Description

Cigarette measuring cigarette case.

Object of the invention

The present invention relates to a cigarette case dosing of cigarettes, which are equipped with a system control opening adjustable cover, so that opening is done periodically, every period of time preset, in order to decrease the number of cigarettes to consume daily, gradually limiting it over time, with The ultimate goal of quitting tobacco.

The object of the invention is to achieve a cigarette case that ensures the expected dosage and that does not allow simultaneous extraction of two or more cigars after opening the same, before moments of weakness in the willpower of the Username.

Background of the invention

The applicant himself is the owner of the Model Utility U 9903290, which describes a cigarette case provided with adjustable opening control, cigarette case equipped with a lid with controlled closing, so that conveniently programming the lid opening means, timed operable and automatic using a battery-powered electrical mechanism, the cigarette case open exclusively after periods of time preset, such as one hour, to be these periods that establish in turn between consumption of a cigarette and the next one.

This cigarette case, functionally satisfactory from a theoretical point of view, it presents in practice a problem in the case of smokers with low willpower and that try to deceive themselves, because in a moment of weakness, specifically at a time when the cigarette case is open, can be extracted more than one cigarette, with what your functional effectiveness is canceled since, for example, every time the cigarette case opens the user can extract two cigarettes, with what the expected times for tobacco consumption remain halved

Description of the invention

The cigarette case proposed by the invention has been conceived and structured in order to fully resolve The problem described above is satisfactory, so that Not only does this cigarette case open every period of time preset, but also after each opening do not allow more than the extraction of a single cigarette.

For this and from the basic structuring of the utility model U 9903290 cigarette case cited, the invention consists in arranging under said cover practicable and automatic opening of the cigarette case a plate of closure, provided in correspondence with one of the ends of a hole that allows the passage of a cigarette, the compartment for housing cigarettes with a strangled sector, dimensionally suitable to receive a single cigarette, which faces the hole in the plate close, so that when the lid is opened just said cigarette is accessible to be extracted.

In order to prevent with the cigarette case open and after the extraction of said cigarette, it can be extracted a second cigarette through said hole in the closure plate, it is planned that in the lower compartment, the one intended for cover control mechanisms, a small piston is placed liable to access the strangled area or sector through a hole in the partition that separates the compartment from the mentioned compartment mechanism intended for cigarettes, piston that it rests on a pier that tends to project it upwards, it is say to said camera or compartment location of the cigarettes, a side arm of said piston being associated with said "L" configuration, which plays in one of the dead spaces defined on both sides of the strangled sector of the aforementioned cigarette compartment, and that extends to the level of the lid, so that when the lid is in position of closing the piston is retracted in the lower compartment, while when the lid is opened the spring causes the extension of the same, with a double function, on the one hand push the cigarette located on the piston facilitating its extraction, and by other side that said piston closes the side entrance to the sector strangled, preventing the access of a new cigarette to this zone as long as the closing of the lid does not occur again.

It is achieved in this way that every time the lid opens only a cigarette can be extracted from inside the cigarette case, and consequently keep the schedule in tobacco consumption.

Description of the drawings

To complement the description that is being performing and in order to help a better understanding of the characteristics of the invention, according to a preferred example of practical realization of it, is accompanied as part member of that description, a set of drawings where with illustrative and non-limiting nature, what has been represented next:

Figure 1.- Shows, according to a representation schematic in perspective, a measuring cigarette case of cigarettes made in accordance with the purpose of this invention.

Figure 2.- Shows a plan view upper of the same cigarette case of the previous figure, with its lid open

Figure 3.- Shows a detail in section cross section of the cigarette case according to the cutting line A-B in figure 2 and with its cover in a situation of closing.

Figure 4.- Shows a similar representation to figure 3, but with the cover of the cigarette case open.

Figure 5.- Shows, finally, another detail in cross section of the cigarette case, now according to the C-D cut line of figure 2.

Preferred Embodiment of the Invention

In view of the figures outlined you can be observed as the dosing cigarette case that the invention proposes it is constituted from a rectangular prismatic body (1), with any size appropriate to the expected load capacity for the cigarette case, hollow body that closes superiorly by means of a cover (2) equipped with hinged means (3) and an automatic closing system (4) opposed to said hinged, close (4) actuated through a circuit electronic with its corresponding power battery located in a lower compartment (5) independent of the chamber or compartment (6) intended for the location of cigarettes, by means of a horizontal partition (7), settling outside of this compartment (5) the controls (8) and (9) to program through the aforementioned circuit the moments when produce the automatic opening of the lid (2), to access the cigarettes housed inside the cigarette case.

Well, from this structuring basic equivalent to that of the Utility Model above cited, the invention consists in establishing in the upper area of the body (1) of the cigarette case, immediately below the lid (2), a closing plate (10) fixed immovably to the body (1) and endowed at one of its ends with a hole (11) dimensionally suitable to allow passage through a cigarette.

This hole (11) of the closing plate (10) faces a strangled sector (12) defined in the main chamber (6) cigarette container, sector defined by two dihedral and obtuse partitions (13) that define ramps that facilitate access to such strangled sector (12), where the location of a cigarette allows its exit abroad to through a hole (11) when the lid (2) is opened.

As a complement to the structure described in the  lower compartment (5) and also in a situation of confrontation to the strangled sector (12), a piston (14) is placed operatively facing a hole (15) of the partition (7), coaxial with the hole (11) of the closing plate (10), said piston tending (14) to move upwards due to a spring (16).

To the aforementioned piston (14) an arm (17) is integral configuration in "L", which after accessing one of the spaces (18) defined on both sides of the strangled sector (12), ascends to the level of the lid (2), as shown especially in figure 3, so that when said cover is closed, as shown in Figure 3, the piston (14) is found retracted inside the compartment (5), leaving freedom of access by lateral displacement of cigarettes at strangled sector (12), while when the opening of the lid and when the arm (17) is released, the piston (14) ascend by pushing a cigarette to facilitate extraction of the same, but preventing another cigarette from occupying the strangled sector (12), as long as the closure of the cover (2) and the consequent retraction of the piston (14).

It is achieved in this way, according to the objective of the invention, that the cigarette case not only be opened to preset time intervals, but at each opening so Only one single cigarette can be extracted.
