Abstract

An electronic cigarette comprises nicotine without harmful tar. The cigarette includes a shell, a cell, nicotine solution, control circuit, and an electro-thermal vaporization nozzle installed in the air suction end of the shell. The advantages of the present invention are smoking without tar, reducing the risk of cancer, the user still gets a smoking experience, the cigarette is not lit, and there is no fire danger.

Claims (46)

1. A vaporizing device, comprising:

a first housing removably attached to a second housing;

a battery in the first housing electrically connected to a control circuit;

at least one air inlet for allowing air into the second housing;

an atomizer inside of the second housing, the atomizer including a wire coil heating element and a cylindrical ceramic component, the cylindrical ceramic component having a central channel;

the cylindrical ceramic component supported on a threaded base;

the wire coil heating element in physical contact with the cylindrical ceramic component;

the wire coil heating element electrically connectable to the battery;

the second housing providing a re-fillable liquid storage container containing a liquid, the liquid moving from the liquid storage container into the cylindrical ceramic component; and

the wire coil heating element co-axial with the cylindrical ceramic component and the wire coil heating element providing heat for vaporizing the liquid.

2. The device of claim 1 further comprising an airflow sensor electrically connected to the control circuit.

3. The device of claim 1 wherein the first and second housings have the same cross sectional size and shape, and the first and second housings having a common longitudinal axis.

4. The device of claim 1 further comprising a switch electrically connected to the control circuit.

5. The device of claim 1 wherein the threaded base has a diameter greater than the diameter of the cylindrical ceramic component.

6. A vaporizing device, comprising:

a first housing attachable to and detachable from a second housing;

a battery in the first housing electrically connected to a control circuit;

a charging connector in the first housing for charging the battery;

at least one air inlet for allowing air to flow into the second housing;

a wire heating element and a ceramic component in the second housing, the wire heating element electrically connected to the control circuit, and the wire heating element having a plurality of windings in physical contact with the ceramic component;

the second housing having a refillable liquid storage container containing a liquid;

the ceramic component supported on a threaded base having an opening to allow the liquid to move from the liquid storage container into the ceramic component;

the wire heating element vaporizing liquid in the ceramic material component.

7. The device of claim 6 wherein the ceramic component is cylindrical and the threaded base has a diameter greater than the diameter of the cylindrical ceramic component.

8. The device of claim 6 further comprising a passage tube in the second housing on one side of the liquid storage container.

9. The device of claim 6 having a single wire heating element, and with the liquid vaporized only via heating by the single wire heating element.

10. The device of claim 6 further comprising a sensor electrically connected to the control circuit.

11. The device of claim 6 further comprising a switch electrically connected to the control circuit.

12. The device of claim 6 with liquid from the liquid storage container flowing onto the wire heating element.

13. The device of claim 7 further including a passageway in the second housing, with liquid moving from the liquid storage container through the passageway for vaporization by the wire heating element.

14. A vaporizing device, comprising:

a first housing attachable to and detachable from a second housing;

a battery in the first housing electrically connected to a control circuit;

a charging connector in the first housing for charging the battery;

an LED in the first housing electrically connected to the control circuit;

at least one air inlet for allowing air to flow into the second housing;

a wire heating element and a cylindrical ceramic material component inside of the second housing, the wire heating element electrically connected to the control circuit, the wire heating element including coils having first surfaces in contact with the cylindrical ceramic material component and having second surfaces not in contact with the cylindrical ceramic material component;

the second housing providing a refillable liquid storage container for containing a liquid;

a passageway in the second housing for moving liquid from the liquid storage container to the cylindrical ceramic material component, the liquid vaporized by heating the wire heating element;

wherein the first and second housings together form the vaporizing device.

15. The device of claim 14 further comprising a sensor electrically connected to the control circuit.

16. The device of claim 14 further comprising a switch electrically connected to the control circuit.

17. The device of claim 14 wherein the cylindrical ceramic material component is supported on a threaded base having an opening to allow the liquid to move from the liquid storage container into the cylindrical ceramic material component.

18. The device of claim 17 with the first and second housings together forming the vaporizing device with the first housing having the same cross sectional size and shape as the second housing, and the first and second housings having a common longitudinal axis.

19. The device of claim 6 further including an LED in the first housing electrically connected to the control circuit.

20. The device of claim 13 with the first and second housings together forming the vaporizing device with the first housing having the same cross sectional size and shape as the second housing, and the first and second housings having a common longitudinal axis.
