Description

A Method for Improving Cigarette Smoking Quality

technical field

The invention relates to the technical field of traditional cigarettes, in particular to a method for improving the smoking quality of cigarettes.

Background technique

In order to reduce the harm of smoking to the health of smokers and the public, cigarette harm reduction technology has become the main means to reduce the inhalation of harmful substances in cigarette smoke. Traditional cigarette harm reduction technologies mainly include changing the combustion state of cigarettes and using special filters to reduce harmful components in mainstream smoke. The former includes the use of high-permeability cigarette paper or the blending of tobacco sheets, expanded tobacco and cut stems in shredded tobacco, wherein the high-permeability cigarette paper can dilute the smoke in the cigarette branch and increase the burning speed; Shredded stems can improve the filling property of shredded tobacco and accelerate the burning speed of cigarettes, but at the same time it also reduces the number of puffs, which will lead to an increase in the absolute number of cigarettes smoked. The latter mostly uses filter interception technology and filter ventilation dilution technology. The filter interception technology is to add adsorbents such as activated carbon and zeolite to the filter or to make binary or multi-component composite filters and special-shaped filters with different structures. Selective interception of harmful components in mainstream smoke, but there are problems such as the filter material intercepts some aroma components, affects the taste of cigarettes, and the production process is complicated; the filter ventilation dilution technology is to punch holes in tipping paper and use high air permeability to form paper or make grooves on the filter rod, so that when the cigarette is smoked, the air enters the filter to dilute the mainstream smoke, so as to achieve the purpose of harm reduction, but due to the dilution of the smoke, compensation measures need to be added To maintain the smoking quality of cigarettes.

The sensory comfort of cigarettes has a lot to do with the moisture content of the smoke. Studies have found that when the moisture content of the smoke is appropriate, the smoke is soft and delicate, with less irritation and better sensory comfort. When the moisture content of the smoke is low, the smoke will be dry and irritating. Increased sex, decreased sensory comfort. Nicotine in cigarette smoke includes two forms of bound nicotine and free nicotine. The irritation of smoke is mainly determined by the content of free nicotine. The relative content of the two forms of nicotine is related to the environment (such as humidity, pH) of the smoke. Free nicotine can combine with hydrogen ions in the smoke to form a salt (bound nicotine). When the moisture content (humidity) of the smoke is low, the concentration of hydrogen ions decreases, which will inhibit the formation of bound nicotine and also reduce the The water solubility of bound nicotine makes it easier to decompose to produce free nicotine, which increases the relative content of free nicotine and the corresponding increase in free nicotine/total nicotine, resulting in increased irritation and dryness. However, if the humidity of the smoke is too high, the content of free nicotine will be too low, and the physiological strength required by the smoker will not be reached. Therefore, changes in the moisture content (humidity) of smoke will significantly affect the morphological distribution of nicotine, resulting in significant changes in free nicotine and free nicotine/nicotine ratio. Under low humidity conditions, the content of free nicotine and the ratio of free nicotine to nicotine both increase, which makes cigarette products more likely to produce irritation when smoked in a dry environment than in a humid environment. In order to make the product have a higher ratio of free nicotine to nicotine to meet the physiological strength required by the smoker, and ensure its stability in different humidity environments, so as to improve the irritation of the product in a dry environment To solve the problem, glycerin can be added to shredded tobacco to increase the moisture content of cigarette smoke and improve the sensory comfort of cigarettes. However, studies have shown that humectants such as glycerin in shredded tobacco will undergo thermal cracking at the burning temperature (900°C) of cigarettes to generate harmful aldehydes (especially acrolein).

When smoking medium and low tar cigarettes, although the tar content is reduced, it also brings problems such as reduced physiological satisfaction, reduced aroma, and poor comfort. At present, flavoring is mainly used to make up for the problem of dilution and lightening of smoke caused by reducing the amount of tar in cigarettes, to improve the taste of cigarettes, to enrich the amount of aroma, and to maintain good sensory quality. The traditional supplementary method of flavoring and adding materials includes adding cotton thread soaked in liquid essence or adding microencapsulated flavor to the filter during the forming process of filter cellulose acetate, so that the flavor is released during smoking to improve the smoking taste of cigarettes. During the smoking process, with the continuous release of flavors and fragrances, the mixture of smoke and aroma components in each puff has inconsistency, which makes the taste of each cigarette have a large difference. In addition, the microcapsules containing spices need to be squeezed to release the aroma components, which brings inconvenience to suction.

