Nicotine pod assemblies and nicotine e-vaping devices

Abstract

A nicotine pod assembly for a nicotine e-vaping device may include a pod body and a connector module. The pod body has an upstream end and a downstream end and is configured to hold a nicotine pre-vapor formulation. The upstream end of the pod body defines a cavity. The connector module is configured to be seated within the cavity of the pod body. The connector module may include an external face and a side face. The external face of the connector module includes at least one electrical contact and defines a pod inlet. The side face of the connector module defines at least one module inlet. The side face of the connector module faces a sidewall of the cavity in the pod body when the connector module is seated within the cavity.

1 . A nicotine pod assembly for a nicotine e-vaping device, comprising:
 a pod body configured to hold a nicotine pre-vapor formulation, the pod body having an upstream end and a downstream end, the upstream end defining a cavity; and   a connector module configured to be seated within the cavity of the pod body, the connector module including an external face and a side face, the external face including at least one electrical contact and defining at least part of a pod inlet, the side face defining a first module inlet.
