Description
DISPOSITIVO DE CORTE DE CIGARRILLOS CIGARETTE CUTTING DEVICE
Descripción La presente invención consiste en un dispositivo mediante el cual se puede cortar la zona incandescente de los cigarrillos a mitad consumir y así ser guardados para una utilización posterior, de modo que se vea desprovisto de restos de ceniza que destruyen el aroma en caso de un nuevo encendido evitando el mal sabor que la zona quemada produce al quedarse en el propio cigarrillo, según otras formas de apagado. El corte se produce mediante una cuchilla, y comprende también medios para expulsar el extremo cortado al exterior. Description The present invention consists of a device by which the incandescent zone of cigarettes can be cut in half to be consumed and thus be stored for later use, so that it is devoid of ash debris that destroys the aroma in case of a new ignition avoiding the bad taste that the burned area produces when staying in the own cigarette, according to other forms of extinguished. The cut is produced by a blade, and also comprises means for expelling the cut end to the outside.
Estado de la Técnica La normativa actual impide que se pueda fumar en lugares públicos cerrados o centros de trabajo, lo cual hace que los fumadores busquen cualquier momento para encender un cigarrillo y dar a éste unas chupadas. Debido a que el tiempo del que disponen suele ser reducido, ya que se aprovechan pequeñas pausas de otras actividades, apenas se consume una pequeña parte del cigarrillo. Puesto que el precio de los cigarrillos es elevado, los fumadores tienden a apagar el cigarrillo para una reutilización posterior del sobrante. State of the Art Current regulations prevent smoking in closed public places or work centers, which makes smokers look for any time to light a cigarette and give it a few puffs. Because the time they have is usually reduced, since small breaks are taken from other activities, only a small part of the cigarette is consumed. Since the price of cigarettes is high, smokers tend to put out the cigarette for later reuse of the leftover.
Por otra parte, en los últimos tiempos el tabaco se ha encarecido considerablemente. Uno de los efectos es el incremento de tabaco de liar, en tanto que tiene una combustión más lenta, y suele resultar algo más barato. En cualquier caso, el elevado coste hace que los fumadores eviten tirar los cigarrillos que no están totalmente consumidos, por lo que las porciones restantes son guardadas hasta que el fumador tenga una nueva oportunidad de fumar. Lógicamente, guardar la porción del cigarrillo no consumido conlleva la necesidad implícita de apagarlo y eliminar la parte consumida. Tanto en el caso del cigarrillo convencional como el liado de modo artesanal, hay distintas formas de conseguirlo; según una forma tradicional, se restriega el extremo encendido sobre una pared de modo que la zona en ignición es desprendida. Se producen tres consecuencias; una primera es que se ensucia dicha pared, y eso no es aceptable; puede realizarse contra el suelo, pero ello obliga a agacharse; la segunda, que además, el cigarrillo se destroza de una manera significativa, lo que supone la pérdida de parte de ese
cigarrillo lo que redunda en un menor aprovechamiento del mismo; la tercera, que además el cigarrillo utilizado no es fácil de guardar salvo que se utilice una pitillera, o un paquete rígido, y debido a sus menores dimensiones es más difícil de sacar que los cigarrillos enteros. On the other hand, in recent times, tobacco has become more expensive. One of the effects is the increase in rolling tobacco, while it has a slower combustion, and is usually somewhat cheaper. In any case, the high cost makes smokers avoid throwing away cigarettes that are not fully consumed, so the remaining portions are stored until the smoker has a new opportunity to smoke. Logically, saving the portion of the unconsumed cigarette entails the implicit need to turn it off and eliminate the consumed part. Both in the case of conventional and hand-rolled cigarettes, there are different ways to achieve it; according to a traditional way, the lit end is restricted on a wall so that the ignition zone is detached. There are three consequences; a first is that said wall gets dirty, and that is not acceptable; it can be done against the ground, but it forces you to bend down; the second, that in addition, the cigarette is destroyed in a significant way, which means the loss of part of that cigarette which results in less use of it; the third, that in addition the used cigarette is not easy to store unless a cigarette case, or a rigid package is used, and due to its smaller dimensions it is more difficult to take out than whole cigarettes.
