Improved Tobacco Pipe.
1, ARTHUR WYNDHAM MARTIN of Gorebrook House, Hyde Road, Gorton,
County of Lancaster, Surgeon, 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:-
My said invention relates to an improved tobacco pipe which I construct in such
a manner as to enable the smoke to be filtered on its way to the mouth piece and
thus to deprive it of certain deleterious matters which are detrimental to the health
of the smoker.
In order that my said invention may be clearly understood I append hereto a
sheet of drawings to which reference is hereinafter made.
Broadly my invention consists in applying to the ordinary bowl a of a pipe a
The upper
second upper bowl fitting with an air tight joint into the lower one.
bowl contains the tobacco to be consumed the smoke from which passes through
a suitable aperture or apertures through the lower bowl a on its way to the mouth.
The lower bowl is charged with any suitable filtering material such as wool, glass
wool, cotton, cut tobacco or any other suitable loose fibrous absorbent or filtering
material.
As applied to ordinary pipes the upper bowl b is conveniently attached by a
plain plug joint as shown in Fig. 1.

page_text: Where the pipe made according to my said invention is constructed to be sold in
its entirety I attach the upper bowl by a screw joint as shown in Fig. 2. In the
latter case the upper bowl projecting into the lower one provides a larger container
for the tobacco to be consumed without the total length of the pipe head being
much increased.
Having now particularly described and ascertained the nature of my sai inven-
tion and in what manner the same is to be performed I declare that what I
claim is.
1. A tobacco pipe having a lower bowl a adapted to contain filtering material
and a detachable upper bowl b to contain the tobacco to be consumed substantially
as described.
2. A stemless bowl for a tobacco pipe having a perforation in the base thereof
which is taper or plug shaped to enable it to be secured in an ordinary tobacco
pipe substantially as set forth.
3. A tobacco pipe having a lower bowl a adapted to contain filtering material
and an upper bowl 6 perforated at its lower part which extends into the lower
bowl a into which it is secured by a screw thread substantially as set forth.
