- the heating system may be an inductively heated arrangement, a resistively heated arrangement, a radiantly heated arrangement, or a convectively heated arrangement.
- resistively heated arrangements will be described as currently preferred embodiments.
- the tobacco plug 24 preferably weighs in the range of 5 to 500 mg. For single and multiple puff applications, weights in the range of 5 to 150 mg. are more preferable. Weights in the range of 300 to 500 mg. are more preferable where tobacco is to be used on multiple occasions.
- the tobacco mass may be made from any type of tobacco, or from any portion of the tobacco plant including, without limitation, sheet products, dust, leaf, stem, and combinations thereof.

- the paper needs to have sufficient strength to maintain integrity of the tobacco plug during handling, removal, and insertion.
- the paper covers the principal movement of air through the smoking system, the paper needs to have sufficient porosity to allow air movement therethrough.
- mesh opening should be sized small enough to contain a substantial majority, if not all, of the cut filler tobacco particles.
- the tobacco mass may also be formed from tobacco particles. Whether particles or other tobacco cuts are used, the tobacco itself may function as a binder to hold tobacco pieces in a preferred shape. If desired, the tobacco used in the system can be pretreated to enhance flavor generation. Similarly, if desired, flavorants can be provided on the tobacco surface.
- the tobacco mass may be rotationally symmetric in shape or configuration.
- the tobacco mass may be generally cylindrical, disk-like, or generally toroidal. Where a cylindrical configuration is adopted, it may be solid or shell-like with an open center.
- the particular shape of the tobacco mass is preferably adapted to the shape of the heating apparatus.
- the heating system 22 substantially encloses or surrounds a substantial portion of the tobacco mass such that at least part of the surface of the tobacco mass conforms to the heating apparatus.
- An actuation system connected with the heating system 22 is operable to electrically energize the heating system 22 .
- the actuation system may include a source of electrical energy such as one or more batteries 37 .
- a suitable switch 38 may be connected in series with the batteries 37 .
- the switch 38 may be a push-button switch, a flow sensing device, or a puff sensing device.
- a suitable conductor 36 connects the batteries 37 , the switch 38 , and the heating system 22 in series.
- the heating system 22 is operable to heat the tobacco mass to a temperature in the range of about 150° to about 220° C. to release flavorful volatiles without reaching the tobacco kindling temperature and without generating smoke and/or ash. Further, the heating system defines a heat transfer channel or pathway through which air is directed.
- the heating system 22 may comprise a generally cylindrical shell having both ends open. As best seen in FIG. 2 , the generally cylindrical shell surrounds the sides of the tobacco plug 24 .
- the heating system 22 is electrically energized to generate heat.
- the heating system 22 may be connected to a suitable source of electrical energy, such as, for example, domestic power grid, portable power generating devices like an automobile cigarette lighter, batteries, and any other suitable conventional source.
- the source of energy must be capable of delivering heat from the heating system 22 to the tobacco plug 24 so that the tobacco in the plug is raised to a temperature in the range of about 150° C. to about 220° C. Within this temperature range, the tobacco releases flavorful volatiles that produce a satisfying experience while generating little to no visible smoke.
- the heating system 22 may operate continuously for a period of time corresponding to the length of time normally used to smoke a cigarette. Conventionally, that length of time is typically taken as about 5 to 10 minutes. Alternatively, the heating system 22 may operate intermittently, on demand, for example in response to puffs by the system user.
- the heating system 22 is activated, for example, by a puff sensor or a suitable “on-off” device.
- Ambient air 26 is drawn through the open end 28 of the heating system 20 and into the tobacco plug 24 .
- the heating system 22 closely conforms to the periphery of the tobacco plug 24 and heats the tobacco plug 24 to the desired temperature range (about 150° C. to about 220° C.) by conductive and/or convective heat transfer to release flavorful volatiles from the tobacco.
