Pulverized Leaf Cigarette Structure

Abstract

A pulverized leaf cigarette structure consisting of a smokable cylinder that is made of one hundred-percent (100%) pulverized leaf, such as tobacco or cannabis . Means for applying pressure facilitates a quantity of pulverized leaf to be formed into a cylinder with significant structure integrity. Once the pulverized leaf is within the means for applying pressure to the pulverized leaf is compressed into the cylinder shape. The pulverized leaf cylinder is then removed from the means for applying pressure and can be smoked.

         2 . The pulverized leaf cigarette structure of  claim 1 , wherein the PLCS is made entirely of pulverized leaf with no additives or chemicals. 
     
     
         3 . The pulverized leaf cigarette structure as specified in  claim 1 , wherein said pulverized leaf is comprised of tobacco. 
     
     
         4 . The pulverized leaf cigarette structure as specified in  claim 1 , wherein said pulverized leaf is comprised of  cannabis.    
     
     
         5 . A pulverized leaf cigarette structure (PLCS) that is made entirely of pulverized leaf, without a paper wrapper or covering surrounding the pulverized leaf or the inclusion of additives or chemicals to the pulverized lea the PLCS comprised of:
 a quantity of pulverized leaf,   means for applying pressure having an opening, and   a center rod, the pulverized leaf is inserted into the means for applying pressure via the opening, the rod is inserted into the substantial center of the pulverized leaf within the means for applying pressure and pressure is applied, the center rod is extracted and a solid structural maintained smokable cylinder of pulverized is removed for the means for applying pressure.   
     
     
         6 . The pulverized leaf cigarette structure of  claim 5 , wherein said pulverized leaf is comprised of tobacco. 
     
     
         7 . The pulverized leaf cigarette structure of  claim 5 , wherein said pulverized leaf is comprised of  cannabis.    
     
     
         8 . The pulverized leaf cigarette structure of  claim 5 , wherein the means for applying pressure is configured for manual operation. 
     
     
         9 . The pulverized leaf cigarette structure of  claim 5 , wherein the means for applying pressure is configured for automatic, pulverized operation. 
     
     
         10 . The pulverized leaf cigarette structure of  claim 5 , wherein the means for applying pressure is comprise of a press device. 
     
     
         11 . The pulverized leaf cigarette structure of  claim 5 , wherein the means for applying pressure is comprised of a squeeze device. 
     
     
         12 . The pulverized leaf cigarette structure of  claim 5 , further comprising a funnel that is utilized to insert the pulverized leaf into the opening, wherein the funnel extends upward from the opening and is integrally attached to the means for applying pressure or is a separate component. 
     
     
         13 . The pulverized leaf cigarette structure of  claim 5 , further comprising a mouthpiece that is configured to fit into sand be frictionally maintained on one end of the pulverized leaf cylinder. 
     
     
         14 . The pulverized leaf cigarette structure of  claim 5 , further comprising a screen having a mesh of a selectable size through which the pulverized leaf passes to selectively control the sim and uniformity of the pulverized leaf. 
     
     
         15 . The pulverized leaf cigarette structure of  claim 5 , further comprising heating means that produces heat that is applied to the pulverized leaf that is inside the means for applying pressure, wherein the heat functions to harden the leaf, thereby producing a cylinder with a hard outer surface. 
     
     
         16 . The pulverized leaf cigarette structure of  claim 5 , further comprising heating means that produces heat that is applied to the pulverize leaf structure after removal from the means for applying pressure, wherein the heat functions to harden the leaf, thereby producing a cylinder with a hard outer surface. 
     
     
         17 . A method for producing a pulverized leaf cigarette structure comprising the following steps:
 acquire a quantity of pulverized leaf,   grind pulverized leaf to a uniform consistently,   place pulverized leaf through a mesh screen for uniform size,   pour pulverize leaf into hopper in an extruding apparatus or a pressure applying means,   place a weighed amount of extruded pulverize leaf into an extruding apparatus or pressure applying means with geometric shaped openings,   place polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) or metal rod into substantial center of pulverized leaf surrounding the rod,   place a cap over a center opening sleeve that is inserted into or onto the extruding apparatus or pressure applying means to eliminate pulverized leaf from spilling out,   apply pressure to pulverized leaf to compress lea,   place compressed leaf in a heating means to harden structure, and   apply mouthpiece filter to one end of structure.   
     
     
         18 . The pulverized leaf cigarette structure of  claim 17 , wherein the pulverized leaf is comprised of tobacco or  cannabis.    
     
     
         19 . The pulverized leaf cigarette structure of  claim 17  wherein the heating means is comprised of an oven.
