[Embodiment]

The embodiment of the flavor taster will be described below with reference to the drawings. The flavor inhaler, for example, uses a combustion-type heat source located on the front end side to warm the flavor source, and the intake side performs tasting, thereby allowing the user to taste the flavor from the flavor source.

As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the flavor taster 11 is provided with: a cylindrical (cylindrical) holder 12 extending from the mouth end 12A to the front end 12B; a combustion type provided at the front end 12B of the holder 12 Heat source 13 The fragrance 15, the second fragrance 41, and the third fragrance 51 contained in the combustion-type heat source 13; the fragrance source 16 provided in the holder 12; the cup 17 containing the fragrance source 16 inside; and the medium 12 present inside the holder 12 The aluminum bonding paper 18 in the space of the cup 17; the filter part 21 provided on the suction port end 12A side inside the holder 12; and the capsule 22 (perfume capsule) buried inside the filter part 21.

The holder 12 includes a first portion 23 that holds the combustion-type heat source 13 and the cup 17, and a second portion 24 that connects the first portion 23 and the filter portion 21 on the suction port end 12A side. The first part 23 is a paper tube formed by rolling a paper into a cylindrical shape. The second part 24 is a paper for outer paper (tipping paper). The outer paper is generally used as a paper covering a filter part in a cigarette with a filter (paper cigarette), and the outer paper is rolled into a cylindrical shape Instead, the second part 24 is formed. The aluminum bonding paper 18 is generally formed by bonding aluminum to paper, and it has improved heat resistance and thermal conductivity compared to general paper. With the aluminum bonding paper 18, even when the combustion-type heat source 13 is ignited, the first portion 23 (paper tube) of the holder 12 is not burned. The central axis C of the holder 12 coincides with the central axis C of the combustion-type heat source 13.

The fragrance source 16 is disposed downstream of the combustion-type heat source 13 at a position adjacent to the combustion-type heat source 13. The flavor source 16 is constituted by particles formed from tobacco extract or the like. In addition, the flavor source 16 is not limited to particles, and the tobacco leaf itself may be used. In other words, the flavor source 16 may also use tobacco raw materials such as general filament-like fine-cut tobacco used in cigarettes, granular tobacco used in snuff, rolled tobacco, and formed tobacco. The scent source 16 may be one that carries a scent on a carrier of porous material or non-porous material. Rolled Tobacco The sheet-shaped regenerated tobacco is obtained by molding into a roll shape, and has a flow path inside. Moreover, the molded tobacco is obtained by molding granular tobacco in a mold. The tobacco material or carrier used as flavor source 16 may contain the desired flavor. The fragrance source 16 has an acidic pH, for example.

For the pH analysis of the fragrance source 16, for example, the following method can be used. First, 400 mg of fragrance source 16 was collected, 4 mL of pure water was added, and vibration extraction was performed for 60 minutes. In a laboratory controlled to a room temperature of 22°C, place the extract in a closed container and adjust the temperature until it reaches room temperature, and then adjust the temperature. After reconciliation, the lid is opened, and the glass electrode of the pH meter (manufactured by METTLERTOLEDO: seveneasy S20) is immersed in the trapping liquid and the measurement is started. The pH meter is calibrated in advance with pH meter calibration solutions of pH 4.01, 6.87, and 9.21. The point where the output of the sensor fluctuates within 0.1mV within 5 seconds is taken as the pH of its extraction solution (fragrance source 16). In addition, the method of measuring the pH of the fragrance source 16 is only one example, and of course other methods may be used.

The cup 17 is formed into a cylindrical shape with a bottom by a metal material. A plurality of openings 25A are formed on the bottom 25 of the cup 17. When the user tastes, the tobacco flavor and air pass through the opening 25A and are attracted to the downstream side of the holder 12. The edge portion 26 of the cup 17 is curved outward in the radial direction of the holder 12 and can be caught on the front end of the holder 12 and the aluminum bonding paper 18. The inner peripheral surface of the cup 17 is provided with a segment portion 17A that is in contact with the base end surface 29 of the combustion-type heat source 13. The inner peripheral surface of the cup 17 can accommodate the body portion 27 of the combustion-type heat source 13 together with the segment 17A, while keeping the combustion-type heat source 13 from falling off.

The cup 17 may be a paper cup. Paper cups for example have It has the same structure as the metal cup described above. Paper cups can be manufactured using well-known techniques of pulp injection molding. Specifically, the paper cup is manufactured by kneading raw materials containing pulp, a binder, and water, pouring it into a heated mold, and drying and solidifying it. From the viewpoint of flavor, the binder is preferably CMC (carboxymethyl cellulose) or CMC-Na (carboxymethyl cellulose sodium). Compared to metal cups, paper cups have the characteristic that the heat transfer rate to the flavor source 16 is slower. In addition, paper cups can lighten the flavor inhaler or reduce manufacturing costs.

