[0033] The filter portion 14 is a filter member similar to a filter used in a known cigarette. Specifically, it is made of a resin such as cellulose acetate. The aerosol generated by heating passes through the filter section 14 and is inhaled by the user. The absorber portion 14 appropriately absorbs volatile components, smoke, etc. in the generated aerosol. The stimulation experienced by the user when inhaling the aerosol is reduced, allowing the user to enjoy the taste of smoking.

[0034] Furthermore, in the electronic cigarette cartridge 1 of the first embodiment, the aerosol generated from the flavor portion 11 The support member 12 is provided for the purpose of lowering the temperature of the sol. By leaving an interval between doses, the temperature of the aerosol drops appropriately, preventing the user from receiving high-temperature aerosol. Inhalation is prevented. Depending on the heating temperature of the flavor portion 11, the support member 1 The support member 12 is, for example, a member as disclosed in Japanese Patent No. 6280287. The material is suitable and has a temperature resistance. From the viewpoint of the resin composition, silicone resins are preferably used.

[0035] A wrapping paper member 20 is used to maintain the shape of the electronic cigarette cartridge 1. The material 20 is made of paper and has moisture absorption properties, so that the moisture absorption of the flavor part 11 can be suppressed. The wrapping paper member 20 covers at least the flavor portion 11. The flavor portion 11 and the filter portion 14 are in contact with each other through the inner surface 20i of the wrapping paper member 20. The surface of the wrapping member 20 opposite to the inner surface 20i is the outer surface 20o. The paper member 20 comes into contact with the lips when the user holds the paper member 20 in his / her mouth. When the wrapping member 20 is inserted into the insertion slot 31, the wrapping member 20 also comes into contact with the inner side of the insertion slot 31. the feeling of contact with the heating element 30, the good fixation with the heating element 30, and the good retention of the flavoring part 11 and the filter part 14. To achieve this, various indicators of surface roughness are used.

[0036] Specifically, various surface roughness specifications conforming to JIS B 0601 (2013) are used. The physical properties of the surface of the wrapping member 20 are defined by the mark. The average surface roughness (Rai) is 1 μm or more. The average maximum roughness of the inner surface 20i of the paper wrapper member 20 (Rzi) is 15 μm or more, preferably 16 μm or more.

[0037] In addition, the arithmetic mean surface roughness ( Rao) is 2 to 20 μm, preferably 2.5 to 17 μm, more preferably The average maximum roughness (Rz) of the outer surface 20o of the paper wrapper member 20 is preferably 2.7 to 15 μm. o) is 230 μm or less, preferably 15 to 230 μm.

[0038] Furthermore, the kurtosis (Rkui) of the inner surface 20i of the paper wrapper member 20 is 1 to 15. , preferably 2 to 12, more preferably 2.5 to 11. The kurtosis (Rkuo) of the outer surface 20° of the It is preferably 1.5 or less, and more preferably 2.7 to 14.5.

[0039] In addition, the average length (Rsmi) of the roughness curve element of the inner surface 20i of the paper wrapper 20 is 150 to 1300, preferably 190 to 1100, more preferably The average length of the roughness curve element of the outer surface 20o of the paper wrapping member 20 ( Rsmo) is 150 to 3500, preferably 160 to 3300, More preferably, it is 170 to 3100.

[0040] The skewness (Rski) of the inner surface 20i of the paper wrapper member 20 is -2 to 6. , preferably -0.9 to 5.5, more preferably -0.9 to 5. The skewness (Rsko) of the outer surface 20o of the paper member 20 is -2.5 to 2.5; It is preferably −2 to 2, more preferably −1.9 to 1.9.

[0041] Here, the arithmetic mean surface roughness: Ra indicates the average value of the height difference from the average surface. :Rz indicates the peak value of the surface height. Kurtosis:Rku indicates the surface sharpness. Roughness curve The average length of the line element: Rsm is an index of the lateral size of the surface irregularities, not the height of the irregularities. Rsk indicates the symmetry of peaks and valleys around the mean line.

