EASILY BREAKABLE PLASTIC CAPSULE AND A WATER FILTER FOR A CIGARETTE

摘要

An easily breakable plastic capsule according to the present invention comprises a hollow cylindrical body (2) capable of elastic deformation. The body (2) is packed with a fluid material. An end wall (8) of the body (2) is formed with a plurality of radially extending grooves (10). When the body (2) is deformed elastically, the bottom walls of the grooves (10) are broken, so that the material flows out of the body (2) through tears in the grooves (10). A water filter according to the present invention comprises a casing, made of paper and coupled to a cigarette, and a filter member and the capsule arranged in the casing. The grooved end wall (8) of the capsule is situated in close vicinity to the filter member.
