본 발명은 가열식 담배용 전기 가열기에 관한 것으로, 좀 더 상세하게는 가열식 담배를 연소가 아닌 전기를 열원으로 하여 증류를 통해 향 추출물을 취하도록 하는 전기 가열기에 관한 것이다.The present invention relates to an electric heater for a heated cigarette, and more particularly, to an electric heater to take a fragrance extract through distillation using the heated tobacco as a heat source rather than combustion.
담배는Nicotiana tabacum이라는 학명을 갖는 쌍떡잎식물목 가지과의 여러해살이풀을 말하지만, 최근에는 상기한 담배의 잎을 궐련지로 싸고 일측에 필터부가 구성되어 흡연을 목적으로 제조된 제품을 통칭하기도 한다.Tobacco refers to the perennial plant of the dicotyledonous genus, which has the scientific nameNicotiana tabacum , but recently, the leaf of the tobacco is wrapped in cigarette paper and a filter part is formed on one side to collectively refer to a product manufactured for smoking.
이러한 담배는 전 세계적으로 수천 종에 이르며, 모양이나 형태로 다양하게 출시되고 있다. 이중 본 발명은 전기가열식 담배와, 상기 담배를 가열하기 위한 가열기에 관한 내용으로서 이에 대해서 설명하기로 한다.These cigarettes are thousands of species worldwide and are available in a variety of shapes and forms. Of these, the present invention will be described as an electric heating cigarette and a heater for heating the cigarette.
일반적으로 가열식 담배는 연소가 아닌 가열에 의해 담배의 연소시 발생되는 통상의 생성물, 즉 연기를 생성시키지 않고 가열된 주위의 공기를 빨아들여 흡연자의 입에 흡입된 후 방출되도록 함에 따라 흡연이 이루어지도록 한다.In general, heated cigarettes smoke by heating, not by combustion, by taking the normal surroundings of the cigarette, that is, smoke, into the smoker's mouth, releasing the heated ambient air without producing smoke. do.
이러한 가열식 담배의 필립모리스사에서 최초 출시되어 그 기술이 공개되어 있으며, 이중 비교적 초기모델이며 최초로 전기를 가열원으로 사용한 미국 특허 출원번호 제89-444746호의 향미제 전달기구를 살펴보면 다음과 같다.This heating cigarette was first released by Philip Morris, the technology is disclosed, of which is a relatively early model, the first time the flavor delivery mechanism of US Patent Application No. 89-444746 using electricity as a heating source is as follows.
도 1은 종래 가열식 담배를 나타낸 분해 사시도로서, 이에 도시된 바와 같이  그 구성은 히터가 내장된 마우스피스부(110)와, 전원공급부(121)와 제어회로(미도시)가 내장된 제어부(120)로 구성되며, 상기 마우스피스부(110)와 제어부(120)는 각각 형성된 접촉핀(112)과 소켓(122)에 의해 전기적으로 결합되어 있다.1 is an exploded perspective view showing a conventional heated cigarette, as shown in the configuration is a
상기와 같은 구성을 갖는 담배는 히터요소가 내장된 일체형으로서, 초기모델의 가열식 담배가 그 열원을 제어하기가 힘들어 향미의 품질이 낮다는 문제점을 개선하고자 일정하게 열원을 제어할 수 있도록 한 최초의 전기가열식 모델이었다. 그러나, 이와 같은 가열식 담배는 히터요소가 일회성이기 때문에 제조원가가 높아 대중적이지 못하다는 문제점이 있었다.Cigarette having the above configuration is a one-piece unit with a built-in heater element, the first to heat the cigarette of the initial model is difficult to control the heat source to improve the problem of low quality of the flavor to control the heat source constantly It was an electrically heated model. However, there is a problem that such a heated cigarette is not popular because the manufacturing cost is high because the heater element is one-time.
상기와 같은 문제점에 대한 해결방안으로 히터요소를 별도로 분리하여 영구사용가능한 전기 가열기로 제작하고, 일회용인 가열식 담배로 변경하였으며, 따라서 추후에는 전기 가열기에 대한 히터요소의 개량에 관한 연구와 가열식 담배의 구조개선에 관한 연구로 크게 나누어져 진행되어 왔다.As a solution to the above problems, the heater element was separately separated and manufactured as an electric heater that can be used permanently, and was changed to a disposable cigarette. Therefore, the study on the improvement of the heater element for the electric heater and the It has been largely divided into studies on structural improvement.
현재 가장 대중화된 모델로서 미국 특허 출원번호 제93-118665호에서는 가열식 담배와, 상기 담배로부터 개선된 연무질과 맛을 전달할 수 있는 전기 가열기를 포함하는 흡연시스템을 소개하고 있다.US Patent Application No. 93-118665, currently the most popular model, introduces a smoking system comprising a heated cigarette and an electric heater capable of delivering improved aerosol and taste from the cigarette.