- the ambient air 26 moves through the tobacco plug 24 , the air 26 entrains the released tobacco volatiles and distills those volatiles by cooling them.
- exposure to ambient air further cools the entrained volatiles to form an aerosol 32 which is delivered from the heating system 22 .
- an aerosol former may be added to the tobacco plug 24 .
- Suitable aerosol formers include, for example, glycerol, propylene glycol, triacetin, and the like, as well as mixtures thereof. Concentrations of aerosol former in the range of about 0 to about 25% by weight can be used. The aerosol formers also enhance tobacco involvement in the aerosol formation.
- the tobacco plug 24 After the tobacco plug 24 has been used, it may be removed from the heating system 22 and replaced with a fresh plug or cartridge. The spent tobacco plug 24 may be discarded.
- the electric tobacco smoking system described herein provides numerous advantages. For example, a smaller amount of tobacco is used so tobacco supplies can be extended. By using less tobacco, the disposable waste from the smoking experience is also reduced. In addition, since the heating system releases principally the flavorful volatiles from the tobacco which may be perceived as more pleasing than the sidestream aroma resulting from cigarette combustion.
- the tobacco plug 24 is not subject to actual combustion as occurs with lit-end smoking articles. Because the electric tobacco smoking system described here does not have a smoldering coal, it presents less risk of starting a fire when carelessly handled than a conventional lit-end cigarette. For the same reason, the smoking system herein described requires less cleaning as there is essentially no ash with which to contend. Furthermore, the disposable waste which does exist has less residual aroma due to the lack of combustion. Moreover, absence of smoke should obviate non-smoker objections to second-hand smoke.
- the tobacco plug 24 may be substantially enclosed by the heating system 22 .
- the heating system may include a heater 40 that is received within a generally cylindrical shroud 42 .
- the actuation system of FIG. 3 is like that of FIG. 1 and includes conductors 36 , batteries 37 , and a switch 38 .

- the ribs 44 , 46 may extend longitudinally along the outer surface of the heater 40 .
- the ribs 44 , 46 cooperate with the shroud 42 and the heater 40 to define a pair of preheating chambers or channels 48 , 50 through which air can enter the smoking system as indicated by the arrows in FIG. 3 .
- At least one of the ribs 44 , 46 also extends axially beyond the heater 40 and functions as a spacer to hold the heater 40 away from the end wall 52 of the shroud 42 .
- the cross-sectional area of the channels 48 , 50 may be selected as desired. For example, it may be desired to provide a flow area around the heater 40 which is equivalent to the flow area through the inside of the heater 40 . Or, it may be desired to provide a flow area equivalent to the flow area through the tobacco plug 24 . Regardless of the flow area selected, the heater 40 is preferably spaced from the end wall 52 by a sufficient distance that the flow area at the inner end of the heater 40 is at least as large as the flow area through the channels 48 , 50 . In this manner, the puff resistance (resistance-to-draw) is defined by the tobacco plug rather than by the assembly of the heater 40 and the shroud 42 .
- air entering the electric tobacco smoking system flows axially through the preheating chambers or channels 48 , 50 between the heater 40 and the shroud 42 .
- the air is heated by thermal energy that might otherwise escape from the outer surface of the heater 40 . That air then passes around the end of the heater, and flows through the tobacco plug 24 where it picks up flavorful volatiles from the tobacco heated by the heater 40 .
- the air 54 leaves the heater 40 , it cools so that the volatiles condense and form the aerosol 56 for delivery from the heating system 22 .
- the spacing between the heater 40 and the shroud 42 may be accomplished with structures other than the longitudinal ribs described above.
- discontinuous ribs, radially extending pins, and baffles may be used as desired. Baffles might be used to improve heat transfer to air under some circumstances.

