Effect test

example 1

[0026]A number of tests with various commercially available cigarettes were conducted using a prototype of the following dimensions:

Overall Length—5½ inches

Length from base to throat—4.938 inches

Diameter of mouth—0.32 inches

Diameter of throat—0.305 inches

Diameter of base—0.33 inches

[0027]Commercially available cigarettes used for testing included Du Maurer (filter), Player's, Export, Craven A (filter) and Benson Hedges slims, It was found that each of these brand name cigarettes passed smoothly and snugly past the throat and were held snugly by the throat even if not inserted entirely into the chamber of the holder-ashtray. If the cigarettes were pushed all the way past the throat, the cigarettes fell freely into the interior of the chamber. When the cigarette was inserted partially into the holder-ashtray and held by the designed throttles it can be withdrawn easily. Moreover, when the holder-ashtray was inverted with a cigarette contained in the chamber, the cigarette did not fall...

example 2

[0028]Using a holder-ashtray as described in example 1, a lighted EXPORT A cigarette was inserted all the way into the chamber of the holder-ashtray. The holder-ashtray was then dropped on a carpet. Neither the lighted cigarette, hot sparks or hot ashes came out of the holder-ashtray.

Abstract

A novel, portable cigarette holder, extinguisher ashtray, which is capable of fitting into the pocket, purse or handbag of a smoker.
The holder-ashtray has been designed with a special throat consisting of three precision placed throttles that firmly holds the inserted cigarette by compressing the sides of the lighted cigarette, causing the lighted cigarette to be extinguished and held without damage for relighting.
The holder-ashtray has restricted internal throat throttles which press the sides of a lighted cigarette butt inserted into the holder-ashtray and smothers the cigarette. The entrance to the holder-ashtray is flared to enhance entry of the lighted end of the cigarette into the holder-ashtray. The interior of the holder-ashtray is gradually flared away from the throat to encourage the cigarette butt to drop into the interior of the holder-ashtray once the cigarette has been inserted past the throttles in the throat. When inverted, the holder-ashtray retains the cigarette butt against the bottom of the throttles which acts as a stopper and prevents ashes from falling out.
The holder ashtray is designed to hold standard manufactured cigarettes as well as an adaptor that will allow the holder ashtray to accommodate various diameter size slim cigarettes.

Description

[0001]This invention is directed to a novel portable standard cigarette saver, extinguisher, ashtray and an littering device which is capable of adapting to accommodate slim manufactured cigarettes and will conveniently fit into the pockets, purse or handbag of a smoker.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0002]A continuing problem which faces cigarette smokers is that ashtrays for disposal of ashes from a lighted cigarette and disposal of cigarette butts after the smoker is finished smoking the cigarette are no longer readily available. This is a particular problem indoors where because of public and health authorities' pressure to discourage smoking as many households and public places do not have ashtrays. Thus, those smokers who encounter such situations, or persist in smoking, or cannot overcome their addiction to cigarettes; face a continuing problem in disposing of their ashes and cigarette butts without littering.[0003]Another problem is that lighted cigarettes represent a continuing...
