Problems solved by technology

Even if in some cases the products of combustion are not directly inhaled, at least they are expelled directly into and around the smoker's environment, greatly reducing the benefits of this alternative

Embodiment Construction

[0035] [35] The cigarette substitute comprises: a hollow tubular element 1 closed by a filter body 2 at one end 1a thereof and closed by a bright member 9 at the other end 1b thereof, said The illuminated part simulates the white-hot light of a cigarette.

[0036] [36] Behind said filter body 2, there is an air velocity regulator 3. The air velocity regulator may be made from a perforated disk. The hole diameter is determined to counteract the airflow braking force, which is equal to the resistance against the draw of a real cigarette.

[0037] [37] Then there is the contactor 4, comprising for example a perforated disc which pivots between an open rest position in which it is separated from the contact plate and a closed position in which , the perforated disc is in close contact with the contact plate. A return spring, not shown, tends to bring the contactor to the open rest position. When the smoker draws a puff through the tubular element, the air flow causes the closu...

Abstract

The invention relates to a cigarette substitute, comprising a hollow tubular element (1) provided with a generator of products to be inhaled (7, 8), with internal heating means (6) for heating the inspired air or at least part of the generator of products to be inhaled, and with a device (8) for triggering the generator of products to be inhaled. It is characterized in that the triggering device comprises an element (8) sensitive to the heat produced by heating means that are situated outside the substitute (1) and are independent of the latter, said heat-sensitive element (8) being made of a material that cannot ignite or burn under the conditions of normal use of the substitute (1). It is thus possible to activate the cigarette substitute with the aid of a flame, without thereby causing combustion of the generator of products to be inhaled.

Description

technical field [0001] [01] The present invention relates to a cigarette substitute comprising: a hollow tubular member equipped with an inhalable formulation generator; an internal heating element for heating the inhaled air or heating said inhalable formulation generator at least a portion of the device; and an activation device for activating the inhalable formulation generator. Background technique [0002] [02] There are pharmaceutical and non-pharmacological aids available to those wishing to quit smoking. Quitting smoking requires not only quitting nicotine, but also quitting the smoking reflex. These two factors are the main reasons why smoking cessation treatment fails. [0003] [03] To this end, different cigarette substitutes have been proposed, all of which mimic the action of lighting a cigarette, but do not release the toxic substances such as tar of real cigarettes. Depending on the example, these substitutes deliver only nicotine or only flavor and / or tast...
