Electromagnetic induction self-heating heating sheet and preparation method, and heat-not-burn product CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS
[0001] This application claims: the priority of the Chinese invention patent application with the application date of November 21, 2023, application number: 202311557625.3, and title: Electromagnetic induction self-heating heating sheet and preparation method, and heat-not-burn product; the priority of the Chinese utility model patent application with the application date of November 21, 2023, application number: 202323153152.9, and title: A heat-not-burn product; all the above contents are incorporated herein by reference. Technical Field
[0002] The present application relates to the field of heat-without-combustion technology, and in particular to an electromagnetic induction self-heating heating sheet and a preparation method thereof, a heat-without-combustion product, and a heat-without-combustion system. Background Art
[0003] Aerosol refers to a colloidal dispersion system composed of solid or liquid particles suspended in a gas medium. By heating the aerosol-generating matrix, the aerosol-generating matrix can produce smoke or release volatile substances without combustion, thereby forming a usable aerosol. It has been widely used in medical devices, electronic smoking devices and other fields.
[0004] At present, there are two main methods for heating the aerosol generating matrix in the form of heating without combustion: resistance heating and electromagnetic induction heating. Among them, the electromagnetic induction heating method generally places a magnetic induction heating body in the aerosol generating matrix (for example, a sheet or rod-shaped heating body is inserted into the aerosol generating matrix, or a granular heating body is mixed with the aerosol generating matrix into one). By subjecting the magnetic induction heating body to the action of an alternating magnetic field to generate eddy currents and generate heat, the aerosol generating matrix can be heated and atomized.
[0005] However, since the location of the magnetic induction heating element within the aerosol generating matrix is difficult to control, and the heat generated by the magnetic induction heating element is mainly concentrated in the area centered on the magnetic induction heating element; therefore, it not only increases the difficulty of structurally combining the magnetic induction heating element and the aerosol generating matrix, but also easily leads to the aerosol generating matrix not being heated sufficiently and evenly.

[0053] The present application is further described in detail below by means of specific embodiments in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Similar elements in different embodiments are numbered with associated similar elements. In the following embodiments, many detailed descriptions are provided to enable the present application to be better understood. However, those skilled in the art will readily appreciate that some of the features may be omitted in different circumstances, or may be replaced by other elements, materials, or methods. In some cases, some operations related to the present application are not shown or described in the specification. This is to avoid the core portion of the present application being overwhelmed by excessive descriptions. For those skilled in the art, it is not necessary to describe these related operations in detail. They can fully understand the related operations based on the description in the specification and the general technical knowledge in the art.
[0054] In addition, the features, operations, or characteristics described in the specification may be combined in any appropriate manner to form various embodiments. Furthermore, the steps or actions in the method description may be reordered or adjusted in a manner readily apparent to those skilled in the art. Therefore, the various sequences in the specification and drawings are provided solely for the purpose of clearly describing a particular embodiment and are not intended to be mandatory, unless otherwise specified.
[0055] Component numbers used herein, such as "first" and "second," are used solely to distinguish the components being described and do not convey any sequential or technical meaning. References to "connection" and "coupling" herein, unless otherwise specified, include both direct and indirect connections (couplings).
[0056] Please refer to Figures 1 to 6 in combination with Figures 7 to 9. The embodiments of the present application provide an electromagnetic induction self-heating heating sheet, which can be used in heat-not-burn products (such as heat-not-burn tobacco cartridges, heat-not-burn cigarettes, etc.), and is used as a heating component in heat-not-burn products that generates eddy currents and generates heat by cutting the magnetic lines of force of the alternating magnetic field.
[0057] For example, the heating sheet can be cut and divided into one or more sheet units 100 having a predetermined shape (e.g., a rectangle), and the sheet unit 100 can be rolled and shaped into a tubular body. An aerosol-generating substrate 200 (e.g., medicinal materials, spices, tobacco, etc.) is placed within the tubular body, and the heating sheet (or sheet unit 100) and the aerosol-generating substrate 200 can be constructed into a heat-not-burn product. For example, the aerosol-generating substrate 200 can be filled into the tubular body in the form of granules, filaments, strips, etc. after the tubular body is formed. For another example, the aerosol-generating substrate 200 can be pre-filled into a cylindrical smoking segment or pre-shaped into a cylindrical solid smoking segment, and then wrapped around the sheet unit 100. When the heat-not-burn product is placed in an alternating magnetic field, such as that provided by a heat-not-burn smoking device, the heating effect of the heating sheet can be used to heat the aerosol-generating substrate 200, thereby generating an aerosol.
[0058] The following mainly takes the example of a heating sheet or sheet unit 100 whose initial contour shape is rectangular and whose contour shape during application is tubular, to specifically describe the structural construction, application principle and technical effect of the heating sheet; however, it should be noted that the initial contour shape being rectangular and the application contour shape being tubular is only a specific application of the heating sheet, and the heating sheet can also be set into other suitable structural forms based on actual needs by adopting appropriate process means to meet different application requirements.
[0059] 1 to 6 , the heating sheet (ie, the sheet unit 100 ) includes a carrier layer 10 , an induction heating film 20 , a packaging layer 30 , and a heat insulating layer 40 , which will be described in detail below.
