Description
本發明係有關用於電熱吸煙系統之含辨識資訊煙品。本發明又有關用來收容此一物件之電熱吸煙系統。該物件可為清潔物件或煙品。
多數習知文獻,例如US-A-5 060 671,US-A-5 388 594,US-A-5 505 214,WO-A-2004/043175,EP-A-1 618 803,EP-A 1 736 065及WO-A-2007/131449揭示具有多數優點之電熱吸煙系統。一項優點係其等大幅減少二手煙,然而允許吸煙者選擇性暫停並重新開始吸煙。
電熱吸煙系統通常包含諸如電池之電源,其連接於加熱器以對氣溶膠形成基體加熱,形成供給吸煙者之氣溶膠。於操作中,此等電熱吸煙系統通常提供高功率脈波至加熱器以提供操作所需溫度範圍,並釋放揮發性混合物。電熱吸煙系統可再使用,並可配置成收容可拋棄煙品,其含有氣溶膠形成基體,以形成氣溶膠。
研發來用於電熱吸煙系統之煙品通常因氣味藉由受控加熱氣溶膠形成基體之產生及釋放而特別設計,其無發生於點燃端香煙及其他煙品之燃燒。因此,設計用於電熱吸煙系統之煙品之構造可異於點燃端香煙之構造。使用具有電熱吸煙系統之點燃端香煙可能對使用者造成不佳的吸煙經驗,亦可能損害該系統,此乃因為例如煙品無法與該系統相容。此外,可有多數不同煙品,各配置來配合該系統使用,然而各對使用者提供不同的吸煙經驗。
某些習知電熱吸煙系統包含偵測器,其可偵測煙品收容於電熱吸煙系統中之存在情形。本發明之目的在於提供一種改進之電熱吸煙系統,其包含提供吸煙者額外功能之偵測器,以及改進之配合此一系統使用之物件
根據本發明第一態樣,提供一種電熱吸煙系統,包括:煙品,該系統包含印於其上之辨識資訊;凹穴,用以至少局部收容煙品;至少一個加熱元件;電源,用以供電至該至少一個加熱元件;電硬體,連接於該電源及該至少一個加熱元件;以及偵測器,可偵測該煙品於該凹穴之存在情形,並根據印於該煙品上之該辨識資訊,區分該煙品與其他配置來配合該吸煙系統使用之物件。
根據本發明第一態樣,亦提供一種電熱吸煙系統,用以收容配置成配合該吸煙系統使用之煙品,該系統包括:凹穴,用以至少局部收容該煙品,該煙品包含印於其上之辨識資訊;至少一個加熱元件;電源,用以供電至該至少一個加熱元件;電硬體,連接於該電源及該至少一個加熱元件;以及偵測器,可偵測該煙品於該凹穴之存在情形,並根據印於該煙品上之該辨識資訊,區分該煙品與其他配置來配合該吸煙系統使用之物件。
偵測器不僅可偵測煙品於凹穴中之存在情形,亦可區分一物件與其他物件。這根據對物件之辨識資訊來進行。較佳地,電熱吸煙系統可再使用。較佳地,各煙品係可拋式。
於操作期間,煙品及其氣溶膠形成基體可完全收容於凹穴中,並因此完全容納於電熱吸煙系統內。於此情況下,使用者可於電熱吸煙系統之吸口上吸煙。替代地,於操作期間,煙品可局部收容於凹穴中,俾氣溶膠形成基體完全或局部容納於電熱吸煙系統內。於此情況下,使用者可直接在煙品上或電熱吸煙系統之吸口上抽吸。
較佳地,該電硬體配置成當偵測器偵出凹穴中的煙品時,電熱吸煙系統啟動。該系統可在電硬體連接電源及至少一個加熱元件時啟動。替代地或額外地,該系統可在自備用模式切換至主動模式時啟動。替代地或額外地,該系統可.進一步包括一開關,當開關通電時,其可啟動,俾僅在偵出凹穴中物件時,對至少一個加熱元件加熱。系統之啟動可額外地或替代地包括其他步驟。
偵測器可偵測於凹穴中是否有煙品。因此,本發明之該系統及煙品具有多數優點。例如,提供省電,因為該系統無須恆保持於主動模式,而可保持於備用模式,僅在偵出物件時切換至主動模式。此外,可在偵出煙品時,依使用者的吸煙習慣,為特定使用者最佳化所用電力。該系統亦考慮到短時間對煙品作第一口抽吸,此乃因為可在一偵出煙品時,馬上加熱該煙品。這將使用者的第一口抽吸與使用者收受到氣溶膠間的延遲減至最小。甚而,由於該系統僅在偵出有效煙品時啟動,因此,安全獲得改進。因此,除非有有效煙品,否則,加熱元件沒機會通電。
