Abstract

A multi-source electronic vapor cigarette which overcomes the shortcomings of current devices. The device allows a user, when using the device for smoking cessation, to select different levels of nicotine at different times of the day to satisfy different levels of craving. The device holds multiple individual containers of a different liquid concentration of nicotine, flavored or not, or flavored medium only, within one device. A user can select a desired refillable container by operation of a switch to create a vapor passage from the desired container to the mouthpiece. For flavored vapor users, operation of the switch will select a container holding the desired flavor. The user can take a puff of one flavor vapor followed by another without mixing flavors within the device. The device allows any desired combination by inserting individual containers the user fills with their choice of liquid.

Description

RELATED APPLICATIONS[0001]The present application claims the filing priority of U.S. Provisional Application No. 61 / 952,287 titled “Vapor Device With Switch Assembly” and filed on Mar. 13, 2014. The '287 disclosure is hereby incorporated by reference.TECHNICAL FIELD OF THE INVENTION[0002]The present disclosure relates to methods for making and using a vapor-type electronic cigarette (a.k.a., e-cigarette) and to vapor-type electronic devices as well. Particularly, the present device relates to an electronic cigarette having a multi-cartridge capacity and a switch for quickly and easily changing between multiple vapor cartridges.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0003]Electronic cigarettes on the market for smoking cessation predominately deliver an amount of nicotine through an atomizer connected to a liquid medium. The amount delivered with each puff is determined by the concentration of the drug in the liquid medium placed into the device. For a user, there are different amounts of nicoti...
