, sub-turrets (17, 18) which are positioned equiaxially one beside the other in the axial direction and are connected releasably to one another. Each sub-turret (17, 18) can be handled, in particular removed, separately.

A method of producing a container, such as a flip-top cigarette packet, is disclosed. The method includes the initial step of folding an elongate blank at a fold line so that first and second portions of the blank on respective opposite sides of the fold line are brought into mutually facing relationship, and the subsequent steps of folding the first such portion to form the main body of the container and folding the second such portion to form the lid of the container, the latter folding step being carried out whilst the lid portion remains hingedly connected with the main body at the fold line. Also disclosed is apparatus comprising respective folding means to perform the three folding operations referred to above.
摘要:
Cigarettes are stored in one or more reservoirs (6) at a customer location. A computer receives customer orders and transmits them to a dispenser. Upon receipt of a customer order, a pre-selected number of cigarettes are automatically removed from the reservoir(s) by the dispenser and then automatically packed in a container by a packer comprising a collation mandrel (22) which is moveable relative to the dispenser. A preferred type of substantially air-tight, self-sealing container has a lid portion (68), a body portion (50) and a collar (58), which is mounted within the body portion (50). The body portion (50) is provided with one or more upwardly extending protrusions (56) on the upper surface of the base thereof. An air and moisture impermeable membrane (60) is sealed about the upper periphery of the collar (58).
摘要:
In the production of hinge lid packs with rounded longitudinal edges, collars (10) which are present in this type of pack are preshaped in the region of longitudinal edges (13) which are also rounded. For this purpose, a scoring (embossed strip 21, 22) which extends in the longitudinal direction is applied to a web of material (14). Thereafter, the collars (10) are severed from the web of material (14) and are preshaped in the region of the longitudinal edges (13) which are to be formed. The collars (10) which have been prepared in this way can be placed on a cigarette block and be further processed in the conventional manner.
