The change or adjustment of their relative relationship should also be regarded as the scope of the implementation of the utility model without substantial change of the technical content.

[0030] like Figure 1-Figure 8As shown, the utility model provides a liquid-containing firmware filter, including a filter rod 2, a firmware 1, and a shaping paper 3, wherein the filter rod 2 and the firmware 1 are alternately arranged, and the shaping paper 3 is wrapped around the outer peripheral surfaces of the filter rod 2 and the firmware 1; the firmware 1 includes a liquid storage cavity 101, a plurality of support columns 102, and an outer shell 103, the liquid storage cavity 101 is arranged on the inner side of the outer shell 103, and is connected to the outer shell 103 through the support columns 102; the cross-sectional size of the outer shell 103 is the same as the cross-sectional size of the filter rod 2; when the outer shell 103 is subjected to external force, the liquid storage cavity 101 is squeezed and broken by the support columns 102, and the liquid medium in the liquid storage cavity 101 enters the adjacent filter rod 2.

[0031] The liquid-containing filter tip of the utility model is designed to have a cross-sectional size of the housing 103 that is the same as that of the filter rod 2, so as to facilitate the compounding of the filter rod 2, thereby solving the problem of the difficulty in compounding the fixture 1 and the filter rod 2 in the prior art. A liquid storage chamber 101 is provided in the housing 103, and a liquid medium is placed in the liquid storage chamber 101. The liquid medium can be made of water, a flavoring solution, or other materials, and can meet the taste requirements of consumers for smoke. It has a wide range of applications and is competitive in the market.

[0032] Preferably, Figure 2-Figure 5 As shown, the shape of the shell 103 is cylindrical, and the diameter of the shell 103 is the same as the diameter of the filter rod 2; a plurality of support columns 102 are evenly arranged on the inner wall of the shell 103 at the same angular interval, and the end of the support column 102 away from the shell 103 abuts against the liquid storage chamber 101.

[0033] Furthermore, the lengths of the shell 103, the liquid storage chamber 101, and the support column 102 are consistent. In this embodiment, a through hole is also provided on the side wall of the shell 103 to facilitate the smoke to flow through the gap between the shell 103 and the forming paper 3. In other embodiments, the side wall of the shell 103 may not have a through hole.

[0034] Preferably, Figure 2-Figure 5 As shown, the contact surface between the support column 102 and the inner wall of the housing 103 is larger than the contact surface between the support column 102 and the liquid storage chamber 101. In this embodiment, the outer contact surface of the support column 102 is set to be larger than the inner contact surface of the support column 102 so as to facilitate the compression of the liquid storage chamber 101 when squeezing the housing 103, and to facilitate the squeezing of the liquid storage chamber 101, thereby releasing the liquid medium in the liquid storage chamber 101.

[0035] Preferably, in this embodiment, the number of support columns 102 is 3-10, and further preferably 4-6. The number of support columns 102 should not be set too much, so as to avoid the support columns 102 occupying too much gap between the outer shell 103 and the liquid storage chamber 101, thereby affecting the flow of smoke in the gap between the outer shell 103 and the liquid storage chamber 101.

[0036] Preferably, Figure 6 , Figure 7 As shown, the liquid storage cavity 101 includes a cavity 1012 and a sealing cover 1011, and the sealing cover 1011 is arranged on the port of the cavity 1012; the liquid medium is stored in the cavity 1012, and the sealing cover 1011 is used to isolate the liquid medium from the external environment. Furthermore, in this embodiment, the liquid medium is water or a fragrance replenishing solution. When water is used as the liquid medium, the temperature of the smoke can be reduced while increasing the humidity of the smoke, thereby avoiding the influence of high-temperature dry smoke on the taste of consumers. When the liquid medium uses a fragrance replenishing solution, a unique fragrance can be added to the smoke to improve the taste of consumers. In other embodiments, the liquid medium can also be other safe liquid materials.

