Description

INDUSTRIAL APPLICABILITY The present invention is mounted in a chamber provided with an electrically controlled heating element of a heating type smoking element so as to be in contact with the heating element, and the smoke and aroma components of the aerosol generated by heating the heating element can be enjoyed. Regarding aromatic cartridges.

In recent years, as cigarette smoking and smoking cessation have become widespread in spaces where people gather, such as workplaces and restaurants, the number of smoking enthusiasts who smoke flame-burned cigarettes, such as cigarettes, has decreased. On the other hand, the number of smoking enthusiasts who use electronic cigarettes, which are heated smoking tools that suck smoke generated by heat transmitted by an electrically controlled heating element such as a heater, is rapidly increasing. The reason for this is that according to conventional flame smoking, smokers and non-smokers around them inhale harmful substances produced by thermal decomposition and combustion (600 ° C or higher) of tobacco materials and paper. According to electronic cigarettes, smokers inhale and smoke harmless glycerin and other smoke and aromas made from tobacco materials and aerosol formers at low temperatures (200 to 350 ° C) that do not lead to thermal decomposition and combustion of tobacco materials. This is because the effect on non-smokers around the area can be reduced.

There are roughly two types of such electronic cigarettes (Non-Patent Documents 1 and 2). One is a capsule-type electronic cigarette and a stick-type electronic cigarette that heat a capsule or stick containing tobacco leaves and suck smoke or the like. The other is a liquid electronic cigarette that absorbs the vapor generated by heating a scented or flavored liquid.

In particular, stick-type electronic cigarettes are highly similar to conventional cigarettes in terms of form, smoking method, taste, etc., and because the amount of toxic substances such as cigarettes sucked is small, many enthusiasts. Various developments have been carried out (for example, Patent Documents 1 to 3). Specifically, a stick (electronic cigarette) in which a mouthpiece is provided on an aerosol-forming body that is processed into a stick-like form like a cigarette with an aerosol former that generates an aerosol that becomes smoke together with a tobacco component, a fragrance, a binder, or the like. It is an electronic cigarette that smokes by attaching a cartridge) to a heated aerosol. The mechanism of smoking is that when the aerosol-forming body is attached and heated so as to come into contact with the heat source of the heating type smoking equipment, the aerosol-forming body releases volatile substances including the aerosol former, and at the same time, this volatile substance is released. , Smoker's suction sucks into the mouthpiece side of the other end together with air, and in this volatile transport process, the aerosol former volatiles cool and condense to form a smoky aerosol and other The volatiles give aroma to the smoker's mouth and nose, and as a result, the smoker can enjoy smoking (Patent Document 2). According to this mechanism, in the case of heated smoking such as stick-type electronic cigarette, the aerosol former such as glycerin or propylene glycol contained in the aerosol forming body can be volatilized at about 200 to 250 ° C., that is, tobacco leaf. You can smoke at a temperature at which the thermal decomposition of the cigarette begins. Therefore, compared to the case of flame-type smoking, which burns at least 600 ° C, which is necessary for burning, and more than 900 ° C when smoking, harmful substances that are said to be generated more as the temperature rises. The outbreak is suppressed and there is little adverse effect on health.

Unlike stick-type e-cigarettes, liquid-type e-cigarettes do not contain tobacco components, and beverages such as coffee, cola and red bull, desserts such as chocolate, vanilla and cream, and fruits such as orange, lemon and melon. , Mensole, mint, refreshing agents such as herbs, etc., is a new smoking tool that allows you to enjoy various tastes (Non-Patent Document 2). Specifically, it is an electronic cigarette that heats a liquid obtained by mixing a fragrance with propylene glycol and vegetable glycerin and sucks the evaporated volatile matter. It does not contain any harmful substances, does not generate tar or nicotine, and has the greatest feature of being able to enjoy a wide variety of flavors. In fact, a wide variety of liquids are on sale.

Furthermore, in recent years, attempts have been made to combine the characteristics of these two electronic cigarettes (Patent Document 4). As described above, since the aerosol-forming body processed into a heated stick of the conventional stick-type electronic cigarette contained a tobacco component, harmful substances were generated, and tar and nicotine were also generated, albeit in a small amount. Was there. Therefore, Patent Document 4 invents a stick-type electronic cigarette that does not contain a tobacco component, which has been a problem of stick-type electronic cigarettes. That is, instead of the tobacco component, a non-tobacco material that generates only aroma that has the effect of improving the mind and body, health and beauty by smoking is adopted, and an aerosol-forming body containing an aerosol former, a binder, etc. is used. It is a stick-type electronic cigarette.

However, in stick-type electronic cigarettes that use only such non-tobacco materials, it is not possible to use tobacco materials that contain a large amount of fibers in the aerosol-forming body, and in order to release various flavors, a wide variety of non-tobacco materials are used. I have a problem because I use tobacco material.

First, in the aerosol-forming body containing the tobacco material, when the non-tobacco material containing a large amount of fiber is used, although the fibers of the tobacco material maintain the lumpy state and prevent the tobacco material from falling off and fusing. In order to stably maintain the massive state of the heated aroma generating sheet or the heated aroma generating filling material (hereinafter referred to as "heated aroma generating base material"), a large amount of binder or the like that functions as a fiber is used. Will be used for. Therefore, as the amount of the binder increases, the density of the aroma generating base material to be heated increases, and the volatile components (hereinafter referred to as “gas”) from the inside of the aroma generating base material to be heated of the aerosol former and the non-tobacco material released by heating increase. The flow path (hereinafter referred to as "gas flow path") is closed, making it difficult to suck the smoke of the aerosol and the aroma component of the non-tobacco material (hereinafter referred to as the "suction component"), and as a result, the suction amount is reduced.

Further, since the aerosol former is glycerin, propylene glycol, etc., which are liquid at room temperature, the more the binder is, the more the aerosol former bleeds out from the heated aromatic base material over time, and the heated aromatic base materials are fused to each other. To do. Therefore, the gas flow path is closed, it becomes difficult to suck the suction component, and as a result, the suction amount decreases. Further, when such fusion occurs, it becomes difficult for the heating element to be inserted into the heated aroma generating base material, and the heating element may be damaged. Specifically, the base material for generating aroma to be heated sticks and hardens during transportation or storage at a warehouse or storefront, making it difficult for the heating element to penetrate, causing damage to the cartridge or damage to the heating element. There is.

On the contrary, if the amount of the binder added is reduced and the gas flow path is secured, the non-tobacco material is dropped off and dust is generated, and it is difficult to maintain the shape of the cartridge firmly, so that the cartridge is inserted into the heating element. Then it may be destroyed. In addition, these may be sucked into the oral cavity.

That is, since it is necessary to maintain the generation of aerosols that become smoke and the generation of aroma components released from non-tobacco materials, the solution should be solved by significantly changing the composition and compounding ratio constituting the base material for generating aroma to be heated. Is difficult. Therefore, it is considered that a solution means focusing on the structure of the mouthpiece, which has a great influence on the suction amount, the method for producing the base material for generating aroma to be heated, the filling state thereof, and the like is required.

As described above, the present invention does not use any tobacco component at all and uses only non-tobacco material, which causes a peculiar problem of reducing suction power, that is, in a heated aroma generating substrate and a heated aroma generating group. It is an object of the present invention to provide an aromatic cartridge that can solve the problem of a decrease in the suction amount of the suction component due to the blockage of the gas flow path between the materials, and does not cause the non-tobacco material or the like to fall off or generate dust.

Although the term "fragrance cartridge" is used here, it may be referred to as a "smoking cartridge" or an "electronic cigarette compatible cartridge".

As a source of fragrance, it is also applied to those using non-tobacco materials without tobacco components.

"Aroma" means "good scent" and includes scents that drift from the material itself (fragrance), scents that float in the space when heated (aroma), scents that float in the mouth when inhaled (flavor), etc. ..

"Smoking" generally means smoking cigarettes, but here it simply means "enjoying smoke," "tasting smoke," and "enjoying smoke," which is the source of smoke. Is not limited to tobacco, but also applies to those using non-tobacco materials. Further, the "smoke" here also includes "smoke-like" and "smoke-like" such as droplets dispersed in the air such as aerosol.

An "e-cigarette compatible cartridge" is also defined simply as a "(compatible) cartridge that can be used interchangeably with an e-cigarette cartridge containing a tobacco component, whether or not it contains a tobacco component."

More specifically, the electrically controlled heating element is attached so as to come into contact with the heating element of the heating type smoking device provided in the chamber, and the smoke and aroma components of the aerosol generated by heating the heating element can be enjoyed. In a columnar aerosol cartridge that can be used, at least a mouthpiece provided with a filter for filtering smoke and aroma components and at least a heated aerosol generator wrapped with a heated aerosol-generating substrate that comes into contact with a heating element are adjacent to each other. A mechanism that is wrapped with a cartridge exterior and has a function of improving the amount of gas suction on the mouthpiece and a function of catching fallen objects and dust such as non-tobacco materials, and suction of gas on the heated aerosol generator. It is an object of the present invention to provide an aromatic cartridge provided with a material having a structure that does not reduce the amount and does not cause falling off such as non-tobacco material or dust.

That is, the fragrance cartridge of the present invention comprises a heated fragrance generator wrapped with a heated fragrance generating base material that comes into contact with the heating element, and smoke and aroma components of an aerosol generated by heating from the heating element. A mouthpiece provided with a filter to be filtered, a cartridge outer body wrapping an outer periphery so as to connect the heated aerosol generator and the mouthpiece, and at least one of the heated aerosol generator and the mouthpiece. Has at least one of the smoke and the aroma component suction optimizing means and the gas generation sustaining material of the smoke and the aroma component.

Such suction optimizing means and gas generation maintenance material mean the following structures and materials, respectively. The suction optimizing means has a structure for improving the suction amount of the mouthpiece, and a structure for preventing and supplementing the generation of falling objects such as non-tobacco material and dust of the aroma generator to be heated. More specifically, a cavity for improving the suction amount by expanding the gas flow path provided in the filter constituting the mouthpiece, and a support for preventing the heated fragrance generator constituting the mouthpiece from moving to the mouthpiece side. A shape reinforcing member provided on the body to prevent a decrease in suction amount due to deformation, a heat insulating material provided on the mouthpiece to prevent damage to the joint due to heat diffusion, and prevention of falling objects such as non-tobacco materials and generation of dust. It means a lid material to be used and a partition material to be supplemented. The gas generation maintenance material is a material in which the flow path of the gas released from the aroma generator to be heated is not blocked. More specifically, a heated fragrance generating base material whose internal structure has been improved by a manufacturing method, a heated fragrance generating base material constituting a heated fragrance generating body having an optimized blending amount, and a heated fragrance generating body. Inorganic particles existing inside and / or on the surface of the constituent base material for generating aroma to be heated, and a base material for generating aroma to be heated having an improved filling rate. Hereinafter, the structures and materials of the present invention will be described in detail.

First, in the fragrance cartridge of the present invention, the filter is formed by molding fibers into a columnar shape and constitutes the whole or a part of the mouthpiece, and the suction optimization means is inside the filter in the longitudinal direction. It has a cavity provided so as not to penetrate the cavity. This filter is a filter made of commonly used cellulose acetate (CA) fiber, polyester fiber such as polyethylene terephthalate (PET), etc., and is a filter of a heated aroma generator using a non-tobacco material. In the case of the fragrance cartridge, since the flow rate of the gas sucked by a general smoker is not sufficient, the suction amount is improved by the cavity.

The shape and quantity of the cavity are not particularly limited and may be appropriately determined according to the type of the aroma generator to be heated, but the effect of increasing the amount of gas sucked by a general smoker , And, considering the difficulty of the method of manufacturing the cavity, it is preferable that at least one is disposed at one end or both ends in the longitudinal direction of the filter.

Further, the position where the cavity is formed is arranged so that when the smoker inhales, the sucked gas uniformly enters the entire oral cavity. When there is one cavity, it is preferably formed on the central axis of a cylinder existing in the longitudinal direction of the filter. When there are two cavities, it is preferable to form the center axis of the cylinder existing in the longitudinal direction of the filter as the center of the target. Further, when there are three or more filters, the center axis is on the central axis of the cylinder existing in the longitudinal direction of the filter, the central axis of the cylinder existing in the longitudinal direction of the filter, and the central axis of the cylinder existing in the longitudinal direction of the filter. It is preferable that the cylinders are arranged at rotationally symmetric positions.

Further, the shape of the cavity is preferably columnar or conical from the viewpoint of the effect of increasing the amount of gas sucked by a general smoker and the difficulty of the method of manufacturing the cavity, but is columnar or pyramidal. The shape of the bottom surface is not limited. However, since it is efficient to form these cavities by general mechanical drilling, electric discharge machining, or laser machining, a columnar or conical shape is preferable from the viewpoint of workability.

Such a filter may constitute the entire mouthpiece by itself, or may be a part of the mouthpiece. If part of the mouthpiece is a filter, the rest is preferably a cavity formed by the cartridge exterior. The arrangement of the filter and the cavity is not particularly limited, and the heated fragrance and the filter may be adjacent to each other, or the heated fragrance and the cavity may be adjacent to each other. As the cartridge exterior, polyolefin resin such as PE and PP, PET resin, CA resin, thin film such as polylactic acid (PLA), and thin paper are usually used, but the cartridge exterior has a cavity. When it is formed, it needs to be thick enough to maintain the strength of the mouthpiece, although it depends on the material.

Further, the mouthpiece can be provided with a member having a preferable function other than the filter to improve the function of the mouthpiece. As such a typical member, generally, a support member for preventing the heated fragrance generator from moving toward the mouthpiece and an aerosol former of the heated fragrance generator are volatilized and then cooled. There is a cooling member to promote smoke production and lower the temperature of the gas, which may form a mouthpiece with a filter. Only one of such members may be applied, or both may be applied. When either one is applied, it is arranged between the aroma generator to be heated and the filter. When both are applied, the support member and the cooling member are arranged in this order or in the reverse order between the aroma generator to be heated and the filter.

