Provided is an aerosol generating device including a cartridge comprising: an atomizer heating an aerosol generating material to generate aerosol; a mouthpiece through which the generated aerosol is released to outside; a main body accommodating the cartridge; and a sensor configured to detect release of the aerosol to the outside; wherein a first air channel is formed between the cartridge and the main body and guides external air introduced through an air inlet to the mouthpiece through the atomizer, and wherein a second air channel is formed in the main body such that the first air channel and the second air channel are in fluid communication, and wherein the sensor detects the release of the aerosol to the outside based on a change in air flow rate or air pressure of the second air channel.

Aerosol generating device

An aerosol generation device includes a first housing including an inner accommodating space and an opening exposing the inner accommodating space to an outside of the first housing; a second housing including an inner space and coupled to the first housing with a fastening portion; a battery inserted into the inner space of the second housing and having a part exposed to an outside of the second housing; a case into which the second housing is inserted, the case covering at least one of the first housing or the second housing; and a cap coupled to the first housing and covering the first housing, wherein the case covers the part of the battery exposed to the outside of the second housing.

Aerosol generation device having concealed fastening portion

An aerosol generating device includes a case, a cover having a metallic body and configured to be coupled to the case, a heater configured to heat an aerosol generating material, a magnetic force generator arranged in the case and configured to generate magnetic force acting on the metallic body according to a current applied thereto, and a controller configured to adjust coupling force between the cover and the case arising, which is generated by the magnetic force, by controlling the current applied to the magnetic force generator based on an operating state of the heater.

Aerosol generating device having a magnetic force generator for coupling a case with a cover

An aerosol generation device may include a first housing comprising an opening at one side, an inner space for accommodating a cigarette inserted through the opening, and a heater disposed in the inner space; a second housing coupled to other side of the first housing and including a controller; a fastening portion configured to couple the first housing to the second housing; a battery coupled to the second housing; and a case coupled to the second housing for accommodating the second housing, the fastening portion, and the battery therein, wherein the fastening portion is prevented, by the case, from being exposed to outside.
