Improvements connected with Pipes for Smoking.
I, JOSHUA MICHAEL JACOBS, of 6 Castle Street, Falcon Square, in the City of
London, Manager, do hereby declare the nature of this invention which has been
communicated to me from abroad by Messrs. W. B. Haas & Co. 64 Rue
d'Hauteville, Paris, France, Pipe Manufacturers, and in what manner the same is
to be performed to be particularly described and ascertained in and by the
following statement :—
The object of this invention is a new construction of reservoir pipe and consists
essentially of the application or employment of a tube or stem and mouthpiece
formed of one single piece, the stem portion passing through the bottom of the
bowl from one side to the other without any screw or joint whatever, excepting at
the nicotine reservoir which consolidates the whole together by fitting on to that
end of the tube or stem which is opposite to that forming the mouthpiece.
In order that the invention may be clearly understood I have shown the con-
struction in the annexed drawings but merely by way of example and by reference
to the drawings in the following description.
Figure shows the general arrangement of this simple combined stem and
mouthpiece and nicotine reservoir f.
Figure 2 shows an exterior view of the bowl c and its bottom piece b.
Figure 3 shows a pipe in which my invention is affixed also the nicotine
reservoir.
In all the figures the same letters of reference denote the same parts.
It will be seen in these drawings that the whole of the construction or system.
of the pipe consists in a single tube or stem a Figure 1, the part of said tube
which passes through the tube or bottom piece of the bowl c is slightly conical or
tapered. The stem or tube a has a hole at that portion of its length corre-.
sponding with the hole in the bowl, so that the two holes will come opposite cach
other for the passage of the smoke.
C
It will be observed that as the bottom piece of the bowl is of uniform diameter
throughout its length whilst the tube is tapered it is not necessary that the
holes d and e should exactly correspond to ensure the free draw of the pipe; and
in Figure 3 is shown more clearly that surrounding the tube or stem a is a free
space or chamber by which communication between the two holes is always.
ensured.
The tube a is fixed by friction, it is sufficiently long to pass out a certain length
beyond the bottom piece of the bowl e and is screw threaded on the exterior for
the reception or affixture of the nicotine reservoir which is screwed on to the
projecting end of the tube or stem a and forms a water tight joint.
I have referred to the stem a and the mouthpiece as composed of a single piece
but the projecting portion of the stem may if desired have a detachable mouth-
piece and form a continuation of the stem a the stem a being inserted into the
bottom piece of the bowl and held by friction and by the nicotine reservoir / as
previously described.
f
Having now particularly described and ascertained the nature of this inven-.
tion and in what manner the same is to be performed I declare that what I
claim is:-
1. The construction (system) of reservoir pipe, in which the chief feature is the
long tube or stem a and mouthpiece as a single piece, the stem passing through
the bottom nioco & of this bowl andd fd

shown in the annexed drawings.
2. The tapered yet hollow stem a with mouthpiece as part of same or affixable
thereto and its application as set forth to a reservoir pipe used for smoking.
