Cigarette holder

Abstract

The present invention relates to a cigarette holder comprising a body (1) initially presenting as a flat shape, which can be bent by the user into a cylindrical shape to be inserted into one end of a cigarette (7), wherein the body (1) comprises a plurality of holes (2) aligned in at least one row, which, when the body (1) is bent into a cylindrical shape, cause the area (3) between the holes (2) to fold inwards into the cylinder, forming a surface formed by the overlapping of the folds (4) formed by the areas (3), the body (1) further comprising a plurality of perforations (6) configured to facilitate the folding of the body (1), wherein the holes (2) may be rectangular or V-shaped. This holder allows for a more satisfying smoking experience while helping to avoid tobacco inhalation.

Description

OBJECT OF THE INVENTION

[0001] As the title of the invention states, the subject of the present invention is a cigarette holder, which allows for a more satisfying tobacco smoking experience. It is an innovation that provides previously unknown advantages among current techniques.

[0002] The present invention is characterised by the special functional and structural features of the elements that form part of the device in such a way that they all contribute to the achievement of a cigarette holder developed to provide smokers with a more comfortable experience when enjoying their cigarette, while at the same time helping to prevent tobacco inhalation.TECHNICAL FIELD

[0003] Therefore, the present invention is confined to the field of tobacco smoking and in particular to rolling tobacco smoking.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

[0004] Rolling cigarettes holders are a fundamental element in the smoking experience. However, they often present a number of problems that affect both comfort and smoke quality. These problems can range from blockages to leaks, and it is important to address them to ensure an optimal smoking experience.

[0005] One of the most common problems with rolling cigarette holders is blockages. This can occur due to the build-up of tar and tobacco residues, which makes it difficult for smoke to pass through. Blockage does not only affect the quality of the smoke, but can also cause the cigarette to burn unevenly, resulting in an unpleasant experience for the smoker.

[0006] Another common problem is tobacco leakage. This happens when the holder is not properly sealed, allowing tobacco to escape during the cigarette rolling process. Leakage not only results in tobacco waste, but can also cause the cigarette to fall apart during smoking, resulting in an uncomfortable smoking experience for the smoker.

[0007] In addition, rolling cigarette holders may also present hygiene-related problems. The accumulation of tobacco residues and tar can create an environment conducive to the growth of bacteria and fungi, posing a health risk to the smoker. In addition, the presence of residues in the holder can affect the taste of the smoke, which negatively impacts the smoking experience.

[0008] As a reference to the current state of the art, it should be noted that although different designs of cigarette holders are known, the existence of any other that presents structural and constitutive technical features that are equal or similar to those presented by the invention claimed herein is unknown.DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0009] The object of the invention is a cigarette holder that allows smokers to enjoy their cigarette in a more comfortable manner which avoids sucking the tobacco.

[0010] Specifically, what the invention proposes, as stated above, is a cigarette holder comprising a body initially presenting as a flat shape, which can be bent by the user into a cylindrical shape to be inserted into one end of a cigarette.

[0011] The cigarette holder body comprises a plurality of holes aligned in at least one row. These holes, as the body is bent into a cylindrical shape, cause the area between them to fold inwards into the cylinder, forming a surface formed by the overlapping of the folds formed by the areas that prevent the tobacco from slipping into the mouth.

[0012] In addition, the holder body includes a plurality of perforations configured to facilitate the folding of the body. These perforations are a key element in ensuring that the body bending process is simple and accurate.

[0013] Depending on the embodiment, holes may be rectangular or V-shaped. This variation in the shape of the holes may influence the smoking experience of the smoker when using the cigarette holder and facilitate the bending thereof.

[0014] Additionally, the holes may be aligned in two or more rows. This arrangement allows for greater efficiency of the device.

[0015] Except when indicated otherwise, all of the technical and scientific elements used in this specification have the meaning commonly understood by a person with average skill in the art to which this invention belongs. When this invention is put into practice, methods and materials may be used that are similar or equivalent to the ones described in the specification.BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

Figure 2 is a representation of the unfolded cigarette holder with two rows of holes (2). Figure 3 is a perspective representation of the semi-folded cigarette holder. Figure 4 is a perspective representation of the cigarette holder on a cigarette (7). PREFERRED EMBODIMENT OF THE INVENTION

[0017] In view of the figures, a preferred but non-limiting embodiment of the proposed invention, which consists of a cigarette holder, is described below.

[0018] As shown in the figures, the cigarette holder comprises a body (1) initially presenting as a flat shape, which can be bent by the user into a cylindrical shape to be inserted into one end of a cigarette (7).

[0019] This body (1) comprises a plurality of holes (2) aligned in at least one row, which, when the body (1) is bent into a cylindrical shape, cause the area (3) between the holes (2) to fold inwards into the cylinder, forming a surface formed by the overlapping of the folds (4) formed by the areas (3).

[0020] Moreover, the body (1) comprises a plurality of perforations (6) configured to facilitate the folding of the body (1).

[0021] Depending on the embodiment, holes (2) may be rectangular or V-shaped.

[0022] Additionally, the holes (2) are aligned in two or more rows.

[0023] Having sufficiently described the nature of the present invention, as well as the ways of implementing it, it is not considered necessary to extend its explanation for any person skilled in the state of the art to understand its scope and the advantages which derive from it, specifying that, within its essential nature, it can be carried out in other embodiments that differ in detail from the one provided by way of example, and which are also covered by the requested protection, provided that they do not alter, change or modify its fundamental principle.
