Definitions
- the present disclosure relates to the technical field of aerosol generating products, and in particular, to an aerosol generating product with flavoring in supporting section.
- the existing aerosol generating products mainly include the smoking core-material section, the supporting section, the cooling section and the filter-rod section, wherein, the supporting section not only supports the smoking products, but also gathers smoke and assists the cooling section to cool the smoke.
- the tube wall of the supporting section as well as the forming paper and the tipping paper wrapping the tube wall are perforated to form an air vent by online laser drilling in the prior art, so that external air enters the supporting section and mixes with smoke, thereby increasing smoke amount and effectively reducing smoke temperature, however, such cooling effect on smoke and mixing effect of air and smoke are still insufficient, the reasons are as follows: 1.
- the radial support of the tube wall of the supporting section is insufficient, and the tube wall collapses to the center of the tube cavity after being subjected to external force, resulting in blockage of airflow channel for circulating air and smoke, leading to insufficient smoke volume; 2. as the contact area between the smoke and the tube wall of the supporting section is limited, effective cooling cannot be achieved; 3. due to short stay of smoke and air in the supporting section, as well as the smoke and air entering the cooling section through direct and quick passing through the supporting section, full mixing cannot be achieved; 4. as the smoke directly contacts the tube wall of the supporting section, and the smoke passing through the supporting section has not been effectively cooled, the smoke temperature is high and the tube wall is too hot to hold in hand.
- the cooling materials in the cooling section are mainly improved or the amount of cooling materials is directly increased, however, as most of the cooling materials are phase-change materials, after a few suctions, the phase-change materials may collapse and block the airflow channel, thus greatly increasing suction resistance, which affects smoking experience.
- the existing aerosol generating products are generally flavored by tobacco materials, filters and cigarette paper, the flavor loading process is difficult, inefficient with unstable flavor release.
- flavored beads are usually placed into the filter, and consumers break the beads manually before smoking, to release its internal flavoring substances, which can flavor aerosols during smoking; however, the problem are that, since beads have been completely crushed to release flavoring substances before smoking, resulting in strong flavor in the early stage of smoking, which is significantly weakened later with almost no flavoring effect in the end.
- the disadvantages of flavor loading through tobacco materials or cigarette paper are that, due to strong volatility of many flavors, characteristic aromas are easily lost after users open the package, resulting in poor aroma quality of the last cigarettes of each package.
- the present disclosure is proposed to solve the problems above.
- the present disclosure uses the method of preposing beads, and automatically adding flavors when using aerosol generating products to improve flavoring efficiency and stability of flavor release. Meanwhile, the flavoring channel of the supporting section 2 of the present disclosure adds flavor, and the permeable hollow section 3 introduces air, which can reduce suction resistance, improve comfort and further ensure the smoke volume and suitable smoke temperature.

- the anti-seepage cigarette paper 12 has an anti-seepage layer with one side close to the smoking core material; the forming paper 5 has an anti-seepage layer with one side close to the supporting section 2;
- the anti-seepage layer includes a water-proof layer and / or an oil-proof layer; it is coated on the inner wall of the cigarette paper tube by spraying; the water-proof layer uses alkyl ketene dimer (AKD), cationic rosin gum, non-iron aluminum sulfate mix or paraffin material; the anti-oil layer uses fluorocarbon organic matter, modified starch, AKD and paraffin mixture, AKD and modified starch mixture material;
- the anti-seepage layer is selected from an aluminum foil layer, which is added to the inner wall of the cigarette paper tube by paste; the aluminum foil layer can play the role of water-proof and / or oil-proof while preserving heat, so that the smoking material in the inner wall of the cigarette is evenly heated.
- the supporting section 2 includes a first material and a second material, wherein, the flavoring channel 21 is limited by the first material, the second material or combination of the first material and the second material, and the hollow airflow channel 22 is limited by the first material.
- the first material and the second material are selected from acetate fiber, polyethylene, paper, polyethylene, polypropylene, polyvinyl chloride, polylactic acid and non-woven fabrics.
- the first material and the second material can be selected from the above materials, but not the same.
- the hollow airflow channel 22 is located at the center of the filter rod, and its cross-sectional area is 1/5-1/2 that of the filter rod, the number of the hollow airflow channel 22 is one, and the shape can be but not limited to circular, square, triangular or star.
- the flavoring channel 21 is dispersed on the outside of the hollow airflow channel 22, and there is a plurality of the flavoring channels, the total cross-sectional area of the flavoring channel 21 is 1/4-3/5 that of the filter tip, the flavoring channel 21 can be selected from but not limited to circular, square, triangle, arc, trapezoid, "U" shape or "V" shape.
