Definitions

  • Disposable sealed and pre-filled personal vaporizer cartridge with a built-in atomizer Disposable sealed and pre-filled personal vaporizer cartridge with a built-in atomizer
  • a personal vaporizer is a type of electronic cigarette, or e- cigarette, an electronic apparatus which simulates the sensation of smoking a traditional cigarette and provides an alternative to traditional tobacco products.
  • Some electronic cigarettes are of similar dimensions as traditional cigarettes, while others are slightly larger. All electronic cigarettes function in a similar manner.
  • the electronic cigarette is filled with a liquid solution known as e-liquid, which, when heated up, produces vapor resembling in appearance a tobacco's smoke.
  • the cartridge is made of one piece and comprising: an e-liquid reservoir, an atomization chamber, a coil of resistance wire, most commonly made of NiCr, a mouthpiece and a wick made of silica, organic cotton or ceramic.
  • the present invention relates to an electronic cigarette.
  • Electronic cigarettes are a rapidly expanding segment which is replacing traditional cigarettes.
  • e-cigarettes Two types of e-cigarettes are known, namely basic electronic cigarettes, which most commonly resemble traditional cigarettes in both size and appearance, and advanced electronic cigarettes, also known as personal vaporizers.
  • the difference between them is that personal vaporizers are slightly larger and provide a better user experience.
  • the present invention relates to an advanced electronic cigarette, or personal vaporizer.
  • Electronic cigarettes are categorized according to their mode of operation as either automatic or semi-automatic e-cigarettes.
  • automatic e-cigarettes the atomizer activates automatically when the user inhales on the electronic cigarette.
  • semi-automatic cigarettes the user activates the atomizer by pushing and holding down a button which is normally located on the battery or its housing.
  • Electronic cigarettes are also categorized according to the manner in which they are used as either basic (first-generation) e-cigarettes or advanced e-cigarettes, also known as personal vaporizers, to which the present invention relates.
  • a personal vaporizer provides a better experience than a basic e-cigarette, as it has a longer battery life and better airflow and offers a wider selection of flavors.
  • An essential component of any electronic cigarette is the battery, which is most often rechargeable.
  • the life of the battery depends on its capacity. The larger the capacity of the battery, the longer the electronic cigarette can be used.
  • Nearly every personal vaporizer battery has a standard 510 or eGo thread, or a combination of both types of thread, onto which the atomizer is attachable.
  • Atomizers come in a number of different types, such as atomizers, clearomizers and cartomizers.
  • a common feature of all atomizers is that they turn e-liquid into vapor which resembles smoke in appearance.
  • Some electronic cigarettes also require a mouthpiece or cartridge which contains the e-liquid to operate.
  • An electronic cigarette requires e-liquid to operate.
  • e-liquid In contrast to tobacco, e-liquid is normally only composed of 3 to 4 ingredients: propylene glycol, vegetable glycerin, flavoring and, optionally, nicotine. All e-liquids are available with or without nicotine. All e-liquid ingredients apart from nicotine have been used for a long time in the food industry and are introduced into our bodies on a daily basis via food intake.
  • E-liquids are available in different nicotine strengths and are packaged in 10-ml bottles with a safety cap. Each bottle shows the date of manufacture, the logo of the manufacturer, the name of the flavor and the nicotine content in mg/ml. Due to the high nicotine content, e-liquid bottles are also labelled with the toxic and the dangerous for the environment symbol. Nicotine is anoxic substance which causes addiction and can be fatal in large doses. Nicotine is one of the main ingredients of traditional cigarettes and is also readily absorbed into the body through the skin.
  • the average e-cigarette user consumes 3 to 6 ml of e-liquid per day.
  • One 10-ml bottle therefore lasts for 2 to 4 days.
  • the user needs to carry the bottle with them to refill the atomizer, which is normally equipped with a reservoir with a capacity of 1.50 to 5 ml.