[0037] Preferably, Figure 2-Figure 5 As shown, the cross-sectional shape of the liquid storage cavity 101 is circular or polygonal; the cross-sectional area of ​​the liquid storage cavity 101 accounts for 10%-60% of the cross-sectional area of ​​the filter tip. Figure 3 As shown, the cross-sectional shape of the liquid storage chamber 101 is circular, and the number of the support columns 102 is five; Figure 4 As shown, the cross-sectional shape of the liquid storage chamber 101 is a triangle, and the number of the support columns 102 is three; Figure 5 As shown, the cross-sectional shape of the liquid storage cavity 101 is a hexagon, and the number of the support columns 102 is six; in other embodiments, the cross-sectional shape of the liquid storage cavity 101 may also be other shapes, but it needs to be a regular shape.

[0038] Furthermore, the cross-sectional area of ​​the liquid storage cavity 101 accounts for 10%-60% of the cross-sectional area of ​​the filter tip, and more preferably 40%-50%. For example, if the diameter of the filter rod 2 is 7.7 mm, the cross-sectional diameter of the liquid storage cavity 101 can be set to 5.2 mm, and the cross-sectional shape of the liquid storage cavity 101 is circular. Correspondingly, when the cross-sectional shape of the liquid storage cavity 101 is a polygon, it should also meet 10%-60% of the cross-sectional area of ​​the filter tip.

[0039] Preferably, the material of the fixture 1 is polypropylene, polyethylene, polyethylene terephthalate, polylactic acid, etc., but in other embodiments, the material of the fixture 1 can also be other materials. The filter rod 2 is made of diacetate fiber tow, paper material, polypropylene fiber, etc. as the main material, and the filter rod 2 is cylindrical.

[0040] To achieve the above purposes or other purposes, such as Figure 8 As shown, the utility model also discloses a cigarette, comprising the above-mentioned liquid-containing firmware filter, and also comprising a tobacco segment 4 and cigarette tipping paper, wherein the tobacco segment 4 is arranged in the cigarette tipping paper, and the tobacco segment 4 is connected to the filter via the cigarette tipping paper.

[0041] The utility model relates to a liquid-containing filter and cigarette, and the working principle is as follows: water or a flavoring solution is added to a liquid storage chamber 101, and the liquid storage chamber 101 is installed in a shell 103 through a plurality of support columns 102. The shell 103 is a cylinder and has the same diameter as the filter rod 2, so that it is convenient to compound the shell 103 and the filter rod 2 through the molding paper 3. When the consumer smokes the cigarette, the consumer squeezes the shell 103, and the shell 103 is squeezed and applies pressure to the liquid storage chamber 101 through the support column 102. Since the end of the support column 102 close to the liquid storage chamber 101 has a small force-bearing area, the liquid storage chamber 101 is easily squeezed and damaged, and the water or the flavoring liquid in the liquid storage chamber 101 enters the filter rod 2 on the adjacent two sides of the firmware 1. The smoke generated by the burning of the tobacco segment 4 flows through the gap between the filter rod 2, the shell 103 and the liquid storage chamber 101 and enters the consumer's mouth, which can reduce the temperature of the smoke and increase the humidity of the smoke. At the same time, the flavoring solution can bring a novel experience to consumers and improve market competitiveness.

[0042] The liquid-containing firmware filter and cigarette involved in the utility model have the following beneficial effects:

[0043] 1. The utility model fills the liquid storage chamber 101 with water or a fragrance replenishing solution. When the liquid storage chamber 101 is squeezed, the water or the fragrance replenishing solution will enter the adjacent filter rod 2. When the smoke flows through the filter rod 2, the smoke carries the water or the fragrance replenishing solution, which can give consumers a better experience and improve market competitiveness.

[0044] 2. The utility model sets the shell 103 to be cylindrical, and its diameter is consistent with the diameter of the filter rod 2, which is convenient for better compounding and solves the problem of difficult compounding in the prior art.

[0045] Therefore, the utility model effectively overcomes various shortcomings in the prior art and has high industrial utilization value.

[0046] The above embodiments are merely illustrative of the principles and effects of the present invention, and are not intended to limit the present invention. Anyone familiar with the technology may modify or alter the above embodiments without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. Therefore, all equivalent modifications or alterations made by a person of ordinary skill in the art without departing from the spirit and technical concept disclosed in the present invention shall still be covered by the claims of the present invention.
