Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of heat-not-burn cigarettes, and in particular to a heat-not-burn cigarette with a double-tobacco cartridge for external tobacco and a smoking device. Background Art

[0002] As living standards improve, people are paying more and more attention to their health. In recent years, the health risks of smoking have garnered significant attention. To meet evolving consumer demands, major tobacco companies both domestically and internationally have developed a variety of alternatives to traditional cigarettes. Among these growing categories, heat-not-burn (HNB) cigarettes have been a leader in recent years and are poised to become a hot topic in the global tobacco industry.

[0003] To provide a more comfortable smoking experience, some existing cigarettes incorporate a small liquid capsule, known as a tobacco capsule, into the tobacco filter. These capsules contain liquids containing various flavorings. Typically, these capsules are added to the filter rods of cigarettes or low-temperature cigarettes during production, and then rolled into a cigarette product containing the capsule. Consumers crush the capsule to release the liquid flavoring. When inhaling, the aerosol released by combustion or heating dissipates the liquid flavoring, allowing consumers to experience the various aromas and benefits imparted by the capsule.

[0004] Although the addition of existing tobacco capsules makes the taste of smokers richer and more fragrant when smoking cigarettes, the existing cigarettes with tobacco capsules have the following problems during production and use: 1. Online production of filter rods containing tobacco capsules will increase the difficulty of the filter rod production process, increase equipment investment, and increase the cost of manpower, material resources and materials, and the filter rods containing tobacco capsules will also increase the difficulty of molding when they are rolled into cigarettes; 2. When consumers pinch the tobacco capsules, the physical structure of the acetate fiber bundle inside the filter rod will be destroyed due to improper use methods, resulting in an unstable smoking experience; 3. The tobacco capsules are added to the inside of the cigarette filter rod online at one time, and the flavor cannot be changed, and there is no selectivity; 4. Existing cigarettes with tobacco capsules can only smoke one flavor at a time, and consumers cannot change flavors, so consumers' smoking pleasure and usage experience are poor. Summary of the Invention

[0005] In view of this, the purpose of the present invention is to provide a double-tobacco cartridge heat-not-burn cigarette and smoking device with an external tobacco capsule, which can freely add tobacco capsules when smoking according to the smoker's preferences, with better taste selectivity, better smoking experience for the smoker, lower production difficulty, and the ability to change the taste during smoking, thereby increasing consumers' smoking pleasure and usage experience.

[0006] The present invention solves the above technical problems through the following technical means:

[0007] A double-tobacco capsule-type heat-not-burn cigarette for external tobacco use, the cigarette comprising a first smoking section, a first transition section, a filter section, a second transition section and a second smoking section connected in sequence, the first transition section and the second transition section are both provided with a fracture structure in the circumferential direction of the connection between the filter section and the first transition section; the first transition section and the second transition section are both hollow structures, a first hollow pad is provided inside the first transition section on a side close to the first smoking section, a first ventilation hole is provided on the first hollow pad, a second hollow pad is provided inside the second transition section on a side close to the second smoking section, a second ventilation hole is provided on the second hollow pad.

[0008] Furthermore, the breaking mechanism is a plurality of annularly arranged breaking holes, and the arrangement of the breaking holes enables the cigarette to be broken relatively easily.

[0009] Furthermore, the breaking holes are arranged in two rows in a circular shape. The double rows of breaking holes will make it easier to break the cigarette.

[0010] Furthermore, the number of the first vent holes and the second vent holes is multiple. With the multiple first vent holes and the multiple second vent holes, when the tobacco capsule is placed in the chamber, if there is only one first vent hole or one second vent hole, the tobacco capsule is likely to block the first vent hole or the second vent hole. During the first puff, the first vent hole or the second vent hole is blocked, resulting in poor airflow. However, with the multiple first vent holes or the multiple second vent holes, the tobacco capsule is unlikely to block all of them simultaneously, thus avoiding the problem of poor airflow.

