  • Patent number: 5377696
    Abstract: A device which makes it possible to smoke the same cigarette several times by cutting and snuffing burning tobacco from the end of the cigarette, leaving a cigarette butt that can be smoked again. The devices uses a blade (24) and a snuffer (26), movable in a housing attachable to a tray (12) to hold a cigarette. The burning end of a cigarette is inserted into an opening in the blade and snuffer housing through which said blade and snuffer are reciprocally movable. Said blade cuts through the cigarette and detaches the burning tobacco from the cigarette, leaving the butt reconditioned for smoking again. Said snuffer is a bar which snuffs the burning tobacco cut from the end of the cigarette by pressing it against a flange (16) of the housing.
