MOISTENER.
Application filed April 11, 192'5. Serial No. 22,462.
To alt whom t may concern.'
Be it lrnown that l, JAMEs l. HrNirsoN, a citizen of the United Stat-es, and a resident ot' the city oi New York, boroughof Brooklyn, in the county ot Kings and State of hrew Yoili,'liave invented new and useful Improvements in Moisteners, ot which the following is a full, clear, and exact descrip tion.
This invention relates to inoisteners, and
.has particular reference to inoisteners ot the character used for moistening tobacco products and for fiavcring the tobacco products.
One object of the present invention is to produce an article ot the character inentioned which will obviate the use ol absorbent material. V
Another object of the invention is to produce an article of the character mentioned which is freely movable and in which the inoistening or iiavoring liquid is treo, which embodies means by virtue of which the moisture resulting from the evaporation et the liquid will be liberated, while the liquid is prevented from escaping irrespective oi the position of the. article.
Another object of the invention is the use ot a hollow body ot transparent material so that the inoistening iiuid used may be observed, to the end that the supply may be replenished at the proper time.
lilith the foregoing, other objects oi the invention will appear from the embodiment of the invention which, by way oi' example, vis described in the following specification and illustrated inthe accompanying,v drawing, in which:
Figure 1 is a` side elevation of the moistener oiP4 the present invention;
Fig. 2 is an end elevation;
Fig. 3 is a central longitudinal sectional View through the moistener;
4ig. l is a collective wiew oi'f the several parts of the moistener detached from each other.
Referring now more particularly to the several views of the drawing` 'for all of the details or" the article of the present invention, it will be apparent that the saine coinprises an open-ended hollow body or barrel 10 and a plurality of traps 11, which combine with the hollow body or barrel 10 to A@Online a quantity of liquid, such as water or brandy, and to liberate moisture resulting' from the evaporation of the liquid. In the presentinstance, the hollow body or barrel 10 is preferably round in cross section, and each end is provided with screw threads 12, rihe hollow body or barrel 10 is made preferably of seine suitable transparent material, suoli as glass. Each of the traps 11 comprises a cap or closure inember 13 and a tube or hollow extension 14. The cap or closure 13 is provided with screw threads 15 and is knurled as at 16. The tube 14; is carried by the wall 17 oi" the cap and the same may be attached thereto in any suitable manner, or may be formed integral therewith, as shown, so as to be disposed axially and to extend from one side oit' the wall 17 at tle side which carries the portion having the screw threads 15. The tube 1d in the present instance is tapered with the smallest end., cross-sectionally considered, away from the wall 17. As stated, the traps 11 are identical in construction and one is arranged at each end of the hollow body or barrel 10. Each trap is employed by simply screwing the cap 13 on to the end of the barrel 10 by virtue of the screw threads 12 and 15, respectively, on the barrel end and cap. A suitable resilient gasket 1S is arranged in each cap 13, and is disposed between the wall 1T and the end of the barrel 10 when the cap is screwec home. lVhen the traps 1l are applied to the hollow bodj,7 or barrel 10, the tubes 11i will be in axial alignment and will be disposed interiorly of the hollow bodyT or barrel 10, as most clearly shown in Fig. 3. The caps not only serve to support the tubes 1d, but also serve as closures 'for the opposite ends oie the hollow body or barrel 10. lt is also to be noted that the opposed extremities oi the tubes '11i are in spaced relationship. f
3y removing` one of the traps 11, a quantity or" liquid, such as water or brandy, may be introduced into the barrel 10, alter which the trap may be applied. The barrel 10 is onlv partly filled with the liquid, as shown in Fig. 3. By virtue of the use or" the traps 11, the liquid is held against egress yet the moisture resulting from the evaporation of the liquid will be readily liberated through the tubes 14;. By having` the tubes 14 tapered, it is possible to put more liquid into the barrel 10 than would be possible were the tubes 1st of uniform diameter equal to that at the large end. Egress of the liquid is prevented irrespective o1" the position :in which the article is held, thus making` it easy to place the inoistener in dilierent containers of tobacco products 'for the nioistening thereof. By having the barrel l0 ot' transparent material, the Condit-ion of the moistener may be observed at all times and the proper amount oi liquid may be kept therein. Different kinds of liquid7 such as brandy, may be used for Havering the tobacco, and the use of absorbent material is obviated.
lVhat is claimed is:
A moistener comprising` a hollow bodv open at each end, and traps Which combine respectivebY with the opposite ende oi the body, each trap comprising' a eap reinovabl)v attached to its related end of the body, a tubular nieniber extending lateralhY troni one side o1" the end portion of the cap so as to be disposed internall)v o1" the hollow bodv when the cap is attached, said tubular meniber being ot smaller diameter than the internal diameter ot the hollow body, said tubular nieniber being opened through the end portieri ot the cap, the cape` and tubular members as attached combiningr with the hollow body to confine a cuantitv ot liquid and to liberate inoieiure resulting troni the evaporation et' the liquid and to prevent the cgi ot the liquid.
