  • Publication number: 20230389131
    Abstract: Disclosed herein are methods and systems to vaporize plant material including utilizing a removable disposable cartridge into a case with a receiver. Multiple zones allow for efficient heating. The receiver is configured to support heating elements and transfers heat to a containment portion of the cartridge. Heat zones can direct heat to different areas of the containment portion at a sufficient temperature to vaporize resins or oils on plant material for inhalation via the cartridge.

  • Patent number: 11647566
    Abstract: Disclosed herein are methods and systems to vaporize extract, plant material containing organic material and the like, including a removable carriage with a chamber having an annular wall with and an open side within the removable carriage. The chamber having at least one intake inlet fluidly connected with the chamber and at least one outlet configured to connect the chamber to an inhalation opening. The carriage fits into a base which includes a controller and power supply. The base provides at least two heating elements oriented to cover the open side of the chamber when the carriage is fully inserted, an insulator separating the two heating elements; and, two temperature sensors each one in thermal contact with a heating element and in signal communication with the controller.

  • Publication number: 20230036069
    Abstract: Disclosed herein are aspects of portable vaporizers to deliver aliquots of heated air to material in a furnace. The furnace is multipurposed reducing heat loss, air leakage and delays in availability of air aliquots at the proper temperature for use. By dividing the furnace with an air permeable divider and placing material in the chamber a controller selectively providing electrical power to a heating element configured to heat air furnace. Upon application of suction to the fluid passage heated air passes through a divider which shapes the head of the heated plume before the aliquot of air reaches the material. A controller in signal communications with at least one temperature sensor controls the power flow to a heater to control the temperature produced by heating element(s).

  • Patent number: 11534560
    Abstract: Disclosed herein are aspects of portable vaporizers to deliver aliquots of heated air to material in a unitary furnace. The furnace is multipurposed reducing heat loss, air leakage and delays in availability of air aliquots at the proper temperature for use. By dividing the unitary furnace with an air permeable divider and placing material in the chamber a controller selectively providing electrical power to a heating element configured to heat air in at least an upper region of the unitary furnace. Upon application of suction to the fluid passage heated air passes into the material and vaporizes organic oils in the material and said heating a volume of air inside a unitary furnace vaporized material can be withdrawn from the fluid passage.

  • Publication number: 20220386700
    Abstract: Methods and systems to control, limit or stop vapor flow through a vaporizer cartridge and tip. A vapor barrier blocking member affixed to a vapor source and having flexible walls are at rest unless displaced by sufficient predetermined force to unblock a blocked a vapor outlet. Said vapor barrier is attached to a cartridge or device whereby most children under a predetermined chronological age cannot apply sufficient force to remove the vapor barrier nor sufficient force to open the valve in the barrier.
