Abstract:
There is provided a non-combustible vaping element comprising a pre-vapor formulation tank (22) configured to contain a pre-vapor formulation, the pre-vapor formulation tank (22) defining a channel (28) there through. The non-combustible vaping element also comprises a heating element (34) coupled to the pre-vapor formulation tank (22) and configured to heat at least a portion of the pre-vapor formulation into a vapor and provide the vapor to a first portion of the channel (28), and a tobacco element (80) at a second portion of the channel (28) and positioned to receive the vapor.
Abstract:
A method of extracting volatiles from tobacco material and a method of making a pre-vapor formulation including the volatiles includes heating (100) tobacco material to release volatiles, collecting (200) the extracted volatiles, and combining (300) the volatiles with a pre-vapor formulation.
Abstract:
There is provided a non-combustible smoking element (60) including a pre-vapor formulation reservoir element (22) configured to contain a pre-vapor formulation material, a heating element (14) coupled to the pre-vapor formulation reservoir element (22) and configured to heat at least a portion of the pre-vapor formulation material into a vapor and provide the vapor to a first channel (9) and a tobacco containing element (74) defining at least a portion of the first channel (9), the tobacco containing element (74) overlapping at least a portion of the heating element (14).
