Description
本揭示內容與一種形成HNB耗材以供用於吸煙替代系統中的方法及由此類方法所形成的HNB耗材相關。 The present disclosure relates to a method of forming HNB consumables for use in a smoking alternative system and HNB consumables formed by such methods.
在煙草產品(例如香煙)的製造工序期間,產生了煙草廢料。煙草廢料一般呈煙草灰、葉、或莖的形式。可以收集及處理煙草廢料以提供所謂的重組煙草或「重組物(recon)」。 During the manufacturing process of tobacco products, such as cigarettes, tobacco waste is generated. Tobacco waste generally takes the form of tobacco ash, leaves, or stems. Tobacco waste can be collected and processed to provide so-called reconstituted tobacco or "recon".
最常採用兩種相異的方法來製造重組煙草,這些方法是:1)造紙工序(即用來提供「紙重組物」),及ii)漿體澆鑄(用來提供「漿體類型的重組物」)。由這些相異的工序所造成的產品具有顯著不同的性質及特性。例如,漿體類型的重組物與紙重組物相比一般具有改善的芳香/風味及尼古丁含量,但漿體類型的重組物一般更容易破碎且通常具有較不良的品質均勻性。 Two distinct methods are most commonly used to manufacture reconstituted tobacco. These methods are: 1) the papermaking process (which is used to provide a "paper reconstitute"), and ii) slurry casting (which is used to provide a "slurry type reconstituted product"). "thing"). The products resulting from these different processes have significantly different properties and characteristics. For example, pulp-type reconstituted products generally have improved aroma/flavor and nicotine content compared to paper reconstituted products, but pulp-type reconstituted products generally break more easily and often have poorer quality uniformity.
在漿體澆鑄時,將煙草廢料研磨成細粉,且與水性溶劑(一般是水)混合且與黏合劑結合。可以使生成的漿體經歷進一步的研磨以進一步減少煙草材料的顆粒尺寸。接著將漿體澆鑄在一個表面上且乾化以形成片材。可以切碎乾化的片材以用在各種煙草產品內,例如用作香煙填料。 During slurry casting, tobacco waste is ground into a fine powder, mixed with an aqueous solvent (usually water) and combined with a binder. The resulting slurry may be subjected to further grinding to further reduce the particle size of the tobacco material. The slurry is then cast onto a surface and dried to form sheets. The dried sheets can be shredded for use in a variety of tobacco products, such as cigarette filler.
在造紙工序中,在存在水性溶劑的情況下搗攪煙草廢料,以將煙草消化及處理成可加工的纖維。隨後,將存在於煙草中的水溶性化合物抽取到水性溶劑中。分離水性抽取物及不溶的纖維狀部分。經由典型的造紙程序使分離的纖維狀部分(其也可以描述為「紙漿」)經歷進一步的處理以形成基礎片材。將水性抽取物濃縮然後重新塗敷到基礎片材。接著乾化基礎片材以形成紙。 In the papermaking process, tobacco waste is pounded in the presence of an aqueous solvent to digest and process the tobacco into processable fibers. Subsequently, water-soluble compounds present in tobacco are extracted into an aqueous solvent. Separate the aqueous extract and the insoluble fibrous fraction. The separated fibrous portion (which may also be described as "pulp") undergoes further processing via typical papermaking procedures to form a base sheet. The aqueous extract is concentrated and then re-applied to the base sheet. The base sheet is then dried to form paper.
一般認為吸煙草使吸煙者暴露於潛在有害物質。一般認為,大量的潛在有害物質是藉由由煙草及煙草的煙本身中燃燒的煙草成分的燃燒及/或發火所造成的熱產生的。 It is generally believed that smoking tobacco exposes smokers to potentially harmful substances. It is generally believed that a large number of potentially harmful substances are produced by the heat caused by the combustion and/or ignition of burning tobacco components in tobacco and the tobacco smoke itself.