[0042] The combination of these indicators determines the appearance of the outer surface 20o of the electronic cigarette cartridge 1. The criteria are the gloss, the feel and texture when held in the hand, and the feel when held in the mouth. If the surface is too rough (uneven), there will be less friction when handling the e-cigarette cartridge. Although the glossiness increases, the texture of the film is reminiscent of that of a resin film. On the other hand, if the surface becomes rough, the overall texture will become rougher. It loses its luster and looks unattractive. Also, when it comes into contact with the lips, it becomes rougher and feels uncomfortable. It will come into being.

[0043] Next, the roughness (irregularities) of the inner surface 20i of the electronic cigarette cartridge 1 is The filter part 14 is held in place by the filter holder 1 and the filter part 14, so that the filter part 14 is not easily detached from the fixed part. If the roughness (irregularities) of the inner surface is too small, friction will not occur and the holding force of each part will be weak. If the inner surface is too rough (uneven), the contact points with each part will be reduced and the holding force will not be maintained. From the above points, the inner surface 20i and the outer surface 20o of the paper wrapper member 20 are not supported. A range of roughness indices is defined.

[0044] As shown in the exploded cross-sectional view of FIG. 3, the wrapping paper member 20 is made up of a flavor portion 11 and a first inner surface 21i. The first wrapping paper member 21 is in contact with and covers the filter portion 14. The second wrapping paper member 24 is in contact with and covers the second inner surface 24i. In the electronic cigarette cartridge 1 of this embodiment, the wrapping paper material itself is changed to cover each component. Therefore, the surface roughness index is defined in more detail depending on the member and the part.

[0045] The inside of the first wrapping paper member 21 is a first inner surface 21i that contacts the flavor portion 11, The outer surface is a first outer surface 21o. The first outer surface 21o is in contact with the third wrapping paper member 23 and is a heating section. It contacts the inner side of the insertion opening 31 of the member 30.

[0046] The arithmetic mean surface roughness (Rai1) of the first inner surface 21i of the first wrapping paper member 21 is 1 to 15 The first inner surface 2 of the first wrapping paper member 21 has a thickness of 1.5 to 13 μm. The average maximum roughness (Rzi1) of 1i is 100 μm or less, preferably 20 to 100 μm or more.

[0047] In addition, the arithmetic mean of the first outer surface 21o, which is the surface opposite to the first inner surface 21i of the first wrapping paper member 21, is The average surface roughness (Rao1) is 2 to 20 μm, preferably 2.5 to 18 μm. The thickness of the first outer surface 21o of the first wrapping paper member 21 is preferably 3 to 17 μm. The average maximum roughness (Rzo1) is 100 μm or less, preferably 20 to 100 μm. be.

[0057] As shown in FIG. 3 and other figures, the first wrapping paper member 21 directly contacts and holds the flavor portion 11. Therefore, the first inner surface 21i needs to have a surface roughness that generates an appropriate degree of friction. The first outer surface 21o side is in contact with the insertion opening 31 of the heating member 30 and the third wrapping paper member 23. Therefore, the above range is specified.

[0058] As shown in FIG. 3, the second wrapping paper member 24 also directly contacts and holds the filter portion 14. It also comes into contact with the third wrapping paper member 23. Therefore, it generates an appropriate amount of friction on the second inner surface 24i side. Furthermore, since the surface comes into direct contact with the user's lips, the surface roughness is different from that of conventional cigarettes. The surface roughness must be such that it does not feel strange to the tobacco. It is prescribed.

[0059] The electronic cigarette cartridge 1 has a wrapping paper member 20, a first wrapping paper member 21, and a second wrapping paper member 24. The thickness of the paper wrapping member 20 is also determined by the physical property of the thickness of the paper. The thickness of the first wrapping paper member 21 is preferably 0.02 to 0.2 mm. The thickness of the second wrapping paper member 24 is 0.02 mm or more, preferably 0.02 to 0.2 mm. The thickness of the second wrapping paper member 24 is 0.05 mm or more, preferably 0.05 to 0.2 mm. In this case, the saliva of the user penetrates into the second wrapping paper member 24 through contact with the lips of the user. The strength can be increased by increasing the number of turns of paper. Taking this into consideration, somewhat thinner paper is used.

