ABSTRACT:
A rigid carton type wrapper (1; 80; 86) for packets (2) of cigarettes is fashioned as a box-like container (8) with a hinged lid (10) erected from a flat blank (42; 81; 99) presenting a main portion (43), and an appendage (44) extending from the main portion (43) parallel with a longitudinal axis (L′) of the blank; the appendage (44), which appears U-shaped and functions as a frame (27) projecting from an open end (9) of the container (8), is folded double into contact with the main portion (43) to bring the frame (27) into position relative to container (8). The wrapper (1; 80; 86) appears essentially as a rectangular parallelepiped with a predominating longitudinal axis (L), having a front face (24) and a rear face (25) disposed parallel one with another, a top end face (19) and a bottom end face (15), and two flank faces (26) lying mutually parallel and at right angles to the front and rear faces (24, 25); the front, rear and flank faces (24, 25, 26) are joined one to another by way of slender fillets or bands (38, 39, 40, 41) extending parallel to the longitudinal axis (L).
