Abstract: The present disclosure is directed to an aerosol delivery device for use with a removable and replaceable cartridge and including actuatable ignitor contacts. The device includes a holder defining a receiving chamber configured to receive the cartridge, the cartridge comprising an ignitable heat source and a substrate portion comprising an aerosol precursor composition. The device further includes a first aerosol passageway, a mouthpiece defining a second aerosol passageway, and a power source disposed therein. The actuatable ignitor contacts are configured to engage with the ignitable heat source when the removable cartridge is secured within the receiving chamber and are movable between a first position spaced apart from the ignitable heat source and a second position contacting the ignitable heat source. The device may also include a dual-purpose actuator assembly coupled to the holder and configured to ignite the ignitable heat source and eject the removable cartridge.

Abstract: Disclosed is an aerosol delivery device for use with removable and replaceable cartridges. The device includes a holder defining a proximal end and a distal end and a receiving chamber configured to receive the removable cartridge including an ignitable heat source. The holder defines a first aerosol passageway extending therethrough. The device includes a mouthpiece coupled to the holder and defining a second aerosol passageway extending therethrough and a pair of static ignitor contacts disposed proximate the receiving chamber and oriented to contact the ignitable heat source when the removable cartridge is secured within the receiving chamber. The device may include an access door movably coupled to the holder and configured to provide access to the receiving chamber in an open configuration and secure the cartridge for ignition when in a closed configuration.

Abstract: Disclosed is an aerosol delivery device for use with removable and replaceable cartridges that may be loaded into and ejected from the devices in different orientations and via different access points. The device includes a holder defining a proximal end and a distal end and a receiving chamber configured to receive the removable cartridge. The holder defines a first aerosol passageway extending therethrough. The device may include a mouthpiece coupled to the holder and defining a second aerosol passageway extending therethrough. The device may further include an access point (e.g., a door) movably coupled to the holder. In an open configuration, the access point provides access to the receiving chamber for loading the removable cartridge therein and, in a closed configuration, fluidly couples the receiving chamber with the first aerosol passageway.

Abstract: Disclosed are aerosol delivery devices for use with a removable and replaceable cartridge, where the device includes an improved mouthpiece, such as one that is removable or customizable. The device includes a holder defining a receiving chamber configured to receive a removable cartridge comprising an ignitable heat source and a substrate portion that includes a substrate material having an aerosol precursor composition configured to form an aerosol upon application of heat thereto and a first aerosol passageway and a mouthpiece with a first end and a longitudinally opposed second end defining a second aerosol passageway, where the first end is configured to engage with a user's mouth and the second end is coupleable to the proximal end of the holder. The mouthpiece can be removed for cleaning and then reattached for continued use or, in some cases, a different mouthpiece may be attached to customize the user's experience.