[0060] The electronic cigarette cartridge 1 has a wrapping paper member 20, a first wrapping paper member 21, and a second wrapping paper member 24. In this regard, the physical property of paper permeability is added. When a user inhales tobacco aerosol, This is because a moderate amount of air circulation is required. The air permeability of the wrapping paper member 20 is 2 kPa. In particular, the air permeability of the first wrapping paper member 21 is 2 kPa or more, and the air permeability of the second wrapping paper member 24 is 1 kPa or more. The air permeability is 30 kPa or more. The reason for this restriction is to prevent intake air from leaking from the periphery of the filter portion 14.

[0061] The electronic cigarette cartridge 1 has a wrapping paper member 20, a first wrapping paper member 21, and a second wrapping paper member 24. In this regard, the physical property of the wet and dry tensile strength of the paper (hereinafter referred to as tensile strength) is added. The tensile strength of the wrapping member 20 is 0.3 N / mm or more, preferably 0.4 N / mm or more. In particular, the tensile strength of the first wrapping paper member 21 is 0.3 N / mm or more, preferably 0.4 N / mm or more. / mm or more, and the tensile strength of the second wrapping paper member 24 is 0.8N / mm or more, preferably 0.9N / mm or more. The tensile strength of the second wrapping paper member 24 is preferably 1 N / mm or more, more preferably 1 N / mm or more. The reason why it is higher than the paper member 21 is that the user puts the electronic cigarette cartridge 1 in his mouth. When the mouth is held in the mouth, saliva penetrates the second wrapping paper member 24. Therefore, even in a wetter state, This is to ensure strength.

[0062] Next, the electronic cigarette cartridge 1 is heated by the heating element 30 (see FIG. 2). The aerosol generated from the flavor part 11 of the electronic cigarette cartridge 1 is as follows: It can be stopped.

[0063] The material that is the source of aroma, whether tobacco or non-tobacco, is called an "aroma source material"; A fragrance cartridge to be filled with a heated object to generate an "aerosol for fragrance" The name of the part within the product is called the "aroma generating body," and the "aroma source material" is used to generate the aroma. The state in which the product is manufactured in a state (including solid, liquid, and gel) and placed in the body of the "aroma generator" "aroma source" and "apparatus equipped with a heating element to heat the aroma generating substance in the aroma cartridge" These are also called "fragrance devices." These devices may also use non-tobacco materials that do not contain tobacco components. This is because it applies.

[0064] "Fragrance" means "good smell" and refers to the fragrance that comes from the material itself. The aroma that fills the air when heated, and the flavor that fills the mouth when inhaled. ) etc.

[0065] "Smoking" generally means smoking cigarettes, but here it simply means "smoke." It means to enjoy the smoke, to taste the smoke, or to enjoy the smoke. The term "smoke" is not limited to tobacco products and applies to non-tobacco products as well. For example, droplets dispersed in the air such as aerosols, which "look like smoke" or "are smoke-like" " is also included.

[0066] In the field of electronic cigarettes, unlike conventional cigarettes that are heated by flame, The temperature can be freely controlled and the range can be freely adjusted. Therefore, the user can enjoy the same or different taste as a regular cigarette. You can smoke the flavor.

[0067] Therefore, the aroma source material (flavor portion 11 in FIG. 1) of the electronic cigarette cartridge is By specifying the materials and the components of the aerosol produced, new smoking devices, To provide a filler in a tobacco cartridge.

[0068] That is, (1) to form an aerosol in the components constituting the aerosol forming material Ion gas chromatograms containing non-tobacco plant components and aerosol former components The peaks are separated into components at a column temperature in the range of 200 to 400°C and analyzed by gas chromatography. This is the filling material for a heated electronic cigarette shown on the ion detector of the quantitative analysis device. Details of the matrix will be described in the Examples.

[0069] (2) Non-tobacco plants that produce aerosols include: (i) the aroma defined as the aroma emanating from the plant itself; The fragrance materials used are Chinese tea, black tea, rose, osmanthus, lavender, and and (ii) heating an aerosol former. The ingredients that release aroma, defined as the scent that fills the air when cooked, include pickled radish and shallots. At least one of the following is made from the rhizomes of garlic, onion and konjac: iii) Defined as the aroma released into the mouth when the aerosol former is heated and inhaled together with the aerosol. The ingredients that give off the flavor are quince, plants of the genus Rutaceae, grapes, and In addition, peppermint plants of the genus Mentha in the family Lamiaceae, spearmint plants of the genus Mentha in the family Lamiaceae, and It is made from the above-ground stems and leaves of catnip, common mint, spearmint, and willow mint. A filler for a heated electronic cigarette that uses at least one or more.

