First Claim
1. A constructive arrangement used for an opening device for a package, of the carton type, obtained from a single sheet, cut out and creased so as to define a plurality of areas, comprising:
- a front face of the package having an outer side;
a back face of the package having an outer side;
a pair of side faces of the package, one of said side faces being disposed between said front and back faces, and the other of said side faces being disposed on said outer side of said front face;
a trapezoidal flap being joined to said outer side of said back face;
a prolongation attached to each smaller side of said front and back faces, and each smaller side of said side faces is provided with a respective prolongation, said prolongations defining upper and lower faces of the package;
an L-shaped cut-out made in an innermost edge of said prolongation of said back face, a smaller and horizontal leg of which is defined by a small segment, followed by a small arc which ends close to a vertex of said prolongation of said corresponding side face;
a semiarticulated tongue positioned on said prolongation of said corresponding side face and defined by a rectangular area disposed in said prolongation, which extends to said side face in the form of a semicircle portion, said rectangular area having a pair of larger sides vertically disposed and a smaller side horizontally disposed, said semiarticulated tongue having perforated lines disposed at the larger sides and at said semicircular portion, defining a weakened area, said tongue being articulated through its horizontal smaller side; and
a small flap defined by an area disposed from an edge of a smaller side of said prolongation of said front face, adjacent said prolongation, which contains said semiarticulated tongue, said smaller sides of said area being disposed horizontally and provided with perforated lines, while said internal vertical larger side of said area has a central articulation point and said other external larger side of said area is free for movement.

Abstract
The present invention refers to a constructive arrangement applied to an opening device for packages of the carton type, containing a dry product, either powdered or granulated, such as powdered soap or the like. The constructive arrangement includes a transversely semiarticulated tongue which has perforated lines. The tongue is defined by a semicircular area disposed in one of the side faces of the package and by a rectangular area disposed in the upper face thereof. An articulated rectangular flap is positioned on the portion which is disposed in the upper face and also has perforated lines. To open the package, these perforated lines are broken and the semiarticulated tongue and the rectangular flap are moved so as to be juxtaposed in the vertical position in the upper face of the package. In operation, the semiarticulated tongue is folded so that its semicircular and rectangular parts will be joined together in the vertical position.
