AEROSOL-GENERATING DEVICE WITH AIR-PERMEABLE RECEIVING CAVITY - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240049795 titled 'AEROSOL-GENERATING DEVICE WITH AIR-PERMEABLE RECEIVING CAVITY

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes an aerosol-generating device that is capable of generating an aerosol from a substrate. The device includes a cavity with an opening to receive the substrate, and side walls that define the cavity. A cavity base is provided to support the substrate within the cavity, and it can be longitudinally movable within the side walls. A push rod is used to move the cavity base, protruding from the device's body when the substrate is positioned within the cavity. Additionally, there is at least one induction coil located outside the cavity, which generates a fluctuating magnetic field.

  • The device is designed to generate an aerosol from a substrate.
  • The cavity and cavity base allow for the substrate to be securely held and moved within the device.
  • The push rod is used to control the movement of the cavity base.
  • The induction coil generates a fluctuating magnetic field, which is likely used to interact with the substrate and facilitate aerosol generation.

Potential Applications:

  • This technology could be used in the development of inhalers or nebulizers for medical purposes.
  • It may also have applications in the field of air fresheners or fragrance delivery systems.
  • The device could be utilized in the creation of smoke machines or fog generators for entertainment purposes.

Problems Solved:

  • The device provides a controlled and efficient way to generate aerosols from substrates.
  • It allows for the precise movement and positioning of the substrate within the device.
  • The use of induction coils and magnetic fields may offer advantages over traditional aerosol generation methods.

Benefits:

  • The device offers a compact and portable solution for generating aerosols.
  • It provides a reliable and consistent method for aerosol generation.
  • The ability to control the movement of the substrate allows for customization of aerosol output.


Original Abstract Submitted

an aerosol-generating device for generating an aerosol from an aerosol-forming substrate is provided, the aerosol-generating device including: a cavity having an opening configured to receive the aerosol-forming substrate, the cavity being defined by side walls extending away from the opening; a cavity base configured to support the aerosol-forming substrate, or an aerosol-generating article including the aerosol-forming substrate, when received in the cavity, the cavity base being arranged to be longitudinally movable within the side walls defining the cavity; a push rod configured to move the cavity base, the push rod protruding from a body of the aerosol-generating device when the aerosol-forming substrate, or the aerosol-generating article including the aerosol-forming substrate, is positioned within the cavity; and at least one induction coil located external to the cavity and arranged to generate a fluctuating magnetic field. an aerosol-generating system including the aerosol-generating device and an aerosol-generating article is also provided.
