Smoke-simulating pipe
View Patent ↗The invention is directed at the full simulation of a smoking process when a smoker uses the inventive pipe. Said smoking-simulating pipe comprises a shank ( 1 ) and a bowl ( 2 ) which are embodied in one piece, and a stem ( 4 ) which is detachable from the shank ( 1 ) and is provided with a bit, wherein a cavity ( 5 ), which is used for placing a sealed capsule ( 6 ) provided with a nicotine-containing or flavoring agent, is embodied in a smoking channel ( 14 ), and an electric heater ( 7 ) connected to a power supply ( 8 ), which is arranged in the walls of the bowl ( 2 ), is located before the capsule ( 6 ) in the smoking channel ( 14 ).
1. A smoking-simulating pipe comprising a shank and a bowl which are embodied in one piece and a stem which is detachable from the shank and is provided with a bit, a cavity is provided between the shank and the stem in a smoking channel to arrange a sealed capsule with a nicotine-containing or flavouring agent, and an electric heater is situated before the capsule in the smoking channel and connected with a power supply accommodated in the walls of the bowl wherein:
the power supply is provided with a push-button switch arranged on the surface of the bowl;
on the external surface of the stem bit are arranged sensors for connection of the power supply upon contact therewith;
in the smoking channel between the bowl and the capsule is positioned a sensor for connection of the power supply at times of air passage via the channel;
and wherein the top part of the bowl of the pipe is rotatable and combined with a mode selector switch.
2. The pipe according to claim 1 , wherein the cavity for placing the capsule is fitted with means for its seal failure.
3. The pipe according to claim 1 , wherein the capsule is in a shape of a hermetically sealed cylinder whose base parts are closed by membranes.
4. The pipe according to claim 1 , wherein the power supply is situated in a cavity provided in a bottom part of the bowl.
5. The pipe according to claim 1 , wherein the power supply is arranged in a cavity provided in a top part of the bowl.
6. The pipe according to claim 1 , wherein the power supply is provided with a current intensity regulator.
7. The pipe according to claim 6 , wherein the current intensity regulator is executed in the form of a circular rheostat situated at the detachment of the shank and the stem.
8. The pipe according to claim 1 , wherein it is provided with a sound source.
9. The pipe according to claim 8 , wherein the sound source is in a shape of an acoustic transducer connected to the power supply.
10. The pipe according to claim 9 , wherein the sound supply is accommodated inside the bowl.
11. The pipe according to claim 8 , wherein the sound source is implemented in the form of one or more through bores of variable section whose inlets and outlets are positioned on the internal surface of the bowl.
12. The pipe according to claim 1 , wherein it is fitted with a light source situated inside the bowl and connected to the power supply.
