    DETAILED DESCRIPTION

    (10) As discussed above, embodiments of the present disclosure relate to cannabis accessories and more particularly to a cannabis personal processor apparatus as used to improve the chopping and breaking up of a bud.

    (11) Generally, this device an electric personal processor that uses a chopping blade instead of a cutting blade. The chopping blade is designed to pull the leaf from the stem and separate it so that the leaf falls through a screen into a collection bowl at the bottom of the device. It also includes a connecting unit that allows the leaf to fall directly into a joint, a pre-rolled cone joint, a pipe or a bowl. All of this allows the most sanitary and potent use of the cannabis bud. With the cannabis personal processor apparatus, a user can use small tongs to pick up the bud and place it into the chopping and separation area without touching it. The device also comes with a paddle and brush for cleaning the device. The entire process takes about 2 to 3 seconds which makes it fast and easy.

    (12) The device may include an LED light inside the device for more enjoyable use. It is different from a grinder in that it is not designed to cut the bud with a blade but to chop the bud and remove the leaf from the stem. This provides a much better flavor for the marijuana smoke. It chops the bud so that the leaf portion falls through the screen below the chopping blade and keeps the stem on the top of the screen and does not fall through the screen. The leaf then travels down into a funnel portion that can hold it there or it flows through the opening down into the pre-rolled, pipe or bowl to then be smoked. It allows the user to never touch the cannabis with their hands or fingers. This allows more of the kief that is on the bud to stay on the bud and therefore provides better flavor and better potency of the bud. This unit is for personal use and a larger unit with the same design features can be used for commercial use as well. This is the first personal processor to be designed for this purpose. It is not used for grinding up herbs and such, as it is a device designed specifically for Cannabis processing.

    (13) Referring now more specifically to the drawings by numerals of reference, there is shown in FIGS. 1-7, various views of a cannabis personal processor apparatus 100.
