Publication number: 20230354908Abstract: A base for an e-vaping device is configured to couple with multiple cartridges configured to generate separate, respective dispersions. The cartridges may include one or more atomizer assemblies or vaporizer assemblies. The base may include multiple connectors electrically coupled to the power supply. The connectors may be configured to couple multiple dispersion generators to a power supply of the base. The base may include control circuitry configured to independently control dispersion generation by dispersion generators coupled to the base. The control circuitry may independently control dispersion generation by the first and second cartridges based on cartridge information accessed through at least one of the first and second connectors. The control circuitry may control dispersion generation by controlling power supplied to the dispersion generators.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 18, 2023Publication date: November 9, 2023Applicant: Altria Client Services LLCInventors: Ali A. ROSTAMI, Gerd KOBAL, Yezdi PITHAWALLA, David KANE, Christopher S. TUCKER, Peter LIPOWICZ, Jason FLORA, Georgios KARLES, Munmaya K. MISHRA, Catherine BARNES, Richard ARENA

Publication number: 20190307175Abstract: A base for an e-vaping device is configured to couple with multiple cartridges configured to generate separate, respective dispersions. The cartridges may include one or more atomizer assemblies or vaporizer assemblies. The base may include multiple connectors electrically coupled to the power supply. The connectors may be configured to removably couple with various cartridges. Different cartridges may be interchangeably coupled with the connectors. Different cartridges may be swapped from the connectors. The base may include control circuitry configured to independently control dispersion generation by cartridges coupled to the base. The control circuitry may control dispersion generation by controlling power supplied to the cartridges. The control circuitry may control electrical power supplied based on information accessed from one or more of the cartridges.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 24, 2019Publication date: October 10, 2019Applicant: Altria Client Services LLCInventors: Ali A.

Patent number: 5108029Abstract: A reclosable attachment for containers for permitting the contents of the container to be discharged from the container includes a flange member, a cylindrical extension that extends from one side of the flange member, and a cylindrical stem that extends from the opposite side of the flange member. A cap is connected to the flange member and is adapted to be engaged and disengaged with the cylindrical extension in order to permit or prevent the discharge of the contents from the container. A feature is also provided on the reclosable attachment for preventing someone from unknowingly tampering with the container and for preventing the cap from being accidentally opened. Several spaced apart ledges which extend radially outwardly from the outer peripheral surface of the stem can also be provided for maintaining the position of the attachment relative to the container.Type: GrantFiled: December 27, 1990Date of Patent: April 28, 1992Assignee: Capitol Spouts, Inc.Inventors: Robert S. Abrams, H. Carl Smith, Thomas Angelini, Richard Arena, John F. Nash, Jr.