The purpose of the present invention is to increase the number of cigarette puffs by mixing mainstream smoke of cigarettes with dilution air and atomized steam, and improve Smoking sensory quality, reducing the harm of smoking to the human body and the surrounding environment, changing the traditional flavor and fragrance compensation technology to improve the consistency of smoking each cigarette and expand the use function of cigarettes. The purpose of the present invention is achieved through the following technical solutions:

The invention relates to a method for improving the smoking quality of cigarettes, which comprises mixing mainstream smoke produced by lit cigarettes with dilution air and atomized steam for smoking. The mainstream smoke refers to the smoke drawn from the suction end of a cigarette during smoking, that is, the part of the generated smoke that can be sucked.

In a preferred embodiment, the atomized steam contains one or more of aroma substances, traditional Chinese medicine extracts or moisturizers. Preferably, the humectant is glycerin.

In a preferred embodiment, the atomizer 8 includes an electric heating wire, a liquid storage chamber storing atomized liquid, and a liquid guiding device for guiding the atomized liquid to the electric heating wire, and the electric heating wire Evaporating the atomized liquid within a temperature range of 150° C. to 350° C. to obtain the atomized steam.

In a preferred embodiment, the electric heating wire is located in the central airflow channel; independently, the liquid guiding device is a liquid guiding rope or a catheter.

Wherein, the atomized liquid is a liquid that contains volatile substances and can be atomized when heated. The atomized liquid is vaporized and atomized to form an aerosol, which is inhaled by the smoker after being mixed with mainstream smoke and dilution air of the cigarette. When the mainstream smoke of cigarettes passes through the humid environment containing the volatile substances, the volatile substances are conducive to the migration of nicotine to the smoke, releasing the free (non-protonated) nicotine produced by the evaporation of smoke particles, and making the The free nicotine migrates in the form of vapor, which is beneficial to increase the content of free nicotine in the smoke, thereby increasing the intensity of the smoker's physiological experience. The different components of the atomized liquid can also have different effects on the mainstream smoke of cigarettes, including reducing the harm of mainstream smoke of cigarettes, improving the sensory quality of cigarette smoking, supplementing the aroma components of mainstream smoke of cigarettes or assisting pharmacology . Preferably, the atomized liquid is hygroscopic glycerin or a mixed liquid containing volatile substances mainly composed of glycerin.

In a preferred embodiment, the atomized vapor also contains nicotine.

Wherein, the airflow sensor switch air intake hole 2 that runs through the housing 7 or the end cover of the cigarette holder needs to ensure that the airflow can quickly trigger the airflow sensor switch 3; when in use, insert the cigarette into the cigarette holder In the cigarette holding cavity of the cigarette holder, when the cigarette is lit and smoked, the mainstream smoke generated by the burning of the cigarette is sucked into the central airflow channel of the atomizer. At the same time, because the smoker’s puffing action will form a negative pressure inside the electronic atomization component, so that the ambient air enters the electronic atomization component from the airflow sensor switch air inlet 2 and triggers the airflow sensor switch 3, and then the Ambient air also enters the central airflow channel of the nebulizer to mix with the mainstream smoke, or mixes with the mainstream smoke before entering the central airflow channel of the nebulizer. The ambient air acts as dilution air to dilute the mainstream smoke and Cool down the mainstream smoke. At the same time, because the airflow sensor switch 3 is triggered, the power supply 5 and the atomizer 8 are connected through the terminal, and the material in the atomizer is heated to generate atomized steam, and the formed atomized steam also enters the central airflow channel of the atomizer , mixed with mainstream smoke and dilution air, for smokers to inhale. The mainstream smoke refers to the smoke drawn from the suction end of a cigarette during smoking, that is, the part of the generated smoke that can be sucked. Wherein the terminal connects the power supply 5 and the atomizer 8 or connects the power supply 5 and an external charging device. The power supply 5 is a disposable battery or a rechargeable battery. Preferably, the rechargeable battery is a lithium polymer battery. Wherein, the atomizer may be any existing atomizer in the prior art.

