- the aerosol generating device 1 can buffer heat released to the outside even when the main body 30 generates heat.
- the front cover 10 functions to insulate heat generated from the heating section of the main body 30.
- the front cover 10 is formed so that its surface is approximately curved. Then, when attached to the main housing 20, the front cover 10 defines an internal space together with the surface of the main housing 20.
- the housing 40 should be sized to fit in the user's hand.
- the user holds the aerosol generating device 1 in one hand with the fingertips in contact with the surface of the front cover 10.
- the front cover 10 deforms to form a recess toward the main housing 20.

- front cover 10 is attached to main body housing 20, magnet 11 and magnet 14 are attracted to main body housing 20 by their magnetic force (magnetic attraction). This holds front cover 10 to main body housing 20.
- Protrusion 12 presses operation button 22 provided on the surface of main body housing 20.
- Magnet 13 is configured as a magnetic field application unit for the sensor unit of main body 30. In other words, the magnetic field applied by magnet 13 is detected by magnetic sensor 23 of main body housing 20, thereby detecting front cover 10.
- the magnet 21, the passage hole 25, the operation button 22, and the magnet 24 are arranged on the outer surface of the main housing 20 along the longitudinal direction from the shutter 50 side. Also, on the inner surface of the main housing 20 (more precisely, on a substrate that is approximately zero distance from the inner surface), a magnetic sensor 23 is arranged at a position between the operation button 22 and the magnet 24 along the longitudinal direction.
- the magnet 21, the operation button 22, the magnetic sensor 23, and the magnet 24 of the main housing 20 correspond to the magnet 11, the protrusion 12, the magnet 13, and the magnet 14 of the front cover 10, respectively. In other words, when the front cover 10 is attached to the main housing 20, the magnet 21, the operation button 22, the magnetic sensor 23, and the magnet 24 are aligned and face the magnet 11, the protrusion 12, the magnet 13, and the magnet 14, respectively.
- the magnets 21 and 24 of the main housing 20 are attracted to the magnets 11 and 14 of the front cover 10, respectively, by their magnetic force (magnetic attraction). In other words, the magnets 11 and 21, and the magnets 14 and 24 attract each other, thereby holding the front cover 10 in a mountable state to the main housing 20. It is preferable that the magnets 11 and 14 of the front cover 10, and the magnets 21 and 24 of the main housing 20 are made of permanent magnets.
- the operation button 22 is provided on the surface to which the front cover 10 is attached.

- the magnetic sensor 23 of the main housing 20 is configured so as not to detect the magnetic fields generated by the two magnets 21 and magnet 24 of the main housing 20. Specifically, it is preferable to position the magnetic sensor 23 on the inner surface of the main housing 20 at a position spaced apart from the two magnets 21 and magnet 24 on the outer surface of the main housing 20. This makes it possible to reduce the influence of the magnetic fields from the two magnets 21 and magnet 24 on the magnetic sensor 23 to approximately zero.
- the distance between the magnetic sensor 23 and the magnet 24 (or magnet 21) in the main housing 20 is greater than the distance between the magnet 13 and the magnetic sensor 23 when the front cover 10 is attached to the main housing 20. This allows the magnetic sensor 23 to appropriately take into account only the effect of the magnetic field applied from the magnet 13, without taking into account the effect of the magnetic field of the magnet 24, when detecting the attachment of the front cover 10 to the main housing 20.
- the through hole 25 is an opening aligned with one or more LEDs arranged in the main body 30, and allows light from the LEDs to pass through to the display window 60 of the front cover 10. This allows the user to see the light from the outer surface of the front cover 10.

- FIG. 10 is a flowchart showing a first example of the operation of the control unit 300 of the aerosol generating device 1 in this embodiment.
- the control unit 300 determines whether the front cover 10 is attached (step 351). For example, the control unit 300 determines whether the front cover 10 is attached based on whether the magnetic sensor 23 detects the magnetic force from the magnet 13 of the front cover 10. If it is determined that the front cover 10 is not attached, the control unit 300 controls the LED to display (step 354). For example, the control unit 300 turns on the LED switch so that the LED can display.
