DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF SOME EMBODIMENTS

[038] The present disclosure is directed toward a vaporization device comprising discrete dosing cartridges and a novel dispensing mechanism which enables to provide a single predetermined dose and/or a mixture of predetermined doses of compositions for pulmonary delivery, wherein optionally the compositions comprise different types of materials having various different properties (e.g., viscosities, boiling points, etc.), while preventing producing toxins or burning composition ingredients. Specifically, said compositions may contain various plant extracts such as for a non-limiting example, different strands of cannabinoids, wherein the inhalation of the vapors thereof can result in various therapeutic effects.

[039] In the following description, various aspects of the disclosure will be described. For the purpose of explanation, specific configurations and details are set forth in order to provide a thorough understanding of the different aspects of the disclosure. However, it will also be apparent to one skilled in the art that the disclosure may be practiced without specific details being presented herein. Furthermore, well-known features may be omitted or simplified in order not to obscure the disclosure.

[040] Throughout the figures of the drawings, different superscripts for the same reference numerals are used to denote different embodiments of the same elements. Embodiments of the disclosed devices and systems may include any combination of different embodiments of the same elements. Specifically, any reference to an element without a superscript may refer to any alternative embodiment of the same element denoted with a superscript. In order to avoid undue clutter from having too many reference numbers and lead lines on a particular drawing, some components will be introduced via one or more drawings and not explicitly identified in every subsequent drawing that contains that component.

[041] In recent years, the use of medical cannabis (termed ‘MC’) for the treatment of chronic pain has emerged, along with an increase in demand and use by migraine patients. The cannabis plant contains hundreds of different active components including phytocannabinoids, terpenes and flavonoids. While Tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) and cannabidiol (CBD) are among the most well-known phytocannabinoids, others are likely to have biological activity as well. It is known that single cannabinoids have been shown to exert biological activity, Cannabis synergy, also known as the “entourage effect”, in which the combination of a variety of “minor cannabinoids” and Cannabis terpenoids markedly increase the activity of the primary endogenous cannabinoids. The multi-compound entourage effect suggests that studies examining the role of single-molecule cannabinoids in disease may not necessarily capture the synergies in multi-compound MC treatment. To add to the complexity of MC treatment with multiple compounds, there are hundreds of different cannabis chemovars, each having its own unique chemical composition. Thus, Cannabis-bas d compositions and/or mixtures containing combinations of different cannabinoids can be used in a variety of pharmaceutical applications in order to obtain high medical efficacy, relative to the use of a single strain of cannabinoid, for example as disclosed in detail at International Pub. No. WO 2020161715.

[042] Furthermore, various plant extracts, such as extracts from Levander or chamomile plants, also have known and beneficial therapeutic properties. The inhalation of various plant extracts can be also used for wellness or recreation uses such as improving focus, improving sleep, regenerating energy levels, reducing anxiety, reducing or suppressing depression, and the like.

[043] In order to provide a personalized blend or mixture of doses of compositions, preferably including a plurality of various types of cannabinoids which are present in the composition in relative amounts that are substantially identical to their relative amounts in the Cannabis extract, and thus can provide a variety of therapeutic beneficial effects, it is required to heat different ingredients separately to different boiling/vaping temperatures, which may not overlap. Alternatively or additionally, the compositions may include other plant extracts useful for wellness or recreation uses, as well as optionally having therapeutic effects.

[044] Furthermore, it can be challenging to mix different types of compositions for pulmonary delivery in a single cartridge of a vaporization device, since different types of substances can have different properties (e.g., viscosities), and therefore not easily form a homogeneous mixture. Moreover, different ingredients of compositions or mixtures, such as essential oils, nicotine, tobacco, and various plant extracts (e.g., cannabinoids or other Cannabis extracts), each have different boiling or vaporization temperatures.

[045] For example, Tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) is a principal psychoactive type of cannabinoid, which has various therapeutic effects and may assist in alleviating symptoms of pain and other physical discomfort. THC is often vaped at a temperature of about 155-160 °C. Cannabidiol (CBD) is another type of cannabinoid, which is non-psychoactive and has various therapeutic effects, including anti-convulsant (suppresses epileptic seizures), anti-cancer (hampers the growth of tumor cells), anti-inflammatory and anti-oxidant properties (fights against neurodegenerative disorders such as Alzheimer's disease). Studies also show that CBD alleviates anxiety and depression. CBD is often vaped at a temperature of about 160-180 °C. Cannabidol (CBN) is a byproduct which is formed during THC degradation. CBN has various therapeutic effects and was found useful in inducing sleep, thus making it a good drug for users suffering from insomnia. CBN is often vaped at a temperature of about 185 °C.

