Abstract: An aerosol-generating device (100) comprises a first power source (120), an aerosolizer (110) configured to receive power from the first power source and configured to generate aerosol from an aerosol-generating substrate (170), a second power source (130), and a heating circuit (160) configured to receive power from the second power source to heat the first power source.

Abstract: An aerosol-generating device is provided, including: a battery, and a heater configured to heat the battery, in which one or both of the battery and the heater are movably mounted in the aerosol-generating device, such that the battery and the heater are relatively movable towards each other between a near position and a distanced position, the near position being different from the distanced position. An aerosol-generating system including an aerosol-generating article and the aerosol-generating device, and a method for heating a battery in the aerosol-generating device, are also provided.

Abstract: An electronic device is provided, including: a battery, and a heater configured to heat the battery as a first heating function of the heater, the heater being further configured to perform a second heating function, the first heating function being different from the second heating function, the electronic device being configured to switch between the first and the second heating functions of the heater in dependence on a temperature of the battery, the electronic device being an aerosol-generating device, and in which heating an aerosol-forming substrate is the second heating function. An aerosol-generating system including an aerosol-generating article and the electronic device, and a method for operating the electronic device, are also provided.

Abstract: A display is provided for an aerosol-generating device, the display including: a notification window; and a nano-photonic material extending over a front surface of the notification window, the nano-photonic material being configured to, in response to a light wave comprising at least one predetermined wavelength backlighting the notification window and being incident on the nano-photonic material, increase an amplitude of the at least one predetermined wavelength and emit therefrom a light wave comprising the at least one predetermined wavelength with the increased amplitude. An aerosol-generating device including the display is also provided.

Abstract: A device for locking any apparatus on any support, notably a device enabling simple locking of a camera on a support such as a tripod. The device includes two attachment fittings that engage two hooking parts attached to the apparatus, wherein the attachment fittings are locked in their engaged position when two push-buttons fitted in the top plate of the support are both depressed under the weight of the apparatus. The two attachment fittings, linked together and spring-loaded, slide simultaneously to engage the two hooking parts.