常規的易燃吸煙製品(例如香煙)一般包括圓柱形的煙草桿且通常也包括圓柱形的濾嘴,該圓柱形的煙草桿包括被包裝紙環繞的煙絲,該濾嘴與包裹的煙草桿呈鄰接關係地軸向對準。濾嘴一般包括被塞套圍束的過濾材料。包裹的煙草桿及濾嘴藉由包裹的接裝紙帶接合在一起,該接裝紙帶圍束濾嘴的整個長度及包裹的煙草桿的相鄰部分。此種常規香煙是藉由點燃與濾嘴相對的端部及燃燒煙草桿來使用的。吸煙者藉由在香煙的口部端或濾嘴端進行抽吸來將主流煙接收到它們的口部中。已知有機材料(例如煙草)的發火會產生焦油及其他潛在有害的副產物。已經提出了各種吸煙替代系統(或「替代吸煙系統」)以避免吸煙草。 Conventional combustible smoking articles (such as cigarettes) generally include a cylindrical tobacco rod and usually also include a cylindrical filter. The cylindrical tobacco rod includes shredded tobacco surrounded by a wrapper, and the filter is formed with the wrapped tobacco rod. axially aligned in adjacent relationship. Filters generally include filter material enclosed by a plug. The wrapped tobacco rod and filter are joined together by a wrapped tipping tape that encompasses the entire length of the filter and adjacent portions of the wrapped tobacco rod. Such conventional cigarettes are used by lighting the end opposite the filter and burning the tobacco rod. Smokers receive mainstream smoke into their mouths by puffing on the mouth end or filter end of a cigarette. The ignition of organic materials, such as tobacco, is known to produce tar and other potentially harmful by-products. Various smoking alternative systems (or "alternative smoking systems") have been proposed to avoid smoking tobacco.
此類吸煙替代系統可以形成尼古丁替代療法的一部分,該療法針對的是希望停止吸煙且克服對尼古丁的依賴的人。 Such smoking replacement systems could form part of nicotine replacement therapy for people who wish to stop smoking and overcome their dependence on nicotine.
吸煙替代系統包括電子系統,該電子系統藉由產生煙霧(也稱為「蒸氣」)容許使用者模擬吸煙的動作,該煙霧藉由口部(吸入)抽吸到肺部中然後呼出。吸入的煙霧一般帶有尼古丁及/或調味劑,其不具有或具有較少的與傳統吸煙相關聯的氣味及健康風險。 Smoking alternative systems include electronic systems that allow users to simulate the action of smoking by generating smoke (also called "vapor") that is drawn into the lungs through the mouth (inhalation) and then exhaled. Inhaled smoke typically contains nicotine and/or flavoring, which has none or fewer of the odors and health risks associated with traditional smoking.
一般而言,吸煙替代系統旨在提供吸煙儀式的替代品,同時將類似的體驗提供給使用者及向有傳統吸煙及易燃煙草產品的經驗的彼等人提供滿足。一些吸煙替代系統使用吸煙替代製品,該吸煙替代製品被設計為類似於傳統香煙,且呈圓柱形的形式且在一端處具有煙嘴口。 Generally speaking, smoking alternative systems aim to provide an alternative to the smoking ritual while providing a similar experience to users and providing satisfaction to those who have experience with traditional smoking and combustible tobacco products. Some smoking alternative systems use a smoking alternative article that is designed to resemble a traditional cigarette and is cylindrical in form with a mouthpiece at one end.
在過去幾年中,吸煙替代系統的普及及使用迅速成生。雖然原本是作為協助希望戒去吸煙草的習慣性吸煙者的輔助來銷售的,但消費者越來越將吸煙替代系統視為合乎需要的生活風格配件。 Over the past few years, the popularity and use of smoking replacement systems has grown rapidly. Although originally marketed as an aid to assist habitual smokers who wish to quit smoking tobacco, consumers are increasingly viewing smoking replacement systems as desirable lifestyle accessories.
存在許多不同範疇的吸煙替代系統,每種均利用不同的吸煙替代方法。 There are many different categories of smoking replacement systems, each utilizing different smoking replacement methods.
