Abstract
Aspects of the instant disclosure relate to electronic cigarettes; more particularly, to electronic cigarettes including a clearomizer. Various embodiments of the present disclosure are directed to a clearomizer with a refillable electronic cigarette juice tank with a first fill aperture, and a mouthpiece including a second fill aperture. The mouthpiece and the refillable tank rotate relative to one another along a common longitudinal axis to align the fill apertures, and facilitate filling of the refillable tank.

An eCig clearomizer comprising:
- a refillable tank comprising
- a tank proximal portion and a tank distal portion,
- a first fill aperture, and
- a first annular channel around the proximal portion of the tank;
- and
- a mouthpiece comprising
- a mouthpiece proximal portion and a mouthpiece distal portion,
- a second fill aperture,
- a first annular protuberance around the distal portion of the mouthpiece,
- wherein the first annular protuberance is slidably retained in the first annular channel to facilitate rotation of the mouthpiece relative to the refillable tank;
- wherein the refillable tank and the mouthpiece are thereby configured and arranged to permit relative rotation to selectably align and misalign the first and second fill apertures.
An eCig clearomizer comprising:
- a refillable tank configured and arranged to contain eCig juice;
- a heater coil configured and arranged to atomize eCig juice in response to a current draw across the heater coil;
- a wick configured and arranged to draw the eCig juice from the refillable tank to the heater coil by capillary action;
- and
- a mouthpiece coupled to a proximal portion of the refillable tank and configured and arranged to rotate relative to the refillable tank along a common longitudinal axis.
An eCig clearomizer comprising:
- a hemicylindrical port including
- fluid inlet, and
- electrical pads, at least one of the electrical pads electrically coupled to a heater coil within the clearomizer;
- and
- wherein the hemicylindrical port is configured and arranged to
- electrically couple the heater coil with electrical circuitry of a power supply portion, and
- transfer a fluid from the power supply portion to the clearomizer in response to a vacuum pressure within the clearomizer.
