Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the field of cigarettes, in particular to a smoking utensil. Background Art
[0002] Smoking is a habit of mankind with a long history. According to statistics, there are more than 1 billion smokers in the world, and China consumes more than 100 billion cigarettes a year. In addition to damaging the health of smokers themselves, cigarettes also produce open flames, ashes, and smoke because of the current way of smoking cigarettes. The open flames will cause fire hazards, the ashes affect the sanitation of the surrounding environment, and the smoke will damage the health of others around. The cigarettes produced by existing technology are used in a way that after the cigarette is lit, the user inhales or not, and the cigarette is always kept burning with an open flame until it is burned out. Most of a cigarette is burned and wasted before the smoker takes the next puff. During the smoking process, the smoker holds a burning cigarette in his hand. In addition to the inconvenience of the smoker himself, it will cause great potential harm to the safety and sanitation of the surrounding environment. Therefore, many countries have expressly stipulated that smoking is not allowed in public places. The burning of cigarettes will produce a lot of gases that are harmful to the human body. The cigarette butt or filter mouthpiece at the back of the cigarette is generally made of polypropylene filaments to filter the smoke after the tobacco is burned. Since cigarettes are used once and due to cost issues, the materials and filtering methods used for cigarette butts are relatively simple and can only slightly filter the harmful components in the tobacco leaves, with poor filtering effect.

[0012] See also Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 The embodiment of the present invention comprises: an environmentally friendly tobacco pipe, wherein a cigarette (15) is built into a tobacco rod (14), the tobacco rod (14) and the tobacco pipe box (1) are integrated into one body, when smoking, a tobacco shred separator (2) first separates part of the tobacco shreds of the cigarette (15) and sends it to a cigarette lighter (3), the cigarette lighter (3) ignites the tobacco shreds, and the smoke generated by the burning tobacco shreds is sucked out through a cigarette holder (11), the burning process of the tobacco shreds is completed inside the tobacco pipe box (1) and the time is short, thus solving the problem of open flames; after the tobacco shreds are burned, the ash enters an ash container (18), thus solving the ash problem, since only the separated shreds are burned each time, Part of the tobacco shreds and the cigarette (15) itself do not participate in the combustion, thus solving the problem of excess smoke generated during intermittent smoking; the smoke generated by the burning of the tobacco shreds is initially filtered through the cigarette butts and then filtered for a second time through the smoke filtering device (21), so that harmful components such as nicotine and tobacco oil in the smoke are further purified; a circuit control board (8) is arranged in the environmentally friendly tobacco pipe, and the tobacco shreds separation, ignition time, etc. are automatically completed by the circuit control board according to a set control program; the circuit control board can be set with a mobile phone APP application, and information such as the single cigarette lighting amount and the number of smoking times of the environmentally friendly tobacco pipe is controlled and displayed through the mobile phone APP intelligent software.
[0013] The implementation scheme of the embodiment of the present invention is: an environmentally friendly pipe, a cigarette (15) is built into a cigarette rod (14), the cigarette rod (14) and the pipe box (1) are combined to form a pipe with a relatively closed internal space, when smoking, the built-in circuit control board (8) controls the tobacco separator (2) to work according to the set program, separates part of the tobacco of the cigarette (15), and then sends the separated tobacco to the cigarette lighter (3) and ignites the tobacco, the smoke generated by the burning of the tobacco is filtered by the smoke filter device (21) and then sucked out from the cigarette holder (11), when the separated tobacco is burned, the preset program controls the ash channel valve (5) to open so that the ash enters the ash container (18), when smoking again, the cycle is repeated once, and the above cycle process only ignites part of the separated tobacco each time, and the cigarette (15) itself does not participate in the combustion. The control program of the circuit control board (8) is pre-set or set in a mobile phone APP application, and is set through the mobile phone APP intelligent control software.
