Vaporizing consumables heated with convection and conduction in a portable device
Disclosed herein are inventions for heating without combustion plant material or volatile compounds or oils in a disposable consumable such as a cartridge. The consumable upon insertion into a heating chamber or receivor is held in place and is restricted from rotation about its axis. The insertion may form indents or shaped portions of the consumable. It may have a case with a cartridge interface to receive the consumable into the heating system, a key guide, at least one heater element, an on/off switch, a battery, a temperature sensor; a controller in signal communication with the at least one heater element, battery, temperature sensor and the on/off switch.
1. A system of heating without combusting material within a disposable consumable, comprising:
a disposable consumable having an inhalation end and containing a material to be heated in a containment end;
a receivor with a key guide configured to retain and deform frangible sections of the inserted consumable;
at least one beating clement and at least one temperature sensor in thermal communication with the receivor;
a power supply;
a controller in signal communication with the power supply, the at least one heating element and the at least one temperature sensor configured to stop heating if said consumable is removed from the receivor; and,
wherein the containment end is formed of at least paper and metal.
2. The system of heating without combusting material within a disposable consumable of claim 1 wherein the material contains at least tobacco.
3. The system of heating without combusting material within a disposable consumable of claim 1 wherein the controller is configured to communicate states of heating or not heating to the user.
4. The system of heating without combusting material within a disposable consumable of claim 3 wherein the communication to the user is by way of illumination.
5. The system of heating without combusting material within a disposable consumable of claim 3 wherein the communication to the user is by way of a vibration.
6. The system of heating without combusting material within a disposable consumable of claim 1 wherein key guide at least one of deforms at least a portion of the consumable.
7. A system of heating without combusting material within a disposable consumable comprising:
a disposable consumable having an inhalation end and containing a material to be heated in a containment end;
a receivor with a key guide configured to retain and deform frangible sections of the inserted consumable;
at least one beating element and at least one temperature sensor in thermal communication with the receivor;
a power supply;
a controller in signal communication with the power supply, the at least one heating element and the at least one temperature sensor configured to stop heating if said consumable is removed from the receivor:
wherein key guide at least one of deforms at least a portion of the consumable; and,
wherein a volume of air is heated in the receivor between the consumable and interior wall of the receivor.
8. The system of heating without combusting material within a disposable consumable of claim 7 wherein at least a portion of the volume of heated air is passes through the consumable when a user inbales on the inhalation end of said consumable.
