HEATER FOR AN ELECTRICALLY HEATED AEROSOL GENERATING SYSTEM

摘要

An electrically heated aerosol generating system for receiving an aerosol-forming substrate includes at least one electric heater for heating the aerosol-forming substrate to form the aerosol. The heater includes a heating element of a first cross section electrically connected to a plurality of elongate support elements. Each support element has a cross section greater than the first cross section. At least one of the support elements is integrally formed with the heating element.

主权项

1. An electrically heated aerosol generating system for receiving a capillary wick, the system comprising: at least one electric heater for heating the wick to form aerosol, the heater including a positive connector blade extending parallel to a negative connector blade, a heating element extending between the connector blades, a lower reinforcing strut extending from the positive connector blade towards the negative connector blade, and an upper reinforcing strut extending from the negative connector blade towards the positive connector blade, the upper and lower struts extending at least partially around a wick so as to maintain the heating element in contact with the wick.
