There is provided a non-combustible aerosol delivery system for filtering exhaled breath, the aerosol delivery system including a power source; a filter unit; an inhalate airflow path adapted to convey vapor generated by the aerosol delivery system to the user during an inhalation, and an exhalate airflow path adapted to convey breath from the user to the filter unit during an exhalation into the aerosol delivery system; wherein the filter unit contains at least one filter, and wherein the at least one filter comprises glass fiber, polypropylene, or combinations thereof.

This application provides an e-cigarette vaporizer and an e-cigarette. The e-cigarette vaporizer includes an outer housing including an open end and an end cap arranged at the open end, where a liquid storage cavity and a sealing base configured to seal the liquid storage cavity are provided in the outer housing; a sealing ring is arranged between the end cap and the outer housing; a vaporization cavity is provided between the sealing ring and the sealing base, and the liquid substrate is vaporized in the vaporization cavity to generate aerosol released to the vaporization cavity; and a plurality of liquid storage grooves configured to adsorb and hold aerosol condensate are provided in the vaporization cavity. The e-cigarette vaporizer uses the liquid storage groove for absorbing the condensate through the capillary action, and prevents the condensate from being taken out along with inhaling airflow during inhaling.

A battery assembly, connected to a vaporization component and supplying power to the vaporization component, includes: a shell; a battery core accommodated in the shell; a first interface provided on the shell, the first interface being provided for insertion of an external device such that the external device charges the battery core; and an action assembly accommodated in the shell. When the external device is inserted into the first interface, the action assembly shuts off an electrical connection between the vaporization component and the battery assembly.