도 2a는 종래 흡연시스템을 설명하기 위한 부분절개 사시도이고, 도 2b는 도 2a의 구성 중 히터를 확대하여 나타낸 사시도로서, 이에 도시된 바와 같이 종래 흡연시스템은 연초의 감응을 발생시키는 연초 풍미제를 포함하는 가열식 담배(210)와, 상기 담배(210)가 삽입되면 가열시키기 위한 전기적 히터소자를 내장하고 있는 전기 가열기(220) 및 상기 전기 가열기(220)에 전원을 공급하고 자체충전이 가능한  전원공급부(230)로 구성되어 있다.FIG. 2A is a partially cutaway perspective view illustrating a conventional smoking system, and FIG. 2B is an enlarged perspective view of a heater in the configuration of FIG. 2A, and as shown in FIG. 2A, a conventional smoking system includes a tobacco flavor that produces a tobacco response. A power supply unit capable of supplying power and supplying power to the
이 중 전기 가열기(220)에 대해 좀 더 상세하게 살펴보면, 전면의 삽입구(222)를 통해 삽입된 담배(210)의 외측을 감싸면서 가열하기 위한 히터부(221)가 구비되고, 흡연자의 흡연여부를 감응하는 광센서(223)와 회로소자(224) 및 지시계(225)가 설치되어 있다. 또한 전원공급부(230)에는 전기를 저장할 수 있는 충전지(231)가 내장되어 있다.Looking in more detail of the
그러나, 상기와 같은 전기 가열기(220)는 담배를 가열하는 방식이 히터부(221) 내에 원통형으로 형성된 8개의 히트 블레이드(221a)가 그 내부에 삽입된 담배의 외측을 가열함으로써 향 추출물을 얻는 튜브 인 튜브(Tub In Tube) 방식으로, 이러한 방식은 필연적으로 히터부(221) 외부로 열의 방출이 일어나기 때문에 열효율이 낮다는 문제점이 있었다.However, the
따라서, 담배가 향 추출물을 얻을 수 있는 적정온도보다 더 높은 온도의 환경을 조성해야 하며, 이로 인해 대용량이 전원을 공급하기 위한 충전지가 구비되어야 할 뿐만 아니라 흡연자의 흡입여부를 실시간으로 파악하여 전력의 불필요한 낭비를 막기 위한 구성요소가 설치되는 것이다.Therefore, it is necessary to create an environment with a temperature higher than the proper temperature at which tobacco can obtain the aroma extract, and therefore, a large-capacity battery must be provided to supply power, and the smoker's inhalation can be grasped in real time to determine the power consumption. Components are installed to prevent unnecessary waste.
그러나, 이와 같이 사용자의 편의를 위해 설치된 구성요소는 제품의 제조원가를 높이게 되는 하나의 요인으로 작용하여 구매비용의 부담감만 증가시키게 될 뿐만 아니라 그 크기는 불필요하게 커지고 무게 또한 무거워지기 때문에 통상적으로 손가락 사이에 끼워 사용하는 종전의 습관을 그대로 사용할 수 없어 사용상에 불편함이 있었다.However, the components installed for the convenience of the user act as a factor that increases the manufacturing cost of the product, which not only increases the burden of the purchasing cost but also increases the size unnecessarily and the weight is also heavy, which is usually between fingers. It was inconvenient to use because the previous habit of using it was not used as it is.
따라서 본 발명은 상기와 같은 문제점을 해결하기 위한 것으로, 가열식 담배를 가열하기 위한 가열기의 히팅방식을 튜브 인 튜브(Tub In Tube) 방식이 아닌 새로운 방식으로 구성하여 열효율을 극대화함과 동시에 불필요한 구성요소를 제거하여 제조원가를 낮추고, 사용자의 편이성을 향상시킬 수 있는 전기 가열기를 제공하는 것을 목적으로 한다.Therefore, the present invention is to solve the above problems, by constituting the heating method of the heater for heating the heated cigarette in a new method instead of the tube in tube (Tub In Tube) method to maximize the thermal efficiency and unnecessary components at the same time It is an object of the present invention to provide an electric heater that can reduce the manufacturing cost and improve the user's convenience.