[0011] A double-smoking cartridge heat-not-burn cigarette smoking device for adding tobacco, comprising a suction section, a cigarette cartridge heating device and a power chip device connected in sequence; the suction section is provided with a filter hole vertically penetrating the suction section, and a first connecting tube and a second connecting tube connected to the filter hole are fixedly connected on the side of the suction section close to the cigarette cartridge heating device, the first connecting tube is provided with a first sealing cover, the second connecting tube is provided with a second sealing cover, the first sealing cover is provided with a third ventilation hole, and the second sealing cover is provided with a fourth ventilation hole; the cigarette cartridge heating device comprises a first cigarette cartridge fixing channel and a second cigarette cartridge fixing channel penetrating the cigarette cartridge heating device Channel, suction air inlets penetrating into the cartridge fixing channels are provided on the circumference of the first cartridge fixing channel and the second cartridge fixing channel, one end of the first cartridge fixing channel close to the power chip device is fixedly connected to a first fixed base, and one end of the second cartridge fixing channel close to the power chip device is fixedly connected to a second fixed base, and heating mechanisms are provided in the first cartridge fixing channel and the second cartridge fixing channel; a power supply and a control chip are provided on the power chip device, and a power switch is provided on the outer surface of the power chip device, the power switch is electrically connected to the power supply, and the control chip is electrically connected to both the power supply and the heating mechanism.

[0012] Furthermore, the heating mechanism is a heating core, which is fixedly mounted on a fixed base and electrically connected to both a power supply and a control chip. After the cigarette is broken, the first smoking segment is inserted into the first cigarette cartridge fixing channel, and the second smoking segment is inserted into the second cigarette cartridge fixing channel. The two heating cores are inserted between the first and second smoking segments. The power supply heats the two heating cores, heating the inner cores of the first and second smoking segments to generate aerosol.

[0013] Furthermore, the heating mechanism comprises peripheral heating rings, two of which are fixedly mounted on the inner walls of the first and second cartridge fixing channels, respectively. Both peripheral heating rings are electrically connected to a power source and a control chip. When the cigarette is broken, the first cigarette segment is inserted into the first cartridge fixing channel, and the second cigarette segment is inserted into the second cartridge fixing channel. The first and second cigarette segments are in contact with the inner walls of the peripheral heating rings. The power source energizes the peripheral heating rings, generating heat, which peripherally heats the first and second cigarette segments, thereby generating aerosol.

[0014] Furthermore, the number of the third ventilation holes and the fourth ventilation holes are both multiple. The multiple third ventilation holes and the fourth ventilation holes can prevent the cigarette capsule from blocking the third ventilation holes or the fourth ventilation holes during the first puff, thereby ensuring smooth airflow during puffing.

[0015] Furthermore, the suction section is connected to the cigarette cartridge heating device by a snap connection, which makes it easier to remove and install the suction section from the cigarette cartridge heating device.

[0016] Beneficial effects of the present invention:

[0017] The cigarette of the present invention can be broken, and it is broken from the breaking hole at the connection between the first transition section and the second transition section and the filter section. The first transition section is connected to the first smoking section, and the first transition section has a first hollow pad. The first transition section can form a first cavity with the first hollow pad as the bottom and the inner wall of the first transition section as the wall; the second transition section is connected to the second smoking section, and the second transition section has a second hollow pad. The second cavity can form a second hollow pad as the bottom and the inner wall of the second transition section as the wall. The smoking section of the smoking device is then removed from the cartridge heating device. The first smoking section is then inserted into the first cartridge fixing channel of the smoking device, the second smoking section is inserted into the second cartridge fixing channel of the smoking device, and the filter section is inserted into the filter hole. When the smoker heats and inhales, the high temperature of the smoke melts the shell of the cigarette capsule, releasing the liquid flavor-releasing substance in the cigarette capsule. When the smoker inhales, the aerosol smoke carries the liquid flavor-releasing substance into the smoker's mouth and nose, allowing the consumer to experience the various aromas or benefits imparted by the flavor-releasing substance. Furthermore, the melted cigarette capsule absorbs the energy of the high-temperature smoke through a phase change process, reducing the temperature of the smoke inhalation inlet of the consumer, thus acting as a cooling material.

