PIPE AND LIKE STEM,

. App1ication filed April 15, .1920. Serial No. 374,148. I

To aZZ wit-omit may concern:

Be it known that I, ALVIN AMos Cross- MAN, a citizenof the United States, residing at Vernon, in the county of Wilbarger an 'State of Texas, have invented certain new prevent saliva from running down the boreof the stem, thus overcoming a number of well known disadvantages and difficulties heretofore encountered.

With the foregoing in view, the invention resides in the .novel stem hereinafter described and claimed, the descriptive matter being supplemented by the accompanying drawings.

Figures 1 and 2 are side elevations partly in section, showing the application of my invention to both straight and curved stem pipes. I V

Fig. 3 is a longitudinal section of a cigarette holder constructed in accordance with my invention.

Fig. 4 is a sectional View of a cigar holder embodying the improved details of construction.

the rear end of one of the stems.

In the drawings above brieflydescribed, the numeral 1 designates a one-piece stem constructed in accordance with my invention, and such stem may be used on numerous forms of pipes, or as cigarette and cigar holders. In all cases,'the rear end of the stem is provided on its upperside with an integral, preferably rounded, projection 2.

Fig. 5 is-a sectional perspective view of whose front side is'provided at a point con .t1guous to the stem, with a transverse slot 3,0r other suitable opening. The bore 4 of T T NT OFFICE} Specification of Letters Patent. Patented 22, 1921. I

the stem 1 turns upwardly at its rear end I as seen at 5, within the rear portion of the projection2 and then turns forwardly and downwardly as indicated at 6, opening into the slot or the like 3. ,By'this formation, it is impossible for any salivato run down the bore 4 and come in contact with the tobacco. e

' From the foregoing, it will be obvious that although my invention is of extremely simple and inexpensive nature, it will be i l highly efficient andin every way desirable,

particular emphasis being laid upon the. fact that the projection 2 not only permits formaf tion of the bore in the required manner, but

serves to abut the 'users teeth so that the stem is prevented from sliding from the mouth. Since probably thebest results may be obtained-from the exact structure shown, such structure is preferred, butlwithin the scope of the invention as claimed, minorchanges may of course be made.

. I; claim:

1. A smoking stem having a projection extending upwardly from-its rear end, said stem having a longitudinal bore whose" rear end extends upwardly into said projection and then turns forwardly and downwardly, opening through said projection at a point adjacent the upper side of the stem;

' smoking stem having an integral enlargement extending upwardly from its rear end andjprovided at a point adjacent. I said-stem with a transverse slot, saidst em having a longitudinal bore whose rear end extends upwardl into said projection and then extends forwardly and downwardly, opening into said slot.

Intestimony whereof I havehereunto-set my. hand. I V
