The cover is provided with air inlet holes, and an opening is provided in the top surface of the water bottle, and thus an enclosed space is formed by the cover and the water bottle. The cut tobacco burning device is provided in the enclosed space and is fixed at the opening of the water bottle by connecting elements. When in use, water is firstly filled in the water bottle, and then the cut tobacco placed in the cut tobacco burning device is lit and the cover is placed. A smoker begins smoking through the smoking hose. Smoke produced by the burning of the cut tobacco in the cut tobacco burning device is discharged through a smoke filtering tube and is then filtered through water and discharged through the smoking hose.Type: GrantFiled: November 14, 2008Date of Patent: January 29, 2013Assignee: Guangzhou Zhaoying Hardware Co., Ltd.Inventor: Lubin Zhao

Publication number: 20120255566Abstract: The various embodiments herein provide an air suction device for a smoking apparatus. The air suction device comprises a cylindrical housing, an impeller, an impeller cover, a motor assembled inside the housing to drive the impeller, a plurality of batteries provided in the housing, a battery cover to enclose the plurality of batteries and a switch provided externally to the cylindrical housing. When the switch is in ON condition, the plurality of batteries supply an electrical power to the motor and the motor converts the electrical power into a mechanical power which in turn causes propulsion of the impeller thereby sucking out the air from a water bowl of the smoking apparatus. The propulsive motion of the impeller sucks out the air from the water bowl until the air inside the water bowl is replaced by condensed smoke.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 11, 2011Publication date: October 11, 2012Inventors: Mohammad Mahdi Shakouri Moghadam, Mohammad Javad Shakouri Moghadam

Publication number: 20120180803Abstract: The present invention relates to a modular smoke plenum that can be implemented in a hookah, pipe or other smoking device. The modular plenum according to embodiments of the invention features multiple modules or components that may be rearranged in any order, allowing for interchanging and rearranging of the components. Each module may have a specific purpose or functionality, such as cooling, filtering, or extending the length of the device. A standardized interface on each end of the modules allows for connection of the modules in any order to construct a modular plenum. This provides for unlimited rearrangement of the modules, an unlimited number of modules in the plenum, and unlimited reconfiguration possibilities for the modular plenum. By changing the functionality of the plenum and/or the order in which the smoke passes through the different functions, a different smoking experience can be achieved without using a completely different device.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 19, 2012Publication date: July 19, 2012Inventor: Evan Christopher Beloni
