Electronic cigarette usage tracking system
Abstract
An electronic cigarette usage tracking system includes an electronic cigarette including a housing with an atomizer mounted therein to convert a liquid within the housing into a vapor when air is drawn through the housing. A power supply is electrically coupled to the atomizer is mounted within the housing. A processor is mounted within the housing and is electrically coupled to the power supply. The processor is in communication with the atomizer and tracks an amount of time the atomizer is activated. The amount of time is defined as a percentage of a cigarette smoked wherein a cigarette equivalent is defined when the percentage equals 100%. The processor resets the percentage to 0% each time the percentage attains 100% and the processor counts each cigarette equivalent to define a tracking number.
Claims
exact text as granted — not AI-modifiedI claim:
1 . An electronic atomization cigarette usage tracking system comprising:
an electronic cigarette including;
a housing having a first end, a second end and a perimeter wall extending between said first and second ends;
an atomizer being mounted within said housing and being configured to convert a liquid within said housing into a vapor when air is drawn through said housing;
a power supply being electrically coupled to said atomizer being mounted within said housing; and
a processor being mounted within said housing and being electrically coupled to said power supply, said processor being in communication with said atomizer and tracking an amount of time said atomizer is activated, said amount of time being defined as a percentage of a cigarette smoked wherein a cigarette equivalent is defined when said percentage equals 100%, said processor resetting said percentage to 0% each time said percentage attains 100%, said processor counting each cigarette equivalent to define a tracking number.
2 . The electronic atomization cigarette usage tracking system according to claim 1 , further including a display being mounted on said housing, said display being electrically coupled to said processor and displaying said tracking number.
3 . The electronic atomization cigarette usage tracking system according to claim 2 , further including a reset switch being mounted on said housing and being electrically coupled to said processor, said reset switch setting said tracking number to zero when actuated.
4 . The electronic atomization cigarette usage tracking system according to claim 1 , further including a reset switch being mounted on said housing and being electrically coupled to said processor, said reset switch setting said tracking number to zero when actuated.
5 . The electronic atomization cigarette usage tracking system according to claim 1 , further including a plurality of light emitters being mounted on said perimeter wall, said light emitters being equally spaced from each other, said light emitters each being electrically coupled to said processor, said light emitters being sequentially illuminated from said first end to said second as said percentage increases from 0% to 100%, said light emitters being turned off when a next one of said light emitters is turned on.
6 . The electronic atomization cigarette usage tracking system according to claim 2 , further including a plurality of light emitters being mounted on said perimeter wall, said light emitters being equally spaced from each other, said light emitters each being electrically coupled to said processor, said light emitters being sequentially illuminated from said first end to said second as said percentage increases from 0% to 100%, said light emitters being turned off when a next one of said light emitters is turned on.
7 . An electronic atomization cigarette usage tracking system comprising:
an electronic cigarette including;
a housing having a first end, a second end and a perimeter wall extending between said first and second ends;
an atomizer being mounted within said housing and being configured to convert a liquid within said housing into a vapor when air is drawn through said housing;
a power supply being electrically coupled to said atomizer being mounted within said housing;
a processor being mounted within said housing and being electrically coupled to said power supply, said processor being in communication with said atomizer and tracking an amount of time said atomizer is activated, said amount of time being defined as a percentage of a cigarette smoked wherein a cigarette equivalent is defined when said percentage equals 100%, said processor resetting said percentage to 0% each time said percentage attains 100%, said processor counting each cigarette equivalent to define a tracking number; a display being mounted on said housing, said display being electrically coupled to said processor and displaying said tracking number; a reset switch being mounted on said housing and being electrically coupled to said processor, said reset switch setting said tracking number to zero when actuated; and a plurality of light emitters being mounted on said perimeter wall, said light emitters being equally spaced from each other, said light emitters each being electrically coupled to said processor, said light emitters being sequentially illuminated from said first end to said second as said percentage increases from 0% to 100%, said light emitters being turned off when a next one of said light emitters is turned on.Join the waitlist — get patent alerts
