DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF EMBODIMENTS

[0025] Smoking Article Mouthpiece with Vented Airflow “MINITOX FAN” (FIG. 1) contains a hollow cylindrical frame made of two hollow cone-shaped detachable parts: the lower part 1 (FIG. 2) from the side of the smoking article with an internal thread; and the upper part 2 (FIG. 3) from the side of the smoking pipe with a shoulder with an external thread, for their alignment with each other and with a cylindrical outgrowth on opposite sides for connection with the smoking pipe 3 (FIG. 4) and the hose of the smoking article; a cylindrical cartridge 4 (FIG. 5), made with a dead bottom with a shoulder, with perforating transverse slits along the entire surface, placed inside the frame, complete with a removable lid 5 with identical slits; receptacle 6 (FIG. 6), made in the form of a hollow cylinder of a smaller diameter for placement inside the cartridge with perforating transverse slits, with a dead bottom on one side and with an airtight lid on the other, on both sides of which there are appendages with a diameter of no more than the diameter of the granules of aluminum oxide and silica gel for its weighed placement in the cartridge; and a fan (FIG. 7), made in the form of a wheel 7 with a shaft, which includes three blades 8 and a plug (not shown in the drawing) for fixing the fan blades, while the fan is located in the groove of the upper part of the frame. The cartridge 4 contains segments enclosed on both sides by a mesh partition made of a synthetic mesh material (not shown in the drawing), including moisture-retaining and odor-absorbing sorbents in the form of particles or granules, and the cartridge contains a sorbent for detoxification in the form of granules.

[0026] The mouthpiece is used as follows:

[0027] The bottom of the cartridge is covered with a mesh partition. A receptacle with a mixture of CARBOTECH DGK 8X30/60 coconut sorbent and harmala at a mass ratio of 1:0.1 is lowered into it, thereafter the cartridge is filled with the sorbents of silica gel or particles of aluminum oxide, or a mixture of silica gel and particles of aluminum oxide at a mass ratio of 1:1, natural aluminosilicates, close the cartridge tightly with a mesh baffle plate and a lid. A fan is installed in the groove of the upper part of the frame, then the cartridge is installed up to the flange of the bottom to the flange of the upper part of the frame and the lower part of the frame is then screwed in its place. On one of the sides, the frame is connected with a hose to a smoking article, while on the other it is connected to a smoking pipe. The fan starts spinning during inhaling.

[0028] When inhaled, hot vapors of aerosol water are absorbed by silica gel and aluminum oxide, while toxic substances, such as tobacco combustion products, are retained by the sorbent for detoxification. The fan cools and separates the vapor phase containing tarry carcinogens from the inhaled smoke.