- the control unit 300 determines whether the front cover 10 has a liquid crystal display (step 352). For example, the control unit 300 receives information indicating whether the front cover 10 has a liquid crystal display, which is stored in the memory unit 102 of the front cover 10, from the communication unit 103 of the front cover 10 via the communication unit 305. The control unit 300 then determines whether the front cover 10 has a liquid crystal display based on this received information. If it is determined here that the front cover 10 does not have a liquid crystal display, the control unit 300 controls the LED to display (step 354). For example, the control unit 300 turns on the LED switch so that the LED can be used for display.
- the control unit 300 determines whether the liquid crystal display hides the LED (step 353). For example, the control unit 300 receives information indicating the position of the liquid crystal display and information indicating whether the liquid crystal display is transparent or non-transparent, which are stored in the memory unit 102 of the front cover 10, from the communication unit 103 of the front cover 10 via the communication unit 305. Then, based on this received information, the control unit 300 determines whether the liquid crystal display hides the LED. If it is determined here that the liquid crystal display does not hide the LED, the control unit 300 controls the LED to be displayed (step 354). For example, the control unit 300 turns on the LED switch so that the LED can be displayed.
- step 353 If it is determined in step 353 that the LCD display hides the LED, the control unit 300 controls the LED so that it is not displayed (step 355). For example, the control unit 300 turns off the LED switch so that display by the LED is not possible. At that time, the control unit 300 controls the LCD display so that it is displayed.
- step 353 if it is determined in step 353 that the LCD display does not hide the LED, the control unit 300 controls the LED to be displayed, but this is not limited to the above. Even if it is determined in step 353 that the LCD display does not hide the LED, if it is determined that the front cover 10 hides the LED because the display window 60 is not provided or for other reasons, the control unit 300 may control the LED not to be displayed.
- FIG. 11 is a flowchart showing a second operation example of the control unit 300 of the aerosol generating device 1 in this embodiment.
- the flowchart in FIG. 11 is obtained by removing step 353 from the flowchart in FIG. 10.
- steps 351, 352, 354, and 355 in FIG. 10 are respectively steps 371, 372, 373, and 374 in FIG. 11.
