Publication number: 20240114958Abstract: A personal vaporizer has a hollow tube that extends from an atomizer through a tank for holding vaporization media. The hollow tube has a vapor tube portion and a filling path portion. A mouthpiece can be advanced over the hollow tube to a first position, at which the mouthpiece lumen communicates with the tank via the filling path portion. During manufacture, vaporization media can be injected into the mouthpiece lumen and will flow into the tank. After the tank is filled with vaporization media, the mouthpiece can be moved to a second position in which the tank is sealed relative to the mouthpiece lumen, but the vapor tube is unblocked so that the vapor tube communicates vapor to the mouthpiece lumen.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 12, 2023Publication date: April 11, 2024Applicant: Vaporous Technologies, Inc.Inventor: J.

Publication number: 20230389610Abstract: A personal vaporizer includes a heating element having a generally upside-down cup shape. An air warming space is defined within the cup shape, and intake air is delivered into the air warming space. Vaporization media is delivered adjacent a top wall of the heating element. The heating element warms the vaporization media so that it flows downwardly along a side wall of the heating element. The side wall of the heating element is heated sufficient to atomize the vaporization media. Warmed intake air from the air warming space is drawn through the atomized media, forming a vapor that can be inhaled by a user.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 22, 2023Publication date: December 7, 2023Applicant: VAPOROUS TECHNOLOGIES, INC.Inventor: J.

Patent number: 11825883Abstract: A personal vaporizer is configured to be used with a battery assembly. An atomizer of the personal vaporizer is configured to atomize vaporizing media, which atomized media becomes entrained in air flowing through the vaporization chamber to form a vapor. The personal vaporizer can include a warming element that warms vaporizing media within the tank without atomizing such media in order to reduce the viscosity of such media and improve media flow within the tank. The warming element can be passive or electrically powered.Type: GrantFiled: July 16, 2019Date of Patent: November 28, 2023Assignee: Lubby Holdings, LLCInventor: J. Christian Rado

Publication number: 20220273034Abstract: A personal vaporizer is configured to be used with a separately-formed vial. The vial can be sandwiched between a proximal and distal portion of the vaporizer, which in turn can be releasably attached to, and powered by, a battery assembly. Attaching the proximal and distal portions, with the vial in place, can both hold the vial in place and provide access to the vial so that vaporizing media within the vial can flow to an atomizer of the vaporizer. The vaporizer can include a child-proof locking structure for releasably engaging the proximal and distal portions.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 16, 2022Publication date: September 1, 2022Applicant: Vaporous Technologies, Inc.Inventor: J.

Patent number: 11096420Abstract: A personal vaporizer comprises structure enabling a user to control the configuration of the vaporization chamber in which vaporizing media is atomized. In some embodiments, a personal vaporizer has an atomizer module having a heating element and a bowl for receiving vaporizing media. An adapter module is releasably attached to the atomizer module so as to be adjacent the bowl. The adapter module receives and holds a plug that can be advanced toward and away from the heating element so as to selectively change the configuration of the vaporization chamber, which is defined between the heating element and a distal end of the adapter plug.Type: GrantFiled: February 4, 2016Date of Patent: August 24, 2021Assignee: Lubby Holdings, LLCInventor: J.

Patent number: RE49473Abstract: A personal vaporizer has an atomizer module having a heating element and an atomizer cup for receiving vaporizing medium. A flow module is releasably attached to the atomizer module. The flow module intakes ambient air and directs the air into a vaporizing chamber at and adjacent the atomizer cup, where the air mixes with atomized medium to form a vapor. The vapor exits the vaporizing chamber via one or more exit passages defined through the flow module. Vapor is directed from the exit passages into a mouthpiece and further into the user's mouth.Type: GrantFiled: April 20, 2021Date of Patent: March 28, 2023Assignee: LUBBY HOLDINGS, LLCInventor: J.
