A recently granted patent (Publication Number: US11866235B2) discloses a unique blank for producing three-dimensional structures made of paper, cardboard, or plastic, such as packages. The blank includes lateral surfaces and bottom/cover tabs connected by mechanically produced creasing lines without material removal. Additionally, grooves formed by a laser intersect with the creasing lines to absorb residual stresses, enhancing the structural integrity of the folded state. The grooves can be arranged in decorative patterns or different partial surfaces, providing versatility in design options for the three-dimensional structures.
Furthermore, the patent extends to folding boxes made of cardboard, paper, or similar materials, featuring lateral walls and tabs connected by creasing lines and grooves produced by lasers. These grooves, intersecting with the creasing lines, contribute to absorbing residual stresses and improving the overall strength of the folding box. The design allows for the formation of decorative patterns or different partial surfaces within the lateral walls, offering customization possibilities. The folding boxes can be utilized as packages for storing various goods, including cigarettes, with a focus on transport and storage efficiency for both pourable and non-pourable items.
