Definitions

  • the invention relates to a smoke-free cigarette according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • cigarettes usually consist of tobacco wrapped in paper or a tobacco leaf and a filter element attached to the mouthpiece.
  • tobacco burns out and releases nicotine, which is carried along by the smoke to be inhaled by the smoker.
  • tobacco In the combustion of tobacco other substances are released or generated in addition to nicotine, which are often harmful to health, such as tar, arsenic and cadmium compounds and carcinogenic compounds such as hydrazine, chrysene, formaldehyde, Nietrosamine and the like.
  • smoke-free cigarettes are products in which the tobacco is only heated without being burned, so that although the desired nicotine is released, the formation of harmful substances is avoided.
  • disposable nicotine depots for medical purposes are from the WO 2005/053444 A1 known.
  • Another approach to a smoke-free cigarette is in the DE 103 21 379 A1 portrayed. In this smokeless cigarette is heated by means of an electric heater air and the heated air passed through a disposable nicotine depot, in which a predetermined amount of nicotine is added. The nicotine is released by the heated air and inhaled by the user. From the GB 2 191 718 A is a smoke-free cigarette known in which the nicotine is misted with the help of a nebulizer.
  • An essential idea on which the invention is based is the use of at least one carrier substance which is already at normal ambient temperature, that is to say at temperatures which are significantly lower than the usual smoking temperatures, for example at temperatures of less than 50 ° C., at least partially in their Gas phase is present. It is advantageous if the carrier is already present in its gas phase at low temperatures, such as at room temperature, which is usually at 21 ° C, in sufficient quantity.
  • the proportion of the gas phase at a temperature of 21 ° C can be up to 90%. Usually, the proportion is in a range of 10 to 80%, preferably 30 to 60%, particularly preferably at least 50%.
  • the carrier substance must also be suitable in its gas phase to take up the nicotine in sufficient quantity so that the user can take the desired predetermined amount of nicotine when inhaling the gaseous carrier substance. Volatile substances are suitable as carrier substance. Furthermore, the carrier substance can be aromatized simultaneously by flavoring agents or even serve as a flavoring. In addition to the use of a carrier, the use of a mixture of several carriers and / or flavorings is possible.
  • the depot carrier of the disposable nicotine depot according to the invention is again gas-tight, so that an undesirable escape of the gaseous carrier with nicotine from the depot carrier is prevented.
  • a depot carrier is a gas-tight container, for example, from laminated paper or an environmentally friendly plastic.
  • the depot carrier from a carrier material, for example cellulose, which is provided with a gas-tight casing. For the desired enjoyment, the user only has to open the depot carrier and then inhale the escaping carrier substance which has been mixed with nicotine.
  • At Depotn at least one nicotine release section to be opened is provided, which is provided with a depot carrier gas-tight final membrane.
  • a membrane is, for example, a film of an environmentally friendly plastic, a suitable paint, a suitable paint system or protein. To release nicotine only the membrane must be at least partially torn or destroyed, so that the nicotine-added gaseous carrier substance can escape.
  • the depot carrier is provided with a gas-tightness-producing membrane, which cooperates with a triggering device such that the membrane is opened or destroyed during proper operation of the triggering device of the depot carrier for nicotine release.
  • a triggering device is either an embedded in the membrane activation pin, which destroys the membrane for nicotine release by a movement relative to the depot carrier.
  • the depot carrier with a gas-impermeable membrane.
  • a gas-impermeable membrane This has the particular advantage that particularly cost-effective materials can be used for the depot carrier, such as a sleeve of paper, which is coated accordingly.
  • the depot carrier is preferably sleeve-shaped and is at least partially filled with a carrier material containing the nicotine and the carrier substance. In this way, a uniform distribution of the carrier substance and nicotine in the depot carrier is ensured.
  • a carrier material is for example Zellusloseacetat that is mixed with the carrier and nicotine.
  • the depot carrier itself is made of a carrier material and correspondingly gas-tight encased by a membrane.
