Abstract
An ashtray is mounted by mounting means for movement
between an orientation for use and a storage orientation.
The configuration of the ashtray is such that during the
movement from the usage to the storage orientation, ash
becomes contained in an ash containment space of the
ashtray.
Description
The subject invention relates to smokers' requisites.
According to a first aspect thereof the subject
invention provides a smokers' requisite assembly comprising
an ash receptacle and housing means, said receptacle and
said housing means being interrelated to provide for said
receptacle being in a storage condition within said housing
means or being in a condition of use, said receptacle and
said housing means being movable together between first and
second orientations of said receptacle, and the interior of
said receptacle being bounded by first and second wall
means, in the first orientation of said receptacle the first
wall means providing first side wall means and the second
wall means providing partial ceiling means extending from
said first side wall means, whereas in the second
orientation of said receptacle said first wall means is
floor means and said second wall means is second side wall
means, said floor means and said second side wall means
bounding an ash retaining space of said receptacle.
Preferably, the ash receptacle is movable relatively of
the housing means so that the receptacle can be moved, from
the position in said housing means, in a direction
outwardly of the housing means to the position of use of the
receptacle. The movement of the ash receptacle relatively
of the housing means is advantageously linear movement. An
alternative is for the receptacle to be swivelably movable
relatively of the housing means.
Suitably, the assembly further comprises arm means and
mounting means, the housing means being mounted of the arm
means and the mounting means mounting the arm means such
that in a first position of the arm means the ash receptacle
is in said first orientation thereof and in a second
position of the arm means the receptacle is in the said
second orientation thereof. The arm means can be an
armrest, which armrest can be associated with seat means.
The seat means may provide the mounting means. The seat
means may be vehicle seat means. An armrest providing the
arm means is preferably movable upwardly between the said
first and second positions.
The smokers' requisite assembly may be in association
with air extraction means, which air extraction means is
operable to draw air from the environment of the ash
receptacle when the receptacle is in the condition of use
thereof.
According to a second aspect thereof, the subject
invention provides a smokers' requisite assembly comprising
an ash receptacle and mounting means, said mounting means
mounting said receptacle such that said receptacle can be
moved between first and second orientations thereof, and the
interior of said receptacle being bounded by first and
second wall means, in the first orientation of said
receptacle the first wall means providing first side wall
means and the second wall means providing partial ceiling
means extending from said first side wall means, whereas in
the second orientation of said receptacle said first wall
means is floor means and said second wall means is second
side wall means, said floor means and said second side wall
means bounding an ash retaining space of said receptacle.
An assembly in accordance with the second aspect of the
subject invention may comprise housing means, which housing
means receives the ash receptacle when the receptacle is in
the second orientation thereof. Such housing means may be a
fixed housing means.
The mounting means of an assembly in accordance with
the second aspect of the subject invention may comprise
pivotally movable arm means, the ash receptacle being
mounted of the arm means.
In order that the subject invention may be clearly
understood and readily carried into effect reference will
now be made, by way of example, to the diagrammatic drawings
herewith, in which:
The seat of Figure 1, which is generally designated by
reference numeral 1, comprises a seat cushion 2, a backrest
3 and a pivotable armrest 4 located centrally of the seat 1.
A housing 5 is attached to the armrest 4 at the distal end
thereof.
The backrest 3 comprises a recess 6 appropriately
shaped and dimensioned for receiving the armrest 4 when the
armrest 4 is pivoted upwardly from the position of use (the
position thereof shown in Figure 1) to a stowed, upwardly
extending position. The armrest 4 in the stowed position
thereof is indicated in Figure 1 by broken line 4'.
Armrest 4 is pivotable about a pivot axis 7 by a
mechanism, known per se in the automobile industry, which
imparts a composite motion to the armrest 4 when it is moved
between the position of use thereof and the stowed position.
The mechanism thus provides not only a simple pivotable
movement about the axis 7, but also provides for movement of
the axis 7 such that when the armrest 4 is moved from the
stowed position, pivot axis 7 is raised, and when the
armrest 4 is moved to the stowed position the pivot axis 7
is lowered such that the armrest 4 is received in the recess
6 with the lower, proximal end of the armrest 4 in contact
with or immediately adjacent to the seat cushion 2.
An ash receptacle taking the form of an ashtray 8 is
longitudinally slidably received in the housing 5, whereby
the ashtray 8 may be wholly or substantially wholly received
in a stowed position in the housing 5, and may be pulled
outwardly of the housing to a position of use, which latter
position is depicted in Figure 1. When the ashtray 8 is in
the stowed position thereof, it is maintained in that
position by first retaining means (not shown), taking the
form, for example, of spring latch means or friction means,
so that when it is required to move the ashtray 8 to the
position of use thereof, it is first necessary to overcome
the retaining force of the first retaining means.
When the ashtray 8 is in the stowed position thereof
and the armrest 4 is in the position of use thereof, the
ashtray is in a first orientation thereof.
