Abstract

Improved ashtray, of the type comprising a support plate fixed to a wall and to which is articulated by means of a shaft a bucket which, receiver of ashes and cigar tips, is rotating to invert its position in order to empty its contents and is requested against, the support plate by a spring. Helicoidal threaded on the shaft and seated by its ends properly, essentially characterized by the fact that the support plate has cavities which are housed respective springs that tend to apply to balls in a holes provided in the rear face of the tray to obtain the retention of the latter in position of use but allowing its rotation with its reduced friction, said helical spring being retained by means of a screw that is screwed axially in a posterior prolongation of the tray constitutive of the axis of articulation, whose screw has a wide head that is applied on the spring that surrounds the shaft and then n of the same a conical portion that corresponds to an equally conical seat of the mouth of the shaft forming by the pressure of the screw a wedging thereof which prevents its loosening and the possibility of subtraction of the cuvette, also presenting the front face of the support plate a circular recess in which slides a rib in the form of a circular crown provided on the rear face of the bowl concentrically to the shaft, acting as a guide element preventing premature wear of the shaft to provide smoothness to rotation thereof .
