`when reading this specification, it should be recognized that the power supply device can
`also be driven manually. A person skilled in the art who has thoroughly read this
`specification will be able to reconstruct by excluding the component operating in
`response to the inhalation pressure described below in the case where the switching
`means is manual.
`[31] Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the
`accompanying exemplary drawings.
`[32] FIG. 1 schematically shows a vaporisation and inhalation device according to one
`preferred embodiment of the present invention, FIG. 2 shows a cross-sectional view of
`an assembled state of the device for vaporisation and inhalation shown in FIG. 1, FIG. 3
`shows an enlarged view of part A of FIG. 2, and FIG. 4 shows an enlarged view of part B
`of FIG. 2. In addition, FIG. 4 shows a part of an inhalation nozzle side of FIG. 2 and
`the flow of fluid such as vapor.
`[33] Referring to FIG. 1, the vaporisation and inhalation device according to a preferred
`embodiment of the present invention includes a vaporisation unit 100 of an inhalation
`nozzle side provided therein with a reservoir in which a target substance for vaporisation
`and inhalation is stored, a first connection body 200, a second connection body 300, and
`a power operation unit 400.
`[34] The power operation unit 400 has a curved portion on its side so that a user can easily
`grip it by hand.
`[35] The vaporisation unit 100 of the inhalation nozzle side is provided with an inhalation
`nozzle 102 communicating with the inside as shown in the figure, a first connection body
`200 is provided with a hole 210 leading to the inside of the screw thread portion
`connected to a second connection body 300. Meanwhile, the second connecting body
`300 has a groove at a portion connected to the first connection body 200, and the groove
`serves as an air passage 310 when coupled with the second connection body 300. In
`this embodiment, it is provided in the form of a groove, but those skilled in the art will
`recognize that it may be provided in the form of a hole as long as it communicates with
`the hole 210. The inner space between the air passage 310 and the hole 210 is formed
`
`
`
`NJOY Exhibit 1005.005

`
`
`
`to allow fluid movement.
`[36] Referring to FIGS. 2 and 3, the vaporisation and inhalation device according to a
`preferred embodiment of the present invention includes a reservoir 106 in which a
`substance to be vaporized is stored. As shown in the figure, the reservoir 106 has a
`closed structure except for the left portion. In the drawing, a liquid induction member
`108 including a capillary bundle through which a substance in a liquid state can move is
`provided in close contact with the open portion of the reservoir 106 on the left side of the
`reservoir 106. Non-limiting examples of the liquid induction member 108 may include
`multi-layered foamed nickel mesh, stainless fiber felt, polymer foam, and porous metal.
`[37] The liquid induction member 108 is supported on the rear side by a support member 122
`as shown in the figure.
`
`
`[38] In this embodiment, it is limited to the case where the substance to be vaporized stored in
`the reservoir 106 is maintained in a liquid state, but when the substance to be vaporized
`is a solid substance rather than a liquid, the liquid induction member 108 and its
`supporting member 122 may be omitted.
`
`
`[39] A heating element 110 is provided on the rear side of the support member 122. A
`heating wire may be preferably used as the heating element 110. The heating wire 110
`may be made of, for example, a composite material such as a nickel alloy or a rare earth
`element. In this embodiment, the heating element is used to vaporize the substance to
`be vaporized, but an ultrasonic generator may be used in addition to the heating element.
`When an ultrasonic generator is used, a thermal isolation member 120 described later
`may be omitted.
`
`
`[40] The thermal isolation member 120 capable of blocking heat generated from the heating
`element 110 is provided on the rear side of the heating element 110. The thermal
`isolation member 120 is made of ceramic, for example. In the thermal isolation
`member 120, provided is a jet orifice 118 through which the substance to be vaporized
`(liquid or solid substance) from the reservoir 106 is heated by the heating element 110,
`and the material in a vaporized state is inhaled through the inhalation nozzle 102. A
`backflow hole 116 is provided in the space between the reservoir 106 and the heating
`element 110 so that gaseous-state substances are converted into liquid-state substances,
`or liquid substances that have not reached the gaseous state are re-supplied to the
`reservoir.
`
`
`[41] Meanwhile, a liquid storage chamber 112 is provided on the rear side of the heating
`element 110 as shown in the figure, and the liquid-state substances stored in the liquid
`storage chamber 112 are converted back to gaseous-state substances by heating by the
`heating element 110. This liquid storage chamber 112 is made of, for example, a multi-
`layered foamed nickel mesh.
`
`
`[42] A moisture suppressing member 114 is provided on the rear side of the liquid storage
`chamber 112 to prevent the liquid-state substances from entering the rear side. One end
`of the liquid induction member 108 is connected to the liquid storage chamber 112, and a
`liquid absorption body such as a cotton thread is provided in the middle thereof. The
`liquid substances are introduced into the liquid storage chamber 112 by the capillarity of
`the liquid inducing member 108, and small liquid droplets are sprayed through the jet
`orifice 118 of the thermal isolation member 120 by the action of the air flow. The
`
`
`
`NJOY Exhibit 1005.006
`
`

