Technical Field

The present invention relates to a smoking jig in which an atomizer (atomiz er) of an electronic cigarette is attached to a smoking jig (jig) capable of heating tobacco leaves by a heater to thereby enable a smoker to simultaneously inhale nicotine and cigarette flavor generated by heating the tobacco leaves and vapor (smoke) generated by the atomizer from a filter of a cigarette with a heated cigarette filter inserted into the jig or from a mouthpiece attached to a tobacco leaf insertion tube into which the tobacco leaves are inserted. The nebulizer for an electronic cigarette is a nebulizer that generates vapor (smoke) by putting a liquid containing glycerin, propylene glycol, or the like as a main component and heating the liquid by a heater provided in the nebulizer. Hereinafter, in the present application, the above-mentioned vapor (smoke) is expressed as smoke of an electronic cigarette.

Background

The heated cigarette is a product called IQOS which was sold in japan by philips morris in 2014, a product called glo which was sold in sendai in 2016 BAT, or a product called Ploom S which was sold in JT 2019. These products are products in which a cigarette with a special filter is inserted into a special smoking jig, and tobacco leaves are heated by a heater in the jig, thereby releasing nicotine, cigarette flavor, and smoke. When the tobacco leaf part of a cigarette with a conventional filter for lighting is heated by a heater, nicotine and cigarette flavor are released, but smoke is hardly released. As for the tobacco leaves of the above-mentioned cigarette with a dedicated filter, tobacco leaves subjected to special chemical treatment such as releasing smoke when heated by a heater are being used. The cigarette with the IQOS filter is heated at about 300 deg.C, called a "heating rod" (Hea t stick), about

The cigarette with a length of about 45mm and a filter for glo is heated at about 300 ℃, and is called a "New stick" (about)

The length is 83mmOn the left and right, the cigarettes with the Ptools S filters are heated at about 200 ℃ and are called "cigarette sticks", about

The length is about 55 mm. In this way, since the heating temperature of the cigarette with the heated cigarette filter and the diameter and length of the cigarette with the filter of each company are different from each other, smoking cannot be performed by one heating jig. However, these cigarettes with filters have a filter portion with many gaps for transferring to the smoker's mouth without absorbing nicotine or cigarette flavor or smoke generated by heating tobacco leaves. And, in cigarettes with conventional filters for lighting up smoking, aboutThe most sold cigarettes.

Disclosure of Invention

The present invention is further improved from the smoking jig described in patent document 1. The inventors of the present application tried to make the above smoking clip, suggested the smoker to use it, and investigated the problem. As a result, it has been found that, when the tobacco leaf of a cigarette with a conventional filter or the "heating rod" is used with the smoking jig, the heating cylinder portion is also detached if the cigarette holder is replaced, and the smoking jig needs to be reassembled every time the cigarette to be used is replaced, and that the smoking jig is a jig which is difficult to use.

Detailed Description

Fig. 7 is an axial sectional view of the smokeless smoking jig 100 disclosed in patent document 2 and patent document 3, wherein the smokeless smoking jig 100 is composed of a heating cylinder portion 91, a cigarette holding portion 93, a power supply portion, a control circuit portion, an end fitting 102, a lower outer tube 105, an upper outer tube 107, and the like, and the heating cylinder portion 91 is composed of a base 33, a P plate B11, a P plate C12, an inner tube 5, a P plate D13, and a heating portion 92 (composed of a pin C58, a pin D59, a P plate a10, and a heater 131); the cigarette holder 93 is composed of a front end member a109, a P plate F17, a spring 20, a screw 74, and a front end member B110; the power supply part comprises a lithium ion rechargeable battery 7, a rechargeable battery bracket 9, a P board D16, a power supply SW28, a circuit for receiving Direct Current (DC)5V from the outside and charging the rechargeable battery, and a connector for supplying power to the control part; the control circuit unit is composed of a main P plate 31, a buzzer (buzzer)201, a slider SW121, a slider SW222, a button SW6, a pin a18, and a pin B19; the terminal member 102 has a stop 8; the upper outer tube 107 has an air blow hole 1. The P plate C12 and the P plate B11 are bonded together, or a single P plate can be produced. Further, 2 to 4 pins are used between the P plate D13 and the P plate B11, so that the positional relationship therebetween does not change.