[046] Similarly, chamomile is one of the most ancient medicinal herbs known to mankind. The dried flowers of chamomile contain many terpenoids and flavonoids contributing to its medicinal properties (Srivastava, J. K., at al., Chamomile: A herbal medicine of the past with a bright future. Molecular medicine reports, 3(6), (2010) 895-901). Inhalation of the vaporized essential oils derived from chamomile flowers is recommended to relieve anxiety, general depression, and the like, and can be vaporized at temperatures greater than about 30 °C.

[047] Compositions for vaporization and subsequent inhalation (i.e., pulmonary delivery) can also include various types of essential oils, which consists of different components such as terpenoid hydrocarbons, oxygenated terpenes and sesquiterpenes, which are responsible for the characteristic aroma/smell of the induced vapors. Different types of essential oils vary in their properties (e.g., boiling points, viscosities, etc.) and each contain a variety of different terpenes (which are the fragrance molecules).

[048] Therefore, it is problematic to heat and vaporize compositions or preprepared mixtures as disclosed above in a single cartridge and optionally at a specific temperature, which may result in the burning thereof, such that the beneficial effects of the compositions are not obtained, and the burned ingredients can be toxic, harmful and have an unpleasant taste. Furthermore, a single cartridge does not enable to form customized doses and mixtures of different cannabinoids mixtures for achieving various therapeutic effects, and does not enable to form customize mixtures according to different user preferences.

[049] Accordingly, in some embodiments, in order to maintain the synergy between different Cannabis constituents, known as the entourage effect, the present invention provides a vaporization device comprising a plurality of discrete dosing cartridges and a novel dispensing mechanism which enables to provide discrete or predetermined doses of different compositions for pulmonary delivery. The cartridges can comprise different composition comprising one or more strand(s) of different cannabinoid(s) having different properties (e.g., various boiling points and viscosities), in order to enable to form customized blends thereof for a single combined inhalation by a user, while preventing producing toxins or burning composition ingredients.

[088] According to some embodiments, each one of the plurality of tablets 130 (within each cartridge 112) has an elongated 3D shape (e.g., such as a box, cylinder, ellipsoid, etc.), i.e., the long dimension thereof (e.g., length) is greater than the short dimension (e.g., width or diameter) thereof. For a non-limiting example, the length of said elongated tablets 130 may be at least 1.5 times, at least two times, at least three times, at least five times, or more, greater than of the width or diameter thereof. According to a specific embodiment, each one of the plurality of tablets 130 is shaped as an elongated 3D rectangle optionally having rounds edges (e.g., a box), as illustrated for example at Figure 2B.

[089] According to some embodiments, the plurality of tablets 130 within each cartridge 112 are arranged one over the other along the central axis 103, so that the long dimension of each tablet 130 is rotated at an angle selected from about 10°-90° relative to the long dimension of a following tablet 130.

[090] According to a specific embodiment, the plurality of tablets 130 within each cartridge 112 are stacked one over the other along the central axis 103 in alternating orientations, so that each tablet 130 is oriented or rotated at a 90° angle relative to the following tablet 130, as illustrated at Figure 2B. According to some embodiments, the plurality of tablets 130 within each cartridge 112 are stacked one over the other along the central axis 103, so that the long dimension of each tablet 130 is positioned substantially vertically to the long dimension of the following tablet 130 positioned there-above and/or there-below. According to some embodiments, the plurality of tablets 130 are disposed at a criss-cross arrangement placed one over the other within each cartridge 112.

[091] According to a specific embodiment, the internal cartridge space 117 within each cartridge 112 is 3D elongated cross-shaped, configured to accommodate therein the plurality of tablets 130 which are stacked one over the other in alternating vertical orientations as disclosed above, as illustrated for example at Figures 2A-2B. However, it is to be understood that the internal cartridge space 117 can be shaped in any three-dimensional (3D) form or structure suitable to accommodate therein the plurality of tablets 130 arranged as disclosed above, such as an ellipsoid, box, cylinder, or any other suitable polyhedron in the art. Each possibility represents a different embodiment.

[092] According to some embodiments, the internal cartridge space 117 within each cartridge 112 is 3D elongated cross-shaped, and is configured to correspond to the dimensions and shapes of the plurality of tablets 130 disposed therein, which are stacked one over the other in alternating vertical orientations. In further embodiments, the shape and dimensions of the internal cartridge space 117 within each cartridge 112 is adapted to enable the easy insertion of the plurality of tablets 130 thereto, but prevents the inner movement or rotation of any one tablet 130 of the plurality of tablets 130 disposed there-inside along a direction or plane which is vertical to the cartridge central axis 103. In further such embodiments, the plurality of tablets 130 disposed within the internal cartridge space 117 can move up and down along the cartridge central axis 103, but are prevented from rotating vertically to the cartridge central axis 103, due the dimensions and shape of the internal cartridge space 117.

