ALEXANDER JAMES SHORLAND No. 2 Patricks Terrace Greenmount Cork
Copper Smith do hereby declare the nature of this invention to be as follows:-
This invention consist of a pipe with inner and intermediate bowls, with space
between each and forming three chambers the inner one or fire bowl is perforated
at bottom the intermediate one around the top edge the smoke is therefore extracted
from bottom of inner bowl passes up and out of top of the intermediate bowl and
down between this and outside bowl and out through a small projection into stem
of pipe the bore of which at this point is much larger then the outlet from bowls.
The three are connected together at bottom with a small hollow screw forming
a receptacle for oil and nicotine and for the purpose of cleaning the pipe and inner
bowls can be made of meerscham or other materials. And I claim that this pipe
will give a cool and perfectly pure smoke free from oil and nicotine.

Copper Smith 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 consist of a pipe with inside outside and intermediate bowls with
a space between forming three chambers the inner or fire bowl is perforated at the
bottom the intermediate one around the top edge the smoke is therefore extracted
from bottom of inner bowl passes up and out of the top of intermediate bowl and
down between this and outside bowl and out through a small hollow projection into
stem of pipe the three bowls are connected together at bottom with a small hollow
screw forming a receptable for oil and nicotine and for taking apart for cleaning
the pipe and inside bowls. It can be made of meerscham or any suitable materials.
And I claim that this pipe will give a cool and perfectly pure smoke free from oil
or nicotine.
This pipe consists of three bowls B. D& Friz. inner, intermediate & outer bowls
respectively. The smoke passes through the perforations P at the bottom of
inner bowl B and up through the space C between inner & intermediate bowls
then out through the perforations J at the top of intermediate bowl D and thence
it passes down through the space E and out through the bore O of the reducing
piece A and into the smoke chamber W and thence makes its final escape out
through the bore Y of the mouth piece M. Any oil or nicotine from the tobacco
which may pass through the perforations P at the bottom of inner bowl B gets
into the space C and thence passes through a small sluice K in the screw S and
into the hollow X in the screw S and may be let out by unscrewing the head N.

page_text: 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 the
features of novelty I claim for this pipe are
First. That this pipe consists of three bowls as before mentioned (viz.) inner,
intermediate & outer bowls respectively each indispensable in order to obtain a
pure smoke free from any obnoxious liquid oil or nicotine and that three bowls
cannot be found in any other known pipe.
Second. That the smoke is kept apart from the oil of the tobacco or moisture
from the mouth, because any oil from the tobacco which may pass through the
perforations P into the space C does not rest there but falls through the sluice K
and into the hollow X in the screw S. Also on account of the mouth piece M
being moveable any moisture from the mouth may be let out at any time. The
reducing piece A also prevents any moisture from the mouth from finding an
entrance into the space E occupied by smoke therefore the smoke is free from any
impure oil of the tobacco or moisture from the mouth.
Third. That the tobacco is not in any way interfered with by the moisture from
the mouth as the moisture cannot penetrate below the reducing piece A also the
intermediate bowl intervenes between the tobacco and the reducing piece A.
Fourth. That the whole pipe can be taken apart for the purpose of cleaning
(viz.) by unscrewing the inner bowl B the intermediate bowl D can be taken out
and give an opportunity of cleaning the outside bowl F. Also the reducing
piece A being moveable the smoke chamber W can be cleaned as also the mouth
piece M.
Fifth. On account of the distance the smoke has to travel before it reaches the
mouth it must necessarily give a cool & delightful smoke. This pipe can be made
of meerscham or any other suitable material and I claim that this pipe will give
cool and perfectly pure smoke free from oil or nicotine.
