    Abstract: A cartridge of an electronic vaping device includes a housing extending in a longitudinal direction. The housing includes a sidewall, a transverse wall at the first end of the sidewall, and an inner tube integrally formed with the housing. The sidewall is generally cylindrical and a first end and a second end. The transverse wall includes at least one outlet therein. The inner tube extends in the longitudinal direction. The inner tube is concentrically positioned with respect to the sidewall. The inner tube communicates with the at least one outlet. The cartridge also includes a reservoir between the sidewall and the inner tube. The reservoir is configured to contain a pre-vapor formulation.

    Abstract: A doser apparatus includes a throttle device on a doser mechanism. The throttle device includes a vibratory hopper and a vibration device. The vibratory hopper is configured to hold a granular material within a vibratory hopper conduit that tapers towards a bottom opening and is configured to induce bridging of the granular material at the bottom opening. The vibration device is configured to break the bridging of the granular material at the bottom opening to induce flow of the granular material through the bottom opening to a doser reservoir of the doser mechanism, based on inducing vibration of the vibratory hopper. The throttle device is configured to control a head pressure of the granular material at a portion of a conveyor device of the doser mechanism extending into the doser reservoir based on operating the vibration device to adjustably control the flow of granular material through the bottom opening.

    Abstract: A container includes a base and a lid movable between a closed and locked configuration and an open configuration The base includes a peripheral wall movable from a relaxed position to a flexed position by applying a first force to a first portion in a first direction and a second force to a second portion in a second direction. The lid defines a plurality of receptacles. In the closed and locked configuration, the protrusions are at least partially in the receptacles, the peripheral wall is in the relaxed position, and the protrusions are configured to engage the lid to retain the lid in the closed and locked configuration. The container is configured to be moved from the closed and locked configuration to the open configuration by moving the lid in a third direction different from the first and second directions while the peripheral wall is in the flexed position.

    Abstract: An apparatus for the automated filling of cartridges of e-vapor devices may include a filling drum configured to receive at least one cartridge of an e-vapor device. The apparatus may additionally include a needle assembly including at least one hypodermic needle. The needle assembly is configured to transition between a lowered state and a raised state. The lowered state is where the hypodermic needle is moved down into the cartridge, while the raised state is where the hypodermic needle is lifted up and away from the cartridge. The apparatus may further include a pump assembly configured to pump a pre-vapor formulation into the cartridge when the needle assembly is in the lowered state. The pump assembly may include a variable amplitude cam system configured to adjust an amount of the pre-vapor formulation for pumping to the cartridge without changing start and stop times for the pumping.

    Abstract: The package includes a base, a primary lid connected to the base via a first hinge, the primary lid and the base defining a primary storage area when the primary lid is in a closed position, a first locking mechanism and a second locking mechanism. The first and second locking mechanisms each including an arm with a first engaging structure, the arm being connected to the primary lid, and a flexible structure including a contact structure and at least one attachment member, the at least one attachment member attaching the contact structure to the base, the contact structure including a second engaging structure on a surface of the contact structure, the flexible structure being in a relaxed position when the primary lid is in the closed position, the first engaging structure being retained by the second engaging structure to lock the primary lid onto the base in the closed position.
