Abstract: A cartridge for use with an aerosol-generating system has a housing defining a liquid containing volume. The housing includes a sidewall extending from a mouthpiece end to a power supply end. The housing includes a transparent region forming at least a portion of the sidewall. The housing includes a light source fixed to the sidewall. The light source is configured to transmit light into the liquid containing volume. The light source may be fixed to an inner surface of the sidewall, fixed to an outer surface of the sidewall, or form a portion or the sidewall.

Abstract: An aerosol-generating device may comprise a housing defining at least one internal compartment. The housing may be waterproof. The aerosol-generating device may further comprise a power supply, an electric heater, and/or a haptic feedback device. Each of the power supply, electric heater, and/or haptic feedback device may be positioned within one or more of the at least one internal compartment.

Abstract: An aerosol-generating device is provided, including: a housing defining a mouthpiece end, a distal end, a sidewall between the mouthpiece end and the distal end, and a chamber within the housing, the chamber being configured to receive a liquid container, the housing including retention means configured to retain the liquid container within the housing, the retention means including a magnetic retention mechanism; and a power source disposed within the housing, the sidewall of the housing defining an insertion window through which the liquid container is positionable inside the chamber. An aerosol-generating system and a liquid container are also provided.

Abstract: There is provided a cartridge for an aerosol-generating system, the cartridge including: a liquid storage container containing a liquid aerosol-forming substrate including at least one flavor object; an outlet; a filter disposed between the outlet and a portion of the liquid storage container including the at least one flavor object; and a liquid transport element, having a first part and a second part, movable from a first position to a second position, wherein in the first position the first part of the liquid transport element is external to the cartridge and adjacent the outlet, and in the second position the first part of the liquid transport element is internal to the cartridge and remote from the outlet.

Abstract: There is provided a cartridge for an aerosol-generating system, the cartridge including a liquid storage container containing: a first liquid composition and a second composition; a plurality of capsules, each capsule encapsulating the second composition to separate the second composition from the first liquid composition, each capsule including a frangible shell encapsulating the second composition; a capsule retainer; and an outlet in the liquid storage container configured to deliver liquid from the liquid storage container, the capsule retainer substantially preventing any frangible shells, or parts thereof, from exiting the cartridge through the outlet. An aerosol-generating device configured to receive the cartridge to form an aerosol-generating system is also provided.
