Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of cigar holders, specifically an improved cigar holder. Background Technology

[0002] As people's quality of life improves, cigars, as a high-end tobacco product, are becoming increasingly popular. Cigar stands have emerged as a result, featuring slots designed to hold cigars securely. This allows users to rest their cigars while smoking, freeing their hands and ensuring stability to prevent damage from rolling or slipping, thus enhancing the cigar smoking experience.

[0003] Current cigar stands use a grooved base to hold cigars upright and prevent them from rolling. However, in actual use, the light weight of the stand and the unevenness of the base cause an imbalance of gravity when cigars are being stored. Furthermore, the mismatch between the stand and the size of the cigar storage tube can cause cigars to fall during storage, resulting in damage such as broken wrappers, cracked caps, and deformation or breakage. Therefore, the inventor urgently needs to design a stable support structure to ensure the stability of the stand and protect the cigars. Utility Model Content

[0004] Therefore, the purpose of this utility model is to provide an improved cigar holder to solve the technical problem of unstable support.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: an improved cigar holder, comprising a frame, the frame providing stable support for the entire holder, a circular base at the bottom of the frame, a card holder fixedly installed on the top of the frame, the card holder having several grooves, the grooves being circular in structure, with an opening at the outer end to form a positioning space, a support rod vertically installed in the middle area between the card holder and the frame, the support rod being cylindrical in structure, and a grip piece fixedly connected to the top of the support rod.

[0006] By adopting the above technical solution, the combined structure of the frame, card seat, groove, support rod and handle provides basic stability for the whole bracket. The opening end of the circular groove structure forms a positioning space, which can flexibly accommodate the main body of maintenance pipe of different sizes, making it easy to install and disassemble quickly. Combined with the vertical installation of the support rod and the fixed connection of the handle, the entire bracket is easy to move and operate, improving the smoothness of the user experience.

[0007] Furthermore, the opening end of the groove is provided with a rounded corner, which is a smooth curved surface, to avoid scratches when the main body of the maintenance tube moves.

[0008] By adopting the above technical solution, the rounded corner structure at the opening end of the groove replaces the traditional sharp edge with a smooth curved surface, which can effectively avoid scratches or abrasions when inserting or removing the main body of the maintenance tube, ensuring the aesthetics and integrity of the maintenance tube surface. The smoothness of the rounded corner promotes the smooth movement of the maintenance tube, reduces the difficulty of operation and reduces time consumption, and improves the overall efficiency of use.

[0009] Furthermore, the main body of the maintenance tube includes a first tube, which is a transparent glass tube with through holes at both ends of its axial direction.

[0010] By adopting the above technical solution, the first tube, made of transparent glass, provides an intuitive observation window. Users can monitor the humidity, color, and overall condition of the cigars without opening the seal, enhancing the convenience of maintenance and management and helping to adjust storage conditions in a timely manner to prevent spoilage.

[0011] Furthermore, a sealing plug is installed at one end of the first tube, and the outer diameter of the sealing plug is interference-fitted with the inner diameter of the through hole.

[0012] By adopting the above technical solution, the outer diameter of the sealing plug and the inner diameter of the through hole form an interference fit, ensuring the complete sealing of the first tube end. This effectively isolates external moisture, dust or other contaminants from intrusion, maintains the stability of the microenvironment inside the tube, prevents the cigar from getting damp or oxidized, and thus protects its original flavor and quality.

[0013] Furthermore, the through hole at the other end of the first tube is a connection port, which has a structure that is wider at the top and narrower at the bottom, and the material of the connection port is rubber.

[0014] By adopting the above technical solution, the connection port adopts a structure that is wider at the top and narrower at the bottom, which facilitates quick connection with the spherical spice container. Users can achieve accurate assembly without precise alignment, which lowers the operation threshold and ensures that even novice users can complete the connection efficiently, reducing functional loss caused by misassembly.

[0015] Furthermore, a spherical spice container is connected and installed below the connection port. The rubber interface at the top of the spherical spice container forms a sealed sleeve with the bottom of the connection port, and the bottom has a circular planar structure.

[0016] By adopting the above technical solution, the spherical spice canister is connected to the connector at the top through a rubber interface, forming a sealed combination that ensures the even distribution of spice aroma. This spherical structure increases the surface area, allowing aroma molecules to diffuse slowly and continuously into the cigar tube, avoiding local over-concentration or under-concentration, and maintaining a stable enhancement of cigar flavor.

[0017] Furthermore, a second pipe parallel to the first pipe is provided on one side of the first pipe. The lower end of the second pipe is connected to the inner cavity of the connecting port, and the upper end is connected to the upper section of the first pipe to form a bypass connection.

