ABSTRACT:
The present invention relates to a smoking apparatus including a rotatably mounted liquid piston assembly that acts to pump air and resulting smoke through material being held or supported by the apparatus as the liquid piston assembly is manually turned in half turn intervals. The liquid piston assembly comprises two opposed compartments communicatively open with respect to each other in order that a liquid contained therein may move or gravitate from one compartment to the other as the respective compartments are rotated. After each half turn, liquid will gravitate from an upper oriented compartment to a lower oriented compartment and as the liquid gravitates a vacuum is created within the upper oriented compartment causing smoke to be pulled within that compartment. Further, the gravitating liquid will effectively force smoke received in the preceding half cycle from the lower oriented compartment through an exhaust valve associated with the liquid piston assembly. Thus, during each half turn or half cycle, one compartment is filled with smoke while the smoke already contained in the other compartment is exhausted.
