TOBACCO-PIPE.

Specification of Letters Patent. Patented J uly. 11, 191 1.

Application filed December 6, 1910. Serial No. 595,862..

To all whom it may concern:

. Be it known that I, Join: AL EN, a citizenof the- United States,res1d1ng at Chippewa,

" in the county of Chippewa and State of Visconsin, have invented a new and, useful Tobacco-Pipe, ofwhich the following is a specification I This invention relates to tobacco ,pipes, one of its objects lieing to provide a pipe having means whereby nicotin, saliva, to;

baccoash et cetera may be trapped within.

the pipe bowlnnd will not interfere withthe free circulation of smoke from the bowl to the mouth piece. 1

A further object is to provide a pipe bowl made up of sections which can be readily disconnected for the purpose of cleaning the jlnother object is to provide -means whereby the substances trapped within the bowl will be preventedfrom fallingbac'lr into the tobacco contiaining portion of the pipe should the pipe -e placed upon its side or inverted.

lVit-h the foregoing and other objects 'in view which will appear as the description proceeds, the invention resides in the combination and arrangement ofparts and in Referring to the figures by characters of" reference 1 designates the middle member of the pipe, this member being preferably formed of glass or aluminum and havingits ends counter-sunk, as indicated at 2, tlie Walls of the counter-sunk portions being screwthreaded. A centrally disposed nipple 3 extends from one end'of the member 1 and is provided with a central passage 4 extending into the member 1. and opening into aseries of apertures 5 formed in' the other end of the member 1. A tapered opening 6 extends into the member 1 and communicates with the passage 4, this open ing beingdesigned to receive the tapered end of a pipe stem 7 which may be of hard rubber or other material.

That end of'the member 1 from which the nipple 3'extends is designed to receive a screwthreaded flange 8 formed about the open end of a cup like receiver 9 preferably formed of metal. This receiver, when screwed into engagement-with the member 1, receives the nipple 4. The other end of said member 1 is designed to receive the reduced'screwthreaded end 10 of a bowl member 11 formed of wood or other suitable material and open at the bottom so as to expose the apertures 5 hereinbefore referred to. The pipe is to be used as ordinarily, the tobacco being placedwithin the bowl member 11. Itwill be apparent that the smoke will pass through the apertures 5 to passage 4 and thence directly into the stem 7. Any saliva, nicotin or .tobacco ash entering the openings 5 will pass downwardly through the nipple 3 and into receivenf), thus keeping the stem clear at'all times. pipe be laid upon its side or be inverted, the contents of the receiver 9 will be pre vented, by nipple 3, from passing back into tl ie passage 4 and clogging the pipe.

lhe various parts can be readily Ll1SC0ll nected for the purpose of cleaning them and, by making the. parts 1 and 4 of glass or metal, the pipe can be kept cleaner than where all parts of the same, except the stem, are made of wood, as ordinarily.

What is claimed is 2- A tobacco pipe includinga central nonabsorbent. section having an axial bore opening, at one end, into a plurality of apertures, a bowl section detachably engaging the aperturedend portion of said central. section, a receiver detaohabl y engaging and depending Should the from the other end of said central section, there being a central nipple upon the lower end of the central section and hanging within the receiving section, said bore being extended through the nipple, and a stem opening into the bore and extending radially from the central section.

In testimony that I claim the foregoing as my own, I have hereto afiixcd my signature in the presence of two witnesses.
