Definitions

  • This invention relates generally to devices and methods to help people stop smoking.
  • the present disclosure is directed to a mobile device and method (also referred to by the inventors as the Smoke No More device) which is an electronic device to assist smokers in weaning themselves off of cigarettes.
  • the device is designed to afford the smoker access to a predetermined number of cigarettes per day. Each day the device reduces the amount of times it opens; effectively decreasing the number of cigarettes the individual has access to until they have been completely weaned.
  • Digital photographs and recorded messages of loved ones may be included as part of the device to motivate individuals to stay on course. This product is ideal for use by smokers who would like to quit for the first time, or for individuals who have tried numerous times to quit smoking and have been unsuccessful.
  • the present disclosure is directed to a device that stores cigarettes and only releases a single cigarette at a time, preventing another cigarette from being released while the lid of the device is open. After a cigarette is taken out, and the lid is closed properly, the lid locks automatically. Only then, is the slot free for another cigarette to slide into the waiting channel to be released when the lid is reopened. Audio/ visual messages, are activated simultaneously with the opening of the single-cigarette lid.
  • the present disclosure is directed to a computer- implemented method for reducing cigarette consumption including: (A) providing a processor and a memory connected to the processor; (B) recording the total number of cigarettes consumed by a smoker in a day prior to reduction and storing the original number of cigarettes in the memory; (C) recording the number of hours the smoker is awake in a day and storing the number of hours awake in the memory; (D) recording the time of day the smoker awakes and storing the wakeup time of day in the memory; (E) with the processor, (a) calculating the time interval between cigarettes by dividing the recorded number of original cigarettes by the recorded number of hours awake; (b) generating and storing in the memory a schedule of times for cigarette consumption for the first day by: (i) adding the time interval between cigarettes to the wakeup time to determine the time of the first cigarette consumption, (ii) adding the time interval between cigarettes to the time of the first cigarette consumption to determine the time of the subsequent cigarette consumptions; (iii) repeating step (E)(b
  • the present disclosure is directed to a device for reducing cigarette consumption comprising: a processor for controlling operations of the device; a memory associated with the processor; input means for inputting data to the processor and the memory; a case body dimensioned to contain cigarettes; a first lid on the body which removably engages with the case body and which moves from a first closed position to a second opened position for permitting cigarettes to be loaded into the device, first locking means for locking and unlocking the first lid; a dispensing means which engages with the case body and which moves from a first closed position to a second opened position for permitting only a single cigarette to be removed from the case body, the dispensing means comprising a window to enable viewing of a cigarette when in the dispensing means; second locking means for locking and unlocking the dispensing means signalling means for signalling a user when a cigarette can be dispensed from the dispensing means; display means for displaying a visual message; and audio means for broadcasting an audio message.

To begin, the user sets the timer of the device 2 for 45 minutes (the user only needs to set the timer once), and fills the device 2 completely at the start of his/her day (at approximately the same time of day every time thereafter when needed); by day 30, the user will be down to smoking 6 scheduled cigarettes per day and will only need to fill the device once every four days.

  • the mechanism for dispensing a single cigarette can be one such as a dispensing solenoid. If the smoker does not need the cigarette 21 at that moment, or is not in a designated smoking area when the alarm goes off, the device 2 remains unlocked, allowing the smoker to take out the cigarette at a later time when it is convenient.
  • the timer restarts itself once the cigarette 21 is released and the dispensing 23 lid is properly closed.

  • the device On day two following the initial set-up, the device is automatically set to increase the time interval between dispensing cigarettes by 5 minutes. Therefore, instead of the lid 23 opening once every 45 minutes, the lid 23 will now open once every 50 minutes for that day. On day three following the initial set-up, the lid 23 will automatically open once every 55 minutes for that day and so on.
  • the device will automatically increase the time interval between dispensing cigarettes by 5 minutes every day until the smoker is down to being dispensed one cigarette per day, and at that point, needs to make that crucial decision to quit completely. By then, his/her body should no longer need the nicotine anymore, and the decision should be very easy to make.
  • the time interval between cigarettes is calculated by dividing the number of hours the smoker is a wake by the number of cigarettes smoked per day (prior to following the smoking schedule provided by the device). There is no need for a smoker's smoking pattern to be tracked by a device prior to setting-up the device 2 for a smoking cessation program.
  • Table 1 sets out the time intervals between cigarettes and the smoking times for a smoker who is awake before 8 am, smokes approximately 16 cigarettes per day and is awake for approximately 16 hours per day and therefore smokes a cigarette on average every hour.
  • the time of day at which a cigarette is dispensed from the device is calculated by taking the time the smoker usually wakes up in the morning (8 am in this example) and adding the calculated time interval between cigarettes (1 hour the first day in this example). It is to be understood that a device according to the invention can be programmed to increase the time interval between cigarettes by more or less than 5 minutes.

Since all Line 2 text strings are no more than 8 characters long, no scrolling is required, and there is no need to store the string length or position.
  • Line 2 needs to flash a fixed text string, it is only ever displaying a fixed text string with no varying field. If it is required to flash a fixed text sting in line 2, this is done by alternating between displaying the text, and calls to a CLEAR_L2 subroutine every 0.5 seconds.

Abstract

L'invention porte sur un dispositif et sur un procédé pour aider les fumeurs à se passer de substances toxicomanogènes, telles que des cigarettes. Le dispositif est conçu pour procurer au fumeur un accès à un nombre déterminé de cigarettes par jour. Chaque jour, le dispositif réduit le nombre de fois où il s'ouvre pour distribuer des cigarettes ; diminuant efficacement le nombre de cigarettes auquel l'individu a accès jusqu'à ce qu'il soit complètement sevré. Des photographies numériques et des messages enregistrés de proches peuvent être compris en tant que partie du dispositif pour motiver les individus à demeurer sur la bonne voie. Ce produit est idéal pour une utilisation par des fumeurs qui aimeraient s'arrêter de fumer pour la première fois, ou pour des individus qui ont essayé de nombreuses fois de s'arrêter de fumer et n'y sont pas parvenus.
