Abstract: An electronic vaporizer device with a sealed, disposable, fillable cartridge is described, along with a method for refilling the cartridge. The electronic vaporizer includes a body which is held by the user and houses a battery. The body receives and couples with a cartridge with a reservoir for oil or other fluid to be vaporized. The cartridge also includes an atomizer which is powered by the battery via a connector terminal, a wick to provide oil to the atomizer from the oil reservoir, a vapor tube which transmits the vaporized oil to the user though a mouthpiece. In some embodiments, the user fills the reservoir of the cartridge by inserting a needle through a self-sealing septum. Further, the electronic vaporizer device includes a haptic device to provide haptic feedback to a user of the electronic vaporizer to communicate operating states of the electronic vaporizer.

Abstract: A cleaning head for an in-floor pool cleaning system is provided. The cleaning head includes a sleeve having a passage and an insert extending through the passage of the sleeve. The insert includes a flow path and an aperture, wherein the flow path is a curved, such as a question mark shape, and exits through the aperture. The insert is moveable between a first position with the aperture retained with in the sleeve and a second position with the aperture extending beyond the sleeve. The flow path may include an overturn at the aperture. The insert includes a nozzle, a nozzle housing, an upper guide, a lower guide and a weight with the flow path extending through each component. The nozzle includes an angled inlet opening that corresponds to an angled outlet opening of the nozzle housing that engage each other when the nozzle is coupled within the nozzle housing.

Abstract: An adapter for a pool cleaning system is provided. The adapter includes a base member having a top and a bottom surface. The adapter also includes six upper ports coupled to the top surface of the base member, each upper port including an upper aperture extending through the upper port and through the base member. The adapter further includes five lower ports coupled to the bottom surface of the base member, each lower port including a lower aperture extending through the lower port and through the base member. In some embodiments, four of lower ports are in fluid communication four of the upper ports and one of the lower ports is in fluid communication with two of the upper ports.

Abstract: The present disclosure generally relates to vaporizing devices, e.g., electronic cigarettes. The vaporizing device may comprise a vaporization unit that includes a reservoir, a conduit, and a heating element coupled to an inside surface of the conduit. The conduit may be at least partially permeable or porous to allow passage of a liquid from the reservoir through the conduit for vaporization by heat supplied by the heating element. The heating element may be configured into a plurality of bends coupled to the inner surface of the conduit, and may be coupled to a metallic screen or mesh to secure the heating element to the conduit.

Abstract: The present disclosure generally relates to electronic vaporizing devices comprising a plurality of components, and mechanisms for locking or otherwise securing the components together. Components of the electronic vaporizing devices may include a cartridge (e.g., including a liquid for vaporization) and a battery unit (e.g., including a rechargeable battery), among other possible components. The electronic vaporizing devices may be at least partially disassembled to allow a user to replace, replenish, recharge, and/or repair the device, as needed.

Abstract: A package for electronic vaporizing devices and components thereof may include a base and a cover coupled to the base for opening and closing the package. The package may include one or more guiding elements providing for a plurality of slots of different lengths, e.g., for receiving various components of the electronic vaporizing device. The package may include a slot or compartment for housing a power adapter and/or replacement components of the electronic vaporizing device.

Abstract: A package for an electronic cigarette including a receptacle for receiving the electronic cigarette, wherein the receptacle defines at least one opening through which the electronic cigarette may be placed into the receptacle. The package may further include a cover for selectively closing the opening, wherein the cover is movably coupled to the receptacle. The package may also include at least one geometric configuration disposed on an inner surface of one of the receptacle and cover, wherein the geometric configuration is configured to engage a surface of the electronic cigarette in an airtight configuration.

Abstract: The present disclosure generally relates to electronic cigarette components. As will be disclosed, an electronic cigarette may have a translucent conduit and light chamber which, together, allow light from the light source to be diffused therethrough in such a way that the light emitted during inhalation simulates the natural burn of a traditional tobacco cigarette during inhalation. The electronic cigarette may also have a translucent ash simulator to further simulate the natural burn of a traditional tobacco cigarette during inhalation.

Abstract: Generally described, the he present disclosure relates to an electronic cigarette intended to more effectively simulate the feel of a traditional cigarette. In one illustrative embodiment, the electronic cigarette can have a flexible and resilient housing, sufficiently strong to protect internal components and sufficient flexible to provide a more realistic user experience to user's accustomed to the pliability of traditional cigarettes. A paper label may be provided, either affixed to the flexible housing or to a prior art, rigid housing. A plastic coating may be providing of the portion of the paper label intended to be inserted into a user's mouth, so as to prevent degradation of the label while at the same time preserving a realistic feel for those portions of the device not intended to be inserted into the mouth.

Abstract: The present disclosure generally relates to compositions, and related devices and methods, useful in vaporizing devices such as electronic cigarettes. The composition may comprise nicotine, at least one solvent, and at least one ion pairing agent, and may be vaporized to form a condensation aerosol, wherein inhalation of the aerosol allows for deposition of nicotine with the respiratory system, including deep lung deposition. The vaporizing device may comprise a vaporization unit, a battery, and an integrated circuit coupled to the battery, wherein the integrated circuit is configured to control the battery for rapid initial vaporization without overheating, producing thermal degradation products, or draining battery energy. The battery may operate with pulse width modulation for at least a portion of the time the vaporizing device is being used.

Abstract: An electronic cigarette having multiple ports within a filter portion of the electronic cigarette. The ports may be elongated slits or small circular holes positioned proximate a center point of the filter portion or positioned proximate an outer perimeter of the filter portion of the electronic cigarette. The plurality of ports helps to diffuse and volumize the vapor inhaled by the user from within the body of the electronic cigarette.
