Definitions
- Embodiments of this application relate to the field of heat-not-burn cigarette device technologies, and in particular, to a vapor generation device, a heater for a vapor generation device, and a manufacturing method.
- Tobacco products (such as cigarettes, cigars, and the like) burn tobacco during use to produce tobacco smoke. Attempts are made to replace these tobacco-burning products by making products that release compounds without burning.
- Patent No. 202010054217.6 proposes encapsulation of a heater with a spiral heating wire in a metal outer sleeve tube to heat a tobacco product to generate an aerosol.
- insulation between the spiral heating wire and the metal outer sleeve tube is usually implemented by filling an inorganic insulating adhesive or filling an inorganic powder material in the metal outer sleeve tube.
- a large number of pores affect transfer of heat between the heating wire and the outer sleeve tube.
- An embodiment of this application provides a vapor generation device, configured to heat an aerosol-forming article to generate an aerosol, and including:
- the shell includes a metal or an alloy.
- a melting point of the precursor material forming the insulator ranges from 400°C to 1500°C.
- the melting point of the precursor material is lower than a melting point of the shell.
- the insulator includes glaze or glass or silicon dioxide.
- the resistor heating element is configured into a form of a spiral coil extending in the axial direction of the hollow; and a cross section of a wire material of the spiral coil is configured into a flat shape.
- the cross section of the wire material of the spiral coil is configured with a length extending in an axial direction of the spiral coil being greater than a length extending in a radial direction.
- the insulator is configured to keep the resistor heating element in the hollow.
- the resistor heating element is wrapped in the insulator.
- the resistor heating element has a metal oxide layer formed through surface oxidation.
