Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2022064172A1] An aerosol provision system 300 comprising a reservoir for aerosolisable material, a wick 42 for receiving aerosolisable material from the reservoir 31, and a vaporiser 40 for vaporising aerosolisable material in the wick 42. A structure 301 from the aerosol provision system 300, in response to a temperature of the vaporiser 40 or wick 42 exceeding a predetermined temperature, is operable to change from a first configuration in which operation of the vaporiser 40 is possible, to a second configuration in which operation of the vaporiser 40 is prevented. This structure 301 could be operable to reversibly change between the first configuration and the second configuration, and might be configured to short circuit the vaporiser 40 in some cases. The structure might also be configured to disconnect a connection lead 41 for delivering power to the vaporiser 40 in some cases.
