ABSTRACT:
A hand-held cigarette smoking device for capturing sidestream smoke with an on-board cigarette lighter. The device has a cigarette combustion chamber, a sidestream smoke filtration chamber, a plenum for conducting sidestream smoke from a lit cigarette in the combustion chamber into the sidestream smoke filtration chamber, an electric fan for drawing sidestream smoke from the combustion chamber through the plenum and into the sidestream smoke filtration chamber and a controller for the fan. The on-board cigarette lighter comprises a lighter filament, flexible wire for supplying electric current to the filament, a reciprocal mounting device for the lighter filament positioned in the combustion chamber, a detent for locating the lighter filament at predetermined cigarette positions to locate the filament at a respective cigarette tip end when inserted in the combustion chamber for smoking, the flexible wire being of a length to accommodate such position of the filament. A finger grip is provided external of the device and is connected to the detent for manually moving and locating the detent in a desired cigarette position. The on-board cigarette lighter enhances the overall efficiency of the hand-held cigarette smoking device due to lighting of the cigarette within the cigarette combustion chamber.
