Description

The claimed utility model relates to the field of smoking devices and is intended to increase the level of comfort for smoking tobacco, as well as special smoking mixtures using a special device - a hookah.

One of the most common ways to use the hookah is to smoke it in order to create a relaxing atmosphere in the company, conducive to communication and spending time together.

Hookahs have a long history, so most of the hookahs used in the world have the following design [see. https://ru.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hookah]: a flask for a liquid, a long hollow tube called a shaft in hookahs, a base that serves as a cork for the flask and at the same time is a supporting element for both the shaft and purging system, and for the branch pipe, to which a flexible hose with a smoking pipe at the end is attached, a heating unit that includes a bowl for the smoking mixture, and may also have a saucer that protects against accidental falling of coals on the table.

The lower end of the shaft is immersed in a flask for liquid, on the upper end there is a heating unit for producing smoke. A flexible hose with a smoking pipe is connected to the pipe.

At the same time, the above-described construction of the hookah still has a significant drawback: it is single and is designed for comfortable smoking by only one user.

Hookah users (hereinafter referred to as users) who smoke hookah in a company have to wait for their turn and pass each other a hookah pipe, which is very inconvenient.

When the next user touches the smoking pipe with his lips, it can be contaminated with pathogens and, in order to avoid it, hookah users are forced to change individual nozzles (mouthpieces) on this pipe every time they transfer the smoking pipe.

Also, a significant disadvantage when using a single hookah by several users is that when transferring a tube with a flexible hose, this hose can touch objects next to the hookah, which may fall, and thereby create inconvenience.

From the prior art, multi-seat hookahs with several pipes for connecting smoking pipes are known (https://www.kalyan4u.ru/hook/kalyan-na-2-trubki/), which have common disadvantages, namely: smoking such hookahs (pulling ) only one person can at a time, and the rest of the users of such hookahs, who do not inhale smoke at the time of smoking the hookah, must block the access of air to the flask, for example, plug the hole in the smoking pipe with a finger, or squeeze the flexible hose. If this is not done, the smoker will draw in mainly smokeless air passing through the open smoking pipe of another user, and not the smoke, which, as a result of smoldering tobacco in the bowl, should enter the user through the hookah shaft, overcoming the resistance of the liquid in the flask.

If there is a long interval between puffs by users of both single and multi-seat hookahs, then smoke stagnates in the flask and a musty smell is created.

The solution adopted for the prototype (see patent US 8573229) describes the design of a multi-seat hookah. From the drawings and descriptions to them, it follows that this hookah has a flask, a shaft, a block for receiving smoke, a base, flexible hoses with smoking pipes at the ends. In the above-described design, the base also serves as a stopper for the flask and at the same time is a supporting element for the shaft, and for the purging system, and for the nozzles to which flexible hoses with smoking pipes at the ends are attached.

New in this design is that two or more branch pipes are installed in the base with uncontrolled non-return valves (ball) built into them, which allow smoke to pass only in one direction.

Thus, the peripheral passages associated with the hoses of hookah users who are not currently breathing smoke are essentially closed by balls. The thrust created by the inhaling user automatically closes the valves in all pipes and opens in the pipe connected to his own smoking pipe.

The disadvantage of this hookah design is that such a design completely excludes the possibility of blowing the hookah (blowing the hookah is carried out by supplying air to the inside of the flask through the smoking pipe and flexible hose and is necessary to remove stagnant smoke from the flask through the blowing system, as a result of which unpleasant odors from stagnant smoke in the flask (hereinafter - Purge)).

The above problem - the inability to purge a multi-seat hookah was solved by the author of the proposed technical solution “Multi-seat hookah with controlled shut-off elements”.

The tasks that the claimed technical solution solves are to create a multi-seat hookah structure with controllable locking elements built into the "nozzle, flexible hose, smoking pipe" systems for each user, which, ultimately, will make it possible to comfortably, without performing complex manipulations like to smoke one hookah for several users at the same time, and at the same time to comfortably blow the hookah.

Technical results from using the proposed solution.

A new design of a multi-seat hookah has been created (Fig. 1 - Fig. 7), which uses controlled locking elements (hereinafter UZELK), functionally (where the definition "functionally" means "serving a certain purpose, purpose" (see "Explanatory Dictionary of the Russian Language" edited by D. N. Ushakov (1935-1940), electronic library) built into the hookah "nozzle, flexible hose, smoking pipe" system and having control elements intended for tactile action by the user. of his UZELK, during this tactile impact, a channel for the passage of smoke / air flows opens, as a result of which each user gets, firstly, the opportunity to purge a multi-seat hookah, and, secondly, the ability to independently decide when to take a puff, and when to purge.

