A multi-segment, heated hose has temperature sensors at or near the outlet of each hose segment. Each hose segment also has separate means for heating a fluid in the hose segment. A heater power controller receives temperature data from each temperature sensor and independently adjusts the power to the heater in each hose segment to obtain and maintain a preselected fluid temperature at the outlet of each hose segment.

This invention relates to a system, including an apparatus and method, for dispensing a heated personal lubricant. An enclosure houses all components of the system including a frame member for mounting internal components in a proper geometry; batteries; a disposable cartridge having a canister of personal lubricant; a delivery system including a stepper motor, linear actuator and drive shaft for positively urging a plunger to dispense a small amount of heated oil from the dispenser through a pressure release valve; and printed circuit boards with a microprocessor to control the system.

The present invention solves some of the problems of the prior art by providing a method, system and apparatus for readily refilling the reservoir of a smoking-substitute device with liquid from a dispenser. The method, system and apparatus of the present invention prevents liquid from being dispensed until the dispenser is securely and sealably engaged to the smoking-substitute device, provides independent liquid and gas pathways between the dispenser and reservoir, and substantially alleviates the problems of spillage and/or leakage when dispensing liquid from the dispenser into the reservoir of the smoking-substitute device.

The present invention provides a method, system and apparatus for refilling a reservoir of a smoking-substitute device with liquid from a dispenser.

The present invention relates to a system and assembly for refilling a reservoir with liquid dispensed from a dispenser, in particular, but not exclusively, to a system and assembly for the substantially leak-free refilling of the reservoir of a smoking-substitute device with a liquid comprising nicotine from a refill dispenser. The assembly is configured to provide a gas communication pathway through the assembly and physically separate from the liquid communication pathway for venting gas from an end of the assembly proximal the first aperture to an exterior of the assembly responsive to the movement of the assembly to the secured and open configuration, the assembly configured to close the gas communication pathway in the unsecured and closed configuration

A filling system for an electronic cigarette (10) is disclosed in which a nozzle (38) of a liquid dispenser (80) contains a plunger (62) which is biased by a spring (60) into a closed position in which liquid is prevented from flowing through the nozzle (38). In use the nozzle (38) is inserted into an open end (42) of a liquid reservoir (34) for an electronic cigarette containing an air tube (32). The plunger (62) engages with the end of the air tube (32) blocking the air tube (32) and opening the liquid flow path through the nozzle (38). The arrangement of the plunger (62) and nozzle (38) is such that operation of the plunger (62) only occurs when the nozzle (38) engaged within a liquid reservoir (32). A membrane (96) can be provided to prevent leakage from the liquid reservoir (34) when the nozzle (38) is disengaged.

A multi-functional wet wipe supply device relates to the technical field of daily necessities and solves the technical problem that the prior art is inconvenient in use and prone to cause pollution. The device comprises a base, a wet wipe compartment, a liquid storage compartment and a controller. A turnplate, and a wipe pushing rod are positioned on the base. A plurality of vertical cylindrical wipe positioning holes are positioned in axial symmetry in the turnplate. The wet wipe compartment is fixed on the base and located on the periphery of the turnplate. The liquid outlet of the liquid storage compartment is in communication with the inner cavity of the wet wipe compartment through a wet wipe liquid inlet valve, a wet wipe liquid supply pump and a wet wipe liquid outlet valve in sequence. The device provided by the present invention is particularly suitable for use in public places.

A novel portable mosquito dispeller comprises a shell, wherein a battery case is fixedly mounted in the shell, a battery is received in the battery case, a lower portion of the battery case is flat, a base is screwed at a bottom of the shell such that receiving cavities for receiving mosquito-repellent mats are defined by the battery case, the shell and the base, first studs and second studs are disposed on an upper portion of the battery case, a circuit board is fixedly connected to the first studs with screws and is provided with atmosphere lights, an indicator light and a switch button, a top cover is fixed to the second studs with screws to mount a PTC heating element/heating film bracket between the circuit board and the top cover, and a PTC heating element/heating film electrically connected to the circuit board is disposed in the PTC heating element/heating film bracket. The mosquito dispeller is compact in structure, easy to assemble and low in production cost, uses the battery as a power supply, adopts environmentally-friendly PTC to convert electric energy into heat energy to heat mosquito-repellent mats to be volatilized to dispel mosquitoes, and is convenient to carry, exquisite in appearance, and capable of meeting diversified market requirements.
