Original Abstract Submitted
an aerosol-generating system includes a main body, a cartridge, and a connecting component. the main body includes a main body housing enclosing a power supply. the cartridge includes a cartridge housing enclosing a reservoir of liquid aerosol-forming substrate. the cartridge is releasably connectable to the main body by the connecting component. the connecting component is fixed to the main body housing and is less stiff in at least one direction than the main body housing. the connecting component that is less stiff the main body housing and the cartridge housing can act as a shock absorber when the aerosol-generating system experiences a significant impact, such as when dropped on a surface. this reduces damage to other components of the system and, in particular, may prevent leaks of liquid resulting from damage to the liquid reservoir.
