Description

[Detailed description of the invention] The invention relates to an ashtray that can hold a cigarette so that it does not go out.

Conventional ashtrays have an insertion hole in the ashtray that is wider at the entrance and narrower at the bottom than the diameter of the cigarette, and when a lit cigarette is inserted into this insertion hole, the cigarette sticks to the peripheral wall of the insertion hole and extinguishes the flame. In the former type of ashtray, a cigarette is inserted into the insertion hole and the cigarette is inserted into the insertion hole and then re-smoked. When using an ashtray, you have to relight the flame, which is a hassle, and when the fire spreads, the cigarettes fall from the support and cause a fire.

Therefore, this idea was devised to create an ashtray that would not go out even when a cigarette was inserted, and would not fall out even if the fire continued to burn.

Next, the structure of the proposed ashtray will be explained with reference to the drawings of the embodiment.
A top wall 3 is provided at the top of the ashtray 1 and faces the bottom wall 2 at an appropriate distance, and the top wall 3 is provided with one or more cigarette insertion holes 4 that are one size larger than the diameter R of the cigarette T. Two or more cigarette locking claws 5 are provided approximately equally on the lower part of the inner circumference 4a of the hole 4. Specifically, the lower end of the insertion hole 4 is 1 inch smaller than the diameter R of the cigarette.
The circumference is large, the upper part of the insertion hole 4 is wider than the lower end, and the depth H of the insertion hole 4 is larger than the diameter R of the cigarette.
The locking pawl 5 protrudes toward the center from the inner periphery 4a of the insertion hole 4, and is wedge-shaped so that it protrudes most at the lower end.
The frame 2 circle p inscribed in the tip of the locking claw 5 is smaller than the diameter R of the cigarette.

Since the proposed ashtray has the above structure, a lit cigarette T is inserted downward from the entrance of the insertion hole 4 provided in the upper wall 3 of the ashtray 1.
The insertion hole 4 is one size larger than the diameter R of the cigarette T, but since there is a locking claw 5 protruding inside the lower part of the insertion hole 4, the cigarette T inserted into the insertion hole 4 will It is inserted into the insertion hole 4 until the combustion part is locked with the locking pawl 5, and the lit part is held in the insertion hole 4.

As mentioned above, the insertion hole 4 is larger than the diameter R of the cigarette, and the locking claws 5 are provided at approximately equal intervals. There is a gap A between
occurs, and air convection is possible through gap A.
The cigarette T inserted into the insertion hole 4 burns gradually without being extinguished, and it does not emit smoke and burn as in the conventional case where a lit cigarette is placed on the support part of an ashtray.

As the cigarette T inserted into the insertion hole 4 burns with all its might,
The tip of the cigarette T that is locked in the locking part 5 of the insertion hole 4 becomes the bottom part t.

Since this edge part t does not have enough force to support the cigarette T continuous to the upper part, while pushing the edge part t continuous to the lower part of the cigarette T below the insertion hole 4 from the locking position, the cigarette T is The insertion hole 4 is inserted naturally so that the end combustion part is supported and locked in the locking pawl 5.
In other words, as the fire progresses and the length t of the cigarette increases, the cigarette T enters the insertion hole 4, and the length t of the cigarette T enters the insertion hole 4.
It falls into the ashtray 1.

Therefore, the proposed ashtray has an insertion hole one size larger than the diameter of a cigarette in the earthen wall, and cigarette locking claws are provided at approximately equal intervals on the lower part of the inner circumference of the insertion hole. Even if the cigarette is inserted into the insertion hole of the ashtray, the cigarette is inserted into the insertion hole that is larger in diameter than the insertion hole, and is supported by the locking claws that project at intervals, so that the cigarette is supported with a space that allows air convection. Therefore, a cigarette inserted into the insertion hole does not go out and burns gradually with almost no smoke coming out.

As a result, since the lit cigarette is inserted into the insertion hole of the ashtray, unlike ashtrays where cigarettes are placed on the support, the cigarette will not fall out of the support and cause a fire. When re-smoking the cigarette inserted into the ashtray insertion hole,
This invention is particularly effective as an ashtray for automobiles that are used to smoke while driving, as there is no need to light the ashtray.
