DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE EMBODIMENTS OF THE INVENTION

(11) Referring now to the drawings, where the present invention is generally referred to with numeral 10, it can be observed that it basically includes a holder assembly 20 and a packer assembly 50. It should be understood there are modifications and variations of the invention that are too numerous to be listed but that all fit within the scope of the invention. Also, singular words should be read as plural and vice versa and masculine as feminine and vice versa, where appropriate, and alternative embodiments do not necessarily imply that the two are mutually exclusive.

(12) The holder assembly 20 may include a body 22 having a first end 24 and a second end 26. The first end 24 may include at least one cutout 28 specifically designed to receive and support smoking articles 60 of various dimensions, such as pre-rolled cones or joints. As shown in FIG. 1, in a preferred embodiment, the first end may have a circular shape, wherein the cutout 28 may be included at the center thereof. In an alternative embodiment, the first end 24 may feature multiple cutouts, embodied as 28, 30 of different dimensions to accommodate smoking articles of varying diameters. It should be noted that more than two cutouts may be incorporated in the first end 24, depending on operational conditions and/or design requirements. The first end 24 may further include a slit 32 extending from the cutout 28 toward the body 22, providing enhanced flexibility to the cutout area. When the holder assembly 20 features two or more cutouts, the slit 32 may extend through each of the cutouts. This slit 32 may allow the cutout 28 to expand and contract, enabling a secure grip on smoking articles of different sizes. The flexibility provided by slit 32 may ensure that pre-rolled cones and joints of varying diameters may be securely held without risk of falling out or being damaged.

(13) The second end 26 of the holder assembly 20 may be configured in different ways depending on the embodiment. In a first embodiment, the second end 26 may be hollow, forming a cavity 34 sized to receive a tapered end 52 of the packer assembly 50, commonly termed as picker. In a second embodiment, the second end 26 may itself be tapered, thereby defining a picker, to interface with a hollow end 54 of the packer assembly 50. The connection between the holder assembly 20 and packer assembly 50 may be achieved through various attachment mechanisms, including but not limited to pressure fitting, threaded engagement, snap-on connections, or magnetic coupling.

(14) In a third embodiment, the second end 26 of the holder assembly 20 may incorporate a tip rolling functionality. This may include a slit 36 specifically designed to facilitate paper insertion and twist-rolling operations 70. The slit 36 may allow a user to insert a flat paper tip, which may then be twisted to form a rolled tip. The rolled tip may subsequently serve as the foundation for rolling a complete cone. This feature may eliminate the need for separate rolling tools, thus enhancing the multipurpose nature of the invention.

(15) The packer assembly 50 may include an elongated body 56 having a first end 58 and a second end 60. In various embodiments, the first end 58 may be tapered to form a packing tip 62 designed for efficiently compressing smokable material within a cone or joint. The second end 60 may either be hollow to receive the tapered second end 26 of the holder assembly 20 as described above, or it may be tapered, thereby defining 52, to be inserted into the cavity 34 of the holder assembly 20, depending on the specific embodiment.

(16) In a further embodiment, the elongated body 56 of the packer assembly 50 may incorporate a picker function (52) at an end opposite to the packing tip 62. This picker function may be achieved through a narrow, elongated extension suitable for manipulating smokable material with precision.

(17) The holder assembly 20 and packer assembly 50 may be detachably connected, allowing users to utilize each component separately as needed, or together as a unified tool. When attached, the combined tool may provide an integrated solution for handling, packing, and preparing smoking articles. When detached, each component may be used independently, offering flexibility based on the user's specific needs at any given time.

(18) Both the holder assembly 20 and packer assembly 50 may be constructed from a variety of materials, including but not limited to various plastics, wood, metal, aluminum, alloys, or silicone. The material selection may be based on considerations of durability, flexibility where needed, and overall user experience. The components may be manufactured through various processes, including molding, casting, machining, or 3D printing, depending on the selected materials and desired production volume.

(19) The foregoing description conveys the best understanding of the objectives and advantages of the present invention. Different embodiments may be made of the inventive concept of this invention. It is to be understood that all matter disclosed herein is to be interpreted merely as illustrative, and not in a limiting sense.