[0060] Please refer to Figures 1 to 6. The supporting layer 10 can be understood as a material layer that forms the overall contour of the heating sheet. The supporting layer 10 can be used as a carrier for setting other material layers in the heating sheet, and the heating sheet can be cut into the required geometric shape (such as a rectangle) based on the supporting layer 10 and finally shaped into a tubular body.
[0061] For the convenience of distinction and description, the two surfaces of the supporting layer 10 arranged opposite to each other are defined as the first surface and the second surface respectively; at the same time, two directions perpendicular to each other are defined based on the supporting layer 10, namely: the first direction and the second direction; for the heating sheet with an initial rectangular outline, one of the first direction and the second direction can be understood as the length direction of the heating sheet, and the other can be understood as the width direction of the heating sheet.
[0062] In one embodiment, the carrier layer 10 is made of aramid paper, carbon nanotube paper, cellulose paper, or the like. These materials utilize their high thermal conductivity, high temperature resistance, chemical stability, and high structural strength, thereby enhancing the performance of the heating sheet (for example, ensuring the heating sheet's flexibility and cuttability). Of course, the carrier layer 10 may also be made of other suitable materials, which will not be discussed further herein.
[0063] In some embodiments, the gram weight of the carrier layer 20 can be controlled between 20 grams per square meter and 40 grams per square meter, and the thickness of the carrier layer 20 can be controlled between 10 microns and 80 microns, which is beneficial to enhancing the overall lightweight of the heating sheet.
[0064] Referring to Figures 1 to 6 , the induction heating film 20, when used in a heating sheet, cuts the magnetic lines of force of the alternating magnetic field, thereby generating heat due to eddy currents. In other words, the induction heating film 20 is heated by the alternating magnetic field within the heating sheet. The induction heating film 20 extends along a first direction of the carrier layer 10 and is disposed on the first surface of the carrier layer 10. A plurality of induction heating films 20 are provided, and the plurality of induction heating films 20 are arranged side by side and spaced apart in a second direction of the carrier layer 10.
[0065] Therefore, by controlling the extension direction of the induction heating film 20 and the discontinuous arrangement between adjacent induction heating films 20, the carrier layer 10 or the heating sheet has a zebra-shaped induction heating film 20, which is not only beneficial to enhancing the uniformity of the overall heating of the heating sheet, but also can create conditions for reducing the cost of the heating sheet by reducing the material usage of the induction heating film 20.
[0066] In some embodiments, the induction heating film 20 can be made of various materials that can generate eddy current heating effect in an alternating magnetic field; for example, ferromagnetic pure metal conductor materials such as iron and their alloy conductor materials; for example, inorganic non-metallic conductor materials such as ceramics and carbon fibers that have been ferromagnetized.
[0067] In one embodiment, the induction heating film 20 is a material layer having one or more particles of carbon, iron, nickel, copper, and germanium, and the particle size of the particles is between 50 nanometers and 1 micron; wherein, in the raw material of the induction heating film 20, the form of the particles can be selected as a strip fiber form; and the thickness of the induction heating film 20 can be controlled between 5 microns and 50 microns.
[0068] Referring to FIG2 in conjunction with FIG8 , the encapsulation layer 30 is provided to cover the induction heating film 20 and primarily serves to protect the induction heating film 20, including preventing the induction heating film 20 from accidentally separating from the carrier layer 10 and preventing the induction heating film 20 from being corroded due to exposure to aerosols. The encapsulation layer 30 can be provided in a one-to-one correspondence with the induction heating film 20, that is, the encapsulation layer 30 is provided on the first surface of the carrier layer 10 in a manner covering the corresponding induction heating film 20, or is provided to cover the surface of the corresponding induction heating film 20.
[0069] This is beneficial to reducing the material usage of the encapsulation layer 30 and creating conditions for achieving lightweight heating sheets; of course, the encapsulation layer 30 can be set on the first surface of the carrier layer 10 in a manner of covering the entire induction heating film 20 to achieve all-round encapsulation protection for the induction heating film 20.
[0070] In one embodiment, the encapsulation layer 30 can be made of one material or a combination of multiple materials such as epoxy resin, chromium, silicone oil, ferrite, etc., to utilize the characteristics of such materials to enhance the adhesion of the encapsulation layer 30 on the induction heating film 20 and reduce the impact on the magnetic field, thereby improving the protection effect of the induction heating film 20.
[0071] Of course, in some embodiments, the encapsulation layer 30 may also be made of other suitable materials, which will not be described in detail here.
[0072] Referring to Figure 2 and Figure 8 , the thermal insulation layer 40 covers the carrier layer 10 and is disposed on the second surface of the carrier layer 10. The thermal insulation layer 40 can be made of a thermal insulation material with a porosity greater than 65%, such as aerogel, polysaccharide gel, diatomaceous earth, or molecular sieve. The thickness of the thermal insulation layer 40 can be controlled to be between 10 and 25 microns. After the heating sheet or sheet unit 100 is wound and formed into a tubular body, the encapsulation layer 30 and the induction heating film 20 are located on the inner side of the tubular body, while the thermal insulation layer 40 is equivalent to the outer surface of the tubular body.
[0073] Therefore, with the help of the heat insulation and heat preservation effect of the heat insulation layer 40, on the one hand, the heat generated by the induction heating film 20 can be concentrated in the tube body space of the tubular body, so as to fully heat and atomize the aerosol generating matrix arranged in the tube body space; on the other hand, the heat loss caused by the heat transfer to the external space of the tubular body can be reduced, which not only creates favorable conditions for improving the utilization rate of thermal energy, but also avoids the influence of the user experience on the surface temperature of heat-not-burn smoking devices, etc. due to excessively high surface temperature.
