Description
- This application claims the benefit of U.S. Provisional Application No. 63/111,060, filed Nov. 8, 2020, under 35 U.S.C. 119 and incorporates this application herein by reference.
- The present invention relates to novel collection and storage devices with one or multiple accessory cavities and one or multiple collection cavity apparatuses that are capable of collecting organic and non-organic materials while storing various accessories directly on the body of the collection and storage device. More particularly, the present invention relates to a collection and storage device that specializes in the storage of accessories and the collection or disposal of items that are not limited to ash and other organic or non-organic disposables while cleaning and holding other accessories on the body of the collection and storage device.
- Ash trays, generally built in the basic flat design, have been around for a long period of time and have performed well in the market of the smoking industry. Traditionally, an ash tray consists of a flat bowl shaped cup that allows the user to dispose of the ash that is created as a byproduct of the user smoking their water pipe, tobacco or any other organic substance filled cigar. After they have finished partaking in the activity, they are encouraged to place what is left of the smoking remanence into the flat ash tray, but due to the minimal height of the perimeter wall this would give a lit cigar that is resting in the flat bowl shaped ash tray the opportunity to be blown into the wind and potentially become a fire hazard.
- As mentioned prior the flat bowl shaped cup allows the user to place their finished smoking remanence into open ash tray but this allows the smell to dissipate around the room as well as being a fire hazard. By having such a wide open design there is nothing that is stopping the inflow of oxygen to the cigar or other disposable substances that are attempting to be extinguished. This increased flow of oxygen prolongs the smell dissipation while lengthening time it takes for a cigar filled with tobacco or other organic substance to be extinguished.
- In the past, ash trays have only had one use case with that generally being a wide bowl in place for users to push their finished cigars and unwanted ash remains into. There are currently ash trays on the market that elect to use a slim and long metal shaft that goes perpendicularly through the center plane of the ash tray allowing the user to poke a hole in their accessories. The problem with this use case is that the accessory is not cleaned very well and the ash that comes out of the accessories is then collected down in the flat ash tray that we mentioned earlier susceptible to fire and extended dissipation of the remanence smell.
- We want to solve the problem and minimize the amount of space that products take up on the user's area of interest at once whether it is but not limited to their desk, table, store counter or any other suitable surface. Prior to our invention, there has not been an item on the market that allows the user to hold and store their organic or non-organic accessories directly on the body of their collection and storage device or disposal item of the like while being capable of cleaning necessary accessories.
- With that being said, there is a need in the market for a collection and storage device that is able to hold users accessories on the body of the device while supporting a collection cavity device that is able to dissipate the smell and minimize the amount of oxygen that reaches the lit cigarette bud.
- The present invention comprises a novel collection and storage device generally consisting of one or multiple collection cavities that are adjustable for depth and height which are used for the collection of but not limited to ash and other organic or non-organic disposables of the like. The collection cavity device is generally but not always encompassed by other cavities that are adjustable for depth and height in order to hold the user's accessories directly on the body of the collection and storage device. These accessories may include but are not limited to lighters, rolling papers, canisters, jars, bags, dab sticks, dabbers, rigs, cigar splitters, hemp wax, cigarillos, trays, pipes, water pipes, water bongs, and torches.
- The collection and storage device can be created in many different adjustable sizes, shapes and materials including but not limited to ceramics, metals, glass, plastic, polymers, aluminum, carbon fiber, steel, fiberglass, acrylic or any other suitable material that is preferably fire retardant and strong enough to hold the necessary material and accessories. Interchangeable sizes of collection and accessory cavities may be placed around the perimeter and area of the collection and storage device in order to enable the holding of different adjustable sizes of accessories around the device. The collection and storage device comprises of a collection cavity that is placed under the bowl and other accessory cleaning spike that is held up on cigar resting pillars, which in this embodiment of the present invention allows the cleaning spike to poke and clean the user's accessories then have the unwanted ash or other organic or non-organic material fall into the wide perimeter funnel that is capable of dropping the material into the collection cavity below. When the collection device has been filled to a point that can be seen through the protruding collection cavity window, that is adjustable for depth, height and shape, the user is able to disconnect the top section of the device from the bottom base section of the device by but not limited to a form-fitting connection or screw thread in order to dispose of the remanence of ash or other organic or non-organic materials of the like.
- The cleaning spike mentioned prior is an object with a point at the top that is adjustable for depth, shape and size. The tip of this point can be equipped with but not limited to a needle tip, brush tip, plastic or polymer tip, or any other metal brush tips. The cigar resting pillars of the present embodiment of this invention are placed on the inside slope of the inner downward slopping funnel in order to hold the cigar of the user as it is set to extinguish while resting on the collection and storage device. The explained pillars are adjustable by size, placement and shape being able to be placed at different distances apart from either pillar creating a cavity for different sizes of cigars the user may choose to have. The cleaning spike and cigar resting pillars alike are both in the center of the wide funnel top section of the collection and storage device but are not limited to this placement.
