Embodiment Construction

[0080] figure 1 An aerosol-generating article 10 according to a first embodiment of the invention is shown. The aerosol-generating article 10 is a filter cigarette comprising an aerosol-generating substrate 12 in the form of a wound tobacco rod and a mouthpiece 14 comprising a single segment of filter material 16 axially aligned with the tobacco rod. along figure 1 The downstream end of the tobacco rod adjoins the upstream end of the mouthpiece 14 as shown in line 18 .

[0081] A tipping wrapper 20 comprising rows of perforations forming a line of weakness 22 is wrapped around the mouthpiece 14 and a portion of the tobacco rod such that an upstream tipping wrapper portion 24 extends upstream from the line of weakness 22 and the tipping wrapper is removable. A paper portion 26 extends downstream from the line of weakness 22 . Only the upstream tipping wrapper portion 24 is glued to the lower portion of the tobacco rod and the mouthpiece 14 . The removable tip wrapper portio...

Abstract

An aerosol generating article (10) comprises an aerosol generating substrate (12), a mouthpiece (14) in axial alignment with the aerosol generating substrate (12), and a tipping wrapper (20). The tipping wrapper (20) comprises a first weakening line (22) extending circumferentially around at least a portion of the tipping wrapper; a removable tipping wrapper portion (26) extending downstream fromthe at least one weakening line (22); an upstream tipping wrapper portion (24) extending upstream from the first weakening line; and a longitudinal edge (28) extending along the outer surface of the mouthpiece. The longitudinal edge (28) comprises a tipping wrapper projection (32) downstream of the at least one weakening line (22) and a first straight line portion (30) extending upstream of the tipping wrapper projection (32), wherein the tipping wrapper projection (32) comprises a first curved transition portion (38) connecting the first straight line portion (30) to the remainder of the tipping wrapper projection and wherein the first curved transition portion (30) follows a convex curve.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to an aerosol-generating article comprising a removable tip wrapper portion having a novel tear tab arrangement. Background technique [0002] Filter cigarettes generally include a cylindrical rod of tobacco cut filler surrounded by a wrapper, and a cylindrical filter axially aligned in abutting end-to-end relationship with the wound tobacco rod. Cylindrical filters generally consist of filter material surrounded by a mouthpiece wrap. Conventionally, the coiled tobacco rod and filter are joined by a strip of tipping wrapper paper which generally encircles the entire length of the filter and adjacent portions of the coiled tobacco rod. Conventional filter cigarettes are usually smoked by lighting the end of the cigarette opposite the mouthpiece so that the tobacco rod burns. [0003] A number of aerosol-generating articles in which tobacco is heated rather than burned have also been proposed in the art. In heated aerosol...
