ABSTRACT:
A carton flap folding assembly, particularly intended for use with single tuck flap cigarette cartons, uses a hinged upper plate provided with vacuum ports to elevate a major carton face. A lower tucker blade raises the flap face of the single carton flap and an upper tucker blade, which is carried at the end of a rotatable upper tucker arm, folds or tucks a flap edge portion of the single flap into the space between the surface of the upper cigarette pack row and the elevated major carton face. The upper tucker blade and arm are rotated out of the space in the carton while the upper hinge plate lowers the major carton face and releases it. The flap edge of the single tuck face is thereby held between the pack surface and the carton wall to close the carton.
