3 Claims.
This invention relates to ash trays, and has for its object to provide an improved and simplified form of 'ash tray, designed especially to prevent smouldering 'cigars and cigarettes from damaging furniture or other repositories upon which the tray may be placed.
In ash trays of'the prior art, it has been bowl or other hollow receptacle having one or more cigar or cigarette supports disposed around it. For the most part, these supports project from the bowl and are of limited extent. Consequently, it frequently happens that a burning cigar or cigarettel will fall from its support onto a table or a table cover, burning or scorching the same, and at times causing serious damage. by fire subsequent to such burning.
Accordingly, it is the purpose of my invention to provide a simple ash tray structure which makes it impossible for a smouldering'cigaror cigarette to escape froml the confines of the bowl or receptacle for the ashes and butts. It is also the object of the invention to provide a structure in which the cigar or cigarette support may be separated readily from the bowl so as to facilitate emptying of the bowl. I
Other objects of the invention will appear from the following description when read in connection with the accompanying drawing, in whichz- Fig. 1 isa perspective view ,of one form of ash tray embodying my invention; and
Fig. 2 is a central vertical section of the same tray.
In the drawing, the reference character 3 designates a bowl of metal or the like, having a symmetrically curved outer contour and a substantiallyfiat bottom. Centrally of the bottom there is punched upwardly to receive an upstanding stud 5 which is secured to the boss 4, as by riveting, at 6.
Mounted within and supported by the stud 5 is a tray .7, here shown asof circular contour, containing-a plurality of perforatins 8. tray is secured to a postv 9 which extends upwardly to form a ange 13, an enlargement 10 and a knob 11 so shaped as appearance to the eye, and at the same time serve as a handle for lifting the tray when it is desired to separate it from the bowl 3.
The tray 'I is iixedly secured to the post 9 and is held in place between guiding sleeve 12 and ange 13, in any suitable manner, as by soldering or the like. The sleeve 12 surrounds the post 9 and frictionaily engages the stud 5 to hold the tray in the position shown when the parts are assembled. Preferably. the upper end of the stud 5 is rounded, as shown, to
facilitate re-engagement between the sleeve 12 support upon which the tray a boss 4, perforated to give a pleasing.
and the stud when the parts are to be assembled after separation.
The dimensions of the bowl 3 and the tray 'l are so chosen that a cigar or cigarette cannot be placed on the tray 'I so as to project from the bowl and still maintain a position of stable equilibrium. Consequently, when a cigarette4 is placed on the tray '1 and left to burn away, as shown in Fig. 1, thev ashes fall into the bowl 3, and if the cigarette 13 continues to burn, the ashes may fall through the perforations 8.
If the cigarette remains on the tray vuntil it is entirely burned away, through the perforations in the tray, and there is no possibility of the burning material escaping from the bowl onto the furniture or othe may rest.
When there is a substantial accumulation of ashes and butts in the bowl 3, the tray '7 may be lifted by the handle 10 and the parts separated so that the tray in no way interferes with the dumping of the bowl. After the ashes are removed, the parts may be reassembled by merely dropping the sleeve 12 over the stud 5 and pushing it downwardly to the position shown in Fig. 2.
The parts may be made entirely of metal and constructed so as to be of ornamental appearance. It will also be possible to construct a portion of the tray from ceramic or other non-inflammable material, provided the basic features arev preserved.
What is claimed is:
1. An ash tray comprising a one-piece metal bowl; a stud centrally disposed within and secured to the bottom of said bowl; a perforated tray supported on said stud in separable relation thereto; and an upstanding post secured to said tray and serving as a handle therefor to remove said tray from said stud and bowl.
2. An ash tray comprising a one-piece hollow receptacle; a supporting stud disposed centrally within said receptacle; a perforated article-supporting tray; a hollow sleeve secured to said tray and adapted to embrace said stud; and an upwardly' projecting post secured to said tray and said sleeve and serving as a handle for the'complete removal of said tray from said receptacle.-
from said stud.
