Rigid packet with hinged lid for elongated elements

摘要

A rigid cigarette packet appears as a cupped container with one open end, surmounted by a hinged lid, and is stiffened by a frame anchored firmly to the inside of the container. The frame exhibits a front portion and two lateral portions projecting from the open end, of which the lateral portions are fashioned with respective flaps bent double and presenting a Vee profile when viewed in cross section; when the lid is lowered to cover the open end of the container, the two flaps engage in a snap fit with corresponding flaps incorporated into the flank faces of the lid, ensuring a stable closure.
