Abstract
The present disclosure relates to aerosol delivery devices. The aerosol delivery devices may include an atomizer, a reservoir configured to contain an aerosol precursor composition and an electrical circuit coupled to the atomizer. The electrical circuit may include an electrical generator assembly including a moveable input member and an electrical generator configured to produce an electrical current from movement of the moveable input member. The electrical circuit may be configured to direct the electrical current to the atomizer to produce an aerosol from the aerosol precursor composition. A related aerosol production method is also provided.
Claims21
A control body, comprising:
- a housing;
- and
- an electrical circuit including:
- an electrical generator assembly comprising a moveable input member extending out of the housing;
- an electrical generator configured to produce an electrical current from movement of the moveable input member;
- and
- a connector configured to direct the electrical current to an atomizer to produce an aerosol from an aerosol precursor composition.
An aerosol production method, comprising:
- producing an electrical current with an electrical generator assembly comprising a moveable input member, the moveable input member extending out of a housing;
- and
- directing the electrical current to an atomizer configured to receive an aerosol precursor composition from a reservoir to heat the aerosol precursor composition and produce an aerosol, the atomizer and the reservoir being engaged with or received within the housing.
