Abstract: Disclosed is a vaporization apparatus including a ceramic core having a characteristic, such as porosity, that enables a vaporization substance to seep through the ceramic core, and a heating element configured to heat the ceramic core and generate vapor by atomizing the vaporization substance that seeps through the ceramic core. According to an embodiment of the disclosure, the characteristic of the ceramic core is designed to be non-uniform, with a view to control, at least to some extent, how the vaporization substance seeps through the ceramic core. In this manner, it may be possible to mitigate leakage of the vaporization substance out of the vaporization apparatus.

Abstract: A vaporization apparatus includes an atomizer to generate vapor from a vaporization substance and a channel, in fluid communication with the atomizer, to carry the vapor away from the atomizer. In an embodiment, the atomizer includes a ceramic core, and liquid is prevented from leaking through the channel One or more properties of the vaporization substance and/or one or more properties of the ceramic core may contribute to leakage prevention. In some embodiments, a liquid flow control structure in the channel controls flow of liquid within the channel.

Abstract: An apparatus includes a chamber to store a first vaporization substance, and an atomizer, in fluid communication with the chamber, to generate vapor from the vaporization substance by heating the vaporization substance. Some embodiments include an insulated channel, in fluid communication with the atomizer, to carry the vapor away from the atomizer. An auxiliary heater, to heat the vapor and/or to heat one or more components of the apparatus, could also or instead be provided. A cooler to cool the vapor is provided in some embodiments.

Abstract: A vaporization apparatus includes an atomizer, a channel, and a cooler. The atomizer is provided to generate vapor from a vaporization substance by heating the vaporization substance, and the channel is in fluid communication with the atomizer, to enable fluid flow through the vaporization apparatus. The cooler is provided to cool the fluid.

Abstract: An apparatus includes a first chamber to store a first vaporization substance and an atomizer, in fluid communication with the first chamber, to generate vapor from the first vaporization substance by heating the first vaporization substance. Some embodiments include a channel, in fluid communication with the atomizer, a second chamber to store a second vaporization substance, and a feeder, in fluid communication with the channel and the second chamber, to feed the second vaporization substance from the second chamber to the channel. A heater could be provided in fluid communication with the atomizer, to heat the vapor from the atomizer. The vapor that is heated by the heater could vaporize the second vaporization substance.

Abstract: A vaporization device could contain an amount of vaporization substance that is potentially harmful if ingested. Children may be particularly at risk. Child-resistant covers that releasably engage a chamber of a vaporization device and seal a vaporization substance in the chamber are disclosed. The vaporization device could also include a stem, an atomizer, a base, and a battery compartment. The child-resistant cover could require a user to perform multiple operations to disengage the child-resistant cover from the chamber. These operations could include, for example, one or more of: rotating the child-resistant cover relative to the chamber; pushing at least a portion of the child-resistant cover towards the chamber; compressing a portion of the child-resistant cover; and pulling at least a portion of the child-resistant cover away from the chamber.

Abstract: A vaporization device includes a channel and multiple chambers in fluid communication with the channel. The chambers include a first chamber to store a first vaporization substance, and a second chamber to store a second vaporization substance. The first vaporization substance includes an active ingredient or substance, and the second vaporization substance includes an antidote for the active ingredient or substance.

Abstract: A vaporization device includes a mixer to receive and mix vaporization substances to form a vaporization substance mixture, and an atomizer, in fluid communication with the mixer, to vaporize the vaporization substance mixture. The mixer is an active mixer in some embodiments, and could include a stirring element such as a stirring element that is driven by an electric motor, a magnetic stirring element, or an acoustic stirring element. The mixer could also or instead include a passive mixer with multiple mixing elements to mix the vaporization substances and form the vaporization substance mixture.

Abstract: A dosage device that includes a cannabinoid-containing substance enables controlled addition of the cannabinoid-containing substance to a liquid to produce a cannabinoid-containing liquid for ingestion. In an embodiment, such a dosage device is provided with a container that has a container body holding a liquid and a cover to seal the container body. A dosage device may also or instead be provided with a cover that includes a coupling structure to releasably couple the cover to a liquid container and a seal to seal the container. Other embodiments, including methods of use of a container, methods that involve providing a cannabinoid-containing substance and adding the cannabinoid-containing substance to a cover, and product packages that include multiple covers, are also disclosed.

Abstract: One example of a cannabinoid-containing product includes a cannabinoid-containing liquid for ingestion and an additive for production of a cannabinoid-containing aerosol for inhalation. A container for such a product could include a container body holding the cannabinoid-containing liquid and additive, and a cover to seal the container body. Another type of container includes a container body holding contents that include a liquid for ingestion, a cover to seal the container body, and an aerosolizer packaged with the container to aerosolize a cannabinoid from the contents for airborne delivery of a cannabinoid-containing aerosol for inhalation. Other embodiments, including multi-container packages, uses, and methods of use, are also disclosed.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to an industrial scale manufacturing process for making vape oil containing a cannabinoid, where the vape oil has a viscosity at room temperature suitable for use in a vape device with the dilution of a cannabinoid source with an additive to obtain such viscosity while avoiding reducing the flash point of the mixture below the vaporization temperature of the cannabinoid.

Abstract: Disclosed is a spring motor and control for use especially with window blinds. The motor comprises a storage drum having a first axis, an output drum mounted for rotation about a second axis parallel to and spaced from the first axis. A spring member is connected to and between the storage drum and the output drum to form a spring motor. The spring motor has laterally extending, spaced apart drum supports on opposite sides of the drums to support them for rotation. A coupled drive is connected to the storage and output drum whereby rotation of one of the drums in a first direction about its axis effects rotation of the other of the drums about its axis and in an opposite direction to cause winding and unwinding of the spring member between the drums.

Abstract: A method, apparatus and computer instructions are provided for blocking the installation of a patch. A patch management system is used to recognize files with a selected indicator. A selected indicator may be an identifier distinguishing the file such as size, checksum, name, or a current timestamp. The files with a selected indicator contain signatures that may be cross referenced with patch metadata. The signature of the patch file is validated against policies that indicate the patch has been approved for installation. If the patch is approved the files are installed. In response to a patch being unapproved for installation a locking mechanism locks files targeted by patches based on patch metadata, patch content, and/or patch instructions so that the patch may not be installed.