一種用於吸煙替代系統的方法是所謂的「加熱不燃燒」(「HNB」)方法,其中將煙草(而不是「電子液體」)加熱或加溫以釋放蒸氣。煙草可以是煙葉或重組的煙草。蒸氣可以含有尼古丁及/或調味劑。在HNB方法中,意圖是,將煙草加熱但不燃燒,即煙草並不經歷發火。 One method used for smoking alternative systems is the so-called "heat not burn" ("HNB") method, in which tobacco (rather than "e-liquid") is heated or warmed to release vapor. The tobacco may be tobacco leaves or reconstituted tobacco. The vapor may contain nicotine and/or flavorings. In the HNB method, the intention is that the tobacco is heated but not burned, ie the tobacco does not undergo ignition.
典型的HNB吸煙替代系統可以包括設備及耗材。耗材可以包括煙草材料。可以將設備及耗材配置為實體耦接在一起。使用時,可以藉由設備的加熱構件向煙草材料賦予熱,其中通過煙草材料的空氣流使得煙草材料中的濕氣作為蒸氣釋放。蒸氣也可以由煙草材料中的載體及從煙草所釋放的額外的揮發性化合物所形成(此載體可以例如包括丙二醇及/或植物甘油)。釋放的蒸氣可以夾帶在抽吸通過煙草的空氣流中。 A typical HNB smoking replacement system may include equipment and consumables. Consumables may include tobacco materials. Equipment and consumables can be configured to be physically coupled together. In use, heat may be imparted to the tobacco material by heating means of the device, wherein the flow of air through the tobacco material causes moisture in the tobacco material to be released as vapor. The vapor may also be formed from a carrier in the tobacco material and additional volatile compounds released from the tobacco (the carrier may include, for example, propylene glycol and/or vegetable glycerin). The released vapor can become entrained in the air flow drawn through the tobacco.
隨著蒸氣從入口向煙嘴口(出口)穿過耗材(夾帶在空氣流中),蒸氣冷卻且冷凝以形成煙霧以供由使用者吸入。煙霧通常將含有揮發性化合物。 As the vapor passes through the filament (entrained in the air flow) from the inlet to the mouthpiece (outlet), the vapor cools and condenses to form aerosol for inhalation by the user. Smoke will typically contain volatile compounds.
在HNB吸煙替代系統中,認為加熱而不是燃燒煙草材料造成較少或較小量的通常在吸煙期間產生的更有害的化合物。從而,HNB方法可以減少可能藉由煙草的燃燒、發火、及熱解劣化引起的氣味及/或健康風險。 In the HNB smoking alternative system, it is believed that heating rather than burning the tobacco material results in fewer or smaller amounts of the more harmful compounds typically produced during smoking. Thus, the HNB approach can reduce odor and/or health risks that may be caused by combustion, ignition, and pyrolytic degradation of tobacco.
需要改善HNB耗材的設計以增強使用者體驗及改善HNB吸煙替代系統的功能。 Improvements in the design of HNB consumables are needed to enhance the user experience and improve the functionality of HNB smoking replacement systems.
鑑於上述考量設計了本揭示內容。 This disclosure has been designed with the above considerations in mind.
從最廣泛的意義上講,本揭示內容與形成HNB耗材的方法相關,該HNB耗材包括具有增加的揮發性化合物濃度的煙霧形成基材。 In the broadest sense, the present disclosure relates to methods of forming HNB consumables that include an aerosol-forming substrate having an increased concentration of volatile compounds.
依據第一態樣,本發明提供一種形成包括煙霧形成基材的HNB耗材的方法,該方法包括用於形成重組植物材料的漿體類型工序,其中在澆鑄成片材之前將調味料提供在漿體中。 According to a first aspect, the present invention provides a method of forming an HNB consumable comprising an aerosol-forming substrate, the method comprising a slurry type process for forming recombinant plant material, wherein flavoring is provided in the slurry prior to casting into a sheet. in the body.
與造紙工序相比,對「漿體類型」的指稱與由漿體澆鑄所製作的重組植物材料對應。 In contrast to the papermaking process, the reference to "slurry type" corresponds to the reconstituted plant material produced by slurry casting.