[0070] The non-tobacco plant is selected from the plants described above.

[0071] (3) Propylene glycol and ethylene glycol are used as materials for aerosol formers. , diethylene glycol, triethylene glycol, tetraethylene glycol, or A filling material for a heated electronic cigarette that uses at least one ingredient derived from glycerin. .

[0072] The purpose of the aerosol former is to create a suitable viscosity for the aerosol to be formed after heating. In addition, the aerosol former has a hydrophobic portion, Dissolution of aqueous components is aided.

[0073] The balance of mass of each component is important when a user uses an e-cigarette cartridge to enjoy smoking. Of course, this range is suitable for presenting a good taste. The amount of ingredients can be adjusted freely.

[0074] Next, we analyzed the vaporization of the e-cigarette cartridge during use. The proportion of the vaporized components is as follows: aerosol former: 30 to 70 mass %, para Fin-based hydrocarbons: 10% by mass or less, carbon dioxide: 5% by mass or less, water: 1 to 5% by mass The filler for a heated electronic cigarette contains the following in a mass ratio:

[0075] The aerosol former is the component listed in (3) Aerosol former. The hydrocarbons are mainly compounds of carbon and hydrogen. Water is used mainly as a filler (the flavor part 11 in Figure 1). ) derived from tobacco or non-tobacco plants. Carbon dioxide is released by heating. It is derived from the combustion of tobacco or non-tobacco plants.

[0076] Furthermore, as a vaporized component, in the whole of the vaporized component, limonene: 0.01 to 1 % by mass, cyclotene: 0.01 to 1% by mass, menthol: 0.1% 15% by mass of neophytadiene, and 0.01 to 1.5% by mass of neophytadiene. It is a tobacco filler.

[0077] The taste of tobacco is mainly determined by the amount of these components.

[0078] In addition, the vaporized components contain nicotine at 15% by mass or less in the entire vaporized components. It is a filler for a heated electronic cigarette.

[0079] Nicotine comes from the tobacco plant, which is why it tastes similar to traditional cigarettes.

[0080] In addition, as a vaporized component, caffeine: 1 to 8 mass% in the entire vaporized component A filler for a heated electronic cigarette containing

[0081] Caffeine is derived from non-tobacco plants, primarily when tea is included in the filling. .

[0082] In addition, cocoa beans, guarana, coffee beans, yerba mate, and green tea are used as filling materials for heated electronic cigarettes. Tea, Gyokuro, Sencha, Matcha, Hojicha, Bancha, Kamairicha, Genmaicha, Oolong tea, Chinese tea, Black tea One or more of the following may be selected:

[0083] By using the listed ingredients as fillers, a variety of flavors can be added to heated electronic cigarettes. This is not limited to heated electronic cigarettes, but also applies to tobacco-like smoking devices that do not use tobacco plants. It can also be used as a smoking device. [Example]

[0084] [Measurement of various indexes of surface roughness] Nine types of paper for each part of the electronic cigarette cartridge were prepared and tested according to JIS B 0601( Measurements were made in accordance with the standard established in 2013.

[0090] The surface roughness of each paper used in the electronic cigarette cartridge was measured. Based on this, the optimum range of the surface roughness was determined.

[0091] [Measurement of paper thickness] The thickness of each part of the paper used in the electronic cigarette cartridge was measured under the same conditions as the arithmetic mean surface roughness measurement using the same number of samples as shown in Table 1. There is no distinction between the outer and inner surfaces.

[0092] [Table 1]

[0093] [Measurement of air permeability] The measurement equipment used was a texture analyzer (TA.XTplus, Stable M icro System) and the attached dedicated cylindrical probe (diameter 35 mm) were used. The same number of samples as in the measurement of arithmetic mean surface roughness was used.

