Abstract: An aerosol generation device includes a case into which a cigarette is inserted, a heater disposed in the case and configured to heat the cigarette inserted into the case, a mainstream smoke passage connecting an end portion of the cigarette to the outside, and a pressure detection sensor configured to detect a change in a pressure of air inhaled to pass through the cigarette.

Abstract: An aerosol generating device includes: a case; a container mounted inside the case to be movable in a longitudinal direction of the case and having an accommodating space configured to accommodate a cigarette; a heater disposed inside the case such that a front end thereof is inserted into the accommodating space of the container, the heater being configured to heat the cigarette when electricity is applied thereto; and an elastic support portion configured to elastically support the container with respect to the case.

Abstract: An aerosol generating apparatus provided with a movable heater includes a heater that has an end portion into which a cigarette is inserted and heats the cigarette by operating by means of an electrical signal; a support portion supporting the heater to be movable within a pre-determined range in a longitudinal direction of the cigarette; and a rotating member rotatably coupled to the support portion, and rotating and transmitting a driving force to the heater to move the heater in the longitudinal direction of the cigarette.

Abstract: Provided is a smoking member supporting device which is placed in an arrangement region with or without a smoking member mounted thereon, the smoking member supporting device including a base unit including an arrangement surface corresponding to the arrangement region; an accommodating unit formed adjacent to the base unit and configured to accommodate at least one region of the smoking member; a hook unit formed at an edge of the accommodating unit to define the accommodating unit and to maintain a state that the smoking member is accommodated in the accommodating unit and mounted; and a connecting unit formed to face the smoking member when the smoking member is accommodated in the accommodating unit and to supply electrical energy to the smoking member.

Abstract: An aerosol generating device includes: a hollow casing comprising a path for accommodating a cigarette, an opening open to the outside at one end of the path such that the cigarette is inserted into the opening from the outside, a through hole connected to the other end of the path, and a protrusion protruding from the path to contact a portion of an outer surface of the cigarette; and a heater having one side end portion passing through the through hole and arranged inside the path to be inserted into the cigarette accommodated in the path, the heater being configured to heat the cigarette when electricity is applied.

Abstract: An aerosol generating device provided with a rotary heater includes a casing having a hollow shape and including a path in which a cigarette is accommodated; a rotating member rotatably coupled to the casing; and a heater which has an end portion located inside the path to be inserted into the cigarette accommodated in the path, is connected to the rotating member to rotate along with the rotating member, and heats the cigarette when electricity is applied to the heater.

Abstract: Provided is a smoking member cleaning device formed to clean a smoking member, the smoking member cleaning device including a main body unit; an accommodating unit formed in one region of the main body unit to accommodate one region of the smoking member when the smoking member is being cleaned; a cleaning unit formed in the accommodating unit and configured to clean the smoking member; a cleaning driving unit connected to the cleaning unit and configured to clean the smoking member by moving the cleaning unit; and a power supply unit configured to supply driving energy to the cleaning driving unit.

Abstract: Provided is a fine particle generating apparatus outputting usage information, and in particular, a fine particle generating apparatus that generates fine particles through electrical heating and outputs usage information thereof to a user. Also, provided is a fine particle generating apparatus that generates fine particles by determining whether a puff has occurred according to a temperature variation amount per unit time. Also, provided is a fine particle generating apparatus or an aerosol generating apparatus capable of changing puff conditions by controlling a heater. Also, provided is a fine particle generating apparatus that generates fine particles through electrical heating.
