MOUTHPIECE AND STEM FOR SMOKING APPARATUS.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 520,700, dated May 29, 1894.
Application filed January 30, 1894. Serial No. 498,439. (No model.)
To all whom it may concern:
l 3e 1t known that I, WALTER OBRIEN, a. citlzen of the United States, residing in Brooklyn, 1n the county of Kings and State of New York, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Mouthpieces and Stems for Smokmg Apparatus, of which the following 1s a specification.
This invention relates to such smoking apparatus as cigar holders, cigarette holders, and pipes, and aims to provide certain improvements in the mouth pieces and stems of such devices. l-Ieretofore in such devices the mouth piece, which has usually been flattened laterally, has been constructed with an outer 11p passing back of the tooth in use, a groove or tooth recess of uniform width in advance of this lip for receiving the tooth when closed on the mouth piece, and a stem pro ectlng either directly forward in a horizontal dlrection, or projecting upwardly or downwardly in a graceful curve. In such former constructions the lip of the mouth piece and its groove have extended laterally 111 a direction at right angles to a vertical plane traversing the axis of the stem. With thls construction, the smoke arising from the outer end of the device forms in front of the smokers face, and is liable to enterand irrltate his eyes and nostrils especially when walking or riding against the wind. In attempting to avoid this disadvantage, smokers frequently endeavor to carry their smoking apparatus at the side of the mouth, in order thereby to bring the source of smoke as far as possible to one side; but with such constructions of smoking apparatus it has been difficult and uncomfortable to maintain the apparatus in this position.
My invention aims to provide apparatus for smoking which can be conveniently used, and which in use will maintain the source of smoke at one side of the smokers face.
To this end in carrying out the preferred form of the invention, I provide the mouth piece with a lip extending laterally of the stem in a vertical plane obliquely angular relative to a vertical plane passing through the axis of the stem, and with a groove substantially parallel with this lip, but of different contour, depression or cross-section throughout its length, whereby when the lip is in the mouth the stem projects obliquely relatively to the portion of the mouth within which the stem is held, and in the case of a cigarette or cigar holder the mouth receiving socket thereof stands in a vertical plane obliquely angular to a vertical plane traversing the lip of the mouth piece of the holder.
In the accompanying drawings, Figure 1 is a plan view of the present style of cigar holder. Fig. 2 is an end view thereof. Fig. 3 is a plan View of a cigar holder constructed according to one form of my invention. Fig. 4 is a front elevation thereof. Fig. 5 is a plan view of a holder showing another form of my invention. Fig. 6 is a front elevation thereof. Fig. 7 is a plan view of a pipe constructed accord: ing to my invention. Fig. 8 is a front elevation thereof. Fig. 9 is a plan view on a larger scale showing my improved mouth piece and groove in their preferred form. Fig. 10 is a vertical section thereof cut on the line 10 and looking in the direction of the arrow in Fig. 9. Fig. 11 is a similar view out on the line 11 and looking in the direction of the arrow in Fig. 9.
Fig. 12 is a front elevation of the old style of downwardly curved cigar holder. Fig. 13 is a plan view thereof; Fig. 14 is a side elevation thereof. Fig. 15 is a plan view of a similarly shaped holder constructed according to my invention. of. Figf'17 is a side elevation thereof. Fig. 18 is a front elevation of a downwardly and laterally curved holder constructed according to another form of my invention. Fig. 19 is a Fig. 16 is a front elevation thereplan view thereof. Fig. 20 is a side elevation thereof. Fig. 21 is a plan view of an ordinary clay pipe constructed according to my invention; and Fig. 22 is afront elevation thereof. Figs. 23 and 24 are plan and front elevations of a laterally extended stem.
