Definitions

  • This invention relates to a smoking device incorporating a breakable capsule, more particularly to a filtered smoking device incorporating such a capsule in its filter element.
  • capsule means a delivery system of a substance, said substance being hereinafter referred to as "the core”, which is enclosed into a shell.
  • breakable capsule refers to a capsule as hereabove defined, wherein the shell can be broken by means of a pressure to release the core, more specifically the shell can be ruptured under the pressure imposed by the smoker' s fingers when the smoker wants to release the core of the capsule.
  • US2004/0261807 describes a cigarette comprising a tobacco rod and a filter element connected to the tobacco rod, said filter having a cavity wherein a capsule is disposed.
  • Said capsule comprises an outer gelatin shell, and an inner liquid composition including flavoring agents.
  • the goal of US2004/0261807 is to make it possible for the smoker to break the capsule, during the combustion of the cigarette, to allow the release of the core of the capsule.
  • the gelatin capsule is a good storage capsule, but is sensitive to moisture, and may soften during the smoking time. This softening results in that the gelatin shell loses its breakability, i.e. its ability of being ruptured under the pressure imposed by the smoker's fingers when the smoker wants to release the core of the capsule.
  • the gelatin capsule of the prior art has a very important deformation when placed in smoking moisture conditions, which prevents the smoker from breaking it through a pressure of his/her fingers. The ability to rupture is measured through the crush strength to be exerted to rupture the capsule and through the deformation of the capsule when pressure is applied.
  • the crush strength at a dry state shall not exceed 2.5 kp: a crush strength of more than 2.5 kp appears too high to achieve the expected results. There is therefore a need to build up new capsules having a crush strength of at most 2.5kp and able to keep their breakability even when exposed to the moisture brought into the filter during the smoking.
  • the Applicant has now found that the incorporation of selected hydrocolloids in the outer shell of the capsule, and/or the coating of the outer shell by a moisture barrier layer, results in capsules keeping their ability to rupture within a smoking device even after exposition to the moisture brought in said smoking device by the smoker.
