Nevertheless, in these elements, necessary for inhalation aerosol, time and frequency for reduction of residual values often considerably differ due to characteristics and filled with vessels elements. Consequently, for user difficult to reduce residual value multiple of these elements, respectively, in appropriate time.

[9]

[0006] As of this problem, PTL 2 discloses a technology for associating time replacement of the first cartridge, including source aerosol, and time of the second replacement cartridge, including source of aroma. Nevertheless, by still - there is reserve for improvement in advanced, order to make a user to easily understand the necessity of restoring multiple elements, required for inhalation, at which time and frequency for reduction of residual values differ considerably.

[10]

[0007] In ingalyatornom device, such as total electronic cigarette or nebulizer, which provides perception at inhalation of using aerosol source for forming aerosol and source of aroma for of aroma to the aerosol, sufficient perception at inhalation of can not be provided to the user, if not are controlled by appropriately residual value of aerosol source and source of aroma. Nevertheless, in source aerosol and aroma source, time and frequency for reduction of residual values differ considerably. Consequently, difficult, respectively, appropriately control residual values of these elements.

[11]

[0008] As of this problem PTL 2 discloses a technology for reducing load for control residual values of these elements by means of associating time replacement of the first cartridge, including source aerosol and replacement of time of the second cartridge, including source of aroma. Additionally, PTL 2 also discloses technology to reduce load for control of residual values of these elements similar manner by means of informing relative to times of replacement of the first cartridge and the second cartridge. Nevertheless, by still - there is reserve for improvement in, that distinguish difficult, should replaced only the second cartridge, or also should replaced the first cartridge in time replacement of these elements. Also along still - there is reserve for improving, in time replacement of these elements, in, as replacement of time should be informed, to encourage user to reduce residual value of multiple elements so, that user may continuously inhale.

[116]

[0094] Fig.. 1B is aimed unit - circuit sign ingalyatornogo device 100 [v100 according to modification of this invention opening substance.

[117]

[0095] As shown shown in drawing, ingalyatornoe device 100 [v100 includes a third unit 126 in addition to features, which includes ingalyatornoe device 100A by fig.. 1A. Third unit 126 may include source 128 aroma. As coded, if ingalyatornoe device 100 [v100 is a electronic cigarette, source 128 aroma may include aromatic ingredients, contained in tobacco. As illustrated shown in drawing, duct 121 for aerosol is from the second unit 104 in the third unit 126. Part 122 with hole for drawing of is connected in third unit 126.

[118]

[0096] Source 128 aroma is a component for of aroma to the aerosol. Source 128 aroma is located in the middle of the duct 121 for aerosol. Mixed fluid medium from aerosol and air (further in this document, mixed fluid medium may be called simply "with aerosol" in some cases), formed by means of spraying part 118, flows through duct 121 for aerosol in part 122 with hole for drawing of. So, source 128 aroma is provided downstream from the spraying part 118 relative to the flow of aerosol. Other words, source 128 aroma is located closer to part 122 with hole for drawing of in the flow of the 121 for aerosol, than to spraying part 118. Respectively, aerosol, formed by means of spraying part 118, passes through source 128 aroma and then reaches part 122 with hole for drawing of. Addition of, as aerosol passes through source 128 aroma, to the aerosol attach to aromatic ingredients, contained in source 128 aroma. As coded, if ingalyatornoe device 100 [v100 is a electronic cigarette, source 128 aroma can extracted from tobacco, such as skroshennyi tobacco, or treated product, obtained by forming tobacco material in the form of macroparticles, in the form of sheets or in the form of powder. Source 128 aroma can also extracted, different from tobacco, produced plants, different from tobacco (for example, from mint, grass and T. d.). As coded, source 128 aroma contains components based on nicotine. Source 128 aroma can contain ingredients bottles, such as menthol. In addition to source 128 aroma, reservoir 116 can also have substance, containing aromatic ingredients. For example, ingalyatornoe device 100 [v100 can to hold aromatic substance, extracted from tobacco, in source 128 aroma, and can be made with contain aromatic substance, which not are extracted from tobacco, in reservoir 116.

[119]

[0097] By means of room part 122 with hole for drawing of in the mouth for inhalation, the user can admit air, containing aerosol given flavour with, in its mouth.

[120]

[0098] Controller 106 is made for control ingalyatornymi devices 100A and 100 [v100 (which can further collectively mentioned as "ingalyatornogo device 100") according to versions of this invention opening substance in various methods. Below specifically invention describes each version of realisation.

