Abstract
An inhalant containment device for capturing smoke or other inhalants is provided. The device includes a mouthpiece that attaches to a bag such that the bag can be filled with smoke, then released at an appropriate time and place. The mouthpiece includes an outer tube that receives an inner tube such that the bag is fed through the outer tube and folded between the inner and outer tube. In this way, the mouthpiece holds the bag securely and keeps a channel open to allow for exhalation of smoke into the bag. A cap is sized to be placed over and close the end of the mouthpiece to keep the smoke in the bag. Additionally, the inhalant containment device may be filled with an inhalant for distribution to patrons at a bar, marijuana dispensary, or other venue.
Claims8
An inhalant containment device, comprising:
- a mouthpiece formed by an inner tube and an outer tube, wherein the inner tube and the outer tube are removable from each other;
- and a bag having a sidewall forming a continuous open end, the bag having an interior volume configured to store smoke therein;
- wherein the inner tube and outer tube are configured to concentrically align such that the inner tube is received within the outer tube;
- wherein the continuous open end of the bag is removably affixed to the mouthpiece in an in-use configuration, wherein in the in-use configuration, the sidewall of the bag is positioned within the outer tube and folded over a distal end of the outer tube so as to be positioned between the inner tube and outer tube, and such that the mouthpiece forms a channel to provide fluid communication between a distal end of the mouthpiece and the interior volume of the bag.
A method of securing an inhalant within a bag, comprising:
- providing an inhalant containment device, having:
- a mouthpiece formed by an inner tube and an outer tube, wherein the inner tube and the outer tube are removable from each other;
- and a bag having a sidewall forming a continuous open end, the bag having an interior volume configured to store smoke therein;
- wherein the inner tube and outer tube are configured to concentrically align such that the inner tube is received within the outer tube;
- wherein the continuous open end of the bag is removably affixed to the mouthpiece in an in-use configuration, wherein in the in-use configuration, the sidewall of the bag is positioned within the outer tube and folded over a distal end of the outer tube so as to be positioned between the inner tube and outer tube, and such that the mouthpiece forms a channel to provide fluid communication between a distal end of the mouthpiece and the interior volume of the bag;
- filling the bag with the inhalant via the channel formed by the mouthpiece;
- and
- securing the inhalant within the bag by placing a cap over an opening of the mouthpiece.