[0074] When the heating sheet or sheet unit 100 is used, it can be rolled along the first direction or the second direction and shaped into a tubular body, so that the induction heating film 20 presents different distribution forms in the tubular body to meet different heating atomization requirements.
[0075] For example, referring to Figures 1, 3 and 4 in combination with Figure 2, the sheet unit 100 is wound along a first direction and shaped into a tubular body. At this time, each induction heating film 20 is in a ring shape enclosed along the circumference of the tubular body, and multiple induction heating films 20 are arranged in an intermittent manner in the axial direction of the tubular body.
[0076] Each annular induction heating film 20 can have the same size (for example, the same thickness in the radial direction of the tubular body and the same width in the axial direction of the tubular body) and the same magnetic permeability; when the aerosol generating matrix 200 is located in the tubular body, the aerosol generating matrix 200 can be fully and evenly heated from the circumference of the aerosol generating matrix 200 with the help of the induction heating film 20.
[0077] Each annular induction heating film 20 may also have different magnetic permeabilities or different sizes. For example, at least two of the multiple annular induction heating films 20 may have different thicknesses in the radial direction of the tubular body, or different widths in the axial direction of the tubular body, or different magnetic permeabilities. By differentiating the magnetic permeabilities or sizes of the induction heating films 20, different areas of the tubular body may have different heating temperatures, thereby realizing segmented heating and atomization of the aerosol generating matrix 200.
[0078] For example, referring to FIG. 2 in combination with FIG. 1 , FIG. 3 and FIG. 4 , the sheet unit 100 is wound along the second direction and shaped into a tubular body. At this time, each induction heating film 20 is in the form of a strip extending along the axial direction of the tubular body, and multiple induction heating films 20 are arranged in an intermittent manner in the circumferential direction of the tubular body.
[0079] Each strip of the induction heating film 20 can be set to the same size (including length, width and thickness) and the same magnetic permeability, and the induction heating films 20 can also have the same spacing, which is conducive to fully and evenly heating and atomizing the aerosol generating matrix 200 from the circumference.
[0080] First, by using multiple induction heating films 20 arranged in the form of zebra stripes on the supporting layer 10, the heating sheet or sheet unit 100 has the function of automatically heating in an alternating magnetic field environment. By adjusting the contour shape of the heating sheet, different usage requirements can be met; for example, the heating sheet or sheet unit 100 can be shaped into a tube to be used as a wrapper (such as cigarette paper) for the aerosol generating matrix 200, and combined with the aerosol generating matrix 200 to form a heat-not-burn product that can generate aerosol.
[0081] Secondly, the use of multiple induction heating films 20 arranged at intervals can effectively increase the heating area of the aerosol generating matrix 200 or the heating area of the heating sheet itself. The use of the thermal insulation layer 40 can confine the heat generated by the induction heating film 20 to the geometric space surrounded by the heating sheet or sheet unit 100 (for example, the tube space of a tubular body), so that the heat generated by the induction heating film 20 can be gradually and evenly transferred from the periphery of the aerosol generating matrix 200 to its center, thereby providing structural guarantees for fully and evenly heating the atomized aerosol generating matrix 200.
[0082] Third, based on the selection and control of the shape and size of the heating sheet or sheet unit 100 (including the number, material and size parameters of the induction heating film 20), the heating sheet can be flexibly applied to different heating scenarios (such as uniform heating scenarios and segmented heating scenarios); at the same time, by directly wrapping the aerosol generating matrix 200 with the heating sheet or sheet unit 100, the relative position between the induction heating film 20 and the aerosol generating matrix 200 can be accurately controlled, and the difficulty of the structural combination of the heating sheet and the aerosol generating matrix 200 can be reduced.
[0083] In some embodiments, the encapsulation layer 30 can also be omitted, and the thermal insulation layer 40 is arranged on the first surface of the carrier layer 10 in the form of covering the induction heating film 20. At this time, the heat generated by the induction heating film 20 can be transferred to the aerosol generating matrix 200 through the carrier layer 10, thereby realizing heating and atomization of the aerosol generating matrix 200.
[0084] In some embodiments, the thermal insulation layer 40 can be omitted, and the induction heating film 20 can be adaptively arranged on the first surface and / or the second surface of the carrier layer 10; when used, the heating sheet can be directly built into the interior of the aerosol generating matrix 200, or the tubular heating sheet or sheet unit 100 can be built into the aerosol generating matrix 200; all these will not be elaborated here.
[0085] In some embodiments, the heating sheet or sheet unit 100 can be wound and shaped into a tubular body in the form of a packaging layer 30 and an induction heating film 20 located on the outside of the tubular body and a heat insulation layer 40 located on the inside of the tubular body. When used, the tubular body can be regarded as a relatively independent electromagnetic induction heating body. By inserting the tubular body into the aerosol generating matrix 200, the characteristic that the thermal field of the tubular body is evenly distributed around its geometric center line can be utilized to achieve heating and atomization of the aerosol generating matrix 200 by central heating.