[121]

[0099] The first version of realisation

[122]

Figure 2 is unit - circuit sequence of operations of the method, which shows base mode of operation ingalyatornogo device 100 according to the first version of this invention opening substance. In below the above description, controller 106 is described is a performing all stages, shown on Figure 2. nevertheless, it should be mentioned, that some stages by Figure 2 can be made by means of other components in ingalyatornom device 100.

[123]

[0100] At the stage of 202, controller 106 detects or estimates reservoir elements ingalyatornogo device 100. Here, "element" means component, which can enable formation of aerosol or aerosol with given flavour with consumption by means of accumulated reservoir. As coded, in case of electronic cigarette, having configuration ingalyatornogo device 100A, shown on fig.. 1A, the first unit 102 may be provided as module holding the battery, which includes accumulator 110, while the second unit 104 can be provided as cartridge, which includes reservoir 116. In this case, module holding the battery (or accumulator 110) and cartridge (or reservoir 116) above correspond to said "elements". Here, "reservoir" means residual value of charge of the accumulator 110, residual quantity aerosol source, included in the reservoir 116, and T. U. The other coded, in case of electronic cigarette, having configuration ingalyatornogo device 100 [v100, shown on fig.. 1B, the first unit 102 may be provided as module holding the battery, which includes accumulator 110, the second unit 104 can be provided as cartridge, which includes reservoir 116, and third unit 126 can be provided as capsule, which includes source 128 aroma. In this case, module holding the battery (or accumulator 110), cartridge (or reservoir 116) and capsule (or source 128 aroma) correspond to "elements". Here, "reservoir" means residual value of storage battery 110, residual value of source of aerosol in reservoir 116, residual value of aromatic ingredients, connected in the source 128 aroma, residual value of source of aerosol and T. U. Volume, weight and T. d. source 12 8 aroma and reservoir 116 can increase in accordance with use of ingalyatornogo device 100. Respectively, it should be mentioned, that volume, weight and T. d. source 128 aroma and reservoir 116 optionally correspond to "reservoir".

[124]

[0101] Reservoir members may be detectable or assessed by means of various methods. In one example, sensor 112 may be a weight sensor. In this case, controller 106 may detect, using sensor 112, weight element (for example, weight of liquid STI or tobacco in case, if source aerosol, connected reservoir 116, is a liquid st or tobacco) and to determine weight, which detected, as reservoir of this element. In another example, sensor 112 can of the device detection of surface level of liquid STI (aerosol source, included in the reservoir 116, and T. U.). In this case, controller 106 may detect, using sensor 112, surface level of liquid STI element and evaluate reservoir of this element based on surface level of liquid STI, which detected. In another example, storage device 114 can preserve cumulative value of time power supply for spraying part 118. In this case, controller 106 can evaluate reservoir element (for example, residual value of source of aerosol, included in the reservoir 116, residual value of aromatic ingredients tobacco, residual value of aromatic ingredients, contained in source 128 aroma and T. U.) based on cumulative time power supply, produced from storage 114. In another example, storage device 114 can preserve number of vdykhanii, which user performs ingalyatornom device 100 ("tie" in case of electronic cigarette). In this case, controller 106 can evaluate reservoir element based on number of vdykhanii, produced from storage 114. In another example, storage device 114 can preserve data relative to history heating spraying part 118. In this case, controller 106 can evaluate reservoir element based on data, obtained from storage 114. In another example, storage device 114 can preserve data relative to the charge state (SOC) storage battery 110, cumulative values of current and/or voltage. Sensor 112 can detect these values. In this case, controller 106 may detect or evaluate reservoir elements (in particular, storage battery 110) based on these data fragments.

[125]

[0102] At the stage of 204, controller 106 then determines, below or not reservoir element, which detected or estimated on the stage 202, threshold value. Threshold value can be in memory 114, or controller 106 can obtain threshold value from storage 114. If capacity is not less than the threshold value ("no" at the stage of 204), treatment is returned to a stage before stage 202. If vessel less than the threshold value ("Da" at the stage of 204), treatment passes stage to stage 206.

