An aerosol delivery device is disclosed. The aerosol delivery device includes an atomizer and a body. The body has an outlet and houses the atomizer. The aerosol delivery device also includes a structure configured to inhibit liquid droplets of an aerosol precursor from exiting the outlet. Embodiments of the structure include micro-patterned surfaces, absorbers, and macro structures to create droplet capturing chambers.

The present disclosure relates to a mouthpiece assembly for an electronic cigarette. The mouthpiece assembly includes a mouthpiece, and a base defining an air inlet. The mouthpiece includes a sucking end, a connecting end, and an air passage. The sucking end defines an air outlet, and the air outlet is in communication with the air passage. The air inlet is in communication with the air passage. The mouthpiece assembly further includes a blocking element on the base. The blocking element is capable of preventing air from flowing through. The blocking element defines at least one through hole. The mouthpiece is capable of driving the blocking element to rotate relative to the base, so that an area of at least one opening formed by the at least one through hole and the air inlet can be changed.

The invention relates to an aerosol-generating device (10) for receiving a mouthpiece (12). The aerosol-generating device comprises a detection element (20) for detecting a type of mouthpiece received by the aerosol-generating device, a controller (24) for controlling an operation parameter of the aerosol-generating device and a heating element configured to heat an aerosol-forming substrate of an aerosol-generating article (28) when the aerosol-generating article is received by the aerosol-generating device. The controller is configured to receive an input indicative of the type of mouthpiece detected by the detection element and configured to control the operation parameter of the aerosol-generating device on basis of the detected type of mouthpiece received by the aerosol-generating device. The operation parameter of the aerosol-generating device comprises a temperature profile of the heating element during heating.

An electronic cigarette includes a main body portion and a mouthpiece portion, the mouthpiece portion being moveably connected to the main body portion by a connection mechanism. The main body portion includes a first cartridge seating configured to receive a first cartridge and the mouthpiece portion includes a second cartridge seating configured to receive a second cartridge. The connection mechanism is configured to enable the mouthpiece portion to move relative to the main body portion between: a closed position in which the first cartridge seating is enclosed in the electronic cigarette; and an open position in which the first cartridge seating is exposed such that a first cartridge can be received, while the main body and the mouthpiece portion remain connected to each other by the connection mechanism.