[0018] During this whole process, the following technical effects are achieved:

[0019] 1. Cigarette capsules can be added freely during smoking according to the smoker's preferences, with better taste selection;

[0020] 2. The cigarette capsules of the present invention are produced separately and not together with cigarettes, which simplifies the production process of cigarettes with popping beads and reduces the production difficulty;

[0021] 3. The present invention uses an external cigarette capsule. When smoking, the high-temperature smoke generated by the smoking section melts the outer shell of the cigarette capsule. When the cigarette capsule is crushed, the physical structure of the acetate fiber bundle inside the filter rod will not be damaged, thereby improving the smoking experience for the smoker.

[0022] 4. The present invention uses an external tobacco capsule. The melted tobacco capsule absorbs the energy of the high-temperature smoke through a phase change process, which can reduce the smoke inlet temperature of the consumer. It also has the effect of a cooling material, avoiding the unpleasant experience of "burning the mouth" for consumers.

[0023] 5. The smoking device of the present invention is provided with a control chip, and a program can be set on the control chip so that the two heating mechanisms heat alternately or simultaneously according to the set program, so that the smoking device can provide the user with the desired smoking taste mode, and the user's smoking pleasure and usage experience are enhanced.

The first cigarette cartridge fixing channel 17 and the second cigarette cartridge fixing channel 18 are circumferentially provided with suction air inlet holes 19 that pass through the cigarette cartridge fixing channels. The lower end of the first cigarette cartridge fixing channel 17 is fixedly connected to a first fixed base 20, and the lower end of the second cigarette cartridge fixing channel 18 is fixedly connected to a second fixed base 21. The inner walls of the first cigarette cartridge fixing channel 17 and the second cigarette cartridge fixing channel 18 are both provided with peripheral heating rings 24; a power supply and a control chip are provided on the power chip device 11, and a power switch 23 is provided on the outer surface of the power chip device 11. The power switch 23 is electrically connected to the power supply, and the control chip is electrically connected to the power supply and the peripheral heating ring 24.

[0035] The method of use of the present invention is as follows:

[0036] During use, the cigarette is broken at the breaking hole 6 at the connection between the first transition section 2 and the second transition section 4 and the filter section 3. The first transition section 2 is connected to the first smoking section 1, and the first transition section 2 has a first hollow pad 7, which can form a first chamber with the first hollow pad 7 as the bottom and the inner wall of the first transition section 2 as the wall; the second transition section 4 is connected to the second smoking section 5, and the second transition section 4 has a second hollow pad 8, which can form a second chamber with the second hollow pad 8 as the bottom and the inner wall of the second transition section 4 as the wall.

[0037] Then pull out the smoking section 9 of the smoking device from the cigarette cartridge heating device 10, and then insert the first smoking section 1 into the first cigarette cartridge fixing channel 17 of the smoking device, insert the second smoking section 5 into the second cigarette cartridge fixing channel 18 of the smoking device, and insert the filter segment 3 into the filter hole 12.

[0038] A tobacco capsule 25 that the smoker wants to smoke is put into the first chamber of the first transition section 2, and another tobacco capsule 25 that the smoker wants to smoke is put into the second chamber of the second transition section 4, and then the smoking section 9 of the smoking device is covered on the cigarette cartridge heating device 10. Because the bottom of the cigarette cartridge heating device 10 has a first connecting tube 13, a second connecting tube 14, a first sealing cover 15 and a second sealing cover 16, after covering the smoking section 9, the first chamber on the first transition section 2 is covered by the first sealing cover 15 on the smoking device, and the second chamber on the second transition section 4 is covered by the second sealing cover 16 on the smoking device; the outer walls of the first smoking section 1 and the second smoking section 5 are respectively in contact with the inner walls of their corresponding peripheral heating rings 24, and the power supply energizes the peripheral heating rings 24, and the peripheral heating rings 24 generate heat, and the smoking section is peripherally heated to generate aerosol.

