Embodiment Construction

[0027]FIG. 1 shows a hookah type water pipe 100 having an electrical heat source for generating smoke. The hookah type water pipe 100 may comprise a conventional hookah 10 which comprises a liquid chamber 12, a smoking chamber 14 for receiving a combustible substance such as tobacco 16 and for generating smoke (not shown) by subjecting the tobacco 16 to heat. As employed herein, the term “chamber” will be understood to encompass both an enclosed space for performing a specified function and also surrounding structure such as walls, floor, etc., as may be necessary to define and maintain structural integrity of the enclosed space.

[0028]In conventional hookahs, heat is generated by placing charcoal (not shown) above or within the smoking chamber 14. The charcoal may be contained in a partially open cage (not shown) which is placed on the tobacco 16 or otherwise in heat exposure relationship thereto. The charcoal is ignited. Heat from the burning charcoal is exposed to the tobacco 16. ...

Abstract

Electric heat for generating smoke from tobacco or the like in a hookah type smoking pipe. Electric heat is obtained from an electrically powered heating element which may be placed proximate the tobacco. The heating element may be contained within a housing which in turn may be placed above the smoking chamber of the hookah. The housing may have adjustably damped holes disposed to pass air over the heating element. Electrical circuitry serving the heating element may comprise a step down transformer and a voltage adjusting switch. The heating element may be integral with the hookah, may take the form of a separate component which is mountable over the smoking chamber of the hookah, or may comprise a free standing assembly which may be placed to stand adjacent to the hookah.

Description

FIELD OF THE INVENTION[0001]The present invention relates to water pipes for smoking combusted materials, of the type known as hookahs, and more particularly to an electric heating source for hookah type smoking pipes.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0002]Hookah water pipes have long been used in smoking using combusted materials such as tobacco. As traditionally practiced, a hookah provides a water receptacle having an inlet conduit and at least one and often several outlet conduits. Smoke enters the water receptacle through the inlet conduit and is distributed to individual smokers through the outlet conduits, which are typically connected to hoses. Smoke is generated in a bowl in which a combustible substance such as tobacco is placed. A heat source is placed over the tobacco. In traditional practice, ignited charcoal may be used as the heat source.[0003]Heating the tobacco generates smoke, which is drawn into the water receptacle through a supply conduit. The supply conduit is arrang...
