AEROSOL-GENERATING DEVICE, AEROSOL-GENERATING ARTICLE AND AEROSOL-DELIVERY SYSTEM - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240032603 titled 'AEROSOL-GENERATING DEVICE, AEROSOL-GENERATING ARTICLE AND AEROSOL-DELIVERY SYSTEM
Simplified Explanation
The abstract describes an aerosol-generating device that is designed to heat an aerosol-generating article in order to produce an inhalable aerosol. The device includes a housing with a cavity to hold the aerosol-generating article. The housing is designed to create a cooling air flow path that extends from the outside of the housing, through the interior, to an air-permeable portion of the cavity's wall. This wall is tubular and includes at least one annular air-permeable band that channels air flow from the cooling air flow path into the cavity around the periphery of the wall.
- The device is designed to heat an aerosol-generating article to produce an inhalable aerosol.
- The housing has a cavity to hold the aerosol-generating article.
- The housing creates a cooling air flow path that directs air from the outside of the housing to the interior.
- The air-permeable portion of the cavity's wall includes at least one annular air-permeable band that channels air flow into the cavity.
Potential applications of this technology:
- Inhalable aerosol generation for medical purposes, such as delivering medication.
- Inhalable aerosol generation for recreational purposes, such as vaping.
Problems solved by this technology:
- Provides a controlled and efficient method of generating inhalable aerosols.
- Ensures proper heating and distribution of the aerosol-forming substrate.
Benefits of this technology:
- Allows for precise control over the generation of inhalable aerosols.
- Enhances the user experience by delivering consistent and reliable aerosol production.
- Provides a safer and more efficient alternative to traditional methods of aerosol generation.
Original Abstract Submitted
an aerosol-generating device configured for heating an aerosol-generating article so as to generate an inhalable aerosol from an aerosol-forming substrate of the aerosol-generating article is provided, the aerosol-generating device including: a housing including a cavity configured to receive the aerosol-generating article, the housing being configured to define a cooling air flow path extending from outside of the housing, through an interior of the housing, to an air-permeable portion of a wall of the cavity, the wall being tubular, the air-permeable portion of the wall including at least one annular air-permeable band being configured to radially channel an air flow from the cooling air flow path into the cavity around a periphery of the tubular wall of the cavity. an aerosol-delivery system including the aerosol-generating device and an aerosol-generating article defining a rod is also provided. an aerosol-generating article for an aerosol-generating device is also provided.