[0039] When the smoker inhales, the smoke is at a high temperature and can melt the outer shell of the cigarette capsule 25, and then the liquid aroma-releasing substance in the cigarette capsule 25 is released. When the smoker inhales, the aerosol smoke carries the liquid aroma-releasing substance into the smoker's mouth and nose, allowing the consumer to experience the various scents or effects given by the aroma-releasing substance.

[0040] The smoking device of the present invention is provided with a control chip, and a program can be set on the control chip so that the two peripheral heating rings 24 are heated alternately or simultaneously according to the set program, so that the smoking device can provide the user with the desired smoking taste mode, and the user's smoking pleasure and usage experience are enhanced.

[0041] In order to prevent the smoke from being burned when the smoker inhales due to the high temperature of the smoke, a cooling component can be provided in the suction section 9 of the smoking device of this embodiment. When inhaling, the cooling component cools the smoke. The cooling component can be one of a planar mesh structure, an anisotropic mesh structure, an internally coiled hollow tube structure, a Venturi tube structure, a porous structure, and a spiral structure.

[0042] Example 2

[0043] like Figure 1-5As shown, the only difference between Example 2 and Example 1 is that the heating of the cigarette cartridge heating device 10 is for heating the inner core of the cigarette cartridge. Specifically, the cigarette cartridge heating device 10 is provided with two cigarette cartridge fixing channels which vertically penetrate the cigarette cartridge heating device 10, namely the first cigarette cartridge fixing channel 17 and the second cigarette cartridge fixing channel 18. The lower end of the first cigarette cartridge fixing channel 17 is fixedly connected to the first fixed base 20, and the lower end of the second cigarette cartridge fixing channel 18 is fixedly connected to the second fixed base 21. A heating core 22 is provided in the first cigarette cartridge fixing channel 17 and the second cigarette cartridge fixing channel 18, and the two heating cores 22 are fixedly mounted on the first fixed base 20 and the second fixed base 21 respectively; a power supply and a control chip are provided on the power chip device 11, and a power switch 23 is provided on the outer surface of the power chip device 11. The power switch 23 is electrically connected to the power supply, and the control chip is electrically connected to the power supply and the heating core 22.

[0044] After the cigarette is broken, the first smoking segment 1 is inserted into the first cigarette cartridge fixing channel 17, and the second smoking segment 5 is inserted into the second cigarette cartridge fixing channel 18. The heating core 22 is inserted into the middle of the first smoking segment 1 and the second smoking segment 5. When the heating core 22 is heated, the two smoking segments are heated from the middle of the first smoking segment 1 and the second smoking segment 5.

[0045] It should be noted that the outer shell of the tobacco capsule 25 used in the cigarette and smoking device of the present invention is made of gelatin material. The gelatin outer shell will generally melt and rupture at a temperature above 45°C. The temperature of the smoke generated by heat-not-burn cigarettes is generally much higher than 45°C. Therefore, when the smoker takes the first puff, the temperature of the smoke can melt the outer shell of the tobacco capsule 25. There is no need for consumers to pinch the tobacco capsule 25 through the filter rod like traditional cigarettes or low-temperature cigarettes.

[0046] The above embodiments are intended only to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention and are not intended to limit the scope of the present invention. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the preferred embodiments, those skilled in the art will appreciate that the technical solutions of the present invention may be modified or replaced with equivalents without departing from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the present invention, and such modifications or equivalents shall be encompassed by the claims of the present invention.
