Description

ETUI A CIGARES OU CIGARETTES PERFECTIONNE COMPORTANT UN COMPARTIMENT POUR RECEVOIR UNE CIGARETTE EN COMBUSTION IMPROVED CIGARETTE OR CIGARETTE CASE COMPRISING A COMPARTMENT FOR RECEIVING A COMBUSTION CIGARETTE
L'invention concerne un étui à cigares ou cigarettes perfectionné.The invention relates to an improved cigar or cigarette case.
Un des buts de l'invention est de combiner un étui distributeur avec un moyen de stocker temporairement une cigarette non complètement consommée de façon à pouvoir la réutiliser ultérieurement. Ce stockage temporaire doit se faire en toute sécurité, il est donc nécessaire de prévoir un moyen d'éteindre la cigarette et, optionnellement, de combiner au même dispositif un moyen permettant de rallumer la cigarette ultérieurement.One of the aims of the invention is to combine a dispenser case with a means of temporarily storing a non-completely consumed cigarette so as to be able to reuse it later. This temporary storage must be done safely, it is therefore necessary to provide a means of extinguishing the cigarette and, optionally, to combine the same device means to relight the cigarette later.
Ce but est atteint par un étui à cigarettes (ou à cigares), caractérisé en ce qu'il se compose essentiellement de :This goal is achieved by a cigarette case (or cigar), characterized in that it consists essentially of:
- un corps creux compartimenté, chacun des compartiments étant dimensionné pour recevoir une cigarette (ou un cigare), tous les compartiments ayant une extrémité avec ouverture débouchant d'un même côté du corps creux, le corps creux comportant un fond obturant l'autre extrémité de chaque compartiment à l'exception d'au moins un compartiment spécial (a) ayant ses deux extrémités débouchantes :- A compartmentalized hollow body, each of the compartments being sized to receive a cigarette (or a cigar), all the compartments having an end with opening opening on the same side of the hollow body, the hollow body having a bottom closing the other end of each compartment with the exception of at least one special compartment (a) having two open ends:
- un couvercle comportant au moins une ouverture permettant le passage d'une cigarette (ou d'un cigare), - un compartiment cendrier prolongeant axialement le corps à l'opposé du couvercle, ledit cendrier comportant un moyen de sectionnement et une butée sous le compartiment spécial (a) et à distance (d) de celui-ci.- A lid having at least one opening for the passage of a cigarette (or a cigar), - an ash box axially extending the body opposite the lid, said ash box having a cutting means and a stop under the special compartment (a) and remote (d) thereof.
Pour simplifier la description qui suit, on ne mentionne que les cigarettes mais on comprendra que l'invention s'applique également aux cigares en adaptant les dimensions en conséquence.To simplify the description that follows, it mentions only cigarettes but it will be understood that the invention also applies to cigars by adapting the dimensions accordingly.
Ces buts sont atteints par l'invention et ses multiples avantages ressortiront de la description ci-après faite en référence aux figures annexées suivantes :These objects are achieved by the invention and its multiple advantages will emerge from the following description given with reference to the following appended figures:
• Figure 1 : croquis représentant schématiquement un mode de réalisation préféré mais non limitatif de l'invention, • Figure 2 : vue en coupe verticale du mode de réalisation de la figure 1,FIG. 1: sketch schematically showing a preferred but nonlimiting embodiment of the invention, FIG. 2: vertical sectional view of the embodiment of FIG. 1,
• Figure 3 : vue de dessus de l'étui sans son couvercle rotatif,• Figure 3: top view of the case without its rotating lid,
• Figure 4 : section BB de la figure 1 ,• Figure 4: section BB of Figure 1,
• Figure 5 : vue partielle d'une variante de réalisation possible,• Figure 5: partial view of a possible embodiment,
• Figure 6 : vue de dessus d'une autre variante de réalisation possible. On se rapporte d'abord aux figures 1 à 4.• Figure 6: top view of another possible embodiment. We first refer to Figures 1 to 4.
Le mode de réalisation non limitatif représenté se compose d'un corps cylindrique (1) creux dont l'ouverture supérieure est fermée par un couvercle rotatif (2), fermé en partie basse par un fond (3) et prolongé axialement, en partie basse et à l'opposé du couvercle, par un compartiment (4) cylindrique fermé formant cendrier.The non-limiting embodiment shown consists of a cylindrical body (1) hollow whose upper opening is closed by a rotary cover (2), closed in the lower part by a bottom (3) and axially extended, in the lower part and opposite the lid, by a closed cylindrical compartment (4) forming ashtray.