藉由使用添加有調味料的煙霧形成基材(其將自己包括揮發性化合物),可以增加揮發性化合物的數量/濃度以將含有較高濃度的揮發性化合物的蒸氣/煙霧提供給使用者。這可以在吸入時將增強的休閒及/或醫療效果提供給使用者。並且,HNB耗材的目前的調味劑選項是有限的。因此,藉由使煙霧形成基材添加有調味料,使用者將從生成的HNB耗材體驗到增強及變化的風味。 By using a flavored aerosol-forming substrate that itself includes volatile compounds, the amount/concentration of volatile compounds can be increased to provide a vapor/aerosol containing a higher concentration of volatile compounds to the user. This may provide enhanced recreational and/or medical benefits to the user upon inhalation. Also, current flavoring options for HNB consumables are limited. Therefore, by adding flavoring to the aerosol-forming substrate, the user will experience enhanced and varied flavors from the resulting HNB consumable.
現將列出可選的特徵。這些特徵單獨地可適用或用與任何態樣的任何組合地可適用。 The optional features are now listed. These features are applicable individually or in any combination with any aspect.
用於製造包括煙霧形成基材(其中該煙霧形成基材是漿體類型的重組植物材料)的加熱不燃燒(HNB)耗材的第一態樣的方法包括以下步驟: 將研磨的植物材料與水性介質結合以形成漿體;在該漿體中提供調味料;澆鑄該漿體以形成片材;乾化該片材以形成煙霧形成基材;及將該煙霧形成基材的一部分合併到HNB耗材中。 A method for manufacturing a first aspect of a heat-not-burn (HNB) consumable comprising an aerosol-forming substrate (wherein the aerosol-forming substrate is a slurry type of recombinant plant material) includes the following steps: combining ground plant material with an aqueous medium to form a slurry; providing flavorings in the slurry; casting the slurry to form a sheet; drying the sheet to form an aerosol-forming substrate; and converting the aerosol-forming substrate Part of the material is merged into HNB consumables.
由本方法所形成的煙霧形成基材能夠被加熱以釋放可以形成煙霧的至少一種揮發性化合物。煙霧形成基材可以位於耗材的上游端處。 The aerosol-forming substrate formed by the present method can be heated to release at least one volatile compound that can form aerosol. The aerosol-forming substrate may be located at the upstream end of the consumable.
如本文中所使用的,用語「上游」及「下游」旨在指蒸氣/煙霧的流動方向,即在耗材的下游端是煙霧離開耗材以供由使用者吸入的口部端或出口的情況下的流動方向。耗材的上游端是下游端的相對端。 As used herein, the terms "upstream" and "downstream" are intended to refer to the direction of flow of vapor/smoke, i.e. where the downstream end of the consumable is the mouth end or outlet where the smoke leaves the consumable for inhalation by the user flow direction. The upstream end of the consumable is the opposite end of the downstream end.
為了產生煙霧,煙霧形成基材包括至少一種揮發性化合物,該至少一種揮發性化合物旨在被汽化/霧化且可以在吸入時將休閒及/或醫療效果提供給使用者。合適的化學及/或具有生理活性的揮發性化合物包括由以下項目所組成的群組:尼古丁、古柯鹼、咖啡因、鴉片及鴉片類藥物、去甲偽麻黃鹼及卡西酮、卡法內酯、肉豆蔻醚、β-咔啉生物鹼、薩爾維諾林A(salvinorin A)、以及前述項目的任何組合、功能等效物、及/或合成替代物。 To generate aerosol, the aerosol-forming substrate includes at least one volatile compound that is intended to be vaporized/aerosolized and that can provide recreational and/or medical benefits to the user when inhaled. Suitable chemically and/or physiologically active volatile compounds include the group consisting of: nicotine, cocaine, caffeine, opium and opiates, norpseudoephedrine and cathinones, kava lactones , myristyl ether, beta-carboline alkaloids, salvinorin A, and any combination, functional equivalent, and/or synthetic substitute of the foregoing items.
也可以將黏合劑包括在漿體內。因此,方法可以更包括將黏合劑合併到漿體中的步驟。可以將研磨的煙草在與水性介質結合之前與黏合劑結合。或者,可以在將水性介質與研磨的煙草結合之前將黏合劑與水性介質結合。 Binders can also be included in the slurry. Accordingly, the method may further include the step of incorporating the binder into the slurry. The ground tobacco can be combined with a binder before being combined with the aqueous medium. Alternatively, the binder can be combined with the aqueous medium prior to combining the aqueous medium with the ground tobacco.
