Description
Aug. 24, 1943. w, E, POWERS ASHTRAY Filed Jan. 16, 1942 Patented Aug. 24, 1943 UNITED STATES. PATENT OFFICE ASH TRAY William E. Powers, Dayton, Ohio Application January 16, 1942, Serial No. 427,051 1 Claim. ((1. 131-240) This invention relates to an ash tray of the portable character which may be placed on any table, desk or other support with safety and will provide a maximum capacity for ashes and the accommodation of cigarette or cigar butts having a centrally arranged portion on which ignited.
cigarettes or cigars may be rested with a maximum amount of safety and which may be employed to easily and quickly extinguish a cigarette when desired.
Another object of this invention is the provision of means on the central portion of the device to support ignited cigarettes or cigars permitting free circulation of air thereabout to prevent cigarette or cigar sweating and consequently obviate the taste of the cigarette or cigar from being affected when left for a period of time thereon and in a burning state.
With these and other objects in view as will become more apparent a the description proceeds, the invention consists in certain novel features of construction, combination and arrangement of parts as will be hereinafter more fully described and claimed. I
For a complete understanding of my invention, reference is to be had to the following description and accompanying drawing, in which Figure 1 is a top plan view illustrating an ash tray constructed in accordance with my invention.
Figure 2 is a vertical sectional view illustrating the device.
Figure 3 is a detail sectional view taken on the line 3-3 of Figure 1, showing means to prevent cigar or cigarette sweating when left rested on the device in a burning state.
Figure 4 is a view similar to Figure 3 illustrating a modified form of the invention.
Referring in detail to the drawing, the numeral 5 indicates the body of the device which i preferably of saucer shape having a flat bottom wall 6 and upstanding walls integral therewith. An enlargement 8 is integral with the top face of the bottom wall 6 and terminates a distance above the vertical walls I defining within the body an annular recess 9 for the accommodation of a maximum amount of ashes, cigar or cigarette butts.
The portion 8 has formed therein a chamber or recess l0 and provided in the bottom wall H thereof with a series of tapered sockets I! which may be. employed for the extinguishing of burning cigarettes by the insertion of the burning end therein. The upper edge of the portion 8 has formed therein a series of recesses I! to form rests-.101 the accommodation of burning or ignited cigarettes or cigars.
In applying a clear or cigarette in a burning state to therest, the burning end is disposed either over the recess 9 or recess I 0 and should the cigarette or cigar burn to such an extent that it becomes unbalanced on the rest it will fall either into the recess 9 or I 0 and consequently be prevented from falling on the floor, desk or other support on which the body 5 is placed.
The upper edge of the portion 8 of the body has arranged on opposite sides of the recesses l3 sockets for the accommodation of substantially U shaped supporting bars or members I3, the free ends of which are angularly disposed and positioned in the sockets, positioning the major portions of the bars within the recesses l3 and spaced from the major portions of the walls thereof to prevent contact of a burning cigar or cigarette therewith, allowing substantially free circulation of air about the supported portion of the cigar or cigarette which will eliminate to a minimum cigar or cigarette sweating.
By eliminating to a minimum cigar or cigarette sweating, the taste of the cigar or cigarette will be less affected when left burning in a rested position upon the device. The bars or members l3 may b easily removed for cleaning and also permit the walls of the recesses l3 to be easily cleaned.
Referring to my modified form of the invention, the recesses l3 may have formed in the walls thereof sockets I4 for the accommodation of pins IE to take the place of the U shaped members l3. It will be noted that the pins l5 are arranged in converging relation toward their supporting ends so that when a cigarette or cigar is placed thereon it will be supported away from the walls of the recess l3 and thereby allow a substantially free circulation of air thereabout to prevent sweating.
While I have shown and described the preferred embodiment. of my invention, it will be understood that minor changes in construction. combination and arrangement of parts may be made without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention as claimed.
Havin thus claim is:
In an ash tray, standing portion described the invention, what I a saucer-shaped body, an uplocated centrally of and integral .with the body and having a recess providing an
