Application March 1, 1947, Serial No. 731,815
2 Claims.
This invention relates to improvements in cigarette holders.
The principal object of this invention is to provide a cigarette holder whereby a cigarette will have its ignited end held away from any surface upon which the holder may be resting.
' A further object is to produce a device of this character which will automatically turn the lighted end of the cigarette upwardly and away from the supporting surface.
A further object is to produce a device of this character which is neat in appearance, easy to manipulate, economical to manufacture and pleasing to the eye.
A still further object is to produce a device wherein the lighted cigarette will be automatically snuffed out if the user neglects to remove the burning cigarette therefrom.
Other objects and advantages will be apparent during the course of the following description.
In the accompanying drawings forming a part of this specification and in which like numerals are employed to designate like parts throughout the same,
Fig. 1 is a, side elevation of my holder.
Fig. 2 is a vertical cross sectional view therethrough, portions thereof being shown in elevation.
Fig. 3 is a perspective View of my holder with a cigarette therein.
Fig. 4 is an exploded perspective View of the counterweight and retainer, and
Fig. 5 is a bottom end elevation.
It is common practice for many persons to lay down a cigarette While it is still ignited, and oftentimes the cigarette will be laid upon the edge of a table and remain there having been forgotten by the smoker, with the result that the cigarette may start a fire there or drop upon the floor and start a fire.
Also, it is common practice to put the cigarettes in ashtrays while still burning, resulting in the ashtray becoming overheated and leaving marks upon the polished surfaces of the furniture. If the ashtray is of that character which snuis out the cigarette before it has been con sumed, then it has to be relighted, if it is to be completely smoked.
Applicant has, therefore, devised a holder wherein the cigarette may be placed and smoked therefrom, if desired, which holder will maintain the burning end of the cigarette in elevated position away from the supporting surface and when the cigarette has burned down to the retainer the same will be automatically snuied out through the chilling and pinching action of the retainer.
In the accompanying drawings wherein for the purpose of illustration is shown a preferred embodiment of my invention, the numeral 5 designates a cone shaped casing, the sides of which are preferably formed so as to provide flat surfaces 6.
The interior of this cone is hollow and has a bearing 1 and a threaded portion 8, which threaded portion serves to position a cap 9 in which is provided a bore Il in alignment with the bearing 1.
Referring now to Fig. 4, it will be noted that I have provided a counterweight l2, which has a pin I3 and a head I4 which is threaded to receive the threaded end of the retainer rod I6.
This rod carries a forked retainer I1, between the forks of which a cigarette may be positioned, as shown at A in Figs. 1 and 3.
When the parts are assembled, as shown in Fig. 1, and a'cigarette is placed within the retainer, the act of placing the cigarette therein, slightly presses the cigarette so as to form a friction load thereon.
When the device as a whole is placed upon a supporting surface, as for example a table, the counterweight 5 will hold the lighted end of the cigarette A elevated and away from the supporting surface.
By picking up the cone the cigarette may be readily smoked and put down again, with the assurance that the lighted end will always be held uppermost through the effect of the counter- Weight I2.
It will thus be seen that I have produced a device which will accomplish all of the objects above set forth.
It is to be understood that the form of my invention herewith shown and described is to be taken as a preferred example of the same and that various changes relative to the material, size, shape and arrangement of parts may be 3 resorted to without departing from the spirit of the invention or the scope of the subjoined claims.
Having thus described my invention, I claim:
1. A cigarette holder comprising a cone shaped hollow member, a cap therefor, and a counterweighted retainer rotatably supported in said cone, whereby a cigarette positioned in said retainer will be held in a substantially vertical position.
2. A cigarette holder, a cone shaped body portion having flat supporting surfaces, a cap secured to said cone, a counterweight `pivotallv mounted in said cone, a rod engaging said counterweight, and a retainer carried by said rod whereby `Wh'en"'a" ci'arette is positioned@ 'Sai'Q retainer saidf counterweight will-maintain @aid cigarette in a substantially vertical position.
