WINDPROOF ASH TRAY Filed Dec. 20, 1948 IN V EN TOR.
ATTOR/Vf Patented Nov. 13, 1 951 UNITED STATES Y PATENT OFFICE I 2,574,813 I V WINDPROOF ASH TRAY Joseph A. Cadrain, New Britain, Conn.
Application December 20, 1948, Serial No. 66,320
This invention relates to ash trays, and more particularly to an ash tray having a grating for removing the burning end portions of cigars and cigarettes.
One object of this invention is to provide a device of the above nature in which the burning end portions and ashes will drop into a central compartment, wherein they will be segregated from cigar and cigarette butts or other combustible material deposited in an outer compartment.
Another object is to provide a device of the above nature which is provided on the top with cigarette rests in open communication with the outer compartment.
Another object is to provide a device of the above nature in which both of the compartments will be shielded so as to prevent ashes from being blown therefrom by drafts of air.
A further object is to provide a device of the above nature which will be simple in construction, inexpensive to manufacture, easy to use and manipulate, compact, ornamental in appearance, and very efiicient and durable in use.
With these and other objects in view, there have been illustrated on the accompanying drawing two forms in which the invention may be conveniently embodied in practice.
In the drawing,
Fig. 1 is a front view of one form of the improved ash tray.
Fig. 2 is a plan view thereof.
Fig. 3 is a perspective view of the same.
Referring now to the drawing in which like reference numerals denote corresponding parts throughout the several views, the numeral 10 indicates a circular receptacle comprising a bowl I l and a cover l2 which are releasably secured together by any suitable means such as pin and slot connections I3. The bowl I I has an exterior circular bottom groove [4 in which a series of feet l5 are secured by means of screws It.
The interior of the receptacle i0 is divided into a central compartment I1 and an outer annular compartment l8 by means of a tapered vertical sleeve l9 which engages the bottom of the bowl I l and which is provided with a flared upper exterior end portion 20, said sleeve being secured in a central aperture in the cover I 2.
The tapered sleeve [9 is provided at the bottom of the flared portion 20 with an interior shoulder 2i upon which is secured a horizontal grating 22 having circular apertures 23 which are substantially smaller than the diameter of a cigarette.
1 Claim. (01. 131-4542) Thus, when the lighted end of a cigarette is rubbed across the surface of the grating 22, the resulting abrasion will remove the burning embers and ashes, and permit them to drop through the apertures 23 into the central compartment ll, while the remaining butt will be prevented from entering said compartment.
The cover i2 is also provided with a plurality of horizontal concave cigarette rests 24 which extend inwardly at an angle from the periphery of the cover 12, and are approximately tangent to the exterior of the tapered sleeve [9. The cigarette rests 24 may be formed by striking portions of the cover I2 inwardly and are provided with openings 25 into the outer annular compartment [8 at the inner ends of said rests.
Operation In operation, the smoker may lay his lighted cigar or cigarette upon any of the rests 24 whenever desired, the lighted end preferably being disposed inwardly of one of the openings 25, so that any ashes dropping therefrom will fall into the outer compartment [8.
When the user wishes to extinguish his cigar or cigarette he may remove the burning end merely by rubbing the cigar or cigarette across the grating 22 so that the burning embers will fall into the central compartment ll. The remainder of the cigarette may then be dropped into the outer compartment l8 through one of the openings 25, so that it cannot become reignited from the embers in the compartment ll.
Whenever necessary, the cover may easily be twisted upon and lifted from the bowl II to permit emptying of the receptacle l0.
While there have been disclosed in this specification a form in which the invention may be embodied, it is to be understood that this form is shown for the purpose of illustration only, and that the invention is not to be limited to the specific disclosure, but may be modified and embodied in various other forms without departing from its spirit. In short, the invention includes all the modifications and embodiments coming within the scope of the following claims.
Having thus fully described the invention, what is claimed as new, and for which it is desired to secure Letters Patent, is:
An ash tray comprising a receptacle having a circular upwardly concave bottom, a cover therefor, said cover having a circular central opening, a substantially conical tube extending downwardly through said opening and having an edge contacting said bottom and being closed thereformed by depressing portions of said cover to form said recesses, whereby cigar and cigarette butts may be received in the bottom of the ash tray between said conical tube and the outer wall of said bottpn W JOSEPH A.
