Abstract
The present disclosure relates to an aerosol delivery device filling system. The system includes multiple source containers each respectively including a differing aerosol precursor composition. The system further includes a mixing container configured to engage the source containers to receive and mix the aerosol precursor compositions to form a mixed aerosol precursor composition. An aerosol delivery device may engage the mixing container to receive at least a portion of the mixed aerosol precursor composition. A related method for customizing an aerosol precursor composition is also provided.
Claims5
An aerosol precursor composition mixing system, comprising:
- a source container configured to contain an aerosol precursor composition and defining a source container outlet, a source container outlet valve being coupled to the source container outlet and including an extension at least partially extending out of the source container;
- and
- a mixing container defining a mixing container inlet and a mixing container outlet, a mixing container inlet valve being coupled to the mixing container inlet and a mixing container outlet valve being coupled to the mixing container outlet, the mixing container inlet valve defining a receptacle at least partially recessed within the mixing container, the receptacle containing a spring configured to bias the mixing container inlet valve to a closed configuration,
- the source container outlet valve and the mixing container inlet valve being configured to engage one another and open during engagement, the extension of the source container being configured to extend into the receptacle to compress the spring to an open configuration during engagement of the source container outlet valve and the mixing container inlet valve to allow transfer of at least a portion of the aerosol precursor composition from the source container to the mixing container,
- the mixing container outlet valve being configured to open during engagement with an aerosol delivery device.
