Hand-held vaporizer with rapid heating and efficient vapor delivery
A recently granted patent (Publication Number: US11857718B2) discloses a vaporizer designed with an outer housing and a structural housing containing a heater and an oven chamber for vaporizing materials. The vaporizer includes a mouthpiece and a cooling pathway between the outer and structural housing to deliver the heated air and vaporized material to the user. The design aims to provide a smooth and efficient vaping experience by cooling the vaporized material before reaching the mouthpiece.
The patent claims detail various features of the vaporizer, including a convection heater capable of heating air to vaporization temperature within three seconds, an inlet air opening for air intake, and an elongate tube heater with a notched region for enhanced heating. Additionally, the design incorporates an air gap around the oven chamber walls, insulating materials, and a screen with perforations for airflow. The vaporizer also utilizes a turbulent air path to cool the vaporized material efficiently. Overall, the patented vaporizer offers a combination of heating elements, airflow design, and cooling mechanisms to enhance the vaping experience for users, with a focus on rapid heating and efficient vapor delivery.