[093] According to some embodiments, the opening 116 located at the first surface 114a of each cartridge 112 has an elongated shape configured to correspond to the shape of each one of the plurality of tablets 130, and to enable each tablet 130 to pass or be transferred therethrough. According to a specific embodiment, each opening 116 is shaped as an elongated rectangle having round edges as illustrated for example at Figures 2A-2B, configured to enable the elongated 3D rectangle- shaped tablet 130 to pass therethrough.

[094] According to some embodiments, upon receiving commands from the controller 160, the at least one actuator 118 is configured to rotate at least one of the opening 116 located at the first surface 114a, the cartridge bottom member 116a, or the cartridge housing 115 of at least one cartridge 112, so as to enable a single tablet 130 (i.e., bottom tablet 130a) to exit from the internal cartridge space 117 thereof at a time, while simultaneously pressing the remaining tablets 130 within said cartridge 112 downwards towards the opening 116 thereof. In further embodiments, the at least one actuator 118 is configured to rotate the openings 116 located at the first surfaces 114a or the cartridge housings 115 of the plurality of cartridges 112, so as to enable a single tablet 130 to be dispensed from the internal cartridge space 117 of each cartridge 112 separately one at a time, while simultaneously pressing the remaining tablets 130 downwards towards the openings 116 within each cartridge 112 which released a tablet 130 from the opening 116 thereof. In some embodiments, the shape of the opening 116 is aligned each time with the shape of the lowest tablet 130 disposed within the cartridges 112 closest to the first surface 114a thereof, while preventing the subsequent tablet 130 from passing therethrough due to its rotated orientation and the shape thereof. [095] After the dispensing of a bottom tablet 130a from the internal cartridge space 117 of a cartridge 112, a new bottom tablet 130a (the following tablet) is prevented from also being dispensed therefrom, since the shape thereof is aligned vertically relative to the shape and alignment of the opening 116, and therefore becomes physically lodged within the cartridge 112 due to the alignment and shape thereof. Thus, the remaining tablets 130 disposed within said cartridge 112 are prevented from further being dispensed therefrom, until the next rotation of the opening 116 to align the shape thereof with the shape of the new bottom tablet 130a. In this way, the shape of the rotating opening 116 and the alignment of the tablets 130 within the cartridge 112 enables to dispense a single tablet therefrom at a time.

[096] Alternatively, the remaining tablets 130 disposed within said cartridge 112 are prevented from further being dispensed therefrom, until the next rotation of the cartridge housing 115, which rotates the plurality of tablets 130 disposed therein, until the next lowest tablet 130 aligns with the shape of the stationary opening 116. In this way, the shape of the stationary opening 116 and the alignment of the tablets 130 within the rotating cartridge housing 115 of each cartridge 112 enables to dispense a single tablet therefrom at a time.

[097] According to a specific embodiment, upon receiving commands from the controller 160, at least one actuator 118 from the plurality of actuators 118 within the device 100 is configured to rotate the opening 116 (or the cartridge bottom member 116a) or the cartridge housing 115 of a corresponding cartridge 112, to enable the bottom tablet 130a to exit therefrom at a time, while simultaneously pressing the remaining tablets 130 within said cartridge 112 downwards towards the opening 116 thereof, in order to advance them towards the opening 116 for the dispensing of the following tablet upon the next rotation of the opening or the housing.

[098] As used herein, the term "downwards" refers to a direction facing towards the gravitational direction, such as for example towards an opening 116 of a cartridge 112, along the cartridge central axis 103.

[099] According to some embodiments, each cartridge 112 or dispensing mechanism 108 further comprises a pressing element 119a (e.g., a spring) disposed within each cartridge 112 and configured to press or push the remaining tablets 130 within said cartridge 112 downwards towards the opening 116, following the discharge of the bottom tablet 130a, in order to advance them towards the opening 116 for the dispensing of the following tablet, upon the next rotation of the opening 116 or the housing 115. In further embodiments, the actuators 118 are configured to be spring -biassing the tablets 130 downwards to the opening 116 of each cartridge 112. According to some embodiments, the pressing element 119a is a spring.