偵測器亦可配置成指示煙品何時從凹穴移除。於此情況下,該系統可配置成自主動模式切換至備用模式。替代地或額外地,若該系統包括開關,該開關即可在煙品從凹穴移除時切斷。
偵測器亦能區分諸物件,這可提供多數優點。特別是,偵測器能區分清潔物件與煙品。額外地,複數個物件可包括複數個煙品,且偵測器可配置成對配合吸煙系統使用之複數個煙品之每一者間加以區分。甚而,複數個物件可包括複數個清潔物件,且偵測器可配置成對配合吸煙系統使用之複數個清潔物件之每一者間加以區分。
較佳地,該電硬體包括可程式控制器,例如微控制器,用以控制該加熱元件之操作。於一實施例中,控制器可藉軟體程式化。替代地,該控制器可包括特定功能硬體,諸如特定功能積體電路(ASIC),其可藉由客製化特定用途之硬體內之邏輯塊組程式化。較佳地,該電硬體包括處理器。額外地,該電硬體可包括記憶體,供儲存用於特定煙品,及任選地清潔物件之加熱偏好、使用者偏好、使用者吸煙習慣或其他資訊。較佳地,所儲存資訊可依能配合吸煙系統使用之特定煙品及清潔物件更新及更換。此外,資訊亦可自吸煙系統下載。
於一例示性實施例中,該電硬體包括感測器,其偵測指示使用者抽吸之氣流。感測器可包括熱敏電阻。感測器可為電機械裝置。替代地,該感測器可為以下任一種:機械裝置、光學機械裝置及根據感測器之微電機械系統(MEMS)。於此情況下,該電硬體可配置成當感測器感測出使用者抽吸時,提供電流脈波給該至少一個加熱元件。於一替代實施例中,該系統進一步包括可手動開關,供使用者開始抽吸。
較佳地,該電硬體配置成根據偵測器所辨識之特定煙品,建立用於該至少一個加熱元件之加熱通訊協定。
加熱通訊協定可包括以下之一個或多個:加熱元件之最大操作溫度;每一抽吸之最大加熱時間;抽吸間之最少時間;各煙品之最大抽吸數;及煙品之最大總加熱時間。建立合乎特定煙品之加熱通訊協定很有利,其原因在於,特定煙品中的氣溶膠形成基體可能需要或提供具有特定加熱條件之改進吸煙經驗。如業已說明,較佳地,該電硬體可程式化,於此情況下可儲存及更新各種加熱通訊協定。
較佳地,該電硬體配置成根據偵測器所辨識之特定煙品,儲存資訊。這容許監視特定使用者所使用之各種煙品類型,以追蹤顧客偏好。該資訊可儲存於電硬體中,較佳地,於記憶體中。較佳地,該資訊可自電硬體擷取。
於一實施例中,該物件係配置來配合該系統使用之複數物件之一。於此情況下,偵測器可偵測該物件於凹穴中之存在情形,亦可根據辨識資訊區分該物件與配置來配合該吸煙系統使用之複數個物件之其他物件。複數個物件可包括複數個煙品。額外地或替代地,該等複數個物件可包括一個或多個清潔物件。
於一實施例中,該系統配置成收容複數個煙品,該等煙品包含印於其上之辨識資訊,且該系統配置成僅藉配置成配合該吸煙系統使用之複數個煙品子集來操作,該子集之各煙品可藉該偵測器,根據印於煙品上之辨識資訊區分。
以此方式,可例如藉由程式化電硬體,建立僅配合特定煙品使用之系統。該特點提供多數優點。第一,這可減少或消除配合該系統使用之偽造煙品。第二,這可容許廠商或批發商限制可配合本系統使用之煙品,這可例如說明可於不同區域或轄區購得之吸煙系統。第三,這亦可容許吸煙系統配置成配合不同煙品子集使用。例如,吸煙系統在購買時可配合第一煙品子集使用。在電硬體之更新後,吸煙系統可配合第二、較大煙品子集使用。在電硬體之又一更新後,吸煙系統可配合第三、較大煙品子集使用。
