Benefits of technology

The present invention provides a smoker's utility system with a case having at least two compartments that can hold a one-hitter bat, a poker / scooper device, and a separate removable grinder card. The case has at least one openable door at each end of the compartments, with one of the compartments having a full length lid. The utility system also includes a removable grinder card that can be inserted into the case to cover the compartments and a one-hitter smoking device that fits into one of the compartments. The system also contains a poker tool that can be used to clean the air passage of the one-hitter smoking device. The compact version of the invention includes a case with at least two compartments, each having a door and a grinder card that covers the compartment. The technical effects of this invention include improved smoking experiences with efficient and convenient use of a one-hitter bat, poker / scooper device, and grinder card.

Problems solved by technology

Having a convenient tool kit or device to store these devices, tools, and product is a problem that continues today, and has resulted in several limited solutions.
Each of these patents disclose certain products and devices with particular uses, but none provides a comprehensive solution for the overall objective and need to compactly, and securely hold tobacco product separate from a smoker's bat and poker, and having a grinder screen positioned directly above a compartment to store ground and cleaned tobacco.
Moreover, certain products are currently commercialized that have certain features that address one or two of the noted problems, but such products do not comprehensively solve the several objectives and issues presented.
Accordingly, while certain of the current designs and products appear to provide certain components and elements to address some of the noted problems, none is a comprehensive solution disclosing a compact smoker's utility tool system for used by the smoking public.

Abstract

A compact utility device, system, and method of use for and by smokers is disclosed. The compact utility device is configured to have at least two separate compartments formed in the case, and independent doors located at an end of the case to allow access to each of the separate compartments. The system further comprises certain tools including a removable grinder card, a “one-hitter” smoking tool, and a poker to clear the “one-hitter.” A separate full length door or opening is also included over the grinder card screen section to allow access to the grinder card, and when the grinder card is removed, access to the compartment holding the cleaned and ground tobacco. Further, the system may include separate, removable sub-compartments, for use to hold cleaned and ground tobacco or concentrates. The utility case may be manufactured from various thermoplastic materials including polycarbonate or polyvinyl chloride.

Description

BACKGROUND DISCUSSION OF THE INVENTION[0001]Smokers have rolled, prepared, and smoked tobacco, other herbs, and tobacco concentrates for centuries. While in many countries, especially in the United States, the manufacture of cigarettes is predominantly undertaken today by machines, many smokers find enjoyment and satisfaction with the individual hand preparation of their own smoking materials. Indeed, the use of “one-hitters,” or single smoke devices has developed a substantial user base.[0002]The use of such smoking products, including one-hitters, generally includes the one-hitter device, the tobacco, and a cleaning tool, or poker. Having a convenient tool kit or device to store these devices, tools, and product is a problem that continues today, and has resulted in several limited solutions. The proper preparation of tobacco for use with a one-hitter usually also includes the need to grind and clean the tobacco prior to pressing the tobacco into the end of the one-hitter to be li...