[0100] According to some embodiments, each pressing element 119a within each cartridge 112 is further coupled to a pushing member 119b, wherein said pushing member 119b is shaped to fit into the internal cartridge space 117, as illustrated at Figure 2C. According to some embodiments, each cartridge 112 or dispensing mechanism 108 further comprises a pressing element 119a coupled to a pushing member 119b disposed within each cartridge 112, wherein the pressing element 119a is configured to press or push the pushing member 119b downwards, wherein the pushing member 119b contacts the upper tablet 130b and presses it, thereby pressing or pushing the remaining tablets 130 within the cartridge 112 downwards, in order to advance them towards the opening 116 for additional future dispensing therefrom. According to further embodiments, the pushing member 119b is made from a flexible and/or elastic and/or soft material (e.g., a sponge or a foam), configured to form delicate contacts with the upper tablet 130b and/or to spread the downward pushing force among a bigger surface, in order to preserve the shape and form of the tablets and to prevent them from deforming or breaking during the pushing thereof.

[0101] It is contemplated that the elongated shape of the opening 116 of each cartridge 112 as disclosed above enables only a single tablet 130 to exit therefrom, upon each rotation thereof or rotation of the housing 115 (see Figures 2D-2E). Figure 2D illustrates how the orientation of the opening 116 prevents from the bottom tablet 130a from being dispensed therethrough, while figure 2E illustrates how the orientation of the opening 116 enable the bottom tablet 130a to be dispensed therethrough.

[0102] Due to the arrangement of the plurality of tablets 130 within each cartridge 112, which are preferably stacked one over the other in alternating vertical orientations as disclosed above, only a single tablet 130 (bottom tablet 130a) can exit from each opening 116 upon a single rotation thereof or rotation of the housing 115. The opening 116 (or bottom member 116a) is rotated so that the long dimension thereof is aligned in parallel with the long dimension of the tablet 130 closest thereto upon each rotation (see Figures 2D-2E). It is further contemplated that the rotated orientation and the elongated shape of the opening 116 enable to prevent the subsequent tablet 130 from passing therethrough, thereby enabling to discharge a single tablet at a time (i.e., upon each rotation). Advantageously, the combination between the arrangement of the plurality of tablets 130 within each cartridge 112 and the elongated shape of each rotating opening 116 as disclosed above, allows to discretely discharge a single tablet 130 upon a single rotation of each opening 116, and since each tablet 130 comprises a predetermined dose of a composition 132 therein, this combination allows to control the dosage provided by each cartridge 112.

[0103] Alternatively, the opening 116 (or bottom member 116a) is stationary, while the housing 115 is rotated as disclosed herein above so that the tablets disposed therein are rotated as well, to enable the long dimension of the bottom tablet 130a disposed therein to be aligned in parallel with the long dimension of the stationary opening 116. It is further contemplated that the rotating housing 115 and the elongated shape of the opening 116 enable to prevent the subsequent tablet 130 from passing therethrough, thereby enabling to discharge a single tablet at a time. Advantageously, the combination between the arrangement of the plurality of tablets 130 within each cartridge 112, the elongated shape of each stationary opening 116, and the rotating housing 115 as disclosed above, allows to discretely discharge a single tablet 130 upon a single rotation of each housing 115, and since each tablet 130 comprises a predetermined dose of a composition 132 therein, this combination allows to control the dosage provided by each cartridge 112.

[0128] In some embodiments, activation of the dispensing mechanism 108 comprises the power source 140 suppling energy to at least one actuator 118 of the plurality of actuators, in order to allow said actuator 118 to rotate the cartridge bottom member 116a (or the opening 116 extending therethrough) or the cartridge housing 115 of at least one first cartridge 112, in order to align the shape of the opening 116 with the shape of the bottom tablet 130a, thereby enabling to release the bottom tablet 130a therefrom into the vapor generating chamber 124 (e.g., heating chamber 124), while simultaneously pressing the remaining tablets 130 within said first cartridge 112 downwards towards the opening 116 thereof, for future dispensing purposes. The remaining tablets 130 disposed within the first cartridge 112 are prevented from exiting or being dispensed therefrom, since the shape of the new bottom tablet 130a is aligned vertically relative to the shape of the opening 116, and therefore becomes physically lodged within the cartridge 112 due to the alignment of the opening 116.

[0129] Next, the same actuator 118 can optionally rotate the opening 116 or the cartridge housing 115 again, in order to align the shape of the new bottom tablet 130a with the shape of the opening 116, thereby to release the new bottom tablet therefrom. Alternatively or additionally, another actuator 118 can optionally rotate the cartridge bottom member 116a (or the opening 116 extending therethrough) or the cartridge housing 115 of at least one second cartridge 112, to align the shape of the opening 116 with the shape of the bottom tablet 130a disposed therein and to release it therefrom. In this way, a plurality of tablets 130 can be released into the heating chamber 124 from a plurality of cartridges 112.