It is necessary to lower the temperature of the gas by the cooling member not only for the purpose of cooling and condensing the volatilized aerosol former to generate smoke, but also for the aromatic cartridge as compared with the cigarette. It is also to lower the temperature of the gas itself at an extremely short interval between the heating part and the mouthpiece so that you can enjoy comfortable smoking in the oral cavity. Therefore, the cooling member preferably serves as a heat exchanger, and a columnar porous body having continuous holes having a high porosity, a columnar tube provided with a large number of through holes, or the like is used. The porosity needs to be at least 50% or more, preferably 70 to 90%. As the material, polyolefin resins such as PE and PP, PET resin, CA resin, polylactic acid (PLA) and the like have been used, but metal foils such as aluminum having high thermal conductivity are wrapped around them, and The metal itself is more preferable.

In this way, the mouthpiece has a filter as an essential component that makes it easier for smokers to hold the fragrance cartridge in the mouth and filters the gas to mellow the taste of the gas, and if necessary, a support member and / or A cooling member can be arranged. By utilizing this structure, since it is the filter that hinders the suction of gas, it is possible to shorten the length of the filter and increase the suction amount. Therefore, instead of providing the cavity as described above, the structure of the mouthpiece in which the filter is shortened to increase the suction amount was examined.

Since the length of the fragrance cartridge itself and the length of the fragrance generator to be heated are determined according to the structure of the heated smoking device, when the filter of the mouthpiece is shortened, a part of the filter is replaced with a support member. .. Conventionally, the support member has a hollow columnar structure having a thin side surface because it cannot prevent the passage of gas while preventing the heated aroma generator from moving toward the mouthpiece. Inexpensive polyolefin resins such as polyethylene (PE) and polypropylene (PP), plastics such as CA resin, and paper have been used. Then, in order not to obstruct the passage of gas, it is preferable that the cavity is hollow and the thickness of the side surface of the support member is thin. However, if the filter is shortened and the length of such a support member is increased, there arises a problem that the mouthpiece is easily deformed.

In response to this problem, in the present invention, in an aromatic cartridge including a mouthpiece composed of at least a filter and a support member, the mouthpiece is deformed even if the length of the support member is increased and the thickness of the side surface is reduced. It provides the structure of the support member which does not reduce the suction amount without doing so.

That is, in this fragrance cartridge, the mouthpiece has a support member including a through hole that prevents the heated fragrance generator from moving toward the mouthpiece, and the central axis of the support member and the cylinder of the through hole are substantially the same. The suction optimizing means includes a shape reinforcing member that is fixedly or movably arranged in the through hole. More specifically, the shape reinforcing member includes a support member and at least one plate-shaped member having an axis of the through hole in the plane and contacting the inner wall of the through hole. By arranging such a plate-shaped member in the columnar through hole of the support member, it is not necessary to change the material even if the length of the columnar support member is increased and the thickness of the side surface is reduced. It is possible to prevent deformation of the support member. The shape of this plate-shaped member is preferably a cross section cut in the axial direction of the cylinder, that is, a rectangle, and from the viewpoint of the amount of suction, the thinner the thickness, the better the number, but the deformation is prevented. It is preferable that the polyolefin resin has 2 to 4 sheets and a thickness of 0.1 to 0.5 mm in consideration of the above.

Further, the shape reinforcing member has a radius smaller than the radius of the through hole having substantially the same axis as the central axis of the column of the support member and the through hole, and the concentric column on the outer peripheral side of the concentric column in the radial direction of the concentric column. It is more preferable to provide a plate-shaped member formed so as to come into contact with the inner wall of the through hole in order to prevent deformation of the support member, and from the viewpoint of sucking gas, the concentric cylinder is further hollow. preferable.

In this way, the support member on which the shape reinforcing member for preventing the heated fragrance generator from moving toward the mouthpiece is arranged adjacent to the heated fragrance generator and the filter adjacent to the support member are provided. In an aromatic cartridge to which a mouthpiece is applied, gas suction can be optimized without deforming the support, but in order to control gas suction more widely, a filter having a cavity is applied as a filter. It is more preferable to do so. Further, a cooling member capable of efficiently converting the volatilized aerosol pharmacology into aerosol smoke can be arranged between the filter and the support member. In any of these cases, in order to further optimize the suction amount, it is preferable to apply a filter having a cavity as the filter.

On the other hand, as the suction amount increases due to the improvement of the filter and the support member, the heat of the gas is easily transferred from the heating element to the filter, so that the bonding force between the members constituting the aromatic cartridge decreases. There is. The location of such a joint surface differs depending on the configuration of the fragrance cartridge, but the interface between the heated fragrance generator and the filter, the support member, the cooling member and the cartridge exterior body, the filter and the support member, the cooling member and the cartridge exterior body. The interface between the two, the interface between the support member and the cooling member and the cartridge exterior, the interface between the cooling member and the cartridge exterior, and the like.

When the bonding force at each interface is reduced, gas leaks and adversely affects the suction amount. Therefore, it is preferable to provide a heat insulating member between the heated aroma generator and the mouthpiece. This heat insulating member is made of a plastic heat insulating porous body such as a sponge having continuous holes with a long flow path, instead of spreading a high-temperature gas all over like a support member adjacent to a fragrance to be heated. Preferably, it may have a function of allowing it to stay to some extent and cooling it. Therefore, the length of the heat insulating member is extremely short, the cooling function up to the cooling member is not required, and it is preferable that the heat insulating member is applied instead of the support member that prevents the heated aroma generator from moving toward the mouthpiece.

Further, in the case of a heating type smoking device (Fig. 3) in which the chamber is covered with a heating element, instead of a general heating type smoking device (Fig. 2) having a needle-shaped heating element at the bottom of the chamber, an aromatic cartridge. Since the influence of heat on the heat is larger and the bonding force at the interface of each member is significantly reduced as described above, it is necessary to provide a heat insulating member to prevent the bonding force from being reduced, that is, the suction amount is reduced. As described above, from the viewpoint of eliminating the influence of heat of the heating element and preventing the reduction of the suction amount, the present invention provides a heat insulating member as a suction optimization means between the heated aroma generator and the mouthpiece. It also provides an intervening fragrance cartridge.

Further, since the heated aroma generating base material emits various aromas, the fiber component may be extremely reduced. In such a case, the blending amount of the binder and the like are adjusted, but the blending ratio of the non-tobacco material cannot be significantly reduced in order to maintain the aroma, and the non-tobacco material and the like fall off. Objects and dust are more likely to be generated than usual. These are carried toward the mouthpiece by smoking and become a factor of clogging the voids of the filter and the cooling member, which extremely reduces the suction amount. Further, in the case of a base material for generating a fragrance to be heated having such a composition, even when the fragrance cartridge is pierced into a needle-shaped heating element, fallen matter or dust is likely to be generated.

Therefore, the present invention provides, as a suction optimizing means, an fragrance cartridge in which a lid material is arranged at the end of the heated fragrance generator on the mouthpiece side and a partition wall material is arranged at the end on the opposite side of the mouthpiece. But also. The lid material and the partition wall material may be provided with only one of them or both of them, depending on the state of the base material for generating aroma to be heated and the aroma generator to be heated that bundles them. The lid material and / or partition wall material prevents clogging of the filter and / or cooling member due to falling objects and dust, and a stable suction amount is ensured.

The solution for structurally improving the gas suction optimization of the fragrance cartridge has been described above. However, in order to optimize suction, it is also necessary to improve the heated aroma generator that releases gas by heating. The amount of gas released from the aroma generator to be heated is closely related to the amount of suction described above, and this point will be described below. In the present invention, a material that stabilizes the amount of gas released is referred to as a gas generation sustained material.

The reason why the improvement in the amount of gas released by heating the aroma generator to be heated is not sustained has already been explained, but since it is an important point in the present invention, it will be described again. Aerosol-forming bodies containing tobacco material were covered when using non-tobacco material that did not contain a large amount of fiber, although the fibers of the tobacco material maintained its lumpy state and prevented the tobacco material from falling off and fusing. In order to stably maintain the lumpy state of the heated aromatic base material, a large amount of a binder or the like that functions as a fiber is used. Therefore, when the amount of the binder increases, the density of the aroma generating base material to be heated increases, the gas flow path is closed, and it becomes difficult to suck the suction component.

Further, since the aerosol former is glycerin, propylene glycol, etc., which are liquid at room temperature, the more the binder is, the easier it is to bleed out from the heated aromatic base material over time, and the heated aromatic base materials are melted together. Since it is attached, the flow path between the substrates to generate the aroma to be heated is closed, and it becomes difficult to suck the suction component. Further, when such fusion occurs, it becomes difficult for the heating element to be inserted into the heated aroma generating base material, and the heating element may be damaged. On the contrary, if the amount of binder added is reduced and the gas flow path is secured, non-tobacco material may fall off or dust may occur, making it difficult to maintain the shape of the aromatic cartridge firmly, and inserting it into a heating element. If it is done, it may be destroyed. In addition, these may be sucked into the oral cavity.

Therefore, in the present invention, it has been found that the above-mentioned problems can be solved by a method [apparatus] for producing a base material for generating aroma to be heated. In the following, the description will be made mainly according to the manufacturing method including each step, but it is clear that there is a manufacturing apparatus capable of carrying out the manufacturing method as a whole by providing means for executing each step. .. Therefore, the description of the manufacturing method and the description of the manufacturing apparatus will not be duplicated, and will be described simultaneously (overlapping) as "process [means]" and "method [equipment]".

The reason why the above-mentioned problems can be solved by the method [apparatus] for manufacturing the aroma generating base material to be heated is that the aroma generating base material to be heated is bonded to a medium such as pure water or alcohol with a non-tobacco material, an aerosol former, or the like. From a composition in which a material selected from an agent, an anti-adhesion agent, a fragrance, a non-tobacco material extract, an antibacterial preservative, etc. is dispersed or dissolved as a medium, a paper making method, a roll press, a compression molding method such as a press, and a compression molding method, and A sheet formed by a casting method or the like is dried and then cut to produce a sheet, and the internal structure of the material to be heated aroma changes variously depending on the production method [equipment] in the forming and drying process [means]. It is thought that this is because.

The basis for this is, for example, in the case of blending dissimilar polymers, the phase separation structure of the blend is affected by the manufacturing method [equipment] and manufacturing conditions, and in the case of emulsions and suspensions that disperse oil in water. Whether it is a water droplet type or an oil droplet type in water depends on various factors such as the type of oil, the mixing ratio of oil and water, and the type of surfactant. Then, it is almost impossible to analyze a clear difference in the structure of the aroma-generating base material to be heated due to such a difference in the manufacturing method [equipment] because the material system contained therein is complicated. It seems that a great deal of effort is required to find the law. The reason why the internal structure of polymer blends and emulsions differs depending on the manufacturing method [equipment] is that the substances to be blended are limited, the history of research is long, and analytical methods have been established. Therefore, the difference in structure that occurs depending on the manufacturing conditions is clarified.

Various methods [equipment] for producing a base material for generating aroma to be heated have already been studied, and there is an example as follows. From the process [means] of preparing non-tobacco material by dry mixing after drying and crushing non-tobacco material, and from aerosol former, binder, anti-adhesion agent, fragrance, non-tobacco material extract, antibacterial preservative, etc. Wet mixing includes a step [means] for preparing the selected material, a step [means] for preparing pure water and alcohol, and a wet mixing step [means] for collectively mixing these prepared materials. A paper making process [means] for producing a water-containing sheet from the produced slurry, a molding process [means] for producing a sheet by roll-pressing the produced water-containing sheet, and a step for drying the sheet produced in the molding process [means]. [Means] A method [apparatus] for producing a fragrance to be heated filling by cutting a fragrance generating sheet to be heated produced from the above.

However, since it is difficult to maintain the lumpy state of the heated fragrance generating base material produced by such a method [device], a large amount of binder is required, and the heated fragrance is generated by bleeding out of the aerosol former. There is a problem that the base material is easily fused. Therefore, the amount of gas released from the heated aroma generator using this filling changed significantly with time, and the smoker could not stably inhale the gas.

In the fragrance cartridge of the present invention, the material that stabilizes the amount of gas released from the fragrance generator to be heated, that is, the gas generation sustaining material, is firstly a dry mixing step [means] in which a dried and crushed non-tobacco material is mixed. ] And the non-tobacco material produced in the dry mixing step [means], aerosol former, binder or thickener, crosslinked polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP), fragrance, non-tobacco extract, β-cyclodextrin, microcrystalline cellulose. , And the non-tobacco material produced by the first wet mixing step [means] of mixing the material selected from the antibacterial preservative with the alcohol and pure water mixture and the first wet mixing step [means]. A second wet mixing step [means] for producing a slurry containing a non-tobacco material or the like by further adding pure water and / or alcohol to a mixed solution of alcohol and pure water containing the above, and a second wet mixing step [means]. The paper making process [means] for producing a water-containing sheet from the slurry produced in [means], the sheet forming process [means] for compressing the water-containing sheet to process it into a sheet, and the sheet produced in the sheet forming process [means]. It is a heated fragrance generating base material produced by a drying step [means] of drying to produce a heated fragrance generating sheet and a sheet processing step [means] of cutting or bending the heated fragrance generating sheet.

The manufacturing feature of this method [equipment] is the second wet mixing. The second wet mixing with pure water and alcohol improves the dispersion state of the aerosol former such as polypropylene glycol and glycerin and the non-tobacco material, so that it is heated without increasing the amount of the binder added. The lumpy state of the aroma generating base material can be stabilized, and the bleed-out of the aerosol former can be reduced. In particular, as the alcohol, a lower monoalcohol such as ethanol or propanol is effective and preferable, and the amount of the added amount is preferably 0.1 to 10 parts by mass with respect to 100 parts by mass of the non-tobacco material.

