Abstract

The invention relates to a cleaning tool for an aerosol-generating device. The cleaning tool comprises a cleaning head and a handle. At least a part of the cleaning head is rotatably mounted in the handle. The cleaning tool further comprises at least one suspension element arranged between the cleaning head and the handle. The suspension element is arranged to engage the cleaning head or the handle to prevent relative rotation between the cleaning head and the handle, if a torque below a predetermined threshold is applied between the cleaning head and the handle. The suspension element is configured to disengage the cleaning head or the handle, if a torque above a predetermined threshold is applied between the cleaning head and the handle.
