Patent number: 12156299Abstract: A two-stage atomizer having a primary heating element and a secondary heating element. The primary heating element heats a fluid to generate an aerosol with a given average particle size. The secondary heating element reheats the aerosol from the first heating element to produce a final aerosol having a reduced average particle size. The two-stage atomizer is configured to operate with an electronic vaporizer device having a power source and control electronics.Type: GrantFiled: July 29, 2019Date of Patent: November 26, 2024Assignee: EVOLV, LLCInventors: John Bellinger, Brandon Ward

Patent number: 12055532Abstract: Provided are a system and method of reproducing individual puffs based on empirical data collected by a plurality of electronic vaping devices during use of the vaping devices by users to inhale vapors. The method involves receiving, over a communication network for each of the plurality of electronic vaping devices: (i) reservoir information indicative of a configuration of a reservoir storing a liquid that is at least partially converted into the vapor, and (ii) a plurality of operational parameters for each of a plurality of puffs drawn by the users. The operational parameters include a first operational parameter measured by a sensor system provided to the respective electronic vaping device. An evaluation vaping device is controlled to reproduce a puff by generating a vapor based on the received reservoir information and the received plurality of operational parameters in effect during the puff that is being reproduced.Type: GrantFiled: April 12, 2019Date of Patent: August 6, 2024Assignee: EVOLV, LLCInventors: James Bellinger, John Bellinger Decker

Patent number: 12023436Abstract: The claimed subject matter provides a control component that regulates output of an electronic vaporizer used to simulate smoking. The control component manages power to a heating element. A power detect component collects a parameter of the heating element to determine actual power output thereof. The control component dynamically adjusts the power source based on the actual power output.Type: GrantFiled: April 22, 2019Date of Patent: July 2, 2024Assignee: Evolv, LLCInventors: John Bellinger, Brandon Ward
