Definitions
- the invention relates to a portable container for extinguishing and for the temporary storage of cigarette ends of the type mentioned in the preamble of claim 1.
- a portable device for extinguishing cigarette ends is from WO
- the container contains four cylindrical blind holes. A burning cigarette butt can be inserted into each blind hole. The cigarette butt goes out automatically after several seconds.
- An ashtray with such a device for extinguishing cigarette butts is also known from US 3840027.
- This ashtray consists of a container that is open at the top and holds the extinguished cigarette butts and the device for extinguishing the cigarette butts.
- the device for extinguishing the cigarette ends can be rotated 180 degrees around a horizontal axis so that the cigarette ends fall into the container. Because of its size and because the container is open, this ashtray is not suitable as a portable container.
- a portable container for extinguishing and disposing of cigarette butts is known from US 6321757.
- This container contains a compartment for holding un-smoked cigarettes, a compartment for holding ashes and cigarette ends, and a blind hole for holding a burning cigarette end.
- the cigarette butt must be inserted into the blind hole in question to extinguish it and, after it has been extinguished, removed from the blind hole by hand and placed in the compartment for the ashes and cigarette stub.
- the invention has for its object a portable container for the
- a container according to the invention for extinguishing and temporarily storing cigarette butts consists of a housing formed by two housing halves, the first housing half containing a drum rotatable about an axis with at least one recess running parallel to the axis for temporarily holding a cigarette stub, and wherein the second half of the housing forms a closed chamber from the surroundings for storing the deleted cigarette ends.
- the housing contains an opening through which a cigarette butt to be disposed of is introduced into one of the recesses in the drum.
- the opening of the housing is opposite one end of the drum.
- the drum is rigidly connected to a cover that either exposes or covers the opening of the housing.
- the drum is divided into at least two, preferably many, sub-bodies, with adjacent sub-bodies being separated by a gap running perpendicular to the axis.
- An element arranged on a side wall of the container, which protrudes into the associated gap, is assigned to each gap.
- each element changes the cross section of the recess. This change in cross-section causes the cigarette butt to be transported out of the recess when the lid is turned, so that it is now in the chamber.
- FIG. 1 is an exploded view of a container according to the invention for extinguishing burning cigarette butts and temporarily storing the deleted cigarette butts,
- FIG. 2 shows the container disassembled into its individual parts in an exploded view
- 3 shows the container in assembled form, with a small modification compared to the example according to FIG. 2,
- the container consists of a two-part housing, the two housing halves of which are designated by the reference numerals 1 and 2, and a cover 3, which is rotatable about an axis 4 running in the longitudinal direction of the housing.
- the cover 3 contains at least one opening 5, preferably two openings as in the example shown.
- the diameter of the opening 5 is a little larger, for example 1.5 mm, than the diameter of a cigarette.
- the two housing halves 1 and 2 are detachably attached to each other. For example, they can be moved against each other in the longitudinal direction of the housing.
- FIG. 2 shows the container disassembled into its individual parts in an exploded view and FIG. 3 shows the assembled container, but all individual parts are shown transparently. 3, the reference numerals have been omitted with one exception for the sake of clarity of the drawing.
- the example in FIG. 3 contains a small modification compared to the example in FIG. 2.
- the reference number 26 relating to the modification was entered, its meaning will be explained later.
- the two housing halves 1 and 2 each consist of a side wall 6 and 7, a bottom 8 or 9 and a top wall 10 or 11.
- the top wall 10 of the first housing half 1 has a bore 12 for receiving a rod 13 fastened to the lid 3 and an opening 14 which is in certain rotational positions of the lid 3 one of the two openings 5 of the cover 3 is aligned.
- the bottom 8 of the first housing half 1 contains a recess 15 for the axial mounting of the rod 13.
- a cylindrical drum 17 is attached to the rod 13.
- the drum 17 comprises a bore 18 for receiving the rod 13.
- the drum 17 is provided with at least one recess 21.
- the number of recesses 21 is equal to the number of openings 5 in the cover 3 and the recesses 21 are aligned with the openings 5 in the cover 3.
- the recesses 21 are dimensioned in such a way that a cigarette can be accommodated therein.