此外,不同煙品可適於配合不同清潔物件或不同清潔頻率使用。例如,特定氣溶膠形成基體可能需要特定清潔成分,以達到吸煙系統之最適清潔。因此,若吸煙系統配置成配合不同煙品子集使用,該吸煙系統即亦可配置成配合不同清潔物件子集使用。
如此,藉由提供可區分配置成配合系統使用之不同類型物件之偵測器,可提供種種優點。一優點係該系統之耗電可根據所辨識特定清潔物件或煙品最佳化。此外,該偵測器可辨識多少煙品及哪些類型之煙品須配合吸煙系統使用,其可指示何時或多久該吸煙系統須清潔,及該吸煙系統須藉哪一種清潔物件清潔。該吸煙系統亦可根據辨識資訊區分不同類型之煙品、不同類型之清潔物件及相同類型煙品之不同批號。
於一實施例中,該偵測器包括光學感測器,其包含至少一種發光體及至少一種光感測器。於一實施例中,該偵測器可包括一種發光體及一種光感測器。於其他實施例中,該偵測器可包括形式為一維(例如線性)光感測器陣列之一個以上光感測器。於另外實施例中,該偵測器可包括形式為二維光感測器陣列之一個以上光感測器。
印於煙品上之辨識資訊包括以下之一種或多種:煙品類型、氣溶膠形成基體類型、製造日、產地、批號及其他產製細節及使用日。
辨識資訊可以多種形式印在物件上。可使用各種印刷油墨,其包含可見油墨、紫外線(UV)油墨、紅外線(IR)油墨、磷光油墨、氟油墨及金屬油墨。於一實施例中,辨識資訊包括複數線及空白。此等線及空白可大致繞物件之外周延伸。此等線及空白可具有固定寬度或可變寬度。辨識資訊可編碼成包括複數線及空白之一維條碼。於另一實施例中,辨識資訊包括二維陣列。二維陣列可包括資料矩陣或任何其他二維條碼。
於一既定物件中,可使用一個或多個不同編碼方法於辨識資訊。同樣地,偵測器可包括一個或多個不同類型的感測器。
辨識資訊可配置成於加熱期間改變以指示煙品是否已吸過。可除了辨識資訊,又提供配置成於加熱期間改變之資訊。亦即,可提供二個別資訊組。替代地,辨識資訊可配置成於加熱期間改變。亦即,可提供單組資訊。例如,資訊可印在物件上,且於加熱期間,資訊之外觀可改變或資訊可完全消失。
又,配置成於加熱期間改變之資訊可配置成指示已使用多少物件。例如,資訊可指示煙品已加熱多久或已抽吸多少口。
該至少一個加熱元件可包括單一加熱元件。替代地,該至少一個加熱元件可包括一個以上加熱元件。該加熱元件或多數加熱元件可適當地配置成最有效地對煙品中的氣溶膠形成基體加熱。
該至少一個加熱元件較佳地包括電阻材料。適當電阻材料包含惟不限於:諸如掺雜陶瓷、電“導”陶瓷(像是例如二矽化鉬)之半導體、碳、石墨、金屬、金屬合金及由陶瓷材料和金屬材料製成之複合材料。此等複合材料可包括掺雜或非攙雜陶瓷。適當掺雜陶瓷之例子包含掺雜碳化矽。適當金屬之例子包含鈦、鋯、鉭及鉑系金屬。適當金屬合金之例子包含不鏽鋼、含鎳、鈷、鉻、鋁、鈦、鋯、鉿、鈮、鉬、鉭、鎢、錫、鎵、錳及鐵之合金及鎳、鐵、鈷、不鏽鋼系超合金、Timetal及鐵-錳-鋁系合金。於複合材料中,依所需能量轉移動力及外在物理化學性質而定,電阻材料可任選地理入、囊裝或塗覆絕緣材料或反之亦然。適當複合加熱元件之例子揭示於US-A-5 498 855,WO-A-03/095688及US-A-5 514 630。

根據本發明第二態樣,亦提供一種電熱吸煙系統,用以收容配置成配合該吸煙系統使用之清潔物件,該系統包括:凹穴,用以至少局部收容該清潔物件,該清潔物件包含編碼於其上之辨識資訊;至少一個加熱元件;電源,用以供電至該至少一個加熱元件;電硬體,連接於該電源及該至少一個加熱元件;以及偵測器,可偵測該清潔物件於該凹穴中之存在情形,並根據編碼於該清潔物件上之該辨識資訊,區分該清潔物件與配置來配合該吸煙系統使用之其他物件。