상기와 같은 목적을 달성하기 위하여 본 발명은,The present invention to achieve the above object,
가열식 담배를 전기를 열원으로 가열하기 위한 전기 가열기에 있어서,In the electric heater for heating the heated tobacco with a heat source,
일측 삽입구를 통해 가열식 담배가 삽입되는 원통형의 몸체가 있고, 상기 몸체 타측의 폐쇄면에는 외부 전원공급장치의 접속단자가 삽입되는 전원 접속구가 구비되며, 몸체 내부에는 전원 접속구의 전극과 전기적으로 연결되어 소정의 온도까지 가열되는 히팅부가 침형으로 설치된 것을 특징으로 하는 전기가열식 담배용 전기 가열기를 제공함으로써 달성된다.There is a cylindrical body into which the heated cigarette is inserted through one side of the insertion hole, the other side of the body is provided with a power connection port for inserting the connection terminal of the external power supply, the inside of the body is electrically connected to the electrode of the power connection port It is achieved by providing an electric heater for an electric heated tobacco, characterized in that a heating portion heated to a predetermined temperature is provided in a needle shape.
이하에서는 본 발명에 대하여 첨부된 도면에 도시된 실시예에 따라 구체적으로 설명하기는 하나, 본 발명이 도면에 도시된 실시예만으로 한정되는 것은 아니다.Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the embodiments shown in the accompanying drawings, but the present invention is not limited to the embodiments shown in the drawings.
도 3은 본 발명의 전기 가열기를 나타낸 사시도이고, 도 4는 도 3의 전기 가열기를 절단하여 나타낸 단면도이다.3 is a perspective view showing the electric heater of the present invention, Figure 4 is a cross-sectional view showing the electric heater of Figure 3 cut.
이에 도시된 바와 같이 본 발명의 전기 가열기(1)는 가열식 담배(2)가 내부로 삽입되는 원통형 몸체(10)와, 상기 몸체(10)의 일측 폐쇄면에 구비된 전원 접속구(20)와, 몸체(10) 내부에 그 길이방향을 따라 침(Probe)형으로 길게 설치된 히팅부(30)로 구성된다.As shown therein, the
먼저, 몸체(10)는 일측은 외부와 개방되어 가열식 담배(2)가 몸체(10) 내부로 삽입되도록 통로역할을 하는 삽입구(11)가 구비되어 있고, 타측은 내부로 삽입된 담배(2)가 더 이상 진입되는 것을 방지하기 위한 폐쇄면(12)을 갖는다. 이와 같은 몸체(10)의 길이는 통상의 가열식 담배가 필터부분을 제외한 다른 부분이 대부분 삽입될 수 있도록 제작하는 것이 바람직하다.First, the
또한, 상기 몸체(10)의 재질은 열전도도가 낮고 내열성을 갖는 비철금속 물질 또는 합성수지 등으로 제작되어야 하며, 내부에 삽입된 담배의 상태를 용이하게 파악할 수 있도록 투명도를 갖는 제품을 사용하는 것이 바람직하다.In addition, the material of the
전원 접속구(20)는 몸체(10) 타측의 폐쇄면(12)에 형성되며, 외부의 전원공급장치(3)의 접속단자(3a)가 삽입되어 히팅부(30)로 전원을 공급하기 위한 통로 역할을 수행한다.The
상기한 전원공급장치(3)로는 종래 알려진 전원공급장치가 모두 사용가능하며, 이러한 전원공급장치의 접속단자(3a)의 모양에 따라 전원 접속구(20)의 형태도 변경이 가능함을 밝혀둔다. 다만 본 발명에서는 바람직한 전원공급장치(3)로 직류  아답터(DC Adapter)를 사용하였으며, 이에 전원 접속구(20)의 형태도 도면에 도시된 바와 같이 직류 아답터의 접속단자(3a)가 삽입될 수 있는 형태로 도시하였으나, 이에 한정되는 것은 아니다.As the
히팅부(30)는 몸체(10) 내부에 그 길이방향을 따라 길게 침(Probe)형으로 형성되어 있으며, 그 밑단은 몸체(10)의 폐쇄면(12)에 고정됨과 동시에 전원 접속구(20)의 전극과 전기적으로 연결되어 전원을 공급받아 소정의 온도까지 가열된다. 상기 가열온도는 담배의 충진물을 증류시킬 수 있는 충분한 온도로 이루어지는 것이 바람직하다.The
이와 같은 히팅부(30)는 몸체(10) 내부로 가열식 담배(2)를 삽입시 상기 담배(2)의 충진물층 내부에 자연스럽게 위치되며, 추후 전원을 공급받은 히팅부(30)가 가열됨에 따라 그 주위의 담배 충진물을 증류시키게 되고, 이에 사용자는 상기 증류에 의해 형성된 물질을 담배 필터를 통해 흡입하게 된다.Such a
따라서, 종래 연소에 의한 담배 생성물인 연소화합물이나 열변형 물질은 생성되지 않고, 비교적 인체에 유해성이 없는 물질이 포함된 것으로 알려진 증류 추출물만을 흡입하도록 한다. 아울러 종래 가열식 담배와 달리 충진물을 감싸고 있는 권련지의 탄화 등의 훼손없이 흡입할 수 있다는 또 다른 특징이 있다.Therefore, no combustion compound or heat deformation material, which is a tobacco product by conventional combustion, is produced, and only a distillation extract known to contain a substance which is relatively harmful to the human body is inhaled. In addition, unlike the conventional heated cigarettes, there is another feature that can be inhaled without damaging the carbonized paper surrounding the filling.