Otra forma también extendida es la del apagado por eliminación del oxígeno circundante; a tal efecto es conocido un tubillo ciego en el cual se introduce la parte en ignición del cigarrillo y que aisla la zona de combustión de la entrada de aire, por lo que se produce el apagado. Uno de los problemas que tiene este sistema es el que al permanecer la zona apagada en contacto con la zona todavía sin quemar genera un sabor poco agradable que altera el sabor natural del tabaco en su primera combustión. Another also extended form is that of shutdown by elimination of surrounding oxygen; To this end, a blind tube is known in which the ignition part of the cigarette is introduced and which isolates the combustion zone from the air inlet, whereby the shutdown occurs. One of the problems that this system has is that when the area remains off in contact with the area still not burned, it generates an unpleasant taste that alters the natural flavor of tobacco in its first combustion.
Es, por tanto, deseable y un objeto de esta invención, cortar la zona en combustión de un cigarrillo separándola por completo de la parte del cigarrillo todavía por quemar, optimizando el consumo del cigarrillo y manteniendo, en la medida de lo posible, el sabor del cigarrillo original; es también deseable y un objeto de esta invención proporcionar un alojamiento para el cigarrillo a mitad consumir, para un aprovechamiento posterior. También es deseable tener un lugar de almacenamiento de la colilla que evite que sea tirada en cualquier lugar, cuando no hay un receptáculo adecuado, tal como un cenicero, dado que las colillas ensucian y no son fácilmente degradables en el ambiente. It is therefore desirable and an object of this invention, to cut the burning area of a cigarette by completely separating it from the part of the cigarette still to be burned, optimizing the consumption of the cigarette and maintaining, as far as possible, the taste of the original cigarette; It is also desirable and an object of this invention to provide a housing for the half-consumed cigarette, for later use. It is also desirable to have a butt storage place that prevents it from being thrown anywhere, when there is no suitable receptacle, such as an ashtray, since the butts get dirty and are not easily degradable in the environment.

La invención tiene por objeto un dispositivo de corte de cigarrillos que permite el corte de la parte encendida de un cigarrillo a mitad consumir, para su aprovechamiento posterior, que comprende un cuerpo (1) provisto de al menos un alojamiento (8) para la inserción de un cigarrillo (5), en el que el cuerpo (1) comprende además un medio de accionamiento, normalmente un pulsador (2), de un mecanismo de corte consistente en una cuchilla (13) que mediante su corte separa la parte encendida (6) del cigarrillo (5). El alojamiento (8) tiene preferentemente forma de tubo en el cual se inserta el cigarrillo (5). La sección de dicho tubo es suficiente para que pueda discurrir por su interior un cigarrillo (5) convencional. Así, si un cigarrillo tiene habitualmente una sección de 7-8 mm, la sección del tubo será normalmente 2-3 mm mayor, es decir aprox. 9-11 mm, para facilitar un deslizamiento fácil y sin trabas. The object of the invention is a cigarette cutting device that allows cutting the lit part of a half-consumed cigarette, for later use, comprising a body (1) provided with at least one housing (8) for insertion of a cigarette (5), in which the body (1) further comprises an actuation means, usually a push button (2), of a cutting mechanism consisting of a blade (13) which by cutting it separates the lit part ( 6) of the cigarette (5). The housing (8) preferably has a tube shape in which the cigarette (5) is inserted. The section of said tube is sufficient for a conventional cigarette (5) to flow inside. Thus, if a cigarette usually has a section of 7-8 mm, the section of the tube will normally be 2-3 mm larger, ie approx. 9-11 mm, to facilitate easy and unhindered sliding.
En concreto, el cuerpo (1) tiene una forma esencialmente prismática, según una opción preferida, preferentemente con ángulos redondeados, y su longitud total en la dirección del alojamiento (8) es preferiblemente la de un cigarrillo convencional entero, es decir, 80-85 mm. No obstante, puede ser mayor, si se desea utilizar como medio de almacenamiento de cigarrillos, o menor si tan solo se desea utilizar como dispositivo de corte. Specifically, the body (1) has an essentially prismatic shape, according to a preferred option, preferably with rounded angles, and its total length in the direction of the housing (8) is preferably that of a whole conventional cigarette, that is, 80- 85 mm However, it may be higher, if it is desired to be used as a storage medium for cigarettes, or smaller if it is only desired to use as a cutting device.
