Abstract: An electronic device includes a hand held base assembly that includes circuitry including memory and firmware executed by a processor or microcontroller of the circuitry; and a cartridge assembly that includes memory that is read by the firmware of the handheld base assembly. The cartridge assembly and the handheld base assembly are configured to removably couple together to define the electronic device for producing an aerosol for inhalation by a person. An enclosed air passageway is defined by the cartridge assembly and by the handheld base assembly, which isolates the airflow from the electronics of the device. The enclosed air passageway extends between the opening of the mouthpiece for taking a breath and a diaphragm of the handheld base assembly, movement of the diaphragm changing the air pressure within an enclosed interior space having a pressure sensor for trigging the pressure sensor when a breath is taken.

Abstract: An electronic device includes a mouthpiece, a bladder, and a mesh assembly having a mesh material and a piezoelectric material. The mesh material is in contact with a liquid of the bladder. The mouthpiece, the bladder, and the mesh assembly are located in-line along a longitudinal axis of the device between opposite longitudinal ends of the device, with the mesh assembly extending between and separating the mouthpiece and the bladder. A liquid-filled cartridge also is disclosed for use with an electronic device and includes a bladder; and a liquid contained within the container for aerosolizing and inhaling by a person using the electronic device. The liquid includes an aqueous formulation including a saline component, an acid component, and a nicotine component. The acid component includes a lactic acid. The aqueous formulation optionally includes one or more of a menthol component, an ethanol component, and a surfactant component.

Abstract: A leash attachment and method for using the leash attachment are provided. The leash attachment has a built-in flip open cup that allows an animal to drink from the flip open cup once liquid is expelled to the distal end of the cup via a nozzle. Unused liquid form the flip open cup drains back via a funnel into the leash attachment by way of a fill hole. The leash attachment attaches to a leash via a rolling cam with ridges on the cam's outer surface.

Abstract: A grooming device having a base plate, a reciprocating plate, and a biasing mechanism. The base plate includes a plurality of grooves configured for guiding hair into a plurality of grooves of the reciprocating plate. The grooves of the reciprocating plate are disposed in sliding abutment with the grooves of the base plate and are configured as cutting edges for shearing or cutting the hair extending through the grooves of the base plate.
