AEROSOL GENERATING DEVICE FOR SENSING AEROSOL GENERATING ARTICLE AND METHOD OF OPERATING THE SAME - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18289236 titled 'AEROSOL GENERATING DEVICE FOR SENSING AEROSOL GENERATING ARTICLE AND METHOD OF OPERATING THE SAME
The abstract describes an aerosol generating device with a housing, induction coil, susceptor, sensor, and processor.
- The device includes a chamber for an aerosol generating article, an induction coil to create a magnetic field, and a susceptor to generate heat using the magnetic field.
- A sensor is positioned away from the coil in a region with lower magnetic field intensity, and a processor is connected to the coil and sensor.
- The sensor helps monitor the magnetic field, ensuring it stays within safe levels for operation.
Potential Applications: - This technology could be used in electronic cigarettes or other vaping devices. - It could also be applied in industrial settings for aerosol generation in manufacturing processes.
Problems Solved: - Ensures safe operation by monitoring magnetic field intensity. - Provides controlled heating for aerosol generation.
Benefits: - Improved safety in aerosol generating devices. - Precise control over heat generation for consistent aerosol production.
Commercial Applications: Title: Advanced Aerosol Generating Device for Enhanced Safety and Control This technology could be valuable in the e-cigarette industry, as well as in industrial applications where controlled aerosol generation is required.
Questions about Aerosol Generating Devices: 1. How does the sensor in this device contribute to safety and efficiency? The sensor helps monitor the magnetic field intensity, ensuring it remains within safe levels for operation, enhancing safety and efficiency.
2. What are the potential implications of this technology in the vaping industry? This technology could lead to safer and more controlled aerosol generation in vaping devices, potentially improving user experience and product quality.
Original Abstract Submitted
An aerosol generating device according to an embodiment including a housing including a chamber configured to accommodate an aerosol generating article, an induction coil configured to generate a variable magnetic field, a susceptor arranged to surround at least a portion of the chamber and configured to generate heat by the variable magnetic field, a sensor spaced apart from the induction coil in a length direction of the housing and arranged in a region in which the intensity of the variable magnetic field is less than or equal to a designated value, and a processor electrically connected to the induction coil and the sensor. In addition, various examples are available through the specification.
