MOUTHPIECE FOR CIG ARETTES' Filed July 19, 1930 gwuentoc Jmes 1%7165 Fatented Sept. 1, 1931 stares JAMES F. HUGHES. OF N'Exv YoRK, N. Y. I
MOUTHPIEGE FOR crennnr'rns Application filed July 19, 1920. Serial No. 469,167.
The present invention relates to mouthpieces for cigars or cigarettes and consists in the combinations and arrangements of elements hereinafter described and particularly set forth in'the accompanying claims.
The purpose of the invention is to provide a device which will keep the cigarette substantially dry and effectively prevent the nicotine and tobacco fibres from enteringvice to be conveniently applied at the time of smoking and thereafter removed and again used with other cigarettes at will.
The device shown herein is proposed as an improvement over that construction of similar article disclosed in my copending appli cation for U. S. Patent, Serial No. 439,167, filed March 26. 1930; and is also submitted as a form of the article alternative to that illustrated and described in my co-pending application executed and filed of even date herewith.
The invention is shown by way of illustration in the accompanying drawings, wherein: p
igure 1 is a perspective view, showing a cigarette with the article attached.
Figure 2, a longitudinal sectional view thereof.
Figure 3, an end elevational view of the article per se, showing modified openings.
Figure 4, a perspective view of the same.
Figure 5, a perspective view of a modified construction.
Figure 6, a side elevational view of a further modification.
Figure 7 shows still another form of the device as applied to a cigarette.
Figure 8 is a detached view of the article to as shown in Figure 7, and;
'should'be pressed into a position where the Figures 9 and'lO show a further modification.
Referring to the construction in further detail and wherein the same reference characters designate corresponding parts in the 51 difi'erentfigures, 9 represents an ordinary cigarette or cigar, the end 10 of which is adapted to be attached to the device shown herein. This end of the cigarette is in no way altered, whetherthe device be incorporated in the cigarette when made or applied as a separate attachment. ,The openings in the, device may be of large or smaller size, accordingly as the smoker desires to pufi' lightly or inhale deeplyand fully, as will be understood.
At the end 10 of the cigarette is a disc-like piece 11 of relatively thin and non-inflammable-material. Said piece is permanently fixed'to the outer end of a strand 12 whose inner end is provided with a barb 13 having for its purpose to hold the strand 12 and cap-piece 11 in position when inserted as shown. It will be understood that the strand'and its connecting cap-piece may be 7 incorporated into the cigarette during the process of manufacture or separately attached thereto by the smoker and detached when the cigarette has been consumed.
The disc-member 11 is of a thickness suitable for its purpose and has its peripheral edge slightly beveled'so that when inserted in position it will have an appreciably close fit with the cigarette wrapper. and thereby efl'ectively prevent any of the tobacco from coming in direct contact with the mouth of the'smoker. That is to say, the diameter of the disc-piece 11 is approximately the same: as the diameter of the cigarette so that the mouth-engaging end thereof will be substantially closed except for the series of apertures 14 through whichthe smoke passes. And for convenience ininserting and removing the piece there is provided a projecting fingerengaging member 15, as clearly shown in Figures 1 and 2. Said member has a roundedlike head to be easily handled and is formed in continuation of the strand member 12. When properly attached the disc-piece 11 cigarette end comes even with the outer face of the disc.
The construction shown in Figures 3 and 4 is in all respects the same as in Figures 1 and 2, excepting that in this instance the disc 16 is formed with an annular series of slots 17 instead of the rounded apertures 14. That is to say, the construction shown in Figures 3 and 4 is better adapted to those smokers who inhale deeply while the form shown in Figures 1 and 2 may be preferred by those who puff lightly.
In Figure 5 the construction is substantially the same as above, but has the end 18 of the strand 19 formed with a rounded point as distinct from being flat as in Figures 2 and 8. In Figure 6 the disc 11 has a flattened strand penetrating portion 20 which is formed with a series of notches 21. These notches are oppositely disposed and so formed that the piece may be readily inserted into the end of the cigarette and securely held therein against displacement. It will be understood, of course, that this design is shown merely as illustrating another adaptation of the article. 7
Again in Figures 7 and 8 the invention is disclosed in another form. In this instance the disc member 11 is provided with a double or looped strand piece 22 whose free end portions 23 are slightly bent outwardly. When inserted in the cigarette this article has that form shown in Figure 8 (i. e., the wire portions are together), but after insertion said pieces naturally separate, as in Figure 7, thereby holding the disc piece securely in place.
The invention also contemplates forming the perforated end piece 11 in the process of making the cigarette wrapper. That is to say, the finished cigarette with its wrapper has a paper and perforated closed end for inserting into the mouth. Also there may be useda perforated and separate disc member fitting against the tobacco end of the cigarette and there held in place by an extension of the cigarette wrapper.
In the construction shown in Figures 9 and 10 the closure piece or disc 11 is provided with engaging members 24 and 25 located at diametrically opposite points. These members are adapted to receive the cigarette wrapper as shown in Figure 9.
It is also to be understood that the inven tion is not limited to the details of construction here shown and described, but that these may be varied widely without departing from the spirit of the invention as defined by the claims.
What is claimed as new is:
1. The combination with a cigarette, of an apertured disc disposed against the end thereof, and a pin penetrating the cigarette body and holding said disc in position to prevent the tobacco fibres from entering the mouth,
said pin having a finger engaging portion projecting beyond the disc, substantially as set forth.
2. The combination with a cigarette, of an apertured disc member having the same diameter as the cigarette and closing one end thereof, a barbed pin penetrating the tobacco and holding the disc, and said pin having an outwardly projecting portion for engagement by the finger, substantially as set forth.
3. A cigarette mouth-piece comprising a disc member disposed against an end thereof, and a single flattened prong having a serrated edge penetrating the cigarette tobacco and holding the disc member in position, substantially as set forth.
4. A cigarette mouth-piece comprising a disc member disposed against an end thereof, and a prong member having serrated edges penetrating the cigarette tobacco and holding the disc member in position, substantially as set forth.
In witness whereof, I have hereunto set my hand and seal at \Vashington, District of Columbia this 16th day of July, A. D. nineteen hundred and thirty.
JAMES F. HUGHES.
