Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to an idea of a desk butt receiver by a dry fire extinguishing method, which does not pollute the atmosphere with the burning smoke of the butt under dry conditions and also sufficiently suppresses odors, etc. The present invention aims to provide a desk butt receiver that efficiently extinguishes fire, and has a simple structure and is easy to manufacture.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art If water is used as a method of extinguishing a cigarette butt generated by smoking, a simple and accurate fire extinguishing can be performed, but in this case, it is necessary to store water in a saucer or the like. , It is necessary to pollute the surroundings by scattering and leaking of the stored water, and to frequently exchange the fire extinguishing water to clean it.If this is not done, an unpleasant odor is generated and the user is uncomfortable. , Especially when the water for extinguishing fire is scattered, it is extremely difficult to wipe and deodorize. Moreover, since the collected butts have sufficiently absorbed water, it is not easy to incinerate them.

On the other hand, if the cigarette butt as described above is left as it is, considerable smoke is generated and pollutes the atmosphere.
The present inventor has repeatedly studied extinguishing a cigarette butt under the dry condition as described above, and found that it is not possible to use
No. 00 (Shokai 57-197898), and succeeded in properly extinguishing cigarette butts under dry conditions, and has put it into practical use.

DISCLOSURE OF THE INVENTION Problems to be Solved by the Invention The above-mentioned proposal of the present inventor aims to extinguish a cigarette butt under dry conditions and extinguish the cigarette butt without causing smoke to enter the room, and Cleaning, incineration, and other handling can be facilitated, but since it is a dry fire extinguishing, the burning of the butts continues for a considerable time, and it is considerable to keep the smoke and odor generated continuously in this way in the container. It requires a sealed butler receiver of a size.

Further, according to the proposal of the inventor of the present invention, it is necessary to position the received butts in a position other than immediately below the charging port to accommodate the smoke because the smoke rising from the butts is not leaked to the outside in the cooling container. Therefore, it is necessary to attach a cap-shaped dispersion expanding body at a position just below the charging port, and this is because the dispersion of the sucked butts and the smoke rising from the butts are generated. It is indispensable to keep out from the entrance. However, a considerable number of man-hours are required for the work of mounting such a dispersed and developed portion while holding a predetermined gap immediately below the charging port, and it is difficult to manufacture and assemble it. Moreover, there is a possibility that the butts and the like thrown into the supporting rod or the like for holding the dispersion / deployment portion immediately below the throwing port will hinder the function of bending. In addition, in the case where the above-mentioned dispersion developing unit is attached to the lower side of the charging / discharging port, the overall height from the charging unit becomes considerably high as shown in Japanese Utility Model Publication No. 61-7600, and the stand There is no choice but to use a type of cigarette butts.

It is a matter of course that the diameter of the discharge port is preferably as large as possible in order to smoothly drop the butts discharged from the funnel portion and discharged into the cooling chamber. There is a tendency that some smoke and odors in the room leak out, which limits the increase in the diameter of the discharge pipe or outlet, and it is possible to smoothly drop the butts in the restricted diameter range. It is considered a technique.

Further, since it is necessary to take out and process properly the received butts, it is possible to take out the above-mentioned mechanism set inside, take out the fire and take out the accommodated butts, as described above. If such a buttocks, which are of a height and stand type, fall down, there is a high impact and the decomposable parts are likely to decompose and scatter the butts inside. Even if the cleaning is dry, the problem remains that it is not easy because fine ash is generated.

BEST MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION
More specifically, the present inventors have found that there are two phenomena in the behavior of cigarettes that continue to burn in the cooling chamber, that is, smoke generated from the butts, namely convection and retention. That is, the gas containing smoke or odor generated from the butts has an ascending force under the condition that the temperature immediately after the generation is relatively high and rises in the cooling chamber, and under the condition that the top surface is blocked, it thus rises. When the temperature of the generated gas decreases, it loses its ascending force and eventually settles below the cooling chamber to form a retention state. That is,
In the cooling chamber, there is a turbulent flow around the butts during the normal combustion, but generally there is an upflow and a downflow due to the gas that sinks from the top (of course the specific gravity is large). It was confirmed that stagnation and retention were confirmed at the bottom, and it can be said that fire extinguishing and smoke extinguishing without leaking smoke and odor can be achieved by effectively utilizing the ascending and descending flows and the accumulating state.

