Vaporizer
It is the object of the present invention to eliminate the disadvantages in currently available Vaporizers. The present invention is adapted for use with semi-solid Extracts, which are immune to leakage and do not contain solvents. Furthermore, the present invention is easily operated by users and does not require Dabbing.
1. An Extract vaporizer, comprising:
an adjustable-volume reservoir adapted to contain Extract, wherein said adjustable-volume reservoir comprises:
a cylinder top that is mechanically coupled to a first set of helical threads, and
a cylinder bottom that is mechanically coupled to a second set of helical threads, wherein
said first set of helical threads being coaxial with said cylinder top,
said second set of helical threads being coaxial with said cylinder bottom,
said cylinder top and said cylinder bottom being slidably coupled to substantially enclose a reservoir volume, and
said first and second sets of helical threads being capable of interacting to affect relative displacement of said cylinder top and said cylinder bottom, such that when said cylinder top is rotated with respect to said cylinder bottom, said first and second sets of helical threads interact to adjust said reservoir volume of said adjustable-volume reservoir,
a vaporization chamber, wherein said adjustable-volume reservoir and said vaporization chamber being connected by a port,
a heating element proximal to said vaporization chamber, and
a conduit adapted to ventilate said vaporization chamber.
2. The Extract vaporizer of claim 1 , wherein said adjustable-volume reservoir is generally cylindrical.
3. The Extract vaporizer of claim 1 , further comprising a plurality of visible relative displacement graduations.
4. The Extract vaporizer of claim 1 , wherein said heating element is an ohmic resistance heater.
5. The Extract vaporizer of claim 1 , wherein said vaporization chamber contains a porous solid element.
6. The Extract vaporizer of claim 5 , wherein said porous solid element is fritted glass.
7. An Extract vaporizer, comprising:
a reservoir adapted to contain Extract, wherein said reservoir substantially enclosing a volume,
a means for adjusting said volume of said reservoir,
a vaporization chamber, wherein said reservoir being in fluid communication with said vaporization chamber via a port,
a vaporization chamber heating means,
a conduit adapted to ventilate said vaporization chamber, and
a detent mechanism capable of providing tactile feedback for said reservoir volume adjustment.
8. The Extract vaporizer of claim 7 , further comprising a means for visually indicating said reservoir volume adjustment.

wherein said vaporization chamber contains a fritted glass element.
10. An Extract vaporizer, comprising:
an adjustable-volume reservoir adapted to contain Extract, wherein said adjustable-volume reservoir comprises:
a cylinder top that is mechanically coupled to a first set of helical threads, and
a cylinder bottom that is mechanically coupled to a second set of helical threads, wherein
said first and second sets of helical threads being capable of interacting to affect relative displacement of said cylinder top and said cylinder bottom, such that when said cylinder top is rotated with respect to said cylinder bottom, said first and second sets of helical threads interact to adjust a reservoir volume of said adjustable-volume reservoir,
a vaporization chamber, wherein said adjustable-volume reservoir and said vaporization chamber being connected by a port,
a heating element proximal to said vaporization chamber, and
a conduit adapted to ventilate said vaporization chamber.
11. The Extract vaporizer of claim 10 , wherein said first set of helical threads being coaxial with said cylinder top.
12. The Extract vaporizer of claim 10 , wherein said second set of helical threads being coaxial with said cylinder bottom.
13. The Extract vaporizer of claim 10 , wherein said cylinder top and said cylinder bottom being slidably coupled to substantially enclose said reservoir volume.
