Patent Application
20240148045
The present invention relates generally to substance inhalatory systems and methods, and more specifically, to a rectangular loose-leaf system that provides premium polygonal sections of flora that are able to roll and combust in a ready-to-use format.
Inhalatory systems are well known in the art and are effective means to prepare and facilitate the ingestion of smoke that results from the combustion of a material selected to be combusted and inhaled. Common inhalatory systems include cigarettes, cigars, vaporizers, and the like. For example, cigars are formed from rolled tobacco leaves. The leaves have stems and other deformities from when they are grown.
One of the problems associated with common inhalatory systems is their limited efficiency. For example, the stems and deformities in the tobacco leaves alter the combustion of the cigar and result in unwanted tastes, scents, ash, and residue that lower the experience of the cigar and thereby its efficiency.
Accordingly, although great strides have been made in the area of inhalatory systems, many shortcomings remain.
The novel features believed characteristic of the embodiments of the present application are set forth in the appended claims. However, the embodiments themselves, as well as a preferred mode of use, and further objectives and advantages thereof, will best be understood by reference to the following detailed description when read in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, wherein:
While the system and method of use of the present application is susceptible to various modifications and alternative forms, specific embodiments thereof have been shown by way of example in the drawings and are herein described in detail. It should be understood, however, that the description herein of specific embodiments is not intended to limit the invention to the particular embodiment disclosed, but on the contrary, the intention is to cover all modifications, equivalents, and alternatives falling within the spirit and scope of the present application as defined by the appended claims.
Illustrative embodiments of the system and method of use of the present application are provided below. It will of course be appreciated that in the development of any actual embodiment, numerous implementation-specific decisions will be made to achieve the developer's specific goals, such as compliance with system-related and business-related constraints, which will vary from one implementation to another. Moreover, it will be appreciated that such a development effort might be complex and time-consuming, but would nevertheless be a routine undertaking for those of ordinary skill in the art having the benefit of this disclosure.
The system and method of use in accordance with the present application overcomes one or more of the above-discussed problems commonly associated with conventional inhalatory systems. Specifically, the present invention provides rollable tobacco sheets that are free of stems and defects. These and other unique features of the system and method of use are discussed below and illustrated in the accompanying drawings.
The system and method of use will be understood, both as to its structure and operation, from the accompanying drawings, taken in conjunction with the accompanying description. Several embodiments of the system are presented herein. It should be understood that various components, parts, and features of the different embodiments may be combined together and/or interchanged with one another, all of which are within the scope of the present application, even though not all variations and particular embodiments are shown in the drawings. It should also be understood that the mixing and matching of features, elements, and/or functions between various embodiments is expressly contemplated herein so that one of ordinary skill in the art would appreciate from this disclosure that the features, elements, and/or functions of one embodiment may be incorporated into another embodiment as appropriate, unless described otherwise.
The preferred embodiment herein described is not intended to be exhaustive or to limit the invention to the precise form disclosed. It is chosen and described to explain the principles of the invention and its application and practical use to enable others skilled in the art to follow its teachings.
Referring now to the drawings wherein like reference characters identify corresponding or similar elements throughout the several views,
In the contemplated embodiment, system 101 includes a container 103 that holds a cover 105 with loose-leaf sheets 107 therein.
Referring to
The sheet 215 is removed as depicted by motion C and additional sheets are cut from the leaf 201. When no more sheets can be cut therefrom the remnants are discarded and any subsequent leaves are cut in the same way. When a number of sheets 215 are collected to form a stack 217 in preparation to be stored. The stack 217 is placed in a cover 105 that protects the outside of the stack 217 and both are placed in a container 103 as depicted by motion E. The container 103 is closed and sealed for freshness.
The stack 217 is then removed and a number of the sheets 215 are separated and rolled to form a cigar, cigarette, or the like.
It should be appreciated that one of the unique features believed characteristic of the present application is that the loose-leaf sheets 215 are free of defects and stems so that the combustion is optimal.
In the preferred embodiment the sheets 215 are cut by a stamp or cutter 213. It is contemplated that a guide, mold, or the like could be used to facilitate the cut but hand with a knife, blade or scissors. Also, that the sheet 215 could be formed solely by hand.
Referring now to
The particular embodiments disclosed above are illustrative only, as the embodiments may be modified and practiced in different but equivalent manners apparent to those skilled in the art having the benefit of the teachings herein. It is therefore evident that the particular embodiments disclosed above may be altered or modified, and all such variations are considered within the scope and spirit of the application. Accordingly, the protection sought herein is as set forth in the description. Although the present embodiments are shown above, they are not limited to just these embodiments, but are amenable to various changes and modifications without departing from the spirit thereof.