The filter unit 21 is constituted by a filter generally used for cigarettes. The capsule 22 is also a flavor capsule generally used in cigarettes, and a solution containing at least one of menthol, aldehyde flavor, and monoterpene flavor is stored inside. Among them, in particular, aldehyde-based fragrances and monoterpene fragrances are oxidized by contact with outside air, so it is preferably enclosed in the capsule 22. In addition, when menthol is volatilized and transferred to the combustion-type heat source 13, an unfavorable flavor is generated, so it is preferably enclosed in the capsule 22.

The filter portion 21 can be formed of various types of fillers. In the present embodiment, the filter portion 21 is formed of, for example, a filler material of cellulose-based semi-synthetic fibers such as cellulose acetate, but the filler material is not limited to this. For the filler, plant fibers such as cotton, hemp, manila hemp (Musa textilis), coconut, rushes, animal fibers such as wool, cashmere wool, rayon and other cellulose-based regenerated fibers, nylon, polyester, Synthetic fibers such as acrylate, polyethylene, polypropylene, or a combination of these. The constituent elements of the filter unit 21 may be a charcoal filter containing charcoal or a charcoal addition, in addition to the filler including the cellulose acetate fiber described above Filters for other particles. In addition, the filter portion 21 may have a multi-segment structure in which two or more different types of segments are connected in the axial direction.

As shown in Figure 2, the combustion-type heat source 13 (carbon heat source) is obtained by burning a mixture containing activated carbon derived from plants, non-combustible additives, binder (organic binder or inorganic binder), water, etc. The material is formed by integral molding using methods such as die ingot and die casting. The combustion-type heat source 13 is a mixture containing activated carbon and a binder such as honeycomb coal. The combustion-type heat source 13 contains what is called so-called highly activated carbon in activated carbon. Highly activated carbon refers to the activated carbon standardized to ISO9277:2010 and JIS Z 8830:2013 and having a specific surface area measured by the Brunauer-Emmett-Teller method (BET method) of, for example, 1300 m ² /g or more. The activated carbon used in the combustion-type heat source 13 has a porous structure containing plural macropores and plural micropores.

The BET specific surface area of the activated carbon of the combustion-type heat source 13 of this embodiment is, for example, 1300 m ² /g or more and 2500 m ² /g or less. More preferably, the BET specific surface area of the activated carbon of the three-combustion heat source 13 is, for example, 2000 m ² /g or more and 2500 m ² /g or less. The activated carbon optimal combustion type heat source 13, for example, BET specific surface area of 2050m ² / g or more 2300m ² / g or less. Therefore, the activated carbon used in the combustion-type heat source 13 of this embodiment is classified as highly activated carbon, and the amount of macropores and micropores is larger than that of general activated carbon. In other words, the combustion-type heat source 13 of the present embodiment uses a higher degree of activation than general activated carbon compared to general activated carbon. That is, the activated carbon used in the combustion-type heat source 13 is obtained by heat treatment of the carbon material to remove volatile impurities, and the activation degree is higher than that of general activated carbon. Unlike the fragrance source 16, the combustion-type heat source 13 has an alkaline pH, for example.

The combustion-type heat source 13 may contain activated carbon in the range of 10% to 99% by weight. Here, the concentration of the activated carbon contained in the combustion-type heat source 13 is preferably 30% by weight or more and 60% by weight or less from the viewpoint of supplying sufficient heat or preventing combustion characteristics such as ash fall. More preferably, the concentration of activated carbon contained in the combustion-type heat source 13 is 30% by weight or more and 45% by weight or less.

As the organic binder, for example, CMC (carboxymethyl cellulose), CMC-Na (carboxymethyl cellulose sodium), alginate, ethylene vinyl acetate (EVA), polyvinyl alcohol (PVA), polyvinyl acetate can be used. A mixture of at least one ester (PVAc) and sugar.

In addition, as the inorganic binder, for example, mineral-based binders such as refined bentonite, or silica-based binders such as colloidal silica, water glass, and calcium silicate.

For example, from the viewpoint of fragrance, the above-mentioned adhesive preferably contains 1 to 10% by weight of CMC or CMC-Na, more preferably contains 1 to 8% by weight of CMC or CMC-Na.

In addition, as the non-combustible additive, for example, carbon salts or oxides containing sodium, potassium, calcium, magnesium, silicon, and the like can be used. In addition, the combustion-type heat source 13 may contain 40% to 89% by weight of non-combustible additives.

Here, calcium carbonate is used as the non-combustible additive, and the combustion-type heat source 13 preferably contains 40 to 60% by weight of the non-combustible additive.

For the purpose of improving combustion characteristics, the combustion-type heat source 13 may also contain alkali metal salts such as sodium chloride at a ratio of 1% by weight or less.

