Smokable insert system including flavor releasing mechanism held by a lower partition
An insert system for use with a smokable (e.g., such as a pre-rolled or empty cone) including an internal partition that extends from the insert system's first end to an intermediate location between the insert system's first and its second end. A flavor releasing mechanism (e.g., a flavor ball) is located within the insert system between the intermediate location and the system's second end. Accordingly, the internal partition obstructs the flavor releasing mechanism from passing through the system's first end. The system's second end includes an obstructor (e.g., a perforated cap) thereby obstructing the flavor releasing mechanism from passing through the system's second end. The insert system may then be coupled with a smokable item to serve as the item's mouthpiece.
1. A smokable item comprising:
a section of material including a top edge, a bottom edge, a first side edge extending between the top edge and the bottom edge, and a second side edge opposite the first side edge and extending between the top edge and the bottom edge, the top edge and the second side edge converging to form a first corner portion, the bottom edge and the second side edge converging to form a second corner portion, a cutout area formed by removing the first corner portion, the second corner portion folded towards the first side edge to form a partition portion, a first portion of the section of material rolled about the partition portion and about the first cutout area to form a rolled section of material with an inner volume and with the partition portion extending through the inner volume from the bottom edge to the first cutout area, and the first cutout area extending from an end of the partition portion to the top edge;
a flavor releasing mechanism within the inner volume in the cutout area, the flavor releasing mechanism including a hollow shell filled with a flavoring substance;
a combustible elongate member including a mouth end and a lighting end opposite the mouth end, the top edge coupled proximal to the mouth end such that the bottom edge is located distal from the mouth end.
2. The smokable item of claim 1 further comprising an obstructor in the cutout area within the inner volume and located between the partition portion and the top edge.
3. The smokable item of claim 2 wherein the obstructor and the partition portion are located on opposite sides of the flavor releasing mechanism.
4. The smokable item of claim 2 wherein the obstructor comprises an obstructor material separate from the section of material.
5. The smokable item of claim 2 wherein the obstructor is held within the inner volume solely by pressure fit.
6. The smokable item of claim 1 wherein the partition portion comprises a single linear segment of the section of material that extends continually across the inner volume.
7. The smokable item of claim 1 wherein the partition portion separates the inner volume into two elongate compartments.
8. The smokable item of claim 1 further comprising a flavor releasing mechanism holder comprising a tubular structure with a hollow passageway and the hollow shell filled with a flavoring substance is located within the hollow passageway.
9. A method of forming a smokable item comprising:
(A) providing a section of material including a top edge, a bottom edge, a first side edge extending between the top edge and the bottom edge, and a second side edge opposite the first side edge and extending between the top edge and the bottom edge, the top edge and the second side edge converging to form a first corner portion, and the bottom edge and the second side edge converging to form a second corner portion;
(B) removing the first corner portion to form a first cutout area in the section of material;
(C) folding the second corner portion towards the first side edge to form a partition portion;
(D) rolling a first portion the first section of material about the partition portion and about the first cutout area to form a rolled section of material with an inner volume, the partition portion extending through the inner volume from the bottom edge to the first cutout area and the first cutout area extending from an end of the partition portion to the top edge;
(E) placing a flavor releasing mechanism into the inner volume in the cutout area, the flavor releasing mechanism including a hollow shell filled with a flavoring substance;
(F) providing a combustible elongate member including a mouth end and a lighting end opposite the mouth end;
(G) coupling the top edge proximal to the mouth end of the combustible elongate member such that the bottom edge is located distal from the mouth end.
10. The method of claim 9 further comprising:
(E) (1) providing a flavor releasing mechanism holder comprising a tubular structure with a hollow passageway;
(E) (2) placing the hollow shell filled with a flavoring substance into the hollow passageway.
11. The method of claim 9 wherein the removing the first corner portion in (B) includes at least one of cutting the first corner portion and folding the first corner portion.
