Higher-density filaments and tuned triacetin bonding raise filter hardness while keeping resistance to draw at 70 mmWG or less.
Two-mode marker sensing authenticates aerosol articles while cutting standby energy use and enabling media-specific heating profiles.
A conical clamping fit improves heat transfer to the hookah capsule while supporting safer removal, easier cleaning, and secure retention.
A corrugated inner wrapper creates a mouthpiece passage that boosts aerosol transfer while cooling flow and preserving filtration.
Non-circular ventilation perforations create turbulent airflow to improve air-aerosol mixing, cooling, nicotine delivery, and manufacturability.
A cross-hair filter and freshness plug stabilize airflow in conical smoking tips to prevent canoeing, uneven burning, and inconsistent draws.
Connected elongate strips with long joining portions help form aerosol material rods that balance assembly flexibility with structural integrity.
A wider pin heater in a rod no larger than 7 mm improves peripheral substrate heating, boosting aerosol delivery while cutting waste and power use.
A transverse porous closing element keeps tobacco filling inside the smoking article sub-unit while preserving air or gas permeability.
A thin front-plug closes the aerosol article end to prevent tobacco loss while a main-rod cutting process simplifies manufacture and handling.
Position sensing and warning feedback help prevent improper aerosol article insertion, overheating, detachment, and wasted consumables.
Varying mouth-end and distal-end diameters make heated aerosol articles easier to insert while preserving nicotine delivery and manufacturing consistency.
A spring-loaded holder moves a receiving member between loading, use, and eject positions for easier cartridge replacement and heat-source protection.
A lateral sealed passage lets heater connections exit the housing while preserving hermetic sealing and compact assembly in aerosol generators.
Hidden apertures in an aerosol article inner tube create a light-readable code that resists copying, heat damage, and added marking steps.
An air gap between the bowl screen and filter limits tar and resin buildup while protecting the filter from heat and combustion by-products.
A temperature-responsive microporous cover layer seals volatile compounds at room temperature, then releases them during heating without removable seals.
Varying air-hole shapes across the substrate balances flow resistance and mass distribution to improve heating uniformity and inhalation.
Through-airway sizing balances inhaling resistance, substrate mass, and heating uniformity for consistent aerosol release without burning.
Microwave dielectric heating speeds aerosol generation and improves heating uniformity, while a Faraday cage contains radiation and lets aerosol pass.
Multiple offset reference pulses are screened against resonance parameters to keep atomization rate and vaping stable despite RC oscillator drift.
