Title: Electronic vaporiser system
Inventor: IAN MURISON
IPC: A24F40/48
Filed: 2016-09-01
Abstract: An electronic cigarette vaporiser that includes a front section (52) comprising a wick and heating assembly but no e-liquid cartridge, the front section being removably fitted to a body (53) of the vaporiser to enable a replacement front section to be used once the original wick or heating element starts to degrade, that replacement front section being supplied to the end-user with no e-liquid in it. The vaporiser is not intended to be dis-assembled for filling with e-liquid, but is filled from a user-replaceable e-liquid cartridge. The front section may attach to the body via a magnetic latch, a press-fit, or may screw into the body. The wick may comprise cotton or a ceramic, and may be a ceramic cell with a heating element inside the ceramic cell. The vaporiser may include or co-operate with an electronics module that monitors electrical characteristics, such as resistance, of the heating element and determines if said characteristics are associated with degradation of the heating element. The module may generate a signal indicating that the front section should be changed if degradation is detected. The vaporiser may be filled while inserted into a re-fill and re-charge case, which may be filled by a replaceable cartridge.

Title: Railway vehicle and head vehicle barrier-removing device thereof
Inventor: YANGYANG YU
IPC: B61F19/06
Filed: 2015-11-05
Abstract: Disclosed are a railway vehicle and a head vehicle barrier-removing device thereof. The head vehicle barrier-removing device comprises a flow guide plate (1), a front end framework (2) mounted at the front end of the inner side surface of the flow guide plate (1), and longitudinal beams (3) mounted on two sides of the inner side surface of the flow guide plate (1). The two ends of the front end framework (2) are connected to the longitudinal beams (3) on the two sides respectively. The rigidity of connecting positions (4) between the longitudinal beams (3) and the front end framework (2) is smaller than that of any position of the longitudinal beams (3) and the front end framework (2). When barriers are cleaned or train collision occurs, if the impact force exerted on the barrier-removing device exceeds the maximum load value that the barrier-removing device can bear, large extruding deformation is produced at the connecting positions (4) between the front end framework (2) and the longitudinal beams (3), so that the front end of the flow guide plate gradually retracts backwards, space is released for an energy absorption part that is mounted at the front end of a head vehicle, and therefore the energy absorption part is ensured to effectively absorb the impact energy, the passive safety of the vehicle is improved, and severe safety accidents such as vehicle climbing or derailing can be avoided.
