An aerosol provision device comprises a haptic component configured to provide haptic feedback, a battery configured to power the haptic component, and an electrically insulating resilient member in contact with the haptic component and positioned between the battery and the haptic component.

Aerosol provision device

An aerosol provision device includes a battery support including a main portion defining a longitudinal axis, a first end portion at a first end of the main portion along the longitudinal axis and a second end portion at a second end of the main portion along the longitudinal axis. The first and second end portions extend away from a first side of the main portion in a first direction substantially perpendicular to the longitudinal axis. The device further includes a battery supported between the first and second end portions and a heater assembly, comprising an inductor coil. The device further includes a printed circuit board (PCB) engaged with a second side of the main portion and positioned between the main portion and the heater assembly, wherein ends of the inductor coil are connected to the PCB.

An aerosol-generating device for generating aerosol from an aerosol-generating material including a housing and a heating assembly arranged in the housing for receiving aerosol-generating material, the heating assembly configured to heat aerosol-generating material received in the heating assembly, wherein at least a portion of the housing has a soft touch coating.

Aerosol-generating device

An aerosol provision device comprises a heater assembly configured to heat aerosol generating material, an indicator assembly, an input interface configured to receive an input for selecting a heating mode from a plurality of heating modes comprising a first mode and a second mode and a controller. The controller is configured to detect the input for selecting the heating mode and, responsive to detecting the input: (i) determine a selected heating mode based on the input, (ii) cause the heater assembly to begin heating the aerosol generating material according to the selected heating mode, and (iii) cause the indicator assembly to indicate that the device is ready for use within a predetermined period of time after causing the heater assembly to begin heating the aerosol generating material.

A support for a heater component of an aerosol provision device defines an axis and is configured to engage an end of the heater component to hold the heater component substantially parallel to the axis at a predetermined distance from a coil. The support defines a channel to receive a wire of a temperature sensor, and the channel defines an opening into a space between the heater component and the coil. An aerosol provision device is also described which comprises: a heater component configured to heat aerosol generating material; a first support, wherein the first support defines an axis and is configured to engage a first end of the heater component; a second support, wherein the second support is configured to engage a second end of the heater component; and at least one coil configured to heat the heater component. The first and second supports hold the heater component substantially parallel to the axis at a predetermined distance from the at least one coil.

An aerosol provision device is provided. The device has an axis and comprises, at a first end, an end member at least partially surrounded by an outer cover. The end member and the outer cover together define an end surface of the aerosol provision device, wherein the end member defines a recess which is positioned away from the end surface in the direction of the axis and is covered by the outer cover.

An aerosol provision device includes a spring, wherein a first end of the spring is connected to the lid at a first pivot point and the first end is rotatable about the first pivot point as the lid moves between the open and closed positions. A second end of the spring is connected to the housing at a second pivot point and the second end is rotatable about the second pivot point as the lid moves between the open and closed positions. The spring is configured such that the spring biases the lid towards the open position when the lid is between the open position and the intermediate position, and the spring biases the lid towards the closed position when the lid is between the intermediate position and the closed position.

An aerosol provision device is provided. The device comprises a heater assembly configured to heat aerosol generating material, an input interface configured to receive an input for selecting an operating mode from a plurality of operating modes and a controller. The controller is configured to detect operation of the input interface and cause the heater assembly to begin heating the aerosol generating material in dependence on the detected operation of the input interface.

Disclosed herein is an aerosol-generating device () for generating aerosol from an aerosol-generating material. The aerosol-generating device comprises: a housing (); and a heating assembly arranged in the housing for receiving aerosol-generating material. The heating assembly is configured to heat aerosol-generating material received in the heating assembly. The housing has a characteristic extent () in a first direction () of not more than 85 mm, a characteristic extent () in a second direction () perpendicular to the first direction of not more than 45 mm, and a characteristic extent () in a third direction () perpendicular to the first and second directions of not more than 23 mm.

Aerosol provision devices having printed circuit boards are described. One such aerosol provision device defines a longitudinal axis and comprises an electrical connector, a heater assembly configured to heat aerosol generating material received within the device and a printed circuit board (PCB). The PCB comprises a first portion arranged substantially parallel to the longitudinal axis and a second portion arranged substantially perpendicular to the longitudinal axis. The heater assembly is electrically coupled to the first portion. The second portion is electrically coupled to the first portion and the electrical connector is electrically coupled to the second portion. Another such aerosol provision device comprises a first coil for heating a heater component and a PCB arranged adjacent to the first coil. The PCB comprises: a first through hole connected to a first end of the first coil; and a second through hole connected to a second end of the first coil.

An aerosol generating device includes an induction heating circuit for inductively heating a susceptor arrangement to heat an aerosol generating material to thereby generate an aerosol. The device is configured such that during operation a level of electromagnetic radiation emitted by the device is: less than 40 dBμV/m over a frequency range of 30 MHz to 225 MHz and/or less than 47 dBμV/m over a frequency range of 235 MHz to 1 GHz, and/or less than 70 dBμV/m over a frequency range of 1 GHz to 3 GHz, and/or less than 74 dBμV/m over a frequency range of 3 GHz to 6 GHz.
