  • Patent number: 4570647
    Abstract: A cigarette extinguisher designed to be secured more specifically over an automobile ash-tray. A cigarette-receiving tube is pivotally supported between the upright legs of a U-shape support for movement between a cigarette-extinguishing position and an extinguished cigarette-discharging position. The discharge end of the tube is bevelled and lies flat against the bight portion of the support in cigarette-extinguishing position, so as to close the tube. Once the cigarette is snuffed out, the tube is simply pivoted to a more inclined position, so that the extinguished cigarette will clear the bight portion and drop into the underlying ash-tray. A securing device is designed to fix the extinguisher in a plurality of positions to an ash-tray of the automobile type, depending on the shape of the ash-tray.