偵測器不僅可偵測清潔物件於凹穴中之存在情形,亦可區分一物件與其他物件。這根據對物件之辨識資訊來進行。較佳地,電熱吸煙系統可再使用。
較佳地,各清潔物件係可拋棄或再使用。該清潔物件可包括以下之一個或多個:用於機械式清潔之至少一清潔工具,例如刷子、布片、拭片或抹布,以及一或更多用以化學式清潔之清潔成分。
較佳地,該系統配置成當偵測器偵出凹穴中的煙品時啟動。該系統可在電硬體連接該電源及該至少一個加熱元件時啟動。替代地或額外地,該系統可在自備用模式切換至主動模式時啟動。替代地或額外地,該系統可進一步包括一開關,當開關通電時,其可啟動,俾僅在偵出凹穴中物件時,對至少一個加熱元件加熱。系統之啟動可額外地或替代地包括其他步驟。
偵測器可偵測於凹穴中是否有清潔物件。因此,本發明之該系統及清潔物件具有多數優點。例如,提供省電,此乃因為該系統無須恆保持於主動模式,而可保持於備用模式,僅在偵出清潔物件時切換至主動模式。甚而,由於該系統僅在偵出有效煙品時啟動,因此,安全獲得改進。因此,除非有有效煙品,否則,加熱元件沒機會通電。
偵測器亦可配置成指示煙品何時從凹穴移除。於此情況下,該系統可配置成自主動模式切換至備用模式。替代地或額外地,若該系統包括開關,該開關即可在煙品從凹穴移除時切斷。
偵測器亦可區分諸物件,這可提供多數優點。特別是,偵測器可區分清潔物件與煙品。額外地,複數個物件可包括複數個煙品,且偵測器可配置成對配合吸煙系統使用之複數個煙品之每一者間加以區分。甚而,複數個物件可包括複數個清潔物件,且偵測器可配置成對配合吸煙系統使用之複數個清潔物件之每一者間加以區分。
較佳地,該電硬體包括可程式控制器,例如微控制器,用以控制該加熱元件之操作。於一實施例中,控制器可藉軟體程式化。替代地,該控制器可包括特定功能硬體,諸如特定功能積體電路(ASIC),其可藉由客製化特定用途之硬體內之邏輯塊組程式化。較佳地,該電硬體包括處理器。額外地,該電硬體可包括記憶體,供儲存用於特定煙品,及任選地清潔物件之加熱偏好、使用者偏好、使用者吸煙習慣或其他資訊。較佳地,所儲存資訊可依能配合吸煙系統使用之特定煙品及清潔物件更新及更換。該資訊亦可自吸煙系統下載。

於一實施例中,該電硬體配置成根據偵測器所辨識之特定煙品,建立用於該至少一個加熱元件之加熱通訊協定。加熱通訊協定可包括以下之一個或多個:加熱元件之最大操作溫度及清潔物件之最大總加熱時間。若特定清潔物件之清潔成份於特定加熱條件下提供改進之清潔,這即可能有利。於一實施例中,加熱元件可配置成啟動清潔物件中的清潔手段,例如清潔成份。
於一實施例中,該物件係配置來配合該系統使用之複數物件之一。於此情況下,偵測器可偵測該物件於凹穴中之存在情形,亦可根據辨識資訊區分該物件與配置來配合該吸煙系統使用之複數個物件之其他物件。複數個物件可包括複數個煙品。額外地或替代地,該等複數個物件可包括一個或多個清潔物件。
不同煙品可適於配合不同清潔物件或不同清潔頻率使用。例如,特定氣溶膠形成基體可能需要特定清潔成分,以達到吸煙系統之最適清潔。因此,若吸煙系統配置成配合不同煙品子集使用,該吸煙系統即亦可配置成配合不同清潔物件子集使用。
如此,藉由提供可區分配置成配合系統使用之不同類型物件之偵測器,可提供種種優點。一優點係該系統之耗電可根據所辨識特定清潔物件或煙品最佳化。此外,該偵測器可辨識多少煙品及哪些類型之煙品須配合吸煙系統使用,其可指示何時或多久該吸煙系統須清潔,及該吸煙系統須藉哪一種清潔物件清潔。該吸煙系統亦可根據辨識資訊區分不同類型之煙品、不同類型之清潔物件及相同類型煙品之不同批號。

