A standoff assembly for use in terminating a plurality of resistive heaters disposed within a fluid vessel includes a pressure adapter plate, an electrical enclosure adapter plate, and a plurality of conduits. An end portion of each of the resistive heating elements extends through the pressure adapter plate. The electrical enclosure adapter plate is spaced apart from the pressure adapter plate to define a dry volume therebetween. The conduits are secured to the pressure adapter plate and the electrical enclosure adapter plate. Each conduit is aligned concentrically with each of the resistive heating elements. An electrical termination portion of each resistive heating element is disposed within the conduit.

A connector includes a shell, an insert that fits within the shell, and a socket that extends within the insert. The socket includes a hood, a body within the hood, an annular tine extending from the body within the hood, an annular lip extending around the tine adjacent an end of the tine, and a cavity formed within the tine.

An atomizer for an electronic cigarette and an electronic cigarette are presented. The atomizer comprises a substrate, a heating device and a cover member. The substrate is provided with a mounting space. One end of the heating device is inserted into the mounting space and partially extends to the outside through the substrate to form a controlling member, and the other end is exposed to the outer surface of the substrate. When the controlling member is pressed into the substrate by an external pressing force, the heating device is pushed to move toward the outside of the substrate along the mounting space and partially extends out of the substrate. The cover member is detachably mounted to the substrate and covers the controlling member. The technical solution of the present invention is convenient for the user to disassemble and replace the heating device inside the atomizer, effectively saving the use cost.

The invention relates to a device for electrically heating (1) a liquid, comprising a heating body (11), and a housing (3) defining, at least in part, a chamber (30) for circulating the liquid, the heating body (11) comprising at least one electric heating element (7, 9) extending in the chamber (30) and attached to an inner wall of the device defining, at least in part, the chamber (30) for circulating the liquid, so as to form a first mechanical connection. According to the invention, the electric heating device (1) comprises at least one mechanical connecting element (21) arranged in the chamber (30) and mechanically connecting the at least one electric heating element (7, 9) to an inner surface of the housing (3) extending opposite the heating body (11), so as to form a second mechanical connection separate from the first mechanical connection.

There is provided an aerosol generating system, the system comprising: aerosol generating means; aerosol delivery means; and an aerosol guiding device (1). The aerosol guiding device comprises a chamber having an air inlet (14) and an air outlet (12) and the aerosol delivery means is configured such that aerosol is introduced from the aerosol generating means into the chamber in use. An airflow route is defined from the air inlet to the air outlet so as to convey the aerosol to the air outlet, and the relative dimensions of the air inlet and the air outlet are selected to provide pressure control means for controlling the pressure differential between the air inlet and the air outlet.
