Abstract
The aerosol-generating system (8) comprises a capsule (1) comprising a shell (10) comprising a base (101) and at least one side wall (100) extending from the base. The capsule further comprises a lid (11) sealed on the at least one side wall (100) for forming a sealed capsule (1). The shell (100) contains an aerosol-forming substrate (2) and comprises susceptor material for heating the aerosol-forming substrate (2) within the shell (1). The system further comprises a power source (700) connected to a load network comprising an inductor (702) for being inductively coupled to the susceptor material of the shell (1).
Claims20
A hand-held aerosol-generating system, comprising:
- a capsule comprising a shell comprising a base and at least one side wall extending from the base, the capsule further comprising a lid sealed on the at least one side wall and configured to form a sealed capsule, the shell containing an aerosol-forming substrate, and the base and the at least one side wall of the shell being made of susceptor material configured to heat the aerosol-forming substrate within the shell;
- a power source connected to a load network, the load network comprising an inductor configured to be inductively coupled to the susceptor material of the shell;
- a thermal insulation layer at least partially surrounding the susceptor material of the shell, wherein the thermal insulation layer is a material layer;
- and
- an aerosol-generating device comprising the inductor and a device housing comprising a cavity configured to receive the capsule,
- wherein the device housing further comprises the thermal insulation layer, and
- wherein the aerosol-generating device further comprises a mouthpiece.