Abstract
A tobacco mass is heated to a temperature of about 150° to about 220° C. to release flavorful tobacco volatiles, which are entrained in air passing through the tobacco mass, and condensed to form an inhalable aerosol. The tobacco mass may have a rotationally symmetric shape, with at least part of its surface in heat transfer relationship with a heater. The heater may be an external shell, an internal rod, or a plate. A shell can enclose the heater and tobacco mass and define a preheating chamber for inflowing air. A mouthpiece, with or without a filter, may be arranged in fluid communication with the tobacco mass to direct the aerosol from the heating system.

By way of example, and without limitation, the heating system may include a heating element such as a generally cylindrical heated shell with both ends open, a generally cylindrical heated shell with a closed end, an insertable heating element, a heated disk, a pair of heated disks, or the like. Such heating elements may be fabricated from an electrically resistive material which heats when electrical current passes through it. Such heating elements may also include either internal or external heating devices such as wires. Air may pass axially through the tobacco and the heating system. Alternatively, air may enter the tobacco radially and exit substantially axially.

For single and multiple puff applications, weights in the range of 5 to 150 mg. are more preferable. Weights in the range of 300 to 500 mg. are more preferable where tobacco is to be used on multiple occasions. The tobacco mass may be made from any type of tobacco, or from any portion of the tobacco plant including, without limitation, sheet products, dust, leaf, stem, and combinations thereof. In the final form, the tobacco mass could involve any type of common tobacco processing steps including, without limitation, blending, flavoring, and the like. - If desired, the
tobacco plug 24 may include a paper or mesh cover or carrier to facilitate handling. When paper is used around the tobacco plug, the paper substrate may have porosity and weight selected according to the particular shape of the heating chamber and the manner in which thetobacco plug 24 is to be used. For example, where thetobacco plug 24 is replaceable, the paper needs to have sufficient strength to maintain integrity of the tobacco plug during handling, removal, and insertion. Moreover, where the paper covers the principal movement of air through the smoking system, the paper needs to have sufficient porosity to allow air movement therethrough. Where a mesh material is selected, mesh opening should be sized small enough to contain a substantial majority, if not all, of the cut filler tobacco particles. - The tobacco mass may also be formed from tobacco particles. Whether particles or other tobacco cuts are used, the tobacco itself may function as a binder to hold tobacco pieces in a preferred shape. If desired, the tobacco used in the system can be pretreated to enhance flavor generation. Similarly, if desired, flavorants can be provided on the tobacco surface.
- The tobacco mass may be rotationally symmetric in shape or configuration. Moreover, the tobacco mass may be generally cylindrical, disk-like, or generally toroidal. Where a cylindrical configuration is adopted, it may be solid or shell-like with an open center. The particular shape of the tobacco mass is preferably adapted to the shape of the heating apparatus.
- The
heating system 22 substantially encloses or surrounds a substantial portion of the tobacco mass such that at least part of the surface of the tobacco mass conforms to the heating apparatus. An actuation system connected with theheating system 22 is operable to electrically energize theheating system 22. The actuation system may include a source of electrical energy such as one ormore batteries 37. To preserve battery life and to control activation of theheating system 22, asuitable switch 38 may be connected in series with thebatteries 37. Depending on the application, theswitch 38 may be a push-button switch, a flow sensing device, or a puff sensing device. Asuitable conductor 36 connects thebatteries 37, theswitch 38, and theheating system 22 in series. - The
heating system 22 is operable to heat the tobacco mass to a temperature in the range of about 150° to about 220° C. to release flavorful volatiles without reaching the tobacco kindling temperature and without generating smoke and/or ash. Further, the heating system defines a heat transfer channel or pathway through which air is directed. - As shown, the
heating system 22 may comprise a generally cylindrical shell having both ends open. As best seen inFIG. 2 , the generally cylindrical shell surrounds the sides of thetobacco plug 24. Theheating system 22 is electrically energized to generate heat. To that end, theheating system 22 may be connected to a suitable source of electrical energy, such as, for example, domestic power grid, portable power generating devices like an automobile cigarette lighter, batteries, and any other suitable conventional source. The source of energy must be capable of delivering heat from theheating system 22 to thetobacco plug 24 so that the tobacco in the plug is raised to a temperature in the range of about 150° C. to about 220° C. Within this temperature range, the tobacco releases flavorful volatiles that produce a satisfying experience while generating little to no visible smoke. - The
