Abstract

A connectable cigarette filter comprises a mouthpiece and a plurality of, or one to two, or two to three filter units connected with the mouthpiece. The mouthpiece is an inclined cylindrical body centrally provided with a stepped aperture. The stepped aperture has a front section formed as a sloped cavity. The inclined cylindrical body has a rear section whose outer surface is provided with a pair of planes. The filter unit is a stepped cylindrical body with a stepped through-hole comprising a large-diameter through-hole and a small-diameter through-hole. The front section of the stepped through-hole is formed as a sloped counterbore. The stepped cylindrical body has a rear section formed as a small-diameter, sloped cylindrical body which is shaped and sized according to the sloped counterbore, so that the small-diameter, sloped cylindrical body of one filter unit is insertable into the sloped counterbore of another filter unit.
