Publication number: 20210289834Abstract: A shisha device for use with a cartridge containing an aerosol-generating substrate includes a vessel, a receptacle, and an electrical heating element. The cartridge comprises a housing surrounding the aerosol-generating substrate. The vessel defines an interior configured to contain liquid and defines an outlet in communication with the interior of the vessel. The receptacle is configured to receive the cartridge. The heating element is configured to heat the aerosol-generating substrate in the cartridge to generate an aerosol when the cartridge is received by the receptacle. Preferably, the heating element is configured to heat the tobacco substrate to an extent sufficient to generate the aerosol without combusting the aerosol-generating substrate.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 7, 2021Publication date: September 23, 2021Applicant: PHILIP MORRIS PRODUCTS S.A.Inventors: Cedric Meyer, Samuel Bonnely, Angelos Kolyris, Stuart Michael Ruan Jones, John Antony Stephenson, Yaan Thomas Kinally, Michael Paton, David Cross

Patent number: 9578897Abstract: A combustible heat source (4) for a smoking article (2) comprises carbon and at least one ignition aid, wherein the ignition aid is present in an amount of at least 20 percent by dry weight of the combustible heat source. The combustible heat source (4) has a first portion and an opposed second portion. At least part (4b) of the combustible heat source (4) between the first portion and the second portion is wrapped in a combustion resistant wrapper (22) that is one or both of heat conducting and substantially oxygen impermeable. Upon ignition of the first portion of the combustible heat source (4), the second portion of the combustible heat source increases in temperature to a first temperature. During subsequent combustion of the combustible heat source (4), the second portion of the combustible heat source (4) maintains a second temperature lower than the first temperature.Type: GrantFiled: June 1, 2012Date of Patent: February 28, 2017Assignee: Philip Morris Products S.A.Inventors: Thomas Gladden, Laurent Poget, Evan Jochnowitz, Stephane Roudier, Alexandre Malgat, Samuel Bonnely
