Deformable valves and atomizer designs for a vaporizer (e.g., electronic cigarette). The vaporizer may be used for vaporization of liquid and/or organic material. The vaporizer may enable enhanced flow control of fluid and may generate high quality and quantity of vapor efficiently. In some instances, flow path of the vaporizer may allow bulk fluid flow, e.g., in contrast to capillary flow, to deliver fluid to a vicinity of the vaporizer. In some instances, the vaporizer may utilize improved atomizer designs for vaporizing devices, where said designs can be configured optionally, with various embodiments of a breath-modulating deformable valve.

The invention includes a device for smoking smokeable material. The device has a housing with a burning section and an inhalation section, a pusher in the housing for pushing the smokeable material through the burning section. The device also has a threaded rotatable shaft for driving smokeable material towards the first end of the housing as the smokeable material is smoked, and a connector for connecting the mouthpiece to the threaded rotatable shaft, where the connector is rotatable relative to the housing, so that rotation of the connector rotates the threaded rotatable shaft relative to the housing.

The aerosol-generating article (1) comprises a tobacco element and a mouthpiece element. The tobacco element comprises an aerosol-forming substrate (2), a support element (3) arranged downstream of the aerosol-forming substrate (2) and an aerosol-cooling element (4) arranged downstream of the support element. The mouthpiece element comprises a filter segment (5) and a hollow tube (6). The aerosol-cooling element (4) has a length of at most 15 millimeter. A length of the mouthpiece element is adapted according to the length of the aerosol-cooling element (4) such that a total length of the aerosol-generating article (1) is kept at a predefined total length. The invention also relates to a method for manufacturing aerosol-generating articles.

The present invention relates generally to electronic smoking devices and in particular electronic cigarettes. A mouth-piece (14, 114) for an electronic smoking device (10) has an elongated housing having ports (44, 144, 36, 136) at opposite ends; a central passage (32, 132) formed as a hollow channel through the housing in communication with the ports, contact terminals (52, 152) for connecting to a battery of the electronic smoking device (10) and conductive elements (54, 154) connected to the contact terminals (52, 152), the conductive elements (54, 154) being configured for connecting, to the battery (18, 118), an tempering element (50) for tempering an aerosol produced by the electronic smoking device (10). Using the tempering element, aerosol passing through the central passage can be tempered and loss of aerosol due to condensation is reduced.
