AEROSOL DELIVERY SYSTEM
The present disclosure relates to aerosol delivery systems, the system comprising an outer housing, a mouthpiece, an electrical power source, an aerosol generating component and a controller, wherein a portion of at least one of the mouthpiece and the outer housing is configured to move between respective first and second positions in response to the controller detecting a change in one or more operational parameters of the device.
ELECTRONIC CIGARETTE
An electronic cigarette includes a device housing, and an atomizing device disposed in the device housing and an airflow sensor. An airflow path is formed between an air inlet and an aerosol passageway of the device housing so that air outside the electronic cigarette flows into the aerosol passageway through the airflow path. The airflow path includes a first airflow passageway and a second airflow passageway. The first airflow passageway extends along a direction from the air inlet toward the airflow sensor to be spatially communicated with the airflow sensor, and to lead the air outside the electronic cigarette flowing toward the airflow sensor. The second airflow passageway is used to be spatially communicated with the first airflow passageway and the aerosol passageway, respectively, and is used to lead air from the first airflow passageway flowing toward the aerosol passageway along a reverse direction facing away from the airflow sensor.

SMOKING PIPE WITH A DUAL PURPOSE HEAT-SINK AIRFLOW PATH INSERT FOR COOLING SMOKE AND REDUCING PARTICULATE CONTENT OF INHALABLE SMOKE
Embodiments disclosed herein relate to a smoking pipe with a dual purpose heat-sink airflow path insert for cooling smoke and reducing particulate content of inhalable smoke. Improvements in smoke cooling and reduction of particulate content, over known traditional chillums, derive in part from the configuration of a threadably removable airflow path insert inside the tubular sleeve body of the pipe, to increase the airflow path of smoke over other chillums of the same overall length, to serve as a heatsink, to present a circuitous path for the smoke to follow in order to trap particulates, and to increase the surface area inside the pipe that is available for particulates and post-combustion products to adhere to inside the pipe.

Connectors for forming electrical and mechanical connections between interchangeable units in an aerosol delivery system
The present disclosure relates to aerosol delivery devices. In various implementations, the aerosol delivery devices comprise a control device that includes a battery, a control component, and an outer housing that defines receiving chamber, and a cartridge that includes a mouthpiece portion, a tank that contains a liquid composition, and a heater configured to heat the liquid composition. The cartridge and the control device each include at least one connector configured to provide a magnetic and an electrical connection between the cartridge and the control device such that the cartridge can be removably and operatively received into the cartridge receiving chamber of the control body, wherein the at least one connector of the cartridge is located on the mouthpiece portion.

VAPOR DELIVERY SYSTEMS AND METHODS
There is provided an electronically controlled, breath actuated vaporization device for generating vaporized material for inhalation by a user. The vaporization device includes a vaporization chamber for accommodating material to be vaporized and a mesh heater or other heater supported upstream of the vaporization chamber which is operable to heat air that passes through the mesh heater or other heater during an inhalation event. A closed loop control scheme may be employed to control heat generated by the heater to maintain a temperature of the air delivered to the vaporization chamber at or within a predetermined tolerance of a desired vaporization temperature for at least a majority of a duration of the inhalation event.

Smoking device with multi-use combustion chamber
A smoking device has a cylindrical combustion chamber with an axis, a longitudinal channel along the length, a mouthpiece engaging a first end of the combustion chamber, an end cap on a second end of the combustion chamber, and an outer shell with a second longitudinal channel, and one or more openings through the outer shell that may be aligned with the longitudinal channel in the combustion chamber such that smokable material in the combustion chamber may be ignited and smoke drawn from the device through the mouthpiece.
