Description

A pipe that automatically recycles and purifies secondhand smoke Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of pipe technology, specifically a pipe that automatically recycles and purifies secondhand smoke. Background Technology

[0002] A pipe is a device used for smoking tobacco. After stuffing it with chopped tobacco, it is lit and smoked. It is estimated that the pipe as a smoking tool appeared when the act of smoking began, and using a pipe is the earliest way of smoking. Technical issues

[0003] However, the harm of secondhand smoke to passive smokers has always been an unavoidable problem for smokers. Existing secondhand smoke collection devices mostly involve installing air purifiers in relatively enclosed spaces to filter air mixed with secondhand smoke and achieve purification. The drawback of this method is that the secondhand smoke has already spread in the air before it is disposed of, and the harm to passive smokers has already occurred. At the same time, the amount of mixed air processed by the air purifier after the secondhand smoke is mixed with the air is very large and difficult to collect quickly and completely. The best time to dispose of secondhand smoke is before the secondhand smoke exhaled by the smoker spreads in the air. Currently, there are no products on the market that can collect and purify secondhand smoke before it spreads in the air, nor are there any products that can integrate secondhand smoke collection, purification and smoking functions. Technical solutions

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a pipe that automatically recycles and purifies secondhand smoke, in order to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0005] The objective of this invention can be achieved through the following technical solutions:

[0006] An automatic secondhand smoke recycling and purification pipe includes a pipe shell, a combustion chamber inside the pipe shell, a cigarette fixing device at the top of the combustion chamber, a secondhand smoke inlet on the outside of the cigarette fixing device, a purified air outlet at the bottom of the pipe shell, and a secondhand smoke purification mechanism between the secondhand smoke inlet and the purified air outlet.

[0007] Preferably, the pipe shell includes an upper section and a lower section, the upper part of which is provided with a gas collecting hood and a fixed support, and a secondhand smoke inlet is provided between the gas collecting hood and the fixed support;

Embodiments of the present invention

[0033] The technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. 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.

[0034] An automatic secondhand smoke recycling and purification pipe includes a pipe shell 1, a combustion chamber 18 inside the pipe shell 1, a cigarette fixing device 3 at the top of the combustion chamber 18, a secondhand smoke inlet 22 on the outside of the cigarette fixing device 3, a purified air outlet 23 at the bottom of the pipe shell 1, and a secondhand smoke purification mechanism between the secondhand smoke inlet 22 and the purified air outlet 23.

[0035] The pipe shell 1 includes an upper section 27 and a lower section 6. The upper section 27 is provided with a gas collection hood 28 and a fixed support 29. A secondhand smoke inlet 22 is provided between the gas collection hood 28 and the fixed support 29. Several purified air outlets 23 are provided through the outer wall of the lower section 6. An ignition button 2 is installed on the outer wall of the lower section 6. A rear cover 4 is installed at the bottom of the lower section 6. A charging port 26 is provided on the bottom surface of the rear cover 4. The upper section 27 and the lower section 6 are connected by threads. The combustion chamber 18 includes a combustion shell 15. Several combustion chamber air inlets and outlets 17 are provided through the outer wall of the combustion shell 15 near the upper end. The cigarette fixing device 3 is a hollow cylindrical shape. A position adjustment and locking device is installed on the outside of the cigarette fixing device 3 for flexibly removing the cigarette fixing device 3 and fixing it inside the pipe shell 1.

[0036] In use, remove the cigarette holder 3 from inside the pipe shell 1, insert the cigarette into the cigarette holder 3, and then reinsert the cigarette holder 3 into the upper part of the pipe shell 1. Then, control the battery 5 through the ignition button 2 so that the battery 5 powers the mounting base 10 through the quick-connect socket 9 and quick-connect connector 12, turning on the heating wire 11 to light the cigarette. At this time, the user can smoke through the cigarette holder 3. During the smoking process, the secondhand smoke exhaled enters the gap between the combustion shell 15 and the air filter element 8 through the secondhand smoke inlet 22. After being purified by the air filter element 8, the secondhand smoke enters the gap between the air filter element 8 and the pipe shell 1 and flows into the lower section 6 of the shell, and flows out through the purified air outlet 23, thus completing the purification treatment of secondhand smoke.

[0037] Combustion chamber air inlet 17 is provided on the side wall of combustion chamber 18. When smoking, air enters through this inlet to facilitate cigarette combustion. When not smoking, the smoke from the spontaneous combustion of the cigarette is discharged through this inlet. After being purified by air filter element 8, it is finally discharged from purified air outlet 23.

[0038] When a cigarette is lit using the cigarette lighter, the fan 14 is turned on at the same time and operates at a low speed, creating a slight negative pressure in the combustion chamber 18 and the secondhand smoke inlet 22. The small amount of smoke generated when the cigarette is spontaneously combusted passes through the air filter element 8 and finally flows out from the purified air outlet 23. When secondhand smoke is exhaled into the secondhand smoke inlet 22, the airflow sensor 7 is triggered. The airflow sensor 7 transmits a signal to the controller 25, which controls the fan 14 to turn on high-speed mode to quickly expel the exhaled secondhand smoke.

[0039] Meanwhile, the airflow sensor 7 can sense the airflow size in real time and, in conjunction with the controller 25, make the controller 25 control the operating speed of the fan 14 to change with the airflow size. When exhaling secondhand smoke quickly, the fan 14 will run quickly, and when exhaling secondhand smoke slowly, the fan will run slowly. The exhaust volume of the fan 14 is always kept just enough to exhale secondhand smoke. The fan 14 will inevitably generate noise when it is running. When smoking, you can control the speed of exhaling secondhand smoke according to different environments, thereby controlling the noise level of the fan 14. For example, in the quiet of the night, try to reduce the speed of exhaling secondhand smoke to control the noise. In noisy or open environments, you can exhale freely.

[0040] In this invention, the air filter element 8 will accumulate soot and tar after repeated use, affecting the purification effect. The air filter element 8 can be easily disassembled and replaced regularly.

[0041] The foregoing has shown and described the basic principles, main features, and advantages of the present invention. Those skilled in the art should understand that the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments. The embodiments and descriptions in the specification are merely illustrative of the principles of the invention. Various changes and modifications can be made to the invention without departing from its spirit and scope, and all such changes and modifications fall within the scope of the claimed invention.