[0094] (1) To prepare the specimen, punch out the sample paper using a punch with an inner diameter of 13 mm. did. (2) Stainless steel membrane filter holder (Swinny Filter H older 13mm; filter compatible size φ13mm, Merck) with Luer lock Connect it to a plastic syringe (10 mL Terumo syringe) using a The gasket (outer diameter 13 mm, inner diameter 10 mm, thickness 0.1 mm) was then attached. mm) one sheet was added. (3) For the breathability test (measurement of breathability), the crosshead of the texture analyzer The plunger was pushed in at a speed of 5 mm / s. The test was stopped just before the tip of the tube was reached, and the load-strain curve was obtained (n=5). A blank test was conducted without sandwiching the sample paper (n=5), and the difference in load between the test with the sample paper sandwiched and the test with the sample paper sandwiched was measured. In the measurement of the air permeability, the smaller the value, the higher the air permeability.

[0095] The results of the breathability test (average of 5 points) are shown in Table 1. There is no distinction between surfaces.

[0096] [Measurement of wet and dry tensile strength] The measurement equipment used was a texture analyzer (TA.XTplus, Stable M The tensile grip (manufactured by Micro System) and its accessories were used. Sandpaper was attached to the four surfaces to prevent slipping. The same number of samples as for the measurement of arithmetic mean surface roughness were used. went.

[0097] (1) To prepare the sample, cut the paper sample into a rectangle (width 7 mm, length 15 mm or more). Add 0.5 μL of a 1:1 mixture (by weight) of deionized water and glycerin to the center using a micropipette. It was visually confirmed that the spread of the spot due to absorption of the solution had almost stopped. After confirmation, the spot diameter in the width direction of the specimen was measured with a vernier caliper and immediately subjected to the following tensile test. .

[0098] (2) The conditions for the tensile test were as follows: Gap: 10mm Crosshead speed: 8mm / min Data acquisition frequency: 10 points / s Crosshead travel distance: 3mm (3) When analyzing the data, the method described in Patent No. 6572318 was used as a reference. The maximum load (Fmax [N]) that appeared before the spot was taken as the tensile strength. Divide Fmax by the dry width [N] minus the diameter to obtain the maximum load per unit dry width [N / mm]. asked for

[0099] The results of the wet and dry tensile strength (5-point average) are shown in Table 1. No distinction shall be made between the front and rear surfaces.

[0100] [Component analysis] Gas chemistry has been developed to analyze the volatile components generated by the filling material (flavoring part) when using electronic cigarette cartridges. The flavoring part of the electronic cigarette cartridge (filling material) was identified by chromatography-mass spectrometry. 0.3 mg of the sample was collected and subjected to gas chromatography mass spectrometry. The flavoring part (filler) of the provided electronic cigarette cartridge was made from tea leaves, a non-tobacco plant. is.

[0101] Gas chromatography mass spectrometry: Agilent Technologies, 7890A / 5975C Sample introduction device: Frontier Labs, PY-3030D Carrier gas: He Column: ZB-XLB-HT Inferno (inner diameter 0.25 mm, length 30 m, film thickness 0.25μm) Thermal desorption temperature: The temperature was increased from 200°C to 400°C at a rate of 30°C / min. Gas chromatograph inlet temperature: 330°C Split ratio: 1:30

[0102] The mass spectrometry conditions were as follows: Ionization method: electron ionization method Mass spectrometer interface temperature: 280°C Scan range: m / z 15-600

[0103] Gas chromatography analysis revealed that nicotine was not present in the identified components, but instead Some contain caffeine because they do not use tobacco plants. In addition, many compounds that give users a refreshing feeling when smoking, such as aroma, are also detected. It was found that it provides a good taste when smoked without using any plants.

[0104] In the case where the first wrapping paper member 21 and the second wrapping paper member 24 are provided, The second inner surface can be arranged to cover a part of the first outer surface of the first wrapping paper member 21. The first wrapping paper member 21 covers at least the flavor portion 11, and the second wrapping paper member 24 covers at least the flavor portion 11. The flavoring part 11 covers the filter part 14. Between the flavoring part 11 and the filter part 14, a support member 12 and a cooling member The flavoring part 11 and the filter part 14 may or may not be provided. There may be a space between them.