[0014] The specific implementation method of the embodiment of the present invention is as follows: a cigarette rod (14) of a size capable of housing a cigarette is provided, a compression spring (12) and an ejector pin (13) are installed at the bottom of the cigarette rod (14), a guide groove is provided in the internal space of the cigarette rod (14) so that the ejector pin (13) can only move axially but not rotate radially, a smoke filter device (21) is installed in the rear space of the cigarette rod (14), a cigarette holder (11) is arranged behind the smoke filter device (21), the cigarette rod (14) and the pipe box (1) are combined to form a pipe with a relatively closed internal space, and a tobacco separator (2), a cigarette lighter (3), an air intake check valve (4), an ash channel valve (5), and an ash collection container are installed in sequence along the axial position of the front end of the cigarette (15) inside the pipe box (1). (18), the tobacco separator (2) is linked with the motor gear (16) and the motor (6) to be controlled by the circuit control board (8), the cigarette lighter (3) is controlled to start and set the working time by the circuit control board (8), a temperature control sensor (19) is installed on the side of the cigarette lighter (3), and the temperature control sensor (19) is connected to the circuit control board (8). When the cigarette lighter (3) works too frequently and the temperature of the pipe box (1) exceeds the set value, the circuit control board (8) disconnects the circuit of the cigarette lighter (3) to stop working, and the air inlet passage of the air inlet check valve (4) is connected to the air inlet port (17) of the pipe box (1). The air inlet check valve (4) is normally closed to prevent the ash in the pipe box (1) from leaking out. When the cigarette lighter (3) is opened through the cigarette holder (11), the air inlet passage (17) of the pipe box (1) is closed. When smoking, an air negative pressure is generated inside the pipe box (1), and the negative pressure causes the air intake check valve (4) to open automatically, and the outside air enters the cigarette lighter (3), thereby assisting the burning of the tobacco in the cigarette lighter (3). The ash channel valve (5) is a solenoid valve structure controlled by the circuit control board (8), and is normally closed so that the ash in the ash receiving box (18) does not flow back out. When the tobacco in the cigarette lighter (3) is completely burned, the circuit control board (8) controls the solenoid valve of the ash channel valve (5) to open the valve, and the ash falls into the ash receiving box (18) by gravity, and then the valve of the ash channel valve (5) is closed again by the built-in spring. A battery (9) is installed inside the pipe box (1) to provide power to the circuit control board (8), the motor (6), etc. The charging socket (10) is used to charge the battery (9). The start button (7) is installed on the outside of the pipe box (1) to trigger the circuit control board (8) to start the preset control program. The control program of the circuit control board (8) can be set or configured in the circuit module by a mobile phone APP application program, and controlled by the mobile phone APP intelligent control software via wireless or Bluetooth signals.
[0015] The working principle and use method of the embodiment of the present invention are as follows: when in use, the tobacco rod (14) is first disassembled from the pipe box (1), the cigarette (15) is loaded into the tobacco rod (14), and then the tobacco rod (14) and the pipe box (1) are reassembled. The disassembly design of the tobacco rod (14) and the pipe box (1) is to facilitate the insertion of the cigarette (15) and the disposal of the cigarette butt after smoking a cigarette. The assembly method can be a card slot, a magnetic attraction, a shaft pin, etc. The tobacco separator (2) in this embodiment Figure 3The structure shown in the figure is the working mode of the rotating blade. Since a push pin (13) is arranged at the back of the cigarette (15), and a compression spring (12) is arranged at the back of the push pin (13), the cigarette (15) always has a force to move in the direction of the tobacco separator (2) and contact the rotating blade. The function of the push pin (13) is to press part of the push pin tip into the filter sponge at the back of the cigarette (15) by the pressure of the spring (12) to connect with the cigarette (15) as a whole, so that the cigarette (15) can only move axially like the push pin (13) and will not rotate with the tobacco separator (2). The rotating blade is used to cut and separate the tobacco from the cigarette (15). The amount of tobacco separated each time is determined by The working time of the motor (6) is set. Assuming that the motor can cut 0.1 grams of tobacco when it rotates for one second, 0.2 grams can be cut for two seconds, and so on. The cut tobacco falls downward to the cigarette lighter (3) by the axial thrust generated by the installation angle of the rotating blade and the gravity of the tobacco itself. The cigarette lighter (3) is made of high-temperature resistant materials such as ceramics. The space inside the cigarette lighter (3) is equipped with a heating wire for igniting the tobacco. The length of the ignition time is set by the control circuit board according to needs. The operation of the heating wire of the cigarette lighter (3) and the combustion of the tobacco will generate local high temperature inside the pipe box (1), so the parts directly in contact with the cigarette lighter (3) need to be made of metal materials to facilitate heat storage and heat dissipation. The pipe box (1) is provided with heat dissipation holes (20) around the cigarette lighter (3) for external heat dissipation. Since the electric heating wire works for a short time each time, the amount of tobacco burned each time is small, the heat generated each time is not much, and smoking is an intermittent behavior, it is feasible for tobacco to burn briefly inside the pipe box (1). If the cigarette lighter (3) works too frequently, causing the temperature of the pipe box (1) to exceed the range of the set value of the temperature control sensor (19), the circuit control board (8) presets a program to disconnect the working circuit of the cigarette lighter (3) to play a protective role, and resume the cigarette lighter (3) when the temperature returns to normal. The one-way air intake valve (4) is made of metal material and installed together with the cigarette lighter (3). First, it provides an air passage when the tobacco burns, second, it acts as a heat sink, and third, it closes the air intake port (17) at ordinary times to prevent the internal ash from leaking out. The one-way air intake (4) and the cigarette lighter (3) can be combined in design in actual application. The ash channel valve (5) is installed in conjunction with the cigarette lighter (3) and is also made of metal material. It is usually in a normally closed state. When the valve is closed, it plays a role of supporting the bottom of the tobacco combustion chamber of the cigarette lighter (3) to prevent the tobacco cut by the tobacco separator (2) from falling into the ash collection container (18) before