BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
According to Caroline Cobb, “Water pipe tobacco smoking is a centuries-old tobacco use method with an ambiguous origin and links to the countries of southwest Asia and North Africa. Although known by many different names (e.g., hookah, narghile, shisha), the term water pipe has been used for the last 2 decades in the English language scientific literature to refer to any of a variety of instruments that involve passing tobacco smoke through water before inhalation.”
The present invention is a device use to filter and cool tobacco smoke. The device burns dry tobacco and then cools and cleans the smoke before it is carried to the user. The present device also facilitates a magnetic connected grinder and a wireless Bluetooth speaker.
The present invention is in the technical field of water filter pipes, more particularly, the present invention is in the technical field of tobacco and Cannabis smoking pipes.
Traditional water pipes that are used by tobacco smokers do not clean the tobacco smoke completely because the water is still. Although conventional water pipes help filter out dense ash debris, there are still many micro-carcinogens, as well as tar that still reach the users lungs.
Because most tobacco water pipes use “still” water, the pipe holds most of the toxins, and also becomes contaminated more often, which results in decrease filtering efficiency. Traditional water pipes can come in a variety of different shapes but most are usually made with glass which is very fragile and easy to break. In addition to shape, traditional tobacco water pipes are made with a large apparatus and stem-bowl design. The design allows the users to burn the tobacco in the bowl near the bottom of the pipe, however the users has to lean over to positon their mouth over the apparatus which results in more difficult toke. Hookah style pipes are very smooth and simple to use from a design aspect. While hookah smoke is less irritating to the throat, it still contains tar, carbon monoxide and nicotine. It has been shown that the smoothness of the hookah smoke actually encourages users to inhale more deeply and use for a longer period of time causing greater exposure to harmful elements.(cesar.umd.edu)
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
The present invention uses an electric motor and fan in the body of the device which creates a spinning vortex or cyclone in the water. The vortex subsequently cleans and filters the smoke or vapor rapidly and efficiently all while keeping the content in the bowl lit. This process results from a small motor which spins a fan breaking the surface tension of the water and diffusing the smoke through the water rapidly. The present invention also includes a spinning percolator which helps cool down the smoke by creating tiny bubbles through pores located on the side of the percolator which results in the smoke being cooled and filtered, to deliver a smooth toke to the user.
The present device includes an aerator design mouthpiece which delivers the tobacco smoke perpendicular to the user by channeling the smoke through a line of holes around the end of the stem. This allows for gaseous material to flow through while leaving larger particles such as tar behind in the bowl of the mouthpiece before inhalation. This process results in tar reduction by distributing the tar on the outer rim of the mouthpiece. This helps decrease tar stains on the user's lips and lungs.
The present invention is a device used to filter and cool tobacco smoke. The invention features a motorized fan which spins the water in the chamber, and as the smoke passes through the body of the device and into the water the smoke is filtered and cooled rapidly. The invention facilitates a rotating percolator which creates small bubbles in the water thus cooling the smoke further before it is delivered to the user's lungs.

A copper reducing pipe-7 connected to a 2 inch cut copper riser pipe with bowl-8. The copper pipe with bowl-8 is secured to top of the cocktail mixer by a rubber Grommet-10. There is shown in FIG. 1 component-15 a small fan blade which is secured to a small electric motor inside the present invention.
Referring now to FIG. 2, There is shown the top portion of the invention-1 which is connected to an aluminum grinder with two ceramic circle magnets-2 and 3. One magnet-3 is secured to the bottom of the grinder by a 3 inch diameter metal hole plug-4. The magnet-3 couples the top of the invention to the bottom of the grinder by a second ceramic magnet-2 magnetically. Component 5, 6 and 7 are screwed in together as a three stage grinder.
There is shown in FIG. 3 the apparatus and mouthpiece coupled together. The copper apparatus is bent in a curve design and is connected together by two ¾ coupling pipes-3 and 4
secured by a rubber grommet-2 inside the top of the invention. The apparatus-1 is join to
the mouthpiece pipe-7 by a 90 degree angle copper connector pipe. The mouthpiece bowl-8 is joined with the mouthpiece pipe-7 by screwing it into the mouthpiece housing unit-9. A carb release hole-6 is optional for air release on the back of the mouthpiece housing unit-9.