heating system 22 may operate continuously for a period of time corresponding to the length of time normally used to smoke a cigarette. Conventionally, that length of time is typically taken as about 5 to 10 minutes. Alternatively, theheating system 22 may operate intermittently, on demand, for example in response to puffs by the system user. - In use, the
heating system 22 is activated, for example, by a puff sensor or a suitable “on-off” device.Ambient air 26 is drawn through theopen end 28 of theheating system 20 and into thetobacco plug 24. Theheating system 22 closely conforms to the periphery of thetobacco plug 24 and heats thetobacco plug 24 to the desired temperature range (about 150° C. to about 220° C.) by conductive and/or convective heat transfer to release flavorful volatiles from the tobacco. As theambient air 26 moves through thetobacco plug 24, theair 26 entrains the released tobacco volatiles and distills those volatiles by cooling them. As the air with entrained volatiles leaves the second end of theheating system 22, seearrow 30, exposure to ambient air further cools the entrained volatiles to form anaerosol 32 which is delivered from theheating system 22. - If desired, an aerosol former may be added to the
tobacco plug 24. Suitable aerosol formers include, for example, glycerol, propylene glycol, triacetin, and the like, as well as mixtures thereof. Concentrations of aerosol former in the range of about 0 to about 25% by weight can be used. The aerosol formers also enhance tobacco involvement in the aerosol formation. - After the
tobacco plug 24 has been used, it may be removed from theheating system 22 and replaced with a fresh plug or cartridge. The spenttobacco plug 24 may be discarded. - It will be appreciated by those skilled in the art that the electric tobacco smoking system described herein provides numerous advantages. For example, a smaller amount of tobacco is used so tobacco supplies can be extended. By using less tobacco, the disposable waste from the smoking experience is also reduced. In addition, since the heating system releases principally the flavorful volatiles from the tobacco which may be perceived as more pleasing than the sidestream aroma resulting from cigarette combustion.
- The
tobacco plug 24 is not subject to actual combustion as occurs with lit-end smoking articles. Because the electric tobacco smoking system described here does not have a smoldering coal, it presents less risk of starting a fire when carelessly handled than a conventional lit-end cigarette. For the same reason, the smoking system herein described requires less cleaning as there is essentially no ash with which to contend. Furthermore, the disposable waste which does exist has less residual aroma due to the lack of combustion. Moreover, absence of smoke should obviate non-smoker objections to second-hand smoke. - Of course, various other embodiments of the electric tobacco smoking system are not only possible but also are within the scope of this disclosure. For example (see
FIG. 3 ), thetobacco plug 24 may be substantially enclosed by theheating system 22. In this embodiment, the heating system may include aheater 40 that is received within a generallycylindrical shroud 42. The actuation system ofFIG. 3 is like that ofFIG. 1 and includesconductors 36,batteries 37, and aswitch 38. - To provide one or more channels for air flow around the
heater 40, theheater 40 and/or theshroud 42 may include two or more radially outwardly extendingribs 44, 46 (seeFIG. 4 ) which are operable to space theheater 40 from theshroud 42. Theribs heater 40. Theribs shroud 42 and theheater 40 to define a pair of preheating chambers orchannels FIG. 3 . At least one of theribs heater 40 and functions as a spacer to hold theheater 40 away from theend wall 52 of theshroud 42. - The cross-sectional area of the
channels heater 40 which is equivalent to the flow area through the inside of theheater 40. Or, it may be desired to provide a flow area equivalent to the flow area through thetobacco plug 24. Regardless of the flow area selected, theheater 40 is preferably spaced from theend wall 52 by a sufficient distance that the flow area at the inner end of theheater 40 is at least as large as the flow area through thechannels heater 40 and theshroud 42. - With the arrangement of
