Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

They are only for the convenience of describing this invention and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on this invention.
[0020] Example:
[0021] Please see Figure 1-2 The present invention provides a technical solution:
[0022] A novel pipe includes a pipe body 1, with a tobacco holding slot 2 at the upper part of the interior of the pipe body 1, a cavity 3 inside the pipe body 1, and a flue 4 between the cavity 3 and the tobacco holding slot 2, ensuring communication between the tobacco holding slot 2 and the cavity 3 through the flue 4. A mounting slot is provided at the right end of the pipe body 1, and a mouthpiece 5 is inserted into the mounting slot. The exterior of the pipe body 1 is coated with raw lacquer 6, which has 10 layers. A base cloth layer 7 is provided outside the raw lacquer 6, which is made of grade 10 linen. A surface lacquer layer 8 is provided outside the base cloth layer 7, which consists of colored lacquer and gold lacquer, with a total of 20 layers.
[0023] A decorative ring 9 is fitted around the upper end of the hopper body 1 outside the tobacco holding trough 2 to enhance the aesthetics of the edge of the hopper body 1.
[0024] A rubber ring 10 is fixed to the outside of the mouthpiece 5. An annular groove is opened inside the mounting groove. The rubber ring 10 is engaged with the annular groove. After installation, the mouthpiece 5 can be limited and the sealing of the connection of the mouthpiece 5 can be ensured. Similarly, when the mouthpiece 5 needs to be replaced, it is convenient to disassemble the mouthpiece 5.
[0025] The specific preparation steps for this novel pipe are as follows:
[0026] Step 1: Material Selection and Pipe Blank Preparation: Select a high-density, flame-retardant, and breathable substrate suitable for making pipes (such as briar, nanmu, and hard sandalwood). According to the preset pipe size, cut it into a pipe blank using a wood saw. The blank size needs to allow for subsequent processing (2-3mm on each side). Use a belt sander to roughly sand the blank to remove burrs from the edges and corners, and initially shape the external outline of the pipe body (including the basic shape of the body and grip). After sanding, use sandpaper (120 grit) to hand-sand it to make the surface smooth and free of scratches.
[0027] Step 2: Processing the internal functional structure of the pipe body: Using a CNC milling machine or a hand chisel, a tobacco holding groove is opened inside the upper part of the pipe body. The depth and diameter of the groove are determined according to the pipe specifications, typically 15-25mm in depth and 20-30mm in diameter. A cavity is opened at the corresponding position inside the pipe body. The cavity must be connected to the bottom of the tobacco holding groove to serve as a smoke buffer space. The volume of the cavity should be moderate to avoid excessive smoke retention. A flue is drilled along a predetermined path using a drill bit, ensuring that one end of the flue connects to the cavity and the other end extends to the mounting groove on the right side of the pipe body. The diameter of the flue is controlled at 2-3mm to ensure smooth smoke flow and a stable flow rate. After drilling, the inner wall of the flue is polished with a cleaning rod and sandpaper to remove burrs and debris and prevent blockage.
[0028] A mounting groove adapted to the mouthpiece is machined at the right end of the bucket body. The groove depth and diameter match the insertion size of the mouthpiece. An annular groove is opened on the inner wall of the mounting groove. The width and depth of the annular groove must fit completely with the rubber ring to ensure a leak-free seal during subsequent assembly.
[0029] Step 3: Preparation and Assembly of Mouthpiece Components: Food-grade acrylic, vulcanized hard rubber, or natural horn is selected as the base material for the mouthpiece. It is machined into an insert shape that fits the mounting groove using a lathe. The bite end of the mouthpiece needs to be ground into a rounded arc to improve grip comfort. The rubber ring is tightly fitted into the preset position of the mouthpiece, and high-temperature resistant adhesive is used for auxiliary fixation. The mouthpiece with the rubber ring is inserted into the mounting groove of the casing, ensuring that the rubber ring is completely inserted into the annular groove. The mouthpiece is gently pushed until there is no looseness or air leakage, and the mouthpiece assembly is completed.
[0030] Step 4: Multi-layer coating treatment of the bucket body surface: Use 200-grit sandpaper to finely sand the exterior of the bucket body to remove processing marks; wipe the surface with a lint-free cloth dampened with alcohol to remove dust and oil stains, and let it dry. The ambient temperature should be controlled at 20-25℃ and the humidity at 50%-60% to prevent the raw lacquer from becoming damp. Take natural raw lacquer, stir it evenly, and then use a brush to apply it thinly and evenly to the surface of the bucket body, keeping the coating direction consistent; after applying the first layer, place it in a ventilated and cool place to dry for 12-24 hours. After drying, lightly sand the surface with 300-grit sandpaper to remove runs and air bubbles; repeat the coating → drying → sanding operation to complete a total of 10 layers of raw lacquer coating, finally forming a dense bottom protective layer to improve the bucket body's corrosion resistance and moisture resistance;
[0031] Select grade 10 linen as the base layer and cut it into a shape that matches the outline of the bucket body; evenly apply a layer of raw lacquer as an adhesive to the surface of the raw lacquer base layer, then flatly paste the linen onto the surface of the bucket body, use a scraper to smooth the linen, remove internal air bubbles, and ensure that the linen and the raw lacquer layer are completely adhered; place it in a cool place to dry for 48 hours, and after drying, use 400-grit sandpaper to sand the surface of the linen until it is smooth and free of bumps.
[0032] First, apply the colored paint, using a thin, multiple-coat principle. After each coat dries for 12 hours, sand it with 600-grit sandpaper. Apply a total of 15 coats of colored paint to form a uniform base layer. On top of the colored paint layer, apply gold paint according to the design requirements. The remaining 5 coats are gold paint layers. After each coat dries, sand it with 800-grit sandpaper. The last gold paint layer does not need to be sanded after drying, leaving sufficient allowance for subsequent polishing. Use 1000-grit or finer sandpaper to manually sand the surface paint layer. Then, use polishing paste and a polishing cloth for fine polishing until the surface has a mirror-like shine, enhancing the pipe's appearance and feel. Select metal (copper, stainless steel) or hard resin material to make a decorative ring, which is machined to fit the outer ring size of the tobacco holding slot at the top of the pipe. Apply a small amount of raw lacquer as an adhesive to the predetermined position on the outer side of the tobacco holding slot at the top of the pipe. Tightly fit the decorative ring into this position, ensuring that the decorative ring is horizontal and not tilted. Let it dry and cure.