- the permeable hollow section 3 is made of paper, silica gel, acetate fiber tow, polylactic acid, and non-woven fabric, the wall thickness of the permeable hollow section 3 is 0.8-2.5mm; the wall thickness of the supporting section 2 is 0. 1-2.0mm, the wall thickness of the supporting section 2 is the radial distance from the outer surface of the supporting section to the inner surface of the airflow channel 22, that is, the wall thickness includes radial thickness of the flavoring channel 21, when the cross section of the airflow channel 22 is of a non-circular structure such as a triangle, wall thickness of the above supporting section 2 refers to the shortest radial distance from the outer surface of the supporting section to the inner surface of the airflow channel 22.
- the total length of the aerosol generating product is 45-90mm, and the diameter of the aerosol generating product is 5.0-7.7mm, the length of the filter rod composed of the supporting section 2, the permeable hollow section 3 and the filtering section 4 is 30-60mm, and the length of the supporting section 2 is 10-30 mm, the length of the permeable hollow section 3 is 10-30mm, and the length of the filtering section 4 is 5-15 mm.
- the filtering section 4 is a solid acetate fiber tow.
- the aerosol generating product of the present disclosure is suitable for circumferential and central aerosol generating product smoking set.
- the reasons and advantages that the flavoring capsule 11 is placed at the end of the supporting section 2 in the downstream of the smoking core-material section 1 in the present disclosure, which is adjacent to the end of the smoking core-material section 1, rather than inside the smoking core-material are as follows: when consumers are smoking, the temperature of the core-material section is the highest, which is 120 °C, if the flavoring capsule 11 is placed in the core-material section and wrapped by the smoking material, the flavoring capsule 11 may be subjected to continuous high temperature during smoking, the capsule wall of the flavoring capsule 11 ruptures rapidly, and flavors and fragrances inside quickly volatilize, leading to strong feeling at first few suctions and almost no feeling at the latter suctions.
- the flavoring capsule 11 is placed at the end of the supporting section 2 in the downstream of the smoking core-material section 1, which is adjacent to the end of the smoking core-material section 1 in the present disclosure, which is inside the flavoring channel of the supporting section 2, as the end of the supporting section 2 is close to the smoking core-material section 1, the smoke generated by the smoking core-material section 1 still has a high temperature when it enters the hollow airflow channel, which can make the flavoring capsule 11 rupture.
- the permeable hollow section 3 in the downstream of the supporting section is perforated in the present disclosure, so that an air vent is formed to introduce air, rather than perforating on the wall of the supporting section 2 as in the prior art, the reasons and effects are as follows: without perforating in the supporting section 2 to introduce air can first ensure that the flavoring capsule 11 inside the supporting section 2 can rupture and add flavor with enough smoke temperature, after the smoke has been initially cooled and flavored, air is further introduced from the permeable hollow section 3, which can further cool and gather smoke. 3.
- the smoking core-material section 1 of the present disclosure is wrapped by anti-seepage cigarette paper 12, moisture in the smoking material seeps to the outside of the cigarette paper tube during storage of cigarettes and produces yellow spots; thus, it is necessary to add a water-proof layer to the inner wall of the cigarette paper tube filled with smoking materials.
- the water-proof layer can prevent moisture in the smoking material from seeping to the outside of the cigarette paper tube.
- smoking agents and other substances are added to the smoking material, during long-term placement, smoking agents in the smoking materials may carry flavors and fragrances to seep to the outside of the paper tube, resulting in yellow spots and affecting appearances of paper tubes, as smoking agents are oily, it is necessary to add an oil-proof layer to the inner wall of the cigarette paper tube filled with smoking materials.
- the oil-proof layer can prevent smoke agents in the smoking material from carrying flavors and fragrances to the outer wall of the paper tube and occurrence of yellow spots.
- a flavoring capsule 11 is placed at the end of the supporting section 2 in the downstream of the smoking core-material section 1 in the present disclosure, which is adjacent to the end of the smoking core material section 1, thus, the forming paper 5 has an anti-seepage layer on one side that is close to the supporting section 2, during smoking, after the capsule wall ruptures, fragrances inside the flavoring capsule 11 may also penetrate into the wall of the supporting section 2, while the anti-seepage layer can prevent flavors and fragrances from seeping to the forming paper.

Description
- The present disclosure relates to the technical field of aerosol generating products, and in particular, to an aerosol generating product with flavoring in supporting section.
