Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of tobacco products, and in particular to a center-heated cigarette. Background Art

[0002] Heat-not-burn cigarettes are categorized by heating type, including central heating, peripheral heating, and combination heating. With central heating, taste is paramount in the consumer experience, offering significant advantages, but cigarette extraction and cleaning are inconvenient. With peripheral heating, convenience is paramount, but the draw can have a papery taste, with the key focus being on flavor adjustment. Combination heating offers significant potential, with the goal of achieving complementary advantages between central and peripheral heating in design. Currently, taste is the dominant factor in consumer experience, and central heating is the dominant heat-not-burn product on the market and will continue to be so.

[0003] Center-heating appliances, due to their unique taste advantages, are expected to remain a mainstream electric heating appliance for a long time. However, due to the inherent requirement that the heating element must be inserted into the tobacco, center-heating appliances can lead to user issues such as difficulty removing the cigarette and tobacco residue, severely impacting the consumer experience.

[0029] During production, the connecting section 11, atomizing section 21, cooling section 31, and filter section are first separately obtained. The connecting section 11 and the atomizing section 21 are then combined or rolled to form a first composite section 51 (in this embodiment, this is rolled using wrapping paper 81). The cooling section 31 and the filter section are then combined or rolled to form a second composite section 52 (in this embodiment, this is rolled using wrapping paper 91).