又,配置成於加熱期間改變之資訊可配置成指示已使用多少物件。例如,資訊可指示清潔物已進行多少清潔操作。
該至少一個加熱元件可包括單一加熱元件。替代地,該至少一個加熱元件可包括一個以上加熱元件。該單一加熱元件或多數加熱元件可適當地配置成最有效地對煙品中的氣溶膠形成基體或清潔物件中的清潔手段加熱。

該至少一個加熱元件可採任何適當形式。例如,該至少一個加熱元件可採諸如說明於US-A-5 388 594,US-A-5 591 368及US-A-5 505 214之加熱葉片之形式。替代地,該至少一個加熱元件可採如說明於EP-A-1 128 741之具有不同電感部之殼體或基板,或如說明於WO-A-2007/066374之電阻金屬管之形式。替代地,如說明於KR-A-100636287及JP-A-2006320286,穿過氣溶膠形成基體中心之一個或多個加熱針或桿亦可能適合。替代地,該至少一個加熱元件可為碟式(端)加熱器或碟式加熱器與加熱針或桿之組合。其他替代例包含如說明於EP-A-1 736 065之例如鎳-鉻、鉑、鎢或合金線之加熱線或燈絲,或加熱板。
該至少一個加熱元件可藉由傳導對氣溶膠形成基體加熱。該加熱元件可至少局部與該基體或沉積基體之載體接觸。替代地,加熱元件之熱可藉導熱元件傳導至該基體。替代地,該至少一個加熱元件可將熱轉移至使用期間透過電熱吸煙系統吸入之周圍空氣,其接著藉由對流對氣溶膠形成基體加熱。如說明於WO-A-2007/066374,周圍空氣可在通過氣溶膠形成基體之前加熱。
電熱吸煙系統可進一步包括指示器,用以指示何時該至少一加熱元件啟動。
於一較佳實施例中,電源係DC電壓電源。於一實施例中,電壓電源係鋰離子電池或磷酸鹽鋰離子電池。替代地,電壓電源可為鎳金屬氫化物電池或鎳鈣電池。電源可包括容納於電熱吸煙系統之電源電池。替代地,電源可包括可藉外部充電部充電之電路及連接至外部電源之界面。
電熱吸煙系統可進一步包括用以收容煙品或清潔物件並設計成供使用者抓持之殼體。

根據本發明第二態樣,亦提供一種清潔物件,包含編碼於該清潔物件上之辨識資訊,配置來清潔具有偵測器之電熱吸煙系統,該偵測器用以偵測該清潔物件,並根據編碼於該清潔物件上之該辨識資訊,區分該清潔物件與配置來配合該吸煙系統使用之其他物件。
該清潔物件可藉偵測器偵測,且一清潔物件可根據辨識資訊,與其他物件區分。較佳地,該物件係配置來配合該系統使用之複數物件之一,且該偵測器可根據辨識資訊,區分該物件與配置來配合該系統使用之複數物件之其他物件。
於一實施例中,辨識資訊印在清潔物件上。該辨識資訊可包括可見油墨、紫外線(UV)油墨、紅外線(IR)油墨、磷光油墨、氟油墨或金屬油墨。於煙品或清潔物件中可包含其他辨識資訊。於一實施例中,辨識資訊包括線性碼或條碼。

辨識資訊可配置成當使用清潔物件時改變。
根據本發明第三態樣,亦提供一種電熱吸煙系統,包括:煙品,包含編碼於該煙品中或上之辨識資訊;凹穴,用以至少局部收容該清潔物件;至少一個加熱元件;電源,用以供電至該至少一個加熱元件;電硬體,連接於該電源及該至少一個加熱元件;以及偵測器,可偵測該煙品於該凹穴中之存在情形,並根據編碼於該煙品中或上之該辨識資訊,區分該煙品與配置來配合該吸煙系統使用之其他物件。
根據本發明第三態樣,亦提供一種電熱吸煙系統,用以收容配合該吸煙系統使用之煙品,該系統包括:凹穴,用以至少局部收容該煙品,該煙品包含印於該煙品中或上之辨識資訊;至少一個加熱元件;電源,用以供電至該至少一個加熱元件;電硬體,連接於該電源及該至少一個加熱元件;以及偵測器,可偵測該煙品於該凹穴中之存在情形,並根據編碼於該煙品中或上之該辨識資訊,區分該煙品與配置來配合該吸煙系統使用之其他物件。

