1i rra FRANCIS S. KINNEY, OF NEW BRIGHTON, ASSIGNOR TO THE KINNEY TO- BAUCO COMPANY, OF N EW YORK, N. Y.
SMOKE-FILTER FOR PIPES AND CIGARETil'ES.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 253,296, dated February '7, 1882.
Applicationled NovembcrQS, 18131. (No model.) i
To all whom fitmay concern Be it known-that I, FRANQIS S. KINNEY, a citizenl of the United States, residing in the city ofNew Brighton, county ofRichmond, and
State of New York, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Smoke-Filters for Pipes, Cigars, Cigarettes, 85e., fully described and represented in-the following specification and the accompanying drawings, forming a 1o part of the same.
It is well known that the nicotine taken into the system in smoking tobacco is highly injurious to health, and pipes, cigars, cigarettes, &c., have from time to time been provided with devices intended to prevent the passage of this noxious oil into the mouth of the smoker; but the expedients adopted have,l however, in practice proved inetlicient and unsatisfactory. Among other ways, it has been attempted to zo rid the smoke of this injurious element bycausing it to pass through a loose plug or ball of raw cotton interposed between the tobacco and the mouth-piece of a cigarette, but this did not prove e'ective and satisfactory. The 2 5 cotton only detained a part of the nicotine, an'd it was also found that slight filaments were drawn into the mouth, to the great annoyance of the smoker.
It is the object of this invention to provide 3o a complete remedy for this evil; and to this end I have produced a smoke-lter for pipes, cigars, cigarettes, and the like smoking ai ticles, which primarily consists of some substance having chemical properties which cause it to take up, 3 5 neutralize, or destroy the nicotine, thus purifying the'smoke and rendering it innoxious and pleasant. There are various substances having qualities which adapt them to this use. Among the more effective ones for the purpose 4o are charcoal, tea, coffee, benzoic acid, arsenic ofsoda,lichen from Iceland, and balsam of tolu.
Others, however, having the properties stated,
and an additional one which gives perfume to the smoke, may be'used. These substances, either singly or in any approved combination, are by the useiot' a proper vehicle made into wafers, balls, or other shape suitable to the object sought. The filter thus made fis used in connection with a pipe, cigar, cigarette, or 5o like smoking article in such manner that the .smoke is caused to-pass through it, in which passage the nicotine is taken up, neutralized, or destroyed, and the smoke, it may be, perfumed. An appropriate and effective vehicle fer the various substances named is ordinary cotton or other similar filamentous material, though fine sponge or spongy material of any kind will serve the.purpose well, as will also, with some of the substances named, many ot' the gums, their use being to unite granulated particles of the substances into suitable shape in such manner as to permit the smoke to pass freely.
lt is to be remarked that cotton, when satu-` rated or treated with one or more of the substances named, willhaveits filaments so held that they7 will not readily detach and be drawn into the. m 011th ofthe smoker, while the chemical properties of the substance with which the cot` ton is treated will cause the filter thus constructed to act readily upon the nicotine and other alkaloids contained in the smoke, so that these injurious elements will be entirely eradicated and the smoke rendered pure and wholesome.
The accompanying drawings illustrate some of the various ways in which this invention may be applied to cigarettes, cigars, pipes, &c.
In said drawings, Figure lshows perspective views of two forms of filter. Figs. 2 and 3 show two dierent ways of applying the iilter to a cigarette having one of the glass, paper, or cork mouth-pieces in common use. shows another way of applying the filter to a cigarette, with a cork or wood mouth-piece. Figs. 5, 6, and 7 show ways of using the lter with different st vles of detachable mouthpieces, and Fig.8 shows how the iilterY may be used with a pipe. Fig. 9 shows how the iilter may be applied to the draft end of.' an ordinary cigarette or cigar. TheilterAmaybemadeofcottonorotherlike filamentous material, saturated with some one of the substances hereinbefore named, or with some substance having the same chemical properties. The saturation is well effected by finely powdering the substance and making it into a paste of proper consistency, then spreading the cotton in 'a very thin layer and soaking it in said paste, and finally rolling the cotton into 4proper shape for the filter. It', however, the
substance is granulated, as can be well done Fig. 4
IOO
` wini coffee, tea, and the nkmhe filter may be made of a proper quantity of thesubstance, molded, and retained in form by a suitable cement or gum. Both forms of filter are shown in Fig. 1. One of these filters is then interposed between the tobacco and the point where the smoke issues from the rnouthepiecaasinf` Figs. 2 to 6, where the cigarette or cigar is marked B and the holder C.
In Fig. 2 the filter is placed between the cigarette and the holder, and the whole secured to ether by the encircling band or strip a.
end of the mouth-piece andthe end of the cigarette, where it is secured in place by pasting 'the project-ing end Z1 of the wrapper onto the body of the mouthpiece.
Fig. 4 shows acork or wood mouth-piece, recessed at one end to form a chamber for the `reception of the filter, the partsbeing securedv in the manner shown in Fig. 2.
Fig. 5 shows a detachable mouth-piececom posed of a thin shell of glass or other material, into which the filter may be inserted.
Fig. 6 lshowsan ordinary cigar-holder provided with an elongated recess, so. as to provide a seat for the filter back of the cigar.
Fig. 7 shows a cigar or cigarette hold er made in two partsunited bya screw or friction-joint, a chamber being found for the tilter just back of this join-t. Y p Fig. 8 shows a pipe made so'as lto receive a filter, the stem being made with anenlarge.- ment, in which is `a cavity to receive theiilter.
The stem is divided throughth'e center bf the enlargement, and the parts held together by a screw-joint. can be inserted, and when untitibrifurtherfuse it can be removed. v
One of theseiilters maybe placed-at the draft f end of a cigarette or cigar and confined in placeby the wrapper, as is illustrated inFig. 9.
It is my intention to make these filters as aseparate anticle of manufacture, to be used in connection with pipes and detachable cigar and cigarette holders, as show n in Figs. 5, 6, 7, and
'ig. 3 shows the filter conned between the- By means'of this joint Ithe filterv the cigarette and forming' subtancel may give to the smoke a pleasant.