  • the average user uses a vaporizer with a volume of 1.5 to 2.5 ml.
  • the heating coil also needs to be replaced after being used for approximately 20 to 30 ml of e-liquid - or even only 10 ml with complex, premium e- liquids - which results in additional costs for the user.
  • the average user faces several risks when using e-liquids. Firstly, there is a risk of nicotine poisoning when pouring e-liquid into the atomizer. Secondly, there is also a risk of poisoning through ingestion, particularly for children, as e-liquids have a pleasant smell and flavor. Since they are purchased separately, they are also often stored in inappropriate and unsupervised places. Although the packaging presently, used for e-liquids, which most commonly takes the form of a 10-ml bottle, is child-resistant, this does not provide adequate protection.
  • E-liquid is also frequently filled into the atomizer incorrectly, as the filling opening is usually very narrow and the e-liquid is often poured into the mouthpiece by mistake. If that happens, there is a high likelihood of the e-liquid being directly ingested. Even when e-cigarettes are used correctly, e-liquid can escape through improperly sealed joints or leaking seals.
  • Heating coils differ in resistance, and users select them according to the desired vapor density, which complicates sales, as sellers have to offer a wide variety of products.
  • E-liquids are available in various flavors, and every flavor of every e-liquid is available in different nicotine strengths. Sellers thus have to keep a large number of different e-liquids in stock at all times. As a result, a majority of sales are currently made through specialized shops, so-called vape shops, and online. Other channels do not offer this type of equipment or only offer a very limited selection.
  • premium e-liquids are predominantly geared towards advanced vaping equipment and are only produced by a small number of small-scale manufacturers who can presently only sell their e-liquids in bottles. Users of basic electronic cigarettes cannot use this type of e-liquid, as manufacturers of premium e-liquids have not yet begun to collaborate with manufacturers of basic electronic cigarettes.
  • the present invention thus solves several problems. It makes personal vaporizers easier and safer to use.
  • the e-liquid is sealed inside a closed system, i.e. the atomizer, and no longer needs to be poured from an open packaging such as that in which it is presently sold and used for refilling existing atomizers.
  • the delicate and time-consuming task of refilling e-liquid is replaced by a pre-filled cartridge which is simply screwed onto the battery and is then ready to be used. After multiple uses, when it is empty, the cartridge is discarded. The user is thus not exposed to the risk of nicotine poisoning.
  • the present invention solves the above technical problems by providing a sealed vaporizer cartridge pre-filled with e-liquid.
  • the advantage of the vaporizer cartridge according to this invention is that it is an all-in-one product, as the sealed vaporizer cartridge combines all the required elements which currently have to be purchased separately, i.e. an atomizer with a built-in reservoir, a heating head, a battery connector, a mouthpiece and an e-liquid.
  • the present invention introduces a sealed e-liquid cartridge with a built-in atomizer, which is much simpler and thus less expensive to manufacture than the existing products.
  • the e-liquid is packaged into a sealed cartridge, which practically completely eliminates the risk of spillage and makes the vaporizer easier to use.
  • the cartridge is fitted with a connector which enables it to be screwed onto any existing battery with a 510 thread, after which the vaporizer is ready for immediate use.
  • the cartridge comprises a built-in reservoir pre-filled with e-liquid, a mouthpiece, an atomization chamber with a heating element, and a wick which delivers the e-liquid from the reservoir to the heating head.
  • the cartridge may be oval, spherical, square, triangular, conical, cylindrical or of any other useful shape. It may be made of various materials, such as plastic, aluminium, sheet metal etc. The form presented in this document is symbolic in nature, used for demonstrative purposes only, and the actual embodiment of the present invention may differ from it.
  • the cartridge may vary in size according to the amount of e-liquid it contains and is normally filled with 3 to 4 ml of liquid, which suffices for 1 to 4 days of use for an average smoker.