With reference to the enlarged view (Figure 2) of the
ashtray 8, the ashtray 8 comprises a base wall 9, an upper
wall 10, a rear end wall 11, a front end wall 12 and side
walls, one of which side walls, designated by reference
numeral 13, is shown in Figure 2. The ashtray 8 further
comprises a transverse ash deflector plate 14 which extends
downwardly from the inner end of upper wall 10.
In use of the ashtray 8, ash and/or other material is
deposited therein and thereafter rests on the base wall 9.
When the armrest 4 is to be moved from the position of use
thereof to the stowed position, the ashtray 8 is first slid
to a stowed condition thereof within housing 5. As the
armrest 4 is pivoted upwardly, the material within the
ashtray 8 slides under the influence of gravity and/or
vibration towards the front end wall 12 of the ashtray 8.
During such pivotal movement, the ashtray 8 is maintained in
the stowed position by the action of the aforementioned
retaining means. When the armrest 4 has been placed in the
stowed position, the ashtray 8 is located and orientated
(second orientation) as is indicated by broken lines 8'. In
this orientation, the walls 9, 10 and 12, together with the
deflector plate 14, provide an enclosed space or pocket in
which the ash and/or other material is contained.
Therefore, in raising the armrest 4 for stowing, the
material in the ashtray 8 is effectively contained therein,
i.e. is prevented from being dispersed therefrom.
By manipulation of second retaining means (not shown),
the ashtray 8 can be removed completely from the housing 5,
when the armrest is in the position of use thereof, thus to
facilitate removal from the ashtray 8 of material deposited
therein.
At the front of the housing 5, above but close to the
location of the ashtray 8, there is located an air inlet 15
taking the form of a grill. Reference numeral 16 designates
an air induction fan, which fan is drivable by electric
motor means (not shown). The air inlet grill 15 is in air
flow communication with the fan 16 via the hollow interior
of the housing 5, ducting 17 extending within and lengthwise
of the armrest 4, a flexible and extendible hose section 18
and a pipe 19. Reference numeral 20 designates the floor
wall of a luggage compartment or boot of the automobile
within which seat 1 is located. As may be observed from
Figure 1, a short exhaust pipe 21 extends from the fan 16
through the wall 20. Thus in operation of the fan 16, air
is drawn from the environment above and in the region of the
ashtray 8 and is expelled to the exterior of the automobile.
Advantageously, the moving of the ashtray 8 to the position
of use thereof, i.e. sliding the ashtray 8 forwardly of the
housing 15, activates a microswitch (not shown) which causes
activation of the fan 16. It may be also arranged that when
the ashtray 8 is moved to the stowed position within the
housing 15, timing means (not shown) is operable to ensure
that the fan 16 remains in a operative mode for a
predetermined short period of time, e.g. several minutes.
Air will then continue to be drawn in through the grill 15
and about the sides of the stowed ashtray 8. Guide means 22
disposed within the housing 5 for guiding movement of the
ashtray 8 is either of such width less than the width of the
housing 5 that passages exist to each side of the guide
means 22 for the passage of air to the fan 16, or, if the
guide means extends over the full width of the housing 5,
openings are provided in the guide means 22 for the passage
of air.
As may be observed from Figure 1, when the armrest 4 is
in the position of use thereof, the hose section 18 extends
through a slot 23 in that rear part of the backrest 3 which
bounds the recess 6 therein. The slot 23 is in alignment
with a slot 24 in the seat cushion 2. Thus when the armrest
4 is moved to the stowed position thereof, the hose section
18 is moved downwardly in the slot 23, and when the armrest
4 has been positioned in the stowed position, that portion
of the hose section 18 adjacent the lower end of the armrest
4 is located in the slot 24 of the seat cushion 2 (see
Figure 3). In this manner it is ensured that a sharp
bending and flattening of the hose section 18 in the
vicinity of the lower end of the armrest 4 is avoided and
thus that, even when the armrest 4 is in the stowed
position, full and effective air-flow communication between
the air inlet grill 15 and the air induction fan 16 is
possible.
In Figures 4a and 4b reference numeral 30 designates
the wall of a room. Fixedly attached to the wall 30 is a
bracket 31 and pivotally secured at the distal end of the
bracket 31 is an arm 32. Mounted on the arm 32 is an
ashtray 33 of the same configuration as ashtray 8 of Figure
2.
In Figure 4a the arm 32 and the ashtray 33 are
horizontally orientated and the ashtray 33 is in a condition
for use. In Figure 4b the arm 32 and the ashtray 33 are
shown in a vertical, storage condition.
As an alternative to the assembly shown in Figures 4a
and 4b, it may be arranged, by means of alternative mounting
means (not shown), for an ashtray as per ashtray 33 to be
moved, slidably for example, from a horizontal position of
use thereof to a vertical, storage position within a housing
which, unlike the housing 34, is fixedly secured to and
relatively of a vertical wall.
