【Example】

 Embodiments of the present invention will be described below in detail with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 is a sectional view of the cigarette smoke cleaning device of the present invention, and FIG. 2 is a perspective view thereof. The cigarette smoke cleaning device 1 of the present invention shown in these figures has the following configuration. That is, the cigarette smoke cleaning tool 1 has a tubular body 2 made of a heat-resistant material such as ceramic. A through hole 3 is formed in the entire cylindrical body 2 including the closed end surface. Various shapes such as an elliptical shape, a round shape, and a rhombic shape are conceivable as the shape of the through hole 3, and the shape is not particularly limited to these shapes. Good. Inside the cylindrical body 2, a smoke filtering member 5 sandwiched between metal nets 4a and 4b is arranged. As the material of the smoke filtering member 5, various materials such as glass fiber, acetate and activated carbon can be adopted. In addition, only the above-mentioned filtration member 5 is formed in conformity with the inner diameter of the tubular body 2, and the molded body is inserted into the tubular body 2, whereby the metal mesh 4a for sandwiching the smoke-filtration member 5 is formed. , 4b can be omitted.

A tobacco support member 7 having a collar 6 is fixed to the open end of the cylindrical body 2. That is, the first tubular portion 8a and the second tubular portion 8b are formed on the left and right in the figure with the collar 6 as a boundary, and the first tubular portion 8a is inserted into the end portion of the tubular body 2 and fixed. . It should be noted that screwing or the like is not particularly performed, and the state is fixed by fitting in consideration of the dimensional tolerance with the inner diameter of the cylindrical body 2. On the other hand, the second tubular portion 8b side is used as an insertion end portion of the external filter 9. Or, in the case of so-called filter-equipped cigarettes that have a filter on the cigarette itself, it is used to support the paper wrapping part other than the filter.

Next, the method of use and operation of the cigarette smoke cleaning tool 1 having the above-described configuration will be described. First, the ignition portion 11 is formed by mounting the rear end portion of the filter-equipped cigarette 10 on the cigarette support member 7 and igniting the front end portion of the cigarette 10 with a lighter or the like. Then, the cigarette 10 is inserted into the tubular body 2 together with the first tubular portion 8a. It suffices for the smoker to smoke the cigarette 10 while holding the tubular body 2 in such a state. In this case, since the ignition part 11 is covered with the tubular body 2, so-called fire retention is good, and the smoking time can be made relatively longer than in the normal case.

On the other hand, when the smoker is not smoking, smoke is emitted from the ignition part 11. In such a case, the smoke 12 generated from the ignition part 11 first reaches the smoke filter member 5 sandwiched between the metal nets 4a and 4b. Then, after the harmful substances such as nicotine and tar contained in the smoke are filtered by the smoke filtering member 5, they are guided to the outside through the through hole 3 provided in the cylindrical body 2 and diffused. Further, although the ignition part 11 remains as ash and falls spontaneously after the smoking time elapses, it is safe because it falls into the cylinder 2 and is prevented from falling outside. Further, even if a smoker smokes in the crowd, the ignition part 11 of the cigarette is protected by the tubular body 2, so accidents due to contact with third parties can be avoided, and it can be used as a safety device. can do. If the smoke filtering member 5 disposed inside the tubular body 2 becomes dirty, if the entire cigarette smoke cleaning tool 1 is washed with water or the like, the water or the like will be removed through the through hole 3 of the tubular body 2. Since it circulates between the outside, the smoke filtering member 5 itself is cleaned and can be used for a long time.

Next, another embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS. 3 and 4. This example shows a cigarette smoke cleaning device designed to filter smoke generated from chopped tobacco filled in a pipe. That is, the pipe 13 is provided with a saucer portion 14 which is communicated with the internal flue and has the tip end filled with the chopped tobacco 14. A male screw 16 is engraved on the outer peripheral portion of the tray portion 14.

A cap body 18 having an internal circumference on which an internal thread 17 to be screwed with the external thread is formed is formed of a heat-resistant member such as ceramic. A large number of through holes 21 are provided in the top surface portion 19 of the cap body 18. A smoke filtering member 21 for filtering harmful substances generated from the smoke of the chopped tobacco 15 is disposed inside the cap body 18. The smoke filtering member 21 can be made of any one of glass fiber, acetate, activated carbon and the like, like the smoke filtering member 5 in the above embodiment. Further, the smoke filter member 21 is also structured to be sandwiched by the wire nets 4a and 4b, as in the above-described embodiment.

By capping the tip of the pipe 13 with the cap body 18 having the above-described structure, the smoker can enjoy smoking by using the mouthpiece 22 of the pipe 13 while filling the saucer portion 14 with the smoke. The smoke generated from the chopped tobacco 15 is discharged to the outside from the through hole 20 provided in the top surface portion 19 of the cap body 18 through the smoke filtering member 21 inside the cap body 18. Therefore, the harmful substances generated from the smoke of the chopped tobacco 15 are effectively removed by the smoke filtering member 21, and the smoker also has the effect of making the chopped tobacco 15 last longer. Incidentally. The cap body 18 may be simply covered without being screwed to the pipe 13.

Next, a third embodiment of the present invention is shown in FIG. In this embodiment, the tubular body 23 is interposed in the middle portion of the pipe 13. Inside the cylindrical body 23, as in the first and second embodiments, a smoke filtering member sandwiched by a metal net is inserted. In the third embodiment, the harmful substances from the smoke generated from the chopped tobacco 15 filled in the saucer portion 14 cannot be removed, but the smoke leaks to the outside when passing through the flue and the smoker. Has a function as a filter.

Although the three embodiments have been described above, the shapes of the cylinders 2 and 23 of the present invention are not limited to the shapes of the above embodiments, and various modifications can be made. Further, although the tobacco support member 7 is provided as a separate body in the first embodiment, it may be formed integrally with the tubular body 2.