In a preferred embodiment, the housing 7 is divided into two cavities, the first cavity accommodates the atomizer 8 , and the second cavity accommodates the power supply 5 and the air flow sensor switch 3 . These two cavities can be relatively airtight, but they can have necessary air inlet holes. Alternatively, the two cavities can both have open ends, and the relative airtightness can be realized by cooperation with the cigarette holding cavity and the end cover of the cigarette holder.

In a preferred embodiment, the cigarette smoking device with electronic atomization function also includes a status indicator light transmission hole 6 on the housing 7 and a status indicator light (not shown) in the housing 7 show). Preferably, the cigarette smoking device further includes a light guide seat 9 located on the light transmission hole 6 of the status indicator light. The light guide seat 9 is actually a cover for the light transmission hole 6 of the indicator light. The light of the status indicator light is emitted through the light transmission hole 6 and the light guide seat 9. The light guide seat 9 can prevent dust from falling into the inside of the housing 7 from the light transmission hole 6 of the status indicator light. When the power supply is working, the light of the status indicator light connected to the power supply 5 can pass through the light guide seat 9 and the status indicator light transmission hole 6, indicating the working status of the cigarette smoking device.

Wherein, the cigarette holder 1 can be any holder that can be connected with the electronic atomization assembly of the present invention and can hold traditional cigarettes. The cigarette holder 1 and the electronic atomization assembly are fixedly connected or detachably connected. The cigarette holder may optionally have an end cap, which can be used to close an open end of the housing 7 of the electronic atomization assembly. At this time, it is equivalent to that the end cover and the housing 7 jointly enclose a relatively airtight space. The cigarette holder may also have no end cap.

In a preferred embodiment, the cigarette clamping chamber of the cigarette holder 1 has a variable-diameter clamping device to be able to clamp cigarettes of different diameters, wherein the variable-diameter clamping device is selected from the cigarette clamping cavity Multiple stacked washers with successively smaller opening diameters, or collets, or multi-jaw chuck holders. A traditional way to adjust the clamping diameter of the cigarette holder is to set various gaskets with different inner diameters in the holder, and the gaskets are stacked in order from large to small, so as to be able to clamp cigarettes with different diameters. As shown in Figure 5. Another traditional way to adjust the clamping diameter of the clamp is to use a collet, as shown in Figure 6, which is a plurality of conically arranged and common-end elastic collets arranged in a sleeve 201 with a threaded joint. In the clip 202, after the clamped object 203 is inserted, the elastic clip is pressed and deformed, and the clamping diameter is adjusted by the elastic action of the elastic clip itself. Another industrially common clamper with adjustable clamping diameter is a multi-jaw chuck-type clamper, the most common of which is a three-jaw chuck-type clamper, as shown in Figure 7, which is a known The technology, specific structure and operating principle can be briefly described as follows: It has a clamper mounting screw 102 with threads on it for mounting on other equipment.

The beneficial effect that the present invention obtains:

Compared with conventional cigarette smoking methods, the method for improving cigarette smoking quality of the present invention has the following advantages:

1. Compared with conventional cigarette smoking methods, smoking cigarettes through the method of improving cigarette smoking quality of the present invention further reduces the stimulation and pungency of cigarettes while diluting the mainstream smoke of cigarettes and reducing the main harmful components , improving the sensory quality of smoking, because the hygroscopicity of glycerin and other substances in the atomizer can increase the moisture content of mainstream smoke, thereby reducing the irritation of mainstream smoke and improving the delicateness and softness of smoke. The sensory comfort of the cigarette is improved; at the same time, the method of the invention also improves the existing flavoring technology and moisturizing method of the traditional cigarette.

