Atomizer and electronic cigarette having same
An atomizer for an electronic cigarette and an electronic cigarette are presented. The atomizer comprises a substrate, a heating device and a cover member. The substrate is provided with a mounting space. One end of the heating device is inserted into the mounting space and partially extends to the outside through the substrate to form a controlling member, and the other end is exposed to the outer surface of the substrate. When the controlling member is pressed into the substrate by an external pressing force, the heating device is pushed to move toward the outside of the substrate along the mounting space and partially extends out of the substrate. The cover member is detachably mounted to the substrate and covers the controlling member. The technical solution of the present invention is convenient for the user to disassemble and replace the heating device inside the atomizer, effectively saving the use cost.
Inhalation Device
An inhalation device defines a receptacle for receiving an aerosol-forming substrate containing at least one vaporizable substance; an atomizer configured to generate an aerosol from the aerosol-forming substrate; a first sensor configured to generate a first signal or first data associated with a presence of at least one chemical substance in the generated aerosol; a second sensor configured to generate a second signal or second data associated with a further characteristic of the generated aerosol or of the aerosol-forming substrate or of the at least one vaporizable substance; and at least one controller configured to separately analyze both the first signal or first data and the second signal or second data to determine first and second analysis results, and configured to determine an operation mode of the inhalation device or to determine whether to alter an operation of the inhalation device based on both the first and second analysis results.
AN AEROSOL-GENERATING ARTICLE COMPRISING A BARRIER
An aerosol-generating article for an aerosol-generating system is provided, the article including: a storage portion having an outlet; an aerosol-forming substrate contained within the storage portion; and a vaporisable barrier to seal the outlet, in which the barrier includes one or more polymers, has a polymer content of greater than or equal to 1 percent by weight, is configured to be vaporised during a first heating cycle of the article during first use of the article in the system, further includes one or more metal salts, and the salts are selected from the group consisting of metal alginates, metal benzoates, metal cinnamates, metal cycloheptanecarboxylates, metal levulinates, metal propanoates, metal stearates, and metal undecanoates. An aerosol-generating system, and a method of manufacturing an aerosol-generating article, are also provided.
Aerosol-generating system having a cartridge and a bypass air inlet
An aerosol-generating system (includes a cartridge, a liquid aerosol-forming substrate, and an aerosol-generating device. The cartridge includes a cartridge housing and a solid aerosol-forming substrate. The aerosol-generating device includes a cavity configured to receive at least a portion of the cartridge, an airflow inlet, and an airflow sensor. The airflow sensor is in fluid communication with the airflow inlet and the cavity). The aerosol-generating device includes a bypass air inlet in fluid communication with the cavity, an electric heater configured to heat the liquid aerosol-forming substrate, a power supply, and a controller. The aerosol-generating system is configured so that the cartridge housing substantially prevents airflow through the bypass air inlet when the cartridge is received within the cavity.

Aerosol generating device and article
An aerosol generating device defines a flow path from an air inlet to an inhalable medium outlet. The device includes a container for containing a liquid; a wick for drawing liquid from the container into the flow path, and a heating element, upstream of the wick, for heating inlet air from the air inlet to generate a flow of heated air in the flow path in use. The device is arranged such that, in use, the flow of heated air generated in use passes over the wick to volatilize the liquid to generate, in use, a flow of aerosol in the flow path. The device includes a receiving portion in the flow path, downstream of the wick, for receiving an element for modifying a property of the flow of aerosol. A device including a shield element to shield the wick from a heating element is also disclosed.
