    摘要: An inhaler system includes a housing defining a housing cavity, a sleeve extending along a sleeve longitudinal axis and positioned within the housing cavity, a capsule is contained within the sleeve, and a piercing element comprising only a single shaft extending from a fixed end to a tip along a piercing element longitudinal axis. The piercing element longitudinal axis being parallel with the sleeve longitudinal axis. The piercing element having a piercing element diameter in a range from 0.5 to 0.9 mm. The single piercing element tip having only a single cutting plane and defining a cutting plane angle between the longitudinal axis of the piercing element and the single cutting plane. The cutting plane angle being in a range from about 25 degrees and about 35 degrees.

    摘要: An aerosol-generating system includes an aerosol-generating article (100) comprising an article housing (110) and an aerosol-forming substrate (300) disposed in the article housing. The system further includes an aerosol-generating device (200) comprising a device housing (210) that defines a receptacle (220) configured to receive the aerosol-generating article. The device further includes control electronics (250) disposed in the device housing and includes a sensor (260) operably coupled to the control electronics and configured to detect a state of the device or the article when the article is received in the receptacle. In addition, the system includes a shape-changing element (270) disposed on or in at least one of the article housing and the device housing. The shape-changing element changes shape in response to the state of the device or the article detected by the sensor to cause a sufficient change in shape of an exterior surface of the device or the article to provide tactile feedback to a user.
