  • Publication number: 20240081419
    Abstract: An additive assembly for an e-vaping device includes an adsorbent material that includes adsorbed carbon dioxide. The additive assembly may be in fluid communication with a vaporizer assembly that forms a generated vapor. The adsorbent material may release the carbon dioxide into the generated vapor based on at least a portion of the generated vapor adsorbing on the adsorbent material. The additive assembly may include a flavor material including a flavorant. The adsorbent material may generate heat based on at least a portion of the generated vapor adsorbing on the adsorbent material, and the flavor material may release flavorant into the generated vapor based at least in part on the heat generated by the adsorbent material. One or more of the adsorbent material and the flavor material may be included in beads. Adsorbent material and flavor material may be included in multiple additive structures within the additive assembly.

  • Patent number: 11721964
    Abstract: Damper clamps that can be mounted and secured to utility conductors from remote locations are provided. The damper clamps are configured to be installed from remote locations, such as the ground, by an individual lineman using an extendable reach tool. Initially, the damper clamp is set in an open position where a conductor can be positioned within a seat of the damper clamp and then the damper clamp can be activated so that a keeper is biased toward the seat to temporarily hold the conductor within the seat. The keeper is then tightened to releasably secured to the conductor to the damper clamp.