Further, the present inventors have found that the above-mentioned upflow,
If the downstream flow is properly divided and generated as convection, it is not a stand-type but a low-profile desk-type butts receiver, and even if a considerably large amount of butts are put into the cooling chamber during combustion. It has been known that smoke can be effectively eliminated in a smokeless and odorless state. That is, as compared with the case where the inlet part and the outlet part are set in a cooling chamber having a diameter of 15 cm and a height of about 10 cm with the convection and retention phenomenon as described above, four smokers each have a short length. It is presumed that even if a large number of butts are sequentially added every hour, the oxygen content in the staying portion will be significantly reduced and the fire extinguishing will be accelerated under at least the above-mentioned staying conditions. Also, it was recognized that the fire extinguishing function tends to be improved by mass injection.

The present invention is based on the above-mentioned practical confirmation, and has a structure which is simple and easy to manufacture so as to obtain a preferable operation. A concrete example thereof will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings. Then, as shown in FIG. 1, the attempt to extinguish the cooling by putting the cigarette butt 7 which is still ignited immediately after smoking into the cooling chamber 1 through the charging port body 3 is as described above by the present inventor. The same as the prior art, but in the present invention, the discharge port body 4 continuously provided to the charging port body 3 is curved laterally in the cooling chamber 1 to be located outside the region directly below the charging port 3. Protruding outlet 4
1 sideways and as a diameter smaller than the diameter of the charging port body 3, for example, as a discharging port 41 whose diameter is about ½ of the charging port 30 (a quarter in area). It is opened toward.

Further, in the case of FIG. 1, a rising portion 11 is formed at the upper end of the cooling chamber 1 for locking the mounting of the charging port body 3 to the cooling chamber 1. Part 3
1 is formed so as to form a substantially effective sealing relationship with the inner wall of the cooling chamber 1, and smoke or odors from the butts rising along the inner surface of the outer wall of the cooling chamber 1 are liable to contact with the inner wall surface of the charging port body 3. While flowing toward the center of the cooling chamber 1, the specific gravity is increased due to the cooling effect of the outside air, and the structure is moved in the direction toward the center of the cooling chamber 1 also by the pushing of the subsequent upward flow, and thus the cooling chamber 1 It is designed to form a descending flow in the central part.

The discharge port body 4 is attached to the charging port 30 of the charging port body 3 with a fitting port 40, and a discharge port 41 is formed in the discharge port body 4, the discharge port 41 being illustrated. As shown in FIG. 1, the opening is projected outside the region directly below the charging port 30 and the opening position of the discharging port 41 is at a sufficient distance from the outer wall of the cooling chamber 1, that is, the cooling chamber is planar. A position closer to the charging port 30 than an intermediate position between the outer wall and the charging port 30 does not hinder the rising smoke flow (b) from the butts 7 and prevents the rising smoke flow from flowing into the discharge port 41. .

Further, in the present invention, the above-mentioned discharge port body 4 is provided with the above-mentioned discharge ports 41 on both sides of the fitting port 40, and therefore, the discharge port body 3 of the discharge port body 4 is provided. In addition, the set state with respect to the cooling chamber 1 is effectively balanced even if the discharge port 41 is curved as described above, and the distribution protrusion 42 is provided in the middle portion of the discharge ports 41, 41 thus branched. Is formed and the charging port body 3 is formed.
The butts 7 dropped from the charging port 30 are appropriately divided and distributed, and are uniformly supplied to the discharging ports 41. That is, the discharge port 4
Although the diameter of 1 is reduced as described above, since it is distributed and dropped into the cooling chamber 1 as described above, the butts 7 are received in a state substantially close to the general inside of the cooling chamber 1. The distribution ridge 42 does not need to be an acute-angled ridge, and may be formed with an appropriate arc, and in short, may be one that distributes the inserted butts to each discharge port 41.

The discharge port body 4 is separately shown in FIGS. 2 and 3, and the receiving port 40 fitted to the charging port 30 has a reasonably large diameter, but the receiving port 40 is gradually reduced in diameter to a small diameter. That is, the discharge port 41 is opened laterally after the above-described curvature and diameter reduction are combined, and the area of the discharge port 41 is 1/3 or less of the area of the receiving port 40. Has been done. It should be noted that such a discharge port body 4 may be replaced by a circular discharge port body 41a as shown in FIG. 6 instead of a circular cross section as shown in FIGS.