`

`5
`
`
`
`liquid is vaporized by the action of the heating wire 110 and moves to the absorption
`nozzle 102 through the fluid passage provided on the outer surface of the liquid storage
`chamber 112.
`
`
`[43] The moisture suppressing member 114 serves to prevent the liquid in the liquid storage
`chamber 112 from flowing backward.
`
`
`[44] Referring to FIG. 5 together with FIG. 3, the reservoir 106 is provided in a casing 104
`spaced apart from the inner side thereof, and a fluid passage 116 through which a fluid
`including gaseous-state substances can move is provided between the outer
`circumferential surface of the reservoir 106 and the inner circumferential surface of the
`casing 104. An inhalation nozzle 102 is provided with the fluid passage 116 between
`the inner circumferential surface of the casing 104 and the outer circumferential surface
`of the reservoir 106. As shown in the figure, the inner surface of the inhalation nozzle
`102 is provided with a moisture suppressing container 120 for blocking the entry of
`moisture into the oral cavity.
`
`
`[45] Referring to FIG. 2 together with FIG. 1, the power operation unit 400 includes a power
`supply device 410 such as a rechargeable battery and a switching means.
`
`
`[46] The switching means is provided with a spring shown with reference numeral 412, a
`movable contact 404 which operates by moving transversely to the longitudinal action of
`the spring 412, and a fixed contact 406 which is electrically interrupted in contact with
`the movable contact 404. The spring 412 and the movable contact 404 are
`interconnected by a plastic rod 402 containing rubber as shown in the figure. The fixed
`contact 406 is fixed to the plastic support 407 as shown in the figure.
`
`
`[47] In FIG. 4, a connection portion between the first connection body 200 and the second
`connection body 300 is shown enlarged.
`
`
`[48] Referring to FIG. 4 together with FIG. 2, a switch valve 214 is provided in the first
`connection body 200, and an air entry hole 210 is formed on a side thereof. When the
`user inhales, air is introduced through the air entry hole 210, the switch valve 214 is
`opened, and a negative pressure chamber 408 is formed between the right side of the
`spring 412 and a connection conductor 301 by the action of the air flow. Due to the
`action of the negative pressure, the spring 412 moves to the right in the drawing, and at
`the same time, the movable contact 404 connected to the plastic rod 402 moves in the
`lateral direction and electrically contacts the fixed contact 406. When the user's
`inhalation power decreases, the switch valve 214 is closed and the air flow from the air
`entry hole 210 is blocked. The negative pressure chamber 408 is maintained for a
`certain period of time, and when the user stops inhaling, the air flow quickly enters the
`negative pressure chamber 408 through an intermediate passage 302 of the connection
`conductor 301. Accordingly, the negative pressure immediately disappears and the
`spring 412 is restored to its original position. When the spring 412 moves to its original
`position, the plastic rod 402 moves to the left in the drawing, and the movable contact
`404 is electrically disconnected from the fixed contact 406.
`
`
`[49] As shown in the figure, the connection conductor 301 is provided with a female screw
`thread 304 and a male screw thread 212 and connected to each other, the connection
`
`
`
`NJOY Exhibit 1005.007
`
`