Now referring to FIG. 4. of the present invention, there in shown the base of the pipe which is a Bluetooth wireless speaker-3. The housing unit-2 facilitates the Bluetooth speaker-3 inside the base of the pipe. The base is connected to the pipe by a ceramic magnet-1 to another ceramic magnet located under the pipes battery unit. The FIG. 5 bottom view of the magnetic Bluetooth speaker-1 and the housing unit-2. FIG. 6 is the top view of the Bluetooth speaker, the Bluetooth speaker is secure to the ceramic magnet-2 by a steel rivet screw-1 and secure with a steel nut-3 and ½ inch rubber grommet-4.
Referring now to FIG. 11 of the present invention, here shown is an improvement upon FIG. 4 the Bluetooth speaker base. The Housing unit-8 facilitates the Bluetooth speaker-7 inside the housing unit-8 and to the base of the filtration device shown in FIG. 6.1. The base of the filteration device facilitates by a 50 lb ceramic pull magnet (FIGS. 6.1-1) which is connected to another 50 lb ceramic pull magnet (FIG. 11-1) at the top of the housing unit-8 secured by an ⅜ threaded post and screw (FIG. 11-2).

A 3.1 cm×0.95 cm×0.48 cm ceramic magnet (FIG. 11-6) is connected to the top of the Bluetooth speaker-7 via weld or glue or any method combining two materials together. The 50 lb pull ceramic magnet-2 connects to the ceramic magnet (6.1-1) on the base of the filtration device (FIG. 6.1). The smaller ceramic magnet (FIG. 11-5) inside the housing unit-8 connects to the ceramic magnet (FIG. 11-6) on top of the Bluetooth speaker-7 and facilitates the Bluetooth speaker-7 inside of the housing unit-8 via magnetism. When the magnet inside the housing connects with the magnet on the Bluetooth speaker it creates a magnetic bond which holds the speaker in place securely in the housing unit and to the base of the invention.
In more detail, referring to the invention in FIG. 7. The process starts in the bowl-11 of the invention, when the tobacco is lite and forms a gas the pre-filtered gaseous material passes from the bowl-11 down through the stem-4 and into the water. Component-6 in FIG. 7 is a fan blade which is connected to a small electric motor-22 located in the base-21 of the present invention. As the pre-filtered gaseous material passes through the copper reducer pipe-5 it is rapidly filtered and cooled by the spinning fan blades-6 (There are two fans used in this process). The spinning fan blades-6 rapidly separates the non-polar gaseous material from the polarized gaseous material via water diffusion. As the lite non-polarized gaseous material travels upward through the water, the dense polarized gaseous material is left in the water where it is swept under the fan and held there by the vacuum force of the cyclone.
The lite non-polarized gaseous material rise up through the water and into the percolator-7.
The percolator-7 is spun by the turbulence of the fan blade-6, which results in the lite nonpolarized gaseous material being cooled further by tiny slits located on the side of the percolator-7.
Still referring to FIG. 7, the now cooled non-polarized gaseous material is pulled up and through the copper apparatus which is connected by components-12,13,14,15,16,17. As the material passes through the apparatus, the cooled non-polarized gaseous material is then dispense into the mouthpiece of the device through aligned hole around end of the mouthpiece pipe-20. When the material is dispense in the mouthpiece, it makes contact with the side of the mouthpiece bowl-19 and any tar-18 or remaining heavy carcinogens and debris-18 are reduced by this process because they accumulate around the mouthpiece instead of the users lips and lungs. The ending process results in a smooth, cooled and filtered toke delivered to the user. This process also helps keeps the bowl-11 lite as air is pulled through the bowl-11 and into the device by the fan blade-6. The process of the device is powered by two triple-A batteries located in the base of the device 21 and is started by a push button switch-23.
The construction details of the invention as shown in FIG. 7 are that the device be made of metal, glass, plastic or wood or of any other sufficiently rigid and strong material. Further, the various components of the device in FIG. 7 can be made of different materials.
Referring now to FIG. 8 is shown an alternate version of the device. The body-4 of the present invention is aligned with a 8 inch copper stem pipe-5 and the pipe is secured with a 2½ inch flask funnel. There is an electric push button switch-8 which turns the fan of the invention on. The copper stem bowl-3 holds the dry mix and allows for gaseous material to flow through. The apparatus-2 is connected to a plastic mouthpiece-1.
The advantages of the present invention include, without limitation, efficient and cool filtering for smoking. The invention cleans, and cools smoke faster and continuously better than a conventional water pipe or hookah. The invention helps reduce the amount of tar and carcinogens that are received from the smoke. The invention facilitates a magnetic connected grinder, so the user will have an easy place to store any contents inside of the grinder. The invention also facilitates a magnetic connected Bluetooth speaker to listen to music and other audio content while smoking. The magnetic connected design makes it easy for the user to take their device, grinder and music on the go.