[0086] In one embodiment, referring to Figures 1 and 3 , the induction heating film 20 is configured as a rectangular strip extending continuously in a first direction. The width of the rectangular strip (i.e., the induction heating film 20) can be controlled to be between 1 mm and 10 mm, and the thickness can be controlled to be between 5 microns and 50 microns. In the tubular body formed by the heating sheet or sheet unit 100, the number of induction heating films 20 is set to an odd number greater than or equal to 3, such as three, five, seven, or other larger odd numbers. Of course, the induction heating film 20 can also be configured as other strip patterns, such as broken line, curved line, etc.
[0087] According to the principle of electromagnetic induction, an odd number of induction heating films 20 arranged circumferentially along the tubular body can triangulate the electromagnetic field lines, making the thermal field distribution of the tubular body more uniform. This facilitates the heat generated by the induction heating films 20 to be uniformly transferred from the periphery of the aerosol-generating substrate 200 to the center of the aerosol-generating substrate 200, thereby achieving uniform heating of the aerosol-generating substrate 200. However, an even number of induction heating films 20 easily forms overlapping magnetic fields, which can easily cause abnormally high heating temperatures in local areas of the tubular body, hindering uniform heating of the aerosol-generating substrate 200.
[0088] In one embodiment, please refer to Figure 4, the induction heating film 20 can also be configured to have a structure that extends discontinuously and non-continuously in the first direction. For example, each induction heating film 20 can be composed of a plurality of induction units 21 arranged at intervals in the first direction; as for the induction unit 21, its contour shape can be set to an axially symmetrical figure or a centrally symmetrical figure, such as a "C" shape, an "O" shape, a circle, a regular polygon, an "X" shape, an "*" shape and other regular geometric shapes; of course, the contour shape of the induction unit 21 can also be set to other regular or irregular geometric shapes.
[0089] In one embodiment, the magnetic induction units 21 in each induction heating film 20 or the induction units 21 in the sheet unit 100 may be configured to have the same geometric shape.
[0090] As for the heating sheet or sheet unit 100, the induction units 21 of the multiple induction heating films 20 are equivalent to being evenly presented on the carrier layer 20 in the form of a grid distribution, thereby constructing multiple evenly distributed heating points or heating areas on the heating sheet or sheet unit 100; therefore, when the heating sheet or sheet unit 100 is used, uniform heating and atomization of the aerosol generating matrix 200 can also be achieved.
[0091] The applicant discovered that existing heat-not-burn products (such as cigarettes) are typically installed on an aerosol-generating device. The heating element in the device is inserted into the heat-not-burn product or wrapped around the outside of the product. Based on the principle of electromagnetic induction heating, the heat-not-burn product generates a usable aerosol without combustion. This means that the heating element is independent of the heat-not-burn product and must be reusable. On the one hand, the aerosol residue generated by the heat-not-burn product will continuously accumulate and adhere to the heating element, making it difficult to clean. On the other hand, repeated heating of the residue will also produce an unpleasant odor, affecting the user experience of the heat-not-burn product or device.
[0092] The heat-not-burn product provided herein integrates an induction heating film 20 (e.g., an induction unit 21) into the product's structural system, enabling the product to self-heat and generate aerosols in an alternating magnetic field. This not only prevents contamination of the aerosol-generating device during use but also creates conditions for reducing the device's structural complexity and functional configuration costs. This is described in detail below.
[0093] Please refer to Figures 7 to 8 in combination with Figures 1 to 6. An embodiment of the present application provides a heat-not-burn product, the overall outline of which is roughly a columnar structure with a preset length, and can be divided into functional sections such as a smoking section 310, a cooling section 320 and a filtering section 330 along the length direction of the product; wherein the smoking section 310 has an aerosol generating matrix 200, and at least the smoking section 310 has the heating sheet or sheet unit 100 of the aforementioned embodiment, for example, the sheet unit 100 serves as a wrapping material layer, which is wrapped around the periphery of the aerosol generating matrix 200 to form the smoking section 310.
[0094] Please refer to Figure 9. The present application also provides a heat-not-burn system, which includes a heat-not-burn device and a heat-not-burn product. When in use, the smoking section 310 of the heat-not-burn product can be placed in the structural space surrounded by the induction coil d of the heat-not-burn device (such as a smoking device). The alternating magnetic field environment provided by the induction coil is used to make the induction heating film 20 in the smoking section 310 generate heat due to the generation of eddy currents, thereby heating the aerosol generating matrix 200 and generating aerosol; by inhaling the heat-not-burn product, the aerosol can be cooled when it flows through the cooling section 320 with the air flow, and filtered when it flows through the filtering section 330, thereby ultimately realizing the use of the aerosol.
[0095] It should be noted that those skilled in the art should be aware of the basic structure, working principle and structural coordination relationship between the product and the device of the heat-not-burn device; therefore, they will not be elaborated here.
[0096] In one embodiment, referring to Figures 5 to 8 , the wrapping material layer is a tubular body, i.e., the wrapping material layer is formed by winding the heating sheet (specifically, the sheet unit 100) of the aforementioned embodiment. The sheet unit 100 has a first region 101 and a second region 102. The first region 101 can be understood as the area on the carrier layer 20 where the induction heating film 20 and the encapsulation layer 30 are provided, while the second region 102 can be understood as the area on the carrier layer 20 where the induction heating film 20 (or the encapsulation layer 30) is omitted. The first region 101 and the second region 102 are arranged side by side in the axial direction of the tubular body. With respect to the tubular body, the induction heating film 20 can be located on the inner side of the tubular body.
