Abstract
A flavor aspirator includes: a weight-concentrated part that is provided at a position off the mouthpiece end and closer to the mouthpiece end side than to a midpoint position between the mouthpiece end and the distal end, and that accounts for at least approximately half of a total weight of the flavor aspirator. A value of (a length from the mouthpiece end to the center of gravity)/(a total length defined by a length from the mouthpiece end to the distal end) is in a range of 0.20 to 0.45.
Claims18
A flavor aspirator comprising:
- a housing including a mouthpiece end and a distal end, the housing extending from the mouthpiece end to the distal end;
- and
- a weight-concentrated part including a first part provided in a vicinity of the mouthpiece end and a second part provided in a vicinity of the distal end, and that has a weight accounting for at least approximately half of the total weight, the weight being a sum of a weight of the first part and a weight of the second part,
- wherein a value of (a length from the mouthpiece end to the center of gravity)/(a total length defined by a length from the mouthpiece end to the distal end) is in a range of 0.20 to 0.45, and
- wherein the flavor aspirator has a rod shape or a cylindrical shape.
