Description

[Detailed explanation of the invention] ``Purpose of the invention'' This invention relates to the invention of an outdoor cigarette butt holder, which always maintains a desirable clean appearance and appearance outdoors, and which can be used dry under conditions such as rain, snow, or watering. The aim is to provide a cigarette butt holder that can extinguish fires in a smokeless manner.

Industrial field of use Equipment that receives cigarette butts outdoors and extinguishes them using a smokeless method.

Conventional technology The generation of butts is inevitable when smoking, and many types of butt holder or butt holders have been used in the past, but most are ones that simply contain the butts, leaving the butts exposed. If this is undesirable, a cover with a cigarette butt inlet is provided.

In addition, in recent years, when there are people who dislike smoking, it has been practiced to store water in order to extinguish the thrown cigarette butts.

In order to avoid the complications and disadvantages of extinguishing cigarette butts using water, the present inventor proposed a dry smokeless method for extinguishing cigarette butts, as disclosed in Utility Model Application No. 57-197898 and Publication No. 61-7600. I did it.

Furthermore, in Japanese Utility Model Application Publication No. 59-77396, the lower part of the funnel provided below the cigarette butt inlet is cut into opposing tapered surfaces, and a balance-operating opening/closing lid is provided on these tapered surfaces so as to lightly contact the funnel. It has been proposed that the tapered surface is always closed by the parallel action of the opening/closing lid and the weight, and that the slight impact when the cigarette butt is inserted causes the cigarette butt to move up and down, causing the cigarette butt to fall to the bottom, thereby creating a smokeless state. ing.

Problems that the invention aims to solve: Conventional devices that simply insert cigarette butts expose the cigarette butts, causing discomfort to non-smokers and non-smokers. However, the cover or the area around the inlet will be soiled with cigarette particles, residual ash, etc., which will also cause discomfort.

Storing water in a cigarette butt container to extinguish a fire is preferable as it does not produce smoke, but the water is contaminated by the cigarette butts and causes discomfort, and when cleaning, do not use contaminated water containers or cloths. It is necessary and complicated.

Extinguishing fires using the dry smokeless method is preferable as it does not require the treatment of contaminated water, but cigarette dust and ash adhere to the inlet, making it impractical to clean, so it is not recommended to install it on the street or in a park. harms the aesthetic appearance. Of course, the same disadvantages remain even when used indoors, so it is necessary to wipe it after each use to ensure cleanliness.

The above-mentioned Utility Model No. 59-77396 is theoretically smokeless, but its structure is complicated and it is not easy to manufacture.Moreover, the weight of the light butt acts as a balance, and the butt is placed at the bottom. Since it is intended to be dropped, its operation lacks reliability, and especially when paper waste is thrown in, it gets caught and its operation is hindered. In addition, if it is installed outdoors, rainwater will enter the interior through the cigarette butt inlet, making it impossible to ensure dry fire extinguishing, and corroding the internal opening/closing lid operating part, obstructing its operation. The set location is limited, such as in a campus.

``Structure of the invention'' Means for solving the problem A blind-lidded spherical bulging cap is fixed to the top surface of the cylindrical body, an eave is provided around the lower part of the blind-lidded spherical bulging cap, and the eaves A plurality of input ports are arranged on the lower side surface of the cylindrical body, and a funnel body having a hanging tube is attached to the inside of the cylindrical body below the input ports, and the bottom of the cylindrical body can be attached to and removed from the pedestal. A cigarette butt container for outdoor use, characterized in that it is provided in a cigarette butt container and houses a cigarette butt receptacle.

Function By fixing a blind spherical bulging cap to the top surface of the cylindrical body, it is virtually airtight, ensuring smoke-free system and dry internal conditions.
Moreover, together with the eaves provided around the lower part of the blind spherical bulging cap, it is easy to attach and remove the cigarette butts from the pedestal, and the cigarette butts received in the cigarette butt receiver can be easily collected.

The blind spherical bulging cap ensures safety for pedestrians and the like as an outdoor facility.

A blind lid-like spherical bulging cap provided on the top surface of the cylindrical body guides rainwater, water spray, etc. to the circumferential side, and separates it from the cylindrical body through the eaves and allows it to drip along with dust. substantially avoiding intrusion into the cylindrical body and maintaining dry conditions within the cylindrical body under field conditions.

An input port provided on the side of the cylindrical body at the bottom of the eaves ringed at the bottom of the blind-lidded spherical bulging cap allows cigarette butts to be thrown into the cylindrical body, and the inserted cigarette butts are passed through the funnel. The body drops the cigarette butts into the cigarette butt receptacle at the bottom of the cylindrical body.

The hanging tube formed on the funnel body guides the dropping of the cigarette butts, and the smoke generated in the cigarette butt receiver by the dropped cigarette butts in the lit state is convectively swirled in the lower part of the funnel body. This prevents the smoke from leaking out from the opening at the lower end of the hanging tube, and extinguishes the fire in a smokeless state without emitting smoke outside the cylindrical body under dry conditions.

The blind spherical bulging cap and the eaves prevent moisture from adhering to the area around the inlet, thereby preventing ash from cigarette butts from adhering to the area around the inlet and preventing corrosion of the area. , maintain cleanliness and aesthetics.

The cigarette butts stored in the cigarette butt receiver are appropriately collected and cleaned by removing the cylindrical body. As described above, the cigarette butts stored in the receptacle under dry conditions are easily discharged and wiped without adhering to the container or emitting any bad odor.