[0018] By adopting the above technical solution, the second tube is set parallel to the first tube and connected by a bypass, which optimizes the airflow path, forms an auxiliary ventilation channel, enhances the circulation efficiency of the air inside the tube, promotes the even distribution of the aroma of spices, prevents the cigar from being too fragrant in some areas, and improves the quality of the cigar.

[0019] Furthermore, a limiting ring is provided around the first pipe. The limiting ring is a protruding structure that engages with the card seat to restrict the axial displacement of the main body of the maintenance pipe.

[0020] By adopting the above technical solution, the limiting ring, as a protruding structure, engages with the card seat, effectively limiting the axial displacement of the main body of the maintenance tube and preventing accidental slippage or tipping during use. This ensures the overall stability of the bracket and reduces the risk of tube damage or cigar collision caused by displacement.

[0021] In summary, the present invention has the following main advantages:

[0022] 1. This utility model provides a stable support base for the entire support through the frame. The support rod is vertically installed in the center area of ​​the card seat and the frame. The physical center of gravity setting significantly improves the support's anti-overturning ability. The grip makes it easy for users to move the support safely and avoid direct contact with the maintenance components. The rounded corners of the groove opening form a smooth transition surface, eliminating hard scraping when the main body of the maintenance tube slides into the card seat laterally, effectively protecting the integrity of the tube surface. The locking structure between the limiting ring and the card seat directly restricts the axial displacement of the main body of the maintenance tube, preventing it from accidentally coming out during operation, achieving double anti-loosening protection.

[0023] 2. This utility model uses a first tube made of transparent glass to make the condition of the cigar visible throughout the process, allowing users to monitor the maintenance effect in real time. The sealing plug ensures the sealing of the upper part of the first tube. It is combined with the spherical spice container to achieve a bottom sealing sleeve through the rubber connection port, forming a sealed environment for aroma storage and release. The second tube serves as a bypass channel, with the lower end connected to the inner cavity of the connection port and the upper end connected to the upper section of the first tube. It forces the aroma airflow to form a circulation path from bottom to top, and then through the bypass to the upper section, so that the aroma is evenly diffused to the whole cigar, avoiding local concentration imbalance. The spice container with a flat bottom structure maintains the stability of the placement, and finally achieves efficient maintenance with constant humidity and aroma penetration.

[0029] The technical solutions of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are only used to explain the present invention, and should not be construed as limiting the present invention.

[0030] In this embodiment:

[0031] An improved cigar holder, such as Figure 1-4 As shown, the system includes a frame 7, which provides stable support for the entire support structure. A circular base 2 is located below the frame 7, and a mounting bracket 6 is fixedly installed above the frame 7. The mounting bracket 6 has several circular grooves 1 with openings at their outer ends, forming a positioning space. A support rod 3, a cylindrical structure, is vertically installed in the middle area between the mounting bracket 6 and the frame 7. A gripper 4 is fixedly connected above the support rod 3. The combined structure of the frame, mounting bracket, grooves, support rod, and gripper provides basic stability for the entire support structure. The opening of the circular groove structure forms a positioning space, which can flexibly accommodate different sizes of maintenance pipe bodies, facilitating quick installation and disassembly. The vertical installation of the support rod and the fixed connection of the gripper make the entire support easy to handle and operate, improving the smoothness of the user experience, simplifying the production process, reducing component redundancy, and ensuring the support remains structurally robust during long-term use, avoiding functional defects caused by loose components.

[0032] See Figure 1 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 The opening end of the groove 1 is provided with a rounded corner 5, which is a smooth curved surface. This is used to avoid scratches when the main body of the maintenance tube 11 moves. The rounded corner structure at the opening end of the groove replaces the traditional sharp edge with a smooth curved surface, which can effectively avoid scratches or abrasions when inserting or removing the main body of the maintenance tube. This ensures the aesthetics and integrity of the surface of the maintenance tube. The smoothness of the rounded corner promotes the smooth movement of the maintenance tube, reduces the difficulty of operation and reduces the time consumption, improves the overall efficiency of use, reduces wear on the maintenance tube, maintains its smoothness, and avoids the possibility of stress concentration or cracking caused by the accumulation of tiny scratches.

[0033] See Figure 1, Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 The main body 11 of the maintenance tube includes a first tube 8, which is a transparent glass tube with through holes at both ends of its axial direction. The transparent glass tube provides an intuitive observation window, allowing users to monitor the humidity, color, and overall condition of the cigars without opening the sealing plug. This enhances the convenience of maintenance management, helps to adjust storage conditions in a timely manner to prevent deterioration, reduces hygiene risks, and extends the service life of the tube. The overall structure ensures ventilation efficiency while maintaining lightness and durability, providing a safe and reliable protective barrier for the cigars.