  • Figure 1 shows the exterior appearance of the cartridge
  • Figure 2 shows variant A of the cartridge
  • Figure 3 shows variant B of the cartridge
  • Figure 4 is a longitudinal cross-section of the assembled cartridge
  • Figure 5 shows the means by which the cartridge according to variant B is inserted into the cartridge connector and contact is established to close the electrical circuit between the bottom part of the cartridge and the cartridge connector
  • Figure 6 shows the heating element containing the heating head and wick
  • Figure 7 shows the means by which an electrical circuit is established with the 510 battery connector
  • Figure 8 is a three-dimensional longitudinal cross-section of the bottom part of the cartridge according to variant A
  • Figure 9 is a three-dimensional longitudinal cross-section of the area of contact between the top and the bottom part of the cartridge according to variant B
  • Figure 1 shows a sealed vaporizer cartridge according to the invention comprising a top part 2, which is slightly narrowed at the top and shaped to form a mouthpiece 1, and a bottom part 3 with a battery connector 19.
  • the mouthpiece 1 has an aperture for the flow of air which is narrowed by three smaller apertures 8 in order to prevent the ingress of foreign objects into the air channel 9 when the cartridge is being carried inside a pocket, purse etc.
  • the top part of cartridge 2 also contains an e-liquid reservoir 10 and an air channel 9.
  • the top part 9a of the air channel 9 is widened slightly to slow down the airflow so that less suction power is required. This further reduces the possibility of directly ingesting e-liquid while inhaling the vapor.
  • the lower part 9b of the air channel 9 is fitted with a cover 11 which has a rim 11a along its circumference which engages the recess 13a along the circumference of the atomization chamber 13. This ensures that the atomization chamber 13 is sealed during the assembly of the top part 2 and the bottom part 3 of the cartridge, thereby preventing the e-liquid from flooding the atomization chamber and ensuring the reliable operation of the cartridge.
  • the bottom part 3 of the cartridge consists of a single piece, with the battery connector 19 being an integral part of the bottom part 3 of the cartridge.
  • the battery connector 19 is separated from the bottom part of the cartridge 3 and is part of the cartridge holder 7.
  • the cartridge is inserted into the holder 7 and secured by means of a click-in mechanism so that the cartridge straddles the holder 7, whereas in variant A the entire cartridge is screwed directly onto the battery by means of the connector 19 and is unscrewed and discarded after use. The difference between them is that in variant A the entire cartridge is screwed directly onto the battery by means of the connector 19 and is unscrewed and discarded after use.
  • the holder 7 is screwed onto the battery by means of the connector 19 and the cartridge is then inserted and secured by means of a click-in mechanism.
  • the bottom part of the cartridge 3 comprises an atomization chamber 13, a heating element 5, a wick 27 and an air channel 15 for the inflow of air through the provided aperture 16.
  • the wall 13b of the atomization chamber 13 has two apertures 12 against which the wick 27 rests or into which it is inserted.
  • the heating element 5 comprises a heating head 5a and non-resistance leads 26.
  • the heating head 5a comprises a coil 14 of resistance wire 25.
  • the coil 14 of resistance wire 25 is wound around the wick 27.
  • the heating head 5a and the wick 27 are contained in the atomization chamber 13. E-liquid flows from the reservoir 10 to the wick 27 and then to the coil 14 through the grooves 12a which are made in the housing of the bottom part of the cartridge 3 and through the apertures 12.
  • the coil 14 wound around the wick 27 heats up and vaporizes the e-liquid, which is then delivered from the reservoir 10 into the atomization chamber 13 through the grooves 12a and apertures 12.
  • the user simultaneously draws the air delivered into the cartridge via the aperture 16 through the air channel 9 by inhaling on the mouthpiece 1.
  • the air is delivered through the air channel 15 into the atomization chamber 13, where it mixes with the vaporized e- liquid and simultaneously cools the coil 14, thereby preventing it from overheating.
  • the mixture of air and vaporized e-liquid is delivered through the air channel 9 to the apertures 8 in the mouthpiece 1 and into the user's mouth.
