Abstract (en)

A non-combustion heating type flavor inhaler according to the present invention is provided with: an electrical heating type device provided with an inductor for electromagnetic induction heating; and a non-combustion heating type flavor inhalation article. The electrical heating type device is provided with the inductor for electromagnetic induction heating, a power source that supplies operation power to the inductor, a control unit for controlling the inductor, and a heating chamber into which the non-combustion heating type flavor inhalation article can be inserted via an insertion slot. At least two protrusions for securing the non-combustion heating type flavor inhalation article that has been inserted into the chamber are provided on side walls that form the cavity of the chamber, and the height of these protrusions from the side walls is 0.3-2.0 mm, inclusive. The non-combustion heating type flavor inhalation article is such that the compression change rate of each segment, as measured by pressing the airflow-direction central part thereof against a flavor-generating segment and a mouthpiece segment, is 70% or greater.
