Cigarette packet has two hinged lids at opposite ends

摘要

A hinge lid cigarette packet has an upper lid and a lower lid. The packet is constructed from a blank which is of a configuration which is symmetrical about the longitudinal centreline thereof. The upper lid is formed, in conventional fashion, of specifically lid panels of the blank, whereas the lower lid is formed of portions of what in a conventional single hinge lid packet are body panels. In order for the second lid to be moved from its closed position on the first opening thereof, front (24) and side (20) panels of the lid are separated at lines of weakening (28) from bounding body panels.
