Hookah device
Described is a hookah device. The hookah device includes a unique hookah head and consumable pod. The hookah head includes a bowl portion with a pod recess formed therein to receive a consumable pod. An electronic heating mechanism is positioned within the hookah head for heating the consumable pod. An air pathway is formed through the hookah head to introduce air into the consumable pod and direct smoke from the consumable pod into a hookah body. The consumable pod is similarly formed to fit within the hookah head. Further, the consumable pod includes a pod inlet and pod outlet for directing air through the pod and through the hookah device for inhalation.
1. A hookah device, comprising:
a hookah head, the hookah head having:
a bowl portion with a pod recess formed therein to receive a consumable pod;
a bowl top having an electronic heating mechanism positioned above the pod recess such that any consumable pod positioned within the pod recess is heated from above the pod recess; and
a first air pathway having a downward facing top inlet passing downward through the bowl top to the pod recess; and
a second air pathway having an upward facing top outlet
wherein the bowl top connects with the bowl portion to seal the pod recess excepting the downward facing top inlet and upward facing top outlet, such that the second air pathway passes upward from the pod recess, downward around the pod recess, and then to a down stem, whereby the first air pathway is formed to draw air downward into a consumable pod, laterally through the consumable pod, and out of the consumable pod through the second air pathway in an upward direction through the upward facing top outlet.
2. The hookah device as set forth in claim 1 , further comprising a hookah body connected to the hookah head, the hookah body having a vase with a down stem projecting into the vase, and a hose port in fluid communication with the vase for receiving smoke from the hookah head, through the down stem, and out of the hose port for inhalation by a user.
3. The hookah device as set forth in claim 2 , wherein the electronic heating mechanism includes an electric heater and a heating plate.
4. The hookah device as set forth in claim 3 , wherein the hookah head includes a bowl top having the electric heater affixed therein such that the heating plate is positioned below the electric heater, where when a consumable pod is placed within the pod recess, the heating plate is affixed between the electric heater and the consumable pod.
5. The hookah device as set forth in claim 4 , wherein the first and second air pathways are formed through both the bowl top and bowl portion such that when a consumable pod is positioned within the bowl portion, the first and second air pathways align with openings within the consumable pod.
6. The hookah device as set forth in claim 5 , further comprising a consumable pod, the consumable pod formed to contain a consumable item therein and having a capping surface with both a pod inlet and a pod outlet formed therethrough.
7. The hookah device as set forth in claim 6 , wherein the capping surface of the consumable pod includes a cap recess that is formed to receive and accommodate a heating plate.
8. The hookah device as set forth in claim 7 , wherein the pod inlet and the pod outlet are formed such that when the consumable pod is positioned within the head, the pod inlet and pod outlet align with the top inlet and top outlet, respectively.
9. The hookah device as set forth in claim 8 , further comprising a tear-off lid affixed with the consumable pod to conceal the capping surface and consumable item therein.
10. The hookah device as set forth in claim 9 , wherein the consumable item is shi sha.
11. The hookah device as set forth in claim 1 , wherein the electronic heating mechanism includes an electric heater and a heating plate.
12. The hookah device as set forth in claim 11 , wherein the hookah head includes a bowl top having the electric heater affixed therein such that the heating plate is positioned below the electric heater, where when a consumable pod is placed within the pod recess, the heating plate is affixed between the electric heater and the consumable pod.
13. The hookah device as set forth in claim 1 , further comprising a consumable pod, the consumable pod formed to contain a consumable item therein and having a capping surface with both a pod inlet and a pod outlet formed therethrough.
14. The hookah device as set forth in claim 13 , wherein the capping surface of the consumable pod includes a cap recess that is formed to receive and accommodate a heating plate.
15. The hookah device as set forth in claim 13 , wherein the first and second air pathways are formed through both the bowl top and bowl portion such that when a consumable pod is positioned within the bowl portion, the first and second air pathways align atifig with openings within the consumable pod.
16. The hookah device as set forth in claim 13 , further comprising a tear-off lid affixed with the consumable pod to conceal the capping surface and consumable item therein.
