Abstract

An aerosol-generating device is provided, including: a housing including an end wall; a cavity configured to removably receive an aerosol-generating article; an aperture at least partially defined by the housing and extending through a first portion of the end wall, the aperture being disposed at an end of the cavity and configured for insertion of the article into the cavity through the aperture; and a cover configured for rotational movement with respect to the housing and being rotatable between a closed position entirely covering the aperture and an open position in which the aperture is entirely uncovered and the cover overlies a second portion of the end wall, the cover including a cover portion and a shaft portion extending orthogonally from the cover portion, the cover portion entirely covering the aperture when the cover is in the closed position, and the shaft portion being received within the housing.
