    摘要: The present disclosure provides an aerosol delivery device comprising an aerosol canister containing pressurized aerosol, a metering valve, a mouthpiece, and an actuating assembly located in the mouthpiece. The actuating assembly comprises a button and an actuator and is configured to transform a button force applied to the button along a first path into an actuating force applied to the actuator along a second path, the first and second paths being noncollinear so as to actuate the metering valve to release at least a portion of the pressurized aerosol from the canister through the mouthpiece. In some implementations, the button and the actuator may comprise respective gear racks, and the actuating assembly may further include at least one pinion gear configured to engage the respective button and actuator gear racks. The actuating assembly may also include a nozzle insert configured to create a desired ejection pattern through the mouthpiece.

    摘要: An inhaler article has an inhaler body comprising a tubular side wall defining an interior and a longitudinal center axis, the interior forming a receptacle for housing an inhalable powder; a mouthpiece element extending along the longitudinal center axis from a distal end to a proximal end, the distal end of the mouthpiece element being received in the interior of the inhaler body. The mouthpiece element includes a tube extending coaxially with the inhaler body and comprising an interior surface having a first diameter; a blocker disposed at the distal end of the mouthpiece element, coaxial with the tube and having a second diameter that is greater than the first diameter; and a collector surface comprising a ring that is coaxial with and disposed proximal to the blocker, the ring defining an inner diameter and an outer diameter.

    摘要: An inhaler article includes a body (110) extending along a longitudinal axis from a mouthpiece (112) end to a distal end with an endpiece element at the distal end (114). A capsule cavity is defined within the body. An air inlet region is between the endpiece element (120) and the capsule cavity (116). A composite porous support element (140) defines a downstream end of the capsule cavity. The composite porous support element is formed of a first porous material concentrically disposed about a second porous material. The first porous material has a first resistance to draw and the second porous material having a second resistance to draw. The first resistance to draw is different than the second resistance to draw. A mouthpiece air channel (113) extends from the capsule cavity, through the composite porous element to the mouthpiece end.
