20170359858 · 2017-12-14 · ·

The present application is disclosed an atomizing component and an electronic cigarette. The atomizing component comprises a light-permeable e-liquid storage sleeve. An atomizing core is detachably connected to an end of the e-liquid storage sleeve. A fastening element for restricting radial expansion of the e-liquid storage sleeve is sleeved at where the e-liquid storage sleeve is insertedly connected to the atomizing core. An end of a ventilation pipe opposite to the atomizing core is a smoke emitting outlet in communication with a suction nozzle. An e-liquid filler hole is extended from the end of the ventilation pipe provided with the smoke emitting outlet. The smoke emitting outlet and the e-liquid filler hole are located on planes of different heights; while e-liquid is being added, the outer circumferential wall of the ventilation pipe blocks the e-liquid splashed accidentally, thus preventing the e-liquid from being splashed into the ventilation pipe.

Elastic band powered fluid delivery apparatus
09839746 · 2017-12-12 ·

This invention relates to a fluid delivery apparatus, system and method, in particular the use of elastic bands to generate the force required to push fluid out from a container. The fluid that is delivered from the container maybe prefilled and stored prior to its actuation by the elastic band driver or it could be filled just before use. In one embodiment disclosed, a prefilled option would require the user to attach an appropriate extension tubing that acts as a flow control tube to the fluid container which in one embodiment is tubular shaped. In the application where the device is filled just before use, the fluid container that would be engaged with the actuating housing is presented with a fixed rate flow tube. The selection of a particular device configuration replaces the need for programming a flow rate into an electronic syringe pump.

Therapeutic delivery device

A therapeutic delivery device that provides a controlled release of high doses of a therapeutic agent in a local area, sustains the high dose controlled release with a percutaneous port for refilling the device, and is versatile for use with multiple types of therapeutic agents and/or implant systems. A rate determining/controlled release membrane is used to decrease the molecular mobility of the therapeutic compounds thereby controlling the therapeutic release profile. The therapeutic delivery device includes a body defining an internal reservoir for receiving a therapeutic agent and including a first membrane for providing a controlled release of the therapeutic agent to the surgical site, a port in fluid communication with the reservoir, a sleeve configured to encapsulate the body, and a rigid housing configured to support the body and a portion of the sleeve, the rigid housing configured to release the body and the sleeve after the body and the sleeve are anchored position relative to the surgical site.

Apparatus, system and method for fluid delivery

A fill adapter system for an infusion pump assembly. The system includes a reusable fill adapter base, the base including a volume control mechanism to adjust an available fill volume of a reservoir of the infusion pump assembly and a pump mechanism configured to pump air into a fluid vial. The system also includes a vial adapter assembly including a first needle configured to penetrate a septum of the fluid vial for fluidly coupling the pump mechanism to the fluid vial and a second needle having a first end configured to penetrate the septum of the fluid vial and a second end configured to penetrate a septum of the reservoir of the infusion pump assembly to allow transfer of fluid from the fluid vial to the reservoir of the infusion pump assembly in response to air being pumped into the fluid vial and a needle carriage adapted to carry the first needle and the second needle, wherein the needle carriage slidably attached to the interior of the vial adapter assembly, wherein the needle carriage adapted to slide from a vial end of the vial adapter to a receptacle end of the vial adapter.

CONTAINER FOR AN AEROSOL GENERATING DEVICE
20170347709 · 2017-12-07 · ·

A container for an aerosol generating device comprises receiving means for receiving the aerosol generating device. One or more tanks are each arranged to retain a substance in use. For each tank, there is dispensing means for controllably transferring the substance from the tank to the aerosol generating device while the aerosol generating device is in the container.

Compression element driven fluid delivery apparatus
09833568 · 2017-12-05 ·

The present invention relates to a medical apparatus, methods and system for fluid medication delivery. The apparatus has a drive mechanism module and a fluid container engaged to the drive mechanism. The drive mechanism includes a resilient member compressed to act against a gasket movably disposed in the fluid container. When extending to its original shape, the resilient member pushes the gasket to move inside the fluid container to eject the fluid out of the fluid container. The fluid container is connected to a flow restrictor tube that allows a predetermined flow rate of medication to be infused or injected to a patient.

ELECTRONIC VAPORISER SYSTEM
20230180826 · 2023-06-15 ·

A case for an electronic cigarette vaporiser, the case including an automatic lifting mechanism that lifts the vaporiser up a few mm from the case to enable a user to easily grasp the vaporiser and withdraw it from the case. The lifting mechanism can be spring- based. The case both re-fills the vaporiser with liquid and also re-charges a battery in the vaporiser.

AEROSOL PRECURSOR COMPOSITION MIXING SYSTEM FOR AN AEROSOL DELIVERY DEVICE

The present disclosure relates to an aerosol delivery device filling system. The system includes multiple source containers each respectively including a differing aerosol precursor composition. The system further includes a mixing container configured to engage the source containers to receive and mix the aerosol precursor compositions to form a mixed aerosol precursor composition. An aerosol delivery device may engage the mixing container to receive at least a portion of the mixed aerosol precursor composition. A related method for customizing an aerosol precursor composition is also provided.

Device for injecting a liquid product comprising two half-shells rotatably mobile relative to each other
09827370 · 2017-11-28 · ·

The present invention concerns a device for injecting a liquid product contained in a bag, the device comprising a housing consisting of two half-shells articulated about an axis of rotation in order to allow the relative movement of the half-shells relative to each other between: —an open position in order to put the bag in place and—a closed position for injecting the liquid product contained in the bag, remarkable in that: —one of the half-shells comprises a deformable bladder—called the “active bladder”—having a volume that varies under the action of a hydraulic ram supplying said bladder with hydraulic fluid, and—the other of the half-shells comprises a deformable damping cushion having a constant volume—called the “passive cushion”.

Method of assembling a simulated cigarette

A method of assembling a tubular simulated cigarette, the method comprising providing an elongate hollow housing having an inhaling end and a refill end; inserting an outlet valve tube, a dip tube and a support from the refill end so that the support supports the proximal end of the dip tube in the housing; inserting a refill valve into the refill end and fixing it in place to form a composition reservoir with the dip tube placing the reservoir in fluid communication with an outlet orifice when the outlet valve tube is open; inserting a valve element into a recess in the side of the housing so that the valve element is positioned to selectively close the outlet valve tube; inserting a breath operated valve actuation mechanism laterally into the recess; and applying a cover to the recess.
