page_text: I, GASTON GRANDCLÉMENT of Saint-Claude (Jura) in the Republic of France,
Tobacco-pipe Manufacturer, do hereby declare the nature of this invention to be as
follows:-
This invention relates to a form of pipe having an independent reservoir, arranged
in such a manner as to receive and isolate the products of the condensation of the
sinoke and, if necessary the saliva, as well as the products of the combustion of the
tobacco.
In order that my invention may be readily understood, I have represented in the
accompanying drawing, by way of example only two forms of my reservoir pipe.
Figure 1 represents a longitudinal vertical section through a pipe. the reservoir of
which does not communicate with the bowl.
Figure 2 represents a longitudinal vertical section through a pipe the reservoir of
which communicates with the bowl.
In these two figures the same letters of reference are employed to indicate similar
parts.
Referring to Figure 1 it will be seen that in the form of pipe there represented,
the mouth-piece a is provided with two passages bc which unite to form a single
passage d opening into the mouth of the smoker.
The passage b is continued along the pipe stem e and opens into the bowl f of the
pipe, whilst the passage c terminates in a reservoir g formed in a tube h which is
integral with the bowl. The reservoir g does not communicate with the bowl f; it
does not serve as an aspiratory passage and is not one with the passage b.
This reservoir g receives and isolates the products of the condensation of the smoke
and, if necessary, the saliva, since it communicates by the passages c and d with the
mouth of the smoker.
In the form of pipe represented in Figure 2 of the drawing, the reservoir
communicates with the bowlf through a passage i but is not in communication with
the mouth of the smoker, the passage c not being provided in this case.
reservoir receives and isolates the products of the combustion of the tobacco.
It will of course be understood that the independent reservoir above described may
be applied to pipes of all forms and dimensions no matter of what material they are
made.

page_text: In the same way, the forms, dimensions and substances employed in constructing
pipes according to my invention, may vary, without thereby in any way affecting the
principle of my. said invention.

Improvements in Tobacco Pipes.
I, GASTON GRANDCLÉMENT, of Saint-Claude (Jura) in the Republic of France
Tobacco-pipe Manufacturer, do hereby declare the nature of this invention and in
what manner the same is to be performed, to be particularly described and
ascertained in and by the following statement:—
This invention relates to a pipe having an independent reservoir, arranged in such
a manner as to receive and isolate the products of the condensation of the smoke,
and, if necessary, the saliva, as well as the products of the combustion of the
tobacco.
In order that my invention may be readily understood, I have represented by way
of example in the drawing left with my Provisional Specification two forms of my
reservoir pipe.
Figure 1 represents a longitudinal vertical section through a pipe the reservoir
of which does not communicate with the bowl.
Figure 2 represents a longitudinal vertical section through a pipe the reservoir
of which cominunicates with the bowl..
In these two figures the same letters of reference designate the same parts.
Referring to Figure 1 of the drawing it will be seen that in the form of pipe there
represented, the mouth-piece a is provided with two passages b c which unite to
form a single passage d opening into the mouth of the smoker.
The passage b is continued along the pipe stem e and opens into the bowl f of
the pipe, whilst the passage c terminates in a reservoir g formed in a tube h which
is integral with the bowl. The reservoir g does not communicate with the bowl f;
it does not serve as a suction channel and is not in one with the passage b.
This reservoir g receives and isolates the products of the condensation of the smoke
and, if necessary, the saliva, since it communicates by the passages c and d with the
mouth of the smoker. When suction is taking place a vacuum is created in the
hollow stem g, as a result the smoke enters the same, is there cooled and deposits a
portion of the injurious products. This smoke is thus milder and cooler.
In the form of pipe represented in Figure 2 of the drawing, the reservoir g
communicates with the bowlf through a passage i but is not in communication with
the mouth of the sinoker, the passage c not being provided in this case. This
reservoir receives and isolates the products of the combustion of the tobacco.
It will of course be understood that the independent reservoir above described,
may be applied to pipes of all forms, dimensions and of any material whatever.
In the same way, the forms, dimensions and materials employed in constructing
pipes according to my invention, may be varied without in any way affecting the
principle of my invention.
Having now particularly described and ascertained the nature of my said
invention and in what manner the same is to be performed, I declare that what
I claim is :-
An improved tobacco pipe with independent reservoir the characteristic feature

page_text: consisting in so arranging a reservoir g in the stem has to collect therein the
products arising from the combustion of the smoke, which products are passed into
said reservoir by way of the conduit c combined with the smoke conduit b and the
conduit which latter terminates at the end of the mouth piece the whole being
arranged and combined as above described with reference to the drawing, and for
the purpose specified.