有關本發明一態樣所說明之特點亦可應用於本發明其他態樣。
茲參考附圖,僅舉例進一步說明本發明。
第1圖顯示根據本發明,電熱吸煙系統101之一例示實施例的立體圖。吸煙系統101包括具有前殼部105及後殼部107之殼體103。前殼部105包含具有凹穴111之前端部109,該凹穴111可收容諸如煙品或清潔物件之物件。於第1圖中顯示吸煙系統101有形式為香煙115之煙品。於本實施例中,前殼部105亦包含顯示器113。顯示器113未詳細顯示,惟其可包括任一適當形式之顯示器,例如液顯示器(LCD)、發光二極體(LED)或電漿顯示面板。此外,顯示器可配置成顯示例如有關煙品或清潔物件之任何必要資訊。
電熱吸煙系統101亦包含偵測器(於第1圖中未顯示),其位於凹穴111內或附近。偵測器亦偵測凹穴內物件之存在情形,亦可區分可配合該系統使用之多種物件。這將進一步參考第2圖討論。
第2圖顯示根據本發明實施之物件115,115’,115”,115’’’之四個實施例,其等可配合本發明實施例之電熱吸煙系統使用。
第2a圖顯示形式為香煙115之煙品。於第2a圖中,有關香煙類型之資訊使用複數個弧線201,以一維形式編碼。弧線位於待收容於凹穴111中的香煙115部分。於本實施例中,弧線盡可能遠離加熱端,以減少在吸煙經驗中此等線受損的可能性。此等弧線可藉紅外線(IR)油墨、紫外線(UV)油墨或可見油墨,或者甚至使用磷光或氟標記印在煙品上。於其他實施例中,可以任何類型的適當金屬油墨印在煙品上。
於第2a圖所示實施例中,弧線201包括複數不同寬度的線及空白。其可根據適當條碼標準(參見以下)編碼成簡單的一維條碼。替代地,弧線可包括複數相同寬度的線及空白,用以對有關香煙類型之資訊編碼。例如,n=3,以下數碼即可行:000,001,010,100,011,110,101,111,其中1代表線,0代表空白。001,010,100無法相互區分(除非提供一標線來對偵測器指示在哪裡開始編碼)。同樣地,011與110無法相互區分。如此以n=3提供五個可能性。若提供000來指示無物件存在,即僅提供四個可能性。一般而言,除非在提供標線下,提供2n-1
+1個可能性,否則,若提供000來指示無物件存在,即僅提供2n-1
個可能性。
替代地,弧線可包括二線,一為固定寬度F,一為可變寬度V,其等用以對有關香煙類型之資訊編碼。於此情況下,香煙類型以V/F給予。弧線201無須繞整根香煙延伸。然而,較佳地,弧線繞大部分香煙延伸,俾其等可容易藉偵測器203偵出。
有多數條碼標準可能適用於本發明之物件。一可能適用於本發明之條碼類型係“5之2交錯”(I2/5)條碼,其為高密度連續二-寬度條碼符號。該符碼具有條線(黑線)及空白(白線),其每一者可寬可窄。I2/5對每5條線及空白編一對數字;第一數字編成5條線,而第二數字則編成與其交錯之5空白。替代地,可使用其他標準條碼符號,或可發展出特別用於此用途之客製碼。
於第2a圖中,電熱吸煙系統中的偵測器以203示意表示。於本實施例中,偵測器203包括一適當光源[依用於物件之油墨而定可為紅外線(IR)、紫外線(UV)或可見油墨]及偵測反射光之至少一個光感測器。偵測器可包括偵測反射光之單一感測器。於此情況下,可在煙品插入凹穴時,藉由量測多種線通過偵測器之時間,進行煙品之偵測。或者,偵測器可包括偵測反射光之複數個感測器。於此情況下,一旦香煙插入凹穴,即可進行煙品之偵測。由於線大致繞香煙的整個外周延伸,因此,若使用複數個感測器,其等即僅須沿香煙之縱軸於一維中延伸。使用者亦無須藉偵測器手動地對準煙品上之印刷資訊。
