CIGAR-TIP CUTTER Ann cIe'AE Box.
Application filed Eebruary 19, 1924. Serial No. 693,821.
The present invention relates to a con taiuer for cigars and more particularly to means combined therewith for removing the tips of cigars and holding the tips to prevent the same from dropping upon and littering the floor.
A further purpose of the invention is to combine with a container adapted to receive cigars a cutter for removing the tips and a tray to receive the cuttings, said tray being normally heldin withdrawn position by the cutter and the latter being held pressed inwardly by the cover of the container when closed and fastened.
A further purpose of the invention is to combine with the cutter and tray means normally tending to project the same into operative position so that when the cover of the box or container is released and moved into open position, the cutter and tray automatically assume an operative position, whereby pressure upon the cutter operates the same to remove the tip of a cigar placed in position and the tray receives the tip when out from the cigar.
Other objects and advantages will be apparent and suggest themselves as the nature of the invention is understood.
WVhile the drawings illustrate an embodiment of the invention it is to be understood that in adapting the same to meet different conditions and requirements, various changes in the form, proportion and minor details of construction may be resorted to without departing from the spirit of the invention.
Referrin to the accompanying drawing forming a part of the application:
Figure 1 is a front view of a cigar box provided with a tray and cutter embodying the invention, said box being closed and the tray and cutter held in withdrawn position,
Figure 2 is a detail perspective view of a portion of the box, the cutter and tray be ing projected into operative position,
Figure 3 is an enlarged sectional view on the line 33 of Figure 1,
Figure 4 is a detail section at a right angle to Figure 3, and Figure 5 is a detail sectional view on the line 55 of Figure 1.
Corresponding and like parts are referred to in the following description and designated in the several views of the drawings by like reference characters.
The numeral 1 designates a box or other form of container adapted to receive cigars, the same being closed by means of a lid 2 which is held in closed position by means which extends across the lower portion of the opening 4 and forms a close joint with the front 5 in line with the lower edge of theopening 8. The chute 9 thus formed re ceives the cuttings and directs them to the opening at and theopening 8.
A cutter 10 is slidable vertically in the casing and is disposed between the front 5 thereof and the wall of the box 1 to which the casing is attached. This cutter consists of a blade having a V-shaped notch in its lower end, the edges bordering upon the notch being sharpened and operating to sever the tip from av cigar by a' sheer act-ion, theinclination of one cutting edge opera-ting in opposition to the inclination of the opposite cutting'edge to prevent lateral pressure upon both the tip of the cigar and the cutter. A spring 11 normally urges the cutter 1O upwardlyand m'ay be of any formation and usually consists" of a" piece of elastic. The cutti 'i'g elements separated by the V-shaped' notch are extended, as inticated at 12, to form locking elements which are adapted to engage a tray 13 and secure the same when pressed inwardly.
The tray 13 is slidable in an opening 14 formed by cutting away a portion of the box 1, said opening being closed by means of a p1ate'15 attached to the bottom of the box in any preferred way. Outwardly dis posed flanges 16 along the upper edges of the sides of the tray 13 overlap portions of the bottom of the box bordering upon the opening 14 and serve to support the tray. A stop 17 depending from the plate 15 limits the outthe cutter 1O automatically moves upwardly and the tray 13 outwardly, and when it is required to remove the tip of a cigar, the latter is placed in position with the tip passing through the opening 7, said tip being removed by pressing the cutter 10 inwardly, the cutting passing through the openir- 's 4e and 8 and dropping into the tray 1': the latter retaining such cuttings until it hecomes convenient to empty the same.
What is claimed is:
1. A container for cigars, a cigar cutter a pp-lied to an enclosing wall of the container. and a tray slidably mounted upon thehottorn of the container to close thereunder and adapted toreceive the cuttings as the tips are severed from the cigars, said cutter having means operating to hold the tray in closed position.
2. A container for cigars, a cigar cutter applied to an enclosing wall of the container, and tray slidably mounted upon the bottom of the container to close thereunder and adapted to receive the cuttings as the tips are severed from the cigars, said cutter having means operating to hold the tray in closed position, and the cutter in turn being held pressed inwardly by the lid of tlie container.
3. A container for cigars having an opening in its enclosing wall, a casing fitted to the container in line with the opening in the side thereof and provided-in its front wall with an upper and a lower opening, a chute extending across the opening in the side of the container and forming a close joint with the bottom portion of the lower opening to deflect cuttings therethrough, and a cutter mounted in the casing and coacting with the upper opening in the front thereof adapted to receive the tip of a cigar.
4:. A container for cigars having an opening in an enclosing side thereof, a casing applied to the side of the container in line with said opening and comprising a front and a back wall, the front wall having an upper anda lower opening, a chute projecting from the back Wall and adapted to direct cuttings through the lower opening in the front of the casing, and a cutter operating in the easing and coacting with the upper opening in the front thereof to sever the tips of cigars.
5. A container for cigars having an opening in an enclosing side thereof a casing applied to the side of the container in line with said opening and comprising a front and a back wall, the front wall having an upper and a lower opening, a chute projecting from the back wall and adapted to direct cuttings through the lower opening in the front of the casing, and a cutter operating in the easing and coacting with the upper opening in the front thereof to sever the tips of cigars, said cutter including a locking element, and a tray slidahly mounted on the bottom of the container and adapted to he held in closed position by the locking element of the cutter.
6. A container for cigars having an opening in an enclosing side thereof, a casing fitted to the container and in line with said opening, said casing having an upper and lower opening in its front wall, the rear wall of said casing pressed forwardly and engaging the front wall at the lower margin of the lower opening to form a chute to direct material through said opening, a cutter slidably mounted in said casing and coacting with the upper opening in the front thereof to sever the tips of cigars, resilient means to normally raise the cutter, and said cutter adapted to be engaged by the lid of the container to depress it.
In testimony whereof we atfix our signatures.