Le corps (1) a au moins la longueur d'une cigarette et il est compartimenté en plusieurs compartiments longitudinaux, par exemple au nombre de six, référencés (a,b,c,d,e,f,g,).The body (1) has at least the length of a cigarette and is divided into several longitudinal compartments, for example six in number, referenced (a, b, c, d, e, f, g).
Les compartiments sont de préférence cylindriques et répartis à la périphérie et à l'intérieur du corps (1), chacun ayant un diamètre adapté à la cigarette à recevoir.The compartments are preferably cylindrical and distributed around the periphery and inside the body (1), each having a diameter adapted to the cigarette to be received.
En variante sur la figure 6 on montre des compartiments à séparations radiales (a',b',c',d',e',f,g'). Le couvercle rotatif (2) tourne autour de l'axe longitudinal du corps (1) et comporte une ouverture circulaire (5) de diamètre permettant le passage d'une cigarette et disposée en position initiale, au-dessus d'un compartiment spécial (a) qui servira au stockage d'une cigarette entamée comme il sera dit plus loin.As a variant in FIG. 6, compartments with radial separations (a ', b', c ', d', e ', f, g') are shown. The rotating lid (2) rotates about the longitudinal axis of the body (1) and has a circular opening (5) of diameter allowing the passage of a cigarette and arranged in initial position, above a special compartment ( a) which will be used for the storage of a started cigarette as will be mentioned later.
Le fond (3) obture tous les compartiments à l'exception du compartiment spécial (a). Dans la zone centrale du tube et entre les compartiments on peut prévoir de loger un petit briquet cylindrique (6).The bottom (3) closes all the compartments except for the special compartment (a). In the central zone of the tube and between the compartments can be provided to accommodate a small cylindrical lighter (6).
Le cendrier (4) présente une paroi cylindrique (7) dans le prolongement du corps (1) et comporte un moyen de sectionnement de l'extrémité d'une cigarette, par exemple un disque fixe (8) avec une ou plusieurs ouvertures coupantes (9), et une butée (10) prévue sur la paroi, à la verticale du compartiment spécial (a), et à une certaine distance (d) de l'ouverture (9).The ashtray (4) has a cylindrical wall (7) in the extension of the body (1) and comprises a means for severing the end of a cigarette, for example a fixed disc (8) with one or more cutting apertures ( 9), and a stop (10) provided on the wall, vertical to the special compartment (a), and at a distance (d) from the opening (9).
Le cendrier est, par exemple, comme sur les figures annexées, fermé en partie basse par un capuchon (11) à jupe cylindrique entourant la paroi (7), ledit capuchon pouvant pivoter autour de ladite paroi (7).The ashtray is, for example, as in the accompanying figures, closed at the bottom by a cap (11) with a cylindrical skirt surrounding the wall (7), said cap being pivotable about said wall (7).
On prévoit également un moyen (12) pour aider au dégagement et/ou à la coupe de l'extrémité de la cigarette en cendre ou en combustion, par exemple un poussoir ou tout moyen équivalent (12).There is also provided means (12) for assisting in disengaging and / or cutting the end of the cigarette into ash or combustion, for example a pusher or equivalent means (12).
L'étui selon l'invention s'utilise comme suit.The case according to the invention is used as follows.
Pour le stockage d'une provision de cigarettes neuves et par rotations successives du couvercle (2 ou 13) on place successivement l'ouverture (5) au-dessus de chaque entrée d'un compartiment à cigarette, on place dans chacun d'entre eux une cigarette neuve sauf dans le compartiment spécial (a) que l'on laisse vide, et on ramène le couvercle (2 ou 13) en position initiale avec l'ouverture (5) au dessus du compartiment spécial (a).For the storage of a supply of new cigarettes and by successive rotations of the lid (2 or 13) is placed successively the opening (5) above each entry of a cigarette compartment, it is placed in each of a new cigarette except in the special compartment (a) which is left empty, and the cover (2 or 13) is brought back to the initial position with the opening (5) above the special compartment (a).
Lorsqu'on veut ranger temporairement une cigarette en cours de consommation, on l'introduit par son extrémité en combustion dans le compartiment spécial (a) et on la laisse tomber jusqu'à la butée (10). Les cendres sont recueillies dans le cendrier (4). On peut, si nécessaire, couper l'extrémité de la cigarette en utilisant le moyen (12) et le disque coupant (8). On peut réutiliser la cigarette en renversant l'étui pour faire ressortir la cigarette non complètement utilisée et on peut la rallumer avec le briquet (6) si l'étui en est équipé.When one wants to temporarily store a cigarette during consumption, it is introduced by its burning end into the special compartment (a) and dropped to the stop (10). The ashes are collected in the ashtray (4). If necessary, the end of the cigarette can be cut using the means (12) and the cutting disc (8). The cigarette can be reused by reversing the case to bring out the cigarette not completely used and can be re-lit with the lighter (6) if the case is equipped.
Le capuchon (11) est amovible pour pouvoir vider le cendrier. L'étui selon l'invention peut être équipé de tout moyen de support ou d'accrochage, par exemple une agrafe (12) comme sur la figure 1, une sangle, un anneau, etc..The cap (11) is removable to empty the ashtray. The case according to the invention may be equipped with any means of support or attachment, for example a clip (12) as in Figure 1, a strap, a ring, etc.
L'étui représenté est cylindrique mais il peut, bien entendu, présenter d'autres formes extérieures sans sortir du principe de l'invention ; à titre d'exemple de variante on a représenté, en figure 5, un étui hexagonal dont la partie tournante supérieure est un couvercle-disque (13) monté à rotation sur le dessus de l'étui et qui comporte une ouverture (5) comme le couvercle à jupe (2) de la figure (1). Il comporte également un briquet central (6).The illustrated case is cylindrical but it can, of course, present other external forms without departing from the principle of the invention; As an alternative example, there is shown in FIG. 5 a hexagonal case whose upper rotating part is a disc cover (13) rotatably mounted on the top of the case and having an opening (5) such as the skirted lid (2) of Figure (1). It also includes a central lighter (6).
On peut prévoir de combiner le système d'allumage du briquet au couvercle-disque (13) ou au couvercle à jupe (2).It is possible to combine the lighter ignition system with the disc cover (13) or the skirt cover (2).
On peut prévoir également les variantes suivantes : - on peut en outre, prévoir en complément du couvercle un volet plat ou un dôme monté à pivotement sur le dessus de l'étui et pouvant soit être ouvert soit être rabattu sur le dessus de l'étui. Ce volet ou ce dôme peut comporter en sous face un picot de fermeture de l'ouverture (5) pour rendre le conduit (a) étanche. le corps (1) peut être télescopique. - le mode d'ouverture du couvercle (2, 13) peut être remplacé par un mode d'ouverture à barillet. le moyen de sectionnement (8) peut être automatique. on peut prévoir sur l'extérieur du corps (1) des moyens d'indexation pour savoir si la cigarette (ou le cigare) est tombée sur une butée (10) ou le fond du cendrier (4). - on peut prévoir plusieurs compartiments tels que (a), avec en dessous de chacun une butée (10) à distance (d) différente, le fond du cendrier pouvant même faire office de butée (10). on peut prévoir d'autres moyens de sectionnement fixe ou rotatif, le briquet peut être maintenu par tout moyen approprié tel que aimant, joint torique ou autre. on peut prévoir également que l'étui soit étanche à l'eau et/ou qu'il soit combiné à un autre accessoire, une lampe de poche par exemple.The following variants can also be provided: - it is also possible, in addition to the cover, to provide a flat flap or a dome pivotally mounted on the top of the case and that can be opened or folded over the top of the case . This flap or this dome may comprise on the underside a pin closing the opening (5) to make the duct (a) tight. the body (1) can be telescopic. - The lid opening mode (2, 13) can be replaced by a barrel opening mode. the severing means (8) can be automatic. an indexing means can be provided on the outside of the body (1) for determining whether the cigarette (or the cigar) has fallen on a stop (10) or the bottom of the ashtray (4). - There may be several compartments such as (a), with below each a stop (10) distance (d) different, the bottom of the ashtray can even act as a stop (10). it is possible to provide other means of fixed or rotary cutting, the lighter can be maintained by any appropriate means such as magnet, O-ring or other. it can also provide that the case is waterproof and / or it is combined with another accessory, a flashlight for example.
Les avantages de l'invention sont nombreux :The advantages of the invention are numerous:
le fumeur dispose d'une petite réserve de cigarettes en permanence, il peut s'interrompre de fumer une cigarette sans avoir à la jeter pour l'éteindre, il fait ainsi une économie puisqu'il peut réutiliser la cigarette à demi fumée et il a une attitude de protection de l'environnement : propreté du sol, pas de risque de déclencher un incendie, etc .. the smoker has a small supply of cigarettes all the time, he can stop smoking a cigarette without having to throw it to extinguish it, so it saves money because it can reuse the half-smoke cigarette and it has an attitude of environmental protection: cleanliness of the soil, no risk of starting a fire, etc.
