Definitions

  • the present invention relates to an apparatus adapted for dispensing an aerosol, in particular to an apparatus adapted for varying a multi flavored aerosol.
  • Devices for dispensing aerosol can be used in various ways.
  • One example is the use for spraying droplets of a liquid containing at least one active ingredient, such as nicotine for example. It may be desirable for a user to easily vary the combination of flavors in the aerosol. Users which prefer variation in the flavors in the aerosol over different spray application instances would have a burden to carry more than one spray.
  • an apparatus adapted for dispensing an aerosol that enables a user to easily vary a multi flavored aerosol.
  • the apparatus is configured for enabling a user to selectively add at least one further aerosol.
  • Figure 1 shows a schematic perspective view of an exemplary embodiment of the present invention.

  • the apparatus comprises a first aerosol dispenser unit 101, a second aerosol dispenser unit 102 and a third aerosol dispenser unit 103.
  • Each of the aerosol dispenser units 101, 102, 103 comprises a liquid storage container (not shown) adapted to store a liquid, an activator (not shown) and a spray nozzle 51, 52, 53.
  • the activator may be arranged to initiate the activation of a spray nozzle 51, 52, 53 when a user moves the apparatus in close proximity to an open mouth which may be detected by an appropriate sensor, however, in some embodiments such activator could be replaced by a push button and a user could cause the spray nozzle 51, 52, 53 to activate by pressing on the button. In other embodiments other means for activating the device could be provided.
  • liquid from the liquid storage container is dispensed to the spray nozzle 51, 52, 53 which transforms the dispensed liquid into the aerosol. Thereby the aerosol is sprayed in a spray direction.
  • the liquid may be dispensed from the liquid storage container to the spray nozzles 51, 52, 53 by using a dispensing unit.
  • the liquid storage container may be a capsule filled with a liquid.
  • the liquid storage container may also be any other kind of receptacle such as a tank system that can have an arbitrary form or shape and also be located in an arbitrary position inside a housing of each of the aerosol dispenser units 101, 102, 103.
  • the liquid may be flavored or flavorless and may include glycerol.
  • the liquid may also include propylene glycol, triethylene glycol, polyhydric alcohol, tetraethylene glycol, aliphatic ester of carboxylic acid, such as methyl stearate, dimethyl dodecanedioate, dimethyl tetradecanedioate, water and the like.
  • Each of the liquid storage containers may carry a flavoured material respectively.
  • Each of the aerosol dispenser units 101, 102, 103 may carry different flavoured materials (contained in the liquid), for example where a first flavoured material contained in the liquid of the liquid storage container of the first aerosol dispenser unit 101 is a menthol extract, a second flavoured material contained in the liquid of the liquid storage container of the second aerosol dispenser unit 102 is a vanilla extract while a third flavoured material contained in the liquid of the liquid storage container of the third aerosol dispenser unit 103 is a combination of nicotine and caffeine.
  • any kinds of flavoured materials may be carried by the liquid storage containers of the aerosol dispenser units 101, 102, 103.
  • esters such as isoamyl acetate, linalyl acetate, isoamyl propionate, linalyl butyrate and the like; natural essential oils as plant essential oils, such as spearmint, peppermint, cassia, jasmine and the like; animal essential oils, such as musk, amber, civet, castor and the like; simple flavouring materials, such as anethole, limonene, linalool, eugenol and the like; hydrophilic flavour components such as a leaf tobacco extract or natural plant flavouring materials such as licorice, St.
  • John's wort, a plum extract, a peach extract and the like acids such as a malic acid, tartaric acid, citric acid and the like; sugars such as glucose, fructose, isomerized sugar and the like; and polyhydric alcohols such as propylene glycol, glycerol, sorbitol and the like.
  • acids such as a malic acid, tartaric acid, citric acid and the like
  • sugars such as glucose, fructose, isomerized sugar and the like
  • polyhydric alcohols such as propylene glycol, glycerol, sorbitol and the like.
  • the activator may comprise a pump for pumping air into the liquid storage container thereby expelling the liquid.
  • the activator may comprise a valve and the liquid is contained in the liquid storage container under pressure.
  • each of the aerosol dispenser units 101, 102, 103 share a common modular arrangement.
  • each of the aerosol dispenser units 101, 102, 103 comprises, on one of two opposing sides, a coupling element 201, 202, 203 and, on the other of the two opposing sides, a counter-coupling element 301, 302, 303.
  • the opposing sides are parallel to the spray direction and each other, but the invention is not limited thereto.
  • the coupling elements 201, 202, 203 are formed as tongues or as keys in the form of protrusions which extend in an extension direction.
  • the counter-coupling elements 301, 302, 303 are formed as corresponding grooves or slots which extend in said extension direction.
  • the extension direction is perpendicular to the spray direction, but the invention is not limited thereto.
  • the coupling elements 201, 202, 203 are undercut thereby having a protrusion.
  • sections perpendicular to the extension direction through the coupling elements 201, 202, 203 reveal dovetail-profiles, or dovetail-forms, of the coupling elements 201, 202, 203.
  • sections perpendicular to the extension direction through the counter-coupling elements 301, 302, 303 reveal corresponding grooves formed as dovetail-profiles, or dovetail-forms, of the counter-coupling elements 301, 302, 303.
