'INHALING DEVICE Filed July 26, 1943 I INVENTOR. JED LAED/NOIS Patented Aug. 12, 1947 UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE INHALING DEVICE Omer Lardinois, Detroit, Mich.
Application July 26, 1943, Serial No. 496,245
1 Claim.
My invention relates to a new and useful improvement in an inhaling device adapted for treatment of colds, nasal congestion, etc.
It is an object of the present invention to provide a device resembling in shape, size and appearance a cigar or cigarette so that the user may hold one end of the device in his mouth and draw air through the device so as to bring into the mouth and perhaps breathe outwardly through the nose, vapors of a suitable medicament.
It is another object of the present invention to provide a device of this type having a valve mechanism at one end which may be easily and quickly opened and closed.
It is another object of the present invention to provide a device of this type having a recess or groove bearing stem which may be inserted into a container containing liquid so that a part of the liquid may be transferred to the interior of the enclosing shell used in the device.
Other objects will appear hereinafter.
It is recognized that various modifications and changes may be made in the structure illustrated Without departing from the invention itself and it is intended that such variations and modifications shall be embraced herein.
Forming a part of this specification are drawings in which,
Fig. 1 is a side tion,
Fig. 2 is a vertical, central sectional view of the invention,
Fig. 3 is a side elevational view of the invention taken at right angles to that shown in Fig. 1, with a part broken away and a part shown in section,
Fig. 4 is a sectional view Fig. 2,
Fig. 5 is a sectional of Fig. 3.
As shown in the drawings, the invention comprises an enclosing shell I onto one end of which is threaded a mouthpiece 8, having a stem 9 which projects inwardly of the shell I. The mouthpiece 8 is provided with the bore or passage III which communicates through the lateral passages I I and I2 with the interior of the shell 1.
Threaded into the opposite end of the shell is a valve-forming plug [3 having a socket I4 formed therein, extending outwardly from which are oppositely disposed passages I5 and I6. When the plug I3 is threaded completely onto the shell I, as shown in Fig. 3, passages or openings I5 and I6 will be out of registration with the openings I1 and I8 formed in the shell I. When the plug I3 is slightly rotated in reverse the openings or passages I5 and I6 will be in registration with the openings I1 and I8 as shown in Fig. 4.
In use the stem 9 would be inserted into a liqelevational View of the inventaken on line 44 of view taken on line 5-5 uid container containing a volatile substance such as pine tar, eucalyptus oil or the like. As the stem is withdrawn from the container a quantity of this liquid will adhere to the periphery of the stem 9 as well as in grooves I9 which are formed in the stem 9. The parts are then assembled as shown in Fig. 2 and when the plu I3 is rotated to the position shown in Fig. 4 the user may draw air through the device, thus bringing into the mouth the healing or soothing vapors. By forming the device to resemble a cigar or cigarette the user may use the device without being noticeable by others. When not inhaling through the mechanism the plug I3 may be rotated to the position shown in Fig. 5 so that undue vaporizing of the volatile liquid will be prevented.
In this manner, I have provided a compact, Simple, inexpensive structure which may be carried in the pocket of the user and be available for use at will.
What I claim as new is:
In an inhaling device Of the class described, a tubular enclosing shell; a mouth piece mounted in one end Of said shell and projecting outwardly therefrom; a stem formed integral with said mouthpiece and projecting from one end thereof inwardly of said shell and terminating adjacent the opposite end of said shell, within said shell, said mouthpiece having a central bore formed therethrough extending into one end of said stem, there being lateral openings in said mouth piece communicating the bore thereof with the interior of said shell, said stem havin a plurality of liquid retaining depressions formed in its periphery; and a valve mechanism mounted in said opposite end of said shell for controlling communication of the interior of said shell with the exterior thereof.
ONLER LARDINOIS.
