CHARLES JACKSON, of 105 Wollaton Street, Nottingham, Engineer, do hereby
declare the nature of this invention to be as follows:-
I make a hole up the centre of the mouthpiece somewhat larger than the bore
thereof into which is inserted a metal or other tube. On the outer circumference of
the mouthpiece I affix a short ferrule. The other end of each tube is extended beyond
the length of the mouthpiece and brought down and joined together into such a shape
that they should form either a screw, elongated cono or other attachment as may be
desirable to connect to the pipestem, thus obtaining a larger surface, upon which to
secure the mount to amber or other material & thereby distributing the rigid con-
nection in a greater length on the inside and at the same time encircling the outside
end of the amber. By connecting these tubes together at the extended distance of the
screw or cone an opportunity is afforded for the deflection of any irregularity between
the bore and the outer circle. A mouthpiece so mounted would be strengthened some
distance inside of the interior by the metal tube and in case of breakage the strain
would be divided over a larger area than hitherto, being supported inside and bound
on its outer circle. As shown in drawings attached, Fig. 1 shews the mouthpiece in
section, bored larger at "A" for the reception of the metal tube. "B," the part
turned down for the metal hoop. Figure 2 shews the metal mount in section "A"
the inner tube, "B," the hoop and elongated cone soldered together at "C."
Figure 3. shews an elevation of Metal Mount ready to be cemented or fixed to
mouthpiece Fig. 1.
Figure 4 is a section of a screwed mount, Figure 5 an elevation of screwed mount
on same principle as figures two and three.

page_text: I, CHARLES JACKSON, of 105 Wollaton Street, Nottingham, Engineer, do hereby
declare the nature of this invention and in what manner the same is to performed
to be particularly described and ascertained in and by the following statement :-
This invention has for its object improvements in tobacco pipes.
The usual way in fixing mouth pieces of amber and other materials to tobacco pipes
is by a metal ferrule surrounding the end of the mouth piece; the ferrule is formed
with a nozzle which fits into a corresponding socket in the stem of the pipe or a screw
thread is provided upon the ferrule corresponding to another screw within a ferrule
on the stein of the pipe.
Now when the mouth piece is held in this manner it is very liable to break if the
pipe should fall or be exposed to any violence. The object of this invention is to
lessen this risk to the mouth piece by forming the connection between the mouth piece
and the pipe in such a manner that the mouth piece is supported for a distance beyond.
the ferrule by a supporting tube connected with the ferrule and sufficiently flexible to
adapt itself to its place.
The bore of the mouthpiece is enlarged to receive this tube within it, the tube
projects from the end of the mouth piece as far as the extremity of the nozzle or the
screw of the ferrulo and here it is soldered or fixed to it. The arrangement is shown
by the annexed drawings.
DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS.
Figure 1 is a longitudinal section of an amber or other mouth piece; at a the bore
is enlarged to receive the inner tube and at b it is prepared to receive the ferrule.
Figure 2 is a longitudinal section of the ferrule with its nozzle and inner tube.
Figure 3 is an elevation of the same c is the ferrule and d is the nozzle which fits
into the corresponding socket in the stem of the pipe and e is the inner tube of a size
to fit the enlarged bore of the mouthpiece. At one end the tube e is fixed to the
extremity of the nozzlo and at the other end it is free.
Figure 4 is a longitudinal section and Figure is an elevation of a ferrule with a
screw thread and inner tube. fis the ferrule, y the screw thread projecting beyond it
and adapted to a corresponding thread in a ferrule upon the pipe stem. is the inner
tube free at one end and at the other fixed to the extremity of the piece g projecting
from the ferrule.
In consequence of the slight elasticity resulting from the attachment of the inner
tube at a distance beyond the extremity of the mouth piece it is able to adapt itself to
the bore of the mouth piece and to afford to the mouth piece an elastic support
extending to some distance from the ferrule, Thus the liability to breakage of the
mouthpiece is considerably lessened.

page_text: Paving no particularly described and ascertained the nature of my said ingen-
tion and in what manner the same is to be performed, I declare that what I
claim is :-
1. Connecting the mouth piece with the stem of a tobacco pipe by means of a
ferrule and inner tube substantially as described.
2. Connecting the mouth piece with the stem of a tobacco pipe by a ferrule and
inner tube attached the one to the other by means of a nozzle or screw extending from
the ferrule beyond the end of the mouth piece as herein set forth.
3. Connecting the mouth piece with the stem of a tobacco pipe substantially as
herein described and illustrated by the annexed drawings.
