- a capsule made of an airtight and water-proof material makes it possible to protect the primary chemical material against the humidity of the air and that contained in the tobacco of the cigarette.
- this choice of combustible material for the capsule makes it easier to ignite the tobacco in the case where the smoker wishes to use a conventional means of ignition such as a match, a lighter or another cigarette.
- Using such a receptacle allows the secondary chemical material to be carefully deposited on the primary chemical material, to avoid drowning it and to inhibit the autoignition reaction, or at least to slow it down that it can not generate sufficient thermal energy to light the cigarette.
- the choice of the material of the capsule and the design of the receptacle act synergistically to ensure effective ignition of cigarettes, even after a relatively long aging time.

- the capsule may have a frustoconical shape, the widest portion of said capsule being situated on the side of the end to be ignited of the cigarette,
- the capsule may comprise a portion configured to serve as a guide to the receptacle during the fitting of the latter on the end to be lit of the cigarette.
- This guide portion may also be used to provide the primary material with a shape more suitable for contacting the secondary material.
- the ignition can be more or less efficient. The best results are obtained when the contact is made on the surface of the primary material, or is limited to the first layers, more particularly when said primary material is potassium permanganate and the secondary material of the liquid glycerine.
- the primary chemical material is preferably predominantly potassium permanganate and the secondary chemical material consists mainly of glycerine,
- the sealed tank and the pointed tip may be in the form of a one-piece piece obtained by molding or may consist of two separate parts.

- a cigarette 1 is generally in the form of a cylinder formed of a sheet of paper 2 and inside which are disposed minced tobacco leaves 3. It has a diameter that can vary from 3 mm to 7 mm and a length that can vary from 60 mm to 100 mm. It has an end to ignite 4 and an inhalation end 5 opposite to said end to be ignited.
- the inhalation end 5 can include in particular a filter 6.
- the self-ignitable device object of the invention comprises a primary chemical material 7 (or material “to light”) and a secondary chemical material 8 (or “ignition” material). These two chemical materials are incompatible and generate sufficient thermal energy (for example from 150 ° C. to 700 ° C.), with or without a flame, to ignite the end 4 of the cigarette 1 when they come into contact with one of them. the other.
- the primary material pair 7 / secondary material 8 may be, for example, an oxidation / fuel pair of the potassium permanganate / glycol type; silver nitrate / red phosphorus; silver nitrate / sulfur; chlorates and boric acid / glycols; aluminum / iodine tincture; sodium metal or other metals of the same family / water or alcohol-terminated reactants; Raney nickel or phosphoric / oxidative materials (MnO2, chlorate); nitrocellulose / strong acids (sulfuric, chloridic); etc.
- a primary chemical material consisting mainly of potassium permanganate and a secondary chemical substance mainly consisting of glycerine.
- the term "predominantly” is used to mean that the percentage by weight of potassium permanganate, or of glycerin, respectively, relative to the total weight of the primary material 7 or of the secondary material 8, is greater than 50% by weight.
- / p my primary or secondary Tiere advantageously greater than 70% w / pmatière primary or secondary, preferably greater than 95% w / primary pmatière or secondaire- This torque this material also has the advantage of meeting sanitary standards and to eliminate any risk of toxicity.
- glycerin is a product commonly used as a food additive: it is in the form of a viscous liquid, transparent, colorless, odorless, nontoxic and sweet taste.
- potassium permanganate it is an inorganic salt commonly used as a disinfectant and as a deodorant. It is used in particular for the treatment of drinking water.
- the reaction between potassium permanganate and glycerin is a surface chemical reaction. That is, the kinetics of reaction is directly proportional to the size of the contact zone between the solid (potassium permanganate) and the liquid (glycerin). It is preferable to use potassium permanganate in relatively fine powder form.
- the chemical reaction initiated by a primary chemical material consisting mainly of potassium permanganate and a secondary chemical substance consisting mainly of glycerine, is not instantaneous, a small incubation period of a few seconds being necessary, without leading to user to estimate that the cigarette 1 did not light up.
- the reaction is announced by a prior release of non-toxic smoke consisting only of carbon dioxide and water vapor.