The gas generation sustaining material in the second aromatic cartridge of the present invention includes a dry mixing step [means] for mixing dried and crushed non-tobacco material, a non-tobacco material produced in the dry mixing step [means], and an aerosol. A material selected from formers, binders or thickeners, crosslinked PVPs, fragrances, non-tobacco extracts, β-cyclodextrin, microcrystalline cellulose, and antibacterial preservatives is mixed into a mixture of alcohol and pure water. Pure water and / or alcohol is further added to the alcohol and pure water mixed solution containing the non-tobacco material and the like produced by the first wet mixing step [means] and the first wet mixing step [means]. A second wet mixing step [means] for producing a slurry containing a non-tobacco material and the like, a paper making step [means] for producing a water-containing sheet from the slurry produced in the second wet mixing step [means], and a water-containing sheet. Aerosolformer absorption in which an aerosolformer is applied or immersed in a water-containing sheet whose water content is reduced to less than 50% by mass by a sheet forming step [means] for compressing or casting and processing into a sheet and a sheet forming step [means]. The process [means], the drying step [means] of drying the sheet produced in the aerosol former absorption step [means] to produce a heated aroma generating sheet, and the sheet processing for cutting or bending the heated aroma generating sheet. It is a base material for generating aroma to be heated, which is produced from the process [means].

The manufacturing feature of this method [equipment] is also in the second wet mixing, and the alcohol is preferably a lower monoalcohol such as ethanol or propanol, and the amount of the alcohol added is 0. It is preferable that the amount is 1 to 10 parts by mass, which is the same as that of the first production method [equipment], but the feature of the second production method [equipment] is that the water content is further reduced to less than 50% by mass. An aerosol former absorbing step [means] for applying or immersing an aerosol former in the water-containing sheet has been added. In the conventional manufacturing method [equipment], the aerosol former and the non-tobacco material are poorly dispersed, and the aerosol former and the non-tobacco material are used in the undried fragrance-generating base sheet to be heated having a water content of less than 50% by mass. Was free, making it difficult to absorb the aerosol former. However, since the dispersion state is improved by the second wet step [means], the aerosol former is absorbed into the sheet in the aerosol former absorption step [means], so that the amount of the aerosol former and the binder added is first. In addition to being able to stabilize the lumpy state of the material to be heated and reducing the bleed-out of the aerosol former, the aerosol former is more likely to be volatilized by heating, even if it is the same as the manufacturing method [equipment] of.

The gas generation sustaining material in the third aromatic cartridge of the present invention includes a wet mixing step [means] for producing a slurry of non-tobacco material by mixing dried and crushed non-tobacco material with pure water, and a wet mixing step [means]. Manufactured by a paper making process [means] for producing a water-containing sheet from the slurry produced in [means], a sheet forming process [means] for compressing or casting a water-containing sheet to process a sheet, and a sheet forming process [means]. Aerosolformer, binder or thickener, crosslinked PVP, fragrance, non-tobacco extraction on the sheet produced by the drying step [means] for reducing the water content of the sheet to less than 50% by mass and the drying step [means]. Absorption by applying or immersing a substance, β-cyclodextrin, microcrystalline cellulose, a concentrated solution of water discharged in the sheet forming process [means], and an alcohol and pure water mixed solution of a material selected from antibacterial preservatives. And the adsorption step [means], the drying step [means] for producing the heated aroma generating sheet by drying the sheet produced in the absorption and adsorption step [means], and cutting or bending the heated aroma generating sheet. It is a base material for generating aroma to be heated, which is produced from the sheet processing process [means].

In the first and second manufacturing methods [equipment], a water-containing sheet was formed by papermaking from a slurry in which all materials such as non-tobacco materials were wet-mixed with pure water and alcohol. ] Is characterized in that a hydrous seed is produced from a slurry of a non-tobacco material alone, and other materials such as an aerosol former are absorbed and adsorbed on the dried sheet. In the first and second manufacturing methods [equipment], there is a problem in wet dispersion of all materials, as in the case of improving the dispersion between the non-tobacco material and the aerosol former. Therefore, as a result of examining a manufacturing method [equipment] that does not go through the step [means] of mixing and dispersing the non-tobacco material and the aerosol former, the dried non-tobacco material is as in the third manufacturing method [equipment]. It was found that pure water and an alcohol mixture of other materials such as an aerosol former rapidly permeate into the sheet, and are absorbed and adsorbed, leading to the present invention. The lumpy state of the aroma generating substrate to be heated produced by this method [apparatus] was stable, and the bleed-out of the aerosol former was also reduced.

The gas-forming sustained material in the fourth aromatic cartridge of the present invention includes a non-tobacco material preparation step [means] for drying and pulverizing the non-tobacco material, and at least a fragrance and / or a non-tobacco material extract and crosslinked PVP and / or. A fragrance and / or non-tobacco extract mixing step [means] of mixing β-cyclodextrin with alcohol to anchor the fragrance and / or non-tobacco extract to crosslinked PVP and / or β-cyclodextrin, and at least with an aerosol former. Aerosolformer dissolving step [means] of mixing a binder or thickener with pure water, materials produced in the non-tobacco material preparation step [means], and fragrance and / or non-tobacco extract dissolving step [means] A wet mixing step [means] that mixes the material manufactured in the above and the material manufactured in the aerosol former melting step [means], and a sheet for generating aroma to be heated by compressing from the material manufactured in the wet mixing step [means]. It is a base material for generating aroma to be heated produced from a sheet forming step [means] for producing the above and a sheet processing step [means] for cutting or bending a sheet for generating aroma to be heated.

The conventional manufacturing method [equipment] has been characterized in that a sheet is formed from a slurry such as a non-tobacco material through a papermaking process [means], but in view of the result of the third manufacturing method [equipment], non-tobacco Since there is a problem in casting a sheet from a slurry of materials having various properties such as materials, there is little pure water and alcohol and a highly viscous non-cigarette without passing through a large amount of pure water and alcohol slurry. A sheet of the aroma generating base material to be heated is formed by using a roll press such as a three-roll press for a mixture of materials and the like. In this method [device], since a large shearing force and compressive force are applied to a mixture such as non-tobacco material, it is considered that all the materials are uniformly kneaded and dispersed.

Here, at least the fragrance and / or non-tobacco material extract and the crosslinked PVP and / or β-cyclodextrin are mixed with alcohol, and the fragrance and / or the non-tobacco extract is retained in the crosslinked PVP and / or β-cyclodextrin. A mixing step [means] for mixing and at least an aerosolformer dissolving step [means] for mixing an aerosolformer with a binder or a thickener in pure water are provided, and a fragrance, a non-tobacco material extract, an aerosolformer, a binder or a binder is provided. It is important to dissolve in advance a material that is soluble in pure water and alcohol, such as a thickener. In particular, when menthol and / or xylitol is used as the fragrance, these are bound to the crosslinked PVP and / or β-cyclodextrin and are stably present in the aroma generating substrate to be heated, causing bleed-out of the aerosol former. Since at least the flavor and / or non-tobacco material extract and cross-linked PVP and / or β-cyclodextrin are mixed with alcohol to have a suppressive effect, the flavor and / or non-tobacco extract is cross-linked PVP and / or β-. The mixing step [means] of anchoring to cyclodextrin plays a vital role.

By adopting this manufacturing method [equipment], the lumpy state of the aroma generating substrate to be heated is stable, the bleed-out of the aerosol former can be significantly reduced, and the aroma generating substrate to be heated is not fused. The volatilization of the gas by heating the aroma generator to be heated was promoted, and it was possible to prevent the suction amount from decreasing with time.

Further, in the sheet molding step [means] of this production method [equipment], non-tobacco material, aerosol former, binder or thickener, crosslinked PVP, fragrance, non-tobacco extract, β-cyclodextrin, microcrystalline cellulose, It is preferable to add a step [means] of adding an antibacterial preservative and a material selected from pure water. This step [means] can promote kneading by shearing force and compressive force in the sheet forming step [means], control the amount of water, and increase the volatility of the aerosol former.

The gas generation sustaining material in the fifth aromatic cartridge of the present invention is a non-tobacco material that has been dried and crushed, a first aqueous binder solution in which the first binder is dissolved in pure water, an aerosol former, and a crosslinked PVP. The first wet mixing step [means] of mixing, a fragrance, a non-tobacco material extract, β-cyclodextrin, microcrystalline cellulose, and a material selected from antibacterial preservatives, and a first wet mixing step. A curing step [means] for stabilizing the mixed solution produced in the [means], and a second binder aqueous solution prepared by dissolving the curing mixed solution and the second binder produced in the curing step [means] in pure water. A second wet mixing step [means] for mixing the above, a sheet forming step [means] for producing a heated aroma generating sheet by compressing the material produced in the second wet mixing step [means], and a subject. It is a heated aroma generating base material produced from a sheet processing step [means] for cutting or bending a heated aroma generating sheet. Further, in this manufacturing method [equipment] as well as in the fourth manufacturing method [equipment], in the sheet molding step [means], non-tobacco material, aerosol former, binder or thickener, crosslinked PVP, fragrance, non-tobacco extraction It is preferable to add a step [means] of adding a material, β-cyclodextrin, microcrystalline cellulose, an antibacterial preservative, and a material selected from pure water.

In this manufacturing method [equipment], in particular, a step [means] for curing the mixed solution is provided, and a step [means] for adding the binder in two portions before and after the curing step [means] is provided. It is in that. As the binder, a modified cellulose-based polymer is preferable for the first time, and a polysaccharide-based polymer other than the cellulose-based polymer is preferable for the second time.

The curing step [means] means that the dispersed state of the mixture such as non-tobacco material changes with time, and it is presumed that it leads to a stable and uniform dispersed state with the lowest energy. It is considered that this is because the state change can form a lumpy state of the substrate for generating aroma to be heated.

Further, by adding the binder in two portions, the mixture can be sufficiently dispersed even if the amount of the binder added is reduced, and the viscosity can be easily adjusted. It is closely related to the curing process [means]. Since a stable dispersed state is created by adding and curing the first binder, it becomes easier to add the second binder, the amount added can be reduced, and the viscosity can be easily adjusted. Become. Therefore, in the first time, a modified cellulose-based polymer having a superior ability to disperse is preferable, and in the second time, a polysaccharide-based polymer other than the cellulose-based polymer having a superior ability as a thickener for adjusting the viscosity is preferable.

Examples of such modified cellulose-based polymers include methyl cellulose, ethyl cellulose, carboxymethyl cellulose, carboxyethyl cellulose, hydroxymethyl cellulose, hydroxyethyl cellulose, hydroxypropyl cellulose, and sodium salts, potassium salts, and calcium salts of carboxymethyl cellulose and carboxyethyl cellulose. It is preferable to use any one or more of them, and as the polysaccharide polymer, konjak mannan (glucomannan), guar gum, pectin, carrageenan, tamarin seed gum, arabic gum, soybean polysaccharide, locust bean gum, karaya gum, xanthan gum, And, it is preferable to use any one or more of agar.

The amount of the binder to be blended is preferably 5 to 20 parts by mass of the first binder and 0.1 to 5 parts by mass of the second binder with respect to 100 parts by mass of the non-tobacco material.

The curing step [means] that leads to a stable dispersed state also has appropriate conditions, and is preferably carried out at 15 to 30 ° C. for 72 to 336 hours. Appropriate temperature conditions are temperature dependent, as the binder is a polymer with hydroxyl or carboxyl groups, the presence or absence of hydrogen bond formation makes a difference in the molecular state dissolved in pure water and alcohol. It is considered that this is the cause, and the optimum temperature range was derived as a result of the experiment. It takes a minimum amount of time for the dispersed state to change over time and stabilize, but even if it takes longer than necessary, there is no significant change and productivity is reduced.

In the above, the solution method of optimizing the material that stably releases the gas from the heated aroma generator, that is, the heated aroma generating base material that is the continuous gas generation material, by the manufacturing method [apparatus] has been described. We devised a material that releases gas more positively and stably.

This gas-forming sustained material is an inorganic particle. There are two effects of inorganic particles, depending on where they are located. One is the case where the inorganic particles are present inside the aromatic filler to be heated. By adding the inorganic particles to the aroma generator to be heated, the density of the aroma generating base material to be heated is lowered, the gas flow path is not closed, and the suction of gas is not difficult. The other is the case where the inorganic particles are on the surface of the heated aroma generating sheet or the heated aroma generating base material. Even if the aerosol former bleeds out from the heated aroma generating base material over time, the inorganic particles can prevent the fusion phenomenon between the heated aroma generating base materials, and the heated aroma generating sheet or the heated aroma generating base material can be prevented. It is solved that the suction component is difficult to be sucked because the flow path between the aroma generating base materials is not closed. Further, since the fusion of the heated aroma generating sheet or the heated aroma generating base material is eliminated, it is also solved that it becomes difficult for the heating element to be inserted into the heated aroma generating base material. Further, the introduction of inorganic particles into the heated aroma generating body reduces the contact area between the heating element and the organic component of the heated aroma generating base material regardless of the inside or the surface of the heated aroma generating base material. It also has the effect of reducing the contamination of the heating element of the heating type smoking equipment.

In order to allow such inorganic particles to exist inside the heated aroma generating base material as a gas generation sustaining material, the heated aroma generating base material composition is used as a raw material in the manufacturing process of the heated aroma generating base material described above. It may be added to the substance. The step [means] for adding the inorganic particles is not particularly limited, but it is preferable to add the inorganic particles before wet mixing of the tobacco material or the like.

