  • PVA Polylactic Acid
  • the inner wrapper 201 is preferably below 10 CU, thereby making the inner wrapper 201 substantially air impermeable.
  • the inner wrapper 201 is wrapped around by an outer wrapper 203 which is preferably made of air-permeable material.
  • the outer wrapper 203 has non-corrugated surface such that when it is wrapped around the inner wrapper 201 with sinusoidal waveform pattern, air channels 204 are formed between them.
  • a user draws air at the mouthpiece end 103a while the aerosol generating source 104 is heated. Heat generated aerosol is sucked from the aerosol generating section 102 through an intermediate channel formed by the paper tube 105 and enters into the core
  • the aerosol is filtered by being in contact with the filtration material present in the core 202.
  • the outer wrapper 203 is air permeable, cooling air is drawn from outside into the channels 204. Aerosol passing through the core 202 of the inner wrapper 201 is however not mixed with the cooling air as the inner wrapper 201 is air impermeable. The cooling air in the channels 204 however enters the user’s mouth where it is mixed with the aerosol and cools it down. The user is therefore provided with the aerosol at a comfortable temperature for inhalation.
  • the intensity of the flavor or the substance in the aerosol is not reduced which further enhances the user experience.
  • the inner wrapper 201 is wrapped around the filtration material filled in the core 202 of the filter component 106.
  • the filtration material could be a tow or nonwoven fabric of cellulose acetate, polypropylene or other fibrous materials for filtering any unwanted compounds in the aerosol.
  • the filtration material is used to remove particulate components and gaseous vapor components of substance such as tobacco contained in the aerosol. If the aerosol simply contains a flavor, no filtration may be needed and the core could therefore be hollow.
  • the outer wrapper 203 is wrapped around the inner wrapper 201 to provide rigidity and as well as comfort to the user.
  • the outer wrapper 203 may be made of paper or air- permeable material which allows the outside air to penetrate inside the channels 204 formed between the inner wrapper 201 and the outer wrapper 203.
  • the outer wrapper 203 may also be perforated to allow proper air intake into the air channels 204.
  • the channels 204 are formed by the virtue of sinusoidal waveform pattern in the inner wrapper 201 and aid in cooling the aerosol passing through the filter component 106. As described above, the air in the channels cannot penetrate through the inner wrapper 201 and therefore the aerosol is not mixed with the outside air in the filter component 106.
  • the channels 204 are formed circumferentially at one or both ends of the filter component 106 and longitudinally along sinusoidal corrugations formed at least partially along the length of the filter component 106.
  • the channels 204 formed in this way in the inner wrapper 201 provide enhanced cooling effect as compared to the existing filters.
  • Fig. 3A shows the filter component 106 according to one aspect of the invention.
  • the sinusoidal waveform pattern in the inner wrapper 201 extends longitudinally through along a sinuous air flow path throughout the inner wrapper from the mouth end 103a to the non-mouth end 103b.
  • the aerosol travels through the wavy path of the filter component 106, its speed of travel is lowered and the path also creates the pressure drop. This therefore cools down the aerosol before it reaches the mouth end 103a.
  • Fig. 3B shows the filter component 106 according to another aspect of the invention.
  • the sinusoidal waveform pattern in the inner wrapper 201 extends longitudinally along a sinuous path from the mouth end 103a to a certain point in the inner wrapper 201 but not up to the non-mouth end 103b.
  • the waveform pattern extends up to midway into the inner wrapper 201.
  • the rest of the inner wrapper 201 is not embossed and could simply have a plain surface.
  • a mainstream smoke coming from the aerosol generating section 102 attached at the non-mouth end 103b of the filter component 106 will only go through the core 202 of filtration material and not in the channels 204 formed in the inner wrapper 201.
  • the air channels 204 will act as a cooling barrier to the hot smoke circulating in the core 202 towards the outside of the filter component 106 where the user’s lips touch the surface of the outer wrapper 203. Furthermore, where ventilation holes are provided in the outer wrapper 203, in fluid communication with the channels 204, fresh air is drawn into the channels 204 towards the mouth end 103a. This air is then drawn into the user’s mouth together with the aerosol passing through the core 202 offering a cooling sensation in the user’s mouth, thereby creating a pleasant vaping experience.
  • the length of the filter component 106 is about 15 mm, circumference is 21.7 mm, and the number of channels formed is in the range of 5 to 10.

  • the tube shaped filter component 401 may be included in the article 100 to provide an additional extension to the filter.
  • the tube-shaped filter component 401 may extend the path of the aerosol in reaching the user’s mouth. This could provide further cooling effect.
  • the tube-shaped filter component 401 is provided at the mouth end 103a adjacent the paper tube 105.
  • the filter component 106 with the sinusoidal waveform pattern is sandwiched between the paper tube 105 and the aerosol source 104.
  • the aerosol is first cooled down in the filter component 106 as soon as it escapes the aerosol source 104.
  • the cooled down aerosol then travels through the paper tube 105 and the tube-shaped filter component 401 , where it may get cooled a bit further before reaching the user’s mouth.
  • the tube-shaped filter component 401 is disposed away from the mouth end 103a and is sandwiched between the filter component 106 and the paper tube 105.
  • the filter component 106 is disposed at the mouth end 103a.
  • the aerosol may not be cooled down considerably when passing through the paper tube 105 and the tube-shaped filter component 401.
  • the aerosol cools down to a comfortable temperature due to the presence of the air channels 204 before reaching the user.
  • the filter component 106 has a layer of the inner wrapper 201 as well the outer wrapper 203, the temperature at the tip of the device 100 would also be lower.
