Description

1954 'A. D. RAWLINGS CIGARETTE QR CIGAR Filed Nov. 30, 1949 Inventor A. D. Ram/{1178 By a Aflorn Patented Feb. 16, 1954 'UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE Claims priority, application Great Britain December 9, 1948 1 Claim.
This invention relates to, and has for its object the provision of improvements in, cigarettes or cigars.
The invention consists broadly of a cigarette or cigar having attached to one end thereof a rolled strip adapted to be drawn out by its innermost turns so that it assumes the form of a tapered tube which serves as a holder, wherein said rolled strip has an annular ridge formed integrally with, or mounted directly on, an edge portion thereof remote from the cigarette, which annular ridge, when the strip is drawn out, constitutes a flange at that extremity of the tapered tube to facilitate the retention of the latter in the mouth of the smoker.
In order that the invention may be the more clearly understood a cigarette in accordance therewith will now be described, reference being made to the accompanying drawings wherein:
Figure 1 is an elevational view of the cigarette when the mouth piece is pulled out to the operative position,
Figure 2 is an elevational view of the same when the mouth piece is still at the collapsed or nonoperative position,
Figure 3 is a longitudinal section of the mouth piece in one stage of its manufacture,
Figure 4 is a similar view at the succeeding stage,
Figure 5 is a similar view of the completed mouth piece when affixed to the cigarette,
Figure 6 is a cross section on line VI-VI of Figure 5,
Figure 7 is a similar View to Figure 6 illustrating a modification.
Referring to the drawings a strip l of waxed paper or any other suitable material is wound into a roll and is attached coaxially to the end of the cigarette 2 by means of the outermost turn. When the cigarette is to be smoked, this roll is drawn out by its innermost turn longitudinally of the cigarette so that it assumes the form of a tapered tube as shown in Figure 1. This tube serves the purpose of a cigarette holder.
To enable the smoker to retain easily the end of the tapered tube in his mouth, a ridge 3 is provided which forms a circumferential flange at the end of said tapered tube, which the smoker may easily hold with his lips or teeth.
To form this ridge 3 the end portion of the strip which is to be the inner end portion is coated with a suitable adhesive for a iven distance from the extremity, Thus when the strip is first rolled up as in Figure 3 the three or four innermost turns of the roll stick together so as to form a relatively stiff tubular core, as indicated at la.
When the adhesive is fully set, said tubular core la is drawn a small distance longitudinally out of the roll as shown in Figure 4. Next, by means of a suitable tool the extremity of said core la is bent out and doubled back under considerable pressure in the manner indicated in Figure 5 and thus the aforesaid ridge 3 is formed. The core la is then pushed back and it will be seen that the ridge 3 will remain projecting for easy extraction when the cigarette is to be smoked.
The rolled strip is then secured coaxially to the cigarette 2. This is effected by abutting it to the end of the cigarette 2 and wrapping a short strip of paper 4 with adhesive on it jointly around the rolled strip and the end of the cigarette.
Alternatively the ridgemay be formed as shown in Figure '7. That is to say the core la is pushed out as before and a ridge 3b of a suitable synthetic resin is moulded round its end.
In some cases the adhesive might be dispensed with and the ridges 3 or 31) relied on to retain the turns of the core Ia together.
I claim:
As an article of manufacture, a cigarette or cigar, an integral strip of material of uniform width comprising a roll having a bore, the outer turn of said strip being secured to one end of said cigarette or cigar with the roll substantially coaxial with said cigarette or cigar, a plurality of the inner turns of said strip together forming a core, said plurality of inner turns being displaced axially a small distance from the remaining turns in a direction away from said cigarette or cigar and the projecting end portion of said plurality of inner turns remote from said cigarette or cigar being doubled back outwardly whereby the turns constituting the core are locked together and an integral ridge is formed on the outside of said core, whereby by drawing said ridge and core axially away from said cigarette or cigar, the remaining turns of said strip are drawn into the form of a tapered tube whereby the remaining turns and the tapered tube may serve as a holder, and said ridge constitutes a flange at its extremity of said holder.
