3 Claims.
My invention relates to cigar and cigarette extinguishers, and the primary objects of the invention are to provide an extinguisher for lighted cigars and cigarettes comprising an air-tight and 5 fire-proof casing wherein they are placed and extinguished for lack of oxygen, and whereby destructive fires are prevented. Further objects reside in the novel details and arrangements of construction as hereinafter set forth.
1 In the drawing:
Figure 1 is a view in perspective of the closed extinguisher; Fig. 2 is a view in transverse vertical section taken on a broken line 2-2 of Fig. i; Fig. 3 is a view in longitudinal vertical section 15 taken on a broken line 3-3 of Fig. 1; Fig. 4 is a detail view in perspective showing the asbestos tray or lining which fits into the case: Fig. 5 is an enlarged detail view in vertical section showing the hinge and spring arrangement for retaining so the lid in a normally open position; Fig.6 is a corresponding view showing the latch arrangement for releasing the lid; and Fig. 7 is a view in perspective showing a slightly modified form wherein a space is provided above and below the 25 retaining compartment for insulating the outside of the case.
Referring in detail to the drawing, the case comprises a lid 5 that is connected to a containing compartment 6 by offset hinges l. The con-= so taining compartment has a corrugated bottom 8 with a boss 9 at each of its four corners and projecting below the corrugated bottom for preventing its contact with a table or other object upon which the device may be placed.
85 A tray it, preferably made of asbestos or other heat resisting material, fits snugly into the containing compartment s with its bottom seated upon the corrugated bottom 8 thus forming air spaces 9 i therebetween for the purpose of pro- 40 viding additional heat resisting means for the bottom of the device. The tray i6 may be cemented to the walls of the containing compartment, and, to provide additional securing for the tray, a groove i5 may be formed around the up- 45 per edge portion of the containing compartment and an. endless rectangular spring member i3 may be used for forcing and retaining a portion of the tray into the groove as most clearly shown in Fig. 5 of the drawing.
50 The lid 5 is also provided with a fire-proof lining, as shown at it, and a groove i2 extends all around its outer edge portion and receives the upper edge of the containing compartment 6 when the lid is closed so as to form an air-tight connection. In the formation of this groove the lid is counter-sunk or depressed so as to form an exterior tray it which may be used for cigar and cigarette ashes if desired, although it will be understood that the use of the interior compartment for extinguishing lighted cigars and cigarettes is 5 the more important feature of the invention.
The hinge 7 consists of lugs pressed out of both the lid 5 and compartment 6 and respectively fitted together with a pin passing through them and supporting springs H which normally retain 1 the lid in the raised or open position. The front of the case has a spring latch l8 connected to the insideof the containing compartment 6 and arranged to engage a depression IS on the inside of the lid and thus retain the lid in the closed position. A push knob Mengages the latch and releases same when pressed inwardly thus allowing the lid to fiy open by action of the springs l1.
My device is especially intended for use in wooded countries as a means for preventing forest fires, although it may be used in the home as well. Instead of attempting to extinguish a lighted cigar or cigarette by rubbing it against some object and thereby running the risk of starting a fire, or by throwing same upon the ground, it is placed within the fire-proof and air-tight case, which may then be put into the pocket. The lighted cigar or cigarette will, of course, be rapidly extinguished for want of air. The modified form shown in Fig. 7 differs from the described form only in the provision of air spaces between the outer casing and the inner fire-proof casing.
Having thus described my invention, what I claim and desire to secure by letters Patent of the United States is:
1. In a cigar and cigarette extinguishing device, a container open at its top and having a corrugated bottom, supporting bosses depending from the bottom and being of greater depth than the corrugations of the bottom whereby the container will be supported in an elevated position, a lid for said container, fitting tightly about walls of the container when closed to form an air tight connection therewith, and a lining of heat resisting material for the container resting upon upper portions of the corrugations of the bottom of the container and bridging spaces between the corrugations.
2. In a cigar and cigarette extinguisher, a container, a lid hinged to said container and forming an air tight connection therewith when closed, heat resisting linings for the container and lid, portions of the linings being cut away to expose portions of walls of the container and lid,
the exposed portion of the container walls being formed with upper and lower openings and the exposed portion of the wall of the lid being formed with a socket opposite the upper opening of the container, a spring strip extending vertically against the exposed portion of the container wall and secured at its lower end, and a latch for releasably retaining the lid closed disposed between the spring strip and container wall and having a tooth at its upper end extending outwardly through the upper opening'for engaging in the socket of the lid to hold the lid closed, said latch also having a button extending from its lower end through the lower opening of the container wall whereby the latch may be moved inwardly into position for releasing the lid.
8. A cigar and cigarette extinguisher comprising a container having a bottom and walls, an asbestos lining for said container having walls bearing against walls of the container with their upper end portions bent outwardly to overlie upper edges of walls of the container, a lid for said container, an asbestos lining for said lid, marginal portions of the lid and its lining being bent to iorma channel open at its bottom and arranged to receive the upper portions or the walls of the container whereby the asbestos linings for the container and lid will contact and form an air tight joint when the lid is in place.
