Wood Cigarette Box - Surprise & Delight Magic Wooden Dispenser

Product Information

With the exception of window 36, dispenser 10 is molded as a unitary whole from a suitable thermoplastic material. The material is resilient to the extent necessary to permit clip 48 and clasps 56 to flex to gain a grip upon visor 38 and lighter 70. Window 36, however, can be made from a transparent plastic material that need not possess the ability to flex. After window 36 is independently formed, is can be affixed within opening 34 by adhesive cement or other suitable means. The cigarette dispenser can be more readily understood with reference to the accompanying drawings, in which:

Cradle 22 includes a rectangular, bottom wall 44 that connects together the bottoms of tabs 40 and 42. Bottom wall 44 extends the full length of tabs 40 and 42 and has the same height as walls 26, 28, and 30. By partially closing opening 20 at the bottom of box 12, bottom wall 44 serves to retain cigarettes 18 within box 12 until such time as a user chooses to smoke one of them. It is an object of the invention to provide improved features and arrangements thereof in a cigarette dispenser for the purposes described which is lightweight in construction, inexpensive to manufacture, and dependable in use. It is a further object of the invention to provide a cigarette dispenser that is easy to use while driving and, prior to taking a road trip, can be loaded and installed in a land vehicle by one person with minimal instruction and without resort to any additional tools. The cigarette dispenser is intuitive to use.

FIG. 1 is a perspective view of a cigarette dispenser in accordance with the present invention shown mounted upon the sun visor of a land vehicle. Similar reference characters denote corresponding features consistently throughout the accompanying drawings. DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENT I printed the lid of the box again with 10% infill and 0.28 layer height. However, same for the other parts, it is also advised to be printed heavier, ie by using 50% or more infill for more effective automation. If you are not going to make any color change you can print all (4) parts at once, with the same settings you want. They fit into 200X200mm bed size. So if you want two colors (if you have a one extruder printer like mine) as seen in the pictures, you should "pause at height" at layers 2 and 15 to change the filaments. In other words: 0.4mm box color+2.6mm label color (layer 15) and then the rest is box color again.

Based on the wooden version I saw at Youtube, I designed a 3d print model myself using Tinkercad. Main parts are composed of two:

Front wall 32 is provided with a rectrangular, observation opening 34. Opening 34 extends substantially from the top of front wall 32 to the bottom of front wall 32 as well as from one side of front wall 32 to the other. A transparent window 36 is affixed to front wall 32 so as to close opening 34, keep cigarettes 18 clean, and retain cigarettes 18 within box 12. Most of the cigarettes 18 held within box 12 at any given point in time can be viewed through window 36. The foregoing and other objects, features, and advantages of the cigarette dispenser will become readily apparent upon further review of the following detailed description as illustrated in the accompanying drawings. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS FIG. 2 is a side elevational view of the cigarette dispenser with portions broken away to reveal details thereof.
