This invention relates to smoking implements, and more particularly to implements of the type which prevent the passage of loose particles of tobacco to the smokers mouth.
It is the primary object of the present invention to provide ina cigar holder or pipe an implement which successfully keeps loose particles of tobacco from the usual passage through which smoke is conducted to the users mouth and in which saliva may readily accumulate, thereby eliminating not only the biting sensation experienced when loose particles of tobacco get into ones mouth, but also the bad taste and smell which is so often encountered by smokers when tobacco and saliva mix in the smoke passage of a cigar holder or pipe.
It'is another important object of the present invention to provide in a cigar holder or pipe an implement of this type which does not readily become clogged, does not require replacement, does not interfere with, or in any way modify, the accustomed response to the user's draw for smoke, and is readily cleaned without requiring any skill.
The above and other objects, features and advantages of the present invention will be more fully understood from the following description considered in connection with the accompanying illustrative drawings.
In the drawings:
Fig. 1 is an enlarged side elevational view of a cigar holder embodying the present invention;
Fig. 2 is a longitudinal section through the holder as taken on the line 22 of Fig.- 1;
Fig. 3 is an enlarged longitudinal section through a detail of the holder; and
Fig. 4 is a side elevation, partly in section, of a pipe embodying the present invention in a modified manner.
Referring to the drawings, and more particularly to Figs. 1 and 2 thereof, the reference numeral III designates a cigar holder which, in the present instance, comprises a mouth piece I2 and a receptacle I4 for the end of cigar C. The parts I2 and I4 of the holder I are, in the present instance, held in the assembled relation shown by means of a short sleeve I6, which is threadedly received at I8 in the mouth piece I2 and is provided with a collar for drawing the receptacle I4 into firm engagement with the mouth piece l2.
Press fitted or otherwise suitably secured in the sleeve l6, and preferably additionally attached thereto as by brazing, for instance, is a hell-like element 22 which may advantageously 4 Claims. (Cl. 131-188) 2 be made from a strip of sheet metal or any other suitable material that is twisted in any suitable manner into the spiral shape shown in Figs. 2 and 3. Preferably successive turns or convolutions of the spiral element 22 are formed gradually narrower so that the latter will be tapered, at least that part thereof which projects from the sleeve I6. The outer end of the spiral element 22 may be worked in any suitable manner into a substantially closed and relatively sharp tip 24. Thus a continuous spiral gap 28 is provided in the wall of the shell-like element 22 which constitutes a very considerable area of communication between the outside of the element and the interior 26 thereof, yet the spiral gap 28 does not extend to the tip 24 of the element which is advantageous as explained hereinafter.
In using the holder III, a cigar C is forced into the receptacle I4, whereby the end e of the cigar becomes impaled on the element 22 in the fashion shown in Fig. 2. Due to the provision of the relatively sharp'tip- 24 on the element 22, the cigar C will require very little forcing in order to become properly impaled on the element 22. The cigar C is preferably forced into the receptacle I4 so that it bears against the sleeve I6 in the manner shown in Fig. 2, in order that the spiral gap 28 in the element 22 may provide communication only between the impaled cigar C and the smoke passage 30 in the mouth piece I2. r
In order more firmly to hold the cigar in the receptacle I4 and prevent its breakage inthe vicinity of the element 22 on which it is impaled. there is slidable on the periphery of the receptacle I4 2. holdingsleeve 32 which may be extended thereon in the'manner shown in Figs. 1 and 2 so as firmly to grip the cigar and hold it more securely in the receptacle I4.
The-relatively long spiral gap 28 in the element 22 forms'a passage between the interior of' the cigar and the interior 26 of the element 22 through which the customary amount of smoke may readily pass in response to the users accustomed draw. The interior 26 of the element 22 is also of sufficient cross-sectional area to conduct, without obstruction, all the smoke that may be drawn from the cigar by the user. Since the spiral gap 28 does not extend clear to the tip 24 of the element 22 which pierces the end of the cigar when the latter is inserted into the receptacle l4, the gap 28 is not liable to become readily clogged, and will always remain suiiiciently open so as not to interfere with the accustomed smoking enjoyment by the user even if part of this gap should become clogged with loose tobacco. Further, the considerable area of communication between the exterior and interior of the element 22, as constituted by the spiral gap 28 therein, afiords the possibility to make the element 22 of relatively small diameter without obstructing the passage through the element of all the smoke that may possibly be drawn by a smoker.
Fig. lg-illustrates a modified application of the instant invention to a conventional pipe 40. Thus, a spirally wound element 22' of the same general construction as the previously described element 22 may be press-fitted in a sleeve TB that may threadedly be received at H! in the pipe 40, so that the interior of the spiral element 22 is in permanent communication with the passage 42 in the pipe that leads to the mouth piece 44. The element 22' difiers from the previously described element 22 in that the closed tip tl ithfileof in the bowl 51') of ,the pipe is more or less smoothly rounded in any suitable manner. The round or dull tip 56 oftheelement 22' is essential to protect the fingers of the pipe smoker when packingtobacco into the bowl 56 of the pipe, asr will be readily understood. The spiral gap 28 in'the element 22 admits to the passage 42 the pipe all the smoke that the smoker can possiblydraw, yet this gap 23' effectively prevents loose particles of tobacco from reaching the passage '52 in which saliva is liable to accumulate, depending on the smoking habits of the user. Thus, if saliva should accumulate in the passage 42, at least no tobacco may mix with it and spoilthe smokers tastefor his pipe.
. While I have shown and describedthe preferred embodiments of my invention, it will be understood that various changes may be made in the presentinvention without departingfrom the-underlying idea or principles of the invention within the scope of the appended claims. 7
Havingthusdescribed my invention, what I claim and-desire to secure by Letters Patent, is:
to hold the end of a cigar, a mouthpiece and a smoke passage between said receptacle and mouthpiece, a sheila-like element having one end formed asa closed, relatively sharp tip and adapted tofitwith its open ,end'in said passage, said element adapted to project into said receptacle soas to penetrate a cigar inserted endwise into said receptacle, and having in its wall at least within the confines of said receptacle a spiral gapwhich extends throughsaid wall, said spiral gap being formed of relatively closely spaced convolutionswhereby to prevent the passage of loose particles of tobacco therethrough.
2. 'In acigar holder having a receptacle adapted to hold the end of a cigar, al mouthpiece and a smoke passage between said receptacle and mouthpiece, a shell-like element having one end 1.