[126]

[0103] At the stage of 206, controller 106 detects preset variable. In one example, if sensor 112 includes a pressure sensor, which detects pressure separately in air inlet duct 120 and/or duct 121 for aerosol, then preliminarily preset variable may be a pressure. In another example, if sensor 112 includes a flow rate sensor, which detects consumption separately in air inlet duct 120 and/or duct 121 for aerosol instead of pressure in circuits, preliminarily preset variable may be a consumption of. In another example, if ingalyatornoe device 100 includes button (not shown) for actuation, then preliminarily preset variable may be a mechanical stress, current value and T. U ., which indicates the fact, button consumer.

[127]

[0104] It should be mentioned, that sensor 112 may include several sensors, the, at least, two of transducers can to detect various physical value. At the stage of 202, controller 106 may use part of the sensors, to detect or evaluate reservoir element ingalyatornogo device 100. Additionally, at the stage of 206, controller 106 may use other part of sensors for, to detect preset variable.

[128]

[0105] At the stage of 208, controller 106 then determines, satisfies or not variable, which detected at the stage of 206, previously specified condition. Here, a predetermined condition may be given as condition, required for, that of generation of a request for formation of aerosol in ingalyatornom device 100. In one example, if variable is a pressure or flow rate, a predetermined condition may be in the fact, that pressure or flow rate is detected frames of predetermined duration. In another example, if variable is a pressure or flow rate, a predetermined condition may be in the fact, that is detected pressure or flow rate, having absolute value, exceeding a predetermined value. Should be take into account, which also in the versions, in which variable is a value, different from pressure, different conditions may be disclosed as preliminary specified condition. If variable, which detected, not satisfies desired condition ("no" at the stage of 208), then treatment is returned to a stage

[129]

before stage 206. If variable, which detected, if variable

[130]

satisfies desired condition ("Da" at the stage of 208), then treatment passes stage to stage 210.

[131]

[0106] At the stage 210, controller 106 performs a predetermined notification to the user (T. E. vdykhayushchemuingalyatornogo device 100). For example, controller 106 instructs part 108 notification function in the first mode, having predetermined method. In one example, if part 108 notification includes emitting diode, controller 106 can instruct emitting operate using defined method (for example, flickering). In another example, if part 108 notification includes display, controller 106 may instruct the display operate so, order to provide predetermined indicator, indicating the fact, that is required replacement of, filling, charge and T. d. elements (which in the further referred "replacement and T. d ." as required). The other coded, if part 108 notification includes dynamic loudspeaker, controller 106 can instruct the dynamics operate so, that to eliminate predetermined sound.

[132]

[0107] Figure 3 is unit - circuit sequence of operations of the method, specifically disclosed an example of operation of ingalyatornogo device 100 according to this version. In below the above description, controller 106 is described is a performing all stages, shown on Figure 3. nevertheless, it should be mentioned, that some stages by Figure 3 may be made by means of other components in ingalyatornom device 100. Here, explanations are provided provided, that ingalyatornoe device has signs ingalyatornogo device 100 [v100, shown on fig.. 1B, and third unit 126 (including source 128 aroma) ingalyatornogo device 100 [v100 is a "element", which invention describes relative to Figure 2. nevertheless, versions of this invention opening substance not limited such configuration, and it should be mentioned, that the first unit 102 (or accumulator 110) and the second unit of 104 (or reservoir 116) can represent "element".

[133]

[0108] Treatment starts with stages 302. At the stage of 302, controller 106 then determines, detected or not beginning of tightening ingalyatornogo device 100 by user. As coded, if sensor 112 includes a sensor pressure or flow rate sensor, controller 106 may determine then, that lagging initiated, when pressure or flow rate, obtained from sensor 112, exceeds a predetermined value. Controller 106 also may determine then, that lagging initiated, when duration, for which pressure is detected by means of a sensor 112, exceeds a predetermined duration. In another example, controller 106 may determine then, that lagging initiated, when ingalyatornoe device 100 includes beginning of button, and the button of consumer. If beginning of tightening not is detected ("no" at the stage of 302), treatment is returned to a stage before stage 302. If beginning of tightening detected ("Da" at the stage of 302), then treatment passes stage to stage 304.

[134]

[0109] At the stage of 304, controller 106 then determines, exceeds or not voltage storage battery 110 off voltage of discharge (for example, 3.2 in). Voltage storage battery 110 equal to or less than cutoff voltage discharge ("no" at the stage of 304), treatment passes stage to stage 306. At the stage of 306, controller 106 instructs part 108 notification function the third method. In one example, if part 108 notification includes light emitting diode, the third method may include coaching emitting blinking red color. The other side, if voltage storage battery 110 exceeds off voltage of discharge ("Da" at the stage of 304), treatment passes stage to stage 308.

