Abstract (en)

[origin: US2017354181A1] A reservoir for inhalant product used in electronic cigarettes and electronic pens is provided which incorporates a convex or conical smooth bottom wall catch basin that, combined with a dual wick design, ensures that substantially all the inhalant product is directed to the wicks for maximum consumability of the inhalant product. Therefore, regardless of how much or how little oil/liquid inhalant product is remaining in the reservoir or the position of the reservoir, it is always being directed toward at least one wick so there is substantially no unusable space in the reservoir where product can collect and not be useable.
