Abstract
Disclosed are a multi-component filter for a smoking article and the smoking article. The multi-component filter comprises: a mouth end segment (12); and a flavour release segment (14) upstream of the mouth end segment (12). The flavour release segment (14) comprises non-tobacco plant leaves and glycerol triacetate. The multi-component filter (4) preferably further comprises a rod end segment (32) comprising filtration material upstream of the flavour release segment. Preferably, one or both of the mouth end segment (12) and the rod end segment (32) comprises at least one liquid flavourant. The rod end segment (32) may include a sorbent. The smoking article comprises a coated smokable material strip (2) and the multi-component filter (4). The multi-component filter is connected to the mokable material strip (2) through tipping paper (6).
Description
This divisional application is 200880100773.X based on application number, and the applying date is on August 14th, 2008, and denomination of invention is the divisional application of the Chinese patent application of " multi-component filter for smoking article ".The National Phase in China of this Chinese patent application to be international application no be international application of PCT/IB2008/002887.
Technical field
The present invention relates to the multi-component filter for smoking article, and relate to the smoking article comprising such multi-component filter.
Background technology
Cigarette with filter tip generally include by cigarette paper around tobacco rod and to aim at end-to-end relation with the tobacco rod of parcel and be connected to the Cylindrical filter mouth of described tobacco rod by tipping paper.The passage of circumference punch format is arranged on along certain position filter-tip usually, to be mixed with surrounding air by the main flume produced in the tobacco rod combustion process of parcel.
In traditional cigarette with filter tip, filter tip generally includes the cellulose acetate tow rod wrapped up with porous, shaped paper (plugwrap).But the also known cigarette with filter tip with multi-component filter, described multi-component filter comprises two or more filtering material part, for removing particulate and the gaseous component of main flume.In order to strengthen the fragrance of main flume, knownly provide the filter-tip cigarette with filter tip having and comprise spices.Especially, the spices comprising vegetable material form is proposed, such as, from the leaf of one or more fragrant plants, seed or root.In a known example, the cigarette with filter tip with multi-component filter is proposed, described multi-component filter has the flavor-releasing segment containing vegetable material mixture, and described vegetable material comprises the peppermint leaf of Radix Glycyrrhizae vegetable material, race and chopping.
Expect to provide a kind of multi-component filter for smoking article, it in use provides the fragrance of improvement to strengthen, especially, its main flume by consumer by filter tip from can smoking material bar aspirate time, provide improvement to main flume release peppermint and the situation of menthol flavor.And expect to provide a kind of multi-component filter for smoking article, it comprises and makes the minimized flavor-releasing segment of loss of aroma in storing process.
Summary of the invention
The invention provides a kind of multi-component filter for smoking article, described multi-component filter comprises: mouth end portion; With the flavor-releasing segment being positioned at described mouth end portion upstream, wherein, described flavor-releasing segment comprises non-tobacco herbaceous plant leaf and the glyceryl triacetate of fragrance.
Preferably, the non-tobacco herbaceous plant leaf of described fragrance comprises peppermint leaf.
Preferably, described flavor-releasing segment comprises cellulose acetate tow rod, and the non-tobacco herbaceous plant leaf of described fragrance is distributed in described cellulose acetate tow rod.
Preferably, the amount of the glyceryl triacetate in described flavor-releasing segment is up to 5% of cellulose acetate tow weight.
Preferably, described multi-component filter also comprises the second flavor-releasing segment between described mouth end portion and described flavor-releasing segment.
Preferably, wherein, described mouth end portion comprises at least one liquid spice.
Present invention also offers a kind of smoking article, described smoking article comprises: wrapped can smoking material bar; With above-mentioned multi-component filter, described multi-component filter can smoking material bar described in tipping paper is connected to.
Preferably, the mouth end of described multi-component filter is divided into hollow tube or recess.