[0034] See Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 4 A sealing plug 10 is installed at one end of the first tube 8. The outer diameter of the sealing plug 10 is in an interference fit with the inner diameter of the through hole. This interference fit ensures the complete sealing of the end of the first tube, effectively preventing the intrusion of external moisture, dust or other contaminants, maintaining the stability of the microenvironment inside the tube, and preventing the cigar from getting damp or oxidized, thereby protecting its original flavor and quality. The interference fit avoids the risk of loosening of traditional seals and eliminates potential leakage points through continuous tight contact, ensuring reliability under long-term use.

[0035] See Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 4 The other end of the first tube 8 has a through hole for a connector 14. The connector 14 has a structure that is wider at the top and narrower at the bottom. The material of the connector 14 is rubber. The structure of the connector is wider at the top and narrower at the bottom, which makes it easy to quickly connect with the spherical spice container. Users do not need to align precisely to achieve accurate assembly, which lowers the operation threshold and ensures that even novice users can complete the connection efficiently. It also reduces the functional loss caused by misassembly. The rubber material of the connector provides good elasticity and deformation recovery ability. It can tightly fit the interface surface to form a sealing barrier to prevent the leakage of spices or moisture, maintain the purity of the environment inside the tube, and avoid external interference affecting the quality of the cigar.

[0036] See Figure 1 , Figure 4A spherical spice container 13 is connected and installed below the connection port 14. The rubber interface at the top of the spherical spice container 13 forms a sealed fit with the bottom of the connection port 14. The bottom has a circular flat structure. The spherical spice container is connected to the connection port through the rubber interface at its top to form a sealed fit, ensuring the uniform diffusion of the spice aroma. This spherical structure increases the surface area, allowing the aroma molecules to diffuse slowly and continuously into the maintenance tube, avoiding local over-concentration or under-concentration, and maintaining a stable enhancement of the cigar flavor. The circular flat structure at the bottom of the container provides a stable base for placement, reducing the risk of tipping over and enhancing the overall balance of the support. Users can keep the container stable during movement or operation, reducing the occurrence of accidents.

[0037] See Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 4 A second pipe 9 is provided parallel to the first pipe 8 on one side. The lower end of the second pipe 9 is connected to the inner cavity of the connection port 14, and the upper end is connected to the upper section of the first pipe 8 to form a bypass connection. The second pipe is set parallel to the first pipe and connected by the bypass, which optimizes the airflow path, forms an auxiliary ventilation channel, enhances the circulation efficiency of the air in the pipe, promotes the even distribution of the aroma of spices, prevents the cigar from being too fragrant in some areas, improves the quality of the cigar, enhances reliability through the dual path, reduces the smoking time, improves the quality of the cigar, and promotes the spread and circulation of aroma.

[0038] See Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 The first tube 8 is provided with a limiting ring 12 around its circumference. The limiting ring 12 is a protruding structure that engages with the holder 6 to limit the axial displacement of the main body 11 of the maintenance tube. As a protruding structure, the limiting ring engages with the holder, effectively limiting the axial displacement of the main body of the maintenance tube and preventing accidental slippage or tipping during use. This ensures the overall stability of the support and reduces the risk of tube damage or cigar collision caused by displacement. The limiting ring also eliminates vibration interference through precise engagement, maintains a stable environment inside the tube, avoids airflow fluctuations affecting cigar quality, reduces the need for frequent adjustments, and extends the life of the components.

[0039] The implementation principle of this embodiment is as follows: The user first holds the grip 4 to move the support, placing the frame 7 on a stable surface for support. The main body 11 of the cigar tube is vertically inserted into the positioning space through the opening of the groove 1 on the holder 6. The rounded corner 5 at the opening end of the groove 1 ensures a smooth and scratch-free movement. At this time, the circumferential limiting ring 12 of the first tube 8 engages with the edge of the holder 6, effectively limiting the axial displacement of the main body 11 of the cigar tube. The support rod 3 is vertically installed in the central area of ​​the holder 6 and the frame 7, providing stable center of gravity support for the whole. The cigar is inserted axially into the first tube 8 made of transparent glass. Inside, for easy observation of the status by the user, the upper end of the first tube 8 is sealed by an interference fit of the sealing plug 10, and the lower end is sealed to the top of the spherical spice container 13 through a rubber connector 14. The aroma released by the spice container enters the lower section of the first tube 8 through the connector 14, and rises to the upper section of the first tube 8 through the bypass connected second tube 9, forming an up-and-down circulating airflow channel. This circulation ensures that the aroma diffuses evenly and maintains the appropriate humidity inside the tube. Finally, with the dual protection of the anti-displacement limit ring 12 and the stability of the support rod 3, the cigar is stably supported and optimized for maintenance.
