CIGARETTE EXTINGUISHER vFiled DeC. 17, 1931 Patented pr. 26, 1932 UNITED STATES EDWARD K. MORLOK, OF COLLINGSWOOD, NEW JERSEY CIGARETTE EXTINGUISHER Application led December 17, 1931.
My invention relates to new and useful improvements in a cigarette extinguisher and has for one of its objects to provide such a device including a tray to receive a cigarette or similar article, and a figure hingedly mounted upon the tray, and a fluid reservoir including means for expelling the fluid therefrom in small quantities and to be passed through a portion of the figure and projected into the tray upon tilting of said figure.
illustrate the relative positions of the several elements.
Fig. 2 is a section on the line 2 2 of Fig. 1.
In carrying out my invention as herein embodied, 5 represents a suitable support preferably designed to provide an ash tray G and a ground elevation 7 to one side of the ash tray proper. The support is of hollow construction and so fashioned as to provide two compartments 8 and 9, the latter containing the source of fluid supply 10 preferably in the forni of a collapsible rubber ball from which leads a flexible tube or conduit 11, said tube being connected with the ball at or near V' its lowest point when considered with the ball in place in the compartment 9.
The collapsible rubber ball 10 is of such size as to snugly fit in the compartment 9 and n frictionally engage the walls of the support to prevent accidental displacement of the ball through the lower open end of the compartment 9, and the relative sizes of the compartment 9 and ball 10 are such that the lower part of the ball will engage any surface on which the support is resting. At the Serial No. 581,622.
top of the compartment 9 there is a hole 12 in the support in which is loosely and slidably mounted a plunger 13 for Contact with the rubber ball or bulb 10 and said plunger is provided with a head 14 to limit the inward or downward movement of said plunger and the depression of said plunger will compress the rubber ball or bulb to expel a small quantity of any fluid in the ball and cause said fluid to pass through the tube 11.
it might be well to state at this time that the tube is connected to the ball so that the inner end of said tube terminates at or Very close to the inner surface of the ball and does not project for any considerable distance into said ball so that when the ball is properly positioned practically the entire contents may be expelled from time to time in small quantities. In other words, a single depression of the plunger will not empty the ball but the latter can be practically emptied by operating said plunger' a number of times.
On the support and more particularly on the ground elevation is mounted a figure 15 and the lower ends of two of the legs 16 and 17, representing a rear and front leg respectively, are located adjacent two holes 1S and 19 and are hingedly connected to the support by suitable means to be described.
For hingedly connecting the front leg 17 I preferably use a screw 20 which passes through the hole 19 and is threaded into said front leg 17, and said screw has a rubber or other suitable compressible washer or element 21 between the head of the screw and the underface of the top wall of the ground elevation. The hole 19 being larger than the screw 20, said screw can swing from side to side, said movements being possible due to the compressibility of the element 21 when sufficient force is used, but under ordinary conditions said element 21 will normally maintain the screw in the approximate position illustrated in Fig. 1. p
A metal tube or conduit 22 is cast or otherwise mounted in the figure with its outlet end protruding through a hole in a wall of the figure and said tube is so fashioned as to produce a return bend so that a section of the tube passes through the rear leg 16 with the TI (ver of a metal Washer forced` onto't-he tube or said tube may be slightly crimped or swaggedto secure the holdin-g -'means -2l^inpla`ce; Thus the rear legV r6 is "hinged to' the' support.A
The Votlre'rrear leg-"25l of 'the t figure normally restson the upper'surfaee of the ground elevation so'tlrat 'the' ligure will remain in a normalA uprightpositionl and therefore said rearleg '25'functionsas al stop to limit the movement of the ligure vin one direction.
Theother front leg 25 of-th'efiigure engages the upper outer en'd o-rhead y14 of the plunger 13 and is therefore spaced some distance from the upper surface'of the ground elevation leaving the gure free to be tilted toward said front leg 26 until theplunger 13 has been depressed a suflicient Y distance to bring the head l1li-into Contact withv the uppersurface of the groundl elevation.
By reference tol Fie". 2,' it will be noted lthat the figure is hinged between the point of contact of therear leg 25 with the support' and the location of the plunger 13 so that lthe tilt-v ing of theI figure will readily depress said plunger 13, and because of the inherent resiliency of tlie'ballor bulb 10, the plunger will be returned-to itsfnormal raisedl position aftereach depression thereof and thisaction ofthe plunger will return the iiguretoits normal* upright position until the rear? leg 25 engages the'surface of the-support.
The' flef-ible tube or conduit 11 w-hiclif has one enoly fastenedV to the bulb or ball 10 has its outlet endv removably connected tothe inlet end of the metal tube'22 within the compart ment 85 it being understood that the interior diameter of the rubber or flexible tube 11fis slightly smaller than the exterior diameter of the metal tube 22, so that when the former is slipped overthe latter it will not; become accidentally disconnected therefrom although it can be readily detached by a person desiring' to frell the ball with fluidl andaccess theretoisreadily had through the open bottom end of the compartment 8.
In operation, the ball 10 is filled with fluid and said ball and its tube 11 assembled as shown in Fig. 1. When it is desired to eX- tinguish a cigarette placed in the tray 6, it -isjonl'y lnecessary to tilt the'figure so that the front le'g'26 will depress" the plunger 13 which in tu'rn will partially collapse the ballv 10,
causing a small quantity of the fluid in said ball to be expelled therefrom and forced through the conduit formed by the tubes 11 and 22 when the Huid will issue from the outlet end of the tube 22 and the issuing stream of fluid will be directed into the ash tray since the figure is so located on the groundelevation that the tiltingfof said figure will point the outlet end of the tube 22 toward the tray- Ofl course'ldo 'no't'wishto be limited to the eXact--detai-ls-of construction herein shown, as these may be varied within the limits of tli-e'appended cla-imswithout departing from the spirit of my invention.