- the reaction is not too intense, the effect being similar to that caused by the flame of a lighter or a match.
- the end 4 of the cigarette is sufficiently lit to allow time for the smoker to carry the cigarette to his lips and begin to suck tobacco smoke assuring that it will not suck the smoke from the incompatibility reaction. This state of affairs secures the self-ignition of the cigarette 1 and reassures the user.
- these two chemical materials are sufficiently stable to ensure a sufficient duration of use over time.
- Additional substances may be used to dilute, bind, bind, activate or otherwise slow down or passivate the incompatible basic chemical materials used in the invention.
- sodium thiosulfate with permanganate there has been a substantial improvement in the reactivity of permanganate with glycerine and a good reproductivity of ignition times.
- Other substances may furthermore make it possible to reinforce the resistance of the primary material 7 and the secondary material 8 to ambient conditions, in particular moisture (for example water-repellent substances).
- the primary chemical material 7 is placed in a capsule 70 intended to be fixed at the end of the cigarette lighter 1 to ignite 4.
- the capsule 70 may be positioned flush with the end to ignite 4 (FIGS. 6a to 6g), or slightly recessed (FIG. 6h).
- the capsule 70 may be covered with tobacco fibers, to a depth of a few millimeters, so that the end to ignite 4 has a similar appearance to that of a classic cigarette.
- the capsule 70 contains between 0. 1 mg to 5 mg of potassium permanganate.
- the capsule 70 is predominantly made of nitrocellulose, that is to say that the percentage by weight of nitrocellulose relative to the total weight of the capsule (not filled with primary material 7) is greater than 50% by weight, preferably greater than 50% by weight. 70% w / w C a P soot, preferably greater than 95% w / w C to P soot.
- the capsule is formed by a nitrocellulose sheet, for example Nitrofilm® or celluloid. Nitrocellulose has many advantages:
- this material is airtight and water-proof which makes it possible to protect the primary chemical substance 7 against the humidity of the air and that contained in the tobacco of the cigarette 1;
- the burning time is very fast, less than 1 or 2 seconds. The smoker is therefore unlikely to suck the products of combustion since the capsule 70 had plenty of time to burn before he took the cigarette to his mouth,
- the desired shape of the capsule 70 is easy.
- the choice of this material also has the advantage of facilitating the industrial manufacture of cigarettes object of the invention: on the one hand, the capsules 70 may be previously made and loaded in primary chemical material 7 according to an industrial process easily automated, and on the other hand, the introduction of the capsules 70 at the end 4 of the cigarettes 1 is a purely mechanical operation that can also be easily automated, which is important for tobacco companies.
- nitrocellulose materials having properties similar to those of nitrocellulose, and suitable to those skilled in the art, can be used, for example silk pongee, or biodegradable pongee.
- a primary chemical material consisting mainly of potassium permanganate 7 is in contact with a secondary chemical substance consisting mainly of glycerine, the mixture heats rapidly, possibly without flame, to a temperature of several hundred degrees. This thermal energy is then transmitted to nitrocellulose, whose autoignition temperature is between 150 ° C and 200 ° C. This "activation" material ignites as soon as this autoignition temperature is reached.
- the end to ignite 4 of the cigarette 1 may be previously impregnated with a nitrocellulose collodion before depositing the capsule 70.
- Such an impregnation is particularly advantageous for: improving the reliability of the transmission to the tobacco fibers of the flame generated by the reaction of the two incompatible materials 7.8, and increase the holding in position of the capsule 70 on the end 4 to ignite.
- the pre-impregnation material may be in the form of a gel-adhesive which, once dried, ensures the adhesion of the capsule 70 containing the chemical material the capsule 70 can also be glued on the end 4 with gum arabic, food glue, or any other product suitable for a person skilled in the art.

- the reservoir 81 comprises a pointed tip 82 whose rigidity is sufficient to pierce the capsule 70 and through which the secondary chemical material 8 can flow.
- the tip 82 preferably has a shape similar to that of the hypodermic syringe needles. This form is particularly well adapted to the piercing of the cap 70 by pressure along the axis of the cigarette 1, with or without a rotational movement to facilitate piercing.
