The aerosol-generating device 100 is further provided with a longitudinally extending chamber 40, the chamber 40 is configured to receive an aerosol-generating article 200 that is used with the aerosol-generating device 100, and when the aerosol-generating article 200 is received in the chamber 40, at least a portion of the aerosol-generating article 200 is positioned in the heating assembly 30, so that the heating assembly 30 can heat the aerosol-generating article 200, and a portion of the active material that is filled in the aerosol-generating article 200 is volatilized by heating to generate an aerosol, which can be sucked by a user by sucking the aerosol-generating article 200. Wherein the power supply unit 10 is a rechargeable battery cell or a non-rechargeable battery cell.
The aerosol-generating article 200 preferably employs a tobacco-containing material that releases volatile compounds from the article upon heating, or may be a non-tobacco material capable of being heated and thereafter adapted for electrically heated smoking. The aerosol-generating article 200 preferably employs a solid substrate that may comprise one or more of a powder, granules, shredded strips, ribbons or flakes of one or more of vanilla leaf, tobacco leaf, homogenized tobacco, expanded tobacco, or the solid substrate may contain additional volatile flavor compounds of tobacco or non-tobacco to be released upon heating of the substrate.
As shown in fig. 2 and 3, the heating assembly 30 comprises a heating tube 31 and a heating element 32 attached to an outer wall of the heating tube 31, the heating tube 31 having a first open end 312 and a second open end 313 disposed opposite each other, and a receiving cavity 314 extending between the first open end 312 and the second open end 313, at least a portion of the aerosol-generating article 200 being receivable in the receiving cavity 314 through the first open end 312 when the aerosol-generating article 200 is received in the chamber 40, that is, the first open end 312 being accessible as an inlet for the aerosol-generating article 200 into the receiving cavity 314. The heating element 32 is energized to generate heat, and the heat generated by the heating element 32 is transferred to the aerosol-generating article 200 via the heating tube 31 to heat the outer surface of the aerosol-generating article 200. In some embodiments, the heating element 32 is attached to the inner wall or interior of the heating tube 31.
It should be noted that the aerosol-generating article 200 is generally in the shape of a cigarette, and has a top portion and a bottom portion disposed opposite to each other along its length, the top portion being for the user to inhale, and the solid matrix filled in the aerosol-generating article 200 is exposed at the bottom portion, and the outer surface of the aerosol-generating article 200 is a surface extending between the top portion and the bottom portion, and when the user inhales, external air may enter the aerosol-generating article 200 from the bottom portion.
The heating assembly 30 further comprises a heat conducting member 33 at least partially disposed in the receiving cavity 314, in particular, the heat conducting member 33 is fittable into the heating tube 31 from the second open end 313 of the heating tube 31, the heat conducting member 33 has a first surface 331 and a second surface 332 disposed opposite each other, the first surface 331 is configured to support the aerosol-generating article 200 received in the receiving cavity 314, and when the heating element 32 is energized, heat from the heating element 32 is transferred to the heating tube 31, such that the heat conducting member 33 receives and transfers a portion of the heat from the heating tube 31, thereby causing the heat conducting member 33 to heat the bottom of the aerosol-generating article 200.
Alternatively, in some embodiments, the first surface 331 may not support the aerosol-generating article 200, for example, a raised surface (not shown) may extend from an inner wall of the heating tube 31, and when the aerosol-generating article 200 is received in the receiving cavity 314, the bottom of the aerosol-generating article 200 abuts against the raised surface, such that the raised surface provides support to the aerosol-generating article 200, and the heat-conducting member 33 is maintained at a suitable predetermined distance from the bottom of the aerosol-generating article 200, in such a way that the heat-conducting member 33 may also transfer heat to the aerosol-generating article 200.
It will be readily appreciated that the heating tube 31 and the heat conducting member 33 are both made of a material having a relatively high thermal conductivity, so as to efficiently conduct the heat generated by the heating element 32 to the aerosol-generating article 200. The material of the heating pipe 31 and the heat conductive member 33 may be a metal or a ceramic material, and the ceramic material may be any one of oxide, nitride, carbide, boride, and the like. Since the heat conducting member 33 needs to transfer the heat of the heating pipe 31 again, the heat conducting member 33 needs to be made of a material having a higher thermal conductivity, and preferably, when the thermal conductivity of the heat conducting member 33 is not lower than 150W/(m·k), the heat conducting member 33 can effectively transfer the heat to the aerosol-generating article 200, and the bottom of the aerosol-generating article 200 is preferably heated.
