Embodiment Construction

[0086] figure 1 A schematic diagram of the aerosol generating system 100 is shown. System 100 includes an aerosol-generating device 102 and an aerosol-generating article 104 . The aerosol-generating article 104 has the shape of an elongated barrel and includes a first container 106 containing a source of a volatile delivery-enhancing compound and a second container 108 containing a source of volatile liquid nicotine. The first container 106 and the second container 108 are arranged in series and are axially aligned with each other. The first container 106 is positioned at the upstream end of the aerosol-generating article 104 . The second container 108 is positioned downstream of the first container 106 . Another element (not shown) in the form of a mouthpiece or the like may be provided at the downstream end of the second container 108 .

[0087] The first container comprises a tubular porous element 109 onto which the volatile transport enhancing compound is adsorbed. T...

Abstract

The present invention relates to an aerosol-generating system (100) comprising an aerosol-generating device (102) in cooperation with an aerosol-generating article (104). The aerosol-generating article (104) comprises at least one container (108) housing a nicotine source and at least two seals (114, 116) sealing the at least one container (108), wherein each seal (114, 116) comprises a deformable material. The aerosol-generating device (102) comprises an outer housing (118) adapted to receive the aerosol-generating article (104) and an elongate piercing member (120) for piercing the at least two seals (114, 116) sealing the at least one container (108). The elongate piercing member (120) comprises a piercing head (122) at a distal end of the elongate piercing member (120) and a hollow shaft portion (124) comprising at least two apertures (128, 130, 132). When the aerosol-generating article (104) is received in the aerosol-generating device (102), at least one aperture (128, 130, 132) is in fluid communication with the at least one container (108).

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to an aerosol-generating system for delivering an aerosol to a user, the aerosol-generating system comprising an aerosol-generating device and an aerosol-generating article, and in particular to such a system for delivering nicotine to a user. Background technique [0002] Aerosol generating systems comprising one or more reusable components and a consumable cartridge are known in the art and include commercially sold electronic cigarettes or electronic vapor products. Such systems can provide nicotine- or flavor-containing aerosols by vaporizing an aerosol-generating liquid. Disadvantages of commercial products may include, for example, liquid leakage, liquid aging, or changes in air flow leading to poor aerosol quality. Contents of the invention [0003] It would be desirable to provide improved aerosol generating systems that avoid one or more of these disadvantages. For example, it is desirable to store an aerosol-...
