Cigarette filling packed body and electronic cigarette cartridge

Abstract

A cigarette filling packed body and an electronic cigarette cartridge provide a filled packing while ensuring excellent airflow within the cigarette filling packed body. Elongated cigarette fillings are packed into a bundle shape with an outer peripheral portion wrapped around by a sheet-shaped packaging body. Each filling is formed such that, in a cross section orthogonal to the long-side direction, the dimension in the long-side direction is longer than the dimension in the short-side direction. Each of the cigarette fillings in an outermost peripheral portion are in contact with the packaging body and have a long-side direction oriented following the circumferential direction. The cigarette fillings are oriented particularly to enhance air flow.

1 . An electronic cigarette cartridge, comprising:
 a tobacco filling accumulation, in which said long tobacco fillings are in a bundle;   a support member;   a mouthpiece; and   a sheet-like wrapping material, wherein
 said tobacco filling accumulation, said support member and said mouthpiece are arranged along a longitudinal direction and wound with said sheet-like wrapping material to form a single unit; 
 a longitudinal direction of said tobacco filling coincides with a longitudinal direction of said electronic cigarette cartridge; 
 a direction of a long side in a cross section orthogonal to said longitudinal direction is defined as a long side direction; 
 a direction of a short side in a cross section orthogonal to said longitudinal direction is defined as a short side direction; 
 dimensions of said cigarette filling in said longitudinal direction, said long side direction, and said short side direction are defined as said longitudinal dimension, said long side dimension, and said short side dimension, respectively; 
 a side surface having said long side dimension and said long side dimension as said dimension of each side is defined as a long side surface; 
 a side surface having said long side dimension and said short side dimension as said dimension of each side is defined as a short side surface; 
 a surface having said long side dimension and said short side dimension as said dimension of each side is an end surface; and 
 said tobacco fillings are arranged so that said respective tobacco fillings are aligned in said longitudinal direction with the other tobacco fillings. 
   
     
     
         2 . The electronic cigarette cartridge as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein:
 said tobacco fillings are arranged such that said longitudinal direction is aligned with a length of said electronic cigarette cartridge.   
     
     
         3 . The electronic cigarette cartridge as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein:
 said tobacco fillings have a dimension in said longitudinal direction longer than a dimension in said short side direction in a cross-section perpendicular to said longitudinal direction.   
     
     
         4 . An electronic cigarette cartridge as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein:
 said support member has a channel for distributing airflow in the center.   
     
     
         5 . An electronic cigarette cartridge as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein:
 a cooling member is provided between said support member and said mouthpiece.
