Evaporator unit for an inhaler having a wick structure with a shaft and a collar

The invention relates to an evaporator unit for an inhaler, in particular an electronic cigarette product, comprising an electrically operable heating body, in particular a flat heating body, which has an inlet side and an outlet side, and a plurality of microchannels, each of which extends from the inlet side to the outlet side through the heating body. The heating body is designed to evaporate liquid being transferred through the microchannels by applying a heating voltage. A porous and/or capillary wick structure is arranged on the inlet side of the heating body, said wick structure being fluidically connected or connectable to a liquid store. The wick structure has a shaft which extends through a passage opening of the support, and a collar, which is arranged between the support and the heating body, wherein the diameter of the collar is greater than the diameter of the passage opening of the support.

SHORT-CIRCUIT AND LEAK PROOF VAPORIZING DEVICES AND METHODS OF USE OR MANUFACTURE THEREOF
20230210174 · 2023-07-06 ·

This disclosure relates generally to vaporizing devices having short-circuit and leak proof capabilities. Specifically, embodiments of the present disclosure provide vaporizing devices including an atomizer wrapped with a non-woven wick and received by a distal cavity in a center post. The non-woven wick is in fluid communication with a reservoir, placing the atomizer also in fluid communication with the reservoir. Fluid travels from the reservoir, through the wick, to the atomizer to be atomized, and vaporized fluid can be pulled proximally out of the vaporizing device. A clearance of approximately 1.0 to 2.5 mm separates a top surface of the atomizer from a top surface of the distal cavity. The vaporizing devices additionally include an electrode (e.g., an anode) in electrical communication with an anode wire of the atomizer. An insulating sleeve maintains the position of the anode wire against the electrode, allowing for good electrical conductivity and communication.
