Background technology
This area proposed tobacco wherein by heating on-fuel multiple smoking product.The object of this ' heating ' smoking product is the harmful smoke components of the known type that the burning of the tobacco be reduced by conventional cigarette and thermal degradation produce.In a kind of smoking product of heating of known type, produce aerosol by the heat trnasfer forming matrix from combustible heat source to aerosol.Aerosol forms matrix and can be positioned at around combustible heat source, combustible heat source or combustible heat source downstream.During smoking, volatile compound forms matrix release by the heat trnasfer from combustible heat source from aerosol and is entrained in and is drawn through the air of smoking product.Along with the cooling of discharged compound, compound condensation is to form the aerosol sucked by user.Usually, make air be inhaled in the smoking product of this known heating by the one or more gas channels arranged through combustible heat source, realize by forced convertion and conduction the heat trnasfer forming matrix from combustible heat source to aerosol.
Such as, WO-A2-2009/022232 discloses smoking product, it comprises combustible heat source, the aerosol in combustible heat source downstream forms matrix and around and directly the rear portion of contact combustible heat source and aerosol form the heat-conduction component of the adjacent front portion of matrix.
The heat generated between combustible heat source main combustion period is passed to aerosol and forms matrix by the heat-conduction component in the smoking product of WO-A2-2009/022232 by conducting.Tobacco is heated instead of in the smoking product that burns, aerosol forms the temperature realized in matrix and has remarkable impact to the ability generating sensuously acceptable aerosol wherein.The temperature that aerosol is formed matrix by usual expectation is maintained within a certain range, to optimize the aerosol delivery to user.In some cases, from around and the temperature that the radiation heat loss that directly contact combustible heat source and aerosol form the outer surface of the heat-conduction component of matrix can cause combustible heat source and aerosol to form matrix drops to outside required scope, affect the performance of smoking product thus.If the temperature that aerosol forms matrix is fallen too low, then such as it adversely can affect uniformity and the amount of the aerosol being delivered to user.
EP-A1-2550879 discloses the smoking product comprising multilayer pipe component 9, carbon heat sources 4 and smog Flavor release source 8 and holder part 14, described multilayer pipe component 9 comprises at least one metal level and a ply of paper, described carbon heat sources 4 is arranged in the end of pipe component 9 with the inner surface of at least part of directly close contact pipe component 9, described smog Flavor release source 8 is arranged in adjacent carbon heat sources 4 in pipe component 9, and described holder part 14 makes carbon heat sources 4 keep directly contacting described end and supports carbon heat sources 4 for described end.
In the embodiment shown in fig. 1, non-combustible packaging material 9 are formed by making three layers of composite sheet 16 be bonded to the outside of two-layer composite sheet 15.From the part formation holder part 14 of three layers of composite sheet 16 that two-layer composite sheet 15 is given prominence to.As shown in Figure 2, two-layer composite sheet 15 comprises inner aluminium lamination 17 and outside ply of paper 18, and three layers of composite sheet 16 comprise inner ply of paper 18, central aluminium lamination 17 and outside ply of paper 18.The innermost layer of non-combustible packing material 9 is aluminium laminations 17 of two-layer composite sheet 15, and the outermost layer of non-combustible packing material 8 is outside ply of papers 18 of three layers of composite sheet 16.
