Description
(1)フィルターの通気抵抗を下げること、
(2)たばこロッドの通気抵抗を下げること、および
(3)チップペーパーの貫通孔からの空気流入量(Qf)を増やしてシガレット先端からの空気流入量(Qt)を減らすこと
が一般に行われている。フィルターの通気抵抗は、フィルター製造機の製造条件を変更して、フィルターロッドへのアセテートトウの充填量を減らすことにより低下させることができるが、アセテートトウをフィルターロッドに均一に充填する場合、アセテートトウの充填量の低減には限界がある。とりわけ、直径6.0mm以下の細いシガレットにおいて、その細さに起因する通気抵抗の上昇を、アセテートトウの充填量の低減のみで抑えることは困難である。同様に、たばこロッドへのたばこ充填材の充填量を減らすことにより通気抵抗を低減することには限界がある。そこで、シガレット通気抵抗を下げるために、チップペーパーの貫通孔からの空気流入量(Qf)を増やしてシガレット先端からの空気流入量(Qt)を減らすことが行われているが、この場合、たばこ刻みの燃焼に供給される空気の量が減り、燃焼により生成するタールの量が減少する。
たばこ充填材および該たばこ充填材の周囲を巻装するたばこ巻紙を含むたばこロッドと、フィルター部材および該フィルター部材の周囲を一体的に巻装する巻取紙を含むフィルターと、該たばこロッドと該フィルターとを接続するように該たばこロッドと該フィルター上に接着されたチップペーパーとを備え、吸煙時に空気を流入させるための貫通孔が、該フィルター部のチップペーパーおよび該巻取紙を貫通する形で形成されたシガレットであって、
前記シガレットが、3.0〜6.0mmの直径を有し、
前記フィルター部材が、8.0g/9000mより大きい単繊度および15000g/9000mより小さい総繊度を有するアセテートトウを含み、
前記フィルターが、35mg以上の香味放出材を含有する
ことを特徴とするシガレットが提供される。

Claims (3)
- たばこ充填材および該たばこ充填材の周囲を巻装するたばこ巻紙を含むたばこロッドと、フィルター部材および該フィルター部材の周囲を一体的に巻装する巻取紙を含むフィルターと、該たばこロッドと該フィルターとを接続するように該たばこロッドと該フィルター上に接着されたチップペーパーとを備え、吸煙時に空気を流入させるための貫通孔が、該フィルター部のチップペーパーおよび該巻取紙を貫通する形で形成されたシガレットであって、
前記シガレットが、3.0〜6.0mmの直径を有し、
前記フィルター部材が、10g/9000m〜13g/9000mの単繊度および11000g/9000m〜13000g/9000mの総繊度を有するアセテートトウを含み、
前記フィルターが、35mg以上の香味放出材を含有し、
前記シガレットは、主流煙中のタール値が8mg以上であり、シガレットの通気抵抗が150mmH 2 O以下である
ことを特徴とするシガレット。 - 前記フィルターが、複数のフィルターセグメントを含むマルチセグメントフィルターであり、フィルターセグメントの少なくとも一つが、10g/9000m〜13g/9000mの単繊度および11000g/9000m〜13000g/9000mの総繊度を有するアセテートトウを含むことを特徴とする請求項1に記載のシガレット。
- 前記フィルターが、たばこ充填材側に配置された第1のフィルターセグメントおよび吸口側に配置された第2のフィルターセグメントを含むデュアルセグメントフィルターであり、フィルターセグメントの少なくとも一つが、10g/9000m〜13g/9000mの単繊度および11000g/9000m〜13000g/9000mの総繊度を有するアセテートトウを含むことを特徴とする請求項1に記載のシガレット。
