Abstract
An aerosol-generating device is provided, including: a battery, and a heater configured to heat the battery, in which one or both of the battery and the heater are movably mounted in the aerosol-generating device, such that the battery and the heater are relatively movable towards each other between a near position and a distanced position, the near position being different from the distanced position. An aerosol-generating system including an aerosol-generating article and the aerosol-generating device, and a method for heating a battery in the aerosol-generating device, are also provided.
Claims15
An aerosol-generating device, comprising:
- a battery, and
- a heater configured to heat the battery,
- wherein one or both of the battery and the heater are movably mounted in the aerosol-generating device, such that the battery and the heater are relatively movable towards each other between a near position and a distanced position, wherein the near position is different from the distanced position.
A method for heating a battery in an aerosol-generating device, the method comprising steps of:
- providing the aerosol-generating device, comprising a battery and a heater configured to heat the battery, wherein one or both of the battery and the heater are movably mounted in the aerosol-generating device, such that the battery and the heater are relatively movable towards each other between a near position and a distanced position, wherein the near position is different from the distanced position;
- and
- relatively moving the battery towards the heater from the distanced position into the near position to heat the battery.