[0130] In some embodiments, when the plurality of tablets 130 within the heating chamber 124 forms the desired combination of compositions 132, prior to the activation of the heating element 125, the heating chamber 124 can be sealed, such as by closing one or more designated opening(s) in the heating chamber 124 which enabled the dispensing of the plurality of tablets 130 thereto. Sealing the heating chamber 124 can also refer to the thermal sealing or isolation thereof. By sealing the heating chamber 124, heat generated therein by the heating element 125 cannot be transported out therefrom, and therefore cannot affect the plurality of cartridges 112 disposed there-above and/or the plurality of tablets 130 disposed therein.

[0131] Alternatively or additionally, other forms of heat isolation techniques can be utilized to prevent from heat generated within the heating chamber 124 to affect the plurality of tablets 130 disposed within the plurality of cartridges 112.

[0132] In some embodiments, after the plurality of tablets 130 within the heating chamber 124 forms the desired combination of compositions 132, corresponding to the desired overall dosage of tablets 130 matching the specific chosen cannabinoids mixture, the heating element 125 is activated by the controller 160 to produce heat. The compositions 132 disposed within tablets 130 disposed within the heating chamber 124 are heated, and eventually are transformed into vapors. The vapors exits from the tablets and forms a vapor mixture within the heating chamber 124. [0133] As disclosed above, the composition 132 comprises at least one substance (e.g., cannabinoid) or a plurality of substances which can vaporize under the application of heat within the heating chamber 124. Therefore, it is to be understood that the phrase "the compositions 132 disposed within the tablets 130 are heated and eventually are transformed into vapors" refers to the heating and vaporization of the at least one substance or a plurality of substances disposed within the composition(s) 132, and not necessarily refers to the vaporization of all of the substances disposed within the compositions 132. For a non-limiting example, a cannabinoids mixture may be heated and vaporized from the tablets, however a carrier material disposed within the composition will not be vaporized and will remain within the tablets.

[0134] According to some embodiments, the controller 160 can adjust the amount of thermal energy applied by the heating element 125 to correspond to the specific chosen cannabinoids mixture, by controlling the activation of the power source 140 and/or the power transferring therefrom, to the heating element. In further such embodiments, the power source 140 supplies a current pulse of a pre-determined time to heating element 125, wherein the pre-determined time for the current pulse will determine the amount of heating energy which is being applied by heating element 125 to the tablets 130, and is depended on the amount and properties of compositions 132 required for a single inhalation (e.g., the overall dosage of tablets 130), and the time taken for that amount of liquid to be vaporized. That will, in turn, depend on: the types and total amount of the compositions disposed within the heating chamber 124, and their properties (boiling point, viscosity, etc.). The pre-determined time may be between about 0.1 and about 60 seconds, or preferably between about 0.1 and about 10 seconds. The predetermined time may be in a time range suitable for the user to comfortably draw air into the device.

[0135] Advantageously, by controlling the amount of thermal energy applied by the heating element to correspond to the amount and properties of the compositions 132 required for a single inhalation, the desired vapor mixture can be achieved without over-heating the compositions 132 or creating toxins or bad tastes. [0136] According to some embodiments, the vapor mixture is mixed with air flowing into the heating chamber 124 via at least one air intake path 127, wherein said at least one air intake path 127 is configured to enable fluid communication between the heating chamber 124 and the external environment of the device 100, therethrough. As a result, the vapor condenses to form an inhalable aerosol mixture, which is carried towards the fluid path 152 and towards the mouthpiece 150.

[0137] According to alternative embodiments, the vapor mixture is released from the heating chamber 124 towards the fluid path 152, and is then mixed with air flowing into fluid path 152 via the at least one air intake path 127, to form an inhalable aerosol mixture which is carried towards the mouthpiece 150.

[0138] According to some embodiments, the heating chamber 124 and/or the fluid path 152 are permeable to the passage of air, via the at least one air intake path 127. In some embodiments, the at least one air intake path 127 enable fluid communication (e.g., air) between the external environment and the heating chamber 124 and/or the fluid path 152.

[0139] According to some embodiments, the controller 160 can sense when the inhalable aerosol mixture is formed within the device 100, via the data transformation by one or more suitable sensors (e.g., temperature sensor, pressure sensor, etc.) disposed within the heating chamber 124 and/or the fluid path 152. Then, the user interaction portion 166 can issue a notification to the user indicating that the inhalable aerosol mixture is ready for pulmonary delivery. The user can then use the mouthpiece 150 to inhale the aerosol mixture.

