Cigarette filter

Abstract

Cigarette filter with an outer housing, an inner smoke channel member, the outer housing being approximately cylindrical in shape, the outer housing having an aperture on its first end that is equivalent to the diameter of a standard cigarette, the outer housing having an aperture on the second end that is approximately one tenth of an inch in diameter, the second end also being flattened so that the end view of the second end is approximately rectangular, the interior of the outer housing capable of frictionally retaining the inner smoke channel member, the inner smoke channel member including a quarter of an inch diameter disk that is frictionally retained by the inner diameter of the outer housing, the disk including six evenly spaced radially placed apertures, the smoke channel member disk apertures being approximately three thousandths of an inch in diameter.

1 . Cigarette filter comprising:
 an outer housing;   an inner smoke channel member;   said outer housing being approximately cylindrical in shape;   said outer housing having an aperture on its first end that is equivalent to the diameter of a standard cigarette;   said outer housing having an aperture on the second end that is approximately one tenth of an inch in diameter;   said second end also being flattened so that the end view of said second end is approximately rectangular;   said interior of said outer housing capable of frictionally retaining said inner smoke channel member;   said inner smoke channel member including a quarter of an inch diameter disk that is frictionally retained by the inner diameter of said outer housing;   said disk including six evenly spaced radially placed apertures;   said smoke channel member disk apertures being approximately three thousandths of an inch in diameter;   said inner smoke channel member disk including a first centrally located post attached to said disk and directed toward the said first end of said outer housing, said first post being approximately one hundred an twenty thousandths of an inch in diameter and seventy thousandths of an inch long;   said inner smoke channel member disk including a second centrally located post attached to said disk and directed toward the said second end of said outer housing, said second post being approximately one hundred thousandths of an inch in diameter and two hundred thousandths of an inch long; and   said radially placed apertures being placed evenly along a two tenths of an inch diameter.   
   
   
       2 . Cigarette filter as claimed in  claim 1  wherein said outer housing is constructed of molded transparent plastic. 
   
   
       3 . Cigarette filter as claimed in  claim 1  wherein said smoke channel member disk is approximately forty thousandths of an inch thick. 
   
   
       4 . Cigarette filter as claimed in  claim 1  wherein said disk apertures are each funnel shaped in cross section and where the wide side of the said funnel shape is approximately forty thousandths of an inch in diameter and the narrow side is approximately three thousandths of an inch in diameter. 
   
   
       5 . Cigarette filter as claimed in  claim 1  wherein said disk is placed approximately three hundred and eighty thousandths of an inch from the said first end aperture of said outer housing. 
   
   
       6 . Cigarette filter as claimed in  claim 1  wherein said outer housing is approximately one inch in overall length. 
   
   
       7 . Cigarette filter as claimed in  claim 1  wherein when a user inhales and draws smoke from a cigarette into said outer housing and through said six disk apertures, the action of pulling said smoke through said small apertures compresses said smoke and thereby decreases the temperature of said expelled smoke causing suspended tar and nicotine residing in said smoke to be forced out of said smoke and to be deposited on the inner walls of said outer housing thereby preventing ninety percent of said tar and nicotine of said smoke from entering said user's lungs.