On the other hand, in order to make the particles to be present on the surface of the aroma generating substrate to be heated, in the above-mentioned five manufacturing methods [equipment], the inorganic particles are subjected to the heating after the step [means] for producing the aroma generating sheet to be heated. After the step [means] of spraying on the aroma generating sheet and the sheet processing step [means] for producing the heated aroma generating base material, there is a step [means] of spraying the inorganic particles on the heated aroma generating base material.

Examples of the inorganic particles include metal oxides such as magnesium oxide, calcium oxide, titanium oxide, iron oxide and alumina, metal carbonates such as magnesium carbonate and calcium carbonate, metal phosphates such as calcium phosphate, potassium titanate and magnesium titanate. Titanate such as, zeolite, colloidal silica, silicon oxide such as fumed silica, etc. are preferable, and the average particle size is more preferably 1 to 100 μm. Further, in order for the inorganic particles to function effectively, it is preferable to add 0.1 to 10 parts by mass of the inorganic particles to 100 parts by mass of the non-tobacco material.

As described above, the fragrance cartridge of the present invention comprises a heated fragrance generator wrapped with a heated fragrance generating base material that comes into contact with the heating element, and smoke and aroma components of an aerosol generated by heating from the heating element. A mouthpiece provided with a filter for filtering and a cartridge outer body wrapping the outer periphery so as to connect the heated aerosol generator and the mouthpiece, and at least one of the heated aerosol generator and the mouthpiece is provided. It has at least one means for optimizing the suction of smoke and aroma components and a material for sustaining gas generation of smoke and aroma components. In the above, the suction optimization means and the gas generation sustaining material in the fragrance cartridge of the present invention have been described, but the inventions complementing these will be further described below.

First, it is preferable that the filling rate of the heated aroma generating base material constituting the heated aroma generating body is 60 to 90% for stable gas suction. If it exceeds this filling rate, it is difficult to suck the gas, and if it is less than this filling rate, the amount of gas released is insufficient. In particular, in order to prevent the time-dependent fusion of the aroma-generating base material to be heated, the filling rate is preferably 60 to 73%. When the filling rate exceeds 73%, the temporal fusion of the aroma generating substrate to be heated becomes conspicuous. However, this does not apply to the case of the heated aroma generating base material produced from the improved manufacturing method [apparatus] as described above, or the heated aroma generating base material in which inorganic particles are present inside or on the surface. Even if the rate exceeds 73%, the fusion over time does not become severe.

The aerosol former contained in the substrate for generating aroma to be heated is preferably 50 to 80 parts by mass with respect to 100 parts by mass of the non-tobacco material. If it is less than this amount, the volatilization amount of the aerosol former that becomes the aerosol is insufficient, and if it is more than this amount, the aerosol former bleeds out from the material to be heated and the aroma is generated. It fuses violently.

Further, the crosslinked PVP plays a role of stabilizing the lumpy state of the aroma-generating base material to be heated and retaining aroma components such as menthol and xylitol, and is 7 to 25 parts by mass with respect to 100 parts by mass of the non-tobacco material. If it is less than this amount, the function of the crosslinked PVP cannot be exhibited, and if it exceeds this amount, the aroma component due to the non-tobacco material or the like is insufficient.

The amount of microcrystalline cellulose is preferably 7 to 25 parts by mass with respect to 100 parts by mass of the non-tobacco material. This microcrystalline cellulose is a fluid powder that is insoluble in organic solvents such as water and ethanol, and is used as an excipient for tablet molding in pharmaceuticals. This is because the fluidity of the microcrystalline cellulose and the high compressibility with a large volume change are effective in preventing cohesive failure and adhesion to the mold in the molding of tablets by the direct striking method. The same effect can be obtained with a substrate for generating aroma to be heated, and this function cannot be exhibited if the blending amount is less than the above. On the contrary, if the blending amount is exceeded, the blending ratio of other materials is relatively insufficient, which adversely affects the function as a base material for generating aroma to be heated.

Finally, β-cyclodextrin is preferably 0.2 to 1.0 parts by mass with respect to 100 parts by mass of the non-tobacco material. Since β-cyclodextrin plays a role of retaining aroma components such as menthol and xylitol, at least this amount is necessary, but excessive addition inhibits the function as a base material for generating aroma to be heated. .. In particular, it is known to enclose menthol, and when menthol is used as an aroma component, it is preferable to add it.

Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in more detail with reference to the drawings and embodiments, but the present invention is not limited thereto, and various modifications can be made without departing from the gist of the present invention. It is limited only by the technical idea described in the claims.

In FIG. 1, an electrically controlled heating element is attached so as to be in contact with the heating element of a heating type smoking device provided in the chamber, and the smoke of the aerosol generated by heating the heating element and the aroma component can be enjoyed. It is a schematic diagram which shows the process [means] of the general structure and manufacturing method [device] of a columnar aromatic cartridge. The fragrance cartridge of the present invention is also assembled in the same manner with basically the same configuration except that no tobacco component is used as a heated fragrance generator that generates an aerosol that is heated and released by the heating element. Be done. That is, in the fragrance cartridge of the present invention, the fragrance generator to be heated, which is wrapped with a non-tobacco material, an aerosol former, or the like, is in contact with the mouthpiece, and the fragrance generator to be heated is electrically controlled. The heated aerosol generator and the outside of the mouthpiece are connected in a state of being wound by a cartridge outer body in a state of being adjacent to the longitudinal direction in which the mouthpiece is attached so as to be in contact with the heat generating body.

FIGS. 2 and 3 show a state in which such a fragrance cartridge is attached to a heating type smoking device and smoked for two types of heating elements. In order to clarify the characteristics of the fragrance cartridge of the present invention, a mechanism for enjoying the fragrance cartridge by attaching it to a heated smoking device will be briefly described.

FIG. 2A is a schematic schematic view of a cross section of an electrically heated smoking device (1) 11 provided with a needle-shaped electrically controlled heating element 113 provided at the bottom of a chamber 112 housed in a casing 111. .. FIG. 2B is a schematic cross-sectional view of the fragrance cartridge 2 , in which the heated fragrance generator 21 wrapped with the interior material 21-p and the mouthpiece 22 wrapped with the interior material 22-p are formed. , Heated smoking device (1) 11 is wound and connected by a cartridge exterior body 23 in a state of being adjacent to each other in the longitudinal direction. Then, FIG. 2C shows a state in which the smoker sucks the fragrance cartridge 2 by using the electrically heated smoking device (1) 11 . The heated fragrance generator 21 side of the fragrance cartridge 2 shown in FIG. 2B is inserted into the chamber 112, and the heated fragrance generator 21 is pierced into the electrically controlled heating element 113. When a smoker presses a switch (not shown), the electrically controlled heating element 113 is heated according to a signal of an electric control unit (not shown), and aerosol smoke and aroma components are released from the heated aromatic generator 21. , Suck them. When the smoker inhales, as shown by the arrow W, air enters through the intake port 115, passes through the gap between the casing 111 and the chamber 112, and the aerosol former and the aroma component volatilized from the heated aroma generator 21. Is carried to the mouthpiece 22 and sucked into the smoker's mouth. The smoke is cooled in the mouthpiece 22 and sucked as an aerosol.

FIG. 3A is a schematic schematic view of a cross section of an electrically heated smoking device (2) 12 provided with an electrically controlled heating element 123 provided on the outer periphery of a chamber 122 housed in a casing 121. FIG. 3B shows a state in which a smoker sucks the fragrance cartridge 2 using the electrically heated smoking device (2) 12 . When the heated fragrance generator 21 side of the fragrance cartridge 2 shown in FIG. 3B is inserted into the chamber 122 from the fragrance cartridge insertion port 124, the heated fragrance generator 21 is surrounded by the electrically controlled heating element 123. When a switch (not shown) is pressed, the electrically controlled heating element 123 is heated according to the signal of the electric control unit 1231, and the aerosol smoke and the aroma component are emitted from the heated aromatic generator 21 and sucked. When the smoker inhales, as shown by the arrow W, air enters from the intake hole 125, and the aerosol former and the aroma component volatilized from the heated aroma generator 21 are carried to the mouthpiece 22 and into the smoker's oral cavity. Is sucked into. The smoke is cooled in the mouthpiece 22 and sucked as an aerosol.

In such smoking, the aromatic cartridge composed only of non-tobacco material does not generate harmful substances, tar and nicotine to the human body, and beverages such as coffee, cola and red bull, chocolate, vanilla, cream and the like. It has the advantage of being able to enjoy various flavors such as desserts, fruits such as oranges, lemons and melons, and refreshing agents such as menthol, mint and herbs, but it can be used as a substitute for tobacco materials that contain a large amount of fiber. It has problems due to the use of a wide variety of non-tobacco materials for release.

In the aerosol-forming body containing the tobacco material, the fibers of the tobacco material maintained the lumpy state and prevented the tobacco material from falling off and fusing, but the aroma to be heated containing the non-tobacco material containing a large amount of fiber. In order to stably maintain the lumpy state of the generating base material, it is necessary to add a large amount of a binder or the like that functions as a fiber. Therefore, the density of the base material for generating aroma to be heated becomes high, the gas flow path is closed, it becomes difficult to suck the suction component, and as a result, the suction amount decreases.

Further, since the aerosol former is glycerin, propylene glycol, etc., which are liquid at room temperature, the more the binder is, the more the aerosol former bleeds out from the heated aromatic base material over time, and the heated aromatic base materials are fused to each other. To do. Therefore, the gas flow path is closed, making it difficult to suck the aroma component, and as a result, the suction amount decreases. Further, when such fusion occurs, it becomes difficult for the heating element to be inserted into the heated aroma generating base material, and the heating element may be damaged.

On the contrary, if the amount of binder added is reduced and the gas flow path is secured, non-tobacco material may fall off or dust may occur, making it difficult to maintain the shape of the aromatic cartridge firmly, and inserting it into a heating element. If it is done, it may be destroyed. In addition, these may be sucked into the oral cavity.

An object of the present invention is to provide a means for solving these problems. That is, a means for securing a gas flow path and preventing a decrease in the suction amount is provided. It should be noted that a solution for significantly changing the composition or compounding ratio constituting the aroma generating base material to be heated cannot be adopted because it is necessary to maintain the generation of aerosols that become smoke and the generation of aroma components released from non-tobacco materials. .. Therefore, the present invention provides a means for solving from two aspects different from those.

One is a physical solution that constitutes an aromatic cartridge and focuses on the structure of a mouthpiece that has a great influence on the amount of suction. The other is a chemical solution focusing on a method [apparatus] for producing a base material for generating aroma to be heated and a filling state thereof.

The former physical solution is to provide a fragrance cartridge in which the mouthpiece is provided with a suction optimization means for improving the suction amount, and by supplementing the heated fragrance generator with fallen substances such as non-tobacco material and dust. It is an object of the present invention to provide an aromatic cartridge provided with a suction optimizing means for preventing a decrease in the suction amount. More specifically, the filter constituting the mouthpiece, the support for preventing the heated aroma generator constituting the mouthpiece from moving toward the mouthpiece, and the mouthpiece as suction optimization means, respectively. Provided are fragrance cartridges provided with a cavity for improving the suction amount by expanding the gas flow path, a shape reinforcing member for preventing a decrease in the suction amount due to deformation, and a heat insulating material for preventing damage to the joint due to heat diffusion. Is. Another object of the present invention is to provide an fragrance cartridge provided with a lid material and / or a partition wall material for preventing and capturing falling objects such as non-tobacco materials and dust as a suction optimizing means for a fragrance generator to be heated.

The latter chemical solution is to provide the heated aroma generator with an aroma cartridge provided with a gas production maintenance material that does not reduce the suction amount. More specifically, the heated fragrance generator is used as a gas generation maintaining material, a heated fragrance generating base material whose internal structure is improved by a manufacturing method [equipment], and a heated fragrance generating group whose blending amount is optimized. It is an object of the present invention to provide an fragrance cartridge including a material, inorganic particles existing inside and / or on the surface of a fragrance generating substrate to be heated, and an fragrance generating substrate to be heated having an improved filling rate.

Since these suction optimizing means and the gas generation maintenance material can exert a sufficient effect by themselves, FIG. 4 shows the suction optimization with the heated aroma generator in which the gas generation maintenance material is not arranged. The configuration of the fragrance cartridge for joining the mouthpiece in which the means are arranged is shown in FIG. 33. The fragrance generator to be heated in which the gas generation maintaining material is arranged and the mouse in which the suction optimization means is not arranged. The configuration of the aromatic cartridge for joining the pieces is shown. However, since higher or wider effects can be obtained when used in combination, it is possible to provide an extremely wide variety of fragrance cartridges in all combinations of the heated fragrance generator and the mouthpiece shown in FIGS. 4 and 33.

First, the suction optimization means will be described in detail with reference to the drawings. FIG. 5 shows a mouthpiece 221-1 and a fragrance generator 21 to be heated, which are composed of a filter unit 221-1 for filtering a gas in which one cavity 221-1-c1 is formed according to an embodiment of the present invention.

It is a figure. For example, the outer diameters of the fragrance cartridge, the fragrance generator to be heated, and the mouthpiece are determined by the heating type smoking tools (1) 11 and (2) 12 as shown in FIGS. 2 and 3, and should be appropriately set. However, hereinafter, the outer diameter j and the length k of the fragrance cartridge are 6.9 mm and 45 mm, respectively, the length a of the fragrance generator to be heated is 12 mm, and the length m (= filter) of the mouthpiece (= filter). f) was 33 mm.

