Definitions

  • the present invention relates generally to electronic smoking devices, electronic cigarettes, and similar vaporizing devices and methods.
  • An electronic smoking device such as an electronic cigarette (e-cigarette) typically has a housing accommodating an electric power source (e.g. a single use or rechargeable battery, electrical plug, or other power source), and an electrically operable atomizer.
  • the atomizer vaporizes liquid supplied from a reservoir and converts liquid into a vapor or aerosol.
  • Control electronics control the activation of the atomizer.
  • an airflow sensor is provided to detect a user puffing on the device (e.g., by sensing an under-pressure or an air flow pattern through the device). The airflow sensor signals the puff to the control electronics to power up the device and generate vapor.
  • a switch is used to switch on the electrically operable atomizer.
  • the electrically operable atomizers often use a resistance heater to heat the liquid.
  • Resistance heaters in the form of a wire coil have been widely used in many e-cigarette designs.

While these and others have been successfully used in the past, they also present performance considerations including, depending on the specific design, corrosion or build-up of residue on the heating element, short and long term changes in electrical resistance, and other factors which may affect the generation of vapor. Accordingly, engineering challenges remain in the design of e-cigarettes and specifically in the design of atomizers as used in e-cigarettes.
  • a vaporizing device in one aspect of the present invention, includes a housing containing an electrical power source such as a battery electrically connected to a high frequency oscillation circuit.

The vibration generates heat within the liquid causing the liquid to change into vapor.