Fig. 3 is an axial sectional view of a heating cylinder 91 used in the present invention. The heating cylinder 91 has almost the same contents as those described in patent documents 2 and 3, but the heating cylinder 91 used in the present invention will be described with reference to fig. 3. The heating section 92 constituting the heating cylinder 91 is constituted by a heater 131, a P plate a10, a P plate B11, a P plate C12, a P plate D13, a P plate E14, a pin D59, and a pin C58. The P-plate a10 includes a wiring C60, a wiring D61, and a hole 62. 2 legs of the heater 131 are soldered to the P plate B11, and the P plate a10, and further the pin C58 and the pin D59 are wired using the wiring C60 and the wiring D61. It is apparent that the heater 131 can be supplied with power by connecting the wires to the right side of the pins C58 and D59. However, the heater 131 used in the present invention is formed by printing a resistive material on the surface of a ceramic rod, and has the same function as the heater except for the structure disclosed in patent documents 2 and 3. However, in the present application, the diameters of the P plate B11, the P plate C12, and the P plate D13 are slightly smaller than the inner diameter of the inner tube 5, and the smoke of the electronic cigarette entering from the hole 62 passes through the space formed by the P plate a10 and the P plate B11, then passes through the gap between the inner diameter of the inner tube 5 and the outer diameters of the P plate B11, the P plate C12, and the P plate D13, or the holes penetrating these three P plates. The heating cylinder 91 is formed by inserting a thin AL pipe 5 into the heating portion 92, and a circular groove is formed in the P plate a10 in a recessed manner, and the left side of the AL pipe 5 is fitted into the groove. Further, an O-ring is put in the fitting portion or the fitting portion is fixed with a heat-resistant adhesive so as to prevent air from leaking from the fitting portion.

The smokeless smoking jig 100 disclosed in patent document 2 or patent document 3 uses the cigarette "heating rod" 68 with a filter for IQOS, but cannot use IQOS, but can set the heating temperature or heating time of the inserted tobacco leaf to a temperature or time preferred by the smoker by using the slider S W121 and the slider SW 222.

When the smoking jig disclosed in patent document 1 is used, it cannot be used unless the cigarette holding section and the heating section are mounted. However, if the cigarette holding portion is replaced, the heating portion is also detached. In actual use, the detachment of the heating portion also causes inconvenience, and a configuration in which only the cigarette holding portion can be replaced by actual monitoring is desired.

Therefore, as shown in fig. 1, the inventor of the present application provided a vertical part 611 at the right front end of the lower outer tube 105, and as shown in fig. 2, the vertical part 611 was provided with buttons SW6 and 2 connectors 202, and a P-plate 602 having a hole was attached to the center part, so that the inserted cigarette passed through. The button SW6 and the connector 202 are wired to a control circuit (not shown). In the present application, the portion indicated as the bushing 230 in patent document 1 is replaced with a silicon 230 having a hole. The reason for the replacement is that when the atomizer 94 with the bush is attached, it is difficult to accurately insert the tip end portion of the bush 230 into the hole 62 of the P plate a 10. If silicon with holes is used, it is sufficient to contact the P plate a in a plane regardless of the holes 62, and insertion is easy.

