Abstract
There is provided an aerosol provision system including a vaporizer for generating a vapor from an aerosolizable material; an electrode 10 for receiving electrical power; and a sealing member 100, electrically connected to the vaporizer and the electrode, for transferring electrical power between the electrode and the vaporizer, wherein the sealing member is at least partially composed of a heat-resistant and electrically conductive composite material.
Claims
- 1-40. (canceled)
- 41. An aerosol provision system comprising:
a vaporizer for generating a vapor from an aerosolizable material;an electrode for receiving electrical power; anda sealing member that extends around and partially along a length of the electrode,wherein the electrode extends between a first end and a second end, and the first end is located more proximal to the vaporizer than the second end.
- 42. The aerosol provision system according to claim 41, wherein the sealing member is at least partially composed of a heat-resistant and electrically conductive composite material.
- 43. The aerosol provision system according to claim 41, wherein the sealing member is electrically connected to the vaporizer and the electrode, for transferring electrical power between the electrode and the vaporizer.
- 44. The aerosol provision system according to claim 41, wherein the sealing member has a first portion in proximity to the vaporizer and a second portion in proximity to the electrode or a surface of the aerosol provision system.
- 45. The aerosol provision system according to claim 41, wherein the sealing member has a maximum width of no more than 2.5 mm.
- 46. The aerosol provision system according to claim 41, wherein the sealing member has a maximum width of between 1.5 mm and 2.5 mm.
- 47. The aerosol provision system according to claim 41, wherein the aerosol provision system comprises a plurality of electrodes for receiving electrical power and a plurality of sealing members, wherein each of the plurality of sealing members is electrically connected to the vaporizer and a respective one of the plurality of electrodes for transferring electrical power between the respective one of the plurality of electrodes and the vaporizer.
- 48. The aerosol provision system according to claim 42, wherein the composite material of the sealing member comprises at least one of ceramic, polymer, carbon fiber, metal, metal alloy, or a combination thereof.
- 49. The aerosol provision system according to claim 42, wherein the composite material is selected from the group consisting of: a ceramic matrix composite, a metal matrix composite, and a combination thereof.
- 50. The aerosol provision system according to claim 49, wherein the composite material is a metal matrix composite.