- the wall of the capsule 70 advantageously comprises a puncture zone 71 ( Figures 6a to 6h) to be pierced by the tip 82 of the reservoir 80 ( Figures 7a to 8b).
- This puncture zone 71 is advantageously in the form of a thinner and / or less resistant lid than the rest of the wall of the capsule 70.
- the lid 71 can also be made of a material of the plastic food film type or aluminum, moisture-proof.
- the adhesion of such a film on the outer wall (or inner) of the capsule 70 is provided by a suitable bonding, also waterproof.
- the receptacle 80 is initially disposed at one end of the cigarette, in an arrangement preventing contact of the secondary material 8 with the primary material 7.
- the removable receptacle 80 is then positioned at the end to be ignited. 4, in an arrangement for contacting the secondary material 8 with the primary material 7. Referring to the embodiment of FIGS.
- the receptacle 80 comprises a fastening zone 1 1 arranged around the pointed end-piece 82 and configured to engage on the end to be ignited 4 so that said pointed endpiece is pressed into the capsule 70.
- This attachment zone 1 1 is in the form of a cylindrical portion which is opposite to the closed end 12 of the tube forming the receptacle 80.
- the attachment zone 1 1 is open from in order to allow it to fit onto the end to be ignited 4.
- the attachment zone 1 1 has an internal diameter equal to or greater than (for example from 0.1 mm to 1 mm), to the external diameter of the cigarette 1, and a length may vary from 3 mm to 10 mm.

- the receptacle 80 is initially fitted on the inhalation end 5 (FIG. 7a).
- the user wishes to light his cigarette, he disengages the receptacle 80 from the inhalation end 5 and connects it to the end to be lit 4 so that the pointed tip 82 pierces the capsule 70 (FIG. 7b).
- the receptacle 80 comprises a first attachment zone 11 arranged around the pointed end-piece 82 and configured to slide onto the end to be lit 4 of so that said pointed tip is pressed into the capsule 70.
- This first attachment area 1 1 a is identical to the attachment area 1 1 defined above. It can be provided with a closure cap, which plug protects the pointed tip 82 and prevents the tank 81 from emptying due to an unwelcome pressure on the walls of the receptacle 80.
- the receptacle 80 comprises a second attachment zone 1 1b, opposite the first zone 1 1 a.
- This second attachment zone 1 1b is open so as to allow it to fit onto the end to be ignited 4 or to the inhalation end 5, so that the pointed end-piece 82 is remote from the capsule 70.
- the second zone of fixation 1 1 ba an inner diameter equal to or greater (for example from 0.1 mm to 1 mm), the outer diameter of the cigarette 1, and a length that can vary from 3 mm to 10 mm.
- the second attachment zone 11b is initially fitted on the end to ignite 4 or on the inhalation end 5 (FIG. 8a).
- the user wishes to light his cigarette, he disengages the receptacle 80 and engages the first attachment area 1 1a on the end to ignite 4 so that the pointed tip 82 pierces the capsule 70 ( Figure 8b).
- the receptacle 80 is devoid of attachment area.
- the receptacle 80 does not come to grip the end 4, but comes directly pierce the capsule 70.
- This configuration provides a better visibility of the piercing operation of the capsule 70.
- said piercing point can be identified by an appropriate marking 73.
- the latter is for example in the form of a cross, a point or a target made in the center of the visible part of the capsule 70 when the latter is arranged flush with the end 4 to ignite, or made on a pellet 74 disposed at said end to light when said capsule is covered with tobacco (Figure 6h). ).
- the receptacle 80 When the receptacle 80 is initially arranged at the inhalation end 5 ( Figure 9a), it is advantageous to keep the diameter of the cigarette 1 over the entire length, especially not to force tobacco companies to change the size of their package. To do this, the receptacle 80 is held in the extension of the cigarette 1 by means of a detachable adhesive tab 13, a dotted cut (for example, by exerting a traction-rotation movement on the receptacle) or by any other similar means of attachment.
