Atomizer and electronic cigarette
10334887 · 2019-07-02 · ·

An atomizer includes a storage member and a cigarette holder. An inductive chamber and an airflow passage are positioned in the storage member. An air suction port is defined on the cigarette holder. The cigarette holder is movably sleeved on an end of the storage member. The cigarette holder can be in a locked state or in an unlocked state with respect to the storage member by moving the cigarette holder. When the cigarette holder is in the locked state, at least one of the inductive chamber and the airflow passage is closed by the cigarette holder. When the cigarette holder is in the unlocked state, the air suction port communicates with both the inductive chamber and the airflow passage.

BIOMETRIC HANDHELD VAPORIZER AND METHOD OF PREVENTING UNDERAGE USE
20190197225 · 2019-06-27 ·

A biometric handheld vaporizer has a housing, a mouthpiece, an oil reservoir, an atomizer, a battery, a battery charging port, a fingerprint sensor, and a microcontroller. The handheld vaporizer remains inoperable until a user submits a photo ID for age verification. One method of using a biometric handheld vaporizer involves inputting fingerprints into the vaporizer, the fingerprints stored on the microcontroller; and, when a user desires to use the vaporizer, placing the authorized fingerprint on the fingerprint sensor, which, upon authorization, closes a circuit to activate an atomizer within the vaporizer.

Compact sized vaping device with a child proofing mechanism
20190166910 · 2019-06-06 ·

A compact vaping device with a child proofing mechanism is provided. The vaping device includes a mouthpiece, battery, vaping liquid pod cartridge, and heating coil. During operation, a user takes a drag on the mouthpiece, the battery heats up the coil which turns the liquid into vapor which may be inhaled by the user. The child proofing mechanism provides solutions preventing the tamper and unauthorized use of the device.

VAPORIZER DEVICE WITH REMOVABLE CARTRIDGE AND APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR FILLING REMOVABLE CARTRIDGE