The charging port 30 of the charging port body 3 is formed in a circular shape so as to fit with the receiving port 40 as described above, and the peripheral portion of the charging port body 3 has a radial direction. The butts receiving portion 32 is arranged so as to allow the butts during smoking to be temporarily supported, and the slant-shaped inclined portion 33 is provided inside the portion where the butts receiving portion 32 is arranged. The charging port 30 is opened through the.

Regarding the cooling chamber 1, the middle portion is bulged in a duller shape to secure a distance to the discharge port 41 arranged as shown in FIG. 1 toward the middle portion, and the cooling chamber 1 as a body is also provided. It is preferable to secure the strength of. Although the support seat 12 is formed on the bottom of the cooling chamber 1 and set on the table, the support seat 12 may be provided with support projections such as support legs as appropriate.

The butts receiver made lower than that shown in FIG. 1 according to the present invention is as shown in FIGS. 7 and 8 separately. The height is about 40% lower than that of FIGS. It is about 20% larger, and it is clear that it will be more stable as a tabletop type because of its low posture and large diameter. The line-shaped decoration part 5 and the dot-shaped decoration part 6 can be appropriately arranged in the insertion port body 3.

As shown in FIG. 7 and as shown separately in FIG. 9, the engaging projection 8 is provided on the outer surface of the rising portion 11 of the cooling chamber 1, while the hanging portion 31 on the circumferential side of the charging port body 3 is L-shaped. In order to install the rising portion 11 in the hanging portion 31 of the charging port body 3, the engaging structure 9 is formed so as to receive the engaging projection 8 on opposite sides. The engaging projection 8 is locked in the engagement notch 9 so that the charging port body 3 is attached to the cooling chamber 1.
Can be kept from leaving.

Further, according to the present invention, the inner bulging portions 43, 43 are formed in order to sufficiently reduce the portion of the discharge port 41 of the discharge port body 4 in the plane of the fitting port 40 as shown in FIGS. 10 and 11. By arranging them as opposed to each other, the discharge port 41 is arranged so as to adjust the direction of the charged shell 7 and discharge it. Limits external emissions of.

The fire extinguishing operation of the present invention as described above is typically as shown in FIG.
The butts 7 thrown into the cooling chamber 1 from the above are discharged and dropped toward the bottom of the side wall of the cooling chamber 1 by being biased in the discharging direction by the curve of the discharge port 41 as shown by the arrow a, and around the bottom corner of the cooling chamber 1. It is as described above that the particles are deposited and fallen on and are properly distributed by the both discharge ports 41, 41. Further, the smoke generated by the combustion of the cigarette butts 7 rises as shown by an arrow b under a high temperature condition, and the one that is continuously cooled to the ring-shaped top end 34 of the charging port body 3 and is cooled is inclined. Surface 3
3 causes a convection phenomenon of falling along the inner surface of the cooling chamber 3, that is, what is stagnantly cooled has a large specific gravity and drops in the cooling chamber 1 sequentially, and a retention layer is formed at the bottom of the cooling chamber 1. However, the stagnation is held in the cooling chamber 1, and the volume of the smoke component is reduced by being cooled in such a holding state in the cooling chamber and remains held in the bottom of the cooling chamber 1. . It should be noted that such reduction and concentration of smoke components at the bottom of the cooling chamber is sufficiently confirmed in the state of fouling of the butts and the like discharged and accumulated in the portion.

According to the present invention as described above, in the case where the as-ignited butts are received from the charging port into the cooling chamber and cooled to extinguish the fire, the discharging port provided continuously to the charging port is branched. Each of them is bent to the side to project outward from just below the charging port, and the discharge port has a smaller diameter than the charging port, so the ignition butts injected from the charging port are appropriately distributed without being concentrated in a part. It is then dropped into the cooling chamber, the cooling chamber is effectively used to extinguish the cooling, and the flow of smoke rising from the input ignition butts is also appropriately dispersed and formed in the cooling chamber, effectively providing the cooling effect. By appropriately forming a falling flow of cooling smoke, a fire extinguishing action utilizing convection in the cooling chamber can be effectively obtained.

By forming the partition ridges for distributing the butts put into the branch portion to the respective outlets, the above-mentioned distributing action can be appropriately obtained. The partition ridge does not need to be a ridge and may be circular in cross section, but in any case, it acts to guide the charged butts to any of the outlets. The number of outlets is not only 2 but 3
One or more pieces can be arranged at angular intervals such as 120 °, 90 °, or 60 °, and the partition ridges are arranged and formed in accordance with the arrangement intervals of the discharge ports.

