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:-
The invention which forms the subject of the present application for patent
relates to a tobacco-pipe having a double reservoir.
My invention consists in the arrangement of two concentric tubes constituting.
the stem of the tobacco pipe: the interior tube receives and isolates the products
of condensation of the smoke (nicotine and the like) and if necessary the saliva,
and the exterior tube serves also as a reservoir.
This arrangement enables me to obtain the cooling of the smoke which, passing
from. the two orifices at the bottom of the bowl, circulates round the central reser-
voir before entering the same in order to pass into the mouthpiece and into the
mouth of the smoker.
Moreover the mounting of the mouth-piece upon the stem of the pipe is obtained.
in a rapid and firm manner; from this it follows that the tightening is perfect
and light, so that the smoker can very easily take his pipe to pieces and mount it
again, either for the purpose of emptying the contents of the reservoirs or effecting
the cleaning.
Such are substantially the advantages possessed by my tobacco pipe having a
double reservoir.
In order that my invention may be properly understood I have represented it by
way of example in the accompanying drawing in which
Figure 1 shows a longitudinal vertical section of, a complete tobacco-pipe
arranged according to my invention.
Figure 2 is a horizontal section of a portion of the same and
Figure 3 is a transverse section taken on the line 1-2 of Figure 1. .
In these figures the same letters of reference designate the same parts.
As will be seen in the drawing, I pierce in the bottom of the bowl a two holes b
communicating with the annular reservoir e constituted by the stem d of the pipe.
The smoke leaving the bowl passes into this reservoir c and enters through an
orifice e into the central reservoir f; the latter is in communication with the hole

page_text: in the mouth-piece g which is mounted upon the stem of the pipe by means of its
tenon h fitting between the exterior side of the reservoir f and the interior side of
the reservoir c.
The smoke can pass into the central reservoir through one or more orifices
suitably arranged, and this central reservoir may or may not form one piece with
the bowl of the pipe; it may be made of wood, glass, rubber or any other appro-
priate material, as also the stem of the pipe which may be partly of glass and
partly of any other material, and may or may not form one piece with the bowl
which may be fixed upon the stem whose exterior form may be cylindrical, square,
oval, hexagonal or the like.
It will be understood that my arrangement having a double reservoir may be
applied to tobacco-pipes of any kind, of any form and dimensions without at all
departing from the principle of my invention.

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 ascer-
tained in and by the following statement:-
The invention which forms the subject of the present application for patent
relates to a tobacco pipe having a double reservoir.
My invention consists in the arrangement of two concentric tubes constituting
the stem of the tobacco pipe the interior tube receives and isolates the products of
condensation of the smoke (nicotine and the like) and if necessary the saliva,
the exterior tube serving also as a reservoir.
This arrangement enables me to obtain the cooling of the smoke, which, passing
from the two orifices at the bottom of the bowl, circulates round the central reser-
voir before entering the same in order to pass into the mouth piece and into the
mouth of the smoker.
Moreover the mounting of the mouth-piece upon the stem of the pipe is obtained
in a rapid and firm manner, from this it follows that the tightening is perfect and
light, so that the smoker can very easily take his pipe to pieces and mount it again,
either for the purpose of emptying the contents of the reservoirs or effecting
the cleaning.
Such are substantially the advantages possessed by my tobacco pipe having a
double reservoir.
In the drawing accompanying my provisional specification, is shown how my
invention may be carried into practice.
Referring to the drawings:
Figure 1, shows a longitudinal vertical section of a complete tobacco-pipe
arranged according to my invention.
Figure 2, is a horizontal section of a portion of the same, and:
Figure 3 is a transverse section taken on the line 1, 2, of Figure 1.
In these figures like letters of reference designate the same parts.
As will be seen in the drawing, I pierce in the bottom of the bowl a two holes b
communicating with the annular reservoir c constituted by the stem of the pipe.
The smoke leaving the bowl passes in to this reservoir and enters through an

page_text: orifice e into the central reservoir, the latter being in communication with bore
in the mouth-piece g, which is mounted upon the stem of the pipe by means of its
tenon or push piece h fitting between the exterior side of the reservoir f and the
interior side of the reservoir c.
The smoke may pass into the central reservoir through one or more orifices
suitably arranged, and this central reservoir may or may not form one piece with
the bowl of the pipe: it may be made of wood, glass, rubber or any other appro-
priate material, as also the stem of the pipe which may be partly of glass and
partly of any other material, and may or may not form one piece with the bowl
which may be fixed upon the stem whose exterior form may be cylindrical, square
oval, hexagonal or the like.
It will be understood that my arrangement having a double reservoir may be
annlied to tobacco-pipes of any kind. of any form and dimensions without at all
departing from 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 he performed, I declare that what I
claim is:-
Tobacco pipes with two reservoirs and f, formed by the concentric tubes of
which the stem d of the pipe is composed, said reservoirs being in communication
by means of an aperture 'e so as to allow of the passage of the smoke coming from
the bowl a by the holes b and passing into the bore of the mouth-piece g, the whole
arranged and combined, as described with reference to the drawing and for the
purpose specified.
