Cartridge and e-vaping device
A cartridge of an e-vaping device includes a housing extending in a longitudinal direction, a reservoir in the housing, a heater in the housing, and an absorbent material at least partially surrounding the sinusoidal shaped member. The reservoir is configured to store a pre-vapor formulation. The heater has a sinusoidal shaped member translating about an elliptical shape to define a channel there through. The absorbent material is in fluid communication with the reservoir.
1. A vaporizing device comprising:
a housing extending in a longitudinal direction, the housing defining a groove therein;
a reservoir in the housing;
a vaporizer in the housing;
a connector piece including,
a base,
an extension extending from the base,
a gasket portion defining a notch therein, and the base, the extension, and the gasket portion being a single piece, and
a slide on an outer surface of the connector piece, the slide configured to engage the groove of the housing so as to secure the connector piece to the housing;
an absorbent material in contact with a portion of the vaporizer;
a sheath at least partially surrounding the absorbent material; and
a power supply configured to supply power to the vaporizer.
2. The vaporizing device of claim 1 , wherein the sheath is formed of an electrically conductive material.
3. The vaporizing device of claim 1 , wherein the gasket portion is friction fitted within a lateral wall of the sheath.
4. The vaporizing device of claim 1 , wherein the absorbent material comprises a hollow, cylinder of absorbent material.
5. The vaporizing device of claim 1 , wherein the vaporizer includes a heater and a wick.
6. The vaporizing device of claim 5 , wherein the wick is in contact with the absorbent material.
7. The vaporizing device of claim 5 , wherein an end of the wick extends through the notch of the gasket portion.
8. The vaporizing device of claim 1 , wherein the absorbent material comprises glass fiber.
9. The vaporizing device of claim 1 , wherein the absorbent material is in fluid communication with the reservoir.
10. The vaporizing device of claim 1 , wherein
the gasket portion further defines channels configured to receive electrical leads,
the vaporizer includes a heater coil, and
the electrical leads connect to ends of the heater coil.
11. The vaporizing device of claim 1 , further comprising:
a mouthpiece configured to fit over a first end of the housing, the mouthpiece including at least one outlet.
12. The vaporizing device of claim 1 , wherein the gasket portion, the extension, and the base define at least one flow passage therethrough.