FIGS. 3 and 4 , air entering the electric tobacco smoking system, seearrows 54, flows axially through the preheating chambers orchannels heater 40 and theshroud 42. During that time, the air is heated by thermal energy that might otherwise escape from the outer surface of theheater 40. That air then passes around the end of the heater, and flows through thetobacco plug 24 where it picks up flavorful volatiles from the tobacco heated by theheater 40. As theair 54 leaves theheater 40, it cools so that the volatiles condense and form theaerosol 56 for delivery from theheating system 22. - If desired, the spacing between the
heater 40 and theshroud 42 may be accomplished with structures other than the longitudinal ribs described above. For example, discontinuous ribs, radially extending pins, and baffles may be used as desired. Baffles might be used to improve heat transfer to air under some circumstances. - Thus, the embodiment of
FIGS. 3 and 4 improves the heat transfer to air and is more efficient than embodiments without theshroud 42. - The electric tobacco smoking system of this disclosure may also include a mouthpiece 60 (see
FIGS. 5 and 6 ) having an end in fluid communication with the tobacco mass. Themouthpiece 60 may be constructed and arranged such that it has a cross-sectional configuration corresponding to the cross section of theheater assembly 22. In addition, themouthpiece 60 may include a generallycylindrical shell 62 and anattachment sheath 64. Theshell 62 preferably extends outwardly from thetobacco plug 24, has an open interior, and provides a channel or passage to deliver theaerosol 32. Theshell 62 also functions to provide structural support for theheater 22 andtobacco plug 24. Thesheath 64 preferably surrounds theshell 62 and may be constructed from paper or any other suitable conventional material. - The
sheath 64 extends beyond the end of theshell 62 and into an opening within theheating assembly 22, which opening may be between theheating assembly 22 and the tobacco mass. By attaching thesheath 64 to the electrictobacco smoking system 20, the combination of thesmoking system 20 and themouthpiece 60 cosmetically resembles a conventional cigarette. - When more than one
mouthpiece 60 will be used with thesmoking system 20, or when onemouthpiece 60 will be used with more than onesmoking system 20, the sheath may be fabricated from a sufficiently rigid material that the mouthpiece can be removably attached to thesmoking system 20 by inserting the extending portion of thesheath 64 between theheating assembly 22 and thetobacco plug 24. For some applications, it may also be desirable to provide a suitable filter (not shown) such as a plug of cellulose acetate in the discharge end of themouthpiece 60. Typically, such a filter would be located at an end of the mouthpiece. The actuation system ofFIG. 5 is like that ofFIG. 1 and includesconductors 36,batteries 37, and aswitch 38; however, inFIG. 5 , theswitch 38 may be a puff sensing device or an air flow sensing device. - Another arrangement for the heating assembly is shown in
FIGS. 7 and 8 . In this embodiment, the heating assembly includes anend piece 70 and aprojection 72. Theprojection 72 may, for example, be a rod constructed and arranged so that it can be inserted into and received by thetobacco plug 24. The axial length of theprojection 72 is selected so that it does not extend all the way through the tobacco plug. The end piece orheater disk 70 includes air passages oropenings tobacco plug 24. At least one of theend piece 70 and theprojection 72 may be energized to generate heat, e.g., by resistance heating or induction heating. Presently it is contemplated that both theend piece 70 and theprojection 72 are capable of generating heat. However, if thetobacco plug 24 has a small diameter compared to the transverse dimensions of theprojection 72, sufficient heat may be generated by theprojection 72 that additional heat from theend piece 70 is not needed. The actuation system ofFIG. 7 is like that ofFIG. 1 and includesconductors 36,batteries 37, and aswitch 38. - While the
end piece 70 is depicted with two openings, the number, arrangement, and shape of the openings can vary. For example, a pattern of circular holes could be used if desired. Where theend piece 70 is heated, heat transfer to the air passing through the openings can be increased by using smaller openings. - If desired, the
heating assembly tobacco plug 24 may be enclosed in other structures. For example, a cylindrical shell may surround the tobacco plug, or the tobacco plug along with theend piece 70. Such a cylindrical shell could also include a mouthpiece portion. - The embodiments discussed above include a generally cylindrical plug of tobacco; however, that shape for the tobacco is not critical. The cross section may be circular, as shown. Alternatively, the cross section can be uniform or non-uniform and can have any desired shape such a polygonal, elliptical, oval, toroidal, and the like. Moreover, the tobacco can have other suitable shapes as will be apparent to those skilled in the art. For example, the tobacco can be shaped as a pillow, i.e., a unit having a depth which is small compared with the transverse dimension. The pillow may be circular, rectangular, polygonal, polygonal with rounded corners, toroidal, or the like.