[0097] In some embodiments, the aerosol generating matrix 200 can be a loose non-solid medium such as medicinal materials such as mugwort, spices, tobacco shreds, tobacco leaves, tobacco particles, tobacco powder, etc.; after the sheet unit 100 is rolled and shaped into a tubular body, the aerosol generating matrix 200 is filled in the tubular space surrounded by the first area 101, thereby forming a smoking segment 310. The aerosol generating matrix 200 may also be a pre-shaped columnar structure, such as a columnar solid medium such as tobacco paste or plant paste, so that the first area 101 of the sheet unit 100 is wrapped around the periphery of the aerosol generating matrix 200 to form the smoke-generating section 310; accordingly, the second area 102 may be at least partially wrapped around the outer peripheral surface of the cooling section 320 or even the filtering section 330. The filtering section 330 may be formed by filling the filtering medium in the tubular space surrounded by the second area 102, or by wrapping the second area 102 of the sheet unit 100 around the periphery of the filtering medium; and the cooling section 320 may be a hollow area between the filtering section 330 and the smoke-generating section 310 in the tubular space surrounded by the second area 102, or may include a hollow cooling fixture located in the hollow area.
[0098] In other words, the first region 101 of the sheet unit 100 encapsulates the aerosol-generating substrate 200 to form the product's smoke-generating section 310, while the second region 102 of the sheet unit 100 encapsulates the filter medium and other components to form the product's cooling section 320 and filtering section 330. The structural characteristics and performance of the heating sheet simplify the structure and manufacturing of heat-not-burn products, and when the product is placed in an alternating magnetic field, the aerosol-generating substrate 200 in the smoke-generating section 310 is sufficiently and evenly heated, thereby generating and releasing aerosol.
[0099] In some embodiments, the wrapping material layer may also be present in the heat-not-burn product in other structural forms or manners to construct products with different structural forms, or to form the products based on different manufacturing methods; for example, the sheet unit 100 does not have the second region 102, and the sheet unit 100 only wraps the aerosol-generating substrate 200 and is arranged on the periphery of the aerosol-generating substrate 200 to form the smoke-generating segment 310 of the product; the cooling segment 320 (or the filtering segment 330) of the product is connected to the smoke-generating segment 310 by a connecting piece (such as a connecting paper, a connecting tube, etc.), thereby forming a heat-not-burn product; for another example, the sheet unit 100 wraps the aerosol-generating substrate 200 to form a smoke-generating structure, and the outer side of the smoke-generating structure is wrapped with, for example, connecting paper to form the smoke-generating segment 310; at the same time, the cooling segment 320 and the filtering segment 330 of the product are wrapped with the connecting paper, or the cooling segment c is connected between the smoke-generating segment 310 and the filtering segment 330 with the connecting paper. All these things will not be elaborated here.
[0100] It should be noted that the induction heating film 20 and the encapsulation layer 30 are shown in Figures 2 and 8 as protruding from the surface of the carrier layer 10. This is only to schematically illustrate the approximate arrangement relationship between the relevant material layers in the heating sheet, and does not represent the specific structural form and specific size of the relevant material layers.
[0101] The embodiments of the present application also provide a heat-not-burn product, please refer to Figures 10 to 16, which can generate heat autonomously under the action of an alternating magnetic field and generate aerosol that can be used; in order to illustrate the structure of the heat-not-burn product more clearly and in detail, the following mainly describes the heat-not-burn product with its overall outline as a columnar shape, but it should be pointed out that the heat-not-burn product can also be set to other suitable structural forms according to actual application needs.
[0102] Referring to Figures 10 and 16 , the heat-not-burn product comprises a smoking segment 310, a hollow segment 320, and a filter segment 330 sequentially arranged along its axial length. The combination of the hollow segment 320 and the filter segment 330 can be considered part of the mouthpiece, which further processes the aerosol generated by the smoking segment. In other embodiments, the mouthpiece may include more than just the hollow segment 320 and the filter segment 330. For example, it may also include a support segment, a cooling fixture, and a functional segment for flavoring or drying. In use, the heat-not-burn product can be installed in an aerosol-generating device (e.g., a smoking device). The smoking segment 310 is primarily configured to generate heat and aerosol under the influence of the alternating magnetic field provided by the aerosol-generating device. The aerosol is cooled as it flows through the hollow segment 320 with the airflow. The cooled aerosol is then filtered as it flows through the filter segment 330 with the airflow, thereby outputting a usable aerosol from the heat-not-burn product.
[0103] It should be noted that those skilled in the art should be aware of the basic structure and working principle of the aerosol generating device and the coordination relationship between the heat-not-burn product and the aerosol generating device; for example, referring to Figure 16, the aerosol generating device generally includes a receiving structure for receiving the heat-not-burn product (for example, a socket 500 that can at least receive the smoking segment 310) and a magnetic field generating device (for example, an induction coil 400) arranged around the receiving structure; after the smoking segment 310 of the heat-not-burn product is placed in the contour space of the induction coil 400, the induction coil 400 can be used to provide an alternating magnetic field environment for the smoking segment 310, thereby causing the smoking segment 310 to heat up and generate aerosol; therefore, the aerosol generating device and its related components will not be described in detail here.
