Description
- The present disclosure relates generally to a holder for an electronic vaping device.
- Vaping devices (also referred to as e-cigarettes or vaporizers) are battery-powered devices that are capable of delivering vapor that includes nicotine or another active ingredient. Typically, a vaping device includes a heating element, called an atomizer, powered by a lithium-ion battery that vaporizes an aqueous solution of glycerol or propylene glycol, flavouring, and nicotine. The vapor, which appears similar to a cloud of smoke, is provided to the user through a mouthpiece. Most vaping devices are handheld and about the size of a large pen; hence, these vaping devices are referred to as vape pens.
- Although small and compact, vaping devices such as vape pens are somewhat fragile and can be damaged. For instance, dropping a vape pen can cause it to break. Likewise, vaping devices are susceptible to exposure to the environment. For instance, in the winter the liquid used by the device can freeze if exposed to the cold. To protect against damage, vaping devices must be carefully carried.
- A holder for a vaping device is disclosed herein. The holder comprises a housing body having an operative top end and an operative bottom end. The housing body is configured to have a shape complementary to the vaping device for snugly accommodating the vaping device therein. The housing body is closed at the operative bottom end and can be opened at the operative top end. A foldable cover is configured at and extends from the operative top end of the housing body for closing the open end of the housing body. Fastening means are configured on the foldable cover and the operative top end of the housing body for fastening the foldable cover to the operative top end of the housing body. The fastening means can include hook-and-loop fasteners, a snap button, a magnet, or a string, for example. The housing body can include an outer aesthetic layer and an inner cushion layer. Advantageously, the housing body protects the vaping device from shock due to accidental falls while also keeping the vaping device insulated from the surrounding temperatures.
