Kungfu NANO heater launched globally: features auto-start switch and instant heating on insertion

Sichuan Tobacco Patent CN218588209U describes a self-starting heating structure for tobacco sticks: This utility model discloses a self-starting heating structure for tobacco sticks, including: a capacitive pressure sensor, which is installed on the outer wall of the tobacco cup to sense the pressure generated by the insertion of the tobacco stick into the cup; a switch unit, which is set on the side of the capacitive pressure sensor away from the tobacco cup; a drive operation button, which is slidably set within the side wall of the switch unit close to the capacitive pressure sensor, achieving the connection or disconnection of the switch unit through the cooperation of the sensor contacts of the capacitive pressure sensor and the drive operation button, thus starting or shutting down the heating of the device. This structure significantly improves the stability of self-starting heating when inserting tobacco sticks. It also effectively maintains the sealing of the triggering system, allowing reliable operation in various harsh and high-temperature environments.<\/p>

On July 26, Sichuan Zhongyan's wholly-owned subsidiary, Sichuan Sanlian New Materials Co., Ltd., held a global launch event for the Kungfu NANO heater for heated tobacco products.<\/p>

• NANO, Kungfu self-starting device, instant heating upon insertion:<\/p><\/li>

• Equipped with hot and cold start temperature control for precise temperature management;<\/p><\/li>

• High-performance battery, providing significant energy in a compact size, capable of handling 20 sticks at once;<\/p><\/li>

• Metal needle-type heating element, advanced technologies such as large heating area and rapid heating rate.<\/p><\/li>

As can be seen, in addition to continuous improvements in heating technology, battery life, and precise temperature control, the Kungfu NANO heater also introduces a new technological application: a mechanical micro-switch.<\/p>

This switch allows the device to self-start as soon as the heated tobacco stick is inserted, whereas traditional heaters typically require a button press to start heating after inserting the tobacco stick.<\/p>

From the introduction at its launch event, the NANO is an entry-level HNB heater, which can be understood as a preparation to broaden the new user base.<\/p>

The mechanical micro-switch is similar to the mouthpiece of an e-cigarette, emphasizing the self-starting feature, which indeed brings a new user experience.

In addition to self-starting, the device also considers power-off operations, such as removing the lid to cut off power; for instance, if you are in the middle of use and need to attend to something, simply removing the lid will stop the heating.<\/p>

Furthermore, addressing some issues related to the use of HNB heaters, such as cleaning difficulties, the Kungfu NANO heater adopts a detachable self-cleaning structure.

It must be said that Sichuan Tobacco's new technological applications for HNB heaters are evolving rapidly, with innovations such as titanium steel alloy heating plates, graphite porous heating elements, metal needle-type heating elements, pressure-sensitive buttons, non-contact airflow heating, and modular charging designs, all of which consider user experience significantly.
