  • Patent number: 11490459
    Abstract: A vaping atomizer for use with a vaping device is provided. The atomizer includes an enclosure portion and a heating-element housing extending through the interior of the enclosure portion. A first cavity for receiving vaping liquid is at least partially formed between the enclosure portion and the heating-element housing. The heating-element housing includes at least one aperture formed therein facilitating transfer of the vaping liquid from the first cavity to a second cavity formed on the interior thereof. The at least one aperture formed in the heating-element housing can be generally shaped as a triangle. The size and shape of the least one aperture can be optimized to prevent the vaping liquid from flooding the interior cavity, and to accommodate uses of various vaping liquids having different viscosities, as well as to prevent liquid-absorbing material provided in the second cavity from drying out to prevent dry hits during use of the vaping atomizer.