合適的黏合劑是本領域中習知的,且可以用來將形成煙霧形成基材的成分黏合在一起。黏合劑可以包括澱粉及/或纖維素黏合劑(例如甲基纖維素、乙基纖維素、羥丙基纖維素、羥乙基纖維素、及羧甲基纖維素)、樹 膠(例如黃原膠、瓜爾膠、阿拉伯膠、及/或角豆膠)、有機酸、及它們的鹽(例如藻酸/藻酸鈉、瓊脂、及果膠)。 Suitable adhesives are known in the art and can be used to bind together the components of the aerosol-forming substrate. Binders may include starch and/or cellulose binders (such as methylcellulose, ethylcellulose, hydroxypropylcellulose, hydroxyethylcellulose, and carboxymethylcellulose), tree Gums (such as xanthan gum, guar gum, acacia gum, and/or carob gum), organic acids, and their salts (such as alginic acid/sodium alginate, agar, and pectin).
優選地,用一定位準包括黏合劑以造成煙霧形成基材的5到20重量百分比(例如約6到8重量百分比)的黏合劑含量。黏合劑的上限優選地高達15重量百分比,例如高達10重量百分比。優選地,黏合劑含量大於5重量百分比。 Preferably, the binder is included at a level that results in a binder content of 5 to 20 weight percent (eg, about 6 to 8 weight percent) of the aerosol-forming substrate.

優選地,漿體的總固體含量是在總漿體重量的15%與30%之間。在此優選範圍內,漿體的總固體含量的約50到90%應是植物材料。漿體的植物材料含量不是關鍵的,但優選地,使用最小的水性介質量來避免使植物材料可溶物浸出到水性介質中。 Preferably, the total solids content of the slurry is between 15% and 30% by weight of the total slurry. Within this preferred range, about 50 to 90% of the total solids content of the slurry should be plant material. The plant material content of the slurry is not critical, but preferably a minimum amount of aqueous medium is used to avoid leaching of plant material solubles into the aqueous medium.
漿體是藉由混合漿體的各種成分來形成的。這可以使用高能混合器或高剪力混合器來實現以使漿體均質化。在混合期間,可以可選地加熱漿體。 The slurry is formed by mixing the various components of the slurry. This can be accomplished using high energy mixers or high shear mixers to homogenize the slurry. During mixing, the slurry can optionally be heated.

These may include menthol, peppermint, spearmint, licorice, chocolate, fruit flavors (including, for example, citrus, cherry, etc.), vanilla, spices (for example, ginger, cinnamon), coffee, eucalyptus, and tobacco flavors. The flavorings may be uniformly dispersed throughout the aerosol-forming substrate, or may be provided in isolated locations and/or in varying concentrations throughout the aerosol-forming substrate. Preferably, the flavoring is uniformly dispersed in the slurry, resulting in uniform dispersion throughout the aerosol-forming substrate. The ability to disperse flavorings evenly throughout the aerosol-forming substrate is a benefit of this method. The result is an improved user experience and uniformity of flavor distribution.
有利地,發現這些調味料是使用者想要的,且也將令人滿意的風味的「一口煙(hit)」提供給使用者。此外,還實現了變化及增強的風味體驗。 Advantageously, these flavorings have been found to be desirable by the user and also provide the user with a satisfying flavored "hit". Additionally, a varied and enhanced flavor experience is achieved.

Tobacco is added with 20% by weight of humectant (e.g. Such as propylene glycol (PG) or vegetable glycerin (VG)) and have a moisture content between 7-9 weight percent. The aerosol-forming substrate also includes cellulose pulp filler and guar gum binder.
用實質圓柱形的形狀形成煙霧形成基材2,使得耗材與常規的香煙相似。其具有約7mm的直徑及約12mm的軸向長度。 The aerosol-forming substrate 2 is formed in a substantially cylindrical shape so that the consumable resembles a conventional cigarette. It has a diameter of approximately 7 mm and an axial length of approximately 12 mm.
煙霧形成基材2被紙包裹層3圍束。 The aerosol-generating substrate 2 is surrounded by a paper wrapping layer 3 .