In some embodiments, the material of the thermally conductive member 33 is graphite, the graphite having a thermal conductivity of not less than 150W/(mK), or in some embodiments, the material of the thermally conductive member 33 is an aluminum alloy having a thermal conductivity of not less than 200W/(mK), or the material of the thermally conductive member 33 may be copper, the copper having a thermal conductivity of not less than 380W/(mK).
With the heating assembly 30 provided in this embodiment, the heating pipe 31 and the heat conducting member 33 can heat the outer surface and the bottom of the aerosol-generating article 200 respectively, so that the aerosol-generating article 200 can be heated more sufficiently and uniformly, and the suction taste of the user can be effectively improved. Meanwhile, the heat conducting piece 33 effectively transfers the heat of the heating element 32, so that the heat loss can be reduced, and the power consumption of the heating assembly 30 can be further reduced.
It should be noted that, since the heating tube 31 heats the outer surface of the aerosol-generating article 200, the heating tube 31 may also be referred to as a circumferential heating member, and the heat conducting member 33 heats the bottom of the aerosol-generating article 200, and thus the heat conducting member 33 may also be referred to as a bottom heating member. By adjusting the maximum heating temperature of the heating pipe 31 and the heat conducting member 33, the aerosol-generating article 200 can be heated sufficiently and uniformly, and thus the aerosol with better taste can be released, preferably, the maximum heating temperature of the heating pipe 31 is between 200 ℃ and 300 ℃, and the maximum heating temperature of the heat conducting member 33 is between 150 ℃ and 200 ℃.
The heating element 32 preferably employs an infrared electrothermal film layer coated on the outer wall or the inner wall of the heating tube 31, and the infrared electrothermal film layer can generate heat after being electrified, and the heat is transferred to the heating tube 31, so that the heating tube 31 heats the outer surface of the aerosol-generating article 200, and on the other hand, the infrared electrothermal film layer is used for receiving electric power to generate heat, so as to generate infrared rays with a certain wavelength, and when the wavelength of the infrared rays is matched with the absorption wavelength of the aerosol-generating article 200, the infrared energy is easily absorbed by the aerosol-generating article 200, so that heat is generated on the aerosol-generating article 200, and the aerosol-generating article 200 can be further heated.
In other embodiments, the heating element 32 may be a mesh-shaped resistance heating element wrapped on the outer wall of the heating tube 31, and the mesh-shaped resistance heating element may generate heat when energized, and then transfer the heat to the heating tube 31. Or in some embodiments the heating element 32 is a resistive film layer printed on the outer wall of the heating tube 31 in the form of thick film heat. Or in some embodiments, the heating element 32 employs a flexible polyimide heater.
The heating tube 31 in the above embodiment heats the aerosol-generating article 200 by transferring heat from the heating element 32. In some embodiments, the heating tube 31 may also itself generate heat to heat the aerosol-generating article 200. Specifically, the heating tube 31 may be made of an electrothermal material, the heating tube 31 is electrically connected to the main board 20 through an electrode lead, the main board 20 controls the power supply unit 10 to supply electric energy to the heating tube 31, and the heating tube 31 obtains the electric energy to generate heat.
Or in some embodiments, an induction coil (not shown) is wound on the outer wall of the heating tube 31 or a bracket outside the outer wall, the controller controls the power supply unit 10 to supply alternating current to the induction coil, the induction coil generates a changing magnetic field under the action of the alternating current, the changing magnetic field penetrates the heating tube 31 to further enable the heating tube 31 to induce eddy currents, and the heating tube 31 generates heat under the action of eddy current effect and hysteresis effect, so that the aerosol-generating article 200 can be heated.
In order to induce eddy currents on the heating tube 31, the material of the heating tube 31 may be any one of graphite, molybdenum, silicon carbide, stainless steel, niobium, aluminum, nickel, iron, copper, a nickel-containing compound, titanium, and a metal material composite. In some embodiments, to better induce eddy currents to increase heating efficiency, the material of the heating tube 31 is preferably a ferromagnetic material or is composed of a ferromagnetic material, such as ferrite iron, ferromagnetic alloys (e.g., ferromagnetic steel or stainless steel), ferromagnetic particles, and ferrite.