[0105] In this case, the kurtosis (Rkuo2) of the second outer surface of the second wrapping paper member 24 is 3 or more. Therefore, the skewness (Rsko2) of the second outer surface of the second wrapping paper member 24 is less than 0. According to this configuration, the second outer surface of the second wrapping paper member 24 that comes into contact with the user's hand By increasing the unevenness of the surface to a certain extent and increasing the number of concaves to convexities, It can provide a pleasant feel and generate a certain amount of friction, making it easy to use with an electronic cigarette car. This makes it easier to insert the cartridge 1 into the heating member 30.

[0106] Next, a second embodiment of the electronic cigarette cartridge 50 will be described. 1 is an exploded perspective view of an electronic cigarette cartridge 50 according to the present embodiment. The ridge has a hard, thick cylindrical wrapping member 70, and the inside of the cylindrical wrapping member 70 is filled with fragrance. The taste portion 60 and the filter portion 64 are inserted into each other to form the container.

[0107] In this embodiment, the wrapping paper member 70 extends from one end of the flavor portion 60 to the mouthpiece of the filter portion 64. The thickness of the wrapping paper member 70 is 0.1 mm to 0.5 mm, preferably 0.2 In this case, the thickness of the paper wrapper member 7 is 0.4 mm to 0.4 mm. Since the wrapping paper member 70 is thick and hard, it is likely to cause discomfort. The flavor portion 60 and the filter portion 64 held inside are not in close contact with the wrapping paper member 70. When the user takes out the electronic cigarette cartridge 50 and inserts it into the heating member 30, Therefore, the user should not touch the outer surface of the wrapping paper member 70. The inner surface of the wrapping paper member 70 is free from the flavor portion 60 and the filler. The holding force of the tab portion 64 is required to be good.

[0108] The physical properties of the wrapping paper member 70 having such characteristics are preferably in the following ranges: The arithmetic mean surface roughness (Rai) of the inner surface of the paper wrapper member 70 is 5 to 10 μm. The arithmetic mean surface roughness (Rao) of the outer surface of the paper member 70 is 6 to 15 μm. The average maximum roughness (Rzi) of the inner surface of the paper member 70 is 25 to 40 μm, and the wrapping paper member 7 The average maximum roughness (Rzo) of the outer surface of the paper wrapper member 70 is 40 to 60 μm. The kurtosis (Rkui) of the outer surface of the paper wrapper member 70 is 3 to 5. Rkuo) is 3 to 5. By satisfying at least part of these physical property ranges, The user feels less discomfort when holding the mouthpiece, and the flavor portion 60 and the filter portion 64 are held firmly in place. These ranges of physical properties can also be applied to the wrapping paper member 20 of the first embodiment. It can have a variety of effects.

[0109] The components housed inside the wrapping paper member 70 are not limited to the flavor portion 60 and the filter portion 64. FIG. 5 shows a modified example of the electronic cigarette cartridge 50. FIG. 5(a) shows the same as FIG. The electronic cigarette cartridge 50 shown in FIG. 1 has a flavor portion 60 and a filter portion 61 inside a wrapping paper member 70. 64 are arranged adjacent to each other.

[0110] The electronic cigarette cartridge 50 shown in FIG. 5(b) has a support member 62 disposed adjacent to the flavor portion 60. The support member 62 and the filter section 64 are placed in the same position, and a space 69 is formed between the support member 62 and the filter section 64. When the heating needle 32 is inserted, the flavor portion 60 is pushed toward the filter portion 64, and the support portion If the support member 62 is adjacent to the filter portion 64, the support member 62 However, when the support member 62 is adjacent to the space 69, the support member The flavor portion 60 must be supported by the frictional force between the wrapping paper member 70 and the material 62. By setting the physical properties of the paper wrapper member 70 within the above range, the support member 62 can be reliably held by the paper wrapper member 70. This prevents the flavor portion 60 and the support member 62 from being pushed into the space portion 69 .

[0111] The electronic cigarette cartridge 50 shown in FIG. 5(c) has a support member 62 disposed adjacent to the flavor portion 60. A cooling member 65 is disposed adjacent to the support member 62, and a fragrance is disposed adjacent to the cooling member 65. A ball 66 including the filter portion 64 is disposed adjacent to the ball 66 . Even with this configuration, by making the wrapping paper member 70 have the above-mentioned physical properties, when the user holds it in their mouth, The flavor portion 60 and the filter portion 64 can be held in place with less discomfort.
