A vaporizer cartridge, as a component of an inhaler, has a hollow body with a continuous flow channel and a storage tank for storing liquid. The storage tank has at least one access opening to the flow channel and a vaporizer unit arranged in the region of the access opening and extending over the entire access opening. The vaporizer unit has a wick member and a heating member. The vaporizer unit is formed to be liquid-permeable such that liquid can be conveyed at least initially in a capillary manner out of the storage tank through the vaporizer unit in the direction of the flow channel. The wick member is formed from a plurality of granular grains which form microchannels as a result of their fill and/or formation. An inhaler is also provided.

Vaporizer cartridge and inhaler comprising such a vaporizer cartridge

An inhaler vaporizer cartridge includes a housing body with a flow channel, a liquid storage tank, and a vaporizer unit. The vaporizer unit has a wick member and heating member and is liquid-permeable such that liquid is conveyed from the tank through the vaporizer unit to the flow channel. The housing body has a cavity forming the tank and a wick member receiving chamber, and housing is divided by an intermediate wall and a flow channel section. An access opening from the receiving chamber to the flow channel is formed in the intermediate wall and covered by the heating member. Granular grains in the receiving chamber form the wick member and bear against the heating member. The grains form microchannels and are retained by a cover element. An access opening, covered with a liquid-permeable grid structure, establishes a liquid connection from the tank to receiving chamber in the intermediate wall.

A vaporizer cartridge for an inhaler has a hollow body with a continuous flow channel and liquid storage tank. The tank has an access opening to the channel and a vaporizer unit extending over the entire access opening. The vaporizer unit has a wick member and a heating member. The vaporizer unit is liquid-permeable such that liquid is conveyed at least initially in a capillary manner from the storage tank through the vaporizer unit in the direction of the flow channel. The wick member is formed from a plurality of granular grains which, as a result of their fill and/or formation, form microchannels which establish a fluid connection between the storage tank and the flow channel, continuously from an entry side to an exit side of the wick member. An additional securing means is provided which is holds the granular wick member in position. A corresponding inhaler is also provided.

A vaporizer device for an inhaler comprises at least one electric vaporizer for vaporizing liquid fed to the vaporizer, wherein the liquid is transported by capillary forces from an inlet side through at least one liquid channel to an outlet side, where vaporized liquid can be added to an air stream, a carrier retaining the vaporizer, and at least one electrical line electrically contacting the vaporizer. The electrical line comprises a planar contact area, and the vaporizer and the planar contact area of the electrical line are materially and electrically conductively bonded to each other.

Evaporator device for an inhaler, consumption unit, inhaler, and production method

A method for manufacturing a vaporizer assembly for an inhaler comprises the steps of providing a plurality of connection stations and performing at least one assembly step at each connection station to produce a vaporizer assembly at each connection station.

Method and mounting frame for manufacturing a vaporizer unit for an inhaler

A method for producing vaporizer units as a component of inhalers includes the steps: a) providing a flexible circuit board material with sites for individual vaporizer units, the material optionally prestructured with conductor paths and/or pre-punched areas predetermined in terms of position/course for each site; b) providing and placing a heating element which may be electrically connected to the conductor paths; and c) at least partial covering each site with a sealing material for the formation of a partial sheathing for each vaporizer unit. The sealing material is applied such that the sheathing covers an edge region of the heating element while keeping open a heating surface on an upper side of the circuit board material. At least the outer surfaces of the sheathing pointing away from the circuit board material form sealing surfaces. Vaporizer units, vaporizer assemblies, vaporizer cartridges and inhalers with such vaporizer units are also provided.

Vaporizer unit for inhaler and method for producing vaporizer units

A vaporiser insert for an electronic cigarette product comprises at least one electrical vaporiser for vaporising fluid supplied to the vaporiser and for supplying the vaporised fluid to an airflow, a main part having a lateral face which surrounds an airflow duct through which the airflow can flow, at least one fluid opening for supplying vaporisable fluid from the outside into the vaporiser insert and to the vaporiser being arranged on the lateral face of the main part. The vaporiser insert comprises a support for retaining the vaporiser, and the support comprises a passage opening that corresponds to the fluid opening in order to supply fluid to the vaporiser.