In some embodiments, as shown in fig. 3, the heating element 32 includes a first heating element 321 and a second heating element 322 spaced apart along the length of the heating tube 31, the first heating element 321 is correspondingly provided with a first electrode coating 3211 and a second electrode coating (not shown) spaced apart from each other and extending longitudinally, and the first heating element 321 is located between the first electrode coating 3211 and the second electrode coating, and likewise, the second heating element 322 is correspondingly provided with a third electrode coating 3221 and a fourth electrode coating (not shown) spaced apart from each other and extending longitudinally, and when the heating element 32 is an infrared electrothermal film layer, the corresponding electrode coatings may be printed on the surface of the infrared electrothermal film layer by printing, and the printed electrodes may be connected to the main board 20 by means of welding wires or metal sheets, so that the main board 20 controls the supply of electric power to the first heating element 321 and the second heating element 322, respectively.
The first heating element 321 is located above the second heating element 322 such that the first heating element 321 is used to heat the outer surface of the aerosol-generating article 200 and the second heating element 322 is used to heat the bottom of the aerosol-generating article 200. The heat generated by the first heating element 321 is transferred to the heating tube 31, so that the heating tube 31 heats the outer surface of the aerosol-generating article 200, and the heat generated by the second heating element 322 is transferred to the heating tube 31, then transferred to the heat conducting member 33 by the heating tube 31, and then heated by the heat conducting member 33 to the bottom of the aerosol-generating article 200.
And, in some embodiments, the maximum heating temperatures that can be reached by the first heating element 321 and the second heating element 322 during heating are different, the first heating element 321 having a maximum heating temperature greater than 250 ℃, preferably the first heating element 321 having a maximum heating temperature of 260 ℃ to 270 ℃, and the second heating element 322 having a maximum heating temperature less than 250 ℃, preferably the second heating element 322 having a maximum temperature of 220 ℃ to 230 ℃, so that the aerosol-generating article 200 can be sufficiently heated to release an aerosol with a better mouthfeel. The maximum heating temperature of the first heating element 321 being greater than the maximum heating temperature of the second heating element 322 may better preheat the aerosol-generating article 200 so that the aerosol-generating article 200 has a better smoke volume in the first few mouths of the puff.
And, in some embodiments, the second electrode coating and the fourth electrode coating may be independently disposed so as not to be in electrical communication with each other, where the first heating element 321 and the second heating element 322 each have two independent electrodes, or in some embodiments, the second electrode coating and the fourth electrode coating are in electrical communication with each other, where the second electrode coating and the fourth electrode coating may act as negative electrodes for the electrodes and are shared by the first heating element 321 and the second heating element 322.
And, in some embodiments, when the heating element 32 is an infrared electrothermal film layer coated on the heating tube 31, the size of the area over which the first heating element 321 and the second heating element 322 are coated also has an effect on the adequate heating of the aerosol-generating article 200. Preferably, the area of the first heating element 321 coated is substantially the same size as the area of the second heating element 322 coated, which is advantageous for fully heating the aerosol-generating article 200.
Further in some embodiments, the first heating element 321 and the second heating element 322 may heat simultaneously or may heat independently. Preferably, the controller controls the first heating element 321 and the second heating element 322 to heat independently, so that during the front period of the heating cycle, the controller may control the first heating element 321 to output a larger power, so that the first heating element 321 heats up quickly, and thus heats the side of the aerosol-generating article 200 quickly, and control the second heating element 322 to output a smaller power, so that the second heating element 322 heats up slowly, and thus heats the bottom of the aerosol-generating article 200 slowly.
And at a later time of the heating cycle, the controller may control the first heating element 321 to output less power to maintain the temperature of the aerosol-generating article 200, and control the second heating element 322 to output more power to cause the second heating element 322 to begin to rapidly warm up and thus begin to rapidly heat the bottom of the aerosol-generating article 200. Thus, by providing the first heating element 321 and the second heating element 322 as separate controls, the heating element 32 can be flexibly controlled to heat the aerosol-generating article 200 to an optimal temperature, thereby producing an aerosol with a better mouthfeel for the user to inhale.
And, in some embodiments, to enable the aerosol-generating article 200 to produce an aerosol with a better mouthfeel, the controller may control the first heating element 321 to begin heating in preference to the second heating element 322, or the controller may control the first heating element 321 to reach a maximum heating temperature in preference to the second heating element 322.
