Heating Apparatus for an Aerosol Generating Device

Abstract: a heating apparatus for an aerosol generating device includes a vacuum insulator having a main longitudinal axis and having an inner wall and an outer wall between which vacuum is enclosed; a cavity in which an aerosol forming substance can be received, positioned radially inwardly of the inner wall; a heater provided inside the vacuum insulator in thermal contact with the inner wall of the vacuum insulator, configured to heat an aerosol forming substance received in the cavity by thermal conduction to generate an aerosol; and one or more wires configured to connect the heater to a power source. the wires extend through at least one hole in the outer wall of the vacuum insulator. the wires are circumferentially surrounded by an insulator. the insulator includes glass and the one or more wires are made from a material that has thermal expansion characteristics that substantially match those of the insulator.