- A generally circular embodiment of the pillow arrangement is depicted in
FIGS. 9 and 10 . Here, thepillow 80 is fashioned from cut filler tobacco. As desired, thepillow 80 may include a permeable membrane surrounding it to hold its shape and facilitate handling. The thickness of thepillow 80 may be in the range of 10-80% of a nominal transverse dimension of thepillow 80. In the context ofFIG. 9 , the nominal transverse dimension would be measured in the vertical direction and would correspond to the diameter of thepillow 80. The pillow thickness would be measured in the horizontal direction, axially in the direction of airflow. - The
heating system 82 for this embodiment comprises a heating plate in heat transfer relationship with thetobacco pillow 80. The actuation system ofFIG. 9 is like that ofFIG. 1 and includesconductors 36,batteries 37, and aswitch 38. Theplate 82 may be a generally circular disk and may include a plurality ofopenings 84 to permit air to flow into thepillow 80. Thoseopenings 84 may have any desired shape. In some applications, theopenings 84 will be sized to provide heat transfer from theheating plate 82 to air (see arrows 86) before the air enters thetobacco pillow 80. - Thermal energy from the
plate 82 is applied to thetobacco pillow 80 by conduction and convection so that the temperature of the pillow is raised to release the flavorful volatiles. As with other embodiments, that temperature lies in the range of about 150° to about 220° C. As air leaves the tobacco pillow with the entrained flavorful volatiles (see arrows 88), the flavorful volatiles cool to form an aerosol (see arrow 90). - A
pillow 80 having radial air inflow and axial outflow is shown inFIGS. 11 and 12 . In this embodiment, the heating arrangement may include a disk-shapedheater 92 and anannular heater 94. Thedisk heater 92 and theannular heater 94 are spaced from one another by a distance corresponding to the thickness of thepillow 80 and sandwich the pillow therebetween. Both thedisk heater 92 and theannular heater 94 have heat transfer relationship with thepillow 80 so that theheaters pillow 80 to a temperature sufficient to release the flavorful volatiles (i.e., about 150° to about 220° C.). The actuation system ofFIG. 11 is like that ofFIG. 1 and includesconductors 36,batteries 37, and aswitch 38. - In this arrangement, ambient air enters the
pillow 90 in a generally radial direction, for example, in response to inhalation. As the ambient air passes through thepillow 80, its temperature rises by heat transfer from one or both of theheaters annular heater 94. The air with entrained tobacco volatiles cools as it leaves the heater and condenses to form an aerosol (arrow 98). - To enhance the heating efficiency of the embodiment of
FIGS. 11 and 12 , the assembly of atobacco pillow 80, thedisk heater 92, and theannular heater 94 may be enclosed in a housing 100 (seeFIGS. 13 and 14 ). Thehousing 100 may include awall 102 fabricated from an insulating material to reduce heat loss from thedisk heater 92. Preferably the insulatingwall 102 is substantially coextensive with thedisk heater 92. Thehousing 100 also includes abaffle portion 103 attached to the insulatingwall 102 and operable to direct airflow into the tobacco mass. Thebaffle 103 is spaced radially from both thedisk heater 92 and theannular heater 94. Moreover, thebaffle 103 is spaced axially in front of theannular heater 94. Although the actuation system is not schematically shown inFIG. 13 , the actuation system forFIG. 13 is like that ofFIG. 1 and includes conductors, batteries, and a switch. - With that arrangement, the