As for the size of the cavity, the suction amount can be increased as the length is increased, but due to the problem of the strength of the mouthpiece, the length c1, the inner diameter b1, and the surface area are 10 to 25 mm and 1 to 5, respectively. It is preferably 4 mm, 34.54 to 326.54 mm ² . In one embodiment of FIG. 5, a straight columnar cavity having a length c1 of 20 mm and an inner diameter of 3 mm is formed. Further, the shape of the cavity is exemplified as a straight columnar cavity as the most preferable shape, but it may be an oblique columnar shape and is not limited. A hole that does not penetrate the filter may be used, but in consideration of uniform suction of gas into the oral cavity and processability, a shape symmetrical about the central axis of the filter is preferable, and a triangular column, a square column, and a pentagon are preferable. A columnar shape such as a columnar shape and a weight shape such as a cone shape (FIG. 9), a triangular pyramid shape, a square pyramid shape, and a pentagonal pyramid shape are preferable.

Further, although the cavity of FIG. 5 is formed at the end of the filter on the side of the aroma generator to be heated in the longitudinal direction, it may be provided at the end of the filter opposite to the end.

FIG. 6 shows a mouthpiece 221-2 composed of a filter unit 221-2 for filtering a gas in which two cavities 221-2-c2 and 221-2-c3 are formed according to an embodiment of the present invention. The aroma cartridge 2-2 to which the aroma generator 21 to be heated is adjacent and these are joined and wound by the cartridge outer body 23, and the cavities 221-2-c2 and 221-2-c3 are the filters 221-. In the filter 221-2 at both ends in the longitudinal direction of 2, the central axis о of the right cylinder of the filter 221-2 and the cavities 221-2-c2 and 221-2-c3 is arranged so as to be substantially the same. It is the schematic schematic diagram which shows the fragrance cartridge 2-2 .

As the support member, a PE tube having a through hole having an inner diameter of 4.0 mm was used in a cylinder having an outer diameter of 6.9 mm. As the filter, a filter having a length of 23 mm, which was formed by forming an acetyl cellulose fiber into a columnar shape and wrapped with a paper having a basis weight of 34 g / m ² , was used. The cartridge outer body was formed by using paper having a basis weight of 38 g / m ² and winding it around two and a half turns so as to have an inner diameter of 6.9 mm and gluing it. As the cartridge exterior, if a paper cylinder formed by winding paper having a basis weight of 32 to 45 g / m ² for two and a half turns is used, the portion of the heated aroma generator is heated. It is suitable as an aromatic cartridge to be used by inserting it into the heating element of. Then, a support member and a filter are inserted from one end of the cartridge outer body to form a mouthpiece, and after inserting a heated aroma generator from the other end, the basis weight is 40 g / m ² so as to overlap the mouthpiece portion. Paper was wrapped around to make an aromatic cartridge. However, the filter is a filter in which a cavity, which is a suction optimization means, is not formed in order to clarify the influence of the manufacturing method [equipment] on the aroma generating substrate to be heated, that is, the difference in the function of the gas generation sustaining material. It was used.

The heated fragrance generator and fragrance cartridge produced in this manner were evaluated as follows.

≪Evaluation 1≫
The prepared fragrance cartridge was filled in a paper box having a long side of 70 mm, a short side of 14 mm, and a height of 45 mm so that the fragrance generator to be heated faces the bottom. In this way, the prepared box containing the aromatic cartridge was placed in a plastic bag for 2 weeks in an environment of 40 ° C. and left to stand. After that, the products taken out and left in a normal temperature and humidity environment for one day are evaluated as follows. Remove the filler from the aroma generator to be heated and check if they are solidified. At the same time, five subjects were asked to smoke, and the amount of suction and the sensory evaluation of flavor were performed.
Rank A: Things that come loose when taken out with tweezers
4 or more people can fully feel the suction amount and flavor Rank B: Tweezers to loosen
Those that two or more people can fully feel the suction amount and flavor Rank C: Those that remain lumps even when pressed with tweezers
No one can fully perceive both the suction amount and flavor. Rank C products are likely to be difficult to insert into the heating element of a heated smoking device due to long-term storage.

The fragrance cartridge produced in (Production Example 1) was evaluated as Rank C, and the heated fragrance generating sheet and the heated fragrance filling were fused over time, and the amount of gas released during smoking, that is, gas suction. As the amount decreased, the flavor also changed, and it did not function as a gas-forming sustained material for the aromatic to be heated.

This problem was solved by improving the manufacturing method [equipment]. As shown in FIG. 27, this manufacturing method [apparatus] is characterized in that a second wet mixing step [means] is introduced as a manufacturing step [means]. As is clear from the figure, the dry mixing step [means] Z1 for mixing the dried and crushed non-tobacco material, the non-tobacco material produced in the dry mixing step [means], and the aerosol former, binder or thickening. A first wet mixing step of mixing a material selected from agents, crosslinked PVPs, fragrances, non-tobacco extracts, β-cyclodextrin, microcrystalline cellulose, and antibacterial preservatives into a mixture of alcohol and pure water [ Means] A slurry containing pure water and / or alcohol by further adding pure water and / or alcohol to a mixed solution of pure water and / or pure water containing M2 and a non-tobacco material or the like produced by the first wet mixing step [means]. The second wet mixing step [means] M3 for producing the water-containing sheet, the paper making step [means] S1 for producing a water-containing sheet from the slurry produced in the second wet mixing step [means], and the sheet by compressing the water-containing sheet. The sheet molding step [means] S2 to be processed into the above, the drying step [means] S3 to dry the sheet produced in the sheet molding step [means] to produce a heated aroma generating sheet, and the heated aroma generating sheet are cut. Alternatively, the heated aroma generating base material is produced from the sheet processing step [means] H1 for bending.

As a specific example, (Production Example 2) is shown.

(Manufacturing Example 2)
Black tea leaves are dried at 70 ° C. so as to have a water content of 2% by mass, and then pulverized. Similarly, legume licorice, lotus leaves, and ginseng are dried and crushed. The drying temperature is preferably 60 ° C. to 80 ° C. or lower. Within this range, it is easy to reach the desired amount of water while avoiding the dissolution of the required flavor component. When the temperature is 65 ° C. or higher, the desired amount of water can be easily reached, and when the temperature is 75 ° C. or lower, the required aroma component can be prevented from being dissipated.

The water content after pulverization is preferably 5% by mass or less. In this way, the slurry can be easily formed in the subsequent step [means]. It is more preferably 3% by mass or less. Further, when the water content is 0.1% by mass or more, it is preferable that the state of good affinity with water or the like can be maintained.

The dried and crushed material passed through an 80-mesh sieve was used as a non-tobacco material, and was put into a dry mixer in the following blending amount to perform dry mixing for 5 minutes.
100 parts by mass of dried crushed tea leaves 20 parts by mass of dried crushed legumes 10 parts by mass of dried crushed lotus leaves 5 parts by mass of dried crushed Korean ginseng

The above dry mixture and the following materials were put into a wet mixer, and the first wet mixing was performed for 15 minutes.
Polypropylene glycol 30 parts by mass Glycerin 20 parts by mass Carboxymethyl cellulose sodium salt 5 parts by mass Mensole 3 parts by mass Ethanol 3 parts by mass Pure water 20 parts by mass

Next, 180 parts by mass of pure water and 10 parts by mass of ethanol are added to the wet mixer containing the slurry, and the second wet mixing is performed for 10 minutes. Here, ethanol was added because the dispersed state of the dried pulverized product with respect to polypropylene glycol and glycerin can be greatly improved. Alcohol is not limited to ethanol as long as it is a lower monoalcohol. The amount of such lower monoalcohol added is preferably 0.1 to 10 parts by mass with respect to 100 parts by mass of the dried pulverized product. When it is 0.1 parts by mass or more, the improvement of the dispersed state is recognized, and when it is 10 parts by mass or less, the residual lower monoalcohol can be suppressed. This effect is more remarkable when the amount is 0.5 to 5 parts by mass.

The reason why pure water is first added to form a mixture is that a slurry having good dispersibility can be obtained by proceeding with the dispersion of the mixture in advance and then diluting and mixing with additional water. Therefore, it is also preferable to add water in a plurality of times. When the water is added in a plurality of times, it is preferable to take a combination in which the amount of water added before is reduced and the amount of water added later is increased. This is because the degree of improvement in dispersibility when water is added before is high, and a uniform slurry is obtained when the amount of water added later is increased.

In the step [means] of forming a sheet from the slurry obtained as described above, a water-containing sheet was prepared by charging the slurry in a specified amount into a frame provided with an appropriate drainboard. At this time, in the example of this embodiment, the water content of the slurry is about 95, assuming that the water content of the slurry is 100.

Subsequently, the water-containing sheet was passed through a press roll having a predetermined clearance three times for molding, and then the water-containing sheet passed three times was passed with water equivalent to 7 parts by mass with respect to 100 parts by mass. It was added to the sheet and further passed through the press roll 5 times. Preferably, it is 2 parts by mass or more and 15 parts by mass or less of water with respect to 100 parts by mass of the water-containing sheet. As described above, when the water-containing sheet is molded a plurality of times, adding water in the middle has the effect of easily aligning the water contained in the water-containing sheet within a certain range, and is a condition of the subsequent drying step [means]. It has the effect of being able to align the quality of the final product as well as the effect of being able to align the quality of the final product.

Further, the molded water-containing sheet obtained as described above was dried in an environment of 35 ° C. for 300 minutes to prepare a molded sheet for an electronic cigarette filling having a water content of 20% by mass. The drying temperature is preferably less than 50 ° C. in order to maintain the flavor. More preferably, it is less than 45 ° C, and even more preferably less than 40 ° C. The thickness of the sheet was 0.5 mm. Since this sheet is wound as a heated aroma generator, a heated aroma generating sheet having a length z of 240 mm and a width x of 75 mm and a heated aroma generating sheet having a length z of 240 mm and a width x of 1.5 mm are heated. It was cut into aroma generating fillings.

One heated fragrance generating sheet and 50 heated fragrance generating fillers produced by this method [apparatus] were wound and then cut so as to have a length z of 12 mm. Heated aroma generators as shown in A-1) and FIG. 26 (B) were produced. Then, as in (Production Example 1), a fragrance cartridge of the type in which the heated fragrance generator is bonded to the mouthpiece provided with the support member and the filter shown in FIG. 13 was produced. However, the filter is a filter in which a cavity, which is a suction optimization means, is not formed in order to clarify the influence of the manufacturing method [equipment] on the aroma generating substrate to be heated, that is, the difference in the function of the gas generation sustaining material. It was used.

Then, as in the case of the fragrance cartridge produced in (Production Example 1), << Evaluation 1 >> was performed, and a result of rank A was obtained. This means that the heated aroma generating base material produced by this method [apparatus] has less fusion with time inside and between the heated aroma generating base materials, and the amount of gas released by heating. It is considered that the amount of gas suction during smoking is maintained with little change in gas. That is, the heated aroma generating substrate produced by this method [apparatus] functions as a gas generation sustaining material of the heated aroma generating substrate.

As shown in FIG. 28, the manufacturing method [apparatus] shown in FIG. 27 has been improved. The manufacturing method [apparatus] of FIG. 28 is a step of adding an aerosol former when the water content of the sheet becomes less than 50% in the sheet molding step [means] S2 in the manufacturing method [apparatus] shown in FIG. [Means] It is characterized in that S3 is further added. Specifically, the amount of propylene glycol compounded in the first wet mixing in (Production Example 2) was reduced by 10 parts by mass, and a 50% ethanol solution of propylene glycol was sprayed at a temperature of less than 40 ° C. to form a sheet. Absorbed propylene glycol to supplement the reduced propylene glycol in the first wet mixing. Here, the concentration of the alcohol solution of the aerosol former is preferably in the range of 20 to 80% from the viewpoint of the absorbability of the aerosol former and the drying property of the alcohol. If the concentration is high, it is difficult to absorb, and if the concentration is low, it takes time to dry the alcohol. The temperature at which the aerosol is absorbed is preferably 20 to 50 ° C. in terms of the absorbability of the aerosol former. If the temperature is too high, the aerosol former evaporates violently, and if the temperature is too low, it becomes difficult to absorb.

Since the dispersion state in the second wet mixing was good, the absorption of propylene glycol in this step [means] was carried out promptly. The 0.5 mm thick aroma generating substrate produced by this method [apparatus] was also cut to the same size as (Production Example 2) to prepare an aroma cartridge, and << Evaluation 1 >> was performed. The result of rank A was obtained, and it was clarified that the heated aroma generating sheet produced by this method [apparatus] also functions as a gas generation sustaining material of the heated aroma generating substrate.

A common improvement in the manufacturing methods [equipment] of FIGS. 27 and 28 is that the mixing and dispersion of the non-tobacco material and the aerosol former have been improved. In view of this point, the manufacturing process [means] of the aroma generating base material to be heated shown in FIG. 29 has found a manufacturing method [equipment] that does not go through the mixing and dispersing steps [means] of the non-tobacco material and the aerosol former. ..

That is, it is produced by the wet mixing step [means] M1 for producing a slurry of the non-tobacco material by mixing the dried and crushed non-tobacco material for producing the gas generation sustained material with pure water, and the wet mixing step [means]. Paper-making step [means] S1 for producing a water-containing sheet from the slurry, sheet forming step [means] and S2 for compressing or casting the water-containing sheet to process the sheet, and sheet forming step [means] Aerosolformer, binder or thickener, crosslinked PVP, fragrance, non-tobacco extract, β on the sheet produced in the drying step [means] S3 and the drying step [means] to reduce the amount of water to less than 50% by mass. -Absorption and adsorption process in which a concentrated solution of cyclodextrin, microcrystalline cellulose, water discharged in the sheet forming process [means], and an alcohol and pure water mixture of materials selected from antibacterial preservatives are applied or immersed. [Means] S4 and a drying step [means] S5 for producing a heated aroma generating sheet by drying the sheet produced in the absorption and adsorption step [means], and a sheet for cutting or bending the heated aroma generating sheet. A substrate to generate aroma to be heated is produced from the processing step [means] H1.

