Abstract (en)

[origin: US2021360970A1] A mechanism capable of specifying the arrangement of a flavor component generating base material in a suction device includes a retention part having an internal space; a pressure sensor for detecting a pressure applied to the inner wall of the retention part; and a control unit for specifying the arrangement of a flavor component generation base material in the internal space of the retention part on the basis of the detection result from the pressure sensor.