須知,對有關第2a圖之煙品說明之特點亦可配合其他類型的煙品或清潔物件使用。
第2b圖顯示清潔物件115’。清潔物件包含形式為清潔刷205之清潔手段。於第2b圖中,使用二維(2D)條碼207對有關清潔物件之資訊編碼。該條碼位於待收容於凹穴111中的清潔物件115’部分上。於本實施例中,條碼207盡可能遠離加熱端,以減少在吸煙程序期間此條碼受損的可能性。該條碼可藉紅外線(IR)油墨、紫外線(UV)油墨或可見油墨,或者甚至使用磷光或氟標記印於清潔物件上。2D條碼可為資訊矩陣之形式。
於第2b圖之實施例中,清潔手段包括清潔刷205。替代地,該刷可用一抹布、拭片、布片或其他用以機械式清潔凹穴111內部之手段。清潔手段亦可包含例如於清潔前由使用者手動添加或在清潔期間供排出之清潔成分。於第2b圖之實施例中,清潔物件包括電源(例如電池或電容器)、電子硬體及刷致動器,其等均收容於該物件內。這些均未顯示於第2b圖中。於第2b圖之實施例中,清潔刷可藉開關206a及206b致動。致動可造成該刷在連接於電源之刷致動器之操作下振動或旋轉。206a係手動開關,其可由使用者按壓於其上操作。206b亦為手動,惟係壓力開關,其可藉由朝凹穴對清潔物件輕施壓力操作。於其他實施例中,可包含開關206a及206b之一,或均不包含,且清潔物件可僅倚賴手動操作。於偵測清潔物件時,可起動加熱元件。依清潔物件中的特定清潔手段而定,這可藉由清潔來協助。於第2b圖之實施例中,清潔刷205適用於加熱元件係碟狀加熱器或外部加熱器之系統。刷之特定構形可針對其他類型的加熱元件,例如內銷型加熱器更改。
於第2b圖中,電熱吸煙系統中的偵測器以209示意表示。於本實施例中,偵測器209包括線性偵測器陣列,各包括一適當光源及偵測反射光之光感測器。由於偵測器係線性偵測器陣列,因此,清潔物件應插入凹穴中,使條碼對準該陣列。替代地,清潔物件可插入凹穴中,並接著由使用者手動旋轉,以使條碼整體沿邊通過該陣列,並因此線性偵測器陣列讀取二維條碼。於另一實施例中,偵測器可包括二維CCD(電荷耦合裝置)陣列。於此情況下,清潔物件應插入凹穴中,使條碼對準CCD陣列。替代地,清潔物件可插入凹穴中,並接著由使用者手動旋轉,以使條碼對準CCD陣列。於任一情況下,可使用機械元件,例如標記或對準標記之物件中的凹槽或凹穴上的凹槽,對使用者指示凹穴中物件之適當位置或旋轉量。於一實施例中,在物件上設置與凹穴中之缺口、凹槽或溝道協作之突起。該突起較佳地沿物件縱向延伸,並配置成與凹穴壁之對應縱槽對準。替代地,突起可設於凹穴中,在物件上有對應凹槽。
替代地,為使物件無須適當對準或於凹穴中旋轉,二維條碼可繞物件外周重複印刷。若偵測器包括二維裝置陣列,假設陣列大小充份,偵測器之視野即大到足以讀取條碼的所有部分。
須知,對有關第2b圖之清潔物件說明之特點亦可配合其他類型的清潔物件或煙品使用。
第2a及2b圖之實施例使用光學發光體及偵測器來偵測凹穴中的物件,並使用印在物件上的資訊來區分種種類型的物件。對煙品而言,這可能很有利,此乃因為濾嘴用紙及香煙之塞頭包裝部均可用來印刷,且當對煙品加熱時,印刷可能不會影響煙化學性。
第2c圖顯示形式為香煙115”之煙品。於第2c圖中,金屬粉末混合於香煙115”中氣溶膠形成基體內的煙草。其以氣溶膠形成嘴塞211示意顯示。金屬粉末量的變化可指示不同香煙類型。於第2c圖中,電熱吸煙系統之偵測器係電感感測器,其包括圍繞煙品之之感應線圈。其以213示意顯示。於本實施例中,線圈213周期性連接,且電流之增加指示於凹穴中有香煙。電流增加量於不同香煙類型中有差別。金屬亦可包含其他形式,例如印於香煙上之金屬化條碼。