It is noted that in some embodiments, as shown in fig. 4, only one heating element 32 may be provided, where the heating element 32 extends substantially between the first surface 331 and the second surface 332 so as to be able to surround at least a portion of the heat conducting member 33, and where the heating element 32 need only be provided with a pair of electrodes 34.
In some embodiments, as shown in fig. 2, the aerosol-generating device 100 includes an air inlet 50 for the external air to enter, and an air flow channel 60 communicating with the air inlet 50, the heat conducting member 33 further includes a plurality of air channels 333 communicating with the first surface 331 and the second surface 332, the air channels 333 being in communication with the air flow channel 60, and when a user draws on the aerosol-generating article 200, the external air can enter the aerosol-generating article 200 from the bottom of the aerosol-generating article 200 through the air channels 60 and the air channels 333, thereby carrying the aerosol generated by the thermal volatilization in the aerosol-generating article 200 for inhalation by the user. When the outside air flows through the air passage 333, the heat conducting member 33 heats the outside air, and when the heated outside air forms a hot air flow into the aerosol-generating article 200, the aerosol-generating article 200 can be heated, and the heating efficiency can be improved.
Alternatively, the air passage 333 may not be connected to the outside air, and when the heating unit 30 is installed in the aerosol-generating device, the air flow flowing through the air passage 333 is air remaining inside the aerosol-generating device, and the outside air enters through the air inlet hole of the aerosol-generating article 200 itself, and when the user sucks on the aerosol-generating article 200, the remaining air flows through the air passage to be heated by the heat conductive member 33, thereby forming a hot air flow to heat the aerosol-generating article 200. Further in some embodiments, when the heating element 31 is coupled to the heating tube 31, at least a portion of the area of the first surface 331 of the heat conducting member 33 extending toward the second surface 332 is surrounded by the heating element 32, thereby allowing the heat conducting member 33 to better receive and transfer heat from the heating tube 31. And, in some embodiments, the length of the surrounded area along the axial direction of the heating tube 31 is at least 5cm, and if the length of the heat conducting member 33 surrounded by the heating element 32 is insufficient, the heat on the heat conducting member 33 is insufficient to heat the bottom of the aerosol-generating article 200 well, which in turn affects the concentration of the aerosol, resulting in poor smoking feel for the user.
Or in some embodiments, when the heating element 32 is comprised of a first heating element 321 and a second heating element 322, where the first heating element 321 is wrapped around the outer surface of the aerosol-generating article 200 and the second heating element 322 is wrapped around the thermally conductive member 33, at least a portion of the area of the first surface 331 of the thermally conductive member 33 extending toward the second surface 332 is wrapped around by the second heating element 322.
In some embodiments, as shown in fig. 5, to avoid that the solid substrate remaining after heating in the aerosol-generating article 200 falls in the air channel 333, which is detrimental to cleaning the heating component 30, the heat conducting member 33 removes the air channel 333 and a recess 3311 is provided in the first surface 331, the first surface 331 providing support for the bottom of the aerosol-generating article 200, the bottom of the aerosol-generating article 200 and the recess 3311 defining a space for storing air when the aerosol-generating article 200 is supported on the first surface 331, and when the space is in communication with the outside air, the outside air may enter the recess 3311, that is to say into the space 3311 and thus into the aerosol-generating article 200 through the gap between the heating tube 31 and the aerosol-generating article 200. Meanwhile, when the external air flows through the space 3311, the external air may be heated by the heat conductive member 33 to form a hot air flow, which may also play a role in heating when entering the aerosol-generating article 200.
Alternatively, in some embodiments, the space 3311 may not be in communication with the outside air, and when the heating assembly 30 is installed in the aerosol-generating device, the air flow flowing through the space 3311 is air trapped inside the aerosol-generating device, and the outside air enters through the air inlet holes of the aerosol-generating article 200 itself, and when the user draws on the aerosol-generating article 200, the trapped air flows through the space 3311 and is heated by the heat-conducting member 33, thereby forming a hot air flow to heat the aerosol-generating article 200.
And, in some embodiments, as shown in fig. 5, in order to guide the external air into the above-mentioned groove 3311, the groove wall of the groove 3311 is provided with through holes 3312, and the through holes 3312 may be provided in plurality and spaced apart from each other in the circumferential direction so as to guide more external air into the groove 3311.