[135]

[It] at the stage of 308, controller 106 then determines, equal to or less than or not voltage storage battery 110 value, obtained by means of subtraction of preliminarily determined value and from voltage of complete charge of. Voltage storage battery 110 not equal to or less than "voltage of complete charge of - and" ("no" at the stage of 308), interconnection is a "voltage of complete charge of - and < voltage storage battery < voltage of complete charge of". In this moment, treatment passes stage to stage 310. At the stage of 310, controller 106 power to in spraying part 118 by means of control of constant power. For example, controller 106 may be used shirotnoimpulsnuyu modulation (the PWM) for power, supplied from storage battery 110 in spraying part 118, and may adjusted pulse width in compliance with change of output voltage storage battery 110 so, that value of power, fed spraying part 118, becomes constant. It should be mentioned, that controller 106 can preserves the control with frequency - pulse modulation (there is also) instead of control with width - pulse modulation (the PWM). The other side, if voltage storage battery 110 equal to or less than "voltage of complete charge of - and" ("Da" at the stage of 308), treatment passes stage to stage 312. At the stage of 312, controller 106 does not width - pulse modulation for power from accumulator 110 and power to in spraying part 118 off impulsov=10 0%.

[136]

[0111] Treatment passes stage to stage 314, and controller 106 instructs part 108 notification function in the second mode. In one example, if part 108 notification includes emitting diode, controller 106 can instruct radial devices emitting blue color.

[137]

[0112] Treatment passes stage to stage 316, and controller 106 sets time of inhalation (t ofL ), which may be in memorizing device 114, controller 106 and T. d ., equal to 0.

[138]

[0113] Treatment passes stage to stage 318, and controller 106 waits the, until a predetermined time client terminal not will expire, and sets t ofL equal to " t ofL=TL + Client terminal ".

[139]

[0114] Treatment passes stage to stage 320, and controller 106 then determines, detected or not completion of tightening. In one example, if sensor 112 includes pressure sensor, controller 106 may determine then, that lagging completed, when pressure, obtained from sensor 112, becomes equal to or smaller than predetermined value. When completion of tightening detected ("Da" at the stage of 320), treatment passes stage to stage 324. When completion of tightening not is detected ("no" at the stage of 320), treatment passes stage to stage 322, and controller 106 then determines, is equal to or above or not t ofL preliminarily determined upper limit time. If t ofL is not equal to or above preliminarily determined upper limit time ("no" at the stage of 322), treatment is returned to a stage before stage 318. If t ofL is equal to or above preliminarily determined upper limit time ("Da" at the stage of 322), treatment passes stage to stage 324.

[140]

[0115] At the stage of 324, controller 106 stops power supply in spraying part 118, for example, by means of control of switch, provided in electric circuit, connecting accumulator 110 and spraying part 118.

[141]

[0116] Treatment passes stage to stage 326, and controller 106 stops functioning part 108 notification. In one example, controller 106 off the light emitting diode part 108 notification, which glows blue color.

[142]

[0117] It should be mentioned, that if completion of tightening not is detected ("no" at the stage of 320), and tL is equal to or above preliminarily determined upper limit time ("Da" at the stage of 322), controller 106 can continue functioning part 108 notification in the second mode (for example, in mode during normal inhalation) the, until completion of tightening not is detected after the, as for power in spraying part 118 stopped at the stage of 324. After that, at the stage of 326, controller 106 stops functioning part 108 notification. Since part 108 notification continues in the second mode provided, that lagging continues, possibility to stop formation of aerosol and suppress worsening user perception, which may cause the user sense of strangeness.

[143]

[0118] Treatment passes stage to stage 328, and controller 106 sets cumulative time TA , which can be in memorizing device 114, controller 106 and T. d ., equal to " t ofA=TA + T OFL ".

[144]

[0119] Treatment passes stage to stage 330. Stage 330 is an example stages 204 by Figure 2. at the stage of 330, controller 106 then determines, exceeds or not TA previously determined threshold time. Threshold time can be given as cumulative time inhalation on ingalyatornom device 100 [v100, which is evaluated the, fact that the container (in this example, residual value of aromatic ingredients, contained in source 128 aroma) element ingalyatornogo device 100 [v100 (in this example, the third unit 126 or source of 128 aroma), value below value, necessary for formation of the aerosol with sufficient given flavour with. Threshold time can be preset in memory 114 and T. d.

