The lid in the present invention includes lid elements which pivot open and closed about a horizontal axis.
' An ashtray incorporating the present invention includes a lower receptacle with upstanding substantially cylindrical walls. It also includes an upper substantially cylindrical body portion, which is open at both its upper and lower ends, and which has a depending sleeve that at least in'part laps over the walls of the receptacle beneath. It has one, and preferably a plurality of lid elements, each of which comprises a plate that is carried on a generally horizontal shaft supported in the upper body sleeve. Each lid element pivots on its shaft from a horizontal closed position which holds the ash,
et al., to a tilted position which permits the ash to drop into the receptacle beneath. In a preferred embodiment, there are two lid elements and both are carried on a common shaft. If the cylindrical body of the ashtray is a circular cylinder, each of the two lid elements is semicircular in shape.
A lid element support device is carried by the lower receptacle and contacts the lid elements to support them such that when the receptacle and body are snugly together, the lid elements are closed. When the body is drawn away from the receptacle beneath, the depending sleeve and thelid element support shafts carried by the sleeve move away from the receptacle beneath. However, the lid element support device carried by the receptacle remains stationary, whereby the lid elements pivot fromtheir closed toward their open position. I
One of the receptacle or the upper body sleeve is provided with at least one stud and the other of these elements is provided with a corresponding number of notches, each for receiving a respective one of the studs. By this means, the upper body and receptacle are that they would not normally sepwhich opens at that end of the lower receptacle or upper body sleeve which faces toward the other of those elements. Through rotation of the upper body withrespect to the receptacle, each stud can be moved through its notch either to disengage or to reengage the upper body and the receptacle. The upper body and receptacle beneath are periodically separated to permit cleaning of the ashtray.
Each notch is adaptedto provide a clearance space for its stud, whereby the upper body can shift toward and away from the-receptacle beneath without interferthereby determines how' much the lid elements can be opened. I 7
Accordingly, it is the primary object of the present invention to provide an improved mechanical ashtray.
It is another object of the present invention to provide such an ashtray which employs a simply pivoted ashtray lid arrangement.
These and other objects of the present invention will become apparent from the following description of the accompanying drawings, in which:
FIG. 1 is a vertical cross-sectional view along the line 22 of FIG. 1 through the ashtray of the invention when the ashtray is in a closed condition;
FIG. 2 is a side elevation view in the direction of arrows 2 of the ashtray in FIG. 1, partially broken away to show some of the ashtray elements;
FIG. 3 is the same type of view as FIG. tray in an open condition; and
' FIG. 4 is a top view of the ashtray of FIG. 1.
The ashtray in accordance with the invention includes lower receptacle 7. Receptacle 7 is closed at its base 21 to contain ashes, stubs and other refuse. Beneath base 21 is a layer 8 of protective material, e.g. felt, to prevent the ashtray from scratching any surface upon which it is placed. The walls 22 of lower recep'tacle 7 define a circular cylinder, whereby the ashtray is circularly cylindrical.
Passing through the upper recessed portions 23 of walls 22 are a pair of outwardly extending, diametrically opposedly positioned studs 6 for interengaging with notches 9 to be described.
Sleeve 1, formed of plastic material or the like, depends from the perimeter of upper body 5, overlaps recessed portions 23 of receptacle walls 22 and has a diameter such that sleeve 1 fits into the perimetrical recess 23 of receptacle 7, thereby giving the exterior of the ashtray a smooth external appearance of uniform outside diameter, as suggested in FIG. 2. The overlapping by sleeve 1 would be precluded by projecting studs 6. However, sleeve 1 is provided with correspondingly diametrically opposedly positioned generally T-shaped notches 9, through each of which pass one of studs 6. Notches 9 do not pass completely through the sleeve as 1 with the ashthis would mar the appearance of the exterior of the cle, so that studs 6 pass out through the respective oblique portions 25 of notches 9.
The respective vertical legs 27 of notches 9 define the extent to which body 5 may shift vertically with respect to receptacle 7 when these two elements are interconnected with each other, thereby defining the limits of movement of the ashtray lid elements 2 to be described.
Sleeve 1 also includes diametrically opposed openings 31 into which lid element support shaft 3 is fitted, whereby vertical shifting of body 5 and sleeve 1 with respect to receptacle 7 correspondingly vertically shifts shaft 3.
Semicircular ashtray lid elements 2 fill and close the opening in body 5 and are freelypivotable with and are carried by shaft 3. Under the influence of gravity, elements 2 will normally shift from a generally horizontal position (FIG. 1) to a downwardly tilted position (FIG. 3). Ashtray lid elements 2 are maintained in a closed position, illustrated as being substantially horizontal and substantially in sealing engagement with the overhanging shelf elements 28 of body 5, by means of upstanding projections on ashtray lid support element 4, which element is carried by receptacle 7. The height of projections 10 is selected such that with body 5 at the lowermost position permitted by the shape of vertical leg 27 of notch 9 and the near interengagement of stud 6 with upper end 30 of the vertical leg, projections 10 cause lid elements 2 to be substantially horizontal.
It is apparent from the foregoing that the normally closed lid elements 2 of FIG. 1 hold ashes, stubs, et a1. Upon raising of body 5, lid elements 2 pivot as in FIG. 3 and cause the ashes and stubs to fall off the lid elements into the receptacle.
Although the invention hasbeen described with respect to its preferred embodiments, it will be understood that many variations and modifications will be obvious to those skilled in the art. It is preferred,therefore, that the scope of the invention be limited not by the specific disclosure herein but only by the appended claims.
