Abstract:
A case for storing tobacco products comprises body having a cavity formed therein. A divider traverses the cavity and defines a boundary between first and second compartments within the cavity. A first lid is pivotally coupled to the body by a first hinge, and a second lid is pivotally coupled to the body by a second hinge. The first lid can be detachably coupled to the divider so as to enclose the first compartment, and the second lid can be detachably coupled to the divider so as to enclose the second compartment. Preferably, the divider is offset from the medial centerline of the body, so that the first compartment has the same length and depth, but a smaller width, than the second compartment. Thus, the case may be configured such that a single tobacco product can be stored in the first compartment, and multiple tobacco products of the same type can be stored in the second compartment. The first and second compartments are sufficiently sealed when the lids are in the closed position that a burning tobacco product stored in either compartment will be quickly extinguished due to a lack of oxygen when the lid for that compartment is moved to the closed position.