And, in some embodiments, as shown in FIG. 5, the grooves 3311 need to have a suitable depth d, and if the depth d of the grooves 3311 is too great, the grooves 3311 may correspond to an air medium layer that may act as a heat insulator, thereby affecting the heating effect of the heat conductive member 33 on the bottom of the aerosol-generating article 200, preferably the depth d of the grooves 3311 is not more than 1.5mm to avoid the grooves 3311 forming an air medium layer, or more preferably the depth d of the grooves 3311 is not more than 1mm.
In some embodiments, as shown in fig. 7 and 8, to fix the heat conducting member 33 in the heating tube 31, an extending wall 3321 longitudinally extends from the second surface 332, a slot 3323 is formed on an outer surface of the extending wall 3321, a through hole 311 is correspondingly formed on a tube wall of the heating tube 31, when the heat conducting member 33 is accommodated in the heating tube 31, the slot 3323 is correspondingly communicated with the through hole 311, and the heating assembly 30 further includes a connecting member 3324 for connecting the heat conducting member 33 and the heating tube 31, specifically, the connecting member 3323 may be inserted into the slot 3323 from the outside of the heating assembly 30 through the through hole 311, and then the heat conducting member 33 and the heating tube 31 are connected, so that the heat conducting member 33 is fixed in the heating tube 31.
As shown in fig. 7, the second surface 332 and the extending wall 3321 define an insulation space 3322, and the heating element 32 extends between the first surface 331 and the second surface 332, that is, the heating element 32 and the extending wall 3321 are not overlapped in the longitudinal direction, and due to the insulation space 3322, heat of the heated region of the heat conducting member 33 is difficult to be transferred outwards, which is advantageous for maintaining heat of the heat conducting member 33.
Further in some embodiments, as shown in fig. 7, the inner surface of the extension wall 3321 is formed with a boss 3325, the slot 3323 extends into the boss 3325, and the connecting piece 3323 can be inserted into the slot 3323 more so as to connect the heat conducting piece 33 and the heating tube 31 more stably.
It should be noted that, the slot 3323 may not be disposed on the extension wall 3321, and in some embodiments, the slot 3323 may be disposed on an outer surface between the first surface 331 and the second surface 332 of the heat conducting member 33, where the slot 3323 needs to avoid the air channel 333, so that the hot air in the air channel 333 leaks through the slot 3323, thereby reducing the heating efficiency of the heat conducting member 33.
It should be noted that, in some embodiments, the heating tube 31 is attached with the heating element 32 such as the infrared electrothermal coating, the heat generated by the heating element 32 is used to heat the outer surface of the aerosol-generating article 200, and a separate heating element is disposed in the heat conducting member 33, as shown in fig. 9, a central heating member 334 is disposed in a central area of the heat conducting member 33, the central heating member 334 has an electrode lead 3341, the electrode lead 3341 is electrically connected to the motherboard 20, and the controller can control the power supply unit 10 to supply electric energy to the central heating member 334, so that the central heating member 334 can generate heat by obtaining electric energy. The central heating member 334 penetrates the first surface 331 and the second surface 332 of the heat conducting member 33, and the end portion of the central heating member 334 is configured in a pin shape or a sheet shape so that the central heating member 334 is inserted into the aerosol-generating article 200 for heating. In this case, the heating element 32 is wound around the heating tube 31 while avoiding the heat-conducting member 33.
Or in some embodiments the central heating element 334 does not protrude from the first surface 331, the central heating element 334 being primarily for heating air in the air channel 333, and the heated air forming a hot air flow from the heated air for heating the bottom of the aerosol-generating article 200.
It should finally be noted that the above embodiments are only intended to illustrate the technical solution of the present application and not to limit it, that the technical features of the above embodiments or of the different embodiments may be combined in any order, and that many other variations in the different aspects of the present application as described above exist, which are not provided in details for the sake of brevity, and that although the application has been described in the detailed description with reference to the foregoing embodiments, it should be understood by those skilled in the art that it may still make modifications to the technical solution described in the foregoing embodiments or equivalent to some of the technical features thereof, where these modifications or substitutions do not depart from the essence of the corresponding technical solution from the scope of the technical solution of the embodiments of the present application.