- the adhesive tongue 13 may for example be partially coated with an adhesive of the type similar to that found on POST-IT®.
- the entire receptacle 80 must be generally flexible so that the distribution of the secondary material 8 is effortless, the first time, in a single pressure on said receptacle.
- the tip 82 is meanwhile more rigid, which is not contradictory with the objective of overall flexibility of the receptacle 80 and is very easily achievable industrially.
- the material preferentially used for producing the receptacle 80 and the reservoir 81 is flexible polyethylene because of its good compatibility with liquids and its flexibility which it retains durably over time.
- biodegradable and / or bio-fragmentable materials to meet the concern of a minimum pollution of the environment, such as paper or cardboard preferentially plasticized, an aliphatic polymer such as polycaprolactone and polytetramethylene succinate, a copolyester a polyesteramide or a vinyl polymer, a polysaccharide type biopolymer or a hydrocarbon elastomer such as natural rubber.
- the flexible material is chosen so that a pressure on the wall of the receptacle 80 causes the secondary chemical material 8 to leave the pointed tip 82.
- the reservoir 81 is of elongated shape
- the user can empty by exerting pressure (or pinching) on its side walls.
- the tank 81 is of compacted shape
- the user can empty it by pressing it in the axis of the cigarette.
- the receptacle 80 and / or the reservoir 81 may be made of a rigid material, said reservoir being provided with a piston whose movement causes the secondary chemical material 8 to be discharged by the pointed tip 82 ( in the manner of a syringe).
- the choice of a receptacle 80 made of a transparent material allows the user to see that it pierces the fragile zone 71. Of course, this operation can be done blindly, the user knowing that the capsule 70 is pierced when the end 4 of the cigarette 1 abuts against the filling material 83.
- the reservoir 81 may have a bellows (or accordion) shape, allowing its emptying by axial pressure.
- the constituent materials of the receptacle 80 and the filling material 83 are in this case sufficiently flexible to allow this axial pressure.
- the tip 82 may be made of the same flexible material as the reservoir 81 (in which case it is its conformation that makes it more rigid) or in a more rigid material, such as a thermosetting polymer.
- the sealed reservoir 81 and the pointed tip 82 are advantageously in the form of a one-piece piece obtained by molding.
- a separate nozzle 82 made of a more rigid material.
- the filler material 83 may be foam or a material similar to that used for cigarette filters. However, it is preferred to use a biodegradable material and / or bio-fragmentable to meet the concern for minimal pollution of the environment, such as a vegetable felt.
- the capsule 70 may have the shape of a cylindrical pellet totally integrated in the end to be ignited 4.
- the fitting of the receptacle 80 at the end 4 of the cigarette 1 can lead to unacceptable deformations of said cigarette. This is because the end of the cigarette 1 is not rigorously cylindrical. The greater the diameter of the receptacle 80 is close to that of the cigarette 1, the more difficult the fitting. It therefore seems important that the cylindrical character of the end 4 of the cigarette 1 is guaranteed.
- the capsule 70 preferably comprises a portion 72 configured to serve as a guide to the receptacle 80 when it fits onto the end to ignite 4. The capsule 70 can thus play the role of a shaper of the end 4 of the cigarette so that it remains well cylindrical.
- the guiding portion 72 consists of a flange whose diameter corresponds to that of the end 4, which collar is covered by the paper sheet 2. Its height is a few millimeters.
- the collar is oriented towards the inhalation end 5 and in Figure 6g, it is oriented in the other direction.
- Figures 1 to 4 illustrate how a smoker can light his cigarette with simple gestures, whether he holds the cigarette in one hand or the door not yet lit to his mouth.
- the user takes hold of the receptacle 80 (FIG. 1) and positions it opposite the end to be ignited 4 so that the pointed tip 82 pierces the capsule 70 (FIG. 2).
- the user can contact the secondary material 8 with the primary material 7 by pressing the receptacle 80 between his fingers ( Figure 3) and that said secondary material flows through the pointed end 82.
- the user removes the receptacle 80 from the end to ignite 4 ( Figure 4). The reaction is initiated and the end to ignite 4 ignites.
