Abstract

An example smoking apparatus for use with smoking materials in accordance with aspects of the present disclosure includes a mouthpiece, a bowl piece, and an inner tube, connecting the mouthpiece and the bowl piece. The smoking apparatus comprises an ejection mechanism to eject used smoking materials.

Claims (28)

1. A smoking apparatus for use with smoking materials, comprising:

a mouthpiece;

a bowl piece, and

an inner tube, connecting the mouthpiece and the bowl piece, wherein the inner tube comprises screw threads configured to be screwed into cooperating threads of the mouthpiece,

wherein the smoking apparatus comprises an ejection mechanism to eject used smoking materials, and wherein the ejection mechanism is activated when the mouthpiece is rotated allowing the screw threads of the inner tube to move the bowl piece away from the mouthpiece.

2. The smoking apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the mouthpiece and the inner tube are threaded.

3. The smoking apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the inner tube is removable and resides partially in the bowl piece.

4. The smoking apparatus of claim 2 , wherein the mouthpiece screws onto the inner tube to secure the mouthpiece and the bowl piece.

5. The smoking apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the bowl piece is in connection with the inner tube and the mouthpiece when the bowl piece and the mouthpiece are secured to each other.

6. The smoking apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the used smoking materials are ejected from the smoking apparatus by pushing the inner tube into the bowl piece when the bowl piece has been moved away from the mouthpiece.

7. The smoking apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the smoking apparatus is open when the mouthpiece is rotated counter-clockwise, and the smoking apparatus is closed when the mouthpiece is rotated clockwise.

8. The smoking apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the smoking apparatus is made of wood.

9. The smoking apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the inner tube is made of metal.

10. A method of ejecting used smoking materials out of a smoking apparatus comprising a bowl piece, mouthpiece, an inner tube comprising screw threads configured to be screwed into cooperating threads of the mouthpiece, and ejection mechanism, the method comprising:

rotating the mouthpiece to allow the screw threads of the inner tube, which connects the mouthpiece and the bowl piece, to move the bowl piece away from the mouthpiece; and

activating the ejection mechanism, when the bowl piece has moved away from the mouthpiece, to force the used smoking materials out of the smoking apparatus;

wherein the used smoking material is forced out of the smoking apparatus by pushing the inner tube into the bowl piece.

11. The method of claim 10 , wherein the smoking apparatus permits pushing the inner tube into the bowl piece when the bowl piece has been moved away from the mouthpiece.

12. An apparatus comprising:

a mouthpiece;

a bowl piece; and

an inner tube, connecting the mouthpiece and the bowl piece, wherein the inner tube comprises screw threads configured to be screwed into cooperating threads of the mouthpiece;

wherein the apparatus comprises an ejection mechanism to eject used materials, and

wherein the ejection mechanism is activated when the mouthpiece is rotated allowing the screw threads of the inner tube to move the bowl piece away from the mouthpiece.

13. The apparatus of claim 12 , wherein the used materials are ejected from the apparatus by pushing the inner tube into the bowl piece when the bowl piece has been moved away from the mouthpiece.

14. The apparatus of claim 12 , wherein the mouthpiece screws onto the inner tube to secure the mouthpiece and the bowl piece, and the apparatus is open when the mouthpiece is rotated counter-clockwise, and the apparatus is closed when the mouthpiece is rotated clockwise.

15. The apparatus of claim 12 , wherein the mouthpiece and the inner tube are threaded, and the inner tube is removable and resides partially in the bowl piece.

16. The apparatus of claim 12 , wherein the bowl piece is in connection with the inner tube and the mouthpiece when the inner tube is screwed into the mouthpiece and the bowl piece meets the mouthpiece.
