    摘要: An inhalation device for inhaling a vaporized substance that includes metering capabilities to inform a user when a particular amount of substance has been consumed. The device includes an inlet having an opening, an outlet, a processor, an atomizer configured to vaporize an unvaporized substance into a vaporized substance. The device further includes a channel positioned between the atomizer and the outlet, wherein the vaporized substance flows downstream from the atomizer to the outlet via the channel, a light signal device, wherein the light signal device emits light, and a light sensor, wherein the light sensor senses the light from the light signal device. In addition, the light signal device and the sensor are positioned in the channel such that the vaporized substance can flow past the sensor and the light signal device, the opening is configured to allow entry of air into the device that flows to the atomizer, the inlet is configured such that the air flows at a substantially constant rate, and the processor, using the substantially constant rate and the data from the light sensor, is configured to meter an amount of vapor consumed by a user.

    摘要: An inhalation device for inhaling a vaporized substance that includes metering capabilities to inform a user when a particular amount of substance has been consumed. The inhalation device can include a sensor that senses the vaporized substance and a processor that utilizes data from the sensor to meter the amount consumed. The inhalation device can also define a session, which is a time in which a user can consume a particular amount. During the session, a user can start and stop inhaling and resume inhaling. When the user stops inhaling the inhalation device will halt vapor production and will resume production when the user resumes inhaling.

    摘要: An inhalation device includes a light source that emits light, a light sensor that senses an intensity of the light emitted from the light source and a processor or circuit configured to perform a metering process. The metering process may include when a signal indicating that a puff has been detected by the puff detecting element: extracting a predetermined known flow rate that is stored in the memory in advance, determining an amount of vaporized substance that have been produced, and accumulating the determined amount of vaporized substance that has been produced in the memory as a total amount produced. The metering method may also include when the accumulated total amount produced reaches a predetermined threshold: (i) shut off the heating element or (ii) send a signal to an indicator that the predetermined threshold amount of the vaporized substance has been consumed.

    摘要: An inhalation device for inhaling a vaporized substance that includes metering capabilities to inform a user when a particular amount of substance has been consumed. The inhalation device can include an inlet, an outlet, a channel positioned between the inlet and outlet. The device can further include an atomizer positioned between the inlet and the outlet and configured to vaporize an unvaporized substance into a vaporized substance, where the vaporized substance flows downstream from the atomizer to the outlet via the channel. The inhalation device can further include an airflow sensor positioned upstream of the flow of the vaporized substance, where the airflow sensor is configured to acquire information on the flow of air from the inlet.