As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the combustion-type heat source 13 is formed in a cylindrical shape. The combustion-type heat source 13 includes a body portion 27 held in the holder 12, a protruding portion 14 (exposed portion) protruding from the front end 12B of the holder 12, a front end surface 28 provided on the protruding portion 14, and a front end surface 28 facing The base end surface 29, the ventilation path 31 for supplying air inside the holder 12, the outer peripheral surface 32 adjacent to the front end surface 28, and the groove portion 33 provided in the protruding portion 14. The ventilation path 31 is provided along the central axis C of the combustion-type heat source 13 and is provided so as to penetrate the combustion-type heat source 13. The air passage 31 connects the front end surface 28 and the base end surface 29. The ventilation path 31 is provided so as to straddle both the body portion 27 and the protruding portion 14. The portion of the air passage 31 on the front end surface 28 side is integrated with the groove 33. The outer peripheral surface 32 is formed around the combustion-type heat source 13 at a position corresponding to the protruding portion 14. The protruding portion 14 (exposed portion) also protrudes from the front end of the cup 17.

The combustion-type heat source 13 has a first chamfered portion 34 formed between the front end surface 28 and the outer peripheral surface 32 and a second chamfered portion 35 formed between the base end surface 29 and the outer peripheral surface 32. With the first chamfered portion 34 and the second chamfered portion 35, cracks or defects in the corner portion of the combustion-type heat source 13 are less likely to occur.

Viewed from the front end surface 28 side, the entire groove 33 is formed in a "ten" shape. The shape of the groove 33 is not limited to the "ten" shape. The number of grooves 33 is arbitrary. The shape of the groove 33 as a whole may be any shape. For example, the plurality of grooves 33 may extend radially toward the outer peripheral surface 32 with the air passage 31 as the center. At this time, the angle between the adjacent groove portions 33 may be set appropriately within a range of 5° or more and 95° or less, for example. In the present embodiment, the groove 33 is formed from these depressions so as to span the front end surface 28 and the outer peripheral surface 32. The groove 33 is provided so as to communicate with the air passage 31. The depth (length) of the groove portion 33 of the combustion-type heat source 13 in the direction of the central axis C is preferably, for example, 1/3 to 1/5 of the total length in the direction of the central axis C.

The combustion-type heat source 13 preferably has the following dimensions. The total length of the combustion-type heat source 13 (the length of the combustion-type heat source 13 in the direction of the central axis C) is suitably set in the range of 5 mm or more and 30 mm or less, and more preferably in the range of 10 mm or more and 20 mm or less. Among them, the length of the protruding portion 14 in the direction of the central axis C is suitably set within a range of 5 mm or more and 15 mm or less, and more preferably within a range of 5 mm or more and 10 mm or less. Therefore, the length of the protruding portion 14 is set within a range of 2/3 or more and 4/5 or less of the total length of the combustion-type heat source 13, for example. In addition, the length of the portion where the combustion-type heat source 13 is inserted into the cup 17 (the length of the body portion 27 in the direction of the central axis C, the insertion length) is suitably set within the range of 2 mm or more and 10 mm or less, more preferably 2 mm or more and 5 mm or less Inside.

The diameter of the combustion-type heat source 13 (the length of the combustion-type heat source 13 in the direction orthogonal to the central axis C) is suitably set within a range of 3 mm or more and 15 mm or less, for example. The depth (length) of the groove 33 in the direction of the central axis C is suitably set within a range of 1 mm or more and 5 mm or less, and more preferably within a range of 2 mm or more and 4 mm or less. The width (inner diameter) W of the groove 33 is suitably set within a range of 0.5 mm or more and 1 mm or less, for example.

The groove 33 can be provided by recessing at least one of the front end surface 28 and the outer peripheral surface 32. For example, the groove 33 can be recessed by the front end surface 28 It is provided so as to communicate with the air passage 31 and is provided so as not to open on the outer peripheral surface 32 side. Similarly, for example, the groove portion 33 may be recessed from the outer peripheral surface 32 to communicate with the air passage 31, and may be provided so as not to open on the front end surface 28 side. In the latter case, the ventilation path 31 preferably extends to the front end surface 28 and opens to the outside at the front end surface 28.

In addition, the combustion-type heat source 13 may not have the ventilation path 31. In this case, it is preferable to form a plurality of small holes for ventilation in the holder 12 (first part 23). When the user tastes, the air is supplied into the holder 12 and the fragrance source 16 located in the holder 12 through the small hole.

As an example, the combustion-type heat source 13 can also be manufactured by the following method. After mixing 235.5 g of high activated carbon (BET specific surface area: 2050 m ² /g), 323.8 g of calcium carbonate, and 28.1 g of sodium carboxymethyl cellulose, 745.3 g of water containing 5.4 g of sodium chloride was added and further mixed. After kneading the mixture, it was extruded to form a cylindrical shape with an outer diameter of 6.5 mm. After drying the molded product obtained by this extrusion molding, it was cut to a length of 13 mm to obtain a primary molded body. With a 1.0 mm diameter drill, a through hole with an inner diameter of 1.0 mm is provided in the center of the primary molded body. A diamond cutter is used to perform cross groove processing on one end surface of the primary molded body. After these steps, the combustion-type heat source 13 is completed.

Thereby, a combustion-type heat source 13 was produced, which had the form shown in FIG. 2, contained activated carbon having a specific surface area of 2050 m ² /gBET, and had an activated carbon concentration of 39.7% by weight.

