Storage Containers, Products, and Methods of Packing a Smokable Product

Abstract

Storage containers, products, and methods of packing a smoking product are described. An example storage container has a main body that has a first end, a second end, a lengthwise axis, a width, and defines a chamber and an indicium. The lengthwise axis has a midpoint. Each of the first end and second end is moveable from a sealed configuration to an unsealed configuration. The width of the main body tapers from the second end toward the first end. The indicium is defined at a location between the midpoint of the lengthwise axis and the first end and extends along a portion of the width of the main body. The main body has a first width at the location between the midpoint of the lengthwise axis and the first end and a second width at the second end. The first width is less than the second width.

         5 . The product of  claim 2 , wherein the wire member is dispose within the passageway. 
     
     
         6 . The product of  claim 2 , wherein the smokable sheet of material is formed of a naturally occurring material. 
     
     
         7 . The product of  claim 2 , wherein the wire member is formed of a naturally occurring material. 
     
     
         8 . The product of  claim 2 , wherein the wire member is formed of stainless steel. 
     
     
         9 . The product of  claim 2 , further comprising a filter defining a filter passageway. 
     
     
         10 . The product of  claim 9 , wherein the smokable sheet of material is partially disposed within the filter passageway. 
     
     
         11 . The product of  claim 2 , further comprising a storage container;
 wherein the smokable sheet of material and wire member are disposed within the storage container.   
     
     
         12 . The product of  claim 2 , wherein the wire member is straight. 
     
     
         13 . The product of  claim 2 , wherein the smokable sheet of material forms a substantially conical smokable product. 
     
     
         14 . A smokable product comprising:
 a smokable sheet of material having a first end, a second end, a length extending from the first end to the second end, a width, and defining a conical passageway for disposing a smokable material, the width tapering along the length; and   a wire member positioned on the smokable sheet of material;   wherein the wire member is positioned on the smokable sheet of material prior to forming the conical passageway or subsequent to forming the conical passageway.   
     
     
         15 . The product of  claim 14 , wherein the width tapers along the entire length. 
     
     
         16 . The product of  claim 14 , wherein the wire member is dispose within the conical passageway. 
     
     
         17 . The product of  claim 14 , wherein the smokable sheet of material is formed of a naturally occurring material. 
     
     
         18 . The product of  claim 14 , wherein the wire member is formed of a naturally occurring material. 
     
     
         19 . The product of  claim 14 , wherein the wire member is formed of stainless steel. 
     
     
         20 . The product of  claim 14 , further comprising a storage container;
 wherein the smokable sheet of material and wire member are disposed within the storage container.   
     
     
         21 . A smokable product comprising:
 a smokable sheet of material formed of a naturally occurring material and having a first end, a second end, a length extending from the first end to the second end, a width, and defining a conical passageway for disposing a smokable material, the width tapering along the length; and   a wire member positioned on the smokable sheet of material and within the conical passageway;   wherein the wire member is positioned on the smokable sheet of material prior to forming the conical passageway or subsequent to forming the conical passageway.