[145]

[0120] If TA is equal to or less than the threshold time ("no" at the stage of 330), treatment is returned to a stage before stage 302. If TA exceeds the threshold time ("Da" at the stage of 330), treatment passes stage to stage 332.

[146]

[0121] Stages 332 and/or 334 are an example stages 208 by Figure 2. at the stage of 332, controller 106 then determines, detected or not beginning of tightening. In one example, if sensor 112 includes a sensor pressure or flow rate sensor, controller 106 may determine then, that lagging initiated, when pressure or flow rate, obtained from sensor 112, has absolute value, exceeding a predetermined value.

[147]

[0122] If beginning of tightening not is detected ("no" at the stage of 332), treatment is returned to a stage before stage 332. In particular, controller 106 waits detecting beginning of tightening. If beginning of tightening detected ("Da" at the stage of 332), treatment passes stage to stage 334.

[148]

[0123] At the stage of 334, controller 106 then determines, continues or not lagging during preliminarily determined period of time (for example, one s). Predetermined period of time can be in memory 114. If lagging not continues during preliminarily determined period of time ("no" at the stage of 334), treatment is returned to a stage before stage 332. If lagging continues during preliminarily determined period of time ("Da" at the stage of 334), treatment passes stage to stage 33 b. By means of stage of 334, possibility to prevent the subsequent processes, even when erroneously is determined then, that beginning of tightening detected at the stage of 332 of due to background noise.

[149]

[0124] Both process at stages of 332 and 334 can be made, and only any of them may be made.

[150]

[0125] Since controller 106 is made for perform stages 332 and 334, possibility of instruct part 108 notification function in the first mode based on not only excess cumulative time, but also and subsequent detection of tightening. Respectively, since part 108 notification functions in the first mode in the moment of time, in which user tries smoke or perform a certain action of this type using ingalyatornogo device 100, user more simpler observed the fact, that element, having small reservoir, should replaced.

[151]

[0126] At the stage of 336, controller 106 of function of power supply in spraying part 118. It should be mentioned, process at the stage of 336 may be made between stage 330 and stage of 332.

[152]

Treatment passes stage to stage 338, and controller 106 instructs part 108 notification function in the first mode. Since controller 106 of function of power supply in spraying part 118 at instructing part 108 notification function in the first mode, possibility to stop formation of aerosol. For termination of forming aerosol, controller 106 may disconnect sensor 112 or break circuit supplying power in spraying part 118. Attention since user draws by means of stopping forming aerosol, user should more simpler detect the fact, that replacement and T. d. element is required. In addition, since it can be to prevent formation of incomplete aerosol, when reservoir element is insufficient, possibility to prevent worsening of perception at inhalation of user. In one example, if part 108 notification is a light emitting diode, the first mode may include coaching emitting blink blue color. Controller 106 can instruct the part 108 notification function for relative to long time (for example, 40 seconds) so, that user may detect the fact, fact that the container element is insufficient.

[153]

[0127] At the stage of 338, conditions stages 332 and 334, which are conditions for debriefing part 108 notification function in the first mode, may be more stringent, than condition stages 302, which is a condition for debriefing part 108 notification function in the second mode at the stage of 314. Alternatively, probability, conditions that stages 332 and 334 are met, may be lower probability of the, that condition stages 302 is met. For example, above said preliminarily preset value, used when determining at the stage of 334, may exceed a predetermined value, used when determining at the stage of 302. By performing above described stages 334, by means of stages 332 and 334, at least, extension of tightening for higher than the said predetermined time at the stage of 334 is required, so that duration, used when determining tightening at stages of 332 and 334, which is a condition for debriefing part 108 notification function in the first mode at the stage of 338, may exceed duration, which is used when determining at the stage of 302, which is a condition for debriefing part 108 notification function in the second mode at the stage of 314. Based on these signs, during normal inhalation, possibility of improve reaction in form of forming aerosol on tightening action user and provide perception at inhalation of without feeling strangeness. In addition, possibility to prevent erroneous interpretation of the operation ingalyatornogo device 100 in normal mode due to background noise, when part 108 notification should function in the first mode. In addition, aerosol is not formed, even when lagging is made in for prolonged time, than period of time in time of power supply in spraying part 118, and notification is made on stage 338 after that, so that possibility for user detect the fact, that reduction of vessel should be in state, in which user doubted tangent operation ingalyatornogo device 100, in other words, in the state of, in which user focuses on the ingalyatornom device 100.

