The technical result is achieved - providing users of a multi-seat hookah with the opportunity, during a hookah smoking session, to either tighten or purge the hookah at their discretion due to the fact that the controlled hookah shut-off element includes a normally closed mechanical or electromagnetic valve, functionally connected to the control element, designed for tactile communication with the user. 13 p.p. f-ly, 11 ill.

Description

The purpose of the controlled hookah closure element (hereinafter referred to as UZELK) is to be used in multi-seat hookahs as an independent functional element that opens / closes channels for the movement of smoke / air flows in the hookah.

A shut-off element (uncontrollable) of a multi-seat hookah is known from the prior art.

The shut-off element taken as a prototype is an uncontrolled check valve, which is made in the form of a ball placed in the inner part of the pipe in the form of a truncated cone, on the wall of which there is a stop in the form of a "pin". The movement of the ball in it, on the one hand, is limited by the "pin", on the other - by the narrow opening of the cone. On the side of the narrow part of the cone, the branch pipe is connected to a thin curved tube passing through the base and ending in the area of the flask in which the smoke is collected, and on the side of the wide end - with a flexible hose.

The disadvantage of such a closure element is that it is uncontrollable.

Its use in the construction of a multi-seat hookah completely excludes the possibility of purging.

The technical result from the use of UZELK in a hookah.

The technical result from the use of UZELK in multi-seat hookahs is expressed in the fact that when users tactilely influence the control elements functionally connected with the valves in the UZELK installed in the channels for the movement of smoke / air flows in the hookah, consisting of a pipe connected to each other, a flexible hose, pipe and UZELK, these channels open, as a result of which each user at any time can perform puffs and purge the hookah.

Description of the hookah controlled locking element.

UZELK (see the functional diagram in Fig. 8) includes a control element 11, a valve 12, a valve actuator 13 and a housing 14, where the control element 11 is intended for tactile communication with the user and is functionally connected to the valve actuator 13. In this case, the UZELK is part of the channel for the movement of smoke / air flows in the hookah, consisting of channels connected to each other by a branch pipe 7, a flexible hose 8, a smoking pipe 9 and UZELK 10.

UZELK 10 in all versions has one functional diagram (see Fig. 8), but it can have different designs depending on its location in the hookah (see Figs. 1 - 7).

UZELK 10 can be performed:

- in the form of an independent structural element, consisting of: a control element 11, a valve 12, a valve actuator 13 and a housing 14 having connecting surfaces for fixing either with a flexible hose 8, or with a smoking pipe 9, or with a branch pipe 7 in their various combinations. With this embodiment, the UZELK 10 has its own housing 14 with a control element 11 located on it (for example, a button, an electric switch or a sensor element), which is connected through a valve drive 13 (for example, a leg with a spring or an electromagnet) to a mechanical or solenoid valve 12;

- in the form of an independent structural element, consisting of: a valve 12, a valve actuator 13 connected to the control element 11, and a body 14 having connecting surfaces for fixing either with a flexible hose 8, or with a smoking pipe 9, or with a branch pipe 7 in various their combinations. With this design, the UZELK 10 has its own housing 14 with a mechanical or electromagnetic valve 12 installed inside and a control element 11 (for example, a button, an electrical switch or a sensor element) located on the smoking pipe, which, through a valve drive 13 (for example, a leg with a spring, or electromagnet) is associated with a mechanical or electromagnetic valve 12;

- can be built either inside the smoking pipe 9, or inside the pipe 7, while the pipe 7 and the pipe 9 will serve for UZELK 10 as a housing 14 with a mechanical or electromagnetic valve 12 installed inside. Control element 11 (for example, a button, electric switch or sensor element), located on the smoking pipe, through a valve drive 13 (for example, a leg with a spring or an electromagnet) is connected to a mechanical or solenoid valve 12.

When the UZELK 10 is embedded inside the smoking pipe 9, it is more expedient to perform valve 12 mechanically.

When the UZELK 10 is embedded inside the pipe 7, it is more expedient to make the valve 12 electromagnetic, while between the electromagnetic valve 12 and the control element 11 (made, for example, in the form of an electric switch or a sensor element), located for the convenience of the user on the surface of the smoking pipe 9, through the valve actuator 13 (made, for example, in the form of an electromagnet) electrical, electromagnetic and wave functional connections are formed.

The control element 11 can be made in the form of a mechanical switch (for example, in the form of a button), an electrical switch, or in the form of a touch switch.

The user presses a button or switch with his finger, and touches the sensor element with his lips or a finger (depending on its location).

The valve 12 can be made both as a mechanical valve and as an electromagnetic valve.

The valve actuator 13 can be made both mechanically, driven by the user through a mechanical functional connection with the mechanical control element 11, and electromagnetic, driven by the user through electrical and wave functional connections with the sensor control element 11.

In versions of the UZELK with an electromagnetic drive, the valve drive 13 and the control element 11 additionally contain a power source. Disposable batteries or rechargeable batteries can be used as a power source.

Description of the work of UZELK.

When the user acts on the control element 11, this action through the valve actuator 13 opens the valve 12, as a result of which the channel through the housing 14 opens.

The control element is located on the surface of the body and is made in the form of a button. The valve drive is made in the form of a button leg. The valve is located inside the body and is mechanical in the form of a ball with a spring. When you press the button located on the surface of the body, connected to the button leg, the pressure from the button is transferred to the button leg. As a result of the transfer of this pressure, the spring is squeezed out, the plastic / metal ball is displaced from the passage hole inside the body, thereby opening the channel for the movement of smoke / air flows in the hookah.

UZELK in the hookah shown in Fig. 1.2 is made in the form of an independent structural element, in a plastic / metal case, where one of its ends is made in the form of a "mouthpiece", and the other has a connecting surface for connection with a smoking pipe. The control element located on the smoking pipe is made sensory (for example, in the form of a sensor ring or plate) or in the form of an electric switch and has a power element (battery). The valve is installed inside the body and is made electromagnetic, normally closed. The valve drive is made in the form of an electromagnet. As a result of tactile action on the control element, a signal is transmitted to the solenoid valve installed inside the body through the functional connection, which opens this valve, as a result of which the channel for the movement of smoke / air flows in the hookah is opened.
