Refillable device
The present disclosure relates to a refillable device. The refillable device includes a liquid chamber in the refillable device, a connection end, a sealing component arranged in the connection end, and a rotating mechanism. The liquid chamber is configured for storing tobacco liquid. The connection end is configured for connecting with an open end of a liquid injecting container. The sealing component defines a liquid inlet. The rotating mechanism tightly abuts against the sealing component. The rotating mechanism is rotatable between a first position where the liquid inlet is opened, and a second position where the liquid inlet is sealed.
SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR CONTROLLING VEHICLE REFUELING
Methods and systems are provided for refueling a vehicle configured with an onboard refueling vapor recovery (ORVR) system, such that a loading of a fuel vapor canister configured to capture and store fuel vapors, is reduced. In one example, during the refueling, a rate at which fuel vapors are routed to the fuel vapor canister is adjusted responsive to an indication that the vehicle is refueling at a gas station equipped with offboard fuel vapor recovery infrastructure. In this way, loading of the fuel vapor canister may be reduced which may prevent undesired bleedthrough emissions resulting from a canister loaded with fuel vapors, particularly in examples where the vehicle is a hybrid vehicle and where engine runtime is limited, thus limiting potential opportunities for purging of the fuel vapor canister.

Nozzle for a liquid dispensing spout
A nozzle for a dispensing spout provides physically separate conduits, through which a liquid and air pass between a reservoir containing a liquid to be dispensed and a container into which the liquid is to be dispensed. The fluid and air conduits, as well as their respective opposing ends, are sized and shaped to provide an unobstructed air conduit which can carry ambient air into the reservoir at a rate that is at least equal to the rate at which liquid can flow out of the reservoir at a gravitational flow rate.

Filling valve with leakage protection device
The invention relates to a filling valve for dispensing a fluid, comprising an inlet opening for connecting to a fluid supply line, an outlet end (12) which lies opposite the inlet opening, a main valve for controlling the flow of the fluid through the filling valve, and a leakage protection valve (13) which is arranged downstream of the main valve, comprising a valve seat (14) and a valve body (15, 16) which can be moved into a closed position in an upstream direction. According to the invention, the valve body (15, 16) has a first sub-body (15) and a second sub-body (16) which is designed to be movable relative to the first sub-body, wherein a first fluid path (17) can be released by a movement of the first sub-body (15) in a downstream direction relative to the valve seat (14), and a second fluid path (18) can be released by a movement of the second sub-body (16) in a downstream direction relative to the first sub-body (15). By virtue of the two-part valve body according to the invention, the flow of fluid through the filling valve can be optimized and the back pressure accumulating in front of the leakage protection valve can be reduced.

Electronic vaporiser system
An electronic cigarette vaporizer that includes a heating element and further includes or co-operates with an electronics module that (i) detects characteristics of the resistance of the heating element and (ii) uses an inference of temperature derived from that resistance as a control input. The temperature of the heating element may be inferred from data stored in the electronics module that has been empirically obtained for a specific heating element design. The electronics module controls the power delivered to the heating element to ensure that it is no higher than approximately 130 C., plus an error tolerance.