[154]

[0128] If part 108 notification includes light-emitting element, such as light emitting diode, in the first mode at the stage of 338 and the second mode at the stage of 314, color light radiation light-emitting element can be identical. For example, both color radiation may be blue. In this moment, in the first mode and the second mode, methods of light radiation by means of light-emitting element can differ. For example, light-emitting element can blink in the first mode and can continuously radial devices in the second mode. In addition, in another example, color light radiation light-emitting element may differ between the first and second mode, while methods of light radiation by means of light-emitting element can be identical in both of these modes. Additionally, in another example, color light radiation and methods of light radiation light-emitting element may differ between the first and second mode. Based on these signs, when light-emitting element performs operation, differs from operation in normal state, the user can to recognize then, that a certain abnormality of, associated with inhalation, occurs, so that encourage more simpler user perform replacement and T. d. element.

[155]

[0129] Treatment passes stage to stage 340, and controller 106 removes prohibition on power supply in spraying part 118. In this moment, controller 106 can evaluate the, fact that the container element returned to pre-determined value (for example, to the value, sufficient for forming aerosol or aerosol with given flavour with). Since notification, for which low is possibly, that users not turned attention, already is made by means of part 108 notification, is possibly, that replacement and T. d. is made for element, reservoir of which is insufficient after completion of functioning part 108 notification in the first mode. As a result, demand in using control logic and devices for detection of planting or switching is excluded, which should be used only for the purpose of detection the, is made or not replacement and T. d. element. In addition, accuracy of cumulative time and counting number of substitutions can increase.

[156]

[0130] Treatment passes stage to stage 342, and controller 106 counts number of times (n-), when reservoir element returns to pre-determined value. N can be in memory 114. Controller 106 may gradually increase n by 1. based on this sign, possibility of the number of substitutions described above element, that is a parameter, useful in evaluation of service life ingalyatornogo device 100, degree of wear other elements and T. U. without using control logic and devices for detection of planting or switching, which should be used only for the purpose of detection the, is made or not replacement and T. d. element. It should be mentioned, N-not always should be an integer, and instead, can be used actual number of. In addition, when n-should ensuing with the specific value, dimension of the n can be percentage fraction of (%).

[157]

[0131] Treatment passes stage to stage 344, and controller 106 drops shaped-charge time TA (which is set equal to 0). Treatment is returned to a stage before stage 302.

[158]

[0132] As described relative to fig.. 1A and 1B, ingalyatornoe device 100 may include multiple elements. For example, ingalyatornoe device 100A includes, as elements, the first unit 102 (for example, module holding the battery) (or accumulator 110) and the second unit of 104 (for example, cartridge) (or reservoir 116). Ingalyatornoe device 100 [v100 additionally includes a third unit 126 (for example, capsule) (or source 128 aroma) as its element. Controller 106 may be used treatment, shown on fig.. 2, and treatment stages 328 - 344 by Figure 3 only relative to one of multiple elements, for which operation for return of reservoir considered one element in state, in which it has reservoir, required for the, to continuously to form aerosol or aerosol given flavour with, should be made more frequently. For example, in example by fig.. 1A, if frequency of the second replacement unit 104 (or reservoir 116) higher than frequency charge storage battery 110 in the first unit 102, controller 106 can be made for instruct part 108 notification function in the first mode only, when tank of the second unit 104 is less than predetermined threshold value ("Da" at the stage of 204), and variable (for example, pressure or flow rate, detected by means of a sensor 112) satisfies desired condition for request for forming aerosol or aerosol with given flavour with ("Da" at the stage of 208). Similarly, in example by fig.. 1B, when the third unit 126 (or source 128 aroma) should replaced more frequently, than the first unit 102 and the second unit of 104, controller 106 may be used machining Figure 2 only relative to the third unit 12 6. Based on this sign, when part 108 performs notification operation, differs from operation in normal state, the user can to recognize then, determined that operation is necessary for element, with maximum frequency of replacement of relative to inhalation, so that becomes more simpler to encourage user perform replacement and T. d. element.