  • resistance 25 and non-resistance 26 wires in the heating element 5 ensures that heat is only produced in the coil 14 of the resistance wire 25, i.e. only in the heating head 5a and not in the non-resistance wires 26 in the side of the heating element 5.
  • the non-resistance wires 26 serve to hold the coil 14 made of resistance wire 25 while simultaneously serving as terminals to establish an electrical circuit when the cartridge is attached to the battery in variant A or inserted into the cartridge holder 7 in variant B.
  • the non-resistance wires 26 are connected to the heating head 5a through the apertures 12b on the bottom rim of the atomization chamber 13.
  • the non-resistance wires 26 run from the direction of the heating head 5a through the apertures 21b and along the inner wall of the air channel 15.
  • the electrical circuit is established by means of a conducting element 18 connected to the positive terminal of the battery.
  • the conducting element 18 is installed into the inner wall of the battery connector 19 at the injection molding stage.
  • the non-resistance wire 26 connected to the conducting element 18 is the positive terminal 28.
  • the non-resistance wire 26 running along the outer wall of the battery connector 19 is the negative terminal 29.
  • the cartridge is made operational by inserting the cartridge into the cartridge holder 7, which is screwed onto the battery, as the atomization chamber 13 is located in the bottom part 3 of the cartridge.
  • the cartridge is made operational by establishing an electrical circuit between the cartridge and the cartridge holder 7 by means of a system of conductors 20, 21, 22 and 23.
  • the conductors 20 and 21 constituting the non-resistance wires 26, which may be made of copper or another conducting material, are installed in the groove 12c on the inner side of the air channel 15 in the bottom part of the cartridge 3 at the injection molding stage.
  • the conductors 22 and 23 on the cartridge holder 7 are inserted into the grooves on the outer side of the air inlet conduit 24.
  • the conducting element 18 for the positive terminal of the battery is inserted into the inner side of the battery connector 19 at the injection molding stage.
  • the conductors 22 and 23 perform the same function as the positive 28 and the negative terminal 29 in variant A.
  • the conductors 22 and 20 for the positive terminal and the conductors 23 and 21 for the negative terminal are simultaneously brought into contact by inserting the air inlet conduit 24 into the air channel 15, thereby closing the electrical circuit and making the cartridge operational.
  • the 510-thread cartridge holder 7 can be made of plastic, alloy, stainless steel or another appropriate material which ensures a more stable construction. In that case, the terminal 28 and the conducting element 18 for the positive terminal must be insulated.
  • the cartridge holder 7 may vary in shape and size and may also take the form of a hollow cylinder into which the cartridge is inserted. The cartridge holder performs a function similar to that of a coffee pot machine.
  • the 510 thread is suitable for the corresponding type of battery. A different thread or even an entirely different battery attachment construction would be used, of course, if the cartridge was to be used with a different type of battery.
  • the wick 27 may be made of various absorbent materials such as silica, organic cotton or ceramic.
  • the most appropriate material is silica, as it does not burn even when not fully saturated with the e- liquid, unlike organic cotton, which needs to be completely saturated with the e-liquid before use. This prevents the cartridge from being destroyed during the first use if the wick 27 is not adequately saturated with the e-liquid due to having been in storage prior to use.
  • NiCr wire is normally used for the resistance wire coil 14. This ensures that the wire is only heated up in the coil 14 in the atomization chamber 13 and not along its entire length, thereby preventing the heating and potential melting of the cartridge material. Given the universal nature of the cartridge, the resistance of the NiCr wire may vary from 0.6 to 2.4 ohms.
  • the portion of the top part 2 of the cartridge surrounding the reservoir 10 is transparent to enable the user to see the amount of e-liquid in the cartridge. This prevents so-called dry hits.
  • a pre-assembled coil 14 of resistance wire 25, a wick 27 and a non-resistance wire 26 are inserted into the bottom part 3 of the cartridge.
