Background technique

In the known filter cigarette, the filter may consist of an acetate fiber tow filter plug wound around a porous filter plug cover. Filter cigarette having a multi-component filter comprising two or more segments of filter material for removing particulates and the gas components of mainstream smoke.

Many smoking articles where aerosol-forming substrates, such as tobacco, are heated rather than burned have been proposed in the technology. In heated smoking articles, aerosols are generated by heating an aerosol-forming substrate, wherein the generation of aerosols is via electrical heating, or via the transfer of heat from a combustible fuel element or heat source to the aerosol-forming substrate. During smoking, volatile compounds are released from the aerosol-forming substrate and are entrained in the air inhaled by the smoking article, and the aerosol-forming substrate is heated by heat transfer from the heat source. The released compounds will condense as they cool, forming aerosols for consumers to inhale. Such smoking articles have also been known, in which nicotine-containing aerosols can be produced from tobacco materials, tobacco extracts or other nicotine sources, which do not require combustion and in some cases do not require heating, but for example via chemical reactions .

It is known to incorporate flavor additives into smoking articles to provide additional odor during consumer smoking. Flavors can be used to enhance the odor of tobacco produced when the tobacco material is heated or burned in a smoking article, or to provide an additional non-tobacco odor, such as mint or menthol.

Flavor additives for use in smoking articles, such as menthol, typically take the form of a content fragrance, which is incorporated into a filter or tobacco rod of a smoking article using a suitable content carrier. Content fragrances are usually volatile and therefore may be transferred or evaporated from smoking articles during storage. Therefore, the amount of fragrance used for mainstream smoke odor during smoking is reduced.

It has previously been proposed, for example, to encapsulate perfumes in the form of capsules or microcapsules in order to reduce the loss of perfume volatilization from smoking articles. The encapsulated fragrance may be released before or during the smoking of the smoking article by breaking the encapsulated structure (eg, by crushing or melting the structure). In the case where these capsules are broken to release fragrance, the capsules are broken and released fragrance under a certain force.

In this way, Chinese Patent Publication No. CN104780793A has disclosed a capsule with enclosed contents, which is mainly pressed by the external force F from the two sides in the diameter direction of the capsule 12a to form an internal pressure inside the capsule 12a. The thickness of the capsule 12a is reduced (thin-walled area). Therefore, when the internal pressure of the capsule 12a is applied to the end wall 16, the bottom of the specific V-shaped groove 16 is accurately and easily broken at the center of the central portion 14, thereby making the contents of the capsule 12a The object is ejected from the fractured portion of the V-shaped groove 16 toward the center of the filter element. Please refer to FIG. 1 and FIG. 2 (such as FIG. 2 and FIG. 6 of Patent No. CN104780793A).

However, the capsule of the prior art has a circular shape structure and has only an equal-length diameter. Therefore, when a user applies a force on the capsule 12a, it takes a relatively large amount of force to make the capsule 12a squeeze. Into an oval shape. Furthermore, when the capsule 12a is squeezed to form an internal pressure, although the thickness of each V-shaped groove 16 is thin to form a thin-walled area, each V-shaped groove 16 is integrally formed with the capsule. The user must destroy the thin-walled area to effectively extract the contents of the capsule 12a. It can be known from the above that the structure disclosed in the prior art cannot effectively provide a rupturable capsule. Therefore, the applicant has applied for a capsule with a long and short radial line and a tubular hydrophobic container capable of carrying the capsule, for improving The technical issues mentioned above.

detailed description

The following describes specific embodiments to illustrate various implementations of the present application, but it is not intended to limit the scope of protection required by the present application.

Please refer to FIG. 3 and FIG. 4, which are three-dimensional schematic diagrams of the capsule body and a longitudinal radial compression state diagram of the capsule body in the embodiments of the present application, as shown in the figure. The present application provides a capsule with long and short radial lines, comprising: a capsule body 20, one end of the capsule body 20 is provided with an open end 21, and since the capsule body 20 is an elliptical cylindrical structure, the open end 21 is There is a long radial line 22 (for example, an oval long diameter) and a short radial line 23 (for example, an oval short diameter). The long radial line 22 and the short radial line 23 correspond to each other so that the When the length of the long radial line 22 decreases, the length of the short radial line 23 increases, but if the length of the long radial line 22 increases, the length of the short radial line 23 decreases; however, the capsule In addition to the shape structure of the elliptical column, the body 20 may also be a shape structure having the long radial line 22 and the short radial line 23 such as a rectangular column, a triangular column, and a drop-shaped column. In addition, its radial line is defined as a straight line passing through the center or center between two points on the periphery of a shape.