[0140] Thus, advantageously, the vaporization devices of the present invention (e.g., vaporization device 100) can be used for providing customized mixtures of aerosols for inhalation by a user (via pulmonary delivery), wherein said customized mixtures can have various therapeutic effects used for various forms of medical applications. Furthermore, the specific cannabinoids mixture, corresponding to the desired overall dosage of tablets 130 achieved by the operation of the dispensing mechanism 108 as disclosed herein above, can maintain the beneficial entourage effect of various cannabinoids mixtures as disclosed herein above. [0141] In some embodiments, the customized mixtures can be used for treating or suppressing a disease or a disorder selected from cancer, chronic pain, migraine, other relevant conditions, and a combination thereof. In further embodiments, the customized mixtures can be used for the treatment of chronic pain. In further embodiments, the customized mixtures can be used for the treatment of migraines. In further embodiments, the customized mixtures can be used for treating or suppressing a disease or a disorder, such as various forms of cancer. In some embodiments, the customized mixtures can be used for wellness and/or recreation uses.

[0142] As used herein, the terms “treating” and “treatment” refer to a method of alleviating or abrogating a disease and/or its attendant symptoms.

[0143] After the formation of the vapor mixture and/or after the inhalation by the user, the plurality of used tablets 130 disposed within the heating chamber 124 can be ejected therefrom, to free the space therein and to make room for the dispensing of new tablets 130 for additional inhalations. The ejection thereof can be automatically performed by the device. Alternatively or additionally, the user can manually eject or dispose of used tablets 130 from the device 100, upon demand and/or upon receiving indication from the device that the heating chamber is full and need to be emptied. According to some embodiments, the heating chamber 124 can be opened to release the used tablet(s) 130 therefrom. According to some embodiments, device 100 or specifically the heating chamber 124 comprises at least one mechanism configured to transport used tablet(s) 130 into another compartment of the device that can be removed and emptied.

Each rail 323 and a corresponding collecting chamber 320 is positioned below a corresponding layer 309 of cartridges 112, wherein each collecting chamber 320 is configured to collect or receive one or more tablets 130 discharged simultaneously from one or more corresponding cartridges 112 arranged along parallel lines disposed within the same layer 309, positioned there-above. The operation of the displacement mechanism 322 below each layer 309 of cartridges 112 is similar to the operation of the displacement mechanism 122 as illustrated at Figures 4A-4B and disclosed herein above.

[0181] In a specific embodiment, the device 300 comprises two layers 309 of cartridges 112, a first layer 309a and a second layer 309b, disposed therein stacked one over the other, wherein each layer 309 comprises a single line of parallel cartridges 112, as illustrated at Figure 6A. The device 300 comprises a displacement mechanism 322 comprising two rails 323 and two corresponding rail actuators 321, wherein each rail 323 is coupled to a single collecting chamber 320 which is configured to be displaced there-along due to the operation of the corresponding rail actuator 321.

According to other embodiments, all the cartridges 112 are positioned above the heating chamber 424, so that upon the rotation of each opening 116, a tablet 130 can fall in the gravitational direction directly from its corresponding cartridge 112 and into the heating chamber 424.

[0195] The heating chamber 424 comprises at least one heating element 425 disposed therein, which may be the same or different from heating element 125 as disclosed herein above. According to some embodiments, the at least one heating element 425 is configured to transfer heat to the tablets 130 disposed within the heating chamber 424, to heat the composition(s) 132 disposed therein. In some embodiments, the at least one heating element 425 is configured to enable the transformation of the composition(s) disposed within the one or more tablets 130 into a vapor mixture. In some embodiments, the at least one heating element 425 is configured to receive power from the at least one power source 140 and is operatively connected to the controller 160.

[0196] According to some embodiments, the heating chamber 424 is connected directly to a central channel 427 positioned along the central axis 105, wherein the plurality of actuators 118 are aligned in parallel to the central axis 105 and circumferentially around the central channel 427, and wherein the plurality of cartridges 112 are disposed circumferentially around the corresponding plurality of actuators 118, as illustrated at Figures 7A-7C. According to some embodiments, the central channel 427 is in fluid communication with the fluid path 152 and/or with the mouthpiece 150. According to some embodiments, at least a portion of the fluid path 152 extends through the central channel 427. According to some embodiments, the central channel 427 comprises a hollow inner space which defines the fluid path 152 or at least a portion thereof. According to some embodiments, the central channel 427 enables fluid communication between the heating chamber 424 and the mouthpiece 150. According to some embodiments, the central channel 427 is the fluid path 152.

[0197] According to some embodiments, the vapor mixture formed within the heating chamber 424 evaporates or is transferred therefrom and into the central channel 427, and then into the fluid path 152 and/or into the mouthpiece 150, onwards towards the mouth of the user.