2. When the mainstream smoke of the cigarette passes through the airflow channel containing the atomized steam in the atomizer, the atomized steam and the humid environment are conducive to the migration of nicotine to the smoke, releasing the free state (non- Protonation) nicotine and make it migrate in the form of vapor, which is beneficial to increase the content of free nicotine in the smoke, so as to meet the physiological intensity of the smoker.

3. In the method for improving the smoking quality of cigarettes of the present invention, glycerin is atomized at low temperature, which reduces the content of aldehydes (especially acrolein) produced by pyrolysis of glycerin; The absorption of water vapor increases the particle size, increases the retention of smoke particulate matter, makes more smoke particles remain in the mouth, reduces the mainstream smoke particulate matter retained in the lungs, and reduces the risk of smoking. damage to the lungs.

4. By atomizing atomized liquids with different functions, different smoking experiences can be brought to cigarettes. Compared with the existing method of adding functional components to filters, the suction device used in the present invention is more convenient; Moreover, by adding drug extracts to the atomized liquid, it can also serve the purpose of treatment, not only reducing the harm of smoking, but also serving the purpose of treatment.

5. In the suction device of the present invention, since the cigarette filter is airtightly inserted into the cigarette holder, the inhaled airflow mainly comes from the shell of the electronic atomization component or the end cover of the cigarette holder. The diluted air correspondingly reduces the amount of air entering the cigarette from the end of the cigarette, slows down the burning speed of the cigarette, reduces the inhalation of harmful substances in each puff of smoke, and increases the number of puffs.

Compared with electronic cigarettes containing nicotine in traditional e-liquid, the method for improving the smoking quality of cigarettes of the present invention has the following advantages:

1. Traditional e-cigarettes containing nicotine in e-liquid contain a certain concentration of nicotine in e-liquid with glycerin as the main component. When the e-liquid is atomized, nicotine is delivered together with the atomized e-liquid, while the present invention The best way to improve the smoking quality of cigarettes is that traditional cigarettes are first burned to release nicotine, and then the nicotine is mixed with the atomized liquid vapor in the atomizer and delivered together. Compared with the two, the nicotine delivered by the method of the present invention exists in the tobacco leaf itself, which is endogenous and released through the burning of cigarettes; while the nicotine delivered by the traditional electronic cigarette needs to be artificially added to the e-liquid, which is exogenous and is Released through the vaporization of e-liquid. The nicotine used in the latter mainly comes from tobacco leaf extract, the extraction process is complicated, the cost is high, and the heating temperature of traditional electronic cigarettes is lower than the burning temperature of cigarettes, so the nicotine release is not enough. However, the device of the present invention can ensure the release of nicotine. While reducing the amount of other harmful substances to health hazards.

2. When smoking traditional electronic cigarettes, the delivery efficiency of nicotine is lower than that of smoking traditional cigarettes. The nicotine delivered in the method for improving the smoking quality of cigarettes of the present invention actually comes from traditional cigarettes, therefore, the delivery efficiency of nicotine is higher than that of traditional electronic cigarettes.

3. Fragrance substances such as mint, vanilla and fruit flavor substances are often added to the e-liquid of traditional nicotine-containing electronic cigarettes. When nicotine is dissolved in e-liquid containing these flavoring substances, nicotine is easily oxidized by these flavoring substances, which affects product stability. And in the method for improving cigarette smoking quality of the present invention, the aroma substance in nicotine and atomized liquid just can mix with the form of aerosol only when sucking, because when each puff is sucked, their mixing time is short in addition The content is low, so there is no problem of nicotine deterioration in traditional nicotine-containing electronic cigarettes.

4. Compared with traditional nicotine-containing electronic cigarettes, the method for improving the smoking quality of cigarettes of the present invention significantly increases the nicotine content in the same volume of inhaled smoke, and the physiological satisfaction of nicotine is better and significantly reduces the traditional E-cigarettes (glycerin and propylene glycol are the main components of e-liquid solvent) have a sweet and greasy feeling.
