ASH TRAY Filed July 10, 1940 George A.Bla0k WR. LQIZCQSZE PeZ D Z: INVENTORS ATTO R N EYS Patented Oct. 21, 1941 ASH TRAY George A. Black, William E. Lancaster, and Pete Dah-l, Pine Grove, Calif.
Application July 10, 1940, Serial No. 344,818
1 Claim.
This invention relates to ash trays and has for an object to provide an ash tray which is operated simply by pressing downwardly on the top to cut off the burning end of a cigarette or receive its ashes.
A further object of the device is to provide an ash tray having its bowl filled with water or fireproof liquid to extinguish a cigarette and absorb smoke odor.
Another object of the device is to provide an ash tray having a valve to close the top of the bowl of the ash tray and make it smokeand airtight after receiving cuttings, butts, matches and ashes.
A further object is to provide apparatus of this character which will be formed of a few strong, simple and durable parts, which will be inexpensive to manufacture, and which will not easily et out of order.
With the above and other objects in view the invention consists of certain novel details of construction and combinations of parts hereinafter fully described and claimed, it being understood that various modifications may be resorted to within the scope of the appended claim without departing from the spirit or sacrificing any of the advantages of the invention.
In the accompanying drawing forming a part of this specification:
Figure 1 is a cross sectional view of the device in normal or closed position.
Figure 2 is a top plan view of the device.
Figure 3 is a cross sectional view taken on the line 3-3 of Figure 1, looking in the direction of the arrows.
Figure 4 is a cross sectional view of the device in depressed or open position.
Referring now to the drawing in which like characters of reference designate similar parts in the various views, HI designates a bowl adapted to contain water or other non-inflammable liquid i l. A flange rim l2, threaded on its inner periphery, threadedly engages the lower end of a cylindrical neck la. The neck is provided with a pair of openings I4 on opposite sides thereof.
A hollow cylindrical cutter l5, open at its upper side, is slidably mounted in the neck I3 and is provided with openings I6 which, when it is in raised position, register with the openings I4 in the neck I3. The cutter I is normally supported in raised position by coil springs l! which are located between a cross bar 23 on the upper side of the cutter l5 and perforated lugs I8 formed on the inner side of the neck l3. Rods 19 are fixed to the cross bar 23 of the cutter and pass through the springs I1 and perforations in the lugs H3.
The lower edge of the neck l3 forms a seat 26 against which a conical valve 2| bears when the cutter I5 is in raised position. The apex of valve 2| is secured to the center portion of the cross bar 23 by a rod 22.
In use the smoker may cut the end off his cigarette by placing the lighted end into the openings [4 and H5 in the sides of the cylindrical neck l3 and the slidably mounted hollow cylindrical cutter I5, pressing downwardly on the cross bar 23 on the cutter to the position shown in Figure 4. In this position of the parts, cuttings, ashes, matches, and butts may be placed in the bowl I0. When pressure is released on the cross bar 23, the springs I! force the cutter I5 back into the normal position as shown in Figure 1. In this position smoke and odors are sealed in the container. H
From the above description it is thought that the construction and operation of the invention will be fully understood without further explanation.
What is claimed is:
An ash tray comprising, a bowl, a cylindrical neck threadedly engaged with the bowl, a cutter slidably received in the neck, a cross bar on the top of the cutter, a stem connected to the cross bar and disposed axially in the cutter, a valve carried by the stern normally closing the bottom of the neck, said neck having a lateral opening and said cutter having a lateral opening to receive a cigarette when the openings are alined, said neck being provided with apertured inwardly extending lugs, pins carried by the cross bar slidably projecting through the apertured lugs, and helical springs sleeved on the pins engaged between the cross bar and the lugs for normally holding the cutter in position to aline said openings.
