J.' B. CALDWELL ET AL CIGARETTE EXTI-NGUISHER Filed Aug. 19, 1929 l/v VEN T0715 T/o /7/2 .5, Ca/dwe// QMJW HTTGRNEYS Patented Dec. 29, 1931 "HNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE 4 JOHN B. CALDWELL. AND OLIVER J. K ARS' D, F LOUIS, MISSOURI CIGARETTE EXTII N' GUISHIER Application filed August 19. 1929. Serial No. 386,857.
This invention relates to cigarette extinguishers, the objects of the invention being the provision of a device adapted to receive the lighted end of a cigarette and extinguish or snuff out said lighted end.
Other objects of the invention are to provide a simple device of the class described which is adapted to be used as an ash-tray.
Further objects of the invention are to provide suitable means for receiving the lighted end of a cigarette, said means being 1nanually operable to grip said lighted end and extinguish it. I
With these and other objects in view, our invention consists in certain novel features of construction and arrangement of parts, hereinafter more fully described and claimed, and illustrated in the accompanying drawings, in which Figure 1 is a side elevational view of our improved device.
Figure 2 is a top plan view of same.
Figure 3 is an enlarged vertical cross section taken longitudinally through said device.
Figure 4 is a similar View showing the parts in moved position.
As is well known cigarettes of practically all of the well-known brands will keep on burning and smoking when the unused portion of the cigarette is laid down. This is objectionable both on account of the smoke and the odor produced when the lighted cigarette is placed in an ash tray. The purpose of the present application is to provide a device which will readily extinguish the lighted cigarette and which may be used in conjunction with an ash tray.
Referring by numerals to the accompanying drawings, 10 indicates a container of any suitable shape and having a detachable wallmember 11 which, in the present instance, forms the bottom of the container. Member 10 is provided in one or more of its walls with an aperture 12 which is somewhat larger than the cross sectional area of a cigarette so that the burning end thereof can be conveniently inserted through said aperture into said container. A pair of jaws 14 and 15 is arranged in 'said container adjacent to said opening and connected as at 20 to the lower end of a lever aperture is not obstructed;
is adapted to grasp the burning end of the 21 which is fulcrumed at 22 and has its upper end operatively connected to a plunger 24. One end of this plunger extends outwardly from said container and terminates in a suitable button 25 bymeans of which the mechanism just described can be manually operated.
" A' coiled spring 26 is connected at one end to lever 21 near the upper end thereof and has its other end anchored to the container.
The purpose of this spring is to hold the mechanism in retracted position with the jaw 15 away from aw 14 so that the entrance of the burning end of the cigarette through the 76 A stop 27 is provided for engaging extension 17 and limiting the movement-of the mechanism under the tension of spring 26 so that the movable jaw 15 can move only a predetermined distance away from jaw 14. When the cigarette is inserted into the container, button 25 is pressed so as to bring .the mechanism in the position shown in Figure 4, whereby the burning end of the cigarette isclamped between the jaws with the 5 result that thehot ashes are released from the cigarette and drop into the container. When the finger is removed from button 25, spring 26 restores the mechanism and jaw 15 to normal open position.
As shown in the drawings, the removable member 11, which, in the present instance, forms the bottom of the container, is provided with a recessed portion or seat 28 which is adapted to engage a protuberance found on' certain types of ash-trays and used for receiving a match-box. By means of this recess our novel cigarette extinguisher can be attached to a majority of ash-trays now found on the market. However, the device can be attached to an ash-tray in any other suitable manner.
The top wall member 10 of container 10 is preferably formed with a central depression 29 so that said device can be used as an ashtray and said wall is further provided with radially disposed curved notches 30 forming restsfor cigarettes or cigars.
Our improved device is of simple con 10 struction and can be economically manufactured, and provides novel means for extinguishing cigarettes. V
While we have shown the preferred form of our invention, it is obvious that minor changes in the size, form and construction of the various parts can be made and substituted, without departing from the spirit of our invention.
We claim:
1 1. In a device of the class described, a
container having a closed, top provided with an aperture adapted :to receive the burning end of acigarette, a stationary jaw arranged in saidconta-iner to one side of said aperture, 5 5 a lever pivotally mounted in said container and having one end terminating in a jaw disposed on the other side of said aperture and movable against said stationary jaw for engaging and compressing the burning end of I a cigarette and discharging the ashes therefrom, a manually operable member s'lidably mounted in said container and extending therefrom, operative connections between said lever and said manually operable member for 3 3 actuating the former, and means'on said container or attachingthe latter in position.
2. In a device of the class described, the
combination of a container having a closed top provided with an aperture for receiving the burning end of a cigarette, cigaretteen- -gaging means arranged in said container for extinguishing the burning end of said cigarette, said means including a pair of 00- operating jaws, a manuallyoperable plunger '45 operatively associated with one of said jaws and extending outwardly from said container; and means on said container for detachably attaching the latter to an ash-may. I In testimonywhereof we hereunto :affix our signatures this 19 day of July, 1929.
