## Abstract

Joint and blunt tips include at least one cut portion made into a corrugated section of the tip. The cut portion provides a suitable width to receive at least one flavor capsule to be nested therein. When rolled, the corrugated section of the tip forms a pattern which prevents the flavored capsule from falling out of the tip when the flavor capsule is crushed. The tip may be provided in a cylindrical tip form or a conical tip form and works with rolling machines. The cut portion may be formed in a vertical or horizontal configuration along the corrugated section of the tip. One embodiment may feature tips which include a cotton or absorbent member inserted within the cut portion nestled with the flavor capsule. Other embodiments include tips with an absorbent layer along the corrugated section to absorb the contents of the flavor capsule when crushed.

## Claims

### Claim 1

A system for a pre-rolled tip, comprising:
a. a tip assembly including a tip sheet having a corrugated section defined by a plurality of crease lines, a cutout made into said corrugated section; and
b. a capsule assembly including at least one capsule nested within said cutout, said corrugated section forming a pattern which supports said at least one capsule when said tip sheet is formed into a rolled configuration, said at least one capsule containing a liquid substance with a particular flavor therein.

### Claim 2 (depends on 1)

The system for a pre-rolled tip of claim 1 wherein said tip sheet is one of a rectangular tip sheet or a trapezoidal tip sheet, wherein said cutout is one of a horizontal cutout or a vertical cutout.

### Claim 3 (depends on 1)

The system for a pre-rolled tip of claim 1 wherein said at least one flavor capsule is enveloped within a cotton or absorbent material when nested within said cutout.

### Claim 4 (depends on 1)

The system for a pre-rolled tip of claim 1 wherein said corrugated section includes an absorbent layer.

### Claim 5 (depends on 1)

The system for a pre-rolled tip of claim 1 wherein said corrugated section is a perforated corrugated section.

### Claim 6

A pre-rolled tip, comprising:
a. a first section being a uniform flat section;
b. a second section being a foldable section with crease lines to form a corrugated pattern; and
c. a third section including two foldable extensions which are separated by a channel, wherein said channel begins along a lateral edge of said third section, wherein said channel includes a flavor capsule nested therein.

### Claim 7 (depends on 6)

The pre-rolled tip of claim 6 wherein said channel includes a distal end and a proximal end, said distal end being an open end, wherein said proximal end is a lateral edge of said second section.

### Claim 8

A system for a pre-rolled tip, comprising:
a. a tip assembly including a tip sheet having a corrugated section defined by a plurality of crease lines, a cutout made into said corrugated section; and
b. a capsule assembly including at least one capsule nested within said cutout, said corrugated section forming a pattern which supports said at least one capsule when said tip assembly is formed into a rolled configuration, said at least one capsule containing a liquid substance with a particular flavor therein.
