Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2008113335A2] The invention relates to a novel smokeless cigarette system comprising two parts: a reusable cigarette tube (1) and a nicotine stick (5) which can be discarded after use. The nicotine stick (5), comprising a deposit filter (2) that is charged with a nanobead solution (4) and nicotine and flavour substances attached thereto or incorporated therein, and the mouthpiece filter (3) are joined together and produced at the factory stage. All parts closely reproduce a cigarette as detailed as possible in terms of their outer appearance, design, dimensions, draw resistance during use, taste and nicotine absorption. According to the invention, the smokeless cigarette is particularly suited for use by smokers in non-smoking areas in order to prevent stress caused by nicotine withdrawal and as a cigarette substitute, but can also be used in different types of cigarettes with varied dosage strengths to ensure a gentle (slow) nicotine withdrawal and smoker disintoxication. Neither the environment nor other persons are harmed or put at risk by this novel system, neither by passive smoking nor by the generated odour. The system can be handled by the user in a simple and unproblematic manner since no heat source and no heating systems are required.
