TECHNICAL FIELD
The present invention relates to ashtrays and the like and more particularly to a smoking accessory that includes an externally threaded lower housing including the scented dousing liquid chamber and the butt disposal storage chamber formed separately within the lower housing; the internally, companionately threaded screw on metal, sealing cap with the dousing liquid chamber opening, the butt disposal storage opening, the sealing disk pivot fastener and a portion of the resilient sealing gasket positioned within the interior portion of the screw on sealing cap; and the resilient magnetic rubber sealing disk having a disk pivot fastener aperture, a sealing disk liquid chamber opening, and a sealing disk butt disposal storage opening; the internal companionately threading of the sealing cap be oriented such that when the sealing cap is fully threaded onto the external threads of the lower housing, the dousing liquid chamber opening is positioned over the scented dousing liquid chamber, the butt disposal storage opening is positioned over the butt disposal chamber, and the resilient sealing gasket forming a liquid tight seal separating the the scented dousing liquid chamber and the butt disposal storage chamber.
BACKGROUND ART
Cigarette smokers are typically becoming more concerned with the disposal of the cigarette butts and ashes generated from smoking. In addition, the scent of cigarette butts in a closed environment such as a car can make traveling in the car distasteful for many individuals who are non-smokers. It would be a benefit, therefore, to have a smoking accessory that included a chamber for containing a scented cigarette dousing liquid that could be used to simultaneously douse the cigarette and provide a quantity of scenting agent on the cigarette butt to mask the smell of the cigarette butt when it is stored within a sealable cigarette butt storage chamber preferably formed within the smoking accessory.
GENERAL SUMMARY DISCUSSION OF INVENTION
It is thus an object of the invention to provide a smoking accessory that includes a chamber for containing a scented cigarette dousing liquid that is used to simultaneously douse the cigarette and provide a quantity of scenting agent on the cigarette butt to mask the smell of the cigarette butt when it is stored within a sealable cigarette butt storage chamber formed within the smoking accessory.
It is a further object of the invention to provide a smoking accessory that includes an externally threaded lower housing including the scented dousing liquid chamber and the butt disposal storage chamber formed separately within the lower housing; the internally, companionately threaded screw on metal, sealing cap with the dousing liquid chamber opening, the butt disposal storage opening, the sealing disk pivot fastener and a portion of the resilient sealing gasket positioned within the interior portion of the screws on sealing cap; and the resilient magnetic rubber sealing disk having a disk pivot fastener aperture, a sealing disk liquid chamber opening, and a sealing disk butt disposal storage opening; the internal companionately threading of the sealing cap be oriented such that when the sealing cap is fully threaded onto the external threads of the lower housing, the dousing liquid chamber opening is positioned over the scented dousing liquid chamber, the butt disposal storage opening is positioned over the butt disposal chamber, and the resilient sealing gasket forming a liquid tight seal separating the the scented dousing liquid chamber and the butt disposal storage chamber.
Accordingly, a smoking accessory is provided. The smoking accessory includes an externally threaded lower housing including the scented dousing liquid chamber and the butt disposal storage chamber formed separately within the lower housing; the internally, companionately threaded screw on metal, sealing cap with the dousing liquid chamber opening, the butt disposal storage opening, the sealing disk pivot fastener and a portion of the resilient sealing gasket positioned within the interior portion of the screw on sealing cap; and the resilient magnetic rubber sealing disk having a disk pivot fastener aperture, a sealing disk liquid chamber opening, and a sealing disk butt disposal storage opening; the internal companionately threading of the sealing cap be oriented such that when the sealing cap is fully threaded onto the external threads of the lower housing, the dousing liquid chamber opening is positioned over the scented dousing liquid chamber, the butt disposal storage opening is positioned over the butt disposal chamber, and the resilient sealing gasket forming a liquid tight seal separating the the scented dousing liquid chamber and the butt disposal storage chamber.
