AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

Existing aerosol generating devices often cause substantial thermal decomposition of plant materials during heating, leading to the production of combustion byproducts and inefficient release of desired compounds.

Method used

A capsule design for aerosol generating devices featuring a corrugated heater supported by an inner frame, with plant material on either side, and a waveform configuration that extends across the opening, allowing for controlled heating below the combustion point to release compounds like nicotine and cannabinoids without significant thermal decomposition.

Benefits of technology

The capsule design effectively generates aerosols with minimal thermal decomposition, ensuring efficient release of compounds like nicotine and cannabinoids while maintaining the integrity of the plant material.

Abstract

This disclosure relates to a capsule, a heated non-breathing (HNB) aerosol generating device, and a method for generating an aerosol without substantial thermal decomposition of the aerosol-generating material. [Solution] The capsule 100 for the aerosol generating device includes an inner frame 150 defining an opening and a corrugated heater. The corrugated heater is supported by the inner frame and extends over at least a portion of the opening defined by the inner frame. At least a portion of the aerosol generating material is placed within the opening and on each side of the corrugated heater.
