Abstract

The present invention is a smoking device comprising a glass housing having lower and upper open end portions and an inner portion. The smoking device further comprises a mouthpiece rotatably engaged with the lower open end portion of the housing. The mouthpiece comprises a front surface, a rear surface, and a plurality of air passage ways extending from the front surface to the rear surface and in communication with the inner portion of the housing. The smoking device further comprises an auger comprising a first end portion engaged with the mouthpiece and a second end portion extending within the inner portion of the housing. Rotation of the mouthpiece causes the auger to rotate and the smoking material to be moved upward thru the inner portion of the housing where it is ignited by a match, lighter or other heat source.

Claims

1. A device for consuming a smoking material comprising:

a housing comprising a lower open end portion, an upper open end portion, and an inner portion;

a mouthpiece engaged with said lower open end portion of said housing;

said mouthpiece comprises a front surface, a rear surface, and a first air passage way extending from said front surface to said rear surface and in communication with said inner portion of said housing; and

an auger comprising a first end portion engaged with said mouthpiece and a second end portion extending within said inner portion of said housing.

2. The device of claim 1, wherein said mouthpiece is movably engaged with said lower open end portion of said housing.

3. The device of claim 2, wherein said mouthpiece is rotatably engaged with said lower open end portion of said housing.

4. The device of claim 3, wherein said mouthpiece is sealably engaged with said lower open end portion of said housing.

5. The device of claim 4, wherein said mouthpiece comprises a rear body portion rotatably engaged with said lower open end portion of said housing.

6. The device of claim 5, wherein said rear body portion is disposed within said lower open end portion of said housing.