  • exemplary embodiments of the present invention comprise other undercut profiles, for example a T-profile.
  • the grooves of the counter-coupling elements 301, 302, 303 are formed as an elongated slot and the protrusion of the coupling elements 201, 202, 203 are formed as a corresponding key that can be forcibly inserted into the respective groove and forcibly removed from the respective groove.
  • the size and shape of coupling elements 201, 202, 203 and counter-coupling elements 301, 302, 303 is selected such to assure that pairs of corresponding coupling elements/counter-coupling elements are firmly fixed to each other to be in a locked state but can be conveniently removed or released from each other by a user to be in an unlocked state.
  • the size of the protrusions of the coupling elements 201, 202, 203 is slightly smaller than the size of the grooves of the counter-coupling elements 301, 302, 303.
  • a clearance of the protrusions inside the grooves may be less than 1 mm, more preferably less than 0.5 mm and still more preferably less than 0.1 mm along a direction perpendicular to a longitudinal direction of the protrusions/grooves.
  • the coupling elements 201, 202, 203 and counter-coupling elements 301, 302, 303 completely extend along a side of each of the aerosol dispenser units 101, 102, 103 which allows improved characteristics of coupling the coupling elements 201, 202, 203 and counter-coupling elements 301, 302, 303 in and out along upper or lower edges of the side surfaces of the aerosol dispenser units 101, 102, 103. That is, a user is able to easily fix two aerosol dispenser units 101, 102, 103 to one another by contacting respective edges and aligning longitudinal axes of two aerosol dispenser units 101, 102, 103 thereby engaging respective coupling and counter-coupling elements.
  • upper and lower terminal portions of the coupling elements 201, 202, 203 and the counter-coupling elements 301, 302, 303 are flushed with the upper and lower surfaces of the housing of at least one (preferably each) of the aerosol dispenser units 101, 102, 103 which results in improved coupling characteristics while simultaneously achieving a compact design and preventing additional coupling means.
  • the housing of the at least one (preferably each) aerosol dispenser unit 101, 102, 103 is formed of the same material as the respective coupling element 201, 202, 203/ the respective counter-coupling element 301, 302, 303.
  • the respective coupling element 201, 202, 203/ the respective counter-coupling element 301, 302, 303 are integrally formed with the housing of the at least one (preferably each) aerosol dispenser unit 101, 102, 103.
  • at least one (preferably the whole) side surface of the housing, the respective coupling element 201, 202, 203, and the respective counter-coupling element 301, 302, 303 are formed as one piece thereby providing a compact design.
  • the dispenser units 101, 102, 103 have a uniform shape and/or a uniform size. According to an exemplary embodiment, the dispenser units 101, 102, 103 are formed to by symmetric with respect to a longitudinal axis. However, the present invention is not limited to such uniform dispenser units 101, 102, 103 and it is possible to realize other embodiments in which differently sized and/or differently shaped dispenser units are used.
  • the present invention is not limited to such shapes of the the coupling elements 201, 202, 203 and the counter-coupling elements 301, 302, 303 and it is possible to realize other embodiments in which the coupling elements and the counter-coupling elements have a different shape that allows that at least two of the aerosol dispenser units 101, 102, 103 are fixed in a releasably locked manner by a pair of coupling element and counter-coupling element.
  • the coupling element 201 of the dispenser unit 101 can be inserted into the counter-coupling element 302 of one of the remaining dispensers 102, 103 and moved by a user in the extension direction until a distance between the spray nozzles of the dispensers 101, 102 is minimized.
  • dispensers 101, 102 are attached to each other and a common compound dispenser apparatus is realized which allows a user to easily vary the combination of flavors in the aerosol generated by the entirety of the aerosol dispenser units 101, 102, 103 forming the apparatus of the exemplary embodiment of the present invention.
  • the dispenser units 101, 102, 103 may contain liquids of a same active ingredient (such as nicotine) with different flavors (such as vanilla and menthol), different active ingredients (such as nicotine and caffeine) with a same flavor (such as vanilla) or different active ingredients (such as nicotine and caffeine) with different flavors (such as vanilla and menthol). Then, by activating one, both or all of the connected and stacked dispenser units 101, 102, 103, the user is able to select and/or combine the different flavors and/or active ingredients.
  • a same active ingredient such as nicotine
  • flavors such as vanilla and menthol
  • different active ingredients such as nicotine and caffeine
  • a same flavor such as vanilla
  • active ingredients such as nicotine and caffeine
  • the present invention is not limited to such a combination of two or three different active ingredients and two or three different flavors and it is possible to realize other embodiments in which more than three different active ingredients and/or more than three different flavors are combined.
  • the exemplary embodiment discloses three stacked dispenser units 101, 102, 103, however, the present invention is not limited to such a combination of three dispenser units and it is possible to realize other embodiments in which two or more than three dispenser units are utilized.
  • each dispenser unit is formed as a self-contained unit allowing users to use each flavor individually if desired. If users want to make use of more than one flavor as contained in one of the separate self-contained units, they can assemble individual units to create a modular structure. This allows users easy access to multiple flavors when on the go.