- With increasing attention of consumers to health and increasing demand for personalized experiences of cigarette products, the tobacco industry has continuously responded to upgrading of consumers' needs, various smoking products with tar reduction have been developed so as to bring less harm to consumers. Among which, because of different heating methods compared with traditional cigarette products, heat-not-burn cigarettes can provide a healthier smoking experience while meeting consumers' sensory needs for cigarette products.
- The existing aerosol generating products mainly include the smoking core-material section, the supporting section, the cooling section and the filter-rod section, wherein, the supporting section not only supports the smoking products, but also gathers smoke and assists the cooling section to cool the smoke. The tube wall of the supporting section as well as the forming paper and the tipping paper wrapping the tube wall are perforated to form an air vent by online laser drilling in the prior art, so that external air enters the supporting section and mixes with smoke, thereby increasing smoke amount and effectively reducing smoke temperature, however, such cooling effect on smoke and mixing effect of air and smoke are still insufficient, the reasons are as follows: 1. the radial support of the tube wall of the supporting section is insufficient, and the tube wall collapses to the center of the tube cavity after being subjected to external force, resulting in blockage of airflow channel for circulating air and smoke, leading to insufficient smoke volume; 2. as the contact area between the smoke and the tube wall of the supporting section is limited, effective cooling cannot be achieved; 3. due to short stay of smoke and air in the supporting section, as well as the smoke and air entering the cooling section through direct and quick passing through the supporting section, full mixing cannot be achieved; 4. as the smoke directly contacts the tube wall of the supporting section, and the smoke passing through the supporting section has not been effectively cooled, the smoke temperature is high and the tube wall is too hot to hold in hand.
- Thus, in order to further realize cooling of smoke, the cooling materials in the cooling section are mainly improved or the amount of cooling materials is directly increased, however, as most of the cooling materials are phase-change materials, after a few suctions, the phase-change materials may collapse and block the airflow channel, thus greatly increasing suction resistance, which affects smoking experience.
- Besides, the existing aerosol generating products are generally flavored by tobacco materials, filters and cigarette paper, the flavor loading process is difficult, inefficient with unstable flavor release.
- In the existing aerosol generating products, flavored beads are usually placed into the filter, and consumers break the beads manually before smoking, to release its internal flavoring substances, which can flavor aerosols during smoking; however, the problem are that, since beads have been completely crushed to release flavoring substances before smoking, resulting in strong flavor in the early stage of smoking, which is significantly weakened later with almost no flavoring effect in the end. However, the disadvantages of flavor loading through tobacco materials or cigarette paper are that, due to strong volatility of many flavors, characteristic aromas are easily lost after users open the package, resulting in poor aroma quality of the last cigarettes of each package.

filtering section 4 is a solid acetate fiber tow. - The aerosol generating product of the present disclosure is suitable for circumferential and central aerosol generating product smoking set.
- The present disclosure has the following beneficial effects compared with the prior art:
- 1. The supporting
section 2 of the present disclosure is provided with ahollow airflow channel 22 and a plurality offlavoring channels 21; the plurality offlavoring channels 21 surround the outer side of thehollow airflow channel 22, and one end of theflavoring channels 21 that is closed to the smoking core-material section 1 is closed, and the other end that is close to the permeablehollow section 3 is open, aflavoring capsule 11 is provided within theflavoring channel 21. That is, the airflow channel of supportingsection 2 is divided into two types: one is the hollow airflow channel in the center for aerosol circulation, the other is a flavoring channel on the periphery, one end of the channel that is close to the smoking core-material section 1 is plugged, that is, the aerosol generated by heating of the smoking core-material section 1 cannot enter the flavoring channel. When hot aerosol flows through thehollow airflow channel 22, beads in the flavoringchannel 21 rupture by heat, releasing aroma substances, and flowing along the flavoring channel to the permeablehollow section 3. The advantages of such structure are as follows:- (1) Beads do not directly contact with hot aerosols, but transfer heat through the wall of the flavoring channel, so as to ensure that beads may not explode by strong heat and release all flavors in an instant, but slowly release flavor by heat;
- (2) As there is no hot smoke circulation in the flavoring
channel 21, the flavoringchannel 21 forms an air-insulation layer to prevent the supporting section wall from directly contacting the smoke and causing external surface temperature to be too high; - (3) Beads in the flavoring
channel 21 rupture by heat, releasing aroma substances and flowing along the flavoring channel to the permeablehollow section 3, as anair vent 31 is provided on the permeablehollow section 3 that axially runs through the wall of the permeablehollow section 3, external air enters the permeable hollow section through the air vent, external air first contacts with the surrounding fragrance vapor to condense it into small droplets, and contacts with the central mainstream smoke, the small fragrance droplets can be used as condensation nucleation points to promote condensation of smoke droplets around the fragrance droplets, forming a core-shell structure in which the smoke droplets wrap the fragrance droplets, rather than a disordered mixing of fragrance droplets and smoke droplets, resulting in long and lasting feeling of users.
