  • FIG. 1 A is a side view illustration of an exemplary shareable mouthpiece system for social smoking.
  • Fig. IB is a view showing a front and perspective side view of one possible version of a coupling element.
  • FIG. 1C is an illustration showing a joined exemplary crown and tip.
  • Fig. 2A is an illustration showing a coupler of segmented arcs around an outline of an exemplary tip or crown.
  • Fig. 2B is an illustration showing a ring of coupler “dots” around an outline of an exemplary tip or crown.
  • Fig. 3 A is a top view of an exemplary tip with a flatted mouth side profile.
  • Fig. 3B is a side view of the exemplary tip of Fig. 3 A, showing a narrowed profile of the mouth side.
  • Fig. 3C is top view of the exemplary tip joined to an exemplary crown.
  • Fig. 4 is an illustration of a filter disposed between the crown and tip.
  • Fig. 1 A is a side view illustration 100 of an exemplary shareable mouthpiece system for social smoking.
  • the exemplary system is comprised of two separable pieces that join together to form a single piece.
  • the separable pieces are a hollow crown 110 and a hollow tip 120.
  • Crown 110 has a “cigarette” side 113 and an opposite tip side 117.
  • Tip 120 has a crown side 123 and a mouth side 127.
  • Crown 110 operates to hold the smoked item (cigarette, cigar, marijuana, joint, etc.) which is inserted or held by cigarette side 113. Therefore, the size of the inside hollow of side 113 of crown 110 will be approximately that of the circumference of cigarette or sized appropriately for the to-be- smoked element.
  • Tip 120 functions similar to a cigarette holder mouthpiece (as in the conventional arts as seen in Raw or Roor products, for example), where mouth side 127 is for placement of the user’s mouth.
  • the size of the inside hollow of side 127 of the tip 120 can be any size suitable for smoking and may be oblong, rectangular or other-shaped, according to design preference. While the crown 110 and tip 120 appear in this Fig. as matching cylindrical devices, it is understood that this is not a requirement, as these elements need only provide a passage for both fitment of the “cigarette” and movement of the resulting vapors. However, for simplicity sake and aesthetic purposes, the crown and tip are shown in this Fig. as similarly shaped.
  • optional creases 118 in the crown 110 and optional creases 128 in the tip 120 are illustrated here, as these creases are sometimes found in commercial non-exemplary tips. Their purpose may be for filtering, aesthetics, easy gripping or for other uses, but are shown here as optional elements.
  • a conventional non-exemplary tip it can be modified so a coupling element 125 is mounted to side 123 of tip 120.
  • a conventional non- exemplary tip can be modified to operate as an exemplary crown via the mounting of coupling element 115 to side 117 of crown 110. Therefore, the respective coupling elements 115, 125 can be coupled together to cause both crown 110 and tip 120 to form a single smoking piece.
  • tip’s coupling element 125 can be a magnetic element or the like, which is complemented with the crown’s coupling element 115, which can be a metal element or the like.
  • the crown 110 will connect and stay affixed to the tip 120, due to the magnetic forces between the coupling element.
  • the tip’s coupling element 125 can be a metal element or the like and the crown’s tip side 117 can contain the magnetic element or the like.
  • the polar opposite magnet type may be used for the respective connecting elements.
  • one side may have a N-pole magnet
  • the other side may have a S-pole magnet.
  • the coupling force of the magnet can be gauged to be sufficient to allow the crown 110 and tip 120 to be joined together and stay together under normal handling, and also allow a user to disconnect the tip 120 from the crown 110 without requiring extraordinary force.
  • the magnet(s) or metal element can be affixed or held in place by adhesive, pressure or heat impressed, etc. and etc. into the respective sides. It is understood that the coupling elements in this or other embodiments should not significantly interfere with the passage of vapors through the exemplary device, or make it unduly difficult to inhale through the exemplary device. Therefore, their size, shape and arrangement about the respective tip and crown should be taken into consideration.
  • Fig. IB is a view showing a front and perspective side view of one possible version of a coupling element 5 which has an annular or ring-like shape.
  • Two magnetically attracted “rings,” when the respective crown and tip are joined, will be in proximity or in contact with each other to provide the desired connection forces.
  • Having an annular magnet ensures there are no lesser forces at a different perimeter portions of the crown or tip, which would subject the connection to be vulnerable to a lateral disjoining force. This is believed to be an optimal arrangement for maximizing coupling forces around the contact surfaces between the crown and tip.
  • Fig. 1C is an illustration showing a joined crown 110 and tip 120, where crown coupler 115 is mated to tip coupler 125.
  • the couplers 115, 125 are shown as external to the body of the respective crown 110 and tip 120. That is, the couplers 115, 125 are not disposed inside the circumference of the respective crown 110 and tip 120.
  • FIG. 2A and 2B show examples of other coupler configurations.
  • Fig. 2A’s embodiment 140 shows segmented arcs 145 around an outline 135 of a tip or crown’s hollow profile.
  • Fig. 2B’s embodiment 150 shows a ring of “dots” around an outline 135 of a tip or crown’s hollow profile.
  • a side of the tip or crown could have a smaller diameter than the opposite crown or tip, to allow one side to fit “into” the other side.
  • Appropriate arrangement of an outer/inner magnet/metal could be easily made.
  • Figs. 3 A-C show alternate sizing and shapes for the tip.
  • Fig. 3 A is a top view of an exemplary tip 320, having a flatted profile- much akin to the tips of traditional use.
  • the flattened “mouth-side” 327 profile enables easier gripping of tip by the mouth or teeth.
  • Coupler 325 is on the opposite side of the mouth side 327.
  • Optional crease 328 is shown.
  • Fig. 3B is a side view of the exemplary tip 320, showing the narrowed profile of the mouth side 327 of the tip 320, and optional creases 328 on the top and bottom surfaces. Coupler 325 is on the opposite side of the mouth side 327.
  • FIG. 3C is top view of the exemplary tip 320 joined to an exemplary crown 310, via couplers 315 and 325.
  • FIG. 4 is an illustration of a modification of the exemplary embodiments where a “filter” 450 is disposed between the tip 320 and crown 310.
  • the filter 450 is of a diameter to fit within the hollows of the tip 320 and crown 310.
  • the coupling between the pieces is accomplished through the filter 450, acting as a bridging member.
  • the bodies for the exemplary crown and tip may be manufactured from any desirable material, non-limiting examples being glass, silicone, wood, metal, rubber, plastic, Pyrex, PVC, ceramic, precious metals as well as composites of such.
  • the crown’s material may be different than the tip’s material.
  • the shapes shown for the exemplary embodiments are not the “only” shapes possible, as demonstrated by Fig. 3 A. It is imagined that fanciful-shaped tips and/or crowns may be devised. However, regardless of the shape or material of the respective embodiments, they should have a means for coupling, such as shown herein via the use of magnet(s)/metal.
  • the non-exemplary tips are commonly available (Raw brand, for example), some of which can have a diameter of approximately 12 mm and lengths of approximately 30 mm.
  • the diameter of the hollow in the crown and tip may be varied to accommodate cigars or conversely “slim” cigarettes, and so forth. Therefore, changes and modifications to the sizes or shapes of the crown and tip are understood to be within the knowledge of one of ordinary skill in the art and within the spirit and scope of this disclosure.
  • the separability of the crown from the tip enables the crown (containing the smoking material - lit or unlit) to be passed to other persons, and joining the crowned smoking material to the other person’s tips for their smoking enjoyment. Therefore, a smoking material can be shared with multiple persons without actual mouth contact on the smoking material. Further, the crown can be used to “hold” the smoking material, without physical contact of the “cigarette.”
