CIGARETTE HOLDER ATTACHMENT FOR ASH REOEPTAQLES Filed Jan. 3, 1938 F2-1 d/Ya n Patented Sept. 5, 1939 UNITED STATES CIGARETTE HOLDER. ATTACHMENT FOR ASH RECEPTACLES Hartwell A. Du Prey, Wayzata, Minn.
Application January 3, 1938, Serial No. 182,985
1 Claim.
My invention has for its object to provide a cigarette holder attachment for ash receptacles.
The invention is especially well adapted and intended for use in connection with a can-like receptacle made especially for such use, or which can be applied to a similar used receptacle, such as an empty coffee can or the like.
To the above end, generally stated, the invention consists of the novel devices, combinations of devices and arrangement of parts hereinafter described and defined in the claim.
In the accompanying drawing, which illustrates the invention, like characters indicate like parts throughout the several views.
Referring to the drawing:
Fig. 1 is a perspective View of the invention applied to a receptacle;
Fig. 2 is a view of the invention in side elevation and also fragmentarily illustrating in section, the top portion of the receptacle;
Fig. 3 is a perspective view of the invention removed from the receptacle; and
Fig. 4 is an end elevation of the invention as shown in Fig. 3.
For the purpose of showing the invention applied in working position, there is illustrated in the drawing a receptacle 5 in the form of a metallic can having on its rim an inturned annular bead 6. This receptacle 5 is for receiving and holding ashes, cigarette or cigar stubs, burned matches or other refuse. v
On the bottom of the receptacle 5 is placed a layer of sand m or other substance on which the refuse is deposited, thereby facilitating the emptying, or cleaning of the receptacle 5 and assisting in smothering any smouldering refuse which might create objectionable odors, discolor the receptacle, and possibly overheat the receptacle 5 to the point in which it might scorch the object on which it is placed.
Referring now in detail to the cigarette or cigar holder 1, the same, as shown, is in the form of a V-shaped or channel-shaped plate, the length of which holder corresponds to the internal diameter of the receptacle 5. To detachably secure the holder 1 to the receptacle 5, the same has in the ends of its side members 8, notch-like seats 9 arranged to receive the bead 6. In attaching the holder 1 to the receptacle 5, it is only necessary to slightly elongate said receptacle by pressing the sides thereof, opposite the sidemembers 8, toward each other. A like operation will also release the holder 1 from the receptacle 5, see Fig. 2. Formed in the upper edge portions of the side members 8 of the holder 1, at each end portion thereof, is a pair of transversely aligned segmental seats l0, and between the end seats II] are two pairs of transversely aligned seats H. The seats II are much larger than the seats l0 and will hold a cigar 5 or a pipe. In the bottom of the holder 1 is a plurality of ash escape openings l2 which extend upwardly into the side members 8.
Obviously, a cigarette may be laid in any one pair of aligned seats in or II, or obliquely across the holder 1 in any one of the seats of each adjacent pair of aligned seats, or it may be rested on the bead 6 between the two side members 8 with its lighted end resting on the bottom of the holder 1. The thin edges of the side members a 15 prevent an accumulation of ashes or other refuse thereon so that there is always a clean place to rest a cigarette or cigar. These thin edges of the side members 8 also afiord convenient and efficient surfaces on which ashes'may be removed from a cigarette or cigar.
One of the main objections to ash receptacles now commonly used is that they usually have a long notch-like seat or seats in which to lay a cigarette, and it is common practice, when putting out the fire in a cigarette, to press and twist the same on one of these seats, thus leaving a deposit of ashes, tobacco and burned paper, so that there is not a clean place to lay the next cigarette.
A large portion of ashes dropped or scraped into the channel-like holder 1 will be precipitated through the escape passageways l2 into the receptacle 5. Ashes accumulating on the bottom of the holder 1, between the escape passageways l2, may be easily removed therefrom and precipitated into the receptacle 5 through said passageways simply by shaking said receptacle.
The large capacity of the receptacle 5 elimi- 40 nates all danger of refuse therein spilling onto the table or other support.
The improved holder 1 may be very quickly and easily removed or applied to the receptacle 5, thus greatly facilitating the cleaning and emptying of said holder and receptacle.
The above described holder, while extremely simple and of small cost to manufacture, has, in actual usage, proven highly efiicient for the purpose had in view. Said holder has ample space for advertising indicia, and the cost of manufacture is so small that it may be given away for advertising purposes.
It will be understood that the invention described is capable of various modifications within the scope of the inventon herein disclosed and claimed.
What I claim is:
The combination with an annular open top receptacle made from sheet material and having an internal annular bead near its rim, of a removable holder in the receptacle and extending diametrically across the same at the top thereof, with the ends of its side members closely engaging the internal wall of the receptacle, said holder being folded from a single sheet of material to a form that is U-shape in cross section, said holder having in each end of its side members a notch into which said bead extends and releasably holds the holder interlocked with the receptacle, said bead holding the holder with freedom to turn relative to the receptacle about its axis, said holder also having notch like seats in the upper edge portions of its side members and an ash escape aperture in its bottom, said holder being releasable from the receptacle by springing the sides of the holder toward each other to release the notches from the bead or by inwardly springing the sides of the receptacle transversely of the holder to elongate said receptacle and release the head from the notches.
