Abstract: An inductively heatable consumable for aerosol generation includes an aerosol forming substrate in the form of particles and a susceptor in the form of a plurality of particles, wherein the susceptor is a combination of an aerosol forming substrate and a susceptor for obtaining a rigid susceptor, wherein the rigid aerosol forming substrate layer has a rigidity greater than the rigidity of the susceptor layer.

Abstract: A container for smoking articles has an outer housing including a hinged lid rotatable between open and closed positions. An inner package has an access opening through which smoking articles can be removed. The access opening can be covered by a reclosable flap when the hinged lid is in the closed position. With the lid in the closed position, the reclosable flap forms an overlap region with a surface of the inner package that extends around the periphery of the access opening. The overlap region includes a first adhering region to releasably affix the surface of the inner package and the reclosable flap, and a first non-adhering region. The first non-adhering region includes a portion of the periphery of the access opening.

Abstract: An electronic cigarette includes a housing with an aperture leading to a receiving chamber within the housing wherein the receiving chamber is configured to receive and accommodate a capsule; a piercing member configured to pierce the capsule within the receiving chamber; and a slidable cover configured to be moved between an open position in which a capsule can be introduced through the aperture and a closed position in which the slidable cover covers the aperture; wherein the piercing member and the slidable cover are coupled and configured to be moved in unison.

Abstract: A consumable cartridge for an aerosol generation device contains an aerosol forming material such as tobacco that can release vapour upon receiving heat from a heater. The cartridge includes a casing with a tab that moves between an open position and a closed position, where the open position extends from the casing to allow rapid cooling of the tab so that the user can easily grip the tab and extract the cartridge from the aerosol generation device.