Fig. 4 is an axial sectional view of the cigarette holding part 93 according to the present invention. The cigarette holding portion 93 includes: a cigarette insertion tube 605 having a smoke blowing port 606, a hole 607 for passing a heater; a front end member a109 having a cigarette insertion port 608; p panel F17; a spring 20; screw holes 74; front end component B110. The front-end component B110 has a projection 610. The cigarette insertion tube 605 or the silicon O-ring 400 is inserted into the boss portion 610 to improve the sealing property with the inner tube 5. When the P plate F17 is pushed down to insert the cigarette with filter from the cigarette insertion opening 608 to the inside and the pushing of the P plate F17 is stopped, the P plate F17 is pushed upward by the force of the spring 20, and the inserted cigarette with filter does not drop out. At this time, the inner diameter of the convex portion 610 is almost the same as the outer diameter of the cigarette with filter which is nearly completely inserted, and thus air hardly passes through this portion. It is obvious that if the diameter and length of the inserted cigarette are different, the inner diameter of the boss 610 and the length of the cigarette insertion tube 605 can be replaced. In addition, the boss 610 may be formed in the AL pipe. The reason for this is that the thickness of the boss portion 610 can be reduced, and the portion other than the boss portion can be used as a common member. That is, since the boss portion is formed in the AL tube and the thickness of the AL tube is changed, it is possible to cope with the difference in the diameter of the filter-tipped cigarette to be inserted. The cigarette insertion tube 605 is formed by cutting and molding so as to have a shape shown in a sectional view. The material used was AL or Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE). The smoke blowing port 606 penetrating the cigarette insertion tube 605 effectively transfers smoke generated by the atomizer 94 to the mouth of the smoker. When the smoke inlet 606 is not provided, the smoke enters the cigarette insertion tube 605 through the hole 607 and is transferred to the mouth of the smoker, but at this time, the smoke passes through the tobacco leaf inside the cigarette insertion tube, and a considerable amount of smoke particles are absorbed by the tobacco leaf, and as a result, it is found that the smoke of about 1/3 generated cannot reach the mouth of the smoker. Thus, it can be seen that the smoke blowing-in port 606 is provided as a bypass for the passage of smoke (hole 606 → cigarette paper → filter portion → mouth of smoker), whereby most of the smoke produced is transferred to the mouth of smoker.

In order to reduce the manufacturing cost of the cigarette insertion tube 605, the present inventors cut an AL tube to a desired size and manufactured the AL tube by sandwiching the PTFE bush 710 shown in fig. 9 in the tip portion. Therefore, an expensive mold and an expensive cutting process are not required, and thus the cigarette insertion tube 605 can be manufactured at a very low cost. Also, when cutting the AL pipe, the AL pipe having a length 2 times as large as the required size is first manufactured, and the center thereof is cut by a pipe cutter having a rotary blade. In this case, it was found that the cutting portion is slightly deformed inward by slightly reducing the sharpness of the rotary blade, and the inserted bush is hardly detached by forming a cut surface in a state of a screw cross section after cutting. The partially notched portion 711 of the liner 710 has the same function as the flue gas inlet 606 shown in fig. 4. Further, the boss 712 of the bushing 710 may be provided with a notch. The notch portion can prevent the front end of the inserted cigarette from blocking the hole 607 and preventing the smoke from passing through. Also, it is apparent that even though the bushing 710 is a washer (washbher) without a boss, it has the same function. Further, when the AL tube is cut to a desired size, the bush or the gasket is used, the AL tube is made to have a certain length, and the insertion position of the bush or the gasket is changed, thereby having an advantage that it is possible to cope with cigarettes with filters of different lengths.

Fig. 5 is an axial sectional view showing a state of the cigarette holding portion without the smoking jig according to the present invention (the power supply portion and the control portion are omitted). The heating cylinder 91 shown in fig. 3 is attached to the structure shown in fig. 2. In this state, the smoking jig operates. That is, the pins C58 and D59 of the heating cylinder 91 are inserted into the connector 202 on the P-plate 602 and connected to the control circuit unit.