baffle 103 forms aninternal channel 104, which receives ambient air through anannular opening 106 and directs that ambient air radially outwardly through a preheating passage, defined between theannular heater 94 and the baffle, to a collector substantially surrounding the peripheral edge of thepillow 80. As the air passes theannular heater 94 in thechannel 104, the air is heated thereby reducing energy loss or waste from theannular heater 94. The heated air then passes radially inwardly through thepillow 80 between thedisk heater 92 and theannular heater 94 and leaves through the generallycircular opening 96. - A generally
cylindrical connector tube 108 with a generally circular cross section is fitted into theopening 96 and provides a passageway for heated air with entrained tobacco volatiles leaving thepillow 80 through theopening 96. In addition, thetube 108 cooperates with thecentral opening 110 of thebaffle 103 to define anannular inlet opening 106. As air leaves thetube 108, it cools and the entrained tobacco volatiles form an aerosol. - Use of a generally toriodal tobacco mass is depicted in
FIGS. 15 and 16 . Here, the structural characteristics of the electric tobacco heater are essentially the same as those of the heater described above in connection withFIGS. 13 and 14 . Although the actuation system is not schematically shown inFIG. 15 , the actuation system forFIG. 15 is like that ofFIG. 1 and includes conductors, batteries, and a switch. The principal difference being the tobacco mass, which is used. Here thetobacco mass 120 is generally toroidally shaped, i.e., shaped like a donut. Thetobacco donut 120 is sandwiched between thedisk heater 92 and theannular heater 94 so that the tobacco donut contacts both heaters. In this way, air is forced to travel through thetobacco donut 120. Preferably, the tobacco donut does not extend outwardly to touch theshell 103 so that the passageway for air is not obstructed. - The electric tobacco heater (
FIG. 15 ) is shown with amouthpiece 122 attached at one end to thetube 108. At the other end, themouthpiece 122 may include asuitable filter 124. - It is also contemplated that the tobacco mass may be arranged so that successive portions of the tobacco mass can be advanced to the heating system. Individual tobacco mass portions may be used for a time corresponding generally to one puff, to multiple puffs, or to correspond to a time comparable to the smoking of a conventional cigarette. The embodiments of
FIGS. 9-12 are particularly well suited for such applications. For example, successive tobacco mass portions may be carried on a tape and advanced into position relative to the heating system by a suitable indexing arrangement. Alternatively, the tobacco mass portions may be carried by a cassette, or may comprise discrete packages. - The terms and phases used herein are not to be interpreted with mathematical or geometric precision, rather geometric terminology is to be interpreted as meaning approximating or similar to the geometric terms and concepts. Where the term “about” is used in relation to a number, it is intended that such number has a tolerance of plus or minus 5%. Similarly, such terms as “generally” and “substantially” are intended to encompass both precise meanings of the associated terms and concepts as well as to provide reasonable latitude which is consistent with form, function, and/or meaning.
- It will now be apparent to those skilled in the art that this specification describes a new, useful, and nonobvious smokeless electric tobacco smoking system. It will also be apparent to those skilled in the art that numerous modifications, variations, substitutes, and equivalents exist for various aspects of the invention that have been described in the detailed description above. Accordingly, it is expressly intended that all such modifications, variations, substitutions, and equivalents that fall within the spirit and scope of the invention, as defined by the appended claims, be embraced thereby.