[0198] According to some embodiments, device 400 comprises a round cover 428 disposed within the internal space 413 and positioned above the plurality of cartridges 112 and the corresponding plurality of actuators 118.

Due to the rotation of the spring 619, the plurality of tablets 130 which are entangled within the spring 619 are displaced or moved downwards along the rotation axis of the spring 619 towards the opening 616 of the cartridge 612. It is contemplated, in some embodiments, that when the spring 619 rotates, the plurality of tablets 130 entangled therein are prevented from rotating right or left vertically to the cartridge central axis 103 due the dimensions and shape of the internal cartridge space 117, and therefore the plurality of tablets 130 are moved downwards along the cartridge central axis 103 towards the opening 616 of the cartridge 612.

[0217] When the spring 619 rotates, the plurality of tablets 130 are moved downwards, until the bottom tablet 130a exists the cartridge 612 via the opening 116 and is transferred or falls into the collecting chamber (e.g., collecting chamber 120) or into the vapor generating chamber (e.g., heating chamber 124). If the spring 619 continues to rotate within the cartridge 612, the tablets 130 disposed therein continue to be advanced downwards, so that additional tablets 130 can be released therefrom into the collecting chamber or the heating chamber. In this way, a plurality of tablets 130 can be released into the collecting chamber or the heating chamber from a plurality of cartridges 112. The remaining operation of device 600 is similar to that of device 100 as disclosed herein above.

The support structure is preferably porous enough to permit the passage of air or vapors, while still preventing the loss of substances from the composition 132 contained therein.

[0228] According to some embodiments, the tablet 130 is made from two layers: a first layer 133 and a second layer 134, wherein the composition 132 is retained or encapsulated or disposed between the two layers. In some embodiments, when the two layers are attached to each other, they form an internal space therebetween, which contains at least a portion of the composition 132 therein, or the entire the composition 132 therein.

[0229] In some embodiments, both the first layer 133 and the second layer 134 are made from a porous metal or metal alloy support structure comprising a plurality of holes or pores 135, wherein the composition 132 is retained or entrapped or disposed between the two layers and optionally within the pores thereof, as illustrated at Figure 10B. It is contemplated, in some embodiments, that the composition 132 remains between the two layers due to capillary forces and optionally the viscosity thereof, which prevents from the composition 132 from spilling out therefrom via the pores of the layers.

[0230] According to other embodiments, the first layer 133 is made from a full or continuous metallic sheet or layer devoid of pores or holes, and the second layer 134 is made from a porous metal or metal alloy support structure comprising a plurality of holes or pores 135, as illustrated at Figures 11A-11B. It is contemplated, in some embodiments, that the full or continuous bottom first layer 133 which is devoid of pores or holes allows to prevent or reduce the possibility that the composition 132 will leak or spill out therefrom. Furthermore, the porous top second layer 134 allows to the composition 132 to evaporate therethrough (i.e., via the pores thereof), when heated, in order to form the desired vapor mixture as disclosed above.

[0231] According to alternative embodiments, the first layer 133 is made from a full or continuous metallic sheet or layer, and the second layer 134 is made from a full or continuous metallic sheet or layer comprising a plurality of holes 136 spaced apart from each other, as illustrated at Figures 13A-13B. According to some embodiments, the first layer 133 comprises a plurality of holes 136 spaced apart from each other similar to the second layer 134, or wherein the first layer 133 is devoid of pores or holes. It is contemplated, in some embodiments, that having the second layer 134 made from a continuous metallic sheet comprising a plurality of holes 136 spaced apart from each other (instead or a porous material) may enable for an improved sealing of the composition 132 disposed between the two layers, and further may enable a refined or controllable evaporation process following the heating thereof.

[0232] According to some embodiments, the two layers are coupled or connected to each other along at least two opposite edges thereof, or optionally along all of the opposite edges thereof. According to some embodiments, the at least two opposite edges are coupled or connected to each other via suturing, welding, using adhesives, bending, adding a connection mechanism, other known connection methods, and combinations thereof.

[0233] According to some embodiments, the two layers are coupled or connected to each other along at least two opposite edges thereof, thereby forming at least two opposing bent connections 137 therebetween protruding above the second layer 134 thereof.

