HEATING OF THE SMOKING MATERIAL Russian patent published in 2022 - IPC A24F40/20 

FIELD: smoking devices.

SUBSTANCE: group of inventions relates to variants of implementation of an apparatus for heating the smoking material. The apparatus for heating the smoking material includes a heater for the smoking material and a chamber for heating the smoking material, configured to accommodate the smoking material for heating and adjacent to the heater for the smoking material. The heater for the smoking material comprises a first heating zone configured to heat the first area of the smoking material to a vaporisation temperature sufficient for vaporising a component of the smoking material, and a second heating zone configured to simultaneously heat the second area of the smoking material to a temperature lower than the vaporisation temperature, but sufficient for preventing condensation of the vaporised component of the smoking material. The apparatus is made in combination with a smoking material placed in a cartridge configured to be inserted into the chamber for heating the smoking material, and the cartridge comprises a tube of the smoking material, configured to be led around the heater so that the inner surface of the tube of the smoking material is facing the longitudinal external surface of the heater for the smoking material.

EFFECT: condensation of vaporised components in the heating chamber is prevented.