In Fig.1 - Fig.7 and in the description the following numbering of hookah elements is used:

1 - block for receiving smoke,

2 - mine,

3 - flask for liquid,

4 - the space of the flask,

5 - base,

Description of the proposed solution of the hookah.

A multi-seat hookah with controllable shut-off elements 10 (see Fig. 1-Fig. 7.), which includes nozzles 7, flexible hoses 8, smoking pipes 9, a shaft 2, a flask for liquid 3, with a base 5 installed in its neck, including in itself a purge system 6; block for receiving smoke 1, located above the shaft 2, the base 5, which carries the shaft 2, the blowing system 6 and more than one pipe 7. This hookah has closed channels for the movement of smoke / air flows, each of which includes a pipe 7 , a flexible hose 8, a smoking pipe 9 and a controlled closure element 10, functionally connected to the control element 11. The control element 11 is designed for tactile action by the user, during which the controlled closure element opens a closed channel for the movement of smoke / air streams.

The block for producing smoke 1 includes, for example: a saucer, a tip, a bowl for a smoking mixture and a calaud for coals (for the present invention, a complete set of a block for producing smoke does not require a detailed description).

Base 5 contains shaft 2, purge system 6 and more than one branch pipe 7.

The block for receiving smoke 1 is installed above the shaft 2 (in the upper part of the hookah).

The shaft 2 is hermetically installed in the base 5, and this base 5, in turn, is hermetically connected to the neck of the flask 3.

In the structure of the hookah, if the user wants to reduce the number of channels for the movement of smoke / air flows in the hookah, plugs can be added, which occupy the base 5 of the system, consisting of a pipe 7, a flexible hose 8, a smoking pipe 9 and UZELK 10 with a functionally connected with it the control element 11.

Each UZELK 10 has a control element 11 located on the outer surface of either the UZELK 10 or the smoking pipe 9 and is functionally connected to the UZELK 10.

The control elements 11 can be made either in the form of a button, or in the form of an electrical switch, or in the form of a sensor element.

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

The valve drive can be either mechanical, 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 control element 11.

The location of UZELK 10 in the system (pipe 7, flexible hose 8, smoking pipe 9) can be determined based on the design requirements of hookahs, as a result of which UZELK 10 and control elements 11 can be located in the system (pipe 7, flexible hose 8, smoking pipe 9) in any of the following options:

- UZELK is located at the end of the smoking pipe, and the control element is located on the UZELK body (see Fig. 1.1);

- UZELK is located at the end of the smoking pipe, and the control element is located on the surface of the smoking pipe (see Fig. 1.2);

- UZELK is built between the parts of the smoking pipe, and the control element is located on the UZELK body (see Fig. 2.1);

- UZELK is built between the parts of the smoking pipe, and the control element is located on the surface of the smoking pipe (see Fig.2.2);

- UZELK is built into the smoking pipe, the control element is located on the smoking pipe body (see Fig. 3);

- UZELK is located between the smoking pipe and a flexible hose, the control element is located on the UZELK body (see Fig. 4.1);

- UZELK is located between the smoking pipe and the flexible hose, the control element is located on the surface of the smoking pipe (see Fig. 4.2);

- UZELK is built between the parts of the flexible hose, and its control element is located on the smoking pipe (see Fig. 5);

- UZELK is located between the flexible hose and the branch pipe, and its control element is located on the smoking pipe (see Fig. 6);

- UZELK is built into the pipe, and its control element is located on the smoking pipe (see Fig. 7).

Description of the hookah's work.

After the hookah is assembled and warmed up, users pick up the smoking pipes 9 and contact the control element 11 (or press a button or switch, or touch the sensor element with their lips / finger).

As a result of contact with the control element 11, the UZElK 10 opens. With the opening of the UZElK 10, a channel for the passage of smoke flows (in Fig. 8, the smoking channel is shown in red) and air (in Fig. 9, the channel for purging is shown in blue) into the flask opens or from a flask, depending on whether the user inhales smoke or purges the hookah.

The smoking channel passes from the block for receiving smoke 1 through the shaft 2, then through the liquid layer in the flask 3, then through the space of the flask 4, then through the system (pipe 7, flexible hose 8, smoking pipe 9 and UZELK 10 opened by the user ), - into the user's mouth.

The channel for purging passes through the system (nozzle 7, flexible hose 8, smoking pipe 9 and UZELK 10 opened by the user) in reverse order, then through the space of flask 4, and then through the purge system 6.

Users either inhale smoke, as a result of which a vacuum (vacuum) is created in the space of the flask 4, which closes the valve in the purge system 6 and then the movement of smoke, overcoming the resistance of the liquid in the flask, proceeds along the "red" route, or purge is carried out, as a result of which in In the space of the flask 4, an overpressure is created, which opens the valve in the purge system 6 and the air then moves along the "blue" route.
