  • Publication number: 20220225677
    Abstract: A vaporizer cartridge including a housing with at least one exterior wall and an interior dividing wall. An inlet extends through the exterior wall. The housing defines a payload reservoir, an inlet flow chamber in fluid communication with the inlet, and an outlet flow chamber in fluid communication with the inlet flow chamber. The interior dividing wall is positioned between the payload reservoir and the inlet flow chamber, and the inlet flow chamber is positioned between the exterior wall and the interior dividing wall. A vaporizer having a base and a cartridge as described above configured to removably couple to the base. At least one magnet may releasably couple the cartridge to the base. The cartridge may have an activation chamber separate from the payload reservoir and inlet and outlet flow chambers.

  • Publication number: 20210382974
    Abstract: A vape device system including a payload reservoir that is identified by a payload identifier and that is configured to hold a substance for atomization. A processor is configured to determine an operational setting based on at least one of the payload identifier and a secondary data, which may include user information, prescription information, location information, payload information, historical vape device usage information, and historical payload reservoir information. A vape device system, and method of using the same, that includes a vape device and a computing device that includes the processor. A method of controlling a vape device including determining an operational setting of the vape device based on the payload identifier and/or secondary data. The operational settings may include a duty cycle setting, a temperature setting, an operational time duration, a dosage setting, and a security setting.

  • Publication number: 20200128882
    Abstract: The present invention is directed to a system for tracking and reducing consumption of a substance by a user. The system comprises a vape device comprising a payload reservoir configured to contain a payload to be vaporized, wherein the payload includes the substance, and an atomizer configured to vaporize a portion of the payload during each of a plurality of user inhalations. The system also comprises a software application executable on the computing device, wherein the software application causes the computing device to determine a dosage schedule that causes a reduction in consumption of the substance over a period of time, and control operation of the vape device in accordance with the dosage schedule during a substance reduction period.

  • Publication number: 20090257529
    Abstract: A low power (optionally, self-powered) integrated transceiver using on-chip antennas is provided. The transmitter and receiver utilize phase-locked loops (PLLs) which initially, in a closed-loop state, pre-tune (i.e. phase-lock) voltage controlled oscillators (VCOs) before opening the loops to allow them to transmit and receive data. The TX, in the opened-loop state, disables the loop components while (FM) modulating the VCO. The RX, in the opened-loop state, injection-locks the VCO with the incoming (FM) modulated signal while the remaining loop components serve to demodulate the signal. For both the TX and RX an integrated antenna can be used and, advantageously, the TX comprises a dual purpose inductor which functions as both an inductor in the voltage-controlled oscillator (i.e. in the resonant tank thereof) and the integrated antenna.