- 2. The
flavoring capsule 11 is placed at the end of the supportingsection 2 in the downstream of the smoking core-material section 1, which is adjacent to the end of the smoking core-material section 1 for the first time in the present disclosure, the capsule wall of theflavoring capsule 11 is selected from materials that can rupture at an ambient temperature of 150-200°C, so that aroma substances inside theflavoring capsule 11 may not release due to protection of the capsule wall when suction is not performed, and the flavoring capsule is placed in the flavoringchannel 21 of the supportingsection 2, due to the protection of the wall of the supportingsection 2 and the forming paper 5, loss of aroma substance during long-term placement can be further avoided. Besides, theflavoring capsule 11 of the present disclosure is different from the existing beads, which requires consumers to pinch to release flavoring substances inside, instead, the material that can rupture at an ambient temperature of 80-200°C is selected as the capsule wall, when consumers are smoking, temperature of the core-material section is the highest, which is 120°C, when hot aerosol flows through thehollow airflow channel 22, beads in the flavoringchannel 21 rupture by heat, releasing aroma substances and flowing along the flavoring channel to the permeablehollow section 3. - The advantages of rupture of flavoring capsules by heating are as follows: ①By taking advantage of the
flavoring capsule 11 is provided at the end of the supportingsection 2, which is adjacent to the end of the smoking core-material section 1, if it is in other sections, the temperature is not high enough for beads to rupture; ②beads are mostly added to the acetate filter section in the prior art, as resilience of the wall of the supporting section is far less than that of acetate, acetate may rebound after pinching beads, there is almost no deformation; if beads rupture by pinching wall of the supporting section, the supporting section may deform, so that the structure of the supporting section and the airflow channel may be changed, affecting smoking effect and bringing bad experiences, while beads rupturing by heat can perfectly solve such problem; (3)The capsule wall offlavoring capsule 11 can further reduce smoke temperature. - Further, the reasons and advantages that the
flavoring capsule 11 is placed at the end of the supportingsection 2 in the downstream of the smoking core-material section 1 in the present disclosure, which is adjacent to the end of the smoking core-material section 1, rather than inside the smoking core-material are as follows: when consumers are smoking, the temperature of the core-material section is the highest, which is 120 °C, if theflavoring capsule 11 is placed in the core-material section and wrapped by the smoking material, theflavoring capsule 11 may be subjected to continuous high temperature during smoking, the capsule wall of the flavoringcapsule 11 ruptures rapidly, and flavors and fragrances inside quickly volatilize, leading to strong feeling at first few suctions and almost no feeling at the latter suctions. Moreover, due to high temperature of theflavoring capsule 11, although the capsule wall is indeed more likely to rupture, there are flavors and fragrances with low volatilization temperature inside theflavoring capsule 11, such as menthol, orange oil, rose essential oil, etc., leading to a dilemma that the capsule wall needs a certain temperature to rupture, and flavors in the capsule wall with low volatilization temperature may volatilize instantaneously when the temperature is too high. - The
flavoring capsule 11 is placed at the end of the supportingsection 2 in the downstream of the smoking core-material section 1, which is adjacent to the end of the smoking core-material section 1 in the present disclosure, which is inside the flavoring channel of the supportingsection 2, as the end of the supportingsection 2 is close to the smoking core-material section 1, the smoke generated by the smoking core-material section 1 still has a high temperature when it enters the hollow airflow channel, which can make theflavoring capsule 11 rupture. However, due to theflavoring capsule 11 is in the flavoring channel of the supportingsection 2, beads do not directly contact with hot aerosol, but transfer heat through the flavoring channel wall, to ensure that beads do not burst and release all fragrances in an instant by strong heat, but slowly release fragrances by slow heating, so as to achieve the effect of stable and sustained release of aroma. - With reference to the structure of the supporting section, the permeable
hollow section 3 in the downstream of the supporting section is perforated in the present disclosure, so that an air vent is formed to introduce air, rather than perforating on the wall of the supportingsection 2 as in the prior art, the reasons and effects are as follows: without perforating in the supportingsection 2 to introduce air can first ensure that theflavoring capsule 11 inside the supportingsection 2 can rupture and add flavor with enough smoke temperature, after the smoke has been initially cooled and flavored, air is further introduced from the permeablehollow section 3, which can further cool and gather smoke.
