Abstract (en)

[origin: EP0364805A1] The purpose of the article is to simulate smoking by the inhalation of nicotine without the action of heat. A housing (10), having an air inlet (11) and an air outlet (12), contains a carrier structure (14), for example a bed of spheres (20), for a nicotine product which is vaporisable at room temperature. <??>The carrier structure (14) forms a large number of end-to-end flow channels (21). The nicotine product (e.g. pure nicotine) is deposited on their free, non-absorbent surface as a thin layer (22) which leaves the channels (21) free. <??>Suitable materials for the carrier structure (14) are glass and other sufficiently impermeable, inert materials. Various forms of carrier structures are described. <IMAGE>
