Abstract: This disclosure relates generally to vaporizing devices and components of vaporizing devices, such as mouthpiece locking structures. In various aspects, a locking structure for a mouthpiece includes a circular body extending between a proximal end and a distal end, where an interior surface of the body defines a central lumen. The locking structures may also include a clamp disposed within the central lumen, where the clamp has an angled wall extending inwardly from a rim of the interior surface of the body towards the central lumen. The clamp may additionally include a notch within the angled wall, with the angled wall of the clamp (i) encircling a substantial entirety of a circumference of the body, (ii) defining a clamp lumen, (iii) having a thickness ranging from about 0.5 mm to about 0.7 mm, and (iv) having an angle or bias of from about 100° to about 110°.

Abstract: A vaping system includes a housing for selectively holding a first vaping device and a second vaping device. The first and second vaping devices each include a mouthpiece with a vapor outlet positioned towards a first edge. A first configuration within the housing spaces the vapor outlet of the first mouthpiece and the vapor outlet of the second mouthpiece by a first distance, and a second configuration within the housing spaces the vapor outlet of the first mouthpiece and the vapor outlet of the second mouthpiece by a second distance. The first distance is less than the second distance, the first configuration allowing the user to vape from the first and second vaping devices simultaneously and the second configuration allowing the user to separately vape from the first and second vaping devices. In another example, a connector with multiple configurations connects two or more vaping devices.
Abstract: A vaping device packaging system includes a first tray for holding vaping device bodies, the first tray having a plurality of voids, the voids holding a portion of a vaping device body to be filled with a substance. The first tray and the vaping device bodies are covered by a first cover. A second tray for holding vaping device mouthpieces has a plurality of voids allowing the vaping device mouthpieces to be vertically aligned with the corresponding vaping device bodies of the first tray, each of the voids holding a portion of a vaping device mouthpiece to cap a corresponding vaping device body. The first tray is capable of being placed over a jig having a plurality of jig voids corresponding to the voids for holding the vaping device bodies.
