  • Publication number: 20240358090
    Abstract: Provided are devices for delivering volatile compound(s) to individuals. The delivery devices can be unpowered devices. The volatile compound(s) can be flavored. Delivery device can comprise engageable components releasably held together by a selectively releasable attachment mechanism. In aspects, the delivery devices further comprise an adjustable airflow control mechanism. In aspects, movement of delivery device components is associated with visual, audible, tactile, or audible and tactile indication of movement or position of device elements. In aspects, element(s) of a delivery device or a device in a system serve as a fidget movement element, being detectably moveable within a short period upon application of a small initiation force easily being returned to a position suitable for repeating the movement. Further provided are methods of using such delivery devices or systems for promoting user sensory experiences or for other beneficial effects, such as reducing habit-related behaviors or sensations.

  • Patent number: 12114693
    Abstract: The invention herein provides devices, e.g., non-electronic, non-heating, or both non-electronic and non-heating, devices for delivering volatile compound(s) to the mouth. In aspects devices comprise first and second components releasably held together by a selectively releasable attachment mechanism, such that the first and second components can be completely disengaged from one another. In aspects, devices further comprise an adjustable airflow control mechanism controlled by the rotation of the first and second components relative to one another. In aspects, rotation of the first and second components provides an audible, tactile, or audible and tactile indication of movement indicating a change in airflow control setting(s). Devices can further comprise one or more visual indicators indicating spatial orientation of one or more device components, the status of the airflow control setting(s), or both.

  • Patent number: 11402184
    Abstract: An ammunition cartridge for an air gun includes a housing, a partition, a cap, at least one projectile, and at least one gas flow aperture. The housing defines an interior space. The housing has a rear portion and a forward portion. The partition is disposed in the interior space and engaged with the rear portion. The cap is releasably engaged with the forward portion. The at least one projectile is received in the interior space between the partition and the cap. The at least one gas flow aperture extends through the partition and provides a fluid flow path through which a pressurized gas provided by the air gun enters and pressurizes the interior space to propel the cartridge through a barrel bore of the air gun.