  • the bottom part 3 of the cartridge is fitted with the appropriate terminals serving to establish an electrical circuit when the cartridge is inserted into the battery.
  • the terminals serving to establish an electrical circuit when the cartridge is inserted into the battery are fitted in the cartridge holder 7.
  • the reservoir 10 in the top part 2 of the cartridge Prior to the assembly of the cartridge, the reservoir 10 in the top part 2 of the cartridge is filled with the appropriate e-liquid using a dosing and filling machine.
  • the top part 2 of the cartridge is then sealed with the bottom part 3 of the cartridge, with the cover 11 of the atomization chamber 13 engaging the upper rim of the wall 13b of the atomization chamber 13 and the rim of the cover 11a engaging the recess 13a along the circumference of the atomization chamber 13.
  • the two parts of the cartridge are ultrasonically welded together. This method of welding has several advantages, as the joint is hermetically sealed and there is no danger of any kind of harmful substance being introduced into the e-liquid, which is always a risk when components are merely glued together. Because a new heating element, and therefore a new coil 14 of resistance wire 25, is fitted in each cartridge, the user is always provided with a fresh coil 14, which combined with high-quality e-liquid, produces a pleasantly tasting vapor.
  • shrink film Since the manufacturing process is identical for all cartridges, they are later separated according to e- liquid flavor and nicotine strength and packaged in shrink film labelled with all the necessary product information. This is a highly efficient and low-cost method, and shrink film has the added advantage of protecting the mouthpiece from contamination and preventing the potential leakage of e-liquid during storage. Before the cartridge is used for the first time, the film is removed by means of the provided perforations (at the bottom and top of the packaging).
  • the cartridge is preferably made of plastic and manufactured using injection molding by injecting plastic material into the mould cavity through a hot runner.
  • a combination of a high-temperature plastic (such as PTFE) and a plastic which is physiologically harmless and chemically unaffected by flavoring compounds (such as polycarbonate) should be used, as this is the only mean to ensure that the product is safe to use.
  • the portion of the cartridge surrounding the reservoir should be transparent to enable the user to see how much e-liquid still remains in the cartridge. This prevents so-called dry hits.
  • the atomization chamber 13 may be made of aluminium or another appropriate material which is resistant to high temperatures.
  • the cartridge according to the invention may additionally be fitted with a traditional detachable mouthpiece.
  • the top part 2 of the cartridge in the area of the mouthpiece 1 is made with a mounting recess into which a traditional detachable mouthpiece can be inserted.

Abstract

L'objet de la présente invention est de fournir une cartouche de cigarette électronique jetable et scellée pré-remplie avec un liquide à vapoter. L'avantage de la cartouche de cigarette électronique selon la présente invention est qu'elle constitue un produit tout-en-un, étant donné que la cartouche de cigarette électronique scellée combine tous les éléments nécessaires qui doivent actuellement être achetés séparément, c'est-à-dire un atomiseur doté d'un réservoir intégré, une tête chauffante, un connecteur de piles, un embout buccal et un liquide à vapoter. La cartouche est beaucoup plus simple et ainsi moins chère à fabriquer que les produits existants. Le liquide à vapoter est conditionné dans une cartouche scellée, qui élimine pratiquement complètement le risque d'écoulement accidentel, ce qui permet de réduire considérablement le risque d'empoisonnement par la nicotine en raison de l'absorption à travers la peau, et de simplifier l'utilisation de la cigarette électronique. La cartouche est équipée d'un connecteur qui lui permet d'être vissée sur n'importe quelle batterie existante avec un filetage 510, après quoi la cigarette électronique est prête pour une utilisation immédiate. La cartouche comprend un réservoir intégré pré-rempli avec un liquide à vapoter, un embout buccal, une chambre de pulvérisation dotée d'un élément chauffant, et une mèche qui délivre le liquide à vapoter en provenance du réservoir à la tête chauffante.
