Embodiment Construction

[0049] figure 1 The cleaning consumable 10 according to the first embodiment is illustrated. The cleaning consumable 10 includes a solvent eluting matrix 20 , a rigid support element 30 and a tip 40 . These three elements are arranged sequentially and in coaxial alignment and assembled from the rolling paper 50 to form a rod. The strip has a proximal end 12, which terminates at the tip 40, and a distal end 13 at the opposite proximal end of the strip. When assembled, the cleaning consumables 10 have a length of 45 mm and a diameter of 7.2 mm.

[0050] The solvent separation matrix 20 has a length of 20 mm and is placed towards the distal end 13 of the cleaning consumable 10 . The solvent separation matrix 20 comprises a substantially cylindrical porous polyethylene foam, such as The supplied porous wick material. Longitudinally positioned cylindrical cavities or holes 22 are provided in the foam. The pores in the foam are capable of retaining the liquid components of th...

Abstract

A cleaning consumable (10, 310) for cleaning a heating element (290) of an aerosol- generating device (210) comprises a solvent-evolving substrate (20, 320) capable of releasing a cleaning solvent into contact with the heating element when heated by the heating element. The cleaning solvent is capable of dissolving, partially-dissolving, or otherwise chemically interacting with one or more deposit or residue that may be left on the heating element after normal use. The cleaning consumable is dimensioned to engage with the aerosol-generating device such that the heating element can heat the solvent-evolving substrate. In some embodiments the cleaning consumable wipes the heating element as it is removed from engagement with the aerosol-generating device.

Description

technical field [0001] The present description relates to a cleaning consumable for cleaning an aerosol generating device having a heating element, a method of cleaning an aerosol generating device, and an aerosol generating system comprising an aerosol generating device and a cleaning consumable. Background technique [0002] Aerosol-generating articles in which an aerosol-forming substrate is heated rather than combusted for generating an inhalable aerosol are known in the art. The purpose of such heated aerosol-generating articles is to reduce known harmful smoke constituents produced by the combustion and thermal degradation of tobacco in conventional cigarettes. Typically in such heated aerosol-generating articles, the aerosol is generated by transferring heat from a heat source to a physically separate aerosol-forming substrate or material, which may be located within, around, or within the heat source. downstream of the heat source. During puffing, volatile compound...
