Description
0. OARRINGTON. Cigar Holder.
Patented Sept. 21, 1880 UNIT D STATES PATENT OFFICE.
CAMPBELL GABRINGTON, OF WASHINGTON, DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA.
CIGAR-HOLDER.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 232,453, dated September 21, 1880.
i Application filed February 25,1880.
- To all whom it may concern Be it known that I, CAMPBELL (humme- TON, of Washington, in the District of O0- lumbia, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Cigar-Holders, of which the following is a specification.
The invention relates, as the titleindicates, to devices for holding cigars while being smoked; but my improvements especially relate to those of the kind in which spring clamping-jaws secured to a finger-ring hold the cigar in convenient position for smoking.
The object of my improvement is to furnish acigar-holder of this class provided with a a providing the finger-ring which carries the holding-jaws with a weighted resting and balancing foot; but the invention is hereinafter fully described with reference to the accompanying drawings, in which- Figure 1 represents a view, in perspective, of a cigar-holder embracing my invention, showing by dotted lines the manner in which the device is held by the index-finger; Fig. 2, a side elevation, showing the holder as supporting the cigar free from a table-top or other surface; and Fig.- 3, a perspective showing the match-strike.
In these drawings, A is a finger-ring B, a weighted foot-rest soldered or otherwise secured thereto; and O Q are spring-jaws, suitably fastened by astandard, a, to the ring, and adapted to receive and clasp the cigar; and c is the match-strike surface.
The foot-rest B is preferably of an oval or lozenge form, with its longer axis at right angles to the ring-band, for the sake of comfort and convenienoe in manipulating, and should also be' of sufficient weight to preserve its gravity when the cigar, with its holder, is temporarily laid upon the table. The longer axis of the weight need not be at right angles to the ring-band, and indeed some prefer the reverse. It may also be observed that instead of the spring clamping-jaws I may use the ordinary cigar-smoker attached by standard a to the ring; or the spring-jaws may have a sliding clamping-ring but I prefer to so temper them as to avoid this latter.
The inner sides of the spring-jaws may, if desired, be corrugated or roughened, as shown at b but the springs tension is all suflicient, as a rule.
While -my invention has all the advantages of the usual cigar-holders of this class in preventing the staining and seenting of the fingers, 850., the 'weightedfoot-rest gives the additional advantage of avoiding the turning of the ring, which would carry-with it the cigar during involuntary movements of the fingers, as the weighted foot balances the weight of the cigar in whatever position the hand may be placed, so that a person using it may write, drive, play billiards, shnflie cards, lift weights, row, fish, 800.; but the great advantage derived from my improvement of a cigarholding finger-ring with a weighted foot-rest is its capacity for supporting the cigar :in a secure and safe manner at an elevation above the surface of a card-table, billiard-table, or desk or other surface, thus preventing the scorching, burning, or staining of any wooden, marble, or cloth table surface; and, further, by such I avoid bringing the month end of the cigar into contact with dusty or wet surfaces, &c.a valuable consideration with tidy smokers.
After a cigar is partially smoked, it desired, it may, by means of my device, be left upon a desk, table, or mantel-piece in a safe position. p
The advantages of my improvement apply equally as well to cigarettes and cheroots as to cigars.
The matchvstrike c is shown on the under surface, but it may be on the top or edge, or ring or jaws.
I claimo In a holder for lighted cigars, the combina-
