A steering wheel is provided with a heater element on the rim. The heater element is mounted at least on a part of a core of the rim, and a cladding layer formed from synthetic resin foam covers an outer circumference of the heater element. The heater element includes a cord-shaped heater and a base material. The base material includes an insulation sheet that is formed from synthetic resin foam and disposed to face towards the core and a permeable sheet that is formed from non-metal which allows permeation of the cladding layer. The insulation sheet and permeable sheet are bonded together and sandwich and support the cord-shaped heater there between.

An aerosol-generating system may comprise a releasably connectable capsule and vaporizing unit. The capsule may comprise a reservoir for containing an aerosol-generating substrate, an opening in fluidic communication with the reservoir, and a valve configured to control a flow of the aerosol-generating substrate from the reservoir through the opening. The valve may comprise one or more resilient closing members biased towards a closed position. The vaporizing unit may comprise a transfer element and a heating element disposed in a housing. The heating element is configured to heat the aerosol-generating substrate in the transfer element. The vaporizing unit may also comprise an elongate element configured to engage with the valve to deflect the one or more resilient closing members from the closed position to an open position so as place the transfer element in fluidic connection with the reservoir when the capsule is connected to the vaporizing unit.

An aerosol generating system includes a heater assembly and a manually operated pump. The pump includes a hollow member with an inlet portion and an outlet portion. The inlet portion of the hollow member is configured connectable with a liquid storage portion. The outlet portion of the hollow member is in fluid communication with a dispensing assembly. The pump is configured to dispense a liquid material onto the heater assembly. The pump is configured to pump the liquid material from the liquid storage portion via the dispensing assembly and onto the heater assembly.

A heater mat assembly for a rotor blade spar is provided including a plurality of electrically conductive heater wires extending in a spaced parallel configuration along a path of the rotor blade spar. An electrical current is flowed through the plurality of heater wires to inhibit ice accumulation on a portion of the rotor blade spar. At least one layer of a first insulating material is arranged adjacent a first side of each of the plurality of heater wires such that the at least one layer of the first insulating material is disposed between the plurality of heater wires and an adjacent surface of the rotor blade spar. The first insulating material comprises a thermally and electrically insulating material.

A heater assembly for an electronic vaping device and a method of manufacturing the electronic vaping device are provided. The heater assembly includes a chimney cage extending longitudinally, a heater extending longitudinally within the chimney cage, a heater gauze positioned about an outer circumference of the heater, the chimney case positioned about an outer circumference of the heater gauze, and a cathode clip electrically connected to a first end portion of the heater.

A heater includes: a plate-like first heater substrate; an electrical heating wire that is provided on a first surface of the first heater substrate in a parallel circuit; electrodes that are connected to the electrical heating wire to allow current to flow in the electrical heating wire; and a plate-like cover substrate that covers the first surface of the first heater substrate, the electrical heating wire, and the electrodes with a second surface thereof. The electrical heating wire of the heater generates heat, so that the amount of heat is supplied. A honeycomb structure includes at least one heater that is provided so as to surround an outer wall thereof.

The present disclosure relates to methods and apparatus for vaporizing the plant material of a rolled article. More specifically, the present disclosure presents an apparatus for adapting a rolled article to be inhaled through a vaporization of the active ingredient of the plant material contained within the rolled article. The present disclosure relates to a device battery powered heating element, a means to insert or attach to a cigarette or other rolled article, such as a cigar or other roll of tobacco, marijuana, or smoking substance, and a means to activate the heating element, wherein the heating element may vaporize the rolled material for inhalation.

An electrically operated aerosol-generating system includes a liquid storage portion configured to hold a liquid aerosol-forming substrate; an aerosol generator configured to receive liquid aerosol-forming substrate from the liquid storage portion; one or more capillary wicks configured to transfer liquid aerosol-forming substrate from the liquid storage portion to the aerosol generator; a first temperature sensor configured to sense the temperature of liquid aerosol-forming substrate held in the liquid storage portion; and electric circuitry. The electric circuitry is configured to monitor the temperature of the liquid aerosol-forming substrate held in the liquid storage portion as sensed by the first temperature sensor and determine depletion of liquid aerosol-forming substrate based on the temperature of the liquid aerosol-forming substrate.
