Description
Dec. 10, 1929. c. H. CORRIGAN COMBINED CIGAR AND CIGARETTE EXTINGUISHER Filed Jan. 9, 1929 Invenior (YIlb/v'g'an m Attorney Patented Dec. 10, 1929 I CHARLES HENRY CORRIGAN, OF PHOENIX, ARIZONA COMBINED CIGAR AND CIGARETTE EXTINGUISHER Application fiIedJanuary 9, 1929. sewn No. 331,183. 7
The present invention relates to improve ments in tobacco users appliances and has reference more particularly to a device for quenching or extinguishing a lighted cigar or 6 cigarette in a simple and eflicient manner.
;-- One ofthe important objects of the present invention is to provide a device of the above mentioned character that may be detachably associated either with'a match case or the closed end of a cigarette lighter, said device being ofsuch size as to occupy a very small amount of space when laced in the pocket of the user so that the evice is at all times at hand for use.
A further object is to provide a device of lid being provided for the open upper end of the well which lid can be readily and easily swung to an open position to'permit the insertion of the lighted end of a cigar or cigarette when it is desired to extinguish the 1 39 same.
A further object is to provide a device. oi the above mentioned character that is simple in construction, inexpensive, strong and durable and further well adapted to the purpose for which it is designed.
Other objects and advantages of the invention will become apparent from the following description when taken in connection with .the accompanying drawing. v
In the accompanying drawing wherein like reference characters indicate corresponding parts throughout the same:
Figure l is a top plan view of the device embodyingmy invention showing the same attached on one end of a'cigarettecase.
Figure 2 is a sectional view taken approximately on the line 22 of Figure 1. 7 Figure 3 is a longitudinal sectional view taken on the line 33 of Figure 1, and
Figure 4 is a tragmentary detail perspective view of the inner end of the water container showing the attaching means associated therewith. 1 V
In the drawing wherein for the purpose of illustration is shown the preferred embodiment of my invention, the numeral 1 designates a substantially rectangular shaped water container, the outer end of which terminates in the conical portion 2, and a filling neck 3 is formed at the smaller endof the conical portion 2. A cap 4 is detachably secured on the filling neck 3 for normally closing the same.
A split attaching flange 5 extends from the closed inner end of the container ,1, and this split flange is adaptedto encircle one end of a match case or the closed end of a cigarette lighter, as suggested in Figure 1. A clamping band such as is shown at 6 extends around the split flange for clamping the same on the end of the match case or cigar lighter to prevent the accidental disengagement of the container from the article on which it is secured.
The top of the container 1 is formed with an opening through which extends the conical well 7, the lower end thereof being open and terminating at the intermediate portion of the container. The upper edge of the well isfianged for disposition on the top of the container around the opening formed therein,
and any appropriate means may be provided for fixedly securing the well position in the water container.
A sponge. 8 is placed in the lower end ofthe [Well and the water is normally prevented from contact with the sponge through the medium of the cup-shaped member 9 that encircles the lower end of the well and a rubber disc 10 is arranged in the bottom of the cup shaped member to engage with the lower edge of the well 7.
An expansible coil spring 11 is arranged with the water container 1 for disposition between the bottom of the container and the cup shaped member 9 for normally urging .the same upwardly to maintain the rubber lighted end of the cigar or cigarette, and thispressure will result in the cup-shaped member 9 being forced downwardly against the tension of the coil spring 11 so that the rubber disc 10' is moved away from the lower edge of the well 7 and water is permitted to saturate the sponge and the dampened sponge will extinguish or quench the lighted end of the cigar or cigarette in a positive and efficient manner. As soon as thecigarette or cigar'is removed from the well the spring 11 automatically returns the cup shaped member ,9 and the rubber disc 10 arranged in the bottom thereof into its normal position, closing the open lower end of the well and preventing water from coming in contact with the sponge. a v
It will thus be seen from the foregoing description that I have provided a device of the above mentioned character that can be gcarned aroundon the person and will not oc- Vcupy 7 any considerable amount of space.
I Furthermore, a device of this character will e Iclaim as new .anddesire tosecure by at all times be positive and eflicient in carrying out the purposes for which it is designed, and due to its simplicity, the same can be constructed and sold at a very low cost.
Ifdesired, theextinguisher can also be used as an adjunct on ash trays and stands' WVhile I have shown the preferred embodiment of my invention it is to be'understood that minor changes in the size, shape and arrangement of parts may be resorted to withoutdeparting from the spiritfof the invention and the scopeof the appended claims. Having thus described the invention, vphat ters Patent is a 1. In a cigar or cigarette extinguisher of the class described, a water receptacle pro vided with a filling opening, a closure there- -'for, the top of the receptacle being formed I withan opening, an open ended well extending downwardly through the opening, the lower end thereof being spaced from the bottom of the water receptacle, an absorbent her, said spring pressed closure being moved "to an operative position to permit the absorbent member to'become saturatedwhen a downward pressure is exerted on the ab-' sorbent member by the cigar or cigarette to be extinguished, anda lid providing a closure for the upper open end of the well.
2. In a cigar or cigarette extinguisher of the class described, a waterreceptacle provided with a filling opening, a closure therefor, the top of the receptacle being formed with an opening, an open ended well'extending downwardly through the opening, the lower end thereof being spaced from the bottom of the water receptacle, an absorbent member being arranged in the well, a spring pressed closure for the open lower end of the well to normally prevent water in the con tainer from reaching. the absorbent member,
said spring pressed closure being moved to an operative position to permit the absorbent member to become saturated when a downward pressure is exerted on the absorbent member by the cigar or cigarette to be extinguished, a lid providing aclosure-for the upper open endof the well, said spring pressed closure including a'cup shaped memmember being arranged in the well, a spring pressed closure for the open lower end of the well to normally prevent water in the container from reaching the absorbent member, said spring pressed closure being moved to an operative position to permit the absorbent member to become saturated when a'downward pressure is exerted on the absorbent 7' member by the cigar or cigaretteto be extinguished, a lid providing a closure for the upper open end of the well, means] at one end of the container for attaching "the same toa support. v
.4. In a cigar or cigarette extinguisher'of the class described, a water'receptacle provided with a filling opening, a closure therefor, the top of the receptacle being formed with an opening, the lower-end thereof being spaced from the bottom of the water receptacle, an absorbent 'member being arranged in the well, a spring pressed closure for the open lower end of the well to normally prevent water inthe container from reaching the absorbent member, said spring pressed closurebeing moved to an operative position to permit the absorbent member to become saturated whena downward pressure is exerted on the absorbent member byfthe cigar or cigarette to be extinguished,alid providing a closure for the upper open end of the Well, means at one end of the container for attaching the same to a support, said means comprising a split flange for encircling the support and a clamping band extending around the flange.
In testimony whereof I afiix my signature.