使用電感感測器而非光學感測器可很有利,因為偵測器不受系統中任何污染的影響。須知,對有關第2c圖之煙品說明之特點亦可配合其他類型的煙品或清潔物件使用。若配合清潔物件使用,即可將金屬元件倂設入清潔刷毛或中心核部中,或清潔物件之剩餘部分內。
於第2a、2b及2c圖之實施例中,將有關煙品或清潔物件之資訊編碼於物件之構造上。這容許電熱吸煙系統不僅偵測物件於凹穴中的情形,且分辨一種物件與可配合該裝置使用之多數不同類型。就煙品而言,這使電熱吸煙系統可調整加熱,使之適於特定香煙類型或特定使用者,或二者。例如,特定基體可能需要較高操作溫度或較長加熱時間。就清潔物件而言,這使電熱吸煙系統可調整加熱,使之適於特定清潔手段。例如,特定清潔成份可提供較高操作溫度或較長加熱時間之改進清潔。此外,清潔操作可依配合該系統使用之煙品調整。例如,煙品之更頻繁使用需要更頻繁或更長的清潔期間,或者某些類型的煙品可能需要更頻繁或更長的清潔期間或不同的清潔成份。此外,特定物件之辨識容許儲存有關物件之種種資訊,例如所吸煙品數、煙草類型、次一清潔煙品數及清潔物件之較佳類型。
第2d圖顯示形式為香煙115’’’之煙品。如於第2a圖中,有關香煙類型之資訊使用複數個弧線215編碼。弧線215位於待收容於凹穴111中的香煙115’’’之部分,並盡可能位於遠離加熱端,以減少在吸煙經驗期間,此等線受損的可能性。此外,設置額外弧線217於香煙上。弧線217接近加熱端並設計成在涉及吸煙經驗之加熱期間改變。線的改變指示香煙業已吸過。
如於第2a及2b圖中所示,弧線215可藉紅外線(IR)、紫外線(UV)油墨、可見油墨,或者甚至使用磷光或氟標記印於煙品上。弧線217可印有熱感油墨,其配置成於凹穴內達到高溫時改變或消失。或可使用其他機構,容許線在加熱期間改變外觀。
於第2d圖中,偵測器以219示意表示。如以上參考第2a及2b圖所說明,偵測器可為任一種適當感測器。偵測器配置成使用弧線215來偵測香煙的存在情形並辨識香煙,以及使用弧線217來判定香煙是否已吸過。於第2d圖中顯示一單一偵測器,然而,可設置分別用於弧線215及217之個別偵測器。線217可簡單指示香煙吸過或未吸過。或者,線217可指示吸過多少香煙。此等資訊可指示香煙是否還有幾口供抽吸及其他類似資訊。此種資訊可儲存於硬體中。此種資訊亦可對使用者顯示。
於第2d圖之實施例中,使用一組資訊(線215)來辨識香煙,並使用另一組資訊(線217)來辨識香煙是否已吸過,及可選擇地香煙吸過多少。然而,單一組資訊亦可指示香煙類型及是否業已吸過。例如,一組線可提供編碼資訊於香煙上,以及配置來於加熱期間改變。香煙上的線之位置依該等線的目的而定為適當的。
須知,對有關第2d圖之煙品說明之特點亦可配合其他類型的煙品或清潔物件使用。若配合清潔物件使用,弧線217即指示業已用過清潔物件,及任選地清潔物件業已進行多少清潔。此外,可使用多數不同列印配置(例如條碼或資料矩陣)來替代弧線。
雖然第2a、2c及2d圖所示實施例顯示形式為香煙,具有實心氣溶膠形成基體之煙品,惟,未必如此。氣溶膠形成基體可為不同形式之實心基體,諸如完全容納於電熱吸煙系統內之囊體。氣溶膠形成基體可替代地為如於EP-A 1736065中說明之液態基體。該氣溶膠形成基體可為其他任何適當基體類型。
此外,圖示之實施例顯示一種電熱吸煙系統,其中,使用者直接在煙品上抽吸。然而,未必如此。使用者可直接在系統上,例如在吸口上抽吸。
本發明之上述實施例提供多數優點。首先,該系統容許於香煙大小上有合理的製造公差。該系統容許在諸如溫度及濕度之環境因素上可變。該系統大小合宜,容許消費者手持。該系統亦對多種煙品及清潔物件類型提供可靠、一貫的操作。
