Description

FIELD OF THE INVENTION

The present device relates to a vaporizer that can provide vapor from multiple sources simultaneously within the same housing.

BACKGROUND

Portable vaporizers have become increasingly popular over the past few years as alternatives to traditional smoking methods. Vaporization allows for the delivery to the lungs of desired chemicals without the unhealthy by-products of the combustion process. Most vaporizers currently on the market are configured to vaporize a single substance, be it dried herbs, oils, or e-liquids. Each of the difference substances require subtle differences in the structures of the vaporization chamber to create the proper vaporization environment. Some vaporizers are modular, allowing for the user to switch out a vaporization chamber configured for one substance to a vaporization chamber configured for a different substance, and at least one vaporizer currently in production contains vaporizers for two different substances within the same housing, but requires the user to choose one or the other.

However, many users desire a mixture of two substances. For example, vaporizing dry herbs can leave an unpleasant taste in the mouth, which the vaporization of a flavored e-liquid could alleviate. What is needed is a dual-source vaporizer that is configured to allow a user to select from two separate vaporization sources or a combination thereof in order to satisfy the user's vaporization needs.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

It is an aspect of the disclosure to provide a dual-source vaporizer that allows for the selection of multiple vaporization sources, either individually or in combination. These together with other aspects and advantages, which will be subsequently apparent, reside in the details of construction and operation as more fully hereinafter described and claimed, reference being had to the accompanying drawings forming a part hereof, wherein life numerals refer to like parts throughout.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

The present device can be a dual-source vaporizer that can allow a user to draw vapor from two vaporizing sources, either individually or in combination. In a preferred embodiment, one vaporizing source can be a dry herb vaporizer, while the second vaporizing source can be an e-liquid vaporizer. Alternately, a wax or oil vaporizer can be substituted for the dry herb vaporizer or the e-liquid vaporizer. The dry herb vaporizer can be contained within the main body of the dual-source vaporizer, while the e-liquid vaporizer can be contained in the combination tank of the dual-source vaporizer. The dual-source vaporizer can have a rechargeable battery, which can be used to power the dry herb vaporizer, the e-liquid vaporizer, and the dual-source vaporizer's circuit. The dual-source vaporizer's circuit can include a voltage controller for the e-liquid vaporizer, a temperature controller for the dry-herb vaporizer, a display screen configured to display voltage or temperature levels, a firing button, and a microprocessor. The microprocessor can be configured to regulate the voltage and temperature levels as defined by the user, as well as control the Display screen while the dual-source vaporizer is powered.

The dry herb vaporizer can comprise a series of nested elements. A dry herb chamber, into which the dry herb to be vaporized is placed, can be nested within a heating element. The heating element and dry herb chamber can be nested inside an insulator. The heating element, dry herb chamber, and insulator can be nested within a chamber casing. The entire dry herb vaporizer, comprising the dry herb chamber, heating element, insulator, and chamber casing can be nested within the main body of the dual-source vaporizer.

To use the dry herb vaporizer, the user can place a premeasured quantity of dry herbs into the dry herb chamber. The dry herb chamber can have a top collar having one or more exhaust holes, connected to a vapor funnel. The dry herb chamber can be made of a material that allows heat to spread evenly throughout the material, such as ceramic, metal, or any other material with similar properties. When the dry herb vaporizer is activated by the microprocessor, power can be applied to the heating element in order for the heating element to heat to the temperature set by the user. Once the heating element has reached the desired temperature, the user can inhale on the mouthpiece and begin drawing dry herb vapor. The dry herb vapor can travel out through the exhaust holes in the top collar into the vapor funnel, which can shunt the vapor into the combination tank via radial vapor holes on the combination tank connector located on the dual-vaporizer faceplate. For ease of cleaning, the dry herb chamber can be accessed from the bottom by removing a removable plug mounted on the underside of the main body. The user can replace the removable plug before more dry herb is placed into the dry herb chamber.

The e-liquid vaporizer can have an e-liquid chamber, having one or more air input ports, and an e-liquid element. The e-liquid chamber can be filled with e-liquid by the user. To use the e-liquid vaporizer, the user can depress the firing button, which can send a signal to the microprocessor to apply a voltage, set by the user using the voltage control, to the e-liquid element. The e-liquid element, upon application of the voltage, can heat to a temperature sufficient to produce the desired amount of e-liquid vapor for the user's inhalation. The air input ports, which can be regulated using the air flow slider, can allow a stream of ambient air into the e-liquid chamber, allowing the user to inhale the mixture of e-liquid vapor and ambient air.

In an embodiment, the combination tank can have an e-liquid stem, a dry herb stem, a combination chamber, and a mouthpiece stem. Additionally, the combination tank can have an e-liquid chamber, a selection slider, an air flow slider, and dry herb vapor input ports. The e-liquid stem and the dry herb stem can pass through the e-liquid chamber. The selection slider can lock in one of three positions: dry herb mode, e-liquid mode, or combination mode. In dry herb mode, the microprocessor can enable power distribution to the dry herb vaporizer and disable power distribution to the e-liquid vaporizer. As the user inhales, dry herb vapor can enter the combination tank through the dry herb vapor input ports, be drawn into the dry herb stem, pass through the dry herb stem into the combination chamber, and enter the user's mouth through the mouthpiece stem. In e-liquid mode, the microprocessor can enable power distribution to the e-liquid vaporizer and disable power distribution to the dry herb vaporizer. The e-liquid vapor, generated as described above, can enter the e-liquid stem, pass through the e-liquid stem into the combination chamber, and enter the user's mouth through the mouthpiece stem. In combination mode, the microprocessor can enable power distribution to both the dry herb vaporizer and the e-liquid vaporizer. Dry herb vapor and e-liquid vapor can be drawn into the dry herb stem and the e-liquid stem, respectively. Passing through their respective stems, the dry herb vapor and the e-liquid vapor can combine in the combination chamber, and the resulting combination vapor can enter the user's mouth through the mouthpiece stem.

In an alternate embodiment, the combination tank can have an e-liquid stem, a combination chamber, and a mouthpiece stem. Additionally, the combination tank can have an e-liquid chamber, a selection slider, an air flow slider, and dry herb vapor input ports. The e-liquid chamber can have an outer wall, and can be nested within the combination chamber. The e-liquid stem can pass through the e-liquid chamber. The selection slider can lock in one of three positions: dry herb mode, e-liquid mode, or combination mode. In dry herb mode, the microprocessor can enable power distribution to the dry herb vaporizer and disable power distribution to the e-liquid vaporizer. As the user inhales, dry herb vapor can enter the combination tank through the dry herb vapor input ports, be drawn directly into the combination chamber, and enter the user's mouth through the mouthpiece stem. In e-liquid mode, the microprocessor can enable power distribution to the e-liquid vaporizer and disable power distribution to the dry herb vaporizer. The e-liquid vapor, generated as described above, can enter the e-liquid stem, pass through the e-liquid stem into the combination chamber, and enter the user's mouth through the mouthpiece stem. In combination mode, the microprocessor can enable power distribution to both the dry herb vaporizer and the e-liquid vaporizer. Dry herb vapor and e-liquid vapor can be drawn into the combination chamber and the e-liquid stem, respectively. The dry herb vapor and the e-liquid vapor can combine in the combination chamber, and the resulting combination vapor can enter the user's mouth through the mouthpiece stem.