Fig. 6 is an axial sectional view of the cigarette holder 93 shown in fig. 4 in a state inserted into the smoking jig in fig. 5 from the right side. In this state, a screw (not shown) is inserted into and fixed to the screw hole 74. By sandwiching three types, such as "heating rod" or "cigarette rod" or tobacco leaf, between the cigarette holding portions 93, only the cigarette holding portions 93 can be replaced for use according to the cigarettes used.

Fig. 8 shows a heating cylinder 702 according to another embodiment of the present invention. The heater 131 is located outside the heating cylinder 702 and heats the entire cylinder. The insertion portion 701, the heating cylinder portion 702, the sprayer connection portion 703, and the stopper 704 are formed by cutting or molding using a heat-resistant resin such as PTFE. Alternatively, the nebulizer may be formed at the nebulizer attachment portion. This shape is characterized in that a stopper 704 is formed. The stopper 704 functions to prevent the inserted heating rod 68 from being further inserted and to guide the flue gas passing through the atomizer attachment 703 to be transferred to the side of the heating rod 68 via the space 705. Without the stopper 704, the tip of the inserted heating rod 68 would block the hole of the atomizer attachment portion 703, and thus the smoke generated by the atomizer would not be sufficiently transferred to the mouth of the smoker.

Also, the smoking jig of the present invention has built-in software so as to be able to be customized according to the customer (cus tomize). First, if the power is turned ON (ON) while the button SW is pressed, the built-in software reads the set values of the slider SW1 and the slider SW 2. Since the slider SW uses 1 circuit 3 contact, if the slider SW1 is set to 1 and the slider SW2 is set to 1, 2, 3, the smoke generation time of the nebulizer can be customized to 3 seconds, 3.5 seconds, 4 seconds. If the setting slider SW1 is 2 and the setting slider SW2 is 1, 2, 3, the built-in buzzer can be customized to sound, not sound, and be used only as an e-cigarette. If the slide member SW1 is set to 3 and the slide member SW2 is set to 1, 2, 3, the smoking time can be set to 4.5, 5.5, 6.5 points.

Further, as for the heating temperature of the heated tobacco leaves, after the power is turned ON (ON), DC is driven by the output voltage of the lithium ion rechargeable battery, so that the temperature of the heater is rapidly increased, and the waiting time before smoking is started is shortened. Further, there is also an idea that nicotine remaining in tobacco leaves is removed by applying a voltage so as to raise the heating temperature of the heater slightly from about 1 minute before smoking is completed.

Further, since the resistance values of the heater of the atomizer and the heater 131 are very low, about 1.0 to about 2.0 Ω, if power is applied simultaneously, the output voltage is greatly reduced due to the internal resistance of the lithium ion rechargeable battery, and thus, the heaters cannot be turned ON (ON) simultaneously. Therefore, the heater for heating the tobacco leaves cannot be supplied with power within several seconds of the generation of the smoke, and thus there is a problem that the heating temperature of the tobacco leaves is lowered in the process of generating the smoke. In order to solve this problem, the inventors of the present application have applied the output voltage of the lithium ion rechargeable battery directly to the heater for a time proportional to the smoke generation time to rapidly recover the heater temperature, and by this method, the heater temperature for heating tobacco leaves can be maintained constantly even if smoke is generated. Also, the power supply to the conventional heater is supplied in a rectangular wave output manner, instead of directly applying the voltage of the lithium ion rechargeable battery.

Industrial applicability

The invention develops a smoking jig, in which a sprayer for electronic cigarettes and a tobacco leaf heating tube are placed, both of which are air-tight, and the power and application time to the sprayer heater and the power and time to the tobacco leaf heating heater are controlled, respectively, so that a preferred amount of smoke and a preferred nicotine and cigarette flavor can be set, and various smoking methods can be enjoyed. Furthermore, a smoking mode of putting tobacco leaves into the tobacco leaf inserting pipe can be realized, and the smoking cost can be greatly reduced. Further, even if the type of filter-tipped cigarette to be inserted is different, only the cigarette holder 93 may be replaced.