[0104] Please refer to Figures 11 and 12. The smoking segment 310 includes a wrapping paper (i.e., a heating sheet, specifically a sheet unit 100) and an aerosol generating matrix 200. The wrapping paper includes a carrier layer 10 and a plurality of sensing units 21 having the same shape (e.g., a solid or hollow O-shape, C-shape, X-shape, regular polygon, or other regular or irregular geometric shape). The carrier layer 10 is arranged to surround the outer peripheral surface of the aerosol generating matrix 200, so as to construct the overall outer contour structure of the smoking segment 310 with the help of the carrier layer 10. The sensing units 21 play the role of cutting the magnetic lines of force of the alternating magnetic field in the wrapping paper to generate heat due to eddy currents. The plurality of sensing units 21 are distributed in a rectangular array on the inner surface of the carrier layer 10 (i.e., the surface of the carrier layer 10 facing the aerosol generating matrix 200).
[0105] In some embodiments, the wrapping paper (i.e., the supporting layer 10) can be pre-rolled and shaped into a tubular body, and the aerosol generating matrix 200 is filled in the tubular body in the form of particles, filaments, strips, etc., thereby constructing a smoking segment 310; the aerosol generating matrix 200 can also be pre-shaped into a cylindrical solid form, and then the wrapping paper is wrapped around the periphery of the aerosol generating matrix 200 to form a smoking segment; that is, the aerosol generating matrix 200 can be a loose non-solid medium such as medicinal materials such as mugwort, spices, tobacco shreds, tobacco leaves, tobacco particles, tobacco powder, etc., or a solid medium such as tobacco paste, plant ointment, etc.; according to the specific form of the aerosol generating matrix 200, the wrapping paper and the aerosol generating matrix 200 are structurally combined to form the smoking segment 310.
[0106] By using multiple sensing units 21 arranged in a rectangular array on the inner surface of the carrier layer 10, it is equivalent to constructing multiple heating points or heating areas evenly arranged in a mesh form on the inner surface of the carrier layer 10 or the inside of the wrapping paper; thereby, not only can the uniformity of the heating of the wrapping paper be improved, which is beneficial to uniformly and fully heating the atomized aerosol generating matrix 200 from the periphery of the aerosol generating matrix 200, but also the material usage of the sensing unit 21 can be reduced, creating conditions for reducing the production cost of the wrapping paper.
[0107] In one embodiment, the carrier layer 10 is made of aramid paper, carbon nanotube paper, cellulose paper, or the like. These materials, with their high thermal conductivity, high-temperature resistance, chemical stability, and high structural strength, offer advantages for improving the performance of the wrapping paper (e.g., facilitating the production of shaped wrapping paper and maintaining the stability of its contour). In specific implementations, the mass of the carrier layer 10 can be controlled between 20 and 40 grams per square meter, while the thickness of the carrier layer 10 can be controlled between 10 and 80 µm, thereby enhancing the overall lightweight nature of the wrapping paper. Of course, the carrier layer 10 can also be made of other suitable materials, which are not detailed here.
[0108] In one embodiment, the sensing unit 21 can be made of various materials capable of generating eddy current heating in an alternating magnetic field. Examples include ferromagnetic pure metal conductor materials such as iron and their alloy conductor materials; and inorganic non-metallic conductor materials such as ferromagnetized ceramics and carbon fibers. More specifically, the sensing unit 21 is a material layer comprising one or more particles of carbon, iron, nickel, copper, or germanium, with a particle size between 50 nm and 1 µm. The particles can be in the form of strip-like fibers, and the thickness of the sensing unit 21 can be controlled between 5 and 50 µm.
[0109] Referring to Figures 10, 15 and 16, the mouthpiece includes a hollow section 320, which is arranged at the proximal lip end of the smoking section 310. The mouthpiece is extended by the supporting layer 10 in a direction away from the aerosol generating substrate 200 and at least partially wrapped and covered. Thus, the wrapping paper of the smoking section 310 also realizes the function of connecting with the mouthpiece. For example, the wrapping paper can extend to partially cover the mouthpiece, or completely cover the mouthpiece, eliminating the need for a separate rolling process for the mouthpiece. Specifically, the wrapping paper (i.e., the supporting layer 10) has a first region 101 and a second region 102 arranged in the axial length direction of the heat-not-burn product. 02; wherein, the first area 101 can be understood as a structural area where the sensing unit 21 is set, and the second area 102 can be understood as a blank area where the sensing unit 21 is not set; after the wrapping paper is wrapped around the aerosol generating matrix 200, the smoking segment 310 can be formed based on the combination of the sensing unit 21 set in the first area 101 and the aerosol generating matrix 200, and the hollow segment 320 can be connected based on the second area 102, so that the smoking segment 310 and the hollow segment 320 can be connected in the process of winding to form the smoking segment 310, thereby saving the connection process and improving the assembly efficiency.
[0110] Correspondingly, a filter medium such as plant cellulose can be arranged in the tubular body space at one end of the hollow section 320 away from the smoking section 310, so as to form the filter section 330. In other words, the filter medium is arranged in the tubular body space surrounded by the second area 102 of the wrapping paper in a manner that maintains a certain distance from the aerosol generating matrix 200 in the axial direction of the heat-not-burn product, so as to form the filter section 330.
[0111] Therefore, by dividing the structural area of the wrapping paper or the carrier layer 10, and selecting the regional position of the sensing unit 21 on the carrier layer 10, the aerosol generating matrix 200 and the filter medium can be wrapped by the wrapping paper to form an integrated heat-not-burn product having a smoke-generating section 310, a hollow section 320 and a filter section 330, which creates favorable conditions for reducing the difficulty of processing, manufacturing and forming the heat-not-burn product.