- the control unit 300 controls the LED to display (step 373). For example, the control unit 300 turns on the LED switch so that display by the LED is possible. If it is determined in step 372 that the front cover 10 has a liquid crystal display, the control unit 300 controls the LED not to display (step 374). For example, the control unit 300 turns off the LED switch so that display by the LED is disabled. At that time, the control unit 300 controls the liquid crystal display to display.

Abstract
Description
特許文献2には、制御部が、非通常状態の内容や原因に基づいたエラー信号を生成し、通知部に、エラー信号に応じた通知をさせるエアロゾル生成装置が開示されている。そして、通知部は、例えば、発光ダイオードであることが記載されている。
カバーの種別は、詳細に表示を行う詳細表示部を有する第1のカバーと、詳細表示部を有しない第2のカバーとを含み、制御部は、第1のカバーが装着されている場合に簡易表示部による表示を行わず、第2のカバーが装着されている場合に簡易表示部による表示を行うように制御する、ものであってよい。
その場合、第1のカバーは、装着されることにより簡易表示部を隠すカバーであってもよいし、装着されても簡易表示部を隠さないカバーであってもよい。
その場合、制御部は、第1のカバーが装着された際に簡易表示部を表示不可能な状態とする、ものであってよい。
その場合、第1のカバーは、装着されることにより簡易表示部を隠す第3のカバーと、装着されても簡易表示部を隠さない第4のカバーとを含み、制御部は、第3のカバーが装着されている場合に簡易表示部による表示を行わず、第4のカバーが装着されている場合に簡易表示部による表示を行うように制御する、ものであってよい。また、その場合、制御部は、第3のカバーが装着された際に簡易表示部を表示不可能な状態とする、ものであってよい。
図1A及び図1Bは、本実施の形態におけるエアロゾル生成装置1の全体斜視図である。図1Aは、斜め上方からの全体斜視図を示し、図1Bは、斜め下方からの全体斜視図を示す。図示するように、エアロゾル生成装置1は、フロントカバー10と、フロントカバー10を着脱可能な本体ハウジング20と、シャッタ50とを備える。フロントカバー10及び本体ハウジング20は別部材で構成される。フロントカバー10は、その表面に表示窓60と表示装置70とを備える。尚、フロントカバー10は、フロントカバーの種別毎に、外側表面が異なる模様及び色彩によるデザイン、並びに異なる素材等によって構成されるのがよい。ユーザは自らの嗜好に合う種別のフロントカバーを適宜選択すればよい。本体ハウジング20は、エアロゾル生成装置1の本体30を収容する。また、本体ハウジング20は、USB(Universal Serial Bus)タイプCのコネクタ等の外部接続端子80を備える。
表示装置70は、表示窓60に重ならない位置に設けられた、例えば液晶ディスプレイ、有機EL(Electro Luminescence)ディスプレイ等である。表示装置70は、本体30の状態情報等を文字や画像で表示する。表示装置70は、非透明ディスプレイであっても、透明ディスプレイであってもよい。
図3A及び図3Bは、エアロゾル生成装置1のフロントカバー10及び本体ハウジング20の外観図である。図3Aはフロントカバー10の内側表面の外観図を示し、図3Bは本体ハウジング20の外側表面の外観図を示す。フロントカバー10が本体ハウジング20に取り付けられる状態で、フロントカバー10の内側表面と、本体ハウジング20の外側表面とが相互に対向する。
図4は、エアロゾル生成装置1の内部構成例を示す模式図である。エアロゾル生成装置1では、例えば、吸引成分源であるエアロゾル源及び香味源を含む充填物等の香味発生基材を有するスティック型基材90が挿入される。尚、エアロゾル源は液体に限られるものではなく、固体であってもよい。挿入されたスティック型基材90は、その外周から加熱されることによって、香味を含むエアロゾルを生成する。
以上のようなエアロゾル生成装置1において、本実施の形態では、制御部300が、次の第1乃至第3の表示制御を行う。尚、以下では、フロントカバー10の通知部101として液晶ディスプレイを例にとり、本体30の通知部303としてLEDを例にとって説明する。
まず、第1の表示制御における、フロントカバー10が装着されていない場合のエアロゾル生成装置1の表示例について説明する。
図5は、この場合のエアロゾル生成装置1の表示例について示した図である。図5は、図3Bと同様に、本体ハウジング20の外側表面の外観図を示している。本体ハウジング20の外側表面には、通過孔25が設けられている。通過孔25は、本体30内に配置されたLEDからの光を通過させるものである。エアロゾル生成装置1は、図中、通過孔25内にドットハッチングを施すことで示すように、LEDによる表示を行う。ここで、LEDによる表示を行うことは、その時点で表示すべき情報がない場合には、表示すべき情報が発生するとLEDによる表示を行うようにLEDを表示可能な状態とすることを含む。例えば、エアロゾル生成装置1は、フロントカバー10が装着されていない場合、LEDのスイッチをオンにしておく。
