Definitions

  • the invention relates to a system for providing an inhalable aerosol and the components of such a system.
  • This system is particularly suitable as a smoking article for providing smoke aerosol for smokers.
  • a cigarette-shaped smoking article in which the thermal energy of a glowing carbon element is transferred to an aluminum capsule which is arranged inside the cigarette and contains an aerosol-forming material.
  • a special film tobacco loaded with high amounts of glycerin is used as the aerosol-forming material.
  • Both of the aforementioned smoking articles have in common that the combustion gases of the heating element are inhaled with the smoke aerosol, which leads to an increased absorption of carbon monoxide by the smoker. Furthermore, the entire smoking article, which in contrast to conventional cigarettes maintains its length, must be disposed of after smoking. This leads to an increased incidence of complex residues and associated disposal problems.
  • Another disadvantage of the above-mentioned smoking articles is a lack of taste in the first and last strokes.
  • substrate portions arranged on a belt serve for aerosol formation.
  • the substrate portions are brought into contact with an electrical heating element step by step.
  • This design allows only small amounts of substrate and the use of tobacco as an aerosol generator is not possible.
  • the winding device required for the tape is space-consuming and requires a complicated feed mechanism.
  • the object of the present invention is to provide a system for providing an inhalable aerosol which has a simple basic structure and can in particular serve as a smoking article which offers a taste impression similar to that of conventional cigarettes, but when used, no bypass smoke is generated between the trains.
  • the system according to the invention for providing an inhalable aerosol is particularly suitable as a smoking article, the functioning of which is based on the heating of an aerosol-forming material during the trains.
  • a number of preferably cylindrical portions of substrate, each of which contains aerosol-forming material within an envelope, are located in a preferably linear or circular arrangement on a carrier.
  • Such a combination of substrate portions is smoked in a special inhaler, preferably a new portion of the substrate being heated by means of chemical or electrical energy with each puff.
  • the use of the smoking article prevents the formation of sidestream smoke during train breaks.
  • An average filter cigarette provides the smoker with six to ten puffs with approximately the same taste intensity.
  • the aim according to the invention namely to provide the smoker with a similar number of flavor-equivalent puffs, can hardly be achieved with the previously known smoking articles explained above.
  • the invention solves the problem by using a new substrate portion instead of a single aerosol-forming element used for all trains. Less preferred, but also possible, is the use of one substrate portion for two or more trains.
  • the system according to the invention thus has the advantages of a constant range of smoking products and a simple construction.

For example, Tobacco, whose equilibrium moisture is around 10% to 12%, can be used with a moisture content of 20%. In this case, suitable packaging must be used to ensure that there is no loss of moisture until use.
