Device for refilling electronic cigarette cartridge
A refill bottle and system for an electronic cigarette. The refill bottle and system can comprise a refill bottle. The refill bottle can comprise a bottle housing, a bottle cavity defined by the bottle housing, and a refill assembly coupled to the bottle housing. The refill assembly can comprise a bottle stopper, a movable assembly, a spring, a filling projection, and a projection opening. The refill assembly can be configured to cover the filling projection and the projection opening when no force is acting upon the refill assembly. The refill system can further comprise an eCig tank comprising a tank side wall, a tank reservoir defined by the tank side wall, and a self-sealing port coupled to the tank side wall.
1. A refill system for an electronic cigarette, comprising:
a refill bottle comprising a bottle housing, a bottle cavity defined by the bottle housing, and a refill assembly coupled to the bottle housing, the refill assembly comprising a refill check valve, a filling projection, and at least one flange; and
an eCig tank comprising a tank side wall, a tank reservoir defined by the tank side wall, and a self-sealing port coupled to the tank side wall,
wherein the self-sealing port comprises a locking interface, a fill port, and a tank check valve, and wherein the self-sealing port comprises a material that forms the fill port, opens when penetrated by the filling projection, and automatically seals after penetration.
2. The refill system for an electronic cigarette according to claim 1 , wherein the material comprises an elastomeric material.
3. The refill system for an electronic cigarette according to claim 2 , wherein the elastomeric material comprises a silicone material.
4. The refill system for an electronic cigarette according to claim 1 , further comprising a liquid stored within the bottle cavity and wherein the bottle housing is configured to transmit pressure to the bottle cavity such that the applied pressure causes the liquid to move from the bottle cavity, through the refill check valve, and exit the refill bottle.
5. The refill system for an electronic cigarette according to claim 4 , wherein the refill check valve is configured to interact with the tank check valve to allow the liquid stored within the bottle cavity to move through the refill check valve, through the tank check valve, and into the tank reservoir.
6. The refill system for an electronic cigarette according to claim 1 , wherein the at least one flange is configured to removably couple with the locking interface.
7. A refilling system for an electronic cigarette, comprising:
an electronic cigarette comprising a side wall defining an tank reservoir, and a self-sealing port, wherein the self-sealing port is located on the side wall and comprises a locking interface, a self-sealing port, and a tank check valve, wherein the self-sealing port comprises a material that forms the fill port, opens when penetrated by the filling projection, and automatically seals after penetration; and
a refill bottle, comprising:
a bottle housing;
a bottle cavity defined by the bottle housing; and
a refill assembly comprising a plurality of flanges, the filling projection, and a refill check valve, wherein the plurality of flanges are configured to removably couple with the locking interface of the self-sealing port, and wherein the refill check valve is configured to interact with the tank check valve to allow a liquid stored within the bottle cavity to move through the refill check valve, through the tank check valve, and into the tank reservoir.
8. The refill system for an electronic cigarette according to claim 7 , wherein the material comprises an elastomeric material.
9. The refill system for an electronic cigarette according to claim 8 , wherein the-elastomeric material comprises a silicone material.
