The refill container includes a body, an opening in the body, and a first interlocking ring including at least one groove or at least one protrusion therein. The reservoir is configured to contain a pre-vapor formulation and includes a reservoir body, an opening in the reservoir body, and a second interlocking ring including at least one groove or at least one protrusion therein at an opening of the reservoir. The first interlocking ring is configured to mate with the second interlocking ring so as to release the pre-vapor formulation from the refill container to the reservoir.

A liquid conducting cotton atomization unit, including a heating member, a liquid conducting cotton and at least one supporting tube. The liquid conducting cotton is axially inserted in the heating member. The supporting tube is inserted in the liquid conducting cotton parallel to an axial direction thereof. The heating member includes a heating portion and two electrode portions respectively connected to two ends of the heating portion, the supporting tube is provided with at least one liquid outlet hole communicated with the heating portion. Liquid is conducted via the supporting tube, and is guided to the heating portion-via the liquid outlet hole, to solve the problem of high temperature and insufficient service life caused by insufficient liquid supply in center of the heating member. Meanwhile, the supporting tube can expand the outer diameter of the liquid conducting cotton, making the liquid conducting cotton fully contact with the heating member.

A heating element (18) for a heating element carrier (10) of an electrically operated heat gun (100). The heating element carrier (10) is designed to receive the heating elements (18). The heating elements comprise a resistance wire (34) with a cross-sectional surface A and a cross-sectional perimeter U, where (4πA)U2<1.

A heated hand garment includes a body having a wrist section, and a plurality of digit sections extending therefrom. The heated hand garment further includes a heating element positioned on the body and operable to heat at least a portion of a hand of a user. The heating element includes a connecting portion configured to be positioned on the wrist section, a first digit portion extending from one end of the connecting portion, and a second digit portion extending from an opposite end of the connecting portion. The first digit portion is positioned on a first digit section of the plurality of digit sections, and the second digit portion is positioned on a second digit section of the plurality of digit sections.

A handheld evaporation apparatus having an evaporating heating element and a housing that encases the evaporating heating element. The evaporating heating element is adapted to achieve a temperature ranging from 250 to 2000 degrees Fahrenheit by heating and differential material composition. The housing includes a first end having an opening that allows heated air provided by the evaporating heating element to exit out through the first end. The housing further includes one or more air ducts on an outer surface of the housing, where the one or more air ducts allow ambient air outside the housing to enter into the housing and flow past the evaporating heating element so as to be heated by the evaporating heating element. In one example, the housing's first end has a semi-ovoid shape that presses against and seals a hemispherical-shaped case. In another example, the housing's first end includes an elastic band that surrounds the opening and presses against the inner surface of the bowl to create a substantially airtight seal.

A heat conductor and a heated media line having an inner tubular fluid line and at least one heat conductor arranged on the periphery thereof. The heat conductor is formed by a braid made of twisted individual wires and, in particular, an outer protective sheath surrounding the heat conductor and the fluid line. The braid is formed by at least six individual wires surrounding a support element, of which at least one individual wire is made of a copper-nickel (CuNi) alloy, and the remaining individual wires are produced from copper (Cu) or from a nickel-chromium (NiCr) alloy. All of the individual wires have the same diameter.