In this embodiment, the fragrance 15 is carried on the inner periphery of the front end surface 28 of the combustion-type heat source 13, the first chamfered portion 34, and the groove 33, respectively surface. The second fragrance 41 is supported on the outer peripheral surface 32 of the combustion-type heat source 13. The third fragrance 51 is supported on the air passage 31 (inner peripheral surface of the air passage 31). Furthermore, the fragrance 15, the second fragrance 41, and the third fragrance 51 are preferably not substantially supported on the base end surface 29 and the second chamfered portion 35 of the combustion-type heat source 13. However, the fragrance 15 scattered or diffused by the front end surface 28 and the first chamfered portion 34 may be adsorbed and held by the base end surface 29 and the second chamfered portion 35. In this case, the amount of fragrance 15 contained in the front end surface 28 and the first chamfered portion 34 is also greater than the amount of fragrance 15 contained in the base end surface 29 and the second chamfered portion 35.

The amount of the fragrance 15 carried on the combustion-type heat source 13 can be changed along the central axis C. That is, in the present embodiment, the load amount of the fragrance 15 is greatest when the front end surface 28 and the first chamfered portion 34 are used. At this time, the amount of fragrance 15 carried may not be uniform within the combustion-type heat source 13. The fragrance 15 can be carried inside the combustion-type heat source 13 so as to gradually reduce the amount of fragrance 15 from the front end surface 28 toward the base end surface 29.

The second fragrance 41 is supported on a plurality of ring-shaped supporting portions 42 formed on the outer peripheral surface 32 at predetermined intervals in the direction of the central axis C. The plurality of load-bearing portions 42 have a predetermined width in the direction of the central axis C and are formed in a band shape. The shape of the supporting portion 42 is not limited to a plurality of rings. The load-bearing part 42 may be formed into a relatively wide shape (ring-shaped). In addition, the shape of the supporting portion 42 is not limited to a ring shape. For example, a plurality of belt-shaped supporting portions 42 that are parallel to the central axis C and extend linearly may be provided. At this time, the supporting portion 42 is preferably arranged at a fixed interval from other adjacent supporting portions 42. At this time, the plurality of load-bearing portions 42 are arranged at fixed intervals around the central axis C.

The plurality of supporting portions 42 are preferably provided closer to the base end surface 29 side (the suction port end 12A side) than the front end surface 28 and the groove portion 33. Moreover, it is preferable that the plurality of supporting portions 42 are provided on the base end surface 29 side (at the suction port end 12A side) that is 3 mm or more from the front end surface 28. More preferably, a plurality of load portions 42 are provided on the side of the base end surface 29 (at the side of the suction port end 12A) separated from the front end surface 28 by 5 mm or more. By arranging these load-bearing parts 42, even when the user performs ignition near the front end surface 28, the fragrance 15 can be arranged at a position where it is not exposed to fire due to ignition. This arrangement is particularly useful when the loading portion 42 carries the fragrance 15 that loses its aroma due to ignition. In addition, the shape of the supporting portion 42 is not limited to a plurality of rings. The load-bearing part 42 may be formed into a relatively wide shape (ring-shaped).

The amount of the second fragrance 41 carried on the combustion-type heat source 13 can be changed along the radial direction of the combustion-type heat source 13. That is, in the present embodiment, the load amount of the second fragrance 41 is the largest on the outer peripheral surface 32. At this time, the loading amount of the second fragrance 41 may not be uniform within the combustion-type heat source 13. The second fragrance 41 can be carried inside the combustion-type heat source 13 so as to gradually decrease the amount of fragrance 15 from the outer peripheral surface 32 toward the central axis C.

In this embodiment, the fragrance 15, the second fragrance 41, and the third fragrance 51 are different from each other. The fragrance 15 is composed of, for example, anethole, but it may be a fragrance other than anethole. That is, the fragrance 15 may contain a member selected from the group consisting of 2-pinene, β-citronellol, agarwood acetate, limonene, anisaldehyde, 4-terpineol, 2-β-pinene, jasmon, juniper At least one of the group consisting of alkene, linalool, 1,8-cineol (1,8-cineol), phenethyl alcohol, and myristyl ether. The vapor pressure of the anethole of the fragrance 15 is 0.07 mmHg (25°C). 2nd The fragrance 41 is composed of limonene, for example, but may be a fragrance other than limonene. That is, the second fragrance 41 may contain a compound selected from the group consisting of anethole, 2-pinene, β-citronellol, agaryl acetate, anisaldehyde, 4-terpineol, 2-β-pinene, jasmonone, juniper At least one of the group consisting of ene, linalool, 1,8-cineol, phenethyl alcohol, and myristyl ether. The vapor pressure of 41 limonene (d-limonene), the second fragrance, was 1.44 mmHg (25°C). The third fragrance 51 is composed of linalool, but may be a fragrance other than linalool. That is, the third fragrance 51 may contain a compound selected from the group consisting of anethole, 2-pinene, β-citronellol, agarwood acetate, limonene, anisaldehyde, 4-terpineol, 2-β-pinene, and jasmonone. , Juniper, 1,8-cineole, phenethyl alcohol, and myristyl ether are at least one group. The vapor pressure of linalool in the third fragrance 51 is 0.16 mmHg (25°C). The concept of "dissimilarity" does not only refer to the different types of compounds. In the concept of "different", when a perfume system mixes a plurality of compounds to form a perfume, it also includes: (1) the type of compound (combination) as a component of the perfume is different, and (2) as a component of the perfume The compound types (combinations) are the same, but the compounding ratios of the compounds are different from each other.

