Apparatus and method for diffusing a liquid composition
View Patent ↗Described is an apparatus, system, and methods, for the diffusing of a liquid composition that has an embedded receptacle. The supporting element for the embedded receptacle serves as the base for the apparatus may contain a light emitting diode that illuminates the components of the apparatus. The apparatus can handle various types of liquid compositions and could also be utilized to diffuse compositions containing oil, fragrances and/or cannabinoids such as cannabidiol or tetrahydrocannabinol.
1. An apparatus for diffusing a liquid composition comprising:
a supporting base having a receptacle embedded within, said receptacle having a conductive element connected to a power source;
an insert comprising a floor element, an outer wall that extend up from said floor element and fits with said receptacle, a center receiving wall extending up from said floor element and having at least one ventilation hole, and a diffusing channel between said outer wall and said center receiving wall that utilizes said floor element;
a vapor absorber that fits within said diffusing channel;
a liquid absorber configured to fit within said center receiving wall;
a heating coil configured to heat said liquid absorber and vaporize said liquid composition; and
a reservoir for holding a liquid composition, wherein said reservoir is configured to convey said liquid composition to said liquid absorber when coupled with said center wall and said ventilation holes dispense vapor when said liquid absorber is heated by said heating coil.
2. The apparatus of claim 1 wherein said conductive element is within said receptacle.
3. The apparatus of claim 1 wherein said conductive element is a copper element configured to transfer current to said power source.
4. The apparatus of claim 3 wherein said copper element is arranged in a ring pattern within said receptacle.
5. The apparatus of claim 1 wherein said conductive element is a sending contact element configured to transfer current to a receiving contact element on said insert.
6. The apparatus of claim 1 wherein said insert contains a first magnet and said receptacle contains a second magnet that attracts said first magnet when said insert is placed within said receptacle.
7. The apparatus of claim 1 wherein threading protrusions are on said center wall of said insert and on a neck of said reservoir such that a user may couple said insert and said reservoir by screwing said insert onto said reservoir.
8. The apparatus of claim 1 wherein said insert serves as a bottle cap for said reservoir.
9. The apparatus of claim 1 wherein said liquid composition comprises an oil component.
10. The apparatus of claim 1 wherein said liquid composition has a fragrance.
11. The apparatus of claim 1 wherein said liquid composition comprises cannabinoids.
12. The apparatus of claim 1 wherein said supporting element contains a light emitting diode configured to illuminate said supporting element.
13. The apparatus of claim 1 further comprising:
an identification chip comprising information about said liquid composition, wherein said information determines heat settings of said heating coil.
14. The apparatus of claim 13 , wherein said information about said liquid composition comprises a composition type, batch information, and date of manufacture.
15. The apparatus of claim 14 wherein said heat settings are obtained from a network-based data source.
16. The apparatus of claim 13 further comprising:
a strain gauge for monitoring an amount dispensed of said liquid composition.
17. The apparatus of claim 16 wherein said identification chip controls said amount dispensed of said liquid composition.
18. An apparatus for diffusing a liquid composition comprising:
a supporting base having a receptacle embedded within, said receptacle having a conductive element therein which is connected to a power source;
an insert comprising a floor element, an outer wall that extend up from said floor element and fits with said receptacle, a center receiving wall extending up from said floor element and having at least one ventilation hole, and a diffusing channel between said outer wall and said center receiving wall that utilizes said floor element;
a vapor absorber that fits within said diffusing channel;
a liquid absorber configured to fit within said center receiving wall;
a heating coil configured to heat said liquid absorber and vaporize said liquid composition;
a reservoir for holding a liquid composition, wherein said reservoir is configured to convey said liquid composition to said liquid absorber when coupled with said center wall and said ventilation holes dispense vapor when said liquid absorber is heated by said heating coil; and
an identification chip comprising information about said liquid composition, wherein said information determines heat settings of said heating coil.
19. An apparatus for diffusing a liquid composition comprising:
a supporting base having a receptacle embedded within, said receptacle having a conductive element connected to a power source;
an insert comprising a floor element, an outer wall that extend up from said floor element and fits with said receptacle, a center receiving wall extending up from said floor element and having at least one ventilation hole, and a diffusing channel between said outer wall and said center receiving wall that utilizes said floor element;
said insert having a first magnet and said receptacle having a second magnet that attracts said first magnet when said insert is placed within said receptacle;
a vapor absorber that fits within said diffusing channel;
a liquid absorber configured to fit within said center receiving wall;
a heating coil configured to heat said liquid absorber and vaporize said liquid composition;
a reservoir for holding a liquid composition, wherein said reservoir is configured to convey said liquid composition to said liquid absorber when coupled with said center wall and said ventilation holes dispense vapor when said liquid absorber is heated by said heating coil; and
an identification chip comprising information about said liquid composition, wherein said information comprises a composition type and said information determines heat settings of said heating coil.
20. The apparatus of claim 19 wherein said heat settings are obtained from a network-based data source.