`

`6
`
`
`conductor 301 is connected to the negative electrode of the wire connected to the heating
`element 110 and the two central rod-shaped conductors 206 and 310 are connected to the
`positive electrode of the wire connected to the heating element 110. The connection
`conductor 301 and the central rod-shaped conductor 310 are electrically separated by an
`insulating material 306 located therebetween.
`
`
`[50] FIG. 6 shows a variant of the power operation unit. Except for the fact that the outer
`shape of the power operation unit is cylindrical, it is the same as the vaporisation and
`inhalation device of the present invention shown in FIG. 1 described above.
`
`
`[51] Although not shown, the vaporisation and inhalation device according to the present
`invention is provided with a remaining amount display unit for displaying the remaining
`amount of power, and this display unit may be a liquid crystal display. Through the
`remaining amount display unit, the user can know the remaining amount of power, so
`that the replacement time of the power can be easily recognized.
`
`
`[52] In addition, the present invention includes the substances to be vaporized stored in the
`reservoir 106. The substances to be vaporized include both liquid-state substances and
`solid-state substances. In the case of solid-state substances, as described above, the
`liquid induction member 108 and the support member 122 are omitted so that heating by
`the heating element 110 is directly performed with one end of the reservoir 106 open.
`
`
`[53] For the substances to be vaporized stored in the reservoir 106, vaporisation-promoting
`substances and desired substances are mixed in a specific ratio, and stored together.
`
`
`[54] As the vaporisation-promoting substances in the substances to be vaporized belonging to
`a part of the present invention, at least one selected from propylene glycol, glycerin, or
`alcohols including ethanol is used. In particular, propylene glycol and glycerin are used
`in the present invention.

`vaporisation-promoting substance, and mint or rosemary, or a combination of the two, is
`used as the target substance. The weight ratio of propylene glycol to mint or rosemary
`used is preferably 1:0.5 to 10. In the case of mint, vaporisation is possible without the
`use of vaporisation-promoting substances, and it is also used for oral cleaning purposes.
`In the case of rosemary, it can also be used for concentration-enhancing purposes.
`[61] In addition, in particular, in the case of the purpose of stabilizing the mind and body,
`propylene glycol is used as the vaporisation-promoting substance, and lavender is used
`as the target substance. Lavender is preferably used in an amount of 1:0.5 to 10 based on
`the weight of the vaporisation-promoting substance.
`[62] Hereinafter, the present invention will be described by the following non-limiting
`examples.

`[64] At least one of propylene glycol, glycerin, or alcohol was selected and used as
`vaporisation-promoting substances and the substances listed in Table 2 below were used
`as the desired target substances for vaporisation and inhalation. In addition, the
`experiments were conducted both in the presence and absence of the target substances
`for vaporisation and inhalation and was performed while changing the vaporisation-
`promoting substances and the target substances for vaporisation and inhalation. As a
`result, except for some substances, vaporisation was carried out at a certain ratio of the
`vaporisation-promoting substances. According to the results, the experiment was
`conducted by setting the weight ratio of the vaporisation-promoting substance to the
`target substance for vaporisation and inhalation to be mixed in the range of 1:0.5 to 10.
`As a vaporisation and inhalation device, the device according to the present invention
`shown in FIG. 1 was used, and whether vaporisation was carried out or not was
`determined by visual identification and whether or not the distinctive fragrance of each
`was emitted. Vaporisation by visual identification is the basis for determining whether
`the target substances are vaporized or not, and fragrance emission is the basis for
`determining whether the target substances are vaporized alone or together with the
`vaporisation-promoting substances without changing its components.