A specific example of this manufacturing method [device] is shown in (Manufacturing Example 3).

(Manufacturing Example 3)
Wood fiber 50 parts by mass Dried black tea leaves 50 parts by mass Water 5000 parts by mass or more were mixed to prepare a slurry.

This slurry was cast into a sheet having a thickness of 0.5 mm. The remaining water of the cast was concentrated and stored, and used in the next step [means].

The above sheet is dried, and per 100 parts by mass of the sheet,
Polypropylene glycol 10 parts by mass Glycerin 20 parts by mass Carboxymethyl cellulose sodium salt 2 parts by mass Mensole (50% ethanol solution) 3 parts by mass 50 parts by mass of concentrated water of cast residue was added and dried to prepare a sheet.

As for the produced sheet, in the same manner as in (Production Example 2), a heated aroma generator and an aroma cartridge using the same were prepared, and << evaluation 1 >> was performed. As a result, a result of rank A was obtained. It was clarified that the heated aroma generating sheet produced by the method [apparatus] also functions as a gas generation sustaining material for the heated aroma generating substrate.

The conventional manufacturing method [equipment] has been characterized in that a slurry of non-tobacco material or the like is prepared and a sheet for generating a fragrance to be heated is produced by papermaking. However, as shown in FIG. Since good results were obtained with the method [device] of absorbing aerosol formers, fragrances, binders, etc. into a water-impregnated sheet produced by papermaking a slurry of tobacco material only, papermaking is performed from slurries of various materials. As a result of examining a manufacturing method [apparatus] that does not require a papermaking process [means], the method [apparatus] shown in FIG. 30 was found. It is characterized in that a large shearing force and compressive force such as a triple roll are applied to a mixture such as a non-tobacco material.

That is, the non-tobacco material preparation steps [means] Z1 and 2 for drying and crushing the non-tobacco material, and at least the fragrance and / or the non-tobacco material extract and the crosslinked PVP and / or β-cyclodextrin are mixed with alcohol. The fragrance and / or non-tobacco extract dissolving step [means] M1 for retaining the fragrance and / or non-tobacco extract in crosslinked PVP and / or β-cyclodextrin, and at least an aerosol former and a binder or thickener. Aerosolformer dissolving step [means] M2 to be mixed with pure water, material produced by non-tobacco material preparation step [means], fragrance and / or material produced by non-tobacco extract dissolving step [means], A wet mixing step [means] M3 for mixing the materials produced in the aerosolformer melting step [means] and a sheet forming step for producing a heated aroma generating sheet by compressing the materials manufactured in the wet mixing step [means]. [Means] A method [apparatus] for producing a heated aroma generating base material from S1 and a sheet processing step [means] H1 for cutting or bending a heated aroma generating sheet.

A specific example of this manufacturing method [device] is shown in (Manufacturing Example 4).

(Manufacturing Example 4)
Non-tobacco material preparation steps for drying and crushing non-tobacco material [Means] In Z1 and Z2, tea leaves are used as non-tobacco material, dried in an oven at 70 ° C., and then a stirring type crusher is used. It is ground and passed through an 80 mesh sieve to prepare a non-tobacco material having a water content of 2% by mass.

Step of Dissolving Menthol [Means] In M1, menthol, a lower alcohol, and a water-insoluble crosslinked polymer are weighed and mixed to dissolve menthol. It is preferable to dissolve menthol in a lower alcohol, then add a water-insoluble crosslinked polymer and mix. Mixing menthol, a lower alcohol, and a water-insoluble crosslinked polymer has the effect of suppressing the dissipation of menthol.

Here, the menthol is not limited to that obtained from a natural product, and a synthetic product can also be used. In addition, light weight, mint, peppermint oil, and other materials containing menthol may be used.

The lower alcohol is a solvent that dissolves menthol, and ethyl alcohol is particularly preferably used.

The water-insoluble crosslinked polymer is intended to be a non-crosslinked polymer that is soluble in water and is crosslinked to become insoluble in water and swell. Of course, it is preferable that it does not dissolve in lower alcohol and swells, and such a substance is selected. Such a water-insoluble crosslinked polymer has a hydrophilic portion and a hydrophobic portion, and the hydrophilic portion contributes to swelling, and the hydrophilic portion is oriented toward menthol to suppress the dissolution of menthol. Conceivable. Preferred examples of the hydrophilic crosslinked polymer include crosslinked PVP, crosslinked polysaccharide in which a water-soluble polysaccharide is subjected to epoxy cross-linking, ester cross-linking, and ether cross-linking to make it water-insoluble. In particular, when ethanol and crosslinked PVP were used together with menthol, the effect of significantly suppressing the dissipation of menthol was observed.

It is sufficient to add a target amount of menthol to the desired flavor, but the menthol content in the aroma-generating substrate to be heated is preferably 0.1 to 10 mass, preferably 0.2 to 5 mass. It is more preferable to have.

In forming the base material for generating aroma to be heated, the amount of the hydrophilic crosslinked polymer added is preferably 10 to 2000 parts by mass, more preferably 50 to 600 parts by mass with respect to 100 parts by mass of menthol.

In order to exert the effect of suppressing the dissipation of menthol, it is preferable that the hydrophilic crosslinked polymer is present in an amount of 2% by mass or more, and more preferably 4% by mass or more in the substrate for generating aroma to be heated. .. By presenting such an amount, long-term storage is possible while suppressing the dissipation of menthol, and the refreshing sensation of menthol can be enjoyed even after long-term storage. Further, the content of the hydrophilic crosslinked polymer in the base material for generating aroma to be heated is preferably 20% by mass or less, and more preferably 10% by mass or less. When it is 10% by mass or less, it is possible to maintain the flavor caused by non-plant-derived polyphenols and the like.

The lower alcohol used is preferably 50 parts by mass or more with respect to 100 parts by mass of menthol. Further, when the amount is 100 parts by mass or more, the hydrophilic crosslinked polymer can be sufficiently mixed while dissolving the menthol. When it is 2000 parts by mass or less, the residual lower alcohol can be reduced in the post-process [means], and the efficient manufacturing process [means] can be achieved.

From the above, as an example,
100 parts by mass of menthol 200 parts by mass of ethyl alcohol Weigh 200 parts by mass of polyvinylpolypyrrolidone, dissolve menthol in ethyl alcohol to obtain a menthol ethyl alcohol solution, add crosslinked PVP to the menthol ethyl alcohol solution, and stir and mix. Obtained a menthol / ethyl alcohol / cross-linked PVP mixture.

Next, in the step [means] M2 for dissolving a material such as an aerosol former, the aerosol former, flavor additive, preservative, binder, thickener and the like are dissolved in pure water.

Here, examples of the aerosol former include glycerin, propylene glycol, sorbitol, triethylene glycol, lactic acid, diacetin (glycerin diacetate), triacetin (glycerin triacetate), triethylene glycol diacetate, triethyl citrate, and myristic acid. Isopropyl, methyl stearate, dimethyl dodecandionate, dimethyl tetradecanesandioate and the like can be used. In particular, glycerin and propylene glycol are preferably used. These are preferably used in an amount of 1 to 80% by mass, more preferably 10 to 40% by mass, based on the base material for generating aroma to be heated.

Flavors that add flavor are used as needed, including extracts of mint, cocoa, coffee, tea and the like.

In addition, an antibacterial preservative for food can be added as needed. As the antibacterial preservative, sorbic acid, potassium sorbate, benzoic acid, sodium benzoate and the like can be used.

As a binder or thickener, rubber such as guar gum, xanthan gum, arabic rubber, and locust bean gum, modified cellulose-based polymers such as hydroxypropyl cellulose, carboxymethyl cellulose, hydroxyethyl cellulose, methyl cellulose, and ethyl cellulose, starch, etc. Polysaccharides such as organic acids such as alginic acid, sodium alginate, sodium carboxymethyl cellulose, caranagin, agar, and conjugated base salts of organic acids such as pectin can be used. These may be used in combination.

From these, a 20% aqueous solution of glycerin, propylene glycol, sodium carboxymethyl cellulose, methyl cellulose, glucomannan, and xylitol was prepared.

Next, the non-tobacco material preparation steps [means] Z1 and 2, the fragrance dissolving step [means] M1, and the aerosol former melting step [means] M2, each step [means] wet mixing the materials [means] M3. Then, using a normal wet mixer, the mixture was stirred for 15 minutes while applying a shearing force with a stirring blade to prepare a composition for a non-tobacco plant-heated aerosol-generating substrate.
Dry ground tea leaves 100 parts by mass Mentor / ethyl alcohol / cross-linked PVP 25 parts by mass Glycerin 30 parts by mass Propylene glycol 30 parts by mass Carboxymethyl cellulose sodium 4 parts by mass Methyl cellulose 15 parts by mass Xylitol aqueous solution 8 parts by mass Glucomannan 1 part by mass

In the step of forming the sheet [means] S1, a three-roll mill was used. The above composition is put into a three-roll mill, 20 parts by mass of pure water is added while observing the state of the sheet, and the process [means] of pressing the doctor blade against the roll to collect the sheet-like material is repeated 8 times to finalize. Sheet-like non-tobacco plant composition was obtained. When a three-roll mill is used, a sheet having a desired thickness can be obtained by a doctor blade while kneading, dispersing, etc. by the compressive force due to being pushed between narrow rolls and the shearing force due to the difference in roll speed. A more homogeneous sheet can be produced than the sheet is produced from the slurry papermaking process [means]. In addition to the three-roll mill, a press roller and a press machine can also be preferably used.

In the sheet molding step [means] S1, non-tobacco plants, aerosol formers, fragrances, antibacterial preservatives, binders or thickeners, water and the like may be added, if necessary.

The pure water used in the present invention is preferably sterilized or from which microorganisms have been removed, but may be pure water obtained by a reverse osmosis membrane or ion exchange.

In this sheet forming step [means] S1, a sheet having a thickness of about 0.5 mm was formed. The thickness of the sheet may be in the range of 0.1 to 1.0 mm or 0.1 to 0.5 mm.

Subsequently, this 0.5 mm-thick sheet to generate aroma to be heated is cut into a sheet to generate aroma to be heated and a filling to generate aroma to be heated in the same manner as in (Production Example 2), and then processed into an aroma generator to be heated. And assembled into a fragrance cartridge. Then, when << evaluation 1 >> was performed in the same manner, a result of rank A was obtained, and the heated aroma generating sheet produced by this method [apparatus] also functions as a gas generation sustaining material for the heated aroma generating substrate. It became clear.

As described above, the heated aromatic base material using the non-tobacco material has a wide variety of compositions and properties thereof, and the non-uniformity of their mixed, dispersed, and dissolved states is the heated aerosol. It has been clarified that this is the cause of the change over time such as bleeding out of the aerosol former from the generating base material, the amount of gas released from the heated aroma generating base material decreases, and the amount of gas suction during smoking decreases. became. Therefore, it was possible to solve the change over time in the amount of gas suction by improving the non-uniformity.

Furthermore, it has been found that the cause of the problem peculiar to the aroma cartridge using the non-tobacco material is a binder or a thickener which is one of the constituent materials of the aroma generating base material to be heated using the non-tobacco material. These are added to prevent the destruction of the lumpy state that occurs due to the inability to contain a large amount of fibers and the fusion that occurs inside the aerosolized substrate to be heated and between the aerosolized substrates to be heated. When the addition amount is increased, the density of the aroma generating base material to be heated increases and the lumpy state can be maintained, but the aroma generating base material to be heated shrinks over time, and the aerosol former bleeds out. It turned out to be fierce. Therefore, as a result of examining the addition amount, addition method [apparatus], and type of the binder, it was found that the heated aroma generating base material produced by the method [apparatus] shown in FIG. 31 can solve the above-mentioned problems.

That is, a step [means] Z1 and 2 for preparing a dried and crushed non-tobacco material, and a step [means] M1 for preparing a first aqueous binder solution in which the first binder is dissolved in pure water. Step of preparing a material selected from aerosolformer, crosslinked PVP, fragrance, non-tobacco material extract, β-cyclodextrin, microcrystalline cellulose, and antibacterial preservative [Means] The materials prepared in Z4 and 5 are prepared. Manufactured by the first wet mixing step [means] M1 to be mixed, the curing step [means] Y1 for stabilizing the mixed solution produced in the first wet mixing step [means], and the curing step [means]. Step of dissolving the curing mixed solution and the second binder in pure water [Means] Second wet mixing step of mixing the second binder aqueous solution prepared in Z6 [Means] M2 and the second wet A sheet forming step [means] S1 for producing a heated aroma generating sheet by compressing from the material produced in the mixing step [means], and a sheet processing step [means] H1 for cutting or bending the heated aroma generating sheet. The aroma-generating base material to be heated, which is produced from, can stably maintain a lumpy state and does not block the gas flow path. In addition, no fusion between the substrates for generating aroma to be heated was observed over time.

(Manufacturing Example 5) is shown as a specific example of this manufacturing method [device].

(Manufacturing Example 5)
In the step [means] Z1 of drying and crushing a non-tobacco plant as a raw material, it is preferable to adjust the water content so as to facilitate absorption or carrying of aerosol former, pure water and other components, and the drying temperature is set to a drying temperature. It is preferably 60 to 80 ° C. or lower. Within this range, it is easy to reach the desired water content while avoiding the dissipation of the required flavor component. When the temperature is 65 ° C. or higher, the desired amount of water can be reached more easily, and when the temperature is 75 ° C. or lower, the required aroma component can be further prevented from being dissipated. The water content after drying and pulverization is preferably 5% by mass or less, which facilitates slurrying in the subsequent step [means]. It is more preferably 3% by mass or less. However, if the water content is not 0.1% by mass or more, the affinity with water or the like is lowered. Further, by providing a sieving step [means] for sieving the dried pulverized product, non-tobacco plants having a desired particle size can be put into the first wet mixing step [means] M3, and slurry formation is facilitated. Become.