[159]

[0133] As described relative to fig.. 3, controller 106 can be made for instruct part 108 notification function in multiple modes, including the first mode (first, second and third methods). In this case, controller 106 can instruct the part 108 notification function for maximum period of time in the first mode of these modes. Based on this sign, operation part 108 notification for request for replacement and T. d. element becomes larger, than time of operation of part 108 notification in other situations so, that possibility to reduce probability, that user not drew attention on the necessity of replacement and T. d. element.

[160]

[0134] If ingalyatornoe device 100 includes multiple elements, controller 106 can be made for suspend functioning part 108 notification, when, at least, one element they will take out from ingalyatornogo device 100. For example, if ingalyatornoe device has signs ingalyatornogo device 100A, shown on fig.. 1A, and the second unit of 104 is vynimaemym, in this case the controller 106 may suspend functioning part 108 notification, when the second unit 104 they will take out. Similarly, if ingalyatornoe device has signs ingalyatornogo device 100 [v100, shown on fig.. 1B, and the second unit of 104 and third unit 126 are taken out, in this case the controller 106 may suspend functioning part 108 notification, when one or both of these units removed. In this state, in which, at least, one element they will take out from ingalyatornogo device 100, this state can be considered as state, in which user already recognize notification part 108 notification. Consequently, when functioning part 108 notification suspended, costly power consumption storage battery 110 can be excluded.

[161]

[0135] It should be mentioned, that controller 106 may not include part stages, shown on the fig.. 3, order or part of stages can modified. For example, then, detected or not beginning of tightening, may not be determined on stage 302 to the, as part of notification is set for the third function by the method on the stage 306. Other words, controller can perform stage 302 after the, as controller at the stage of 304 then determines, equal to or less than or not voltage storage battery 110 cutoff voltage discharge. In this version, should be clearly take into account, that condition, which should be met, in order to instruct the part 108 notification function the third by relative to storage battery 110 at the stage 306, includes only one such requirement, that voltage storage battery 110 should be equal to or less than voltage of off discharge.

[162]

[0136] Alternatively, controller 106 can always to continue the determining stage 304 in processes on and after the stage of 302. So, in process of performance of stages 308 - 344, when voltage storage battery 110, which detects controller 106, becomes equal to or smaller than voltage off discharge ("Da" at the stage of 304), in this case the stage 306 is as treatment of interruption, and controller 106 instructs part 108 notification function the third method. In this version, condition, which should be met for debriefing part 108 notification function the third by relative to storage battery 110 at the stage 306, includes the requirement, initiated or not detection of tightening at the stage of 302. Nevertheless, this requirement is relatively moderate, avoided only then, that stage 304 should be met on any from stages after the, as "Da" obtained by determining at the stage of 302. Opposite to, condition, which should be met, in order to instruct the part 108 notification function in the first mode at the stage of 338, includes such relative to strict requirement, that controller 106 should to obtain "Da" by means of its of determining relative to stages 332 and 334 immediately after the, as controller 106 at the stage of 330 then determines, that cumulative time TA exceeds previously determined threshold time ("Da" at the stage of 330). Other words, stage 306 is a process, which can be made during formation of aerosol, while stage 338 is a process, which can not be met during formation of aerosol.

[163]

[0137] In above given explanations, the first version of this invention opening substance is described as ingalyatornogo device, having signs, shown on fig.. 1A or 1B, and method, shown on Figure 2 or 3. nevertheless, should be take into account, the present that opening of substance, when by means of processor, can be realized as a program, which instructs processor to method, shown on Figure 2 or 3, or as machine-readable carrier data storage, retaining identical program.

[164]

[0138] The second version of

[165]

Figure 4 is unit - circuit sequence of operations of the method, which shows base mode of operation ingalyatornogo device 100 according to the second version of this invention opening substance. In below the above description, controller 106 is described is a performing all stages, shown on Figure 4. nevertheless, it should be mentioned, that some stages by Figure 4 may be made by means of another component in ingalyatornom device 100.

