A self-extinguishing storage device is disclosed. The self-extinguishing storage device safeguards cylindrical smoking articles, such as cigarettes and cigars, for future consumption. A cylindrical body includes a longitudinal length between two open ends in order to accept the cylindrical smoking article therein. A pair of cylindrical caps are configured to friction fit with the cylindrical body at each of the open ends. The pair of cylindrical caps form an airtight closure.

A storage tube for a smoking material includes a hollow tube extending along a central longitudinal axis from an open first tube end to a closed or closable second tube end. The tube has a sidewall with an inside surface and a cross-sectional dimension sized to receive a smoking material, wherein the second tube end has a lower inside end surface extending transversely to the central longitudinal axis. An upper end cap is removably attachable to the first tube end and forms an air-tight seal. A rigid protrusion extends axially into the tube from the lower inside end surface and has a protrusion body and a protrusion tip. The protrusion defines a gap between the protrusion body and the inside surface of the sidewall. Optionally, the protrusion is removable.

A multi-compartment storage container for stowing smoking articles and a partially smoked item includes a shell that defines an interior space. The shell has a top that is open. A wall is coupled to the shell and positioned in the interior space. The wall extends between a front and a back of the shell proximate to a respective opposing side of the shell. The wall extends from a bottom of the shell to the top to define a small compartment and a large compartment within the interior space. The large compartment is configured to stow smoking articles and the small compartment is configured to stow a lit smoking item. A lid is hingedly coupled to the shell proximate to the top. The lid is positioned to pivot to sealably close the top to extinguish the lit smoking item.

The present invention provides a device for extinguishing a smoking product such as a cigarette or cigar. The device is inserted into a filter attached to a smoking product. The device includes a container for an extinguishing agent adapted to move from a first state wherein the extinguishing agent is not released from the container, to a second state where the extinguishing agent is released from the container.

A sidestream smoke removal device and a control method thereof are provided. The sidestream smoke removal device according to some embodiments of the present disclosure may include a housing in which a smoking space is formed, an article insertion portion which is disposed at one end of the housing and forms an opening for insertion of a smoking article into the smoking space, an ignition portion which is configured to ignite the smoking article inserted into the smoking space, a sidestream smoke processing portion which is configured to process sidestream smoke generated from the smoking article inserted into the smoking space, and a heating portion disposed inside the housing to heat the smoking space. The heating portion may heat the smoking space to remove a smell generated due to by-products of smoking, and accordingly, the cleanliness of the sidestream smoke removal device can be improved.