이와 같은 히팅부(30)의 구성은 전원 접속구(20)의 (+)극과 접촉된 구리선(31)이 정 중앙에 위치되고, 상기 구리선(31)의 외부면에는 전기절연체(32)가 코팅되어 있으며, 가장 최외각에는 전원 접속구(20)의 (-)극과 접촉된 전기저항체(33)가 구비된 삼중구조로 구성되며, 이 때 구리선(31)과 전기저항체(33)는 전원 접속 구(20)의 반대쪽 끝단에서 서로 접촉되어 발열이 이루어진다.In this configuration of the
이와 같은 구성을 갖는 본 발명의 전기 가열기는 종래 가열식 담배를 외부에서 가열하여 향 추출물을 얻는 튜브 인 튜브(Tub In Tube) 방식이 아닌 담배 내부의 각초를 직접 가열하는 침(Probe)형 방식으로 가열하는 전혀 다른 새로운 방식의 가열기이다.Electric heater of the present invention having such a configuration is heated in a probe type method of directly heating the kerosene inside the cigarette, not a tube in tube (Tub In Tube) method to obtain a flavor extract by heating the conventional heating tobacco from the outside. That's a completely new way of heating.
상기와 같은 전기 가열기는 담배 궐련 내부에서 가열이 이루어지므로 외부로의 열 방출이 거의 없어 열효율이 뛰어나며, 적은 양의 전력으로도 충분한 가열이 이루어질 수 있으며, 그 구성이 단순화되어 제조원가를 낮출 수 있어 사용자의 구매비용을 상당부분을 절감할 수 있다.Since the electric heater is heated inside the cigarette cigarette, there is almost no heat dissipation to the outside, so the heat efficiency is excellent, and sufficient heating can be performed even with a small amount of power, and the configuration thereof can be simplified to lower the manufacturing cost. The cost of purchasing can be reduced considerably.
아울러, 전기 가열기의 크기나 직경은 담배에 비하여 몸체에 해당하는 만큼만 커지기 때문에 통상적으로 손가락 사이에 끼워 사용하는 종전의 습관을 그대로 사용할 수 있고, 그 무게 또한 상당부분은 줄어들었기 때문에 종래 전기 가열기에 비하여 사용자의 편이성을 향상시킨다.In addition, since the size and diameter of the electric heater is only as large as that of the body compared to the cigarette, the conventional habit of using between the fingers can be used as it is, and the weight is also much reduced, compared to the conventional electric heater. Improve user convenience.
상술한 바와 같이 본 발명의 가열식 담배용 전기 가열기는 종래 가열식 담배를 외부에서 가열하여 향 추출물을 얻는 튜브 인 튜브(Tub In Tube) 방식이 아닌 담배 내부의 각초를 직접 가열하는 침(Probe)형 방식으로 가열함으로써, 외부로의 열 방출이 거의 없어 열효율이 뛰어나고, 단열기능 수단을 갖는 부분이 생략되어 외장의 크기가 축소되며, 적은 양의 전력으로도 충분한 가열이 이루어질 수 있고, 그 구성이 단순화되어 제조원가를 낮출 수 있어 사용자의 구매비용을 상당부분을 절감할 수 있는 효과가 있다.As described above, the electric heater for a heated cigarette of the present invention is a probe type method for directly heating the vinegar inside the cigarette, not a tube in tube method in which a conventionally heated cigarette is heated from the outside to obtain a fragrance extract. By heating with the heat dissipation to the outside, there is little heat dissipation to the outside, the thermal efficiency is excellent, the part which has a heat insulation function is omitted, the size of the exterior is reduced, sufficient heating can be achieved even with a small amount of power, and the structure is simplified Since manufacturing costs can be lowered, the user's purchasing cost can be substantially reduced.
또한 본 발명은 전기 가열기의 크기나 직경은 담배에 비하여 몸체에 해당하는 만큼만 커지기 때문에 통상적으로 손가락 사이에 끼워 사용하는 종전의 습관을 그대로 사용할 수 있고, 그 무게 또한 상당부분은 줄어들었기 때문에 종래 전기 가열기에 비하여 사용자의 편이성을 향상시키는 효과가 있다.In addition, in the present invention, since the size or diameter of the electric heater increases only as much as that of the body, compared to cigarettes, conventional electric heaters can be used as they are, and the weight is also reduced. Compared with this, the user's convenience is improved.