耗材1包括上游過濾構件4及下游(終端)過濾構件5。兩個過濾構件4、5被紙板管間隔物6隔開。兩個過濾構件4、5由醋酸纖維素纖維束所形成,且用相應的紙塞層(未示出)包裹。 The consumable 1 includes an upstream filter member 4 and a downstream (terminal) filter member 5 . The two filter elements 4, 5 are separated by a cardboard tube spacer 6. The two filter elements 4, 5 are formed from cellulose acetate fiber bundles and are wrapped with corresponding paper plug layers (not shown).
兩個過濾構件都具有實質圓柱形的形狀。上游過濾構件4的直徑匹配煙霧形成基材2的直徑。終端過濾構件5的直徑稍微較大,且匹配煙霧形成基材2與包裹層3的組合直徑。上游過濾構件4的軸向長度比終端過濾構件5稍短,且與終端過濾構件5的12mm相比呈10mm的軸向長度。 Both filter members have a substantially cylindrical shape. The diameter of the upstream filter member 4 matches the diameter of the aerosol forming substrate 2 . The diameter of the terminal filter member 5 is slightly larger and matches the combined diameter of the aerosol-forming substrate 2 and wrapping layer 3 . The axial length of the upstream filter member 4 is slightly shorter than that of the terminal filter member 5 and is 10 mm compared to 12 mm of the terminal filter member 5 .
紙板管間隔物比兩個過濾部分中的每一者長且具有約14mm的軸向長度。 The cardboard tube spacers are longer than each of the two filter sections and have an axial length of approximately 14 mm.
每個過濾構件4、5是具有空心、縱向延伸的孔腔的空心孔腔過濾構件。上游過濾構件4中的孔腔的直徑比終端過濾構件5中的孔腔的直徑稍大且與終端過濾構件5的2mm相比具有3mm的直徑。 Each filter element 4,5 is a hollow pore filter element having a hollow, longitudinally extending pore cavity. The diameter of the cavities in the upstream filter member 4 is slightly larger than the diameter of the cavities in the final filter member 5 and has a diameter of 3 mm compared to the 2 mm of the final filter member 5 .
紙板管間隔物6及上游過濾部分4被包裹層3圍束。 The cardboard tube spacer 6 and the upstream filter section 4 are surrounded by the wrapping layer 3 .
終端過濾構件5藉由圍束的紙接裝層7接合到形成耗材的上游構件。接裝層7環繞終端過濾部分,且具有約20mm的軸向長度,使其覆蓋紙板管間隔物6的一部分。 The final filter element 5 is joined to the upstream element forming the consumable by means of a surrounding paper binding layer 7 . The tipping layer 7 surrounds the terminal filter section and has an axial length of approximately 20 mm so that it covers part of the cardboard tube spacer 6 .
圖2示出耗材1'的第二實施例,該耗材與圖1中所示的耗材相同,除了以下條件以外:終端過濾構件5包括可壓碎的膠囊8(壓碎球),該可壓碎 的膠囊容納液體薄荷醇或櫻桃或香草調味料。膠囊8是球形的,且具有3.5mm的直徑。其定位在終端過濾部分5的軸向中心內。 Figure 2 shows a second embodiment of a consumable 1', which is the same as that shown in Figure 1, except that the final filter element 5 comprises a crushable capsule 8 (crushing ball) which broken The capsules hold liquid menthol or cherry or vanilla flavorings. The capsule 8 is spherical and has a diameter of 3.5 mm. It is positioned in the axial center of the terminal filter section 5 .
圖3示出耗材1"的第三實施例,該耗材與第一實施例相同,除了以下條件以外:包裹層3不完全圍束紙板管間隔物6,使得在接裝層7與包裹層3的端部下游的紙板管間隔物6之間存在環形間隙9。 Figure 3 shows a third embodiment of the consumable 1", which is the same as the first embodiment, except for the following conditions: the wrapping layer 3 does not completely surround the cardboard tube spacer 6, so that between the connecting layer 7 and the wrapping layer 3 There is an annular gap 9 between the cardboard tube spacers 6 downstream of the ends.
圖4示出安插到HNB設備10中的第一實施例,該HNB設備包括桿狀加熱構件(未示出)。加熱構件凸出到設備的主體12內的空腔11中。 Figure 4 shows a first embodiment inserted into a HNB device 10, which HNB device includes a rod-shaped heating member (not shown). The heating member projects into a cavity 11 within the body 12 of the device.
