Flexible circuit board and an electronic vaporizing inhaler comprising a flexible circuit board

Abstract

A flexible circuit board comprises an elongate strip of flexible material having electricity conducting circuitry disposed therein or thereon. A first flap of material is disposed generally transversely to the first end of the elongate strip, where the first flap supports an inner electrode disposed over a center portion of the first flap and an outer electrode disposed around a perimeter of the first flap. Both the inner electrode and the outer electrodes are in electrical communication with the circuitry. A second flap of material is disposed generally transversely to the second end of the elongate strip, where the second flap supports a microprocessor in electrical communication with the circuitry. A first electrical lead is disposed on the elongate strip near the first end and a second electrical lead is disposed on the elongate strip near the second end. The first electrical lead electrically communicates with one of the inner electrode and the outer electrode, and the second electrical lead communicates with the other of the inner electrode and the outer electrode.
