SMOKING ARTICLE

摘要

A member is provided for conducting heat from a combustible fuel element to an 'aerosol' generator which includes aerosol-forming material. The conducting member is spaced from the lighting end of the fuel element by at least 5 mm., and can circumscribe both the fuel element and generator, at least partially. Alternatively, the conductor contacts the fuel element along less than approx. half its length, e.g. it is embedded within it. Pref. the fuel element has a length of less than approx. 30 mm and has a density of about 0.5 g/cc.