耗材1被安插到設備10的主體12的空腔11中,使得加熱桿穿透煙霧形成基材2。煙霧形成基材2中的重組煙草的加熱是藉由對加熱構件供電(例如用可充電電池(未示出)供電)來實現的。隨著煙草加熱,煙草及煙霧形成劑內的濕氣及揮發性化合物(例如尼古丁)釋放作為蒸氣且夾帶在終端過濾部分5處由使用者進行的吸入作用所產生的空氣流內。 The consumable 1 is inserted into the cavity 11 of the body 12 of the device 10 so that the heating rod penetrates the aerosol-forming substrate 2 . Heating of the reconstituted tobacco in the aerosol-forming substrate 2 is achieved by energizing the heating means, for example with a rechargeable battery (not shown). As the tobacco heats, moisture and volatile compounds (such as nicotine) within the tobacco and aerosol former are released as vapor and become entrained in the air flow produced by the inhalation by the user at the terminal filter section 5 .
隨著蒸氣在上游過濾構件4及紙板管間隔物6內冷卻,其冷凝以形成含有揮發性化合物的煙霧以供由使用者吸入。 As the vapor cools within the upstream filter member 4 and cardboard tube spacer 6, it condenses to form a smoke containing volatile compounds for inhalation by the user.
圖5示出製造方法的實施例的說明性圖解。將煙草研磨以將顆粒尺寸減少到小於120微米101。 Figure 5 shows an illustrative diagram of an embodiment of a manufacturing method. Tobacco is ground to reduce particle size to less than 120 microns101.
接著將研磨的煙草101與瓜爾膠黏合劑、纖維素紙漿填料、丙二醇、及植物甘油結合以形成混合物102。 Ground tobacco 101 is then combined with guar gum binder, cellulose pulp filler, propylene glycol, and vegetable glycerin to form mixture 102.
將混合物102與水性介質結合以形成漿體103。在高剪力混合器中實現混合物102與水性介質的混合。漿體的煙草含量為漿體的總固體含量的約50到90%,其中總固體含量為漿體的15到30重量百分比。 Mixture 102 is combined with an aqueous medium to form slurry 103 . Mixing of the mixture 102 with the aqueous medium is accomplished in a high shear mixer. The tobacco content of the slurry is from about 50 to 90% of the total solids content of the slurry, with the total solids content being from 15 to 30 weight percent of the slurry.
將丙二醇或植物甘油基礎液體內所含有的調味料(其中調味料含量是在調味料與基礎液體的總重量的1到50重量百分比的範圍內)與漿體結合104。 The flavoring contained in the propylene glycol or vegetable glycerin base liquid (where the flavoring content is in the range of 1 to 50 weight percent based on the total weight of flavoring and base liquid) is combined 104 with the slurry.
將生成的漿體澆鑄到乾燥機皮帶上以形成片材105。使用蒸氣乾化裝置來乾化片材以從片材移除過量的濕氣含量,直到片材自支撐為止106。 The resulting slurry is cast onto a dryer belt to form sheet 105. The sheet is dried using a vapor drying device to remove excess moisture content from the sheet until the sheet is self-supporting 106 .
將片材纏繞到管筒107上以供儲存。纏繞時的澆鑄的片材的濕氣含量為煙草片的乾重的約7到15百分比。 The sheet is wound onto tube 107 for storage. The moisture content of the cast sheet when wound is about 7 to 15 percent of the dry weight of the tobacco sheet.
可以隨後將片材製作成適用於HNB設備的HNB耗材的全部或一部分108。這是藉由將片材切割成適當的尺寸來實現的。可以將片材用作HNB設備的HNB耗材的全部或一部分109。詳細而言,其是用於HNB設備中的漿體類型的重組煙草產品。 The sheet may then be made into all or part of an HNB consumable 108 suitable for HNB equipment. This is accomplished by cutting the sheet to the appropriate size. The sheet may be used as all or part of the HNB consumables 109 for the HNB device. In detail, it is a slurry type reconstituted tobacco product used in HNB equipment.