- the drum 17 is divided in the longitudinal direction into a number of n identical drum parts 19, the are separated by a gap 20 each.
- the number n of drum parts is 1 greater than the number of elements 16.
- the drum parts 19 preferably form a single body, ie the drum 17 is preferably formed in one piece.
- the second housing half 2 preferably contains an inner floor 22 which is curved such that the distance from the floor 9 increases with increasing distance from the rod 13.
- the inner floor 22 can either be arranged on the floor 9 as shown or on the top wall 11.
- the elements 16 are in the columns 20.
- the elements 16 have approximately the shape of a triangle, with, optionally, one side of the triangle being curved.
- the opening 14 of the container is located opposite an end face 25 of the drum 17.
- one of the openings 5 of the cover 3, the opening 14 of the container and one of the recesses 21 of the drum 17 are aligned. so that a cigarette butt can be inserted and temporarily received by the recess 21.
- the elements 16 are preferably very thin and the gaps 20 between the
- Drum parts 19 are correspondingly narrow in order to keep the air circulation between the chamber with the cigarette stubs and the recesses 21 in the drum 17 as small as possible, so that a cigarette stub brought into the recess 21 extinguishes as quickly as possible due to a lack of air supply.
- the height of a drum part 19 can be approximately the same size as the filter piece of a commercially available cigarette, that is to say approximately eight to twelve millimeters.
- the height of a gap 20 should be less than the diameter of a cigarette to prevent the cigarette butt from clogging the gap 20 and possibly blocking the whole mechanism.
- the height of the drum parts 19 and the gaps 20 is preferably 1 to 3 millimeters.
- the first housing half 1 essentially serves to accommodate and
- the second housing half 2 forms a chamber that is closed to the environment for storing the deleted cigarette butts.
- the drum 17 and the elements 16 serve to convey an extinguished cigarette stub from the first housing half 1 into the second housing half 2.
- the assembled container works as follows:
- the lid 3 is rotated to a position in which one of the
- Openings 5 exposes the opening 14 in the top wall 10 of the first housing half 1. A burning cigarette butt or even a cigarette that has just been lit can now be pushed into the first housing half 1 through the opening 5.
- the cigarette end is also moved in the direction of the longitudinal axis of the drum 17. This movement supports the detachment of the cigarette butt from the body 17 and ensures that even a cigarette butt adhering or sticking to the body 17 is detached without problems.
- FIGS. 4 to 6 illustrate how the cigarette butt is increasingly conveyed out of the recess 21 in the body 17 when the lid 3 is rotated due to the action of the elements 16.
- These figures show a top view of one of the elements 16, one edge of which is attached to the side wall 6, one of the drum parts 19 and a cigarette end 24.
- the size of the container is sized to be comfortable from a human
- the side walls 6 and 7 of the two housing halves 1 and 2 have two parallel walls, which are connected by a semicircular arch, so that the shape of the container is similar to the shape of a 4.5 V flat battery.
- the length of the container in the direction of axis 4 is dimensioned so that there is room for an entire, just burned-in cigarette.
- the chamber formed by the second housing half 2 offers space for about ten to twenty cigarette ends. The number of course depends on the size of the cigarette ends.
- the second housing half 2 can also be made wider than the first housing half 1.
- the opening 14 of the container is released, with advantageous snap-in positions provided.
- snap-in positions are advantageously provided for the intermediate positions in which the cover 3 covers the opening 14 of the container. In the example with two openings 5 in the cover 3, four latching positions offset by 90 ° are therefore provided.
- the elements 16 can be realized in different ways. They can, for example, be formed in one piece with the first housing half 1 or can be inserted into the side wall 6 of the first housing half 1 from the outside or from the inside as individual elements or elements connected by a web, for example by means of a snap mechanism. Another variant, which is shown in FIG. 3, is the end of the
- a further variant consists in using a single-part or multi-part housing instead of a two-part housing, in which the two housing halves 1 and 2 are detachably fastened to one another, in which either the top wall 11 or the base 9 is designed in such a way that that the chamber with the cigarette butts can be emptied.
- the bottom 9 comprises a hinged lid, so that the container can be emptied easily.
