Claims27
A cartridge of an electronic vaping device, the cartridge comprising:
- a housing assembly, the housing assembly being a single piece housing assembly, the housing assembly including,
- a housing extending in a longitudinal direction, the housing being generally cylindrical, the housing including,
- an outer surface, and
- an inner surface;
- a reservoir configured to contain a pre-vapor formulation;
- a transverse end wall at a first end of the housing, the transverse end wall having at least one outlet extending therethrough, the transverse wall integrally formed with the housing;
- an opening in a second end of the housing;
- a secondary transverse wall, the secondary transverse wall between the opening and the transverse end wall, the secondary transverse wall and the inner surface defining the reservoir;
- and
- at least one air passage extending longitudinally through the housing between the outer surface and the inner surface of the housing, the at least one air passage having at least one air passage outlet between the transverse end wall and the secondary transverse wall such that the at least one air passage communicates with the at least one outlet.