Step of dissolving and preparing the first binder in pure water [Means] As the first binder used in Z3, celluloses, konyakumannan (glucomannan), guar gum, pectin, carrageenan, tamarin seed gum, etc. Examples thereof include arabic rubber, soybean polysaccharide, locust bean gum, carrageenan gum, xanthan gum, agar, corn starch and the like, but celluloses are preferable. Regarding the viscosity, when the solution viscosity is 300 mPa · s or more, the mixture with non-tobacco plants is good. Further, when the solution viscosity is 5000 mPa · s or more, it is suitable for binding non-tobacco plants. The solution viscosity is the measured value when a 1% aqueous solution is prepared using a Brookfield type viscometer, the rotor starts rotating at 10 to 30 rpm in an environment of 25 ° C., and the displayed value is stable. is there. Here, the measurement upper limit of the Brookfield type viscometer is 100,000 mPa · s, but the viscosity exceeding this upper limit also falls within the above-mentioned viscosity range.

Cellulose preferred as the first binder generally includes cellulose, cellulose derivatives, and metal salts thereof, but in the present invention, those that are water-soluble are particularly preferable from the viewpoint of binding non-tobacco plants. preferable. Examples of such celluloses include methyl cellulose, ethyl cellulose, carboxymethyl cellulose, carboxyethyl cellulose, hydroxymethyl cellulose, hydroxyethyl cellulose, hydroxypropyl cellulose, and metal salts such as sodium, potassium, and calcium thereof. Among these, metal salts of celluloses are more preferable, and sodium carboxymethyl cellulose is even more preferable.

Step of preparing an aerosolformer [Means] Examples of the aerosolformer used for Z4 include glycerin, propylene glycol, sorbitol, triethylene glycol, lactic acid, diacetin (glycerin diacetate), triacetin (glycerin triacetate), and tri. Ethylene glycol diacetate, triethyl citrate, isopropyl myristate, methyl stearate, dimethyl dodecandionate, dimethyl tetradecanesandioate and the like can be used, but glycerin and propylene glycol are particularly preferable. These are used in the range of 1 to 80% by mass with respect to the composition of the base material for generating aroma to be heated, and particularly preferably 10 to 40% by mass.

In the step of preparing a substance to be used other than the above [Means] Z5, in order to add flavor as necessary, it has a function of retaining flavors and flavors such as menthol, hakka, cocoa, coffee and tea extract. Antibacterial storage for foods such as crosslinked PVP, β-cyclodextrin, microcrystalline cellulose having releasability and moldability from molds, sorbic acid for storage stability, potassium sorbate, benzoic acid, sodium benzoate, etc. Agents and the like can be added.

The materials prepared as described above are mixed in the first wet mixing step [means] M1. The mixer does not require a special one. For example, the mixer may be a mixer in which the materials in the mixing tank are mixed while applying a shearing force by a stirring blade, and the mixture is kneaded using a roll mill, a kneader, or an extruder. It is also possible to further strengthen the mixture. The mixing temperature in this step [means] is preferably 40 ° C. or lower, more preferably 30 ° C. or lower, and even more preferably maintained at about 25 ° C. This is because if excessive heat is applied during mixing, the aroma component may be dissipated. Therefore, it is necessary to control the temperature of the mixing tank.

First Wet Mixing Step [Means] The first mixture produced in M1 preferably goes through a curing step [Means] Y1 which is left at a predetermined temperature and for a predetermined time, but is not an essential step [Means]. However, the binder must always be added separately in the first mixing step [means] and the second mixing step [means]. In this way, both the non-tobacco material mixture that has undergone the curing step [means] Y1 in which the binder is added in portions and the curing mixture that has undergone the curing step [means] Y1 are processed into an aromatic cartridge. For example, when smoking is evaluated using the heating type smoking tool shown in FIG. 2, both the initial suction amount and the flavor are improved. Even when the storage stability was evaluated in a hot and humid environment, there was no fusion between the inside of the heated aroma generating base material and the heated aroma generating base material, and the aroma components of aerosol smoke and non-tobacco material during initial smoking There is no change in the amount released, that is, the amount sucked over time, and no change in flavor is observed. In particular, the effect of using tea as a non-tobacco material is remarkable and preferable. However, the curing step [means] Y1 can further enhance these effects.

Curing step [Means] The temperature of Y1 is preferably 15 to 30 ° C, more preferably 18 to 24 ° C. When the temperature is 15 ° C. or higher, the above-mentioned effect of improving the flavor is enhanced, and when the temperature is 30 ° C. or lower, the change in the suction amount and the change in the flavor over time are suppressed, and the improvement in the change in flavor over time is maintained. Is. At 18-24 ° C, these effects are more pronounced. The time of the curing step [means] Y1 is preferably 72 to 336 hours, more preferably 96 to 192 hours. This is because the improvement of the flavor is observed when the time is 72 hours or more, and the change of the suction amount and the change of the flavor with time are suppressed when the time is 336 hours or less, and the improvement of the change flavor with time is maintained. For 96-192 hours, these effects are more pronounced. The curing is preferably performed by sealing the mixture after the first wet mixing. This is to prevent the flavor from dissipating.

The mixture immediately after the first wet mixing and the mixture cured after the first wet step [means] are put into the second wet mixing step [means] M2. The second wet mixing step [means] M2 is characterized in that a second binder is added and mixed. As described above, the effect of the split addition of the first binder and the second binder is, in addition to the effect of improving the initial suction amount and flavor, and reducing the change in suction amount and flavor with time, in addition to the sheet molding step [means]. ] It becomes easy to mold into a desired form in H1. Further, it is easier to mix than the addition in the first step [means], the time until the viscosity of the mixture becomes uniform can be shortened, and the viscosity can be easily adjusted.

As the second binder, like the first binder, cellulose, konjak mannan (glucomannan), guar gum, pectin, carrageenan, tamarin seed gum, arabic gum, soybean polysaccharide, locust bean gum, karaya gum, xanthan gum, Agar, starch, corn starch and the like can be used, but polysaccharides other than celluloses are preferable. As for the viscosity, as with the first binder, when the solution viscosity is 300 mPa · s or more, the mixture with non-tobacco plants is good. Further, when the solution viscosity is 5000 mPa · s or more, it is suitable for binding non-tobacco plants. This viscosity was also measured by the method [apparatus] described above. Here, the measurement upper limit of the Brookfield type viscometer is 100,000 mPa · s, but the viscosity exceeding this upper limit also falls within the above-mentioned viscosity range.

As the second binder, polysaccharides are preferably used. Among the polysaccharides, it is particularly preferable to use those that are water-soluble or that swell or gel with water. By using such a material, the molded base material for generating aroma to be heated remains in a lumpy state, the molding processability is improved, and the sheet is broken or the non-tobacco material is dropped in the sheet molding step [means] H1. Decrease. Examples of such polysaccharides include glucomannan, guar gum, pectin, carrageenan, locust bean gum, and agar. When adding, it is preferable to make these solution viscosities higher than the solution viscosity of the first binder. By using the binder in this way, the processability in the sheet forming step [means] 11 is further improved. Of these, glucomannan is the most preferable.

Also in this second wet mixing step [means] M2, if necessary, flavors such as menthol, hakka, cocoa, coffee, and tea extract, and crosslinked PVP and β-cyclodextrin having a function of retaining the flavors. , Microcrystalline cellulose having releasability and moldability from molds, etc., antibacterial preservatives for foods such as sorbic acid, potassium sorbate, benzoic acid, sodium benzoate for storage stability, etc. ] It may be preferable to use a manufacturing method [equipment] for preparing and adding in the same manner as Z5.

When the materials prepared as described above are mixed in the second wet mixing step [means] M2, a normal wet mixer can be used as in the first wet mixing step [means] M1. For example, a mixer in which the materials in the mixing tank are mixed while applying a shearing force with a stirring blade may be used, or kneading may be performed using a roll mill, a kneader, or an extruder to further strengthen the mixing. The mixing temperature in this step [means] is preferably 40 ° C. or lower, more preferably 30 ° C. or lower, and even more preferably maintained at about 25 ° C. This is because if excessive heat is applied during mixing, the aroma component may be dissipated. Therefore, it is necessary to control the temperature of the mixing tank.

Next, the composition of the aroma generating base material to be heated containing the non-tobacco material produced by the second wet mixing M2 is put into the sheet molding step [means] H1 and molded into a desired form. In order to use this composition as a base material for generating aroma to be heated, sheet molding processing such as roll molding or press molding is preferable, but the composition is not limited thereto. A method [device] of forming a rod by passing through an orifice by pressurization and a method [device] of crushing and granulating after drying may be adopted.

Here, a sheet molding process suitable for producing a base material for generating aroma to be heated will be described. As one of the methods [equipment], a sheet was formed using a three-roll mill. By using a 3-roll mill, it is possible to obtain a sheet with a desired thickness by a doctor blade while kneading and dispersing by the compressive force due to being pushed between narrow rolls and the shearing force due to the speed difference between rolls. It is particularly preferable for sheet molding such as the composition of the present invention in which a wide variety of materials having different properties are mixed. Further, it may be produced by using a press roller or a press machine in combination. As described above, since the three-roll mill is processed into a sheet shape while performing kneading and dispersion, it complements the first and second wet mixing, and a more preferable mixing and dispersing state can be obtained. Therefore, when a three-roll mill is used in the second wet mixing step [means] M2, the second wet mixing step [means] M2 and the sheet forming step [means] H1 are the same without any distinction on the apparatus. It means that mixing and molding are done in the process.

In this way, in sheet molding using a three-roll mill, mixing and dispersion can be performed. Therefore, if necessary, non-tobacco materials, aerosol formers, binders or thickeners, fragrances, crosslinked PVPs, β-cyclodextrins, etc. It is also possible to use a production method [apparatus] in which microcrystalline cellulose, an antibacterial preservative, pure water and the like are added.

In order to clarify the characteristics of the method [equipment] for producing the aroma generating base material to be heated, which is to add the first binder and the second binder in portions, the materials used are common. , The form of the base material for generating aroma to be heated was limited to the filling material, and was evaluated in comparison with the conventional production method [equipment]. The present invention will be described with reference to Production Examples and Examples.

After the curing step [means] Y1, the apparent volume increased by about 1.5 times. Curing step [Means] When the second curing mixture after Y1 was confirmed, it was observed that the release of crushed tea was less than that before curing, leading to a stable and uniform dispersion of tea. it is conceivable that. The mixture prepared by the curing step [means] Y1 was put into the second wet mixing step [means] M2 to prepare a heated aroma generator in the same manner as in (Production Example A).

(Comparative manufacturing example)
100 parts by mass of xylitol 400 parts by mass of water was stirred and mixed to obtain xylitol / aqueous solution.

Next, black tea leaves were dried at 70 ° C., crushed, and passed through an 80 mesh sieve. The water content was 2% by mass. Similarly, the dried Jiaogulan product was crushed and passed through an 80 mesh sieve.

A sheet for generating aroma to be heated was prepared. However, there was a problem in forming a sheet when molding using a three-roll mill. Moreover, although it was made into a sheet, the evaluation A could not be measured.

The heated fragrance generating sheet thus produced is cut into a rectangle having a length of 150 mm and a width of 240 mm and supplied to a rotary cutter to form a shape having a width of 1.5 mm, a length of 240 mm, and a thickness of 0.3 mm.

(Example A)
Using the aroma generator to be heated produced in (Production Example A), an aroma cartridge of a type in which the aroma generator to be heated is bonded to a mouthpiece provided with a support member and a filter shown in FIG. 13 was produced. As the support member, a PE tube having a through hole having an inner diameter of 4.0 mm was used in a cylinder having an outer diameter of 6.9 mm. As the filter, a filter having a length of 23 mm, which was formed by forming an acetyl cellulose fiber into a columnar shape and wrapped with a paper having a basis weight of 34 g / m ² , was used. The cartridge outer body was formed by using paper having a basis weight of 38 g / m ² and winding it around two and a half turns so as to have an inner diameter of 6.9 mm and gluing it. As the cartridge exterior, if a paper cylinder formed by winding paper having a basis weight of 32 to 45 g / m ² for two and a half turns is used, the portion of the heated aroma generator is heated. It is suitable as an aromatic cartridge to be used by inserting it into the heating element of. Then, a support member and a filter are inserted from one end of the cartridge outer body to form a mouthpiece, and after inserting a heated aroma generator from the other end, the basis weight is 40 g / m ² so as to overlap the mouthpiece portion. Paper was wrapped around to make an aromatic cartridge. However, the filter is a filter in which a cavity, which is a suction optimization means, is not formed in order to clarify the influence of the manufacturing method [equipment] on the aroma generating substrate to be heated, that is, the difference in the function of the gas generation sustaining material. It was used.

(Example B)
An fragrance cartridge was produced in the same manner as in (Example A) except that the heated fragrance generator produced in (Production Example B) was used.

(Comparative Example)
An fragrance cartridge was produced in the same manner as in (Example A), except that the heated fragrance generator produced in (Comparative Production Example) was used. However, when producing the fragrance cartridge, it was difficult to produce the fragrance generating filler to be heated because it was too soft.

The heated fragrance generating sheet and fragrance cartridge produced as described above were evaluated as follows. In addition to the following evaluations, << Evaluation 1 >> was also performed.

≪Evaluation A≫
The tensile strength test of the aroma generating sheet to be heated was performed. For the tensile strength test, a commonly used tensile strength tester was used. As a sample, a sheet for generating aroma to be heated was cut into a width of 10.0 cm and a length of 22.0 cm, and the distance between the clamps of the tensile strength test was 20.0 cm, and the crosshead speed was 10 cm / min. The test environment is room temperature 20 ° C. and humidity 50%. The breaking strength was evaluated and the heated aroma generating sheet produced by each manufacturing method [equipment] was evaluated, and the breaking strength was 3.9 N / mm ² or more, preferably 5.0 N / mm ² or more. It was found that it is comprehensively preferable that the molding process, the production of the aromatic cartridge, the initial suction amount, the initial flavor, and the change in suction amount and flavor with time.