図6は、この場合のエアロゾル生成装置1の表示例について示した図である。図6は、図1Aと同様に、エアロゾル生成装置1の斜め上方からの全体斜視図を示している。フロントカバー10の外側表面には、表示窓60が設けられている。表示窓60は、本体30内に配置されたLEDからの光を通過させるものである。エアロゾル生成装置1は、図中、表示窓60内にドットハッチングを施すことで示すように、LEDによる表示を行う。ここで、LEDによる表示を行うことは、その時点で表示すべき情報がない場合には、表示すべき情報が発生するとLEDによる表示を行うようにLEDを表示可能な状態とすることを含む。例えば、エアロゾル生成装置1は、液晶ディスプレイを有しないフロントカバー10が装着されても、LEDのスイッチをオンのままとする。
図7は、この場合のエアロゾル生成装置1の表示例について示した図である。図7も、図1Aと同様に、エアロゾル生成装置1の斜め上方からの全体斜視図を示している。フロントカバー10の外側表面には、表示窓60に重なる位置に表示装置70が設けられている。表示装置70は、ここでは、非透明な液晶ディスプレイである。つまり、表示装置70は、表示窓60を隠し、通過孔25も隠している。エアロゾル生成装置1は、図中、表示装置70内に斜線ハッチングを施すことで示すように、液晶ディスプレイによる表示を行う。一方、通過孔25が隠れており、LEDからの光を外部から視認できないため、エアロゾル生成装置1は、LEDによる表示を行わない。ここで、LEDによる表示を行わないことは、その時点で表示すべき情報がない場合には、表示すべき情報が発生してもLEDによる表示を行わないようにLEDを表示不可能な状態とすることを含む。例えば、エアロゾル生成装置1は、装着されることによりLEDを隠すフロントカバー10が装着された際に、LEDのスイッチをオフにする。
図8は、この場合のエアロゾル生成装置1の第1の表示例について示した図である。図8も、図1Aと同様に、エアロゾル生成装置1の斜め上方からの全体斜視図を示している。フロントカバー10の外側表面には、表示窓60が設けられ、表示窓60に重ならない位置に表示装置70が設けられている。表示窓60は、本体30内に配置されたLEDからの光を通過させるものであり、表示装置70は、ここでは、非透明な液晶ディスプレイである。エアロゾル生成装置1は、図中、表示装置70内に斜線ハッチングを施すことで示すように、液晶ディスプレイによる表示を行う。また、エアロゾル生成装置1は、図中、表示窓60内にドットハッチングを施すことで示すように、LEDによる表示も行う。ここで、LEDによる表示を行うことは、その時点で表示すべき情報がない場合には、表示すべき情報が発生するとLEDによる表示を行うようにLEDを表示可能な状態とすることを含む。例えば、エアロゾル生成装置1は、装着されてもLEDを隠さないフロントカバー10が装着されても、LEDのスイッチをオンのままとする。
図9は、エアロゾル生成装置1の第2の表示例について示した図である。エアロゾル生成装置1は、図8と同様、図中、表示装置70内に斜線ハッチングを施すことで示すように、液晶ディスプレイによる表示を行う。一方、第3の表示制御とは異なる表示制御となるが、エアロゾル生成装置1は、図中、表示窓60内にドットハッチングを施さないことで示すように、LEDによる表示を行わない。ここで、LEDによる表示を行わないことは、その時点で表示すべき情報がない場合には、表示すべき情報が発生してもLEDによる表示を行わないようにLEDを表示不可能な状態とすることを含む。例えば、エアロゾル生成装置1は、装着されてもLEDを隠さないフロントカバー10が装着された際に、LEDのスイッチをオフにする。
本実施の形態におけるエアロゾル生成装置1の制御部300の動作例としては、第1の動作例と、第2の動作例とが考えられる。
第1の動作例は、装着されてもLEDを隠さないフロントカバー10が装着されている場合に図8の表示を行う動作例である。換言すれば、第1の動作例は、第1の表示制御、第2の表示制御、及び第3の表示制御の全てを行う場合の動作例である。
第2の動作例は、装着されてもLEDを隠さないフロントカバー10が装着されている場合に図9の表示を行う動作例である。この第2の動作例は、液晶ディスプレイを有するフロントカバー10が装着されている場合に、液晶ディスプレイがLEDを隠すかどうかに関わらずLEDを表示しない、という動作例と捉えることができる。換言すれば、第2の動作例は、第1の表示制御及び第2の表示制御を行い、第3の表示制御を行わない場合の動作例である。
ステップ372の判定処理の内容は、図10のステップ352の判定処理の内容と同じである。
ステップ372でフロントカバー10が液晶ディスプレイを有しないと判定すれば、制御部300は、LEDを表示するように制御する(ステップ373)。例えば、制御部300は、LEDによる表示が可能となるように、LEDのスイッチをオンにする。
ステップ372でフロントカバー10が液晶ディスプレイを有すると判定すれば、制御部300は、LEDを表示しないように制御する(ステップ374)。例えば、制御部300は、LEDによる表示が不可能となるように、LEDのスイッチをオフにする。その際、制御部300は、液晶ディスプレイを表示するように制御する。
上記では、本実施の形態を加熱式たばこに適用した場合について説明したが、これには限らない。本実施の形態は、電子たばこやネブライザ等、エアロゾルを吸引するための様々なエアロゾル生成装置に適用される。また、生成される吸引成分は、エアロゾル以外にも、不可視の蒸気のような気体も含み得る。更に、本実施の形態は、エアロゾル生成装置以外の一般の電子機器に適用してもよい。
本実施の形態におけるエアロゾル生成装置1では、フロントカバー10が装着されていない場合には、LEDによる表示を行い、フロントカバー10が装着されている場合には、フロントカバー10の種別に応じて、LEDによる表示の有無を決定するようにした。これにより、本実施の形態では、フロントカバー10が装着されている場合にフロントカバー10の種別に関わらずLEDによる表示を行うことによる電力の無駄を軽減することが可能となった。
