    摘要: An aerosol-generating apparatus includes a mouthpiece, an aerosolizing thermal reactor, and an air preheating passage. The aerosolizing thermal reactor has an air inlet upstream of an aerosol outlet, and includes an aerosolizable substance chamber and a thermal distribution casing. The thermal distribution casing surrounds the aerosolizable substance chamber and includes a laminate material with an at least three-layer construction including a metal middle layer between a metal outer layer and a metal inner layer. The thermal conductivity of the metal inner layer is at least double that of each of the metal outer and inner layers. The air preheating passage is located downstream of the air inlet and upstream of the aerosolizable substance chamber, and surrounds the aerosolizable substance chamber. The air preheating passage is defined by an air gap between the chamber outer wall and the metal inner layer.

    摘要: My powder inhalers are described. The dry powder inhaler includes an air inlet, a reservoir and an airway assembly. A mouthpiece airway is connected to a first airway of the airway assembly. An airway head is attached to the airway assembly and it extends into the reservoir cavity. In certain embodiments, the airway head has a sharpened or beveled edge. At least one airway assembly opening is present in the airway assembly for connecting the reservoir cavity to the first airway. Methods for dispensing dry powder into an airway of a dry powder inhaler and inhaling dry powder from a dry powder inhaler is also disclosed. Embodiments of a dry powder inhaler having a two-stage air movement are also described.

    摘要: A stable-foam inhalation-device cartridge for a stable-foam inhalation device which dispenses a stable foam to be consumed by a user. The cartridge is devoid of an electrical energisation component. The cartridge includes a flexible mixing chamber, first and second foam-generation elements, an expansion chamber, a partitioning element having one or more mixing members for agitating a consumable foam and a discharge element. The discharge element has an outlet opening an inlet opening and a discharge conduit which interconnects the inlet opening with the outlet opening. The discharge conduit has a longitudinal extent which locates the inlet opening at a position closer to the partitioning element than to the outlet opening.

    摘要: An inhaler system includes an inhaler article and a piercing article. The piercing article contains a recessed piercing element and is configured to receive a distal end of the inhaler article. The piercing element pierces or punctures a single hole into a capsule contained within the inhaler article when the inhaler article is seated into the piercing article.

    摘要: An inhaler article (100) includes a body (110) extending along a longitudinal axis (LA) from a mouthpiece end (112) to a distal end (114). A capsule cavity (116) is defined within the body and extends along the longitudinal axis. A mouthpiece air channel (111) extends from the capsule cavity to the mouthpiece end. A boundary element (140) is located between the capsule cavity and the mouthpiece air channel. The boundary element includes at least two concentric rings of apertures (142, 144) fluidly connecting the capsule cavity with the mouthpiece air channel, wherein each of the inner appertures of the inner concentric ring has an open area less than each of the outer apertures of the outer concentric ring of apertures.

    摘要: Provided are devices for delivering volatile compound(s) to individuals. The delivery devices can be unpowered devices. The volatile compound(s) can be flavored. Delivery device can comprise engageable components releasably held together by a selectively releasable attachment mechanism. In aspects, the delivery devices further comprise an adjustable airflow control mechanism. In aspects, movement of delivery device components is associated with visual, audible, tactile, or audible and tactile indication of movement or position of device elements. In aspects, element(s) of a delivery device or a device in a system serve as a fidget movement element, being detectably moveable within a short period upon application of a small initiation force easily being returned to a position suitable for repeating the movement. Further provided are methods of using such delivery devices or systems for promoting user sensory experiences or for other beneficial effects, such as reducing habit-related behaviors or sensations.