≪Evaluation B≫
As the heat-not-burn smoking device used, Aikos (registered trademark), which is a heat-not-burn electronic cigarette device manufactured by Philip Morris International, of the method shown in FIG. 2 (A) was used. This heating element has a width of 4.5 mm, a length to the tip of 12 mm, and a thickness of 0.4 mm. Since the inner diameter of the chamber is 7 mm, the outer diameter of the fragrance cartridge is set to 6.9 mm so that the fragrance cartridge can be inserted there without any gap. The heating element generates heat by the electric power supplied from the battery provided in the main body of the heat-not-burn electronic cigarette, and reaches about 350 ° C. With the built-in control system, the conventional electronic cigarette cartridge consumes one cigarette after 14 suctions. When the smoking cigarette cartridge of this embodiment is inserted, the fragrance cartridge portion that appears from the downstream side to the outside of the main body of the electronic cigarette device is about 20 mm. Then, the fragrance cartridges produced in this example and the comparative example were inserted into the chamber of the electronic cigarette device, and a smoking test was conducted. Both the amount of suction and the flavor were sensory evaluations in the oral cavity during smoking. In particular, the flavor was evaluated for the aroma of tea immediately after the production of the aromatic cartridge and after the standing of << Evaluation 1 >>. The sensory test was conducted on 5 subjects. The evaluation criteria are as follows.
Rank A: When smoking, there is a sufficient amount of suction, there is no resistance to suction, and the scent of tea can be enjoyed.
Rank B: When smoking, the amount of suction is insufficient, there is resistance to suction, and the scent of tea is at an unsatisfactory level.

≪Evaluation C≫
Dropout of filler after smoking was evaluated. In the evaluation method [device], the heated aroma generator side of the aroma cartridge after smoking was directed vertically downward, and the presence or absence of the heated aroma generating filler was observed. The evaluation criteria are as follows.
Rank A: No falling objects can be seen Rank B: Some of the filling material has fallen

The test results are shown in Table 1. As is clear from Table 1, the binder is used for all of the molding process, the production of the aroma cartridge, the initial suction amount and flavor, the change in suction amount and flavor with time, and the fusion of the aroma-generating packing to be heated over time. The effect of dividing and adding is recognized, and the curing can further enhance the effect. Therefore, it is clear that the heated aroma generating base material to which the binder is separately added and the heated aroma generating base material produced by further performing the curing step [means] function as a gas generation sustaining material of the aroma cartridge. is there.

As described above, the manufacturing method [equipment] affects the internal structure of the aroma generating base material to be heated, and the gas generation of the fragrance cartridge produced by using the aroma generating base material to be heated produced by the appropriate manufacturing method [equipment] is sustained. It was confirmed that it was functioning as a material. In the present invention, we have further found a material that functions as a continuous gas generation material. It is an inorganic particle.

The effect of the inorganic particles will be described with specific examples. For this reason, (Production Example 1) is adopted as the conventional manufacturing method [equipment], and various inorganic substances affecting the gas generation sustainability of the heated aroma generating base material produced by this manufacturing method [equipment]. The effect of particles was evaluated as follows.

The heated fragrance generator and the fragrance cartridge are assembled according to (Production Example 1). In this example, as shown in the spraying step [means] H2 of FIG. 32, the fragrance is produced in (Production Example 1). The heated fragrance generating sheet was cut into a length of 12 mm × a width of 1.5 mm (thickness: 0.5 mm) to prepare a heated fragrance generating filler, and then various inorganic particles were added in a predetermined amount to heat the fragrance. A spraying and sprinkling step [means] was added so as to adhere uniformly to the surface of the generated filling. The purpose of such a step [means] is to uniformly adhere the inorganic particles to the surface of the aroma-generating filling to be heated. Further, in this step [means], in order to confirm that the inorganic particles were attached to the surface of the aroma-generating filling to be heated, the surface was observed with a microscope. Next, the heated fragrance-generating filling to which the inorganic particles were attached was processed into a heated fragrance generator and assembled into an fragrance cartridge according to (Production Example 1). Furthermore, in order to clarify the effect of the inorganic particles, the filling rate was increased. The aromatic cartridge thus produced was subjected to << Evaluation 1 >>. Further, the following << Evaluation 2 >> was performed using the heat-not-burn electronic cigarette device described in << Evaluation B >>.

≪Evaluation 2≫
After confirming the dirt adhering to the heating element 113 when the aroma cartridge was used as shown in FIG. 2C, the following evaluation was performed. First, using the fragrance cartridge of Comparative Example 1, suction was performed 14 times for each cartridge, and stains adhering to the heating element when the suction of 10, 20, 30, 40, and 50 pieces was completed was removed. Wipe off with ethanol-impregnated gauze and record the degree of contamination. Then, the stains obtained by sucking 50 various fragrance cartridges of this example prepared by using the fragrance generating filler to be heated with various inorganic particles adhered to the surface were collected in the same manner as in Comparative Example 1, and in Comparative Example 1. The degree of dirt recorded was compared and evaluated. As the evaluation index, the degree of stain when 50 various fragrance cartridges of this example were sucked was set to the number of stains corresponding to the stain when sucked using the fragrance cartridge of Comparative Example 1. Therefore, the smaller the number, the more preferable.

When the filling rate of the filling material in this case was measured, it was 81%.

(Example V)

(Comparative Example I)
From the heated fragrance generating sheet prepared in (Production Example 1), 0.29 g of the heated fragrance generating filler cut as described above was used as it was to prepare a heated fragrance generating body. Then, an fragrance cartridge was assembled from the heated fragrance generator and the mouthpiece. When the filling rate of the filling material in this case was measured, it was 81%.

The above evaluation results are shown in Table 2. As is clear from the table, it can be seen that inorganic particles having a wide particle size function as a continuous gas generation material regardless of the material. As is clear from the results of << Evaluation 1 >>, the filler for generating aroma to be heated does not fuse with time, and the amount of gas released, that is, the amount of gas suction and the flavor change little with time. The reason for exhibiting such an effect is not clear, but it is considered as follows. When the inorganic particles are present on the surface of the filler, the inorganic particles act as spacers to reduce the contact area between the fillers and prevent the fillers from being fused by the bleed-out of the aerosol former even when the fillers are kept at a high temperature for a long time. It is considered that the inorganic particles have an effect of suppressing the bleed-out of the aerosol former.

Furthermore, as is clear from << Evaluation 2 >>, it was confirmed that the inorganic particles also have an effect of preventing contamination of the heating element. In particular, when the average particle size of the added inorganic powder is 1 to 50 μm, a good effect is obtained, and when it is 5 μm or more, the effect of preventing contamination is further enhanced. When the amount of the inorganic powder to be added is 0.01 to 5 parts by mass, a good effect is obtained, and when it is 0.1 parts by mass or more, the effect of preventing contamination is further enhanced. The reason why the inorganic particles have the effect of preventing the heating element is not clear, but it is presumed as follows. Inorganic substances are difficult to decompose by heating, inorganic particles polish the surface and remove contaminants when the fragrance cartridge is attached to and detached from the heating element, and the inorganic particles come into contact with the heating element surface and the heating element generating filler. For example, reducing the area.

In order to obtain such an effect, it is preferable that the inorganic particles have an average particle diameter of 1 to 100 μm. When the average particle size is less than 1 μm, the effect of the inorganic particles is reduced. On the other hand, when it is 5 μm or more, the effect of the inorganic particles is enhanced, which is more preferable. For the same reason, it is more preferably 10 μm or more. Further, the larger the particle size, the lower the filling rate of the filling material, but if it is 50 μm or less, the effect of the inorganic particles is large and the minimum required filling rate can be secured.

Here, the minimum filling rate is closely related to the suction amount of gas generated by heating. When the filling rate is less than 60%, the amount of gas released sufficiently by heating is small, the amount of gas sucked by the smoker is insufficient, and the sucking comfort becomes insufficient. Therefore, a filling rate of 65% or more, more preferably 70% or more is required. On the contrary, when the filling rate exceeds 90%, there is a problem that the gaps between the fillings are small, smoking is difficult, and insertion into the heating element is also difficult.

It should be noted that such a filling rate can be evaluated by a method of calculating the area ratio occupied by the heated aroma generating base material in the cross section of the heated aroma generating body. It was determined by evaluating the filling and unfilled voids using a digital microscope. A digital microscope (manufactured by KEYENCE: VHX-2000) was used, and the magnification was set to 100 times and projected onto a display. The range for analyzing the image is the area where only the filling and the void portion without the filling appear. In this case, the diameter of the observed sample was 7.0 mm, the width was 3.5 mm, and the length was 2.6 mm. In the above range, the attached software was used for image analysis, and the "extraction mode" was set to "brightness" in the "automatic measurement mode". For the measurement, "standard" was selected, "extraction parameter" was set to "bright", and "threshold value" was selected so that the filling material to be observed and the void were separated. The filling rate was defined as the ratio of the filling material to the entire measurement area.

The average particle size of the inorganic particles in the present invention was determined by a wet method using a laser diffraction / scattering type particle size distribution measuring device. In the present invention, Microtrack MT3300III manufactured by Microtrack Bell Co., Ltd. was used. The average particle size of the present invention refers to the median diameter D _50, which is 50% by accumulating volume-based distributions in the range of 0.02 μm to 2000 μm.

Furthermore, the presence of the inorganic particles in the present invention was confirmed not only by microscopic observation in the manufacturing process [means] but also by observation of the filling surface using an optical microscope or an electron microscope. Furthermore, it was confirmed by microscopic or electron microscopic observation of the residue obtained by thermally decomposing the filling. It is based on the observation results of about 10 images when one field of view is 100 μm × 100 μm at an appropriate magnification. Furthermore, it was confirmed by a scanning electron microscope equipped with an X-ray microanalysis (XMA) that the residual inorganic particles were added inorganic particles.

The amount of the inorganic particles added must be at least 0.001 part by mass with respect to 100 parts by mass of the filling, and more preferably 0.01 part by mass or more, more preferably 0.05, in order for the effect to be exhibited. It is even more preferable that the amount is by mass or more. On the contrary, if it exceeds 10 parts by mass with respect to 100 parts by mass of the filling, the filling rate of the filling decreases, which affects the amount of gas suction and the flavor. From such a viewpoint, it is more preferably 5 parts by mass or less, and further preferably 2 parts by mass or less.

The inorganic substances that can be used as the inorganic particles of the present invention are not particularly limited, but are metal chlorides such as sodium chloride and potassium chloride, and metal oxidations such as magnesium oxide, calcium oxide, titanium oxide, iron oxide, and alumina. Alone, metal carbonates such as magnesium carbonate and calcium carbonate, metal sulfates such as magnesium sulfate and calcium sulfate, metal phosphates such as calcium phosphate, and titanates such as potassium titanate and magnesium titanate. Alternatively, two or more can be selected and used. Further, silicon oxide such as zeolite, colloidal silica and fumed silica, and natural products such as diatomaceous earth and vermiculite can also be used. In particular, magnesium carbonate, calcium carbonate, silicon oxide, and alumina are preferable.

As described above, the inorganic particles can be attached to the heated aroma generating base material in the spraying step [means] H2 of FIG. 32, but can also be attached in the spraying step [means] S4 of FIG. Further, as shown in FIGS. 28 to 31, it is also possible to add inorganic particles to the heated aroma generating composition to prepare a heated aroma generating base material containing the inorganic particles. In the case of this method [device], it has been confirmed that the inorganic particles are not present only on the surface of the aroma generating substrate to be heated, but the effect of the inorganic particles is exhibited. Therefore, the reason why the inorganic particles function as a gas generation sustaining material is that the inorganic particles not only reduce the contact area as a spacer that inhibits the fusion between the heated aromatic base materials, but also the heated aromatic base material. It is presumed that it hinders the movement of constituent materials such as aerosol formers, non-tobacco materials, and binders inside. This speculation is that when inorganic particles are used as a filler in polymer materials, they act as cross-linking points, with chemical properties such as heat resistance and chemical resistance, and physical properties such as tensile strength and elastic modulus. It is based on improving.

As described above, according to the present invention, by improving the manufacturing method [device], the heated fragrance generator in which the heated fragrance generating base material functions as a gas generation sustaining material and the heated fragrance in which the inorganic particles function as a gas generation sustaining material. The generator can be provided. Therefore, as shown in FIG. 33, it is possible to provide an aromatic cartridge that does not require the mouthpiece to be provided with gas suction optimization means. Of course, it is also possible to provide an aroma cartridge in which a heated aroma generator provided with a gas generation sustaining material and a mouthpiece provided with a gas suction optimization means are combined.

Since the present invention is a harmless fragrance derived from tobaccos belonging to the genus Tobacco of the family Tobacco, plants belonging to the same genus, and plants that do not contain the components thereof, not only those who have experienced flame smoking but also smokers for the first time. In addition, since it is possible to provide an aromatic cartridge that allows you to enjoy smoking as if you were smoking, you can enjoy smoking not only for the smoker himself but also for non-smokers around him without adversely affecting his health. , A new smoking tool that brings alpha waves into the brain, has a healing effect, and helps improve health and beauty. Moreover, since it is an aromatic cartridge equipped with a gas suction optimizing means and a gas generation sustaining material, it has a feature that the suction amount and the amount of smoke and aroma components do not change even if it is stored for a long period of time. Therefore, the technique relating to the fragrance cartridge of the present invention may be widely applied to incense sticks, incense sticks, incense sticks, incense sticks, aromatherapy and the like.
