Embodiment Construction

[0011]Referring now particularly to FIG. 1, a multi-component filter in accordance with the present invention is indicated generally by the reference numeral 10. A second or discharge section 12 of the filter has a perforate discharge end wall 14 and preferably takes a tubular or hollow cylindrical configuration. A roughly crumbled or rolled up sheet or sheets of scented paper 16 is shown adjacent the section 12 and is of course disposed within the section when the filter is in its assembled condition. Next in progression rightwardly and upwardly, a gasket 18 is optionally provided to prevent undue leakage of smoke outwardly between the filter sections 12 and 20. Filter section 20 has a reduced diameter end portion 22, which enters an adjacent end portion of filter section 12 during a telescopic assembly of the two sections. A pair of small spring clips 24,24 are provided on opposite sides of the reduced diameter end portion 22 and, when the sections 12 and 20 are assembled, the cli...

Abstract

A multi-component filter for tobacco smoke and the like comprises a mouthpiece section and two filter sections respectively containing conventional filtration material and scented filtration material in the form of porous scented paper adapted to disguise the odor of the smoke with a fresh clean odor. The sections are telescopically assembled with small spring clips co-operating with annular grooves for releasable connection of the same.
