Smoking device

Abstract

A device for smoking a combustible material including a chamber having a hollow interior being supported by a housing, wherein a container is structured to retain a combustible material in an exposed position relative to an ignition device structured to selectively ignite the combustible material. A path of fluid flow is at least partially disposed on the housing in fluid communication with both the chamber interior and the container. A pressure regulator is movably connected to the chamber and is operative to establish a negative pressure within the chamber and along the path of fluid flow, concurrent to the ignition of and smoke generation from the material. The negative pressure is sufficient to direct the generated smoke from the container, along the path of fluid flow into the chamber. An access opening in the chamber facilitates inhalation of the generated smoke by a user.

Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0001]1. Field of the Invention[0002]The present invention is directed to a smoking device for combustible material including a chamber, in which generated smoke is collected at least initially under the influence of a negative pressure created within the chamber. A container retains the combustible material in an exposed relation to an ignition device. A path of fluid flow between the chamber and the container communicates the negative pressure therebetween and facilitates passage of the generated smoke from the combustible material into the interior of the chamber.[0003]2. Description of the Related Art[0004]One known method for regulating the pressure within a smoking device provides a smoking device comprised of a bottle with the bottom cut away and an adapter removably attached to the mouth of the bottle. By raising the bottle relative to a water filled reservoir, air is drawn through the adapter and fills the bottle with smoke. Lowering the bottle pu...

AI Technical Summary

Benefits of technology

The present invention is a smoking device that allows smoke to be generated and pass through a path of fluid flow into a chamber where it is collected for inhalation. The device includes a pressure regulator that controls the pressure in the chamber and creates a negative pressure within it to facilitate the passage of smoke. The device is designed to be easily mounted and cleaned, extending its lifespan.

Problems solved by technology

The ignition device defines a heat source, which when manually actuated, generates a flame or other heat source which ignites the combustible material resulting in the generation of smoke.