The fragrance 15 may be the same as the second fragrance 41 or the third fragrance 51. The second fragrance 41 may be the same as the third fragrance 51. The fragrance 15, the second fragrance 41, and the third fragrance 51 may be constituted by mixing plural kinds of fragrances. In the present embodiment, the fragrance 15, the second fragrance 41, and the third fragrance 51 are carried on the combustion-type heat source 13, but it is possible to appropriately select whether to install these three types of fragrances. As a modification of the present embodiment, any one or more of fragrance 15, second fragrance 41, and third fragrance 51 may not be provided.

Carrying perfume 15 on end surface 28 before combustion-type heat source 13 Various methods can be used. For example, as shown in FIG. 3, the nozzle may be arranged to face the front end surface 28. As shown by the arrow in FIG. 3, from this nozzle, droplets of the solution containing the fragrance 15 will be directed from the nozzle to the front end surface 28 and the first The chamfered portion 34 is discharged (dropped), and the solution containing the fragrance 15 is attached to the front end surface 28 and the first chamfered portion 34. The solution containing the fragrance 15 may be spit out from the entire front end surface 28, or may be partly spit out from a part of the front end surface 28. For example, it is preferable to discharge the droplets of the solution containing the fragrance 15 out of the corresponding ventilation path so that the fragrance 15 does not adhere to the portion corresponding to the ventilation path 31 (the ventilation path 31 and the wall portion defining the outer edge of the ventilation path 31) 31 part of the location. This liquid system penetrates into the combustion-type heat source 13 from the front end surface 28, thereby allowing the fragrance 15 to be supported near the front end surface 28. Alternatively, you can hold the combustion heat source 13 at the position of the base end surface 29 side of the outer peripheral surface 32, and immerse the front end surface 28, the first chamfered portion 34, and the groove portion 33 of the combustion heat source 13 in the solution containing the fragrance 15 for a predetermined time, thereby The fragrance 15 can be carried on the front end surface 28, the first chamfered portion 34 and the groove portion 33. In addition, the front end surface 28 can be pressed against the elastic porous body (for example, sponge) containing the perfume 15, whereby the perfume 15 can be supported near the front end surface 28 and the first chamfered portion 31. In addition, an inkjet method can be used when discharging droplets of the solution containing the fragrance 15.

Various methods can be used for the method of supporting the second fragrance 41 on the outer peripheral surface 32 of the combustion-type heat source 13. For example, one prepared by arranging a plurality of tiny rollers partially immersed in the solution containing the second fragrance 41 in series with each other. The rotation direction of each roller is the direction that intersects the direction when a plurality of rollers are arranged in series. For the plurality of rollers configured as described above, the combustion-type heat source 13 is arranged so as to span from the upper side, and the combustion-type heat source is rotated on the plurality of rollers Heat source 13. Thereby, the second fragrance 41 can be transferred (applied) by forming a plurality of belt-shaped (ring-shaped) supporting portions 42 on the outer peripheral surface 32. Alternatively, the second fragrance 41 may be supported on the outer peripheral surface 32 by continuously applying the solution containing the second fragrance 41 with a higher viscosity from the nozzle close to the outer peripheral surface 32 to the rotating combustion-type heat source 13. In addition, the method of applying the second fragrance 41 to the outer peripheral surface 32 and supporting the second fragrance 41 on the outer peripheral surface 32 may be various methods such as an inkjet method.

The third fragrance 51 is carried on the air passage 31 by, for example, the following method. That is, the nozzle is arranged so as to face the air passage 31, and as shown by the dotted arrow in FIG. 3, droplets of the solution containing the third fragrance 51 are discharged (dropped) from the nozzle. As a result, a solution containing the third fragrance 51 is adhered to the inner peripheral surface of the air passage 31, and the liquid is penetrated into the combustion-type heat source 13, whereby the third fragrance 51 is supported near the inner peripheral surface of the air passage 31. The solution containing the third fragrance 51 can be discharged at the same time as the solution containing the fragrance 15 or at a time different from the solution containing the fragrance 15.

In addition, as described above, regarding the liquid droplet discharge (coating) of the solution containing the fragrance 15, the second fragrance 41, and the third fragrance 51, it is mainly explained that each fragrance is separately attached, but this can be performed at once by the inkjet method. Coating of other spices.

The function of the flavor taster 11 of this embodiment will be described. When the combustion-type heat source 13 is ignited and after ignition, the user can feel the aroma (external fragrance) emitted by the front end surface 28 by the ignition source or the heat from the combustion-type heat source 13.