In addition, the open end 21 and a film 30 are connected to each other to close the open end 21 through the sealing film 30, so that a closed space is formed inside the capsule body 20, so that the sealing film 30 is not integrated with the capsule body 20 It is formed by molding, but the sealing film 30 is connected to the open end 21 by a technique such as adhesive or hot pressing. Therefore, the connection strength of the sealing film 30 and the capsule body 20 is greater than that of the capsule in the prior art. A thin wall is formed to easily open the open end 21 of the capsule body 20, that is, the sealing film 30 only needs to be partially separated from the capsule body 20 to form an open space 24, and the capsule body 20 can be derived. The thin wall integrally formed with the capsule in the prior art must be destroyed in order to open one end of the capsule.

In this way, since the capsule body 20 is made of an elastic material, when a user squeezes the two ends of the long radial line 22, the external force will exert pressure from the outside to the inside, so that the capsule body 20 The diameter and length of the long radial line 22 gradually decrease inward. Conversely, when the length of the long radial line 22 decreases inward, the short radial line 23 expands the length correspondingly outward. Further, the area of the open end 21 is increased. For example, the radius of the long radial line 22 of the original ellipse is 3.7mm, the radius of the short radial line 23 is 2.5mm, and the circumference is 19.66mm, so the area is: S = πab (a is the radius of the long radial line of the ellipse , B is the radius of the short radial line of the ellipse), and S ≒ 29.05mm2 is obtained. A circle with a perimeter of 19.66mm has a diameter of about 6.258mm (the diameter of the circle is the perimeter divided by the perimeter). It can be obtained that the area of the circle is about 30.742mm2 (the area of the circle is equal to the radius multiplied by the perimeter) . In this way, when the long radial line 22 is squeezed by external force to make the open end 21 present a circular or nearly circular shape, its area will increase by about 5.8% (30.742mm2 ÷ 29.05mm2 = 1.058mm2) The sealing film 30 will rupture due to a change in its area, so that the sealing film 30 itself has insufficient area, thereby effectively opening the open end 21 to release the content in the capsule body 20.

Please refer to FIG. 5 and FIG. 6, which are schematic diagrams of the interior of the container and the state of the squeeze state of the container, as shown in the embodiment of the present application. An accommodating space 41 is provided in the containing body 40, and the accommodating space 41 is provided between two ends of the accommodating body 40. A filter body 50 is respectively provided at two ends of the accommodating space 41, and two of the filter bodies 50 are provided. The capsule body 20 may be sandwiched therebetween, however, because the capsule body 20 has the long radial line 22 and the short radial line 23, and the container 40 is made of a transparent material, or the container 40 accommodates the container 40. The capsule body 20 is made of transparent material, and each of the filter bodies 50 is made of non-transparent material. Therefore, when the capsule body 20 is a colored capsule body 20, the capsule body 20 is contained therein. When the contents are displayed, the position of the capsule body 20 can be effectively displayed and known to the user. In addition, the capsule body 20 has the long radial line 22 and the short radial line 23, and the closer to the inside of the container 40 The end portion of the capsule body 20 will more clearly show the position of the end portion. Therefore, the two ends of the long radial line 22 fit on the inside of the container 40 or the one end of the long radial line 22 and the The inner side of the container 40 is attached, and the other end of the long radial line 22 is spaced from the inner side of the container 40, so the Positions of both ends of radial lines 22 will be displayed clearly on the periphery of the container body 40, so that the user knows the location 22 and further both ends of the long radial line.

However, since the capsule body 20 and the container 40 are both made of elastic material, when the user knows the positions of the two ends of the long radial line 22, the position of the two ends When an external force is applied at the corresponding peripheral position of the container 40, the diameter and length of the long radial line 22 of the capsule body 20 gradually decreases inward. Conversely, when the length of the long radial line 22 decreases inward, The short radial line 23 will correspondingly expand the length outward, thereby increasing the area of the open end 21 to effectively tear the sealing film 30, so that part of the sealing film 30 and the open end 21 Separated to form the open space 24, thereby opening the open end 21 to export the content contained in the capsule body 20 into the container 40; moreover, because the content is fully filled into the capsule body 20, when a user applies an external force from the two ends of the long radial line 22, an internal pressure is formed inside the capsule body 20, and when part of the sealing film 30 is torn by the above action At this time, the contents inside the capsule body 20 are sprayed from the inside of the capsule body 20 to the container 40. . This can provide the capsule body 20 which is easy to tear, and can be effectively applied to similar technologies such as drug delivery devices or cigarette filters.

The above detailed description is a specific description of one of the feasible embodiments of this application, but this embodiment is not intended to limit the patent scope of this application. Those skilled in the art can make various changes and modifications to the present invention without departing from the scope of the present invention. Spirit and scope. In this way, if these modifications and variations of the present invention fall within the scope of the claims of the present invention and their equivalent technologies, the present invention also intends to include these modifications and variations.