El cuerpo (1) comprende, a continuación del alojamiento (8), una cámara de alojamiento (7) de la parte encendida (6) del cigarrillo (5); esta cámara de alojamiento (7) puede tener también sección tubular al igual que dicho alojamiento (8).
Una de las esquinas del cuerpo (1) tiene un rebaje para un pulsador (2). El pulsador está solidariamente unido a una cuchilla de corte (13); al accionar el pulsador y mover la cuchilla de corte (13), dicha cuchilla se desplaza a lo largo de una ranura interior (14) que constituye un dispositivo de guiado. The body (1) comprises, following the housing (8), a housing chamber (7) of the lit part (6) of the cigarette (5); This housing chamber (7) can also have a tubular section just like said housing (8). One of the corners of the body (1) has a recess for a button (2). The button is integral to a cutting blade (13); when the button is operated and the cutting blade (13) is moved, said blade moves along an inner groove (14) that constitutes a guiding device.
El cigarrillo (5) se introduce en el alojamiento (8) a través de una abertura (1 1) dispuesta en uno de los lados menores del cuerpo (1), con su zona incandescente hacia dentro; colocando el dispositivo de corte en posición vertical, con la abertura (11) hacia arriba, el cigarrillo encendido cae hasta que la parte encendida (6) apoya en un obturador frontal (15). Así, el extremo anterior estará situado en la cámara de alojamiento (7), mientras que la mayor parte del cigarrillo quedará en el alojamiento (8). En esa posición, o en tanto que el cuerpo (1) no se incline lo suficiente como para que el cigarrillo pueda volver a desplazarse hacia afuera, se procede al accionamiento del mecanismo de maniobra, normalmente el pulsador (2), de modo que con éste se desplaza también la cuchilla (13) solidaria a dicho pulsador, o con un movimiento vinculado a éste, a lo largo de la ranura interior (14) produciendo el corte del extremo anterior del cigarrillo (5) introducido en la cámara (8). The cigarette (5) is introduced into the housing (8) through an opening (1 1) arranged on one of the smaller sides of the body (1), with its incandescent area inward; placing the cutting device in an upright position, with the opening (11) facing up, the lit cigarette falls until the lit part (6) rests on a front shutter (15). Thus, the anterior end will be located in the housing chamber (7), while most of the cigarette will remain in the housing (8). In that position, or as long as the body (1) does not tilt enough so that the cigarette can move back out, the maneuvering mechanism is operated, normally the button (2), so that with this also moves the blade (13) integral with said push button, or with a movement linked to it, along the inner groove (14) causing the cutting of the front end of the cigarette (5) inserted in the chamber (8) .
El cuerpo (1) está provisto anteriormente, frente a la cámara de alojamiento (7) de una primera ventana (16), normalmente tapada por el obturador frontal (15). El pulsador (2) está también vinculado al desplazamiento del obturador frontal (15). El obturador frontal (15) tiene continuidad en una segunda ventana (3) más próxima al extremo de pulsación del pulsador (2); en reposo dicha segunda ventana (3) no tiene efecto alguno, pero cuando se realiza la pulsación, al tiempo que se realiza el corte del cigarrillo (5), dicha ventana (3) se alinea con la primera ventana (16), y mientras está cerrado el alojamiento (8) por la obturación por medio de la cuchilla de corte (13), queda abierta la cámara de alojamiento (7), permitiendo la evacuación de la parte encendida (6) del cigarrillo (5). El pulsador comprende un medio elástico, normalmente un muelle (10) para su retorno a la posición de reposo, y con él la retracción de la cuchilla y del obturador frontal (15), que cubrirá nuevamente la primera ventana (16). The body (1) is provided above, in front of the housing chamber (7) of a first window (16), normally covered by the front shutter (15). The button (2) is also linked to the movement of the front shutter (15). The front shutter (15) has continuity in a second window (3) closer to the push end of the push button (2); at rest said second window (3) has no effect, but when the pulse is performed, while cutting the cigarette (5), said window (3) is aligned with the first window (16), and while The housing (8) is closed by the sealing by means of the cutting blade (13), the housing chamber (7) is open, allowing the burning of the lit part (6) of the cigarette (5). The button comprises an elastic means, usually a spring (10) for its return to the rest position, and with it the retraction of the blade and the front shutter (15), which will again cover the first window (16).