The user ignites a fire near the end surface 28 before the combustion-type heat source 13, and if the user starts to taste, the combustion-type heat source 13 will heat up to a predetermined temperature (eg, 250°C to 900°C) by the heat from the combustion-type heat source 13 Heating the fragrance source 16. Thereby, the components contained in the fragrance source 16 are emitted, and pass through the filter portion 21 to reach the user's mouth. Thereby, the user can taste the fragrance of the fragrance source 16. At this time, the fragrance carried on the front end surface 28 is introduced into the holder 12 through the air passage 31 together with the surrounding air, and is mixed with the components released from the fragrance source 16 in the cup 17 and passes through the filter section 21 Reach the user's mouth. Therefore, the user can feel the fragrance 15 carried on the front end surface 28 in the form of the inner fragrance contained in the mainstream smoke. Furthermore, the user can squeeze the capsule 22 with his fingers as needed, thereby changing the smell of mainstream smoke. In addition, the inner fragrance mentioned here is the fragrance felt by the fragrance component that passes through the mouth (oral cavity) and passes to the nose (nasal cavity). In addition, the outer fragrance is the fragrance that is felt through the fragrance component that is transmitted to the nose (nasal cavity) without passing through the mouth (oral cavity).

The user performs tasting for a predetermined period of time, and the tasting ends when the burning heat source 13 is burnt out or the flavor of the flavor source 16 disappears. At this time, the ash of the combustion-type heat source 13 does not fall to the ground, but remains at the front end of the holder 12, so the burden on the surrounding environment is small. In addition, compared with the conventional paper cigarette (cigarette), the smoke generated by the flavor taster 11 is significantly reduced, so the burden on the surrounding environment is small.

(Example) [Example 1] [Results of hiding test] (Manufacture of combustion type heat source)

The combustion-type heat source 13 is manufactured according to the same method as described in the above embodiment. Thereby, a combustion-type heat source 13 was produced, which had the form shown in FIG. 2, contained activated carbon having a specific surface area of 2050 m ² /gBET, and had an activated carbon concentration of 39.7% by weight.

(test results)

Next, referring to FIG. 4, the results of carrying out various storage tests on the combustion-type heat source 13 composed of the highly activated carbon of this embodiment and carrying out storage tests will be described. In the combustion-type heat source 13 used in the storage test, the front end surface 28, the first chamfered portion 34, and the inner circumferential surface of the groove portion 33 of the highly activated carbon-fired heat source 13 of the present embodiment are spouted (dropped) containing fragrance And the fragrance is carried on the inner peripheral surface of the front end surface 28, the first chamfered portion 34 and the groove portion 33. The combustion-type heat source 13 loaded with fragrance was placed in an open system at a temperature of 40°C, and the residual rate of remaining fragrance was analyzed after 4 weeks. Specifically, the combustion-type heat source 13 is placed in ethanol to which an internal standard liquid is added, the combustion-type heat source 13 is shaken for 20 hours, and filtered to obtain a sample liquid. The sample liquid was analyzed by GC/MS. Thereby, the quantitative value of the fragrance remaining in the combustion-type heat source 13 is obtained. The residual rate (weight %) was determined from the amount of fragrance remaining in the combustion heat source 13 and the amount of fragrance supported on the combustion heat source 13. The results of the remaining percentage of fragrances are shown in the table in Figure 4. The fragrance in the table shown in FIG. 4 shows a residual rate of approximately 70% to 100%. Among the fragrances in the table shown in FIG. 4, the preferred fragrance shows a residual rate of 80% or more.

On the other hand, use high-activation carbon instead of As a comparative example. In the storage test results of the comparative example, there is a fragrance component whose residual rate is greatly reduced. The reason for this is considered to be that in the low-activity carbon, the number of macropores and micropores is insufficient, and there are few places where perfume can be adsorbed. Therefore, in the comparative example, the fragrance is scattered with the passage of time, and the residual rate of fragrance is greatly reduced. Therefore, it is considered that the use of highly activated carbon as a combustion-type heat source is effective for improving the stability of the storage of spices.

In the above embodiment, anethole is used as the flavor 15, limonene is used as the second flavor 41, and linalool is used as the third flavor 51. However, the flavor 15 may be composed of other flavors in the table of FIG. 4 other than anethole. In addition, the second fragrance 41 may be composed of other fragrances in the table of FIG. 4 other than limonene. The third fragrance 51 may be composed of other fragrances in the table of FIG. 4 other than linalool.

[Example 2] [Measurement results of transfer rate to mainstream smoke] (Manufacture of combustion type heat source)

The combustion-type heat source 13 is manufactured according to the same method as described in the above embodiment. Thereby, a combustion-type heat source 13 was produced, which had the form shown in FIG. 2, contained activated carbon having a specific surface area of 2050 m ² /gBET, and had an activated carbon concentration of 39.7% by weight.

