AEROSOL-GENERATING ARTICLE WITH TUBULAR ELEMENT AND VENTILATION - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240016202 titled 'AEROSOL-GENERATING ARTICLE WITH TUBULAR ELEMENT AND VENTILATION

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes a tubular element for an aerosol-generating article. Here is a simplified explanation of the abstract:

  • The tubular element consists of a tubular body with a cavity extending from one end to the other.
  • At the first end of the tubular body, there is a folded end portion that forms a wall and creates an opening for airflow between the cavity and the exterior of the tubular element.
  • Along the tubular body, there is a ventilation zone located between approximately 5 millimeters and 15 millimeters from the folded end portion.

Potential Applications:

  • This tubular element could be used in aerosol-generating articles such as e-cigarettes or inhalers.
  • It may also find applications in other devices that require controlled airflow.

Problems Solved:

  • The tubular element provides a specific design that allows for controlled airflow and ventilation.
  • It ensures that the airflow is directed properly and efficiently within the aerosol-generating article.

Benefits:

  • The tubular element's design helps to optimize the performance of aerosol-generating articles.
  • It allows for better control of airflow and ventilation, resulting in improved user experience and product efficiency.
  • The specific location of the ventilation zone helps to ensure that the aerosol is generated effectively.



Original Abstract Submitted

a tubular element for an aerosol-generating article is provided, the tubular element including: a tubular body defining a cavity extending from a first end of the tubular body to a second end of the tubular body; a folded end portion forming a first end wall at the first end of the tubular body, the first end wall delimiting an opening for airflow between the cavity and an exterior of the tubular element; and a ventilation zone at a location along the tubular body of the tubular element, the ventilation zone being located between about 5 millimetres and about 15 millimetres from the folded end portion of the tubular element.
