' SMOKING-PIPE.

. Application filed May 28,

T0 allwhomz'tmay concern:

Be it known that I, HENRYVJ. MoGUoKIN, a citizen of the United States, and a resi dent of the city of New York, borough of Manhattan, in the county and State of New York, have invented a new and Improved Smoking-Pipe, of which the following is a full, clear, and exact description.

This invention relates to smoking pipes, and has for an object to provide an improved construction wherein the tobacco 1s protected at all times and is positioned so that the'smoke will readily pass out the mouthpiece.

Another object of theinvention is to provide the round shaped bowl with an opening in line with the mouthpiece, whereby a good draft will be produced and the to bacco protected against rain.

In the accompanying drawings Figure 1 is a side view of a smoking pipe disclosing an embodiment ofmy invention. Fig. 2 is a longitudinal vertical section through Fig. 1 on the'line 2.2.

Fig. 3 is fragmentary sectionalview similar to Fig. 2, but showing a modified form of the invention.

Referring to the accompanying drawings by numerals, 1 indicates a mouthpiece which is preferably round in cross section and which is fitted into the stem 2 of the pipe, it being threaded therein or held in place by friction.

section ito present a round or spherical structure. Sectlon 4 1s provlded With an opening fi forentrance of air and also to form of bowl presents not only a pleasing appearance, but also a construction which retains the tobaccoin the bowl and protects the tobacco against rain, dust or other foreign matter. Also it will be noted that smoke will not readily pass from the bowl except through the passageway 6, and consequently the person using thepipe will se- 7 The stem 2 merges into a bowl section 3 which coacts with a bowl Specification of Letters Patent.

cure the advantage of receiving substantially all of the smoke piece 1.' V

In Fig. 3 a modified form of the invention is shown in which the bowl 8 is formed integral throughout. In this form of the invention the tobacco must always be passed through the opening 5, while in the form through the mouthshown in Fig. 2' the tobacco is usually passed downwardly.v In ordinary use the opening 5 and passageway 6 will be in substantially a horizontal plane, though it is evident that the pipe could be smoked when arranged in any position. I

The bowl is formed perfectly smooth and round inside and consequently does away with the nicotin which usually accumulates,

in the bottom of the bowl of a pipe, the nicotin which would ordinarily form burns and passes out with the smoke. When the pipe is made in small sizesit may take the place of the cigar or cigarette by reason of the smallness of the bowl of the pipe,

and will use no more tobacco than will be used in the ordinary cigar or cigarette.

I claim:

1. A smoking pipecomprisinga sphericai bowl, a stem extending radlally from said bowl formedwith a smoke passageway extending in a direction radially of the center of the bowl, a mouthpiece connected with said stem arranged with a smoke passageway in axial alinement with the smoke passageway inthe stein.

2. A smoking pipe comprising a spherical bowl having an opening through which tobacco is adapted to be passed and a stem on the diametrically opposite side of the bowl to said opening, said stem having a smoke passageway therein extending ra dially with respect to the bowl, and a mouthpiece connected with said stem.

3. A smoking pipe comprising an integral spherical bowl formed with an integral stemfradiating therefrom, said bowl having an opening therein diametrically opposite said stem, and said stem having a smoke passageway therein in axial alinement wlth said opening.