Como el obturador frontal (15) está dispuesto de preferencia interiormente a la envoltura del cuerpo (1), se ha previsto una ranura (17) a través de la cual puede emerger durante el proceso de corte.
Está previsto que la parte posterior tenga una tapa, de modo que junto a la cámara (8) se disponga un alojamiento adicional (12), por ejemplo para almacenamiento de cigarrillos. Este alojamiento adicional así como la abertura (11) del alojamiento (8) pueden estar provistos de una tapa de cierre practicable (no representada). As the front shutter (15) is preferably arranged internally to the body wrap (1), a groove (17) is provided through which it can emerge during the cutting process. It is provided that the rear part has a cover, so that an additional housing (12) is arranged next to the chamber (8), for example for storing cigarettes. This additional housing as well as the opening (11) of the housing (8) may be provided with a practicable closure cover (not shown).
El dispositivo de la invención puede ir combinado con elementos adicionales, tales como un encendedor integrado en el cuerpo (1). The device of the invention can be combined with additional elements, such as a lighter integrated in the body (1).
Aún cuando se ha previsto que sea un pulsador el mecanismo de accionamiento de la cuchilla de corte, éste podría también consistir en una palanca o mecanismo de giro que actuase sobre la cuchilla o sobre el obturador frontal (15). Even if the actuator of the cutting blade is intended to be a push-button, it could also consist of a lever or turning mechanism that acts on the blade or on the front shutter (15).
Los alojamientos descritos, en especial el alojamiento adicional, no quedan limitados dimensionalmente puesto que su capacidad puede variar para alojar 2, 4, 6, 8 cigarrillos, lo que lógicamente implicará también que el dispositivo en si mismo sea dimensionalmente mayor o menor sin que ello afecte a su función primordial que es el corte del cigarrillo y el alojamiento de la porción restante. The described accommodations, especially the additional accommodation, are not limited dimensionally since their capacity may vary to accommodate 2, 4, 6, 8 cigarettes, which logically will also imply that the device itself is dimensionally larger or smaller without it affect its primary function is the cut of the cigarette and the accommodation of the remaining portion.
Técnicamente, es importante señalar que el alojamiento adicional (12) es susceptible de comprender al al menos un tabique divisorio, conformando alojamientos o cavidades separados, al menos uno de los cuales es dimensionalmente menor y resulta apto para contener cenizas y/o colillas. En su caso, estos alojamientos o cavidades adicionales están provistos de su correspondiente tapa de cierre practicable. Technically, it is important to note that the additional housing (12) is capable of comprising at least one dividing partition, forming separate housings or cavities, at least one of which is dimensionally smaller and is suitable for containing ashes and / or cigarette butts. Where appropriate, these additional housings or cavities are provided with their corresponding practicable closure lid.
Igualmente es preciso señalar que el dispositivo de corte de cigarrillos que se reivindica comprende, vinculado a cualquier punto de su perímetro, de al menos un medio de sujeción o enganche que facilite su portabilidad y/o manipulación por parte del usuario, siendo posible, por ejemplo, sujetarlo a una cajetilla de cigarrillos, a un cinturón o simplemente ubicarlo en un punto fijo de un bolso o cartera. Estos medios de sujeción o enganche son, preferentemente, una pinza, un llavero, una prolongación a modo de gancho o una porción de velero, sin desestimar cualquier otro que resulte funcional puesto que la conformación de dicho medio de sujeción no es significativa para la propia resolución técnica del dispositivo. It should also be noted that the claimed cigarette cutting device comprises, linked to any point of its perimeter, at least one means of attachment or attachment that facilitates its portability and / or manipulation by the user, being possible, by For example, attach it to a pack of cigarettes, a belt or simply place it in a fixed point of a purse or purse. These fastening or coupling means are preferably a clamp, a key ring, a hook-like extension or a sailboat portion, without underestimating any other that is functional since the conformation of said fastening means is not significant to the own technical resolution of the device.
