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.

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.

A discharge hopper for a tray discharge station for serially discharging shaft trays filled with rod-shaped products includes a conveying element for carrying away the products flowing from the shaft trays and a connecting device for coupling the shaft trays to be emptied to the conveying element. The connecting device is arranged substantially parallel to and spaced apart from the conveying element to form a channel for the product flow and includes an opening for passage of the products from the shaft tray into the channel. In the region of the connecting device there is provided a closure unit to open and close the opening. The closure device is coupled to a movable actuating element so that the closure device can be opened and closed shaft by shaft in relation to the shaft tray to be emptied.

Storage device with variable storage capacity. The storage device includes an input area, an output area, a continuous conveying element connecting the input area to the output area. The continuous conveying element is guided by guide elements in a looping manner from the input area to the output area, whereby the continuous conveying element defines a multi-layered storage area adapted to store products and a multi-layered return area adapted to be free of products. The multi-layered storage and return areas are arranged side by side and change in length depending on a state of fullness of the storage device while an overall length of the continuous conveying element remains generally constant. At least one storage layer of the multi-layered storage area and at least one storage layer of the multi-layered return area is arranged on a common horizontal plane. This Abstract is not intended to define the invention disclosed in the specification, nor intended to limit the scope of the invention in any way.
