Definitions
- the present invention relates to a cigar humidifier of approximately cigar size for insertion into a cigar box or a humidor.
- Cigars have the unpleasant property of consumers that they dry out very quickly when stored in the cigar box. This greatly limits the smoking pleasure of such a cigar, in contrast to a cigar optimally stored at around 70% humidity in the specialty shop.
- fruit deposits change the cigar aroma in a negative way.
- the object of the invention is to provide a simple and cheap humidification device for cigars with which the same cigar quality can be preserved as in an air-conditioned room.
- the cigar should not be wet, but only optimally moistened and the device should fit comfortably in a cigar box. If water needs to be refilled, this should be evident and possible in a simple manner.
- the stated object is achieved with the cigar humidifier according to the preamble of independent claim 1 in that it has a tubular container with openings, a water-storing body resting on a spring or attached to it being inserted into the container interior.
- the approximately cigar-shaped cigar humidifier 1 has a tubular container 2, which is preferably made of plastic, the upper end 3 of which is closed and the lower end 4 of which is provided with an opening 5.
- the container 2 In its upper half the container 2 has two further diametrically opposite openings 6.
- Inside the container is a spring 8, preferably made of stainless steel, attached outside of a projection 7 on the end 4, on which in turn a water-storing body 9 rests or is attached to it.
- the water-storing body 9 preferably consists of endless polyester fibers, which are wrapped in a sheath 10 like a cigarette filter.
- the cover 10 is a water-permeable non-woven fleece made of endless polyester fibers.
- a red self-adhesive tape 11 preferably laminated with plastic film, is glued to the casing 10 in cooperation with them.
- a preferably removable instruction manual 12 for handling the cigar humidifier can be glued to the container 2.
- the body 9 is pretreated with a glycerine / water / fungicide mixture for subsequent optimal moisture regulation and to prevent rot, such that the red self-adhesive tape 11 is visible in an upright position through the openings 6.
- a glycerine / water / fungicide mixture for subsequent optimal moisture regulation and to prevent rot, such that the red self-adhesive tape 11 is visible in an upright position through the openings 6.
- the cigar humidifier Before the cigar humidifier is placed in a cigar box or humidor for the first time, it must be moistened with water. This is done by removing the lid 13 supplied with the sale from the end 4 and holding the cigar humidifier upright, as described on the instructions for use, with the end 4 first, and immersing it in a vessel with water for 5 seconds.
- the now fully soaked body 9 compresses the spring 8 by the additional weight of the water to such an extent that the red self-adhesive tape 11 disappears behind the openings 6 as a sign of readiness for use and
- the opening 5 at the end of the container 2 is preferably designed such that a reservoir 14 is formed by the circumferential inward projection 7, as a result of which excess water or dripping from the body 9 is prevented from escaping. Since the spring 8 preferably rests on the bottom of this reservoir 14, it inevitably directs any dripping water from the body 9 into the reservoir 14 in a direct connection.

Abstract
L'invention concerne un humidificateur de cigares (1) qui est brièvement plongé dans de l'eau avant d'être placé dans la boîte à cigares à la place d'un cigare. De la vapeur d'eau se dégage alors durablement dans la boîte à cigares par le corps (9) emmagasinant l'eau et par l'enveloppe (10) perméable à l'eau, puis par les ouvertures (5, 6). De cette façon, les cigares dans la boîte à cigares se conservent sans se dessécher très longtemps et de façon pratique, comme dans une pièce climatisée. Lorsqu'une bande auto-adhésive colorée (11) collée sur l'enveloppe (10) perméable à l'eau devient visible à travers les ouvertures (6), on sait qu'il faut replonger l'humidificateur de cigares (1) dans l'eau avant de continuer à l'utiliser.
