CARTRIDGE AND AEROSOL-GENERATING DEVICE INCLUDING THE SAME - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18284733 titled 'CARTRIDGE AND AEROSOL-GENERATING DEVICE INCLUDING THE SAME
Simplified Explanation
The cartridge and aerosol-generating device described in the patent application include a first container with a first chamber and an insertion space, a lower case, a frame, a wick, and a heater.
- The cartridge includes a first container with a first chamber and an insertion space.
- The lower case is coupled to the first container.
- The frame closes the open side of the first chamber and defines a second chamber in the lower case.
- A wick is placed in the second chamber and is in communication with the first chamber.
- A heater heats the wick.
Potential Applications
The technology described in this patent application could be used in:
- Electronic cigarettes
- Aromatherapy devices
- Air fresheners
Problems Solved
This technology solves the problem of efficiently heating a wick to generate aerosols without direct contact with the heating element.
Benefits
The benefits of this technology include:
- Controlled aerosol generation
- Improved safety by separating the heating element from the aerosol-generating components
- Enhanced user experience with consistent aerosol production
Potential Commercial Applications
The potential commercial applications of this technology could include:
- Consumer electronic devices
- Health and wellness products
- Home fragrance systems
Possible Prior Art
One possible prior art for this technology could be the use of similar heating elements in electronic cigarettes or other aerosol-generating devices.
Unanswered Questions
How does this technology compare to existing aerosol-generating devices on the market?
This article does not provide a direct comparison to existing aerosol-generating devices, so it is unclear how this technology differs or improves upon current products.
What safety measures are in place to prevent overheating or malfunction of the heating element?
The patent application does not detail specific safety measures for the heating element, leaving questions about the device's safety features unanswered.
Original Abstract Submitted
A cartridge and an aerosol-generating device including the same are disclosed. The cartridge of the disclosure includes a first container comprising a first chamber having an open side and an insertion space formed separately from the first chamber; a lower case coupled to the first container; a frame configured to close the open side of the first chamber and configured to partition an inside of the lower case to define a second chamber in communication with the insertion space; a wick disposed in the second chamber and in communication with the first chamber; and a heater configured to heat the wick.
