Description

March 5, 1957 P. FRENCH ETAL 2,783,761
CIGARETTE HOLDERS Filed Feb. 25. 1954 United States Patent CIGARETTE HOLDERS Peter French and Marie L. C. French, Blind River, Ontario, Canada Application February 23, 1954, Serial No. 411,856
2 Claims. (Cl. 131-175) This invention relates to holders for cigarettes, and one object of the invention is to provide a cigarette holder which will prevent the lighted cigarette therein from causing any fire even though the holder be placed on combustible material since the cigarette therein is held well above this material.
Another object is to reduce the temperature of the smoke before it passes into the mouthpiece.
Another object of the invention is to provide a cigarette holder into which the cigarette is placed quite easily, and from which the ash may be readily removed, as hereinafter more particularly explained.
This holder comprises a removable tubular screen in which the cigarette is located in spaced relation to the screen; a mouthpiece, and cooling-chamber providing elements whereby the cigarette is held and the screen removably coupled to the mouthpiece, as hereinafter more particularly explained.
The article is simple in construction and can be readily taken apart for cleaning.
Figure 1 is a side elevation of the cigarette holder showing the relative positions of the tubular screen and the cigarette therein.
Fig. 2 is chiefly a longitudinal central section through Fig. 1.
Fig. 3 is a cross section on the line 33, Fig. 2.
In the drawings like characters of reference refer to the same parts.
The mouthpiece 2 has the usual passageway 3 therethrough and the outer end 2 thereof is provided with a chamber 4, opening through this outer end and communicating with the passageway 3. Held in said chamber 4 is a tubular member 5 which adjustably supports on its threaded outer end 5 the cylindrical threaded portion 6 of the support 6 and the frustum portion 16 of this support 6 carries a tubular member 15 in which is removably held the inner end 7 of the cigarette 7, and is so related to the tubular member 5 as to form an annular air space a therebetween. Theaxis of the tubular member 15 is in alignment with the longitudinal axis of the tubular member 5 and of the mouthpiece 2, and hence the cigarette is supported clear of the tubular screen 10. A cylinder 8 is removably mounted on the cylindrical portion of the support 6, and to this cylinder is fastened the inner end 9 of the tubular screen 10.
Within the tubular member 5 may be placed a suitable filtering material such as rock Wool or cotton 11. A screen 12 is held in said tubular member 5 to securely hold the filtering material in place. This screen may be removed to permit of the removal of the filtering material.
The outer end of the tubular screen is closed by a suitable screen 13.
The inner end of the tubular member 15, which is of smaller diameter than that of the tubular member 5, is therefore spaced apart from screen 12, as is also the inner end of the cigarette. Thus is provided a cooling chamber 14 within the tubular member 5, in which smoke may expand and thus lose some of its heat through the wall of the tubular member 5, more of which may be uncovered by the cylindrical part of the member 6 than shown in the drawings, thus further promoting cool smoking of the cigarette.
The outer end of the tubular member 5 abuts the frustum portion 16 of the cylindrical support 6 and in spaced relation to the tubular member 15 thus increasing the area of the chamber 14.
Since the tobacco in the inner end of the cigarette accumulates waste matter it is important that the tempera ture thereof be kept as low as possible to diminish absorption of tar and oils by the tobacco and permit them to be caught in the filtering material 11, which can be renewed easily after the smoking of 'a cigarette.
The cooling chamber 14 is a critical feature of this invention.
The screens used may be of any suitable material, but it will be understood that the holes therein, or the mesh thereof, must be of such size that it will be impossible for any red hot tobacco to pass therethrongh and yet permit an ample supply of air to the cigarette.
Various changes in construction may be made without departing from the spirit of the invention and the scope of the specification and claims.
What is claimed is:
l. A cigarette holder of the type described comprising an elongated mouthpiece having a cylindrical chamber in the outer end thereof and a passage extending longitudinally therethrough and communicating with said chamber, a tubular member, one portion of which is disposed within said chamber and another portion of which projects out of said chamber, said last mentioned por tion also being threaded, a support comprising a cylindrical threaded portion adjustably secured to the threaded portion of said tubular member and an outwardly projecting frusto-conical portion, and a second tubular member disposed within said first mentioned tubular member and said support in coaxial relation thereto and having its outer end secured to the outer smaller end of the frusto-conical portion of said support, said last mentioned tubular member being cylindrical and having its Wall sub- 'stantially radially spaced from the wall of said first mentioned tubular member to provide an annular space therebetween and being adapted to receive the inner end of a cigarette and having its inner end in substantial outward spaced relation to the outer end of said mouthpiece to provide a cooling chamber in which the inner end of the cigarette is disposed.
2. The combination as set forth in claim 1, including a mass of smoke filtering material disposed within the inner portion of said first mentioned tubular member, screen means securing said filtering material within said tubular member, a cigarette-surrounding tubular screen, and means securing said screen to said support.