  • the above-described disposable nicotine depot can either be designed as a separate insert, which can be inserted in a receptacle for a disposable nicotine depot of a multiple-use smokeless cigarette. Alternatively, however, it is also possible to integrate the disposable nicotine depot in the smoke-free cigarette, so that the smoke-free cigarette can be disposed of after consumption together with the disposable nicotine depot.
  • the disposable nicotine depot itself is not provided with a triggering device, it is proposed to provide an activation device designed to open the gas-tight nicotine depot on the smokeless cigarette. This is particularly advantageous if the nicotine depot is integrated into the smoke-free cigarette.
  • the depot carrier of the nicotine depot has a nicotine release section to be opened, which is provided with a depot carrier gastight final membrane
  • a sharp-edged separating element which in a relative movement between the membrane and the separator at least partially destroys the membrane to release nicotine.
  • a separating element for example in the form of a cutting edge or a sharp-edged toothing, on the one hand is easy to form and on the other hand enables a simple and trouble-free opening of the membrane on the other hand.
  • the relative movement can be effected by axial penetration of the separating element into the membrane, optionally by a supporting rotational movement.
  • the invention proposes to arrange the depot carrier between two sharp-edged separating elements, which is closed only at its the dividing elements facing portions each with a membrane. To release nicotine only the distance between the separating elements must be reduced so that the separating elements penetrate into the membranes and destroy them at least partially.
  • the cigarette body is formed from two sleeves, which are to be connected to each other, preferably by nesting, releasably.
  • one of the two separating elements is provided, so that when assembling the sleeves, the membranes of the disposable nicotine depot, which is arranged between the separating elements, are at least partially destroyed by the release elements for nicotine release.
  • two inserts are inserted into the sleeve-shaped cigarette body, on each of which one of Dividers is provided while the disposable nicotine depot is positioned between the two inserts in the cigarette body.
  • one of Dividers is provided while the disposable nicotine depot is positioned between the two inserts in the cigarette body.
  • the insert for activating the nicotine release merely has to be introduced further into the cigarette body.
  • This described solution is characterized on the one hand by a very simple production, while at the same time it is very easy for the user to use. With appropriate training of the cigarette body and the inserts, for example, a plastic or metal, the smoke-free cigarette is reusable and the disposable nicotine depot can be easily removed from the cigarette and replaced by a new disposable nicotine depot.
  • a filter insert with a predetermined draw resistance is held in the mouthpiece.
  • a filter material is conventional cellulose acetate.
  • the Fig. 1 and 2 show in longitudinal section a first embodiment of a smoke-free cigarette according to the invention 10.

  • a filter cartridge 18 is further held from cellulose acetate.
  • insert 20 is inserted from cardboard, which is also provided with a cutting edge 22 in which, however, no filter cartridge is held.
  • the insert 20 is held slightly displaceable in the cigarette body 12.
  • a disposable nicotine depot 24 is received in the cigarette body.
  • the nicotine depot 24 is formed from a depot carrier 26 which has a tube 28 made of a paper material and a carrier material 30 received therein.
  • the carrier material 30 is wetted with a volatile carrier substance, which is already partially gaseous at room temperature and serves as a carrier substance for a likewise introduced into the carrier material 30, predetermined amount of nicotine.
  • the depot carrier 26 is additionally encased with a gas-tight membrane 32 designed as a lamination, which in particular also closes the sleeve-shaped tube 28 at its two open ends.
  • the user now only has to press the displaceable insert 20 into the cigarette body 12, the nicotine depot 24 being pressed against the separating blade 16 of the first insert 14. With a corresponding reduction in the distance between the two cutting edges 16 and 22 finally penetrate the two separating blades 16 and 22 in the membrane 32 of the nicotine depot 24 and open the hitherto gas-tight nicotine depot 24.
  • the user can now serve as a mouthpiece end of the cigarette body 12th into the mouth and take the nicotine dose.
  • the components dr cigarette 10 are made of cardboard or paper.
  • the components, such as cigarette body 12 or the inserts 14 and 20 may also be made of plastic or Be made of metal.
  • the disposable nicotine depot 24 is removed from the cigarette body 12 after consumption and replaced with a new disposable nicotine depot 24.
