Disclosed is a child-resistant case for storing vaporizer pen components, such as, cartridges, batteries, and chargers.

Disclosed is a child resistant pre-roll case for storing pre-rolls, lighters, and other accessories or personal items.

The present invention provides a conductive substrate useful for Joule heating, such as in an electronic smoking article. Particularly, the invention provides a resistive heating element formed of a conductive substrate. The conductive substrate comprises an electrically conductive material and a carbonaceous additive, such as a binder material. The conductive substrate is carbonized in that it is subjected to calcining conditions to effectively reduce the carbonaceous additive to its carbon skeleton. It has been found that such carbonized substrate has surprisingly improved resistance properties in relation a substrate of the same formulation that is not carbonized. The carbonized substrate can include an aerosol precursor material. The formed resistive heating element can be included in an electronic smoking article to simultaneously provide resistive heating and aerosol formation with a single, unitary component.

The present invention relates generally to electronic smoking devices and in particular to a tray for at least a portion of an electronic smoking device.

The tray (100) comprises at least one cavity (101) for containing the portion. The tray (100) is configured to be reversibly deformed from a default form into a deformed form by finger interaction with interaction elements of the tray (100) having a distance to each other of at least 90% of the average distance between thumb tip and index finger tip or a middle finger tip of an adult. The tray (100) is configured to return to the default form once the finger interaction is terminated. The default form provides the at least one cavity (101) for containing the portion in an inaccessible manner and the deformed form is required for accessing the portion.

There is described a chain of pouches including: a plurality of pouches each pouch containing aerosolizable material. Each pouch in the chain is connected to at least one other pouch in the chain by a respective weakened region. The chain is arranged to be foldable and breakable at each respective weakened region. Each pouch is porous to enable aerosol to flow through or out of the pouch.

A sterilization box includes a box body with a receiving room for receiving an electronic cigarette therein, a lid including a sterilization device formed on an end towards the receiving room and configured to sterilize the electronic cigarette, and a locking device including a clamping structure, an inserting structure which includes a pressing member, a first spring abutted against the pressing member to push the pressing member to be reset, an inserting member received in and extending out of the receiving room and including a wedge-shaped upper surface to contact with the pressing member which is buckled with the inserting member and then pushing the inserting member to move along a longitudinal direction of the box body for separating from the clamping structure to quickly open the lid and the box body, which can sterilize the electronic cigarette to ensure users' health with a firmly installation and a small footprint thereof.

Rigid pack for rod-shaped articles includes; a parallelepiped-shaped container, which houses the group of articles and has at least a lower wall, a front wall, a rear wall and two side walls; and a support system arranged in the container and has at least a first containing wall, which is parallel to the lower wall and is provided with a plurality of through holes, each engaged by a corresponding smoking article. The support system consists of a first articulated parallelogram having a frame glued to the rear wall of the container, two cranks and a connecting rod, which only rests against the front wall of the container, so that, while the rigid pack is being manufactured, the support system can be formed with the first articulated parallelogram in a flat condition and can subsequently be expanded by opening the first articulated parallelogram by rotation of both cranks.
