An aerosol provision device for generating aerosol from a plurality of aerosol generating areas each configured to receive an aerosol precursor material can include a power source for providing power to a first atomizing element configured to generate aerosol from a first aerosol precursor material present in a first aerosol generating area and to a second atomizing element configured to generate aerosol from a second aerosol precursor material present in a second aerosol generating area; and power distribution circuitry configured to distribute power between the first atomizing element and the second atomizing element based on at least one parameter of the aerosol precursor material currently present in the first aerosol generating areas and the second aerosol generating area, respectively, wherein the at least one parameter is at least one of a presence of a first aerosol generating component including the first aerosol precursor material in the first aerosol generating area or a presence of a second aerosol generating component including the second aerosol precursor material in the second aerosol generating area.

Electronic aerosol provision system

An aerosol provision device for generating aerosol for user inhalation can include a first aerosol generating area and a second aerosol generating area each for receiving an aerosol precursor material; a mouthpiece from which a user inhales generated aerosol during use, wherein the mouthpiece comprises first and second mouthpiece openings; a first pathway extending from the first aerosol generating area to the first mouthpiece opening for transporting a first aerosol generated from the aerosol precursor material in the first aerosol generating area; and a second pathway extending from the second aerosol generating area chamber to the second mouthpiece opening for transporting a second aerosol generated from the aerosol precursor material in the second aerosol generating area, wherein the first and second pathways are physically isolated from one another to prevent mixing of the first and second aerosols as the first and second aerosols are transported along the respective pathways.

An aerosol delivery device including a power supply; a vaporizer arranged to selectively receive power from the power supply to generate an aerosol from an aerosol precursor material for user inhalation; and a first electrical interface arranged to provide an electrical connection between the aerosol delivery device and a second aerosol delivery device so as to at least one of: supply power to or receive power from the second aerosol delivery device, or supply control signals to or receive control signals from the second aerosol delivery device.

Aerosol delivery system

There is described a chain of pouches including a plurality of pouches each pouch containing aerosolizable material. Each pouch in the chain is connected to at least one other pouch in the chain by a respective weakened region. The chain is arranged to be foldable and breakable at each respective weakened region. Each pouch is porous to enable aerosol to flow through or out of the pouch.

Pouches containing an aerosolizable material, a container and aerosol generating device for use therewith

Described is an aerosol provision device for generating aerosol to be inhaled by a user from a plurality of discrete aerosol generating areas each containing an aerosol generating component, the aerosol provision device including a mouthpiece from which a user inhales generated aerosol during use; a first flow pathway arranged to pass through a first aerosol generating area and fluidly connected to the mouthpiece; and a second flow pathway arranged to pass through a second aerosol generating area and fluidly connected to the mouthpiece, wherein the first and second flow pathways are each provided with a flow restriction member configured to vary the flow of air through the respective flow pathways based on the presence of an aerosol generating component in the respective aerosol generating areas in the device and/or a parameter associated with the respective aerosol generating component in the device.

Described is an aerosol provision device for generating aerosol from a plurality of aerosol generating areas each configured to receive an aerosol precursor material, wherein the aerosol provision device includes a power source for providing power to a first atomizing element configured to generate aerosol from a first aerosol precursor material present in the first aerosol generating area and to a second atomizing element configured to generate aerosol from a second aerosol precursor material present in a second aerosol generating area; and power distribution circuitry configured to distribute power between the first and second atomizing elements based on at least one parameter of aerosol precursor material currently present in the first and second aerosol generating areas respectively.

An aerosol delivery system including a first engagement mechanism, a first power supply, and a first vaporizer, wherein the first vaporizer is arranged to selectively receive power from the first power supply to generate a first aerosol from a first aerosol precursor material for user inhalation; and a second aerosol delivery device including a second engagement mechanism, a second power supply, and a second vaporizer, wherein the second vaporizer is arranged to selectively receive power from the second power supply to generate a second aerosol from a second aerosol precursor material for user inhalation; wherein the first engagement mechanism of the first aerosol delivery device and the second engagement mechanism of the second aerosol delivery device are arranged to releasably co-engage with one another to selectively couple the first aerosol delivery device to the second aerosol delivery device so the first aerosol delivery device and the second aerosol delivery device may be used together to deliver the first and second aerosols to a single user when they are coupled together and may be used independently to deliver the first and second aerosols to different users when they are not coupled together.

An aerosol provision system includes one or more receptacles each forming a respective central space, a base adapted to support the or each receptacle, the or each receptacle being removable from the base and at least a first airflow generator, operable to draw air through at least a first aerosol generator, wherein the base includes one or more outlets through which, in operation, aerosolized payload is directed to flow from the base into the central space of a respective receptacle and the or each receptacle comprises a first opening through which the user can inhale the aerosolized payload.
