UNITED STA MARION SIMMONS, OF CHICAGO, ILLINOIS.
CIGARETTE ROLLER.
Application filed February 1, 1921, Serial No. 441,662. Renewed April 21, 1925.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, MARIoN H. SIMMONS,
a citizen of the United States, residing at Chicago, in the county of Cook and State of Illinois, have invented new and useful Improvements in Cigarette Rollers, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to cigarette rollers and an objectof the invention is to provide" a device for mechanically forming cigarettes which is simple in construction and compact so that it may be conveniently carried in the pocket of the user, and one which, owing to its simplicity, may be manufactured to retail at an attractive cost.
Another object of this invention is to provide a cigarette roller or former which includes a flexible forming member connected to a rotary rod and adapted to be shaped to provide a tobacco receiving pocket and to receive the paper of the cigarette so that when the flexible forming member is rolled upon its carrying rod the cigarette will be evenly and uniformly rolled, and further to provide a device of this nature which, upon the winding of the flexible member, W1ll raise the ci arette in a position to be conveniently ta en from the roller by the user.
Other objects of the invention will appear in the following detailed description and in the accompanyingdrawing wherein: Y 1 Fig. 1 1s a pers 'ective view of the improved cigarette ro er.
Fig. 2 is a perspective v ew of the run proved cigarette roller show ng it in its initial position prior to formlng a cigarette therein.
Fig. 3 is a cross section through the 1mproved roller showing it in position to begin orming a ci arette and illustrating in dotted lines t e manner of forming the .ci arette.
ig. 4 is a longitudinal section through the c1garette roller. Referring more particularly to the drawings, the improved cigarette roller or former comprises a case, 1 formed of any suitable material, preferably of sheet metal, and it has a cover 2 hingedly connected as shown at 3 .to the rear relatively high, edge 4 of the case. A rod 5 extends longitudinally of the case near the forward short sidefi thereof and this rod projects through the end 7 of the case having a washer 8 upon one end outwardly of the end 7 of the case to (prevent longitudinal movement of the r0 5.
A crank handle 9 is formed upon the op posite end of the rod for manually rotating it. A flexible former 10, formed of leather or analogous material is attached to the rod 5 between the end 7 of the case 1, in any suitable manner, and when forming a cigarette with the improvided device this flexible former 10 is pushed downwardly as shown at 11 in Fig. 3 of the drawing to form 'a tobacco receiving pocket after which a cigarette paper 12 of the ordinary type is placed against the outer surface of the ormer with its innermost edge adjacent to ,the tobacco indicated at 13 in the pocket 11. The cover 2 is then closed, folding .the flexi- 10 upon the rod 5 causes the. pocket to de crease and move upwardly towards the cover as indicated in dotted lines in Fig. 3 of the drawing. The cover 2 is provided with longitudinally extending outstruck arcuate portion 14 to accommodate the tobacco and paper of which the cigarette is to be formed, during rolling operation. The winding of the flexible former 10 upon the rod 5 will roll the tobacco 13 and also roll the cigarette paper; Just before the outer edge of the paper 12 enters the case 1 it is moistened causing it to adhere to any part of the cigarette paper after the cigarette is completely formed. When the flexible former 10 is almost within the case 1 the cover 2 may ,be lifted and further rotation of the rod 5 and winding of the flexible former 19 thereon will move the formed cigarette upwardly out of the case into aposition to be conveniently removed by the user.
From the foregoing description taken in connection with the accompanyim drawing it will beapparent that a practicaI cigarette roller or former has been provided which is easy to operate and will uniformly roll cigarettes in a neat compact shape.
It is, of course, to be understood that the end walls, a relatively high side Wall upon one side, a cover hinged to said side wall, a short side wall upon the other side of the casing, a rod extending longitudinally through the casing near the short side wall, a crank handle on one end of the rod, a flexible former having one end attached to the rod and of a width equal to the width of the interior of the casing, a portion of said flexible former being looped to form a receiving pocket; the free end of said former initially positioned over the short side wall with a portionof the former arranged over the pocket whereby turning movement of the rod will wind the former thereon causing the pocket to decrease in size and move toward the cover and said cover having a longitudinally extending outstruck portion to accommodate the closed pocket during the forming of the cigarette.'
In testimony whereof I afiix my signature.
MARION H. SIMMONS.