[0112] In another embodiment, the wrapping paper may only wrap the aerosol generating matrix 200 to form the smoking segment 310, by wrapping the wrapping paper (or the smoking segment 310) with tipping paper, and utilizing the tubular space enclosed by the tipping paper to construct the hollow segment 320 and the filtering segment 330; or the smoking segment 310, the hollow segment 320 and the filtering segment 330 are relatively independent functional structural parts, and the three are connected with the help of tipping paper to form a cylindrical heat-not-burn product.
[0113] In other embodiments, for heat-not-burn products, the hollow section 320 and the filter section 330 may also be omitted. In this case, breathable members (such as breathable membranes, filter membranes, etc.) may be provided at both ends of the tubular body surrounded by the wrapping paper to prevent the aerosol-generating matrix 200 from detaching from the wrapping paper.
[0114] On the one hand, the induction unit 21 is used as the heating element of the heat-not-burn product, so that the heat-not-burn product has the function of autonomously heating and generating aerosol in a magnetic field environment, thereby reducing or avoiding a series of problems caused by the independent installation of the heating element and the heat-not-burn product or the repeated use of the heating element; for example, the heat-not-burn product as a disposable product can reduce the pollution of the aerosol generating device caused by the accumulation of aerosol residues attached to the inside of the aerosol generating device; for example, there is no need to configure a heating element in the aerosol generating device, which can create favorable conditions for reducing the structural complexity of the aerosol generating device and the cost of functional configuration.
[0115] On the other hand, by using wrapping paper as a wrapping structure for the aerosol-generating matrix 200, the difficulty of processing and manufacturing the heat-not-burn product can be effectively reduced, and the contact area between the wrapping paper and the aerosol-generating matrix 200 can be increased; at the same time, by utilizing multiple sensing units 21 uniformly arranged in the form of a rectangular array in the wrapping paper, not only can multiple uniformly distributed heating points or heating areas be formed on the periphery of the aerosol-generating matrix 200 to uniformly heat the aerosol-generating matrix 200, but the heat density of the wrapping paper can also be increased, so that the aerosol-generating matrix 200 is heated more fully.
[0116] In one embodiment, as shown in Figures 13 and 14 , the outline of the sensing unit 21 in the wrapping paper can be configured to a suitable shape based on actual needs. For example, the outline of the sensing unit 21 can be configured to be a square, a regular polygon such as an equilateral triangle, or an O-shape (see Figure 13 ). In another example, the sensing unit 21 can be formed by multiple sensing strips of equal length intersecting at a common intersection, such as a "cross" or "X" shape formed by two sensing strips intersecting at the common intersection (see Figure 14 ), or a "M" shape formed by three sensing strips intersecting at the common intersection. Of course, the sensing unit 21 can also be configured to have other axially symmetrical or centrally symmetrical shapes.
[0117] By selecting and configuring the contours of the induction units 21, the uniformity and density of the distribution of heating areas or points within the wrapping paper can be improved, creating conditions for sufficient heating and atomization of the aerosol-generating substrate 200. In practice, multiple induction units 21 with the same contour shape within the wrapping paper can have the same size and magnetic permeability. Of course, the induction units 21 can also be configured differently to create wrapping paper with different heating patterns.
[0118] For example, the induction units 21 in the wrapping paper are set to the same contour shape, the dimensions of each induction unit 21 (including contour size, thickness of material layer, etc.) are the same, and the magnetic permeability is consistent; thereby, the parameters of each heating point of the wrapping paper (including heat generation, heating area, etc.) can be made consistent; and based on the characteristics of uniform matrix distribution between multiple induction units 21, the uniformity of heat distribution of the wrapping paper can be effectively improved and the heat density can be guaranteed, so that heat can be evenly transferred from the periphery of the aerosol generating matrix 200 to the center of the aerosol generating matrix 200, so as to achieve sufficient and uniform heating of the atomized aerosol generating matrix 200.
[0119] For example, the induction cells 21 in the wrapping paper are arranged to have the same contour shape, but in the axial direction of the heat-not-burn product, at least two or more rows of induction cells 21 have different widths or thicknesses, or at least the spacing between two adjacent rows of induction cells 21 is different from the spacing between two other adjacent rows of induction cells 21, or at least two rows of induction cells 21 have different magnetic permeabilities. Thus, the wrapping paper can be divided into multiple annular heat-generating belts or annular heating zones along the axial direction of the heat-not-burn product. The different heating values of the annular heat-generating belts can be utilized to achieve segmented heating of the aerosol-generating substrate 200, or the temperature of the corresponding annular heat-generating belts can be adjusted as needed to meet different needs.
[0120] It should be noted that, since the induction units 21 of the same annular heat-generating belt have the same outline shape, size and magnetic permeability, it can be ensured that the portion of the aerosol generating substrate 200 corresponding to each annular heat-generating belt is heated evenly and sufficiently.
[0121] In one embodiment, referring to Figures 11 to 14 , the number of rows of sensing units 21 in the axial direction of the heat-not-burn product is set to an odd number greater than or equal to 3 (e.g., three, five, seven, or other odd-numbered rows); and the number of columns of sensing units 21 in the circumferential direction of the heat-not-burn product is set to an odd number greater than or equal to 3 (e.g., three, five, seven, or other odd-numbered rows). By setting the number of rows and columns of sensing units 21 to odd numbers, overlapping magnetic fields can be avoided, allowing the sensing units 21 to triangulate the electromagnetic field lines. This results in a more uniform thermal field distribution in the wrapping paper and prevents abnormally high temperatures in localized areas of the wrapping paper.
