E-liquid vaporizing apparatus

Abstract

An electronic cigarette is provided in which the mouthpiece of the electronic cigarette is in communication with a two-way valve. The valve allows the user to inhale a vapor from an electronic cigarette and then discharge the vapor back into the vapor electronic cigarette as the discharge vapor is introduced into the mouthpiece, the two-way valve shifts to a second position that directs the exhaled vapor into a filtration material that removes the vapors and odors from the exhaled vapor.

That which is claimed: 
     
         1 . An electronic cigarette comprising;
 a battery source;   an atomizer in communication with the battery source;   a reservoir for holding an e-liquid, the e-liquid in communication with the atomizer;   a mouth piece in communication with the atomizer, the mouth piece in further communication with a two-valve wherein when the two-way valve is in first position the mouthpiece allows a vapor product to be removed from the e-cigarette and when the two-way valve is in a second position, the valve allows a vapor product to be delivered from a users mouth and through the valve;   a filtration device in fluid communication with the two-way valve when the two-way valve is in a second position, the filtration device removing odors and visible vapor from the vapor product supplied by the user.   
     
     
         2 . A cartridge for an electronic cigarette comprising in an atomizer, a wick, an e-liquid reservoir, and a mouth piece, the improvement comprising;
 a two-way valve in communication with the mouth piece, the two-way valve having a first position for delivering a vapor from an e-cigarette to the user;   a second position for receiving a vapor containing exhale product from the user; and,   a filter in communication with the two-way valve when in a second position, the filter adapted for receiving the vapor from the user and removing the vapor from the exhaled product.   
     
     
         3 . An electronic cigarette comprising:
 a housing;   a vaporizing element carried within the housing;   a tip portion in fluid communication with a vapor generated by the vaporizing element, the tip portion in further communication with a two-way valve that can direct airflow from an inhaled position to an exhale position; and,   a filtering unit in communication with the tip when the valve is in an exhale position.   
     
     
         4 . The apparatus according to  claim 1  wherein the electronic cigarette is in the shape of a beverage container. 
     
     
         5 . The apparatus according to  claim 1  wherein the cartridge is adapted for being housed within a container resembling a beverage container. 
     
     
         6 . The electronic cigarette according to  claim 3  wherein the housing is in the shape of a beverage container. 
     
     
         7 . The electronic cigarette according to  claim 6  wherein the tip portion of the electronic cigarette is configured to resemble an opening of the beverage container. 
     
     
         8 . The electronic cigarette according to  claim 7  wherein the tip of the beverage shaped container is selected from the group consisting of a straw, a spout, a bottle opening, and a dispenser.
