Cigarette Mouthpiece
A cigarette mouthpiece is described. Embodiments of the cigarette mouthpiece include cigarette mouthpiece made from a strip of flexible material having a varying width. A width of the strip of flexible material can help determine a length of a user engagement portion and a cigarette engagement portion of the cigarette mouthpiece. The cigarette mouthpiece can have a substantially circular cross-sectional shape and a diameter of the cigarette mouthpiece can be adjustable. Typically, an outside diameter of the cigarette engagement portion can be altered to fit into differently sized rolled cigarettes.
Smoking article with heat transfer component
Smoking articles are disclosed herein. The present disclosure is directed to a smoking article that comprises a heat source configured to generate heat upon ignition thereof, a substrate material having opposed first and second ends, the heat source being disposed proximate the first end of the substrate material and the substrate material having an aerosol precursor composition associated therewith, a mouthpiece, the mouthpiece being disposed proximate the second end of the substrate material, and a heat transfer component. In one implementation, the heat transfer component comprises a hollow structure and opposing first and second flanges located on respective ends thereof, wherein the hollow structure extends through the heat source such that the heat source is located between the first and second opposing flanges. In another implementation, the heat transfer component is located within the heat source, penetrates at least a portion of the substrate material, and includes a cap located between the heat source and the substrate material.

Aerosol generating system with multiple inductor coils
An aerosol-generating device is provided, including a housing having a chamber sized to receive at least a portion of an aerosol-forming substrate, the chamber defining a heating zone; a first coil disposed at least partially around, or adjacent to, the heating zone; and a second coil disposed at least partially around, or adjacent to, the heating zone, the first coil being a drive coil couplable to a source of alternating current, and the second coil being a resonant coil of a resonant circuit, the second coil being inductively couplable to the first coil.
A Breakable Capsule Comprising a Tobacco Product
A smoking article includes a filter section including a filter material and at least one capsule including a shell. The capsule includes a liquid contained by the shell in the capsule, which further includes at least one carrier fluid and/or at least one flavored fluid arranged inside the crushable shell. The filter section includes a tobacco product, wherein the tobacco product includes tobacco particles with an average size of 30 μm or less. The tobacco product is arranged inside the filter material, in a plug wrap, in at least one wrapping and/or inside the capsule. A filter section including the tobacco product and a method of manufacturing a smoking article with such a filter section are also provided.
FILTER FOR SMOKING ARTICLE
The present invention addresses the problem of providing a filter for a smoking article, or the like, which does not reduce, more than necessary, components affecting flavor which are contained in mainstream smoke, and which does not release aroma components other than an aroma component which is attributable to tobacco smoke. The foregoing problem is solved by a filter for a smoking article, the filter comprising a filter segment which does not release aroma components and which has a porous material that includes: inactive particles which do not selectively reduce components contributing to flavor with respect to raw tar in tobacco smoke; and a non-fibrous binder resin.
FILTER FOR SMOKING ARTICLE
The present invention addresses the problem of providing a filter for a smoking article that can reduce a stimulus component such as formaldehyde, and that does not reduce any more than necessary a component affecting the smoke flavor included in mainstream smoke. This problem is solved by providing a smoking article filter comprising a filter segment that has a porous material containing: a hydrotalcite particle; and a nonfibrous binder resin.
AEROSOL DELIVERY DEVICE INCLUDING A SEGREGATED SUBSTRATE
The present disclosure provides an aerosol source member and an aerosol delivery device that includes an aerosol source member. The aerosol source member includes a segmented substrate portion that includes a first substrate segment and a second substrate segment. The first substrate segment includes a first aerosol former, the second substrate segment includes a second aerosol former different from the first aerosol former, and the second substrate segment is positioned between the first substrate segment and a downstream end of the aerosol source member. The first substrate segment and the second substrate segment are configured such that when heated by a heat source, the first substrate segment is heated to a first temperature and the second substrate segment is heated to a second temperature that is less than the first temperature.
AN AEROSOL GENERATING COMPONENT FOR A TOBACCO HEATING DEVICE AND A MOUTHPIECE THERFOR
An aerosol generating component for a tobacco heating device includes an aerosol generating material, a mouthpiece downstream of the aerosol generating material, a first wrapper comprising a first sheet material and surrounding at least a portion of the aerosol generating material and a second wrapper comprising a second sheet material and surrounding at least a portion of the mouthpiece. The thermal conductivity of the first sheet material is higher than the thermal conductivity of the second sheet material. There is also described a mouthpiece for an aerosol generating component for a tobacco heating device, the mouthpiece comprising one or more wrappers wherein at least one of the one or more wrappers comprises a sheet material having a density in the range 0.2 g/cm.sup.3 to 0.45 g/cm.sup.3.
NON-COMBUSTIBLE TOBACCO VAPING INSERT, AND CARTRIDGE WITH NON-COMBUSTIBLE TOBACCO VAPING INSERT
The non-combustible tobacco vaping insert includes a filter having a first diameter, and a tobacco element with a first end contacting the filter, the tobacco element having a second diameter that is smaller than the first diameter of the filter. The cartridge includes a housing, where the cartridge defines an air passage within the housing, and a vaping insert is positioned in at least one first portion of the air passage. The vaping insert is non-combustible and is configured to allow vapor to pass through the vaping insert prior to exiting the cartridge. The vaping insert includes a filter having a first diameter, and a tobacco element with a first end contacting the filter, the tobacco element having a second diameter that is smaller than the first diameter of the filter.