[0234] According to some embodiments, the two layers are coupled or connected to each other along at least two opposite edges thereof, wherein one of the layers is bent over the other layer, thereby forming a bent connection therebetween at at least two opposite edges thereof. For example, the first layer 133 of a tablet 130 can be bent over the second layer 134 of said tablet at two opposite edges thereof, thereby forming two bent connections 137 therebetween protruding above the second layer 134 thereof, as illustrated for example at Figures 11A-11B or 13A-B. In some embodiments, when the plurality of tablets 130 are stacked one over the other in alternating vertical orientations as disclosed above (for example within device 100), the bent connections 137 of each tablet 130 may enable to distance between the first and second layers of subsequent of following tablets 130, thereby reducing or diminishing the contact points between subsequent tablets 130. It is contemplated, in some embodiments, that distancing between subsequent tablets 130 may enable to prevent or reduce the possibility of adherence between the compositions 132 of subsequent tablets 130 (possibly due to leakage), and therefore reduces the possibility of forming composition mixtures at the contact points of subsequent tablets 130, which can contribute to material loss. [0235] According to some embodiments, the two layers are coupled or connected to each other along at least two opposite edges thereof, and optionally are detachably attached to each other, utilizing a connection mechanism such as, but not limited to, snap-fit fastener mechanism, bayonet mount, screw fittings, or any structural mechanism similar thereto. Each possibility represents a separate embodiment of the present invention. According to further embodiments, the two layers are coupled to each other via a cantilever snap-fit fastener 138 disposed in the vicinity of each one of the two opposite edges of the tablet (Figure 12A), or along the two opposite edges thereof (Figure 12B). The snap-fit fastener can be laser cut or punched and bent from any one of the two layers.

[0236] Reference is now made to Figure 14, illustrating a method 1000 for providing customized mixtures of aerosols for inhalation, according to some embodiments.

[0237] According to another aspect, there is provided a method 1000 for providing customized mixtures of aerosols for inhalation by a user (for pulmonary delivery), the method comprising step 1010 of providing a vaporization device (e.g., any one of vaporization devices 100-600) as disclosed herein above.

[0238] According to some embodiments, the method 1000 further comprises step 1020 of selecting a predetermined or custom compositions mixture formula (e.g., cannabinoids mixture) by the user, via the user interaction portion (e.g., user interaction portion 166) or via an external computing device. According to some embodiments, the mixture formulas of step 1020 can be predetermined, wherein the formulas of step 1020 are stored within the controller or are transferred thereto via an external computing device. According to other embodiments, the mixture formulas of step 1020 can be custom made by the user or programable according to input received by the user and/or according to user variables (e.g., sex, weight, age, medical history, etc.) entered into the vaporization device via the user interaction portion or the external computing device, as disclosed herein above.

[0239] According to some embodiments, during step 1020 the user selects a predetermined compositions mixture formula from a plurality of preprogrammed formulas, optionally stored within the vaporization device. [0240] According to other embodiments, during step 1020 the user enters user data including user variables (e.g., sex, weight, age, medical history, clinical conditions, etc.) and desired preferences and desired effect to be achieved into the vaporization device, via the user interaction portion. Then, the controller analyzes the user data and makes a determination for at least one recommended treatment protocol, based on the analysis performed thereby. The controller may output the at least one recommended treatment protocol via the user interaction portion. According to some embodiments, the recommended treatment protocol comprises a combination of compositions 132 from one or more specific tablets 130, thereby forming a custom compositions mixture formula for the user.

[0241] The user can select the custom compositions mixture formula of the recommended treatment protocol or one of the predetermined compositions mixtures stored within the device, and then method 1000 advances to step 1030.

[0242] According to some embodiments, the method 1000 further comprises step 1030 of actuating the dispensing mechanism (e.g., dispensing mechanisms 108 or 608), thereby dispensing one or more tablets 130 into the vapor generating chamber (e.g., heating chamber 124) or the collecting chamber (e.g., collecting chamber 120), to form the desired combination of compositions 132 therein, according to the predetermined or custom compositions mixture formula selected at step 1020. According to further embodiments, the recommended treatment protocol of step 1020 comprises instructions for the operation of the dispensing mechanism during step 1030, i.e., actuating one or more specific actuators in order to dispense one or more specific tablets 130 (from one or more specific cartridges) into the vapor generating chamber (e.g., heating chamber) or the collecting chamber.

[0243] According to some embodiments, the method 1000 further comprises step 1040 of forming a vapor mixture within the vapor generating chamber (e.g., heating chamber) or the collecting chamber. In further specific embodiments, step 1040 comprises actuating a heating element (e.g., heating elements 125 or 126) and producing heat, thereby transforming the compositions 132 disposed within the tablets 130 into vapor. The vapors exits from the tablets and forms a vapor mixture within the heating chamber or the collecting chamber. The vapor mixture condenses to form an inhalable aerosol mixture, which is carried via the fluid path towards the mouthpiece of the device.

[0244] According to some embodiments, the method 1000 further comprises step 1050 of inhaling the aerosol mixture of step 1040 via the mouthpiece (e.g., mouthpiece 150) by the user.
