ROBERT S. BLAIR, OF SOUND BEACH, CONNECTICUT.
ASH RECEIVER.
Application led April 27,
This invention relates to ash receivers or trays and mountings therefor.
One of the objects of the present invention is to provide a relatively inexpensive ash receiver or ash tray of simple and practical construction.y Another object is to provide a compactly-disposed device of the above general character which may be conveniently used. Another object is to provide a device of the above character which may be quickly vemptied without removal from its support. A further object is to provide an ash tray with means for quickly and thoroughly removing the ashes from cigars or cigarettes without injury to the .wrapper as the ashes are removed.
Other objects will be in part obvious from the annexed drawings and in part indicated in connection therewith by the following analysis of this invention.
This invention accordingly consists in the featuresy of construction, combination of parts and in the unique relations of the members and in the relative proportioning and disposition thereof; all as more completely outlined herein.
To enable others skilled in the art so fully to comprehend the underlying features thereof that they may embody the same by the numerous modifications in structure and relation contemplated by this invention, drawings depicting a preferred form have been annexed as an illustrative embodiment as a part of this disclosure, and in such drawings like characters of reference denote corresponding parts throughout all the views, in which Fig. 1 is a perspective view of the complete device in operative position; a
Fig. 2 is a longitudinal sectional elevational view thereof;
Fig. 3 is a detail sectional plan view.
Referring now to the drawings in det-ail, 5' represents the arm of a chair supported from uprights 6 and carrying upon its un der side a movable ash tray, as shown. This tray comprises a concaved body portion 7, preferably formed of sheet metal, and provided with an extension 8 at one end pivotally connected and supported by a bolt or stud 10. The device is held in place by means of a removable wing nut 11, although other forms of attaching means may be used, if desired, for prevent-ing unauthorized removal. l
1917. Serial No. 164,993.
Adjacent the stud 10 is a pin 12 adapted to travel in a slot or cut away portion 13 at the end of the extension 8, thereby to limit the rotative movement of the ash tray about the bolt 10. The slot 13 which may be varied in length as desired, will, as herein illustrated, permit the ash tray to swing inwardly to a position underneath and parallel with the arm 5 or swing in the opposite direction to a position directly at right angles thereto.
The ashtray is preferably composed of sheet metal stamped into the desired shape, although it is, of course, to be understood that other materials may be used, if desired. The body portion 7 is provided with down- WardlyA directed side wings 14 `forming a funnel or guide, and having a central depressed opening 15' adapted to guide the end of a cigar with its ashes into the interior of the body member 7. An integral cigar rest 16 is also provided at one or more `points about the rim.
In order to empty the ash tray, the body portion 7 has a central opening on its under side into which a stopper member or cork 17 is adapted to be inserted. Surrounding this cork is an upwardly projecting fiange 18 forming a cup and centrally mounted therewithin is a compression spiral or helical funnel-shaped spring 20. This spring, which is immediately below the opening 15, is adapted to be engaged by the burning end of the cigar and on depression, remove the ashes from the end thereof by a relative grinding motion. The spring, of course, is of very light wire and will easily remove the ashes without injury to the wrapper of the cigar, and swing to accommodate itself to an uneven burning end.
It is believed that the method of use and operation of a device of this character is obl to the under side of any chair arm, table or other article of furniture, as desired, and swung out to the position shown in Fig. 1, when in use. A removal of the stopper 17 will allow the cleaning of the ash tray Without removal of the complete device from the chair arm, although at any time when so desired, or found necessary, the entire device may be removed and Washed. It is therefore believed that the vpresent invention which is of simple and practical construction and inexpensive to manufacture, is
adapted to accomplish,'among others, all of the objects and advantages herein set forth. I realize that considerable variation is possible in the details of construction and arrangement of parts Without departing from the spirit of my invention, and I therefore do not intend to limit myself to the specific l0 form shown and described.
I claim:
