| US12,115,303 - Electronic Vaporizer An electronic vaporizer includes a cartridge with a resistive heating element to vaporize liquid for oral provision. The cartridge features a solution reservoir and airflow passageway, ensuring efficient vapor delivery. The design enhances user experience by integrating mechanical and electrical coupling for seamless operation. | 1. A cartridge configured to mechanically and electrically couple to a power source of an electronic vaporizer, the cartridge comprising: a housing having an interior and a solution holding reservoir configured to hold a liquid solution, the housing having a first end and a second end that is opposite the first end, the housing having a first aperture at the first end and a second aperture at a center of the second end, the housing configured to releasably mechanically couple to the power source, the first end of the housing including two conductive elements to electrically couple to the power source when the housing is mechanically coupled with the power source, at least e portion of each of the two conductive elements residing in interior of the housing, the first aperture and the second aperture in communication with one another to permit an airflow from the first aperture to the second aperture at least partially through an airflow passageway of the housing, the airflow passageway extending through a center of the housing, and the solution holding reservoir surrounding at least a portion of the airflow passageway; a resistive heating element located in the interior of the housing, the resistive heating element extending substantially perpendicular to a central longitudinal axis of the housing, the resistive heated element located in an airflow path between the first aperture and the second aperture to permit the airflow to pass directly over the resistive heating element; and a wicking material configured to draw the liquid solution held by the solution holding reservoir toward the resistive heating element, the resistive heating element coupled with the conductive element and configured to vaporize at least a portion of the liquid solution for oral provision to an individual in the airflow, the resistive heating element responsive to electrical power received from the power source. |
