Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2022214680A1] An aerosol-generating device (3) comprises an axially extending heating chamber (15), an axially extending storage chamber (17), and a positioning mechanism (81). The storage chamber (17) is provided in coaxial arrangement with the heating chamber (15). The aerosol-generating device (3) is configured to receive an aerosol-generating article (5) in a consumption position. In the consumption position, an aerosol-generating section (9) of the aerosol-generating article (5) is at least partially arranged in the heating chamber (15). The aerosol-generating device (3) is configured to receive the aerosol-generating article (5) in a storage position. In the storage position, the aerosol-generating section (9) of the aerosol-generating article (5) is at least partially arranged in the storage chamber (17). The positioning mechanism (81) is configured to move the aerosol-generating article (5) form the storage position into the consumption position. The positioning mechanism (81) is configured to move the aerosol-generating article (5) from the consumption position into the storage position.
