Benefits of technology

This patent describes an electronic cigarette that has a shell, insert, and mouthpiece component. The shell can be opened and closed and has a bracket on its inside surface and a base connected by a hinge. The insert has a power on / off switch, a more power switch and a less power switch, an atomizer connection, electronic circuitry, and a mouthpiece sanitary, storage cavity. The shell has at least one aperture that allows for easy access to the power on / off switch, the more power switch, the less power switch, and the atomizer connection. The mouthpiece component can be positioned in either the mouthpiece sanitary, storage cavity or the atomizer connection depending on the user's needs. This invention provides a safer and more sanitary environment for the electronic cigarette when not being used for smoking and allows for easy access to the components for smoking purposes.

Problems solved by technology

Differences between atomizers cause differences in the ingredients and their concentrations delivered to users, even when the same liquid is used.
They also greatly affect the quantity or volume of aerosol that will be produced by the atomizer.
Atomizer resistances usually vary from 1.50 (ohms) to 3.00 from one atomizer to the next but can go as low as 0.10 in the most extreme cases of DIY coil building which produce large amounts of vapor but could present a fire hazard and other dangerous battery failures if the user is not knowledgeable enough about basic electrical principles and how they relate to battery safety.
Unlike cartotanks, however, no poly-foam material can be found in them.
Rebuildable dripping atomizers (RDAs) on the other hand lack the container section and hold very little liquid compared to RTAs, but are usually a lot smaller.
Since mechanical PVs are unregulated and unprotected, they require special attention on the user's part that other regulated and protected PVs do not need.

Embodiment Construction

[0035]The present invention utilizes the above-identified conventional components in a different configuration to obtain a safer, more sanitary electronic cigarette product.

Casing Structures

[0036]The current embodiment of an electronic cigarette 10 has an exterior casing (identified as 12a, 12b, 12c, 12d, 12e respectively in FIGS. 1a-e). The casing 12a-e is preferably made of metal, preferably brass, and manufactured by Zippo Manufacturing Company. In particular, the casing 12a is similar to the famous Zippo Manufacturing Company's BLU brand pyrophoric lighter design except for a few modifications. As with Zippo Manufacturing Company's classic, original pyrophoric lighter design, the casing 12a-e is designed to receive a removable insert 30—which will be discussed in greater detail below.

[0037]Common features of each casing 12a-e include a top section 14a-e connected to a bottom section 15a-e by a hinge 16—a two, three, four, five, six part or more part hinged system. Top section 14...

Abstract

An electronic cigarette having a shell, an insert, and a mouthpiece component. The shell has a lid with a bracket on the lid's interior surface and a base connected by a hinge that allows the shell to be in an open position or a closed position. The insert has a power on / off switch, a tang, a more power switch and a less power switch, an atomizer connection, electronic circuitry, and a mouthpiece sanitary, storage cavity. At least one aperture in the shell exposes the power on / off switch, the more power switch, the less power switch, and the atomizer connection. The mouthpiece component is capable of being properly positioned (a) into the mouthpiece sanitary, storage cavity for safer and more sanitary environment when the electronic cigarette is not being used for smoking purposes and (b) in the atomizer connection when the electronic cigarette is being used for smoking purposes.

Description

CLAIM OF PRIORITY[0001]This application claims priority to U.S. provisional patent application Ser. No. 61 / 896,774, filed on Oct. 29, 2013.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0002]As expressed in Wikipedia, “An electronic cigarette (e-cig or e-cigarette), personal vaporizer (PV) or electronic nicotine delivery system (ENDS) is a battery-powered vaporizer which simulates tobacco smoking by producing an aerosol that resembles smoke. It generally uses a heating element known as an atomizer, that vaporizes a liquid solution known as e-liquid. E-liquids usually contain a mixture of propylene glycol, vegetable glycerin, nicotine, and flavorings, while others release a flavored vapor without nicotine . . . .[0003]Most electronic cigarettes take an overall cylindrical shape although a wide array of shapes can be found: box, pipe styles etc. First generation electronic cigarettes were usually designed to simulate smoking implements, such as cigarettes or cigars, in their use and appearance. New gene...
