March 1942- J. s. AUBUCHON CIGARETTE EXTINGUISHING ASH TRAY Filed Oct. 9, 1939 Inventor .JOHN S. AuBucHoN,
Patented Mar. 3, 1942 UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE 2,275,099 CIARETTE EXTINGUISHING ASH TRAY John S. Aubuchon, Farmington, M0.
Application October 9, 1939, Serial No. 298,651
I Claim.
My invention relates to improvements in cigarette extinguishing means as incorporated in ash trays, and the primary object of the invention is to provide means whereby the lighted end of a cigarette may be completely quenched and extinguished without the usual necessity for snuffing, pressing with the fingers, and the like, the said means lending itself to incorporation in a simple and easily manufactured ash tray which can be constructed successfully of a variety of attractive materials at low cost.
Other important objects and advantages of my invention will be apparent from a reading of the following description taken in connection with the drawing, wherein for purposes of illustration I have shown a preferred embodiment of my invention.
In the drawing Figure 1 is atop plan view of the embodiment.
Figure 2 is a side or edge elevational view thereof showing internal contours in dotted lines.
Figure 3 is a transverse vertical sectional View taken through Figure 1 approximately on the line 3-3 and looking. upwardly in the direction of the arrows.
Referring in detail to the drawing, the numeral 5 generally designates the embodiment as a whole which may be constructed of a variety of suitable metal and non-metallic materials in either opaque or translucent or transparent forms, the said ash tray being preferably although not necessarily constructed in a circular form characterized by a substantially cylindrical body portion 6 having on its lower end a peripheral foot I defined by a shallow upset circular portion 8 in the bottom. On the upper end of the peripheral edge of the cylindrical body 6 is a lip or flange 9 of comparatively small cross section Whose inner face It) extends radially outwardly and upwardly with respect to the axis of the body 6 at an approximate angle of forty-five degrees. The lower end of the face IU of the lip 9 merges comformably with a similarly angulated annular wall II which extends downwardly as far as a beveled annular wall 12 which extends radially inwardly therefrom at an obtuse angle with respect to the axis of the body 6. At the radially inward edge of the beveled annulus I2 rises the wall of the inner annulus l3 the radially outward side of which leans away from the axis of the body 6 to form an annular pocket or channel around the upper part of the ash tray of such a cross section that whenever a cigarette M has the burning end l5 thereof thrust downwardly along the face I0 and into the said channel, the outer face l6 of the wall 13 will act to compress the lighted end of the cigarette into a comparatively dense mass, thereby effectively and immediately quenching and extinguishing the lighted end of a cigarette, without further action and effort on the part of the operator. The simple act of sliding the cigarette l4 downwardly along the lip 9 until the lighted end of the cigarette meets resistance in the said channel is sufficient to accomplish the extinguishing of the lighted end of a cigarette. The ash receptacle portion of the ash tray 5 is defined by the inner face l8 of the annular wall I3 and a conformably concaved bottom I! into which the surface l8 merges as indicated in Figures 2 and 3. It is to be observed that the manner of use of the invention above described eliminates all necessity for exerting sidewise or a downward pressure on the cigarette in the act of producing extinguishment of the lighted end thereof, and that there results no: scattering of fragments of the burned end or other part of the cigarette as the result of the quenching action, so that the invention provides for quick, clean, and safe extinguishment of cigarettes and disposal thereof.
Although I have shown and described herein a preferred embodiment of my invention, it is to be definitely understood that I do not desire to limit the application of my invention thereto except as may be required by the scope of the subjoined claim.
Having described the invention, what is claimed as new is:
A cigarette extinguishing ash tray comprising a block having a tapered groove with walls formed circumferentially in its top surface, said block also having a dished opening located centrally of said groove and extending deeper into said block than said groove, a flanged formed on the outer wall of said groove, said outer wall and said flange extending from said block at an upwardly and outwardly flaring angle, and an inner wall of said groove, said inner wall extending from said block at an outwardly and upwardly flaring angle, said inner wall and said outer wall being so arranged as to form said groove with an upwardly diverging taper, said tapered groove being so formed, with the inner wall substantially lower than the outer flange, as to receive only the lighted tip of the cigarette, whereby the remainder of the cigarette will be free of the groove.
JOHN S. AUBUCHON.