[0122] In one embodiment, referring to Figures 11 and 12, the wrapping paper further has an encapsulation layer 30, which covers the sensing unit 21 and is arranged on the inner surface side of the carrier layer 10. The encapsulation layer 30 mainly serves to prevent the sensing unit 21 from separating from the carrier layer 10 and to prevent the sensing unit 21 from being corroded due to exposure to aerosols. The encapsulation layer 30 can be made of one material or a combination of multiple materials such as epoxy resin, chromium, silicone oil, ferrite, etc. to enhance the adhesion ability of the encapsulation layer 30 and reduce the impact on the magnetic field.
[0123] In some embodiments, the encapsulation layer 30 can be provided on the inner surface of the carrier layer 10 in a one-to-one correspondence with the sensing cells 21. That is, the encapsulation layer 30 is provided on the inner surface of the carrier layer 10 to cover the corresponding sensing cell 21. This helps reduce the material usage of the encapsulation layer 30, facilitating lightweight wrapping paper and reducing the cost of the wrapping paper. The encapsulation layer 30 can also be provided on the inner surface of the carrier layer 10 to cover all sensing cells 21 (for example, the first region 101 covering the wrapping paper is provided on the carrier layer 10), thereby providing comprehensive encapsulation and protection for the sensing cells 21.
[0124] In one embodiment, referring to Figures 11 and 12, the wrapping paper further has an insulating layer 40, which is arranged to cover the outer surface of the carrier layer 10, for example, only the first area 101 corresponding to the wrapping paper covers the outer surface of the carrier layer 10, or the first area 101 and the second area 102 cover the entire outer surface of the carrier layer 10; in specific implementation, the insulating layer 40 can be made of at least one insulating material with a porosity greater than 65%, such as aerogel, polysaccharide gel, diatomaceous earth, molecular sieve, etc., and the thickness of the insulating layer 40 can be controlled between 10-25µm.
[0125] With the help of the thermal insulation layer 40, on the one hand, the heat generated by the sensing unit 21 can be confined to the tube space of the wrapping paper to fully heat the aerosol generating matrix 200; on the other hand, the heat loss caused by heat transfer to the outside of the heat-not-burn product can be reduced, thereby improving the utilization rate of heat; at the same time, it can also prevent heat from being transferred to the aerosol generating device, causing the device to be too hot and affecting the user experience.
[0126] It should be noted that the sensing unit 21 and the encapsulation layer 30 are shown in Figures 11 and 12 as protruding from the surface of the supporting layer 10. This is only to schematically illustrate the approximate arrangement relationship between the relevant material layers in the wrapping paper or cigarette paper, and does not represent the specific structural form and specific size of the relevant material layers.
[0127] The embodiment of the present application also provides a method for preparing a heating sheet, which is used to make the electromagnetic induction self-heating heating sheet (ie, wrapping paper) of the aforementioned embodiment; please refer to Figure 17, the preparation method includes steps 1000 to 4000.
[0128] Step 1000: Prepare coating slurry.
[0129] For example, one or more particles of carbon, iron, nickel, copper and germanium with a particle size of 50 nanometers to 1 micron are configured to form a magnetic induction slurry (the particles can be in the form of strip fibers); one or more materials such as epoxy resin, chromium, silicone oil, ferrite, etc. are configured to form an encapsulation slurry; aerogel, polysaccharide gel, diatomaceous earth, molecular sieve, etc. with a porosity greater than 65% are configured to form an insulating slurry.
[0130] Step 2000 : forming an induction heating film 20 on the carrier layer 10 .
[0131] For example, according to the contour shape of the induction heating film 20 and the arrangement on the carrier layer 10, the magnetic induction slurry is coated on the surface of aramid paper (or carbon nanotube paper, cellulose paper, etc.) with a gram weight of 20-40 grams per square meter and a thickness of 10-80 microns by film transfer, calendering or printing, thereby forming the induction heating film 20 on the first surface of the carrier layer 10; in specific implementation, the thickness of the magnetic induction slurry or the induction heating film 20 can be controlled at 5-50 microns.
[0132] Step 3000 : forming a packaging layer 30 on the induction heating film 20 .
[0133] For example, the encapsulation slurry is cumulatively coated on the induction heating film 20 using a film transfer, calendaring, or printing process to form the encapsulation layer 30. In some embodiments, the encapsulation slurry can be applied to each induction heating film 20 one by one; or the encapsulation slurry can be applied to the first surface of the carrier layer 30 so that the encapsulation layer 30 covers all the induction heating films 20.
[0134] Step 4000 : forming a heat insulation layer 40 on the carrier layer 10 .
[0135] For example, a thermal insulation slurry is applied to the second surface of the carrier layer 10 using a process such as film transfer, calendaring, or printing, thereby forming a thermal insulation layer 40 covering the second surface of the carrier layer 10. In some embodiments, the thickness of the thermal insulation slurry or thermal insulation layer 40 can be controlled to be between 10 and 25 microns. This ultimately produces a heating sheet with electromagnetic induction self-heating capabilities.
