Abstract

A device for use in connection with a water pipe or bong, which includes a tube and an opening in connection with the tube via which a user may draw smoke from the bong into the user's mouth, includes a body including a first section configured to form a removable, sealed connection with the opening. The first section includes at least one port to place the first section in fluid connection with the bong. The device further includes a second section connected to the first section and a plurality of extending rigid tubes. A first end of each of the plurality of extending rigid tubes is configured to be placed in fluid connection with the second section to be placed in fluid connection with the at least one port. A second end of each of the plurality of extending rigid tubes includes an opening via which a user may draw smoke from the bong into the user's mouth.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . A device for use in connection with a water pipe or bong including a tube and an opening in connection with the tube via which a user may draw smoke from the bong into the user's mouth, comprising:
 a body comprising a first section configured to form a removable, sealed connection with the opening, the first section comprising at least one port to place the first section in fluid connection with the bong, and a second section connected to the first section, and a plurality of extending rigid tubes, a first end of each of the plurality of extending rigid tubes being configured to be placed in operative connection with the second section to be placed in fluid connection with the at least one port, and a second end of each of the plurality of extending rigid tubes comprising an opening via which the user may draw smoke from the bong into the user's mouth.   
     
     
         2 . The device of  claim 1  wherein the second section comprises a chamber therein which is in fluid connection with the at least one port of the first section and the first end of each of the plurality of extending rigid tubes is in fluid connection with the chamber. 
     
     
         3 . The device of  claim 1  wherein the first section comprises a plurality of ports and the first end of each of the plurality of extending rigid tubes is configured to be placed in fluid connection with a unique one of the plurality of ports. 
     
     
         4 . The device of  claim 3  wherein one or more of the plurality of extending rigid tubes is removably connectible to the second section. 
     
     
         5 . The device of  claim 4  wherein each of the plurality of extending rigid tubes is removably connectible to the second section. 
     
     
         6 . The device of  claim 1  wherein the first section is configured to form a sealed connection with bongs of varying size. 
     
     
         7 . The device of  claim 6  wherein the first section comprises a plurality of sealing flanges of differing diameter wherein the sealing flanges increase in diameter from a lower end of the first section to an upper end of the first section. 
     
     
         8 . The device of  claim 1  wherein the body comprises glass, a polymeric material, or silicone. 
     
     
         9 . The device of  claim 8  wherein the body comprises silicone. 
     
     
         10 . The device of  claim 7  wherein each of the plurality of extending rigid tubes comprises a polymeric material. 
     
     
         11 . The device of  claim 4  wherein the one or more of the plurality of extending rigid tubes includes a tortuous path between the second end and the first end thereof. 
     
     
         12 . The device of  claim 4  wherein the one or more of the plurality of extending rigid tubes includes a filter between the second end and the first end thereof. 
     
     
         13 . The device of  claim 4  comprising at least two extending rigid tubes. 
     
     
         14 . The device of  claim 4  comprising at least three extending rigid tubes. 
     
     
         15 . A system, comprising:
 a water pipe comprising a tube and an opening in connection with the tube via which a user may draw smoke from the water pipe into the user's mouth, and   a device comprising a body comprising a first section configured to form a removable, sealed connection with the opening of the water pipe, the first section comprising at least one port to place the first section in fluid connection with the water pipe, and a second section connected to the first section, and a plurality of extending rigid tubes, a first end of each of the plurality of extending rigid tubes being configured to be placed in operative connection with the second section to be placed in fluid connection with the at least one port, and a second end of each of the plurality of extending rigid tubes comprising an opening via which the user may draw smoke from the water pipe into the user's mouth.   
     
     
         16 . The system of  claim 15  wherein the first section comprises a plurality of ports and the first end of each of the plurality of extending rigid tubes is configured to be placed in fluid connection with a unique one of the plurality of ports. 
     
     
         17 . The system of  claim 16  wherein one or more of the plurality of extending rigid tubes is removably connectible to the second section. 
     
     
         18 . A method of using a water pipe including a tube and an opening in operative connection with the tube via which a user may draw smoke from the water pipe into the user's mouth, comprising: attaching a device comprising a body comprising a first section configured to form a removable, sealed connection with the opening of the water pipe, the first section comprising at least one port to place the first section in fluid connection with the water pipe, and a second section connected to the first section, and a plurality of extending rigid tubes, a first end of each of the plurality of extending rigid tubes being configured to be placed in operative connection with the second section to be placed in fluid connection with the at least one port, and a second end of each of the plurality of extending rigid tubes comprising an opening via which the user may draw smoke from the water pipe into the user's mouth. 
     
     
         19 . A water pipe, comprising:
 a tube; and   a port section formed on the end of the tube comprising one or more ports in fluid connection with the tube to which an extending rigid tube can be removably attached, a first end of the extending rigid tube being configured to be placed in fluid connection with the tube via one of the one or more ports and a second end comprising an opening via which a user may draw smoke from the water pipe into the user's mouth.   
     
     
         20 . The water pipe of  claim 19  wherein the port section comprises a plurality of ports, each of the plurality of ports is configured so that one of a plurality of extending rigid tubes can be removably attached thereto, a first end of each of the plurality of extending rigid tubes being configured to be removably attached to one of the plurality of ports to thereby be placed in fluid connection with the tube of the water pipe and a second end comprising an opening via which the user may draw smoke from the water pipe into the user's mouth.
