example 1

[0072] According to a first example of the invention, the diameter 301 of the capsule 205 is about 3.5 mm, the diameter 303 of the filter segment 201 inside the filter wrapper is about 6.41 mm and the diameter of the filter segment 201 outside the filter wrapper It is about 7.21mm. A cigarette (which may be referred to as a slim cigarette) incorporating the filter has a diameter of about 7.35 mm. In this embodiment, the cross-sectional area of ​​the capsule is about 30% of the cross-sectional area of ​​the filter segment. In this example, the cigarette may have a length of about 97 mm or about 83 mm. In this embodiment, the filter may have a length of about 27mm or about 32mm, and the tipping paper may have a length of about 32mm or about 36mm. The circumferential row of perforations may be located at least about 11 mm, preferably about 18 mm, from the mouth end, and the center of the capsule may be about 13.5 mm from the mouth end.

example 2

[0074] According to a second example of the invention, the diameter 301 of the capsule 205 is about 3.5 mm, the diameter 303 of the filter segment 201 inside the filter wrapper is about 6.19 mm and the diameter of the filter segment 201 outside the filter wrapper It is about 6.99mm. A cigarette (which may be referred to as a slim cigarette) incorporating the filter has a diameter of about 7.10 mm. In this embodiment, the cross-sectional area of ​​the capsule is about 32% of the cross-sectional area of ​​the filter segment. In this example, the cigarette may have a length of about 97 mm or about 83 mm. In this embodiment, the filter may have a length of about 27mm or about 32mm, and the tipping paper may have a length of about 32mm or about 36mm. The circumferential row of perforations may be located at least about 11 mm, preferably about 18 mm, from the mouth end, and the center of the capsule may be about 13.5 mm from the mouth end.

example 3

[0076] According to a third example of the invention, the diameter 301 of the capsule 205 is about 3.5 mm, the diameter 303 of the filter segment 201 inside the filter wrapper is about 6.09 mm and the diameter of the filter segment 201 outside the filter wrapper It is about 6.89mm. A cigarette (which may be referred to as a slim cigarette) incorporating the filter has a diameter of about 7.00 mm. In this embodiment, the cross-sectional area of ​​the capsule is about 33% of the cross-sectional area of ​​the filter segment. In this example, the cigarette may have a length of about 97 mm or about 83 mm. In this embodiment, the filter may have a length of about 27mm or about 32mm, and the tipping paper may have a length of about 32mm or about 36mm. The circumferential row of perforations may be located at least about 11 mm, preferably about 18 mm, from the mouth end, and the center of the capsule may be about 13.5 mm from the mouth end.

Abstract

There is provided a filter (103) for a smoking article (100). The filter (103) comprises a filter segment (201) comprising filter material, and the filter segment (201) has a cross sectional area measured perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of the filter (103). The filter further comprises a flavour delivery member (205) embedded in the filter segment (201) and surrounded on all sides by the filter material (203). The flavour delivery member (205) comprises structural material enclosing liquid flavourant for flavouring smoke during smoking of a smoking article provided with the filter (103), and the flavour delivery member (205) releases at least a portion of the liquid flavourant when the filter (103) is subjected to external force. The cross sectional area of the flavour delivery member (205) measured perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of the filter (103) is about 30% of the cross sectional area of the filter segment (201) or greater.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to filters for smoking articles and smoking articles comprising filters. Background technique [0002] Combustible smoking articles, such as cigarettes, generally include cut tobacco (usually in the form of cut filler) surrounded by paper wrapping material to form a tobacco rod. Cigarettes are used by consumers by lighting one end of the cigarette and causing the tobacco rod to burn. The consumer then receives mainstream smoke by drawing on the opposite end (mouth end or filter end) of the cigarette. The shredded tobacco may be a single type of tobacco or a mixture of two or more types of tobacco. [0003] A number of smoking articles have also been proposed in the art in which the aerosol forming substrate (eg tobacco) is heated rather than combusted. In heated smoking articles, aerosol is produced by heating the aerosol-forming substrate. Known heated smoking articles include, for example, smoking articles in which a...