By having the cooling chamber body, the charging port body, and the discharging port body, it is possible to easily take out the butts which are appropriately disassembled and accommodated, and the charging port body is provided on the top of the cooling chamber body. Is detachably mounted, and the receiving port of the discharge port body having the branched discharge port is fitted to the input port formed in the charging port body, and the branched discharge port of the discharge port body is cooled by the cooling. Since the chamber body is opposed to the middle portion, basically no special detail members are required, and the chamber body is properly formed by the three body body, and the assembling thereof is facilitated to obtain the dry fire extinguisher shell easily.

The upper part of the cooling chamber is curved and narrower than the middle part, and the discharge outlets which are branched and opposed to each other are located in the middle part of the cooling chamber, which is suitable for a relatively short tabletop type. A relatively small-sized inlet port body is attached to the cooling chamber, and smoke generated from the butts is guided in the inner diameter direction of the cooling chamber at the upper portion of the discharge port to contribute to convection in the cooling chamber.

A ring-shaped top surface portion projecting upward from the top side of the cooling chamber body is annularly provided in the radial middle portion of the charging port body, and a slanting pot-shaped inclined surface is formed inside the ring-shaped top surface portion. By providing a charging port for attaching the discharge port body, the smoke generated from the butts is appropriately guided in the cooling chamber as described above, and the convection due to the generated smoke is generated. Form. That is, the smoke generated in the upper part of the cooling chamber is guided to the inside of the cooling chamber, and is introduced into the ring-shaped top surface part that is annularly provided, and in this part, the air cooling effect is appropriately obtained to reduce the volume and reduce the downflow due to the increase in specific gravity. In combination with the pushing action due to the upward flow outside the cooling chamber, the cooling smoke formed on the inner surface of the slanting pot-shaped inclined surface inside the ring-shaped top surface portion and sent to the inner diameter side is sequentially transferred to the bottom portion of the cooling chamber. In this way, the smoke flow is appropriately divided and the convection is effectively formed, so that an accurate dry fire extinguishing can be achieved in the butt receiving by the low tabletop formation.

The area of the receiving port in the discharge port body is three times or more the area of the discharge port, and since the discharge port side is gradually narrowed to form, the falling direction of the butts inserted from the charging port body is It discharges into the cooling chamber after being kept constant, and the downward flow of the cooled smoke component that flows down the central part of the cooling chamber along the lower surface of the slanted pot-like inclined surface as described above is effectively supplied to the bottom of the cooling chamber and curved downward. Try to avoid backflow to the sloping outlet.

As a concrete design and manufacturing example according to the present invention as described above, in the structure shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the inner diameter of the middle portion of the cooling chamber 1 is 150 mm and the inner diameter of the rising portion 11 in the upper portion is 120 mm. And the height is 1
With respect to the metal cooling chamber 1 having a size of 0.5 mm, the ring-shaped top end 34 in the radial direction as the charging port body 3 projects 11 mm from the top side of the cooling chamber 1, and the inner diameter of the charging port 30 is 40 mm and the discharging port is As shown in FIG. 2, the discharge outlet 41 of the body 4 having a circular cross section with an inner diameter of 16 mm was used, and 5 smokers lit and smoked cigarettes against the cigarette butts to about 40 mm. The fire extinguishing condition was examined by throwing in one after another.
In other words, according to the results of this study, it was confirmed that smoke was hardly emitted from the butts in spite of being a dry fire extinguishing system, and that effective fire extinguishing could always be achieved. It was confirmed that favorable use can be made under the condition that smoking is performed. In addition, it was possible to smoothly incinerate the collected cigarette butts.

In the structure shown in FIGS. 7 and 8, the cooling chamber 1 has an inner diameter of 180 mm and a height of 8 mm.
The fire extinguishing state of the one with a thickness of 5 mm is almost the same as that of FIGS. 1 and 2 described above, and it was confirmed that the fire extinguishing can be achieved under a proper dry condition even in a low posture.

According to the present invention as described above, an appropriate convection action is realized in a short desk-type butts receiver.
It can achieve the purpose of dry fire extinguishing accurately, has a simple structure, is easy to manufacture and handle, and because it is short and short, it is unlikely to be laid down like a stand-type one. It is clear that the resulting cigarette butt has little effect such as scattering, and it is an invention having a great effect industrially.
