Abstract
A cartridge for an electronic cigarette includes a liquid store arranged to contain a liquid to be vaporized; a vaporization chamber having at least one opening which connects the vaporization chamber to the liquid store; a fluid transfer element held within the opening and extending between the liquid store and vaporization chamber, the fluid transfer element arranged to transfer liquid between the liquid store and vaporization chamber by capillary action; a heating element positioned within the vaporization chamber and arranged to heat a liquid transferred to the vaporization chamber by the fluid transfer element; wherein the cartridge includes an upper housing portion and a lower housing portion which are configured to connect together around the fluid transfer element to form the liquid store, the vaporization chamber and the at least one opening. This provides an improved seal around the fluid transfer element to minimize leakage into the vaporization chamber.