3. The smoking core-material section 1 of the present disclosure is wrapped byanti-seepage cigarette paper 12, moisture in the smoking material seeps to the outside of the cigarette paper tube during storage of cigarettes and produces yellow spots; thus, it is necessary to add a water-proof layer to the inner wall of the cigarette paper tube filled with smoking materials. The water-proof layer can prevent moisture in the smoking material from seeping to the outside of the cigarette paper tube. - Similarly, smoking agents and other substances are added to the smoking material, during long-term placement, smoking agents in the smoking materials may carry flavors and fragrances to seep to the outside of the paper tube, resulting in yellow spots and affecting appearances of paper tubes, as smoking agents are oily, it is necessary to add an oil-proof layer to the inner wall of the cigarette paper tube filled with smoking materials. The oil-proof layer can prevent smoke agents in the smoking material from carrying flavors and fragrances to the outer wall of the paper tube and occurrence of yellow spots.
- More importantly, a
flavoring capsule 11 is placed at the end of the supportingsection 2 in the downstream of the smoking core-material section 1 in the present disclosure, which is adjacent to the end of the smokingcore material section 1, thus, the forming paper 5 has an anti-seepage layer on one side that is close to the supportingsection 2, during smoking, after the capsule wall ruptures, fragrances inside theflavoring capsule 11 may also penetrate into the wall of the supportingsection 2, while the anti-seepage layer can prevent flavors and fragrances from seeping to the forming paper. - 4. The supporting
section 2 of the present disclosure is provided with aflavoring channel 21 and apermeable airflow channel 22, wherein theflavoring channel 21 is used for flavoring and thepermeable airflow channel 22 is used for gathering smoke. Aflavoring capsule 11 is provided in part of theflavoring channel 21, and theflavoring capsule 11 is close to one side of the smoking core-material section 1, so as to control adding amount of theflavoring capsule 11. Thepermeable airflow channel 22 can be used to gather smoke, reduce adsorption of smoke and increase smoke amount. Moreover, theflavoring channel 21 is dispersed outside thepermeable airflow channel 22, so that flavoring is uniform. - 5. The aerosol generating product of the present disclosure also includes a supporting
section 2 with a hollow structure, wherein, the supporting section can not only support the aerosol generating product, more importantly, it can gather smoke and reduce smoke temperature, to solve the problem of high temperature entering mouths of smokers. - 6. An
air vent 31 is provided on the permeablehollow section 3 of the present disclosure, when theair vent 31 of the present disclosure is consistent with shape and size of the holes drilled on the supporting section in the prior art, theair vent 31 is closer to smokers' mouths, and suction at theair vent 31 is significantly greater than that at the hole drilled on the supporting section in the prior art, thus, theair vent 31 of the present disclosure has better ventilation effect with a larger amount of ambient air introduced, so as to reduce smoke temperature. Meanwhile, the supportingsection 2 of the present disclosure is provided with a cavity, the permeablehollow section 3 is also provided with a cavity, the air introduced can be better mixed with smoke to further reduce smoke temperature. The cooling section rather than the supporting section is perforated in the present disclosure, further using the change of suction to increase air intake and reduce smoke temperature. -

sample 1 andsample 2 show different degrees of increase in fragrance, irritant improvement, taste and other aspects compared with aerosol generating products in the prior art; besides, the two samples generate sufficient smoke amount to meet smokers' needs during heating. - Besides, the smoke temperature of
sample 1 entering smokers' mouth is 39.2°C, while that ofsample 2 is 38.9°C, the reason is as follows: the permeablehollow section 3 of the present disclosure is provided with anair vent 31, in case the shape and size of theair vent 31 in the present disclosure are the same as those of the holes drilled on the supporting section in the prior art, theair vent 31 in the present disclosure is closer to smokers' mouths, suction at theair vent 31 is significantly greater than that at the holes drilled on the supporting section in the prior art, thus, ventilation effect of theair vent 31 is better and the amount of ambient air introduced is larger, so as to reduce smoke temperature. Meanwhile, the supportingsection 2 of the present disclosure is provided with a cavity, and the permeablehollow section 3 is also provided with a cavity, so that the air introduced can be better mixed with smoke to further reduce smoke temperature. - Besides, as there is no circulation of hot smoke in the
flavoring channel 21, theflavoring channel 21 forms an air-insulation layer, sensory evaluators obviously feel that, compared with the existing aerosol generating products, the outer surface temperature of the supporting section of the present disclosure is lower, there is no such problem of scalding hands during smoking. Meanwhile, whether it is at the early, middle or late stage of smoking, fragrance evaluation scores given by sensory evaluators are basically the same, there is no such problem of strong feeling in the early stage and weak in the later stage.
