Store fire extinguishing water W inside. Then, when the fire water W almost disappears from the hose 33, the pump 32 is stopped. Subsequently, after the ashtray side portion 33a of the hose 33 is accommodated in the main body casing 40, the open / close door 54 is closed. Next, the amount of the fire extinguishing water W in the ashtray 10 is checked, and the fire extinguishing water W that is insufficient in the ashtray 10 is replenished. In this case, the required amount of odor inhibitor is also dropped. The installation of the mesh container 11 in the ashtray 10 may be performed after the extinguishing water W is replenished.

  The normal cleaning operation of the ashtray apparatus 1 is thus completed. If the flow rate of the fire-extinguishing water W discharged from the hose 33 decreases after performing a plurality of cleaning operations, the ashtray 10 and the like can be cleaned. Subsequently, the filter medium 23 in the filter 20 is replaced. In this case, the butterfly bolt 53 is loosened and the cover plate 51 is removed from the opening 44a. Then, the valve 34 is opened, and the fire extinguishing water W remaining in the filter 20 is discharged. Subsequently, after the filter material presser 24 is taken out from the filter body 21, the clogged filter material 23 is taken out from the filter body 21 together with the cigarette ash. Subsequently, a new filter medium 23 is placed on the wire mesh 22, and a filter medium presser 24 is placed on the filter medium 23. Thereafter, when the valve 34 is closed and the opening 44a is closed by the lid plate 51, the replacement work of the filter medium 23 is completed. The fire extinguishing water W from the valve 34 may be returned to the ashtray 10 side without being discarded.

  As described above, in the ashtray apparatus 1, the fire of the cigarette butt S can be surely extinguished using the fire-extinguishing water W. Moreover, in this ashtray apparatus 1, since the fire-extinguishing water W is filtered and reused, the amount of the fire-extinguishing water W to be added can be minimized. Therefore, the cleaning operation can be facilitated.

  Furthermore, in this ashtray apparatus 1, what is discarded is the cigarette butt S in the mesh container 11, the cigarette ash, and the filter material 23 clogged with these, and the fire extinguishing water W itself is discarded as compared with the conventional apparatus.