Referring to Figs. 1 and 2, let A indicate the stem, B the mouth piece, O the lip thereof, D a vertical plane parallel with said lip, Ea vertical plane intersecting the axis of the stem, F the mouth of the socket of the holder, and G a vertical plane parallel with said mouth. The parts shown are of the usual construction, and are described and illustrated for the purpose of more clearly indicating the nature of my present improvements, the preferred form of which is shown in Figs. 3, 4t, 9, 10 and 11, wherein the stem is lettered A, the mouth piece 13', the lip 0', its vertical plane D, the vertical plane of the stem E, the socket therein F, the vertical plane of the latter G, while my improved tooth groove shown in Figs. 3, 9, 10 and 11 is lettered II. According to this construction the lip 0 extends obliquely relatively to a vertical plane intersecting the axis of the stem, which plane is here indicated by the dotted line E. The lip C also extends obliquely relative to the plane of the socket F, which plane is indicated by the line G. By this arrangement the socket end of the stem will project toward the side of the users face when the mouth piece 13 is held in his mouth, whereby any irritating smoke arising at the outer end of the cigar held in the holder, will be sufiiciently to one side to pass the smokers face. Preferably in this construction the improved groove 11 for the tooth is employed. According to my invention this consists of a groove of varying size and shape throughout its length, as best seen in Figs. 9, 10 and 11, wherein at its end lettered II the groove is of greater width and depth than at its other end. This variation in shape of the groove H adapts it to the contour of the tooth at the side of the mouth, the broader portion of the groove being at the side of the mouth piece nearest to the corner of the month, where the teeth are broader, while the narrower part of the groove is at the side of the mouth piece farthest from the corner of the month, where the teeth are sharp or narrow.
Figs. 5 and 6 show a simple construction of the invention in which the stem lettered A" is bent laterally relatively to the lip C, so that the vertical plane lettered D of the latter is at an acute angle to the vertical plane lettered G of the socket lettered F of the stem.
Figs. 7 and 8 show a pipe in which the stem is lettered I, my improved lip J, the dotted line indicating the vertical plane K thereof, the dotted line for the vertical plane traversing the axis of the stem L, and the tooth groove M. In this construction the groove is of the usual form.
Figs. 12, 13 and 14 show a Well known construction of customary holder in which the stem is curved downwardly. In this construction the stem is lettered N, the mouth piece 0, the lip P, the socket Q, the groove R, the dotted line indicating the vertical plane of the lip S, the dotted line for the vertical plane of the axis of the stem T, and the dotted line for the vertical plane of the socket U. The parts here shown are of usual construction, and are illustrated for clearness in disclosing the difference between my improved holder and the old holder of this form. A similar construction provided with myimprovements is shown in Figs. 15, 16 and 17, in which the stem is lettered N, the mouth piece 0, the lip P, the socket Q, the' plane of the latter U, the plane of the lip S, the plane through the axis of the stem T and the groove B. This construction is identical in all material respects with that shown in Figs. 3 and 4., with the exception of the downward curvature of the stem N.
Figs. 18, 19 and 20 show my improvements applied to a downwardly and laterally curved stem. In these figures the stem is lettered N, the mouth piece 0, the lip P, the socket Q, the groove R", the plane of the mouth piece S, the dotted line corresponding to the axis of the stem T, and the dotted line corresponding to the mouth of the socket U". In other respects this construction is identical with that shown in Figs. 5 and (3, the description of which applies equally to this.
Figs. 21 and 22 show an ordinary clay pipe in which the stem is lettered a, the bowl I), the mouth piece a, the lip thereof d, the plane of the lip e, and the plane of the stem f.
It will be seen that the invention provides an improvement in mouth pieces for smoking apparatus which can be conveniently availed of, which will be advantageousin use, rendering the habit of smoking less injurious and more comfortable than heretofore.
In Figs. 23 and 2a the stem at, has a bend f between the mouth-piece c and the socket I), thus laterally extending the outer stem relatively to the lip d and groove h of the mouth-piece.
What I claim is- 1. In mouth pieces and stems for smoking apparatus, the combination with the stem of a lip at the month end thereof, extending laterally in a vertical plane obliquely angular to a vertical plane traversing the longitudinal axis of the stem.
2. In mouth pieces and stems for smoking apparatus, the combination with the stem, of a lip at the mouth end thereof, and a groove laterally traversing said stem adjacent to said lip, said groove being of greater width at its one end than at its other end.
3. In mouth pieces and stems for smoking apparatus, the combination with a stem having a socket at its outer end, of a lip at the month end of said stem, said lip extending laterally relatively to said stem in a vertical plane oblique to a vertical plane corresponding with the mouth of said socket.
4. In mouth pieces and stems for smoking apparatus, the combination with a stem A, of a lip C at the mouth end thereof, and a groove II of varying width throughout its length traversing said stem adjacent to said lip.
5. In mouth-pieces and stems for smoking apparatus, the combination with the mouthpiece, of a stem carried thereby and extended 0 In witness whereof I have hereunto signed laterally relatively thereto, substantially as my name in the presence of two subscribing m and for the purposes set forth. witnesses.
