Embodiment Construction

[0079]Referring to FIG. 1 and FIG. 2, the exterior of the device 10 comprises a mouthpiece 11, a tubular case 12, and the base 14 of a butane tank 21. The mouthpiece is removable and creates an airtight seal with the interior of the case. With the mouthpiece removed, a tobacco cartridge (FIG. 5) is introduced to vaporization chamber 15 of a heater 16. The mouthpiece is then reinserted to close the device. Thus, as shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, removal of the mouthpiece exposes the vaporization chamber and replacement of the mouthpiece closes the vaporization chamber.

[0080]The mouthpiece is made of a high-temperature and food-safe material such as ceramic, glass, or various high-temperature plastics such as PEI resin (brand name Ultem). Design is simplified by use of high temperature materials, but standard plastics or wood, etc., could also be used with the addition of an insulating component that prevents any excessive heat from reaching the user's lips.

[0081]To activate the device, the ...
