An embodiment of the present disclosure provides a smoking article including a smoking material portion which is wrapped with a smoking material wrapper, a filter portion which has an upstream end combined with the smoking material portion and is wrapped with a filter wrapper, and a tipping paper which wraps around the filter portion and at least a portion of the smoking material portion so that the smoking material portion and the filter portion are combined, wherein a design printing layer, an overprint (OP) coating layer, and a sweetener coating layer are disposed on a surface of the tipping paper.

A method of manufacturing an aerosol generating article includes: providing a tobacco rod including a susceptor having a form in which a plurality of strands are twisted together; providing a filter rod arranged at one end of the tobacco rod; and wrapping the tobacco rod and the filter rod with a wrapper.

An aerosol-generating article is provided for producing an inhalable aerosol upon heating, the article including: a rod of aerosol-generating substrate; a downstream section at a location downstream of the rod and including: a support element located immediately downstream of the rod and being in longitudinal alignment with the rod and including a first hollow tubular segment, and an aerosol cooling element immediately downstream of the support element and in longitudinal alignment with the support element and the rod, the aerosol-cooling element including a second hollow tubular segment; a ventilation zone at a location along the second hollow tubular segment; and an upstream section at a location upstream of the rod and including an upstream element positioned immediately upstream of the rod and having a resistance-to-draw (RTD) of less than 80 millimetres H.sub.2O, in which the article has a ventilation level of at least 10 percent.

A peelable tobacco includes: an aroma volatilizing area (11), which is configured to volatilize aroma when being heated, wherein the aroma volatilizing area (11) is wrapped with a first packaging paper (1); a filter area (21), which is disposed at an upper portion of the aroma volatilizing area (11), wherein the filter area (21) is wrapped with a second packaging paper (2); and a connecting pre-breakable paper (3), which is connected to an upper portion of the first packaging paper (1) and to a lower portion of the second packaging paper (2), wherein the connecting pre-breakable paper (3) is able to be broken when suffering an external force.

The invention provides a material which comprises a paper substrate and a nonwoven substrate having a low density which can be used as filter for a smoking or vaping article.

A smoking product includes: a smoking material portion which is wrapped by a smoking material wrapper; a filter portion whose upstream end portion is combined with the smoking material portion, which includes a capsule containing a flavoring, and which is wrapped by a filter wrapper; and a tipping wrapper which surrounds at least a partial region of the smoking material portion and the filter portion so that the smoking material portion and the filter portion are combined, wherein the tipping wrapper includes a first perforation region including a plurality of perforations formed along an outer circumferential surface of the tipping wrapper and a second perforation region including a plurality of perforations formed downstream of the first perforation region and along the outer circumferential surface of the tipping wrapper, and the capsule is disposed downstream of the first perforation region and upstream of the second perforation region.

The present invention relates to an article (10). The article comprises an aerosol-generating substrate (12) and a region (14) positioned longitudinally relative to the aerosol generating substrate. The region comprises a rod segment (16) formed from a plurality of elongate strips (17) of sheet material (18) extending longitudinally through said rod segment. The present invention also relates to a segment of sheet material for a rod segment. The segment of sheet material comprises a segment of a web (44) of sheet material (18) of discrete length comprising a plurality of elongate strips (17) and a band (22) of sheet material extending transversely to the plurality of elongate strips. The plurality of elongate strips extend from the band of sheet material. The present invention also relates to an apparatus (40) for manufacturing rod segments and a method of forming a rod segment.

An aerosol-generating rod segment is provided, including: a rod-shaped susceptor casing; and an aerosol-forming gel contained in the rod-shaped susceptor casing, in which the rod-shaped susceptor casing includes a bottom, a side wall, and an opening arranged opposite the bottom, in which the aerosol-forming gel is retained inside the rod-shaped susceptor casing in axial direction of the aerosol-generating rod segment by at least one positive locking means, in which the side wall of the rod-shaped susceptor casing is corrugated, in which at least one of the at least one positive locking means is an inwardly directed seam of the rod-shaped susceptor casing arranged adjacent to an end section of the rod-shaped susceptor casing, the end section being arranged opposite the bottom of the rod-shaped susceptor casing, and in which the inwardly directed seam is formed by an inwardly bent end portion of the side wall of the rod-shaped susceptor casing.

The present disclosure relates to a consumable for use in an assembly for generating an inhalable medium. It also relates to an aerosol generating assembly including a consumable, a method of generating an inhalable medium, use of a vapor and/or aerosol and a kit.

The present invention relates to an aerosol-generating article used together with an aerosol-generating device including a cigarette rod having a cavity segment filled with tobacco granules; and filter rod positioned downstream of the cigarette rod, wherein the cigarette rod includes a flavoring source.
