  • Wickless vaporizing devices and methods
    Patent number: 11154669
    Abstract: Deformable valves and atomizer designs for a vaporizer (e.g., electronic cigarette). The vaporizer may be used for vaporization of liquid and/or organic material. The vaporizer may enable enhanced flow control of fluid and may generate high quality and quantity of vapor efficiently. In some instances, flow path of the vaporizer may allow bulk fluid flow, e.g., in contrast to capillary flow, to deliver fluid to a vicinity of the vaporizer. In some instances, the vaporizer may utilize improved atomizer designs for vaporizing devices, where said designs can be configured optionally, with various embodiments of a breath-modulating deformable valve.

  • Thermal wick for electronic vaporizers
    Patent number: 11129414
    Abstract: Vaporizers having a thermal wick are provided. A thermal wick may include a combination of an electrically insulating porous wicking material surrounding, enclosing, covering or embedded within a thermally conductive material. The thermally conductive material has a thermal conductance greater than that of the porous wicking material. The thermal wick reduces the viscosity of vaporizable material by transferring heat throughout the wick and warming the vaporizable material and providing a high void volume. The thermal wick allows for substantially higher total particulate masses of vaporizable material than traditional wicks.

  • Vaporization device systems and methods
    Patent number: 11019685
    Abstract: Provided herein are systems and methods to generate an inhalable vapor in an electronic vaporization device. The vaporization device may generate a vapor with one or more defined characteristics. In some cases, the vapor may have a predetermined aerosol number density and/or a predetermined average aerosol diameter. The vaporization device may generate a vapor from a vaporizable material. In some cases, the vaporizable material may be a liquid material housed in a cartridge. The vaporization device may comprise a rechargeable power storage device.

  • Vaporization device systems and methods
    Patent number: 10993471
    Abstract: Vaporizer cartridges are provided. In some implementations, a cartridge includes a body having a base region sized to be inserted into a receptacle on a device, a mouthpiece at a proximal end of the body, a reservoir configured to hold a vaporizable material, a wick positioned to contact the vaporizable material, a resistive heating element having a pair of heating element ends, and a pair of plates away from the distal end. The plates are in contact with the pair of heating element ends, have a contact end exposed on an outer surface of a distal end of the body, and are configured to complete a circuit with the device when the base region is inserted into the receptacle, the exposed contact ends disposed in a first plane on the distal end. Related systems, methods, and articles of manufacture are also described.

  • Vaporization device systems and methods
    Patent number: 10986867
    Abstract: Vaporizer cartridges are provided. In some implementations, a cartridge includes a storage compartment having a longitudinal and two transverse dimensions, a mouthpiece at a proximal end of the storage compartment, exposed contact surfaces proximate to and accessible from a distal end of the storage compartment, and a heater proximate to the distal end. The heater includes extended plate contacts, a wick disposed between the plate contacts, and a heating element in contact with the plate contacts and the wick. Two opposed ends of the wick are disposed within the storage compartment and configured to contact the vaporizable material. The plate contact are electrically connected to the contact surfaces. Related systems, methods, and articles of manufacture are also described.
