Abstract: A capsule for an electronic cigarette having a first end configured to engage with an electronic cigarette device; a second end having a vapor outlet; a liquid store configured to contain a liquid to be vaporized; a vaporizer housing arranged to house at least a part of a heating element and a part of a fluid transfer element arranged to deliver liquid from the liquid store to the heating element, the heating element being configured to vaporize the received liquid and generate a vapor; a seal arranged to hold the vaporizer housing; a holder arranged to attach to the seal; a main gas flow channel extending between the vaporizer housing and the vapor outlet; and a pair of electrodes at least partially embedded within the structure of the holder and arranged to provide an electrical connection between the first end of the capsule and an electronic cigarette device.

Abstract: This non-combusting flavor inhaler is provided with a control unit which, as an instruction to a battery, outputs to the battery a prescribed instruction instructing the battery that the amount of aerosol vaporized by a vaporizer unit should fall within a desired range. The control unit stops power supply from the battery to the vaporizer unit once a prescribed period has elapsed since the start of supplying power to the vaporizer unit. The prescribed period is shorter than the upper limit value of a standard puff period, which is derived from a statistic of the user's puff period.

Abstract: A non-burning type flavor inhaler comprises: a first unit; a second unit including an aerosol source or a flavor source; and a control unit. The control unit integrates a first cumulative amount of electric power which is a cumulative value of the amount of electric power supplied to the heat source in the one-time puff action series, and the control unit notifies an end of the one-time puff action series when the first cumulative amount of electric power reaches the required amount of electric power.

Abstract: A cartridge for a non-burning type flavor inhaler including a flow path forming body having a shape extending along a predetermined direction to form an aerosol flow path, an outer frame having a shape extending along the predetermined direction to accommodate the flow path forming body, a reservoir that is configured to retain an aerosol source, is positioned on the periphery of the flow path forming body in a cross section orthogonal to the predetermined direction and is positioned in a gap between the flow path forming body and the outer frame and an end cap that closes the gap from the downstream side, wherein an outer edge of the end cap contacts an inner wall surface of the outer frame in the cross section orthogonal to the predetermined direction and wherein an inner edge of the end cap is positioned between the outer edge of the flow path forming body and the inner edge of the flow path forming body in the cross section orthogonal to the predetermined direction.

Abstract: This cartridge is provided with a flavor source housing which houses a flavor source, and a mesh body which is arranged on at least one end of the flavor source housing. The mesh body has multiple openings. Each of the openings has a polygonal shape with interior angles of less than or equal to 180°. As lengths that pass through the center of gravity of each opening, each opening has a minimum length that is shortest and a maximum length that is longest. The minimum length is less than the smallest size of the raw material pieces, and the maximum length is greater than the minimum length.

Abstract: This non-combusting flavor inhaler is provided with: a power source unit which comprises at least a battery; a first cartridge which comprises at least a vaporizer unit which, with power provided from an aerosol source and the battery, vaporizes an aerosol source without combustion; a second cartridge which has at least a flavor source and which imparts flavor to the aerosol vaporized by the vaporizer unit by said aerosol passing through said second cartridge; and a control unit which, upon detecting that it is time for the second cartridge to be replaced, controls a notification unit to notify that it is time for the second cartridge to be replaced.

Abstract: A non-burning type flavor inhaler includes a control unit that controls power supplied from a power source to an atomizer. The control unit controls, in one puff action in a standard mode, controls the power source to supply standard power amount to the atomizer in a duration before a first duration elapses. The control unit, in one puff action in the reduced mode, controls the power source to supply first power amount greater than the standard power amount to the atomizer in a duration before a second duration elapses, and controls the power source to supply second power amount smaller than the first power amount to the atomizer in a duration after the second duration elapses and before a third duration elapses.
