Aerosol Generation Device With Grip-Dependent Opening
Gladden Liam Nicholas Chrysostom, Wright Christopher John, Catton Phil Peter
An aerosol generation device (1) comprises a body (16) comprising a casing (7) with an opening (9) and an occluding element (5) moveable between a closed position occluding this casing opening (9) and an open position authorizing access to the casing (7). The body (16) further comprises a vibration generator (18) arranged for generating an initial vibration when a user holds the body (16) with a chosen grip pose, this initial vibration having an initial spectrum chosen for allowing it to propagate through the body (16), at least up to an area comprising the occluding element (5), and to be modified by the user's hand in the grip pose in a modified vibration with a modified spectrum, and a vibration- sensitive actuator (19) arranged for causing the occluding element (5) to move to its open position when it is subject to the modified vibration.
