Elegant Delivery Systems, Devices and Designs

Abstract

Improved inhalable delivery systems feature pens having functional and aesthetic improvements over those available commercially.

1 . In an enhanced modular device for imparting a substance into a breathable fluid stream of an e-cigarette, the improvement which comprises, in combination:
 a fluid-permeable packing material containing a functional substance;   a housing with a transparent window in the shape of an exclamation point (!) configured to contain the packing material, the housing having a proximal end and a distal end in fluid communication with each other, wherein the proximal end is configured to be mated downstream of and in fluid communication with an atomizer, and the distal end is capable of drawing a fluid stream there through;   wherein when a fluid stream is drawn through the distal end of the housing, an atomized fluid from the atomizer passes through the packing material and the functional substance is imparted into the fluid stream; and   wherein the modular unit includes a sealed disposable unit which precludes opening or releasing of any functional substance outside of exclusively with the atomizing apparatus.   
     
     
         2 . The enhanced modular device of  claim 1 , wherein the packing material is situated within a casing that is at least partially fluid permeable at a proximal and distal end. 
     
     
         3 . The enhanced modular device of  claim 1 , wherein the packing material and functional substance have been manufactured together such that no assembly is required from a user. 
     
     
         4 . The enhanced modular device of  claim 1 , wherein the packing material is configured to be switched out by a user. 
     
     
         5 . The enhanced modular device of  claim 1 , wherein the packing material is configured to have a functional substance added to it by a user. 
     
     
         6 . The enhanced modular device of  claim 1 , wherein the housing further comprises one or more o-rings, gaskets or functional equivalents for creating a fluid-tight seal between the housing and an apparatus containing the atomizer. 
     
     
         7 . The enhanced modular device of  claim 1 , wherein the distal end of the housing is connected to a mouthpiece. 
     
     
         8 . The ornamental shape and style of the mouthpiece as shown in the figures. 
     
     
         9 . The enhanced modular device of  claim 1 , wherein the functional substance is at least one of a liquid, a powder, and a flavoring. 
     
     
         10 . The enhanced device of  claim 1 , wherein the functional substance comprises essential oils and/or cannabinoids. 
     
     
         11 . The enhanced device of  claim 1 , wherein the functional substance comprises at least one of propylene glycol, vegetable glycerin, cannabinoids, and flavoring. 
     
     
         12 . The disposable e-liquid tank of  claim 11 , wherein the tank is pre-filled by a manufacturer and is configured to remain sealed throughout its use. 
     
     
         13 . The disposable e-liquid tank of  claim 11 , wherein the tank is configured to release e-liquid in its atomized form but not in its liquid form. 
     
     
         14 . The disposable e-liquid tank of  claim 11 , wherein the base further comprises a fill port configured to accept a needle for filling the tank. 
     
     
         15 . The disposable e-liquid tank of  claim 11 , wherein the base further comprises a plug situated within the fill port to form a seal. 
     
     
         16 . The disposable e-liquid tank of  claim 11 , wherein the disposable tank further comprises at least one of a flavoring, a medicament and propylene glycol, vegetable glycerin and combinations thereof.
