IGNITING TIP FOR CIGARS AND CIGARETTES Filed March 30, 1927 INVENTOR c/ze vvEf/Qnchondo,
ATTORNEY Pate'nte'd July 2, 1929.
UNITED ,STATES JUAN E. ANCHONDO, OF TUCSON, ARIZONA.
IGNITIN G TIP FORCIGARS AN D CIGARETTES.
Application. filed March so, 1927. Serial a... 179,552.
My invention aims to provide an improved match substance adapted to be applied to cigarettes, cigars and the like and a scratching surface therefor.
5 Various match substances heretofore proposed for use on self-ignited cigarettes and cigars have included ingredients such as white or red phosphorous, which are 1njur1- ous to the smoker. White phosphorous, upon oxidation, emits a poisonous fume which, in a short time, causes necrosis of the bones, particularly of the teeth and aws of the smoker.
Red phosphorus is non-poisonous but it changes to white phosphorus at a temperature of 536 F., or when it is subjected to the heat of ignition and, hence, it is objectionable also because of its toxic effect. Also, many of the old match substances are diflicult to scratch, and burst into a flame emittin toxic fumes.
ne of the objects of my invention is to provide an easily ignitable match composition that will not burst into a flame when it is ignited and that will not give off toxic fumes which are dangerous for a smoker to inhale.
Other objects ofmy invention appear in the specification when considered in connection with the illustrative example thereof shown in the accompanying drawing, wherem Fig. 1 is a side view of a cigarettehavin my improved match composition applied to one en Fi 2 is a view corresponding to Fig. 1
but showing the match end in section; and
Fig. 3 is a perspective view on a reduced scale of a cigarette package having a scratching surface adapted to ignite the match substance.
Referring particularly to the drawing, I have shown a cigarette 10 having a match tip 11 composed of my improved self-igniting substance and being applied thereto while it is in a plastic state.
My improved composition comprises a m1x ture of asuitable tinder, an ignition producin substance, 8. filler and an adhesive. I use pu verized charcoal or fine sawdust as the tinder; chlorate of potassium or sodium as the igniting substance; powdered clay or infusorial earth as the filler; and any suitable glue or vegetable gum as the adhesive or binding agent.
' lighting of One satisfactory formula for my substance includes charcoal, chlorate of potassium, powered clay and a mucilage of vegetable gum mixed in the following proportions:
' to prevent flaring up of the flame after ignition and to cause slow burning. In other words, it retards flaming combustion. The glue or vegetable gum, is used as a binder to combme the component parts together and to the ends of cigarettes or cigars.
y improved composition does not include any substance which is injurious to the smoker even if the fumes are inhaled. Moreover, the
presence of powdered charcoal in the substance tends to prevent the formation of any dangerous monoxide fumes because the carg bon absorbs the oxygen. Further, my substance, when it is ignited, does not flare up and give off objectionable fumes or smoke and, due to its .slow burning characteristic reduced by the presence of the powdered charcoal and clay, it burns sufficiently long to sure that the cigarette 0r cigar will be lighted properly. I have found that my substance can be made at'a very low .cost and only a' small amount needs to be used.
Referring to Fig. 3 I have shown a cigarette carton 12 having my improved scratching surface 13 for the convenience of cigarette smok ers. I have found that a thin paste composed of phosphorous, preferably red phosphorous, peroxide of manganese and mucilage applied to the surface and then sprayed with a solution of chlorate of sodium or potassium, forms an excellent scratching surface for my match tips, insuring ignition without vigorous scratching.
My matchtips, when rubbed slightly on the scratching surface will ignite readily without combination with the other powbreaking off and will burn through to the tobacco and ignite it without the necessity of drawing on the cigarette.
Obviously the present invention is not restricted to the particular embodiment thereof herein shown and described. Moreover, it is not indispensable that all the features of the invention be used conjointly since they may be employed advantageously in various combinations and subcombinations.
What I claim is 1. An igniting tip for cigarettes and the like composed of chlorate of alkali metal combined with a tinder and a non-combustible filler adapted to burn by forming a live coal without flaring into a flame.
2. A tip for cigarettes and the like composed of a tinder, potassium chlorate, an earthy filler, and an adhesive substance.
3. A tip for cigarettes and the like composed of powdered charcoal, chlorate of an alkali metal, clay and an adhesive substance.
4. An igniting tip for cigarettes and the like composed of powdered charcoal, an alkali metal chlorate. clay. and an adhesive substance all combined in approximately the following proport1ons:-
Powdered charcoal 6 parts Potassium or sodium chlorate 15 parts Llay 3 parts Adhesive material 1 part 5. An igniting tip for cigarettes and the like composed of powdered charcoal, chlorate of potassium, powdered clay, and an adhesive substance.
6. In combination with a tip for self-ignit- JUAN E. ANCHONDO.
