Abstract (en)
There is provided a liquid reservoir for an electronic smoking device. The liquid reservoir (34) has a body (110) forming a hollow tube surrounding a central passage (32) connecting an air inhalation port (36) with a further port for attaching the liquid reservoir (34) to a further portion of the electronic cigarette (10). The liquid reservoir (34) further has a nozzle (132) towards the central passage (32), the nozzle (32) being configured to release liquid from the reservoir (34) only when pressure drop along the nozzle (32) exceeds a threshold pressure. A user can produce the pressure drop by sucking at the air inhalation port (36) and/or by manually changing a length of the central passage (32) thereby causing compression of the liquid reservoir (34).
