Description
- The present disclosure relates to the field of heating non-combustion smoking set, and in particular, to a plug-in oxygen-deficient heating smoking set, as well as a cigarette system and smoking method containing the smoking set.
- Traditional tobacco, with a history of hundreds of years, has been integrated into the lives of most smokers. With the improvement of people's living standards in recent years, people are paying increasing attention to the problems of smoking and health, and the harm of second-hand smoke, the harm caused by traditional tobacco products is becoming increasingly prominent. Meanwhile, with the implementation of World Health Organization Framework Convention on Tobacco Control (WHO FCTC), especially the gradual expansion of smoking bans in public places around the world, the development environment of tobacco products has undergone major and profound changes, and the structure of tobacco products is accelerating adjustments in the direction of diversification and smoke-free. New tobacco products have gradually become a realistic choice for major multinational tobacco companies to cope with the declining sales of traditional tobacco products.
- At present, most heated cigarettes use air as the carrier of smoke, in order to ensure that the tobacco does not burn, the heating temperature applied is usually low, generally not exceeding 300°C; compared with traditional cigarettes, the tobacco aroma components of new heating non-combustion cigarettes are difficult to completely release, and the amount of smoke is insufficient, thus, such cigarettes are more difficult to be accepted by traditional smokers. In addition, in order to ensure air circulation, the tobacco end of most heating non-combustion cigarettes has an open structure, namely, shredded tobacco or reconstituted tobacco are directly exposed, or connected to the outside through a certain airflow channel, in the process of pulling out the cartridge after smoking, the tobacco residue may fall off, which is easy to cause pollution to the smoking set, thus, after using such type of tobacco for a period of time, it takes time to clean the smoking set. Such smoking set are exemplified by e.g. the following documents:
US 3 796 223 A ,EP 2 967 137 A2 ,CN 209 031 264 U andUS 2013/014574 A1 . - In case a closed cigarette structure is used, the oxygen content may decrease in the heating process (due to the replacement effect of the formed fresh smoke on the internal atmosphere), at this time, there may be no burning even if the heating temperature is increased, and the tobacco residue may not fall and contaminate the smoking set.

- The principle of the present disclosure is as follows:
Coanda effect, also known as the wall-attachment effect or Coandǎ effect, refers to when fluid flows over the surface of an object, due to surface friction, the fluid water flow or air flow has a tendency to depart from the original flow direction and change to flow along the surface of the protruding object. - Venturi phenomenon means that low pressure may be generated near the fluid flowing at high speed, causing adsorption. By utilizing Coanda effect, the air entering the small holes can flow along the surface of the smoke extraction cone; due to Venturi phenomenon, the gas flowing at high speed along the surface of the extraction cone may form a negative pressure area at the mouth of the extraction cone, due to the existence of pressure difference, the smoke generated by the closed tobacco section can be extracted.
- By utilizing Coanda effect, Venturi phenomenon, and natural pressurization of the smoke generated when the shredded tobacco is heated, the fresh smoke generated in the enclosed space can be extracted.
- The present disclosure has the following beneficial effects:
- 1. In the present disclosure, the air does not flow through the tobacco section, but a smoke extraction element is designed by utilizing Venturi effect and Coanda effect to extract the fresh smoke generated in the enclosed space, which can reduce oxygen content, thus the heating temperature can be appropriately increased, the cigarettes may not burn, and it is easier to achieve the diversity of the tobacco section formulas, aroma components in tobacco can be released fully and continuously, making the taste closer to traditional tobacco, thus it is easier to be accepted by traditional smokers. In particular, the mainstream smoke forming tube has an internal cavity, the outline of the cavity has a Venturi tube structure, the smoke extraction effect is enhanced, which can reduce the oxygen content of the tobacco section while extracting the fresh smoke generated in the enclosed space, thus, while the cigarette does not burn, the temperature of the heated cigarette can be appropriately increased to meet the requirements of smoke concentration.
- 2. In the preferred technical solution, the smoke extraction element is kept inside the cigarette accommodating cavity by means of a fixing and limiting mechanism, so that it is not easy to fall and lose. There is a door at the bottom of the cigarette accommodating cavity in order to move the smoke extraction element, the tobacco section and the filter section are respectively inserted/disassembled at both ends of the cigarette accommodating cavity, which is convenient for operation. In the prior art, the bottom of the cigarette accommodating cavity is sealed, the cigarette can only be pulled out from the end of the filter after the cigarette is smoked. At this time, the cigarette is heated to expand and becomes more brittle, making it more difficult to take out.
- 3. In the preferred technical solution, when heating, the boss on the door presses the tobacco section to form a closed structure, so that no tobacco residue will fall, there is no need to clean the smoking set frequently.
- 4. In the preferred technical solution, toward one side of the mainstream smoke forming tube, the airflow channel becomes narrower. As airflow velocity gradually increases, Coanda effect and Venturi phenomenon are more significant, and the smoke extraction effect is enhanced.
- 5. In the preferred technical solution, an annular boss is provided on the circumferential side wall of the tapered cavity of the Venturi structure of the mainstream smoke forming tube of the smoke extraction element at a position corresponding to the cone hole, the annular boss reduces the flow area of the airflow channel at the cone hole, further increasing the gas flow rate while reducing the pressure, making Venturi phenomenon more significant and further enhancing the effect of smoke extraction.