(The measurement results)

Using the measuring device 61 shown in FIG. 5, the measurement is carried in this embodiment. The transfer rate of the spice (anethole) of the combustion type heat source 13 with high activated carbon to mainstream smoke. Using the measuring device 61, the measuring device 61 includes a holder portion 62 (cigarette holder) that holds the mouth end 12A of the flavor taster 11, and a cambridge filter provided on the downstream side of the holder portion 62 63. An air collector 65 provided downstream of the Cambridge filter 63, a tube 66 connecting the automatic smoker 64 and the air collector 65, and an automatic smoker 64 provided downstream of the air collector 65. Inside the air collector 65, methanol containing the internal standard solution is kept.

The transfer rate of flavors to mainstream smoke is measured in the following order.

The automatic smoker 64 is used to smoke the flavor inhaler 11 under the following conditions.

The smoking conditions of the automatic smoking device 64 are set as shown in the above table. For example, when the time is the horizontal axis and the pressure decrease is the vertical axis, the pressure decrease curve in the holder 12 of the flavor taster 11 becomes a so-called bell shape (within the taste time) (The middle point is the maximum pressure drop). As shown in the table above, the time interval between the start of smoking is 30 seconds. The smoking time (Duration) is 2 seconds. Therefore, in this smoking condition, smoking time and non-smoking time are alternately repeated in a manner of smoking time 2 seconds → non-smoking time 28 seconds → smoking time 2 seconds → non-smoking time 28 seconds. In addition, the volume of smoke inhaled in one smoking was 55 ml. The number of suctions is set to 15 times (confirmed The red heat of the burning heat source is 12 times + 3 times).

Smoking is carried out in such smoking conditions and the Cambridge filter 63 is used to capture the smoke. The Cambridge filter 63 was placed in methanol to which an internal standard solution was added, the Cambridge filter 63 was pulverized and shaken, and the sample liquid was obtained by filtration. The sample liquid was analyzed by GC/MS. Thereby, the quantitative value of the fragrance captured by the Cambridge filter 63 is obtained.

Similarly, for the smoke passing through the Cambridge filter 63, the air collector 65 with methanol added with the internal standard liquid is also used for trapping. The sample liquid obtained by the air collector 65 was analyzed by GC/MS. Thereby, the quantitative value of the fragrance collected by the air collector 65 is obtained.

In addition, the smoke attached to the inner wall of the tube 66 is also recovered in the following manner. First, after crushing the tube 66, it is placed in methanol to which an internal standard solution is added. This was shaken and filtered to obtain a sample liquid. The sample liquid was analyzed by GC/MS. Thereby, the quantitative value of the fragrance adhering to the inner wall of the tube 66 is obtained. GC/MS was performed under the conditions shown in Table 2 below.

The sum of the quantitative value of the fragrance collected by the Cambridge filter 63, the quantitative value of the collected fragrance collected by the air collector 65, and the quantitative value of the fragrance attached to the inner wall of the tube 66 is regarded as the transfer to mainstream smoke The weight of spices. The transfer rate of spices to mainstream smoke can be calculated using the following mathematical formula.

(Transfer rate) (%) = ((quantity value of fragrance captured by Cambridge filter 63) + (quantity value of fragrance captured by air collector 65) + (perfume attached to the inner wall of tube 66 Quantitative value)}/(total weight of spices in combustion-type heat source 13)... Equation (1)

As an example, the result of calculating the transfer rate in this way when using anethole as a spice.

The total weight of the fragrance loaded on the combustion-type heat source 13 is 3075 μg (corresponding to the denominator of formula (1)). On the other hand, the total weight of flavor transferred to mainstream smoke is 42.77 μg (corresponding to the molecule of formula (1)). Therefore, when anethole is used as a spice, the transfer rate of anethole to mainstream smoke is 1.39% using equation (1).

The following conclusions can be drawn from the above-mentioned embodiments, the results of storage tests and the measurement results of the transfer rate to mainstream smoke. That is, the flavor taster 11 is provided with: a cylindrical holder 12 extending from the suction port end 12A to the front end 12B; a fragrance source 16 held in the holder 12; a combustion-type heat source 13, which is provided at the front end 12B and contains active Carbon and perfume are supported, and the BET specific surface area of the activated carbon is 1300 m ² /g or more and 2500 m ² /g or less.

According to this configuration, those containing the so-called high-activated carbon can be used for the combustion-type heat source 13 system. In this way, by adopting a porous structure containing a large amount of macropores and micropores in a large amount of high-activated carbon, the fragrance is adsorbed in the combustion-type heat source 13 to ensure that the fragrance can be stably maintained for a long period of time. Thereby, a combustion-type heat source 13 with fragrance and a fragrance taster 11 provided with the combustion-type heat source 13 having a high fragrance residual rate after storage can be realized. Therefore, it is possible to provide attractive products suitable for users' preferences. In addition, according to the above configuration, the ignitability can be improved by the porous structure of highly activated carbon, and the flavor taster 11 that can be easily ignited can be realized. In addition, the porous structure of highly activated carbon can improve the combustion of the combustion-type heat source 13, and the combustion can continue to be stabilized in the combustion-type heat source 13. In addition, according to the above configuration, the BET specific surface area of the activated carbon is 2500 m ² /g or less, so that the combustion-type heat source 13 having sufficient strength can be realized. This prevents the combustion-type heat source 13 from becoming weak.

