TOBACCO-PIPE.
.NO. 7,693. 1 Reissued May 22,1877.
PATENT OFFICE.
UNITED, STATES BLASE LORILLARD, RHINEBEOK, NEW YORK.
IMPROVEMENT IN TOBACCO-PIPES.
Specification forming-part of Letters PatentNo.172 ,463, dated January 18, 1876; reissue No. 7 ,093, dated 7 May 22,1872; application filed May 1, 1877.
To all whom tt may concern:
Be it known that I, BLASE LORILLARD, of Rhinebeck, in the county of Dutchess and 'State of New York, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Tobacco or Smoking Pipes, of which the following is a, description, reference being had to the accompanying drawing, forming part of this specification.
One of the objects of this invention is to prevent the disagreeable and injurious efl'ects arising from the eminently poisonous and oily substance in tobacco called nicotine, an alkaloid which, in a pure state, quickly liquefies on being exposed to the atmosphere, and is generally present in considerable quantities in the bowl of an ordinary pipe after the tobacco has been consumed. Its taste is very 'acrid, and is diificult to be eradicated from the mouth, and its very pungent and disagreeable odor is long retained by anything coming in contact with it, especial], woolen or other clothing. Furthermore, it Is injurious to health, and, if taken internally to any considerable extent, acts as a deadly poison.
In pipes, as heretofore constructed, the smoke necessarily passes or is drawn through the unburnt tobacco, which becomes sufliciently heated to set free more or less of the nicotine gas or oil, which is then drawn with the tobacco-smoke through the stem of the pipe into the mouth.
My invention consists in a smoking-pipe of novel construction, whereby the smoke is drawn through and from the fire of the burning tobacco without passing through the unburnt body or portion of the tobacco in the bowl of the pipe, and thereforeth'e smoke from the tobacco which is drawn through the stem of the pipe into the mouth is free from the poisonous nicotine, and, consequently, the flavor and purity of the smoke remain the same at all times while the tobacco in the pipe is being smoked.
The invention also consists in a certain com-, bination of parts in a pipe of such construction, whereby the advantages due to a withdrawal of the smoke or products of combustion without passing through the unburnt tobacco are obtained in a pipe made to provide forthe combustion of the tobacco from below. I v
Figure 1 represents a side view of abaseburning tobacco-pipe constructed in accordance with my invention. Fig. 2 is a vertical section of the same, and'Fig. 3 aplan of'the part marked E in Fig. 2.
A represents an outer case or shell, which may be madeof metal or any suitable material. This case is closed at the top by a cap, B, which may be screwed on, or made to slip in, the top a short distance, as shown. Said case is closed at the bottom by a piece, 0, which may be permanently attached. D is the bowl or chamber in which the tobacco is burned. It is attached to or made to form a part of the cap B, and maybe made of metal or other suitable material, The lower part of this chamber is closed by a disk, E, which is suitably perforated, or is of a slatted construction, as shown inFig. 3, or it may be made of wire-cloth. This piece forms a grate, and supplies air to the tobacco, the combustion of which is from below. Said piece may be hinged to the chamber or bowl D, as shown in Figs. 2 and 3, or it may be permanently fixed to the outer shell A. Near the base of the bowl orchamber D are small perforations d d, through which the smoke is withdrawn, the portion of the outer case or shell A around saidbowl and the exterior surface of the latter leaving-a space between the bowl and the case, or, in other words, forming a smoke duct or chamber, :5, which connects the bowl, through its perforations d, with the smokeoutlet or draft-tube F, toor with which the stem or mouth-piece of the pipe connects.
By this arrangement the smoke duct or chamber S connects the smoke-outlet'or drafttube F with the bowl or chamber D, in which the tobacco is burned, at the tiring end of the bowl, or in closer proximity to the burning surface of the tobacco than to the remaining portion or body of it in the bowl, thus causing the smoke or products of combustion to be withdrawn without passing through the unburnt tobacco.
An opening is mad-e in' the outer shell A below the grate E, for inserting a lighter to ignite the tobacco, and for supplying air to it. Such an opening, b, is shown in Fig. 1, and the same represented as provided with a lid or door, a, for-entirely or partially closing said opening after the pipe is lighted. There may also be a small tapering plug, 8, arranged to fit an opening in the top of the outer shell,
and attached to the pipe by a small chain.
When this plug is removed, a slight circulation of air is allowed,'which serves to keep the fire from being extinguished when there is occasion to leave the pipe out of the mouth for a few minutes.
To fill the pipe, the cap B, and with it the bowl or tobacco holding and burning chamber D, may be removed from the outer shell.
Said bowl or chamber D is made conical, to
facilitate the automatic feed of the tobacco to the fire at the base of the .bowl.
I claim-- 1. The combination, with the bowl or chamber in which the tobacco-is burned and the smoke-outlet or draft-tube, with which the stem or mouth-piece of the pipe connects, of a smoke duct or chamber arranged to con- -nect said smoke outlet or draft-tube and said bowl at the firing end of the latter, and in closer proximity to the burning surface of the tobacco than to the remaining portion or body of it in the bowl, whereby the smoke is drawn through and from the fire of the burning to bacco without passing through the unburnt body or portion of the tobacco, substantially as specified.-
2. A smoking-pipe in which are-combined an outer shell, A, constructed to form a smokeduct or chamber, and provided with a smokeoutlet or draft-tube, an inner chamber or bowl, D, and a grate, E, essentially as herein described.
BLASE LORILLARD.