it is burned. When the tobacco is burned once, the circuit control board (8) controls the electromagnetic valve attached to the ash channel valve (5) to open the valve by a preset program, so that the ash produced after the tobacco is burned falls into the ash collection container (18). The ash collection container (18) is movably matched with the pipe box (1) and can be a card slot, a card pin, a magnetic suction, etc., so that it is convenient to disassemble it and handle the collected ash.The start button (7) is used to trigger the control program preset in the circuit control board (8) to start the work. The control program of the circuit control board (8) is set as follows: the start button (7) → the motor (6) drives the tobacco separator (2) to work for 2 seconds → the cigarette lighter (3) to work for 3 seconds → the ash channel valve (5) opens after a delay of 5 seconds and closes after 1 second → a work process ends. The control time value is a theoretical assumption. In actual application, it should be set as needed according to the motor speed and the power of the solenoid valve. A sensor can also be set at the part that needs to be controlled, and the control program can be started according to the sensor detection signal. The circuit control program can be preset by the circuit control module or a mobile phone APP application can be set in the circuit control board (8) and controlled by the mobile phone APP intelligent software. The mobile phone APP intelligent software The control software can control the amount of tobacco separated each time by controlling the working time of the tobacco separator (2), and can indirectly control the amount of smoke produced by a single cigarette lighting; the number of cigarettes smoked per day can be counted by detecting the number of ignition operations of the cigarette lighter (3) through the circuit module; the number of cigarettes smoked per day can be counted by setting the circuit control board (8) to detect the number of times the pipe box (1) and the cigarette rod (14) are disassembled; the remaining amount of cigarettes (15) in the environmentally friendly pipe can be calculated by setting the circuit control (8) to detect the position of the ejector pin (13) in the cigarette rod (14); the working procedures such as the amount of cigarettes lit each time of the environmentally friendly pipe can be intelligently controlled by the mobile phone APP, and the working status information such as the number of cigarettes smoked per day, the remaining amount of cigarettes, and the remaining power of the environmentally friendly pipe can be displayed on the mobile phone, so that the environmentally friendly pipe has an intelligent control function. Under normal circumstances, the smoke filtering device (21) can use filter cotton, filter paper, activated carbon, nanoparticles and other materials. The filter material is used as a consumable material and needs to be cleaned or updated after a period of use. In this embodiment. Figure 2 The smoke filter device (21) is arranged at the outer shell edge of the cigarette rod (14) so as to be pulled out when it needs to be updated. In situations where the smoke purification requirement is high and the cost is not taken into account, the filter device can also be used in the form of fan centrifugal, negative ion, photocatalyst, etc., or multiple methods can be superimposed and applied. The present invention provides a solution for secondary filtration of smoke. The specific filter material and filter method can be selected according to the requirements of the filter level in different application scenarios and the implementation scheme of the filter device.
[0016] The above is a preferred embodiment of the present invention, and the specific implementation details can be selected in a variety of ways according to needs: the pipe box (1) and the cigarette rod (14) are combined into a pipe, which is a box-shaped shape in this embodiment. As long as it can contain cigarettes, the shape can be designed into various shapes according to needs; the tobacco separator (2) is used to separate the tobacco, and various mechanical devices such as sawtooth cutting can be used in the method; the cigarette lighter (3) is shown in the embodiment as an electric heating wire, and various devices such as electric arc, laser, etc. that can ignite the tobacco can also be used; the one-way air intake valve (4) is mainly used to prevent the internal ash from leaking out, If the product requirements are not high, the one-way valve can be omitted and replaced by a small-diameter air inlet hole. The ash channel valve (5) is a solenoid valve in the embodiment, and can also be driven by a micromotor or the like. The start button (7) is used to trigger the control program of the circuit, and can be a key type, a touch type, an induction type, etc. The circuit control board (8) is used to control the tobacco separator (2), the cigarette lighter (3), the ash channel valve (5), etc. to work according to a preset program. It is a relatively simple switch circuit that can be implemented by general automatic control professional engineers. In this embodiment, the one-way valve (5) is omitted. The circuit diagram is omitted. The circuit control program can be preset on the circuit module of the circuit control board (8) or controlled and displayed by setting a display screen on the surface of the environmentally friendly pipe shell. However, the product volume is not large and setting a display screen is not a preferred solution and will increase the cost. In the case of the popularization of smart phones, the use of mobile phone APP intelligent software control is a preferred implementation scheme. The intelligent control of electronic products through mobile phone APP is a relatively mature technology. For example, many electronic products such as fans, air conditioners, and rice cookers on the market have mobile phone APP intelligent control functions. General engineering and technical personnel in this profession can understand and implement this technology. The present invention only proposes a solution for intelligent control and omits the implementation details of mobile phone APP control. The installation positions of the tobacco separator (2), the cigarette lighter (3), the air intake check valve (4), the ash channel valve (5), and the ash collection container (18) are installed along the axial direction of the cigarette (15) for the convenience of illustration in this embodiment. In actual application, the position can be changed according to the shape of the pipe box (1); the heat dissipation hole (20) is used for heat dissipation. In occasions where the heat dissipation requirement is high, a micro-motor heat dissipation fan controlled by the circuit control board (8) can also be set to enhance the heat dissipation effect.
[0017] The above descriptions are merely embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the patent scope of the present invention. Any equivalent structure or equivalent process transformation made using the contents of the present invention specification and drawings, or directly or indirectly applied in other related technical fields, are also included in the patent protection scope of the present invention.
