  • Patent number: 10925317
    Abstract: An electronic smoking device (210, 310, 410) has two portions (12, 13) wherein one of the portions (12, 13) comprises a cavity (240, 340, 440) for a liquid reservoir (234, 334, 434). The portions (12, 13) can be moved with respect to each other, by a movement and a respective counter movement, at least between an insertion configuration and a closed cavity configuration. In the insertion configuration a liquid reservoir (234, 334, 434) can be inserted into the cavity (340, 440). In a closed cavity configuration, the cavity (240, 340, 440) is closed by the other portion and a liquid reservoir opening element (70) of said one or the other portion opens the housed liquid reservoir (234, 334, 434).

  • Patent number: 10426195
    Abstract: In a system comprising an electronic smoking device and a capsule (6), the electronic smoking device includes a housing, an electric power source, an electrically heatable atomizer adapted to atomize a liquid supplied from the capsule (6), an interface adapted to mount the capsule (6) at the electronic smoking device, and control electronics. The capsule (6) comprises a shell (30) having a longitudinal axis and containing a liquid. A first end side (32) of the shell (30) is sealed by a puncturable membrane. The capsule (6) is adapted to be mounted at the electronic smoking device via the interface. The shell (30) has a triangular-like cross-sectional shape (50) transversely to its longitudinal axis, in an area which extends over at least part of the shell (30) in a direction along its longitudinal axis.