At this time, the BET specific surface area of the activated carbon is 2000 m ² /g or more and 2500 m ² /g or less. According to this configuration, even in so-called high-activated carbon, those with a high activation degree can be used, and the fragrance can be stably maintained for a longer period of time. Thereby, a fragrance taster 11 having a high fragrance remaining rate even after storage can be realized. The fragrance taster 11 is provided with a combustion-type heat source 13 with fragrance. In addition, the ignitability and combustibility of the combustion-type heat source 13 can be further improved.

The amount of carbon contained in the combustion-type heat source 13 is necessary and sufficient. That is, when the amount of carbon contained in the combustion-type heat source 13 is too large, there is a problem that the amount of heat generated is too large. When the amount of carbon contained in the combustion-type heat source 13 is too small, there is a problem that sufficient heat cannot be obtained. As described above, when the concentration of the activated carbon contained in the combustion-type heat source 13 is 30% by weight or more, sufficient heat can be supplied to the flavor source 16. Thereby, the fragrance source 16 can be heated at an appropriate temperature, and the ingredients can be efficiently taken out from the fragrance source 16 and reach the user's mouth. In addition, when the concentration of the activated carbon contained in the combustion-type heat source 13 is 60% by weight or less, ash scattering accompanying combustion can be reduced, and the amount of carbon monoxide contained in mainstream smoke can be reduced.

The concentration of the aforementioned activated carbon contained in the combustion-type heat source 13 is 30% by weight or more and 45% by weight or less. According to this configuration, the combustion-type heat source 13 having an appropriate carbon content (active carbon content) can be further realized. Thereby, it is possible to further surely prevent the temperature of the fragrance source 16 from being excessively increased or the amount of heat applied to the fragrance source 16 from being insufficient. In addition, according to the above configuration, it is possible to reduce the amount of ash scattering and the amount of carbon monoxide contained in mainstream smoke.

The combustion-type heat source 13 has a protruding portion 14 protruding from the front end 12B of the holder 12, and the aforementioned fragrance system is carried on the protruding portion 14. According to this configuration, not only can the fragrance loaded on the protruding portion 14 be introduced into the mainstream smoke to exert the effect of internal fragrance, but also directly reach the user's nose without being introduced into the mainstream smoke to exert the effect of external fragrance. In particular, when the taste inhaler 11 is held by the mouth, the protruding portion 14 of the combustion-type heat source 13 is disposed close to the user's nose, so even if a small amount of the fragrance 15 is used, the aroma (outer fragrance) can be efficiently Reach the user's nose. With these, user-friendly 味的味吸味器11。 Scent of taste hobby 11.

The protruding portion 14 has a front end surface 28, and the fragrance 15 is supported on the front end surface 28. According to this configuration, the fragrance 15 can be carried on the front end surface 28 that is less likely to be held by the user, even when the user holds the outer peripheral surface 32 of the combustion-type heat source 13 before savouring the flavor inhaler 11 It can prevent bad situations such as the fragrance 15 being transferred to the user's finger.

A filter portion 21 is provided, which is provided on the side of the mouth end 12A in the holder 12 and has a fragrance capsule. According to this configuration, the aroma and flavor of mainstream smoke can be changed by breaking up the spice capsules. This can provide a more attractive product that suits the user's preferences. In addition, the fragrance that is decomposed or volatilized by heat when supported on the combustion-type heat source 13 can be held in the fragrance capsule. Thereby, according to the characteristics of the fragrance, it can be carried in the combustion-type heat source 13 or in the fragrance capsule, which can further improve the freedom of the product when designing the fragrance (increasing the choice of fragrance).

At least one of menthol, aldehyde-based fragrance and monoterpene fragrance is enclosed in the aforementioned fragrance capsule. The inventors carried out a test for confirming the fragrance by carrying menthol on the combustion-type heat source 13, and as a result, it was confirmed that an unfavorable fragrance such as metal was generated. In addition, it was also confirmed that aldehyde-based fragrances and monoterpene fragrances will oxidatively deteriorate due to contact with outside air. According to the above configuration, it is possible to further interact with other flavors carried on the combustion-type heat source 13 without compromising the flavors of menthol, aldehyde flavors, and monoterpene flavors widely used in paper cigarettes (cigarettes). , And realize a flavor taster 11 with an ideal aroma. In addition, when menthol is enclosed in the fragrance capsule, the menthol is sealed in the fragrance capsule, so the menthol is transferred to the combustion-type heat source 13 without being scattered during storage. In addition, for fragrances, etc., which produce unfavorable fragrance when loaded on the combustion-type heat source 13, they can be carried in fragrance capsules, etc., and products can be appropriately designed according to the characteristics of the fragrance. This can further increase the freedom of the product when designing the fragrance (increasing the choice of fragrance).

The flavor taster 11 is not limited to the above-mentioned embodiment, and in the implementation stage, the constituent elements can be changed and embodied within the scope not exceeding the gist thereof. For example, the shape of the holder 12 is not limited to a cylindrical shape.