[166]

[0139] Treatment starts with stages 402, and controller 106 detects or estimates reservoir corresponding elements from multiple elements ingalyatornogo device 100. The meanings of terms "element" and "reservoir" already explained relative to the first versions of realization. In this version, ingalyatornoe device 100 includes multiple elements. For example, ingalyatornoe device 100A, shown on fig.. 1A, has as their elements the first unit 102 (for example, module holding the battery) (or accumulator 110) and the second unit of 104 (for example, cartridge) (or reservoir 116). Ingalyatornoe device 100 [v100, shown on fig.. 1B, has the third unit 126 (for example, capsule) (or source 128 aroma) as its element in addition to these two elements. As already described is relative to the first versions of realization, vessel members may be detectable or assessed by means of various methods. Reservoir, at least, one element from multiple elements (for example, storage battery 110 first unit 102) can be detected or assessed by means of method, differing from method for tank other element from multiple elements (for example, third unit 126 (capsule)). In addition, reservoir, at least, one element from multiple elements can be detected or assessed by means of method, identical method, at least, for one of various element from multiple elements. For example, as reservoir capsule 126, so and reservoir cartridge 104 can be detected or assessed based on cumulative time power supply for spraying part 118 or cumulative power value. In addition, as reservoir storage battery 110, so and reservoir cartridge 104 can be detected or assessed based on cumulative values of current.

[167]

[0140] Treatment passes stage to stage 404. At the stage of 404, controller 106 then determines, met or not a predetermined condition, referred for element, which includes a such requirement, fact that the container element, detected or appraised at the stage 402, should be equal or less than the threshold value, indicated for element. Threshold value and a predetermined condition, points requiring for each element, can be in memorizing device 114 in association with element. Controller 106 can obtain threshold value and a predetermined condition from storage 114. Relative to, at least, one element from multiple elements, above the described a predetermined condition may include other requirements in addition to such demand, fact that the container element should be equal or less than the threshold value. For example, relative to, at least, one element, a predetermined condition may additionally include such requirement, preliminarily preset variable, detected in ingalyatornom device 100, should meet pre-determined demand. In one example, if sensor 112 is a pressure sensor, which detects pressure, or flow rate sensor, which detects consumption separately in air inlet duct 120 and/or duct 121 for aerosol, preliminarily preset variable may be a pressure or flow rate. In another example, if ingalyatornoe device 100 includes button (not shown) for actuation, then preliminarily preset variable may be a mechanical stress, current value and T. U ., which indicates the fact, button consumer.

[168]

[0141] If a predetermined condition is not met ("no" at the stage of 404), treatment is returned to a stage before stage 402. If a predetermined condition is met ("Da" at the stage of 404), treatment passes stage to stage 406. At the stage 406, controller 106 performs a predetermined notification to the user (T. E. vdykhayushchemuingalyatornogo device 100). For example, controller 106 instructs part 108 notification function using defined method. In one example, if a predetermined condition, referred for the first unit 102 (or storage battery 110), is met, controller 106 can instruct the part 108 notification function specific method. In another example, if a predetermined condition, referred for the second unit 104 (or reservoir 116), is met, controller 106 can instruct the part 108 notification function by other method. Additionally, in another example, if a predetermined condition, referred for the third unit 126 (or source of 128 aroma), is met, controller 106 can instruct the part 108 notification function one more by other method. Notification relative to stages 406 is for, to notify the user with respect to the, that is required replacement of, filling, charge and T. d. elements (which in the further referred "replacement and T. d ." as required).

[169]

[0142]Apredetermined condition, determined on stage 402, becomes more strict for one of multiple elements, which includes ingalyatornoe device 100, if it should be made more frequently operation for return of reservoir considered one element in state, in which it has reservoir, required for the, to continuously to form aerosol or aerosol given flavour with (which can further collectively mentioned as "aerosol"). In one example, a predetermined condition with less probability should be met for one element, for which operation should be made more frequently, from elements. In another example, a predetermined condition includes greater number requirements for one from elements, for which operation should be made more frequently. For example, if ingalyatornoe device has signs ingalyatornogo device 100A, shown on fig.. 1A, and frequency of the second replacement unit 104 (or reservoir 116) higher than frequency charge storage battery 110 in the first unit 102, in this case a predetermined condition, referred for the second unit 104, is more strict, than a predetermined condition, referred for storage battery 110 first unit 102. In addition, if ingalyatornoe device has signs ingalyatornogo device 100 [v100, shown on fig.. 1B, and frequency of replacement of third unit 126 (or source of 128 aroma) is maximum, and frequency of the second replacement unit 104 is the second maximum, and frequency of charge of the accumulator 110 first unit 102 is minimum, in this case a predetermined condition, referred for the third unit 126, may be way strict, a predetermined condition, referred for the second unit 104, may be second strict way, and a predetermined condition, referred for storage battery 110 first unit 102, can be way moderate. Additionally, in configuration in fig.. 1B, a predetermined condition may be disclosed only for storage battery 110 first unit 102 and third unit 126, while condition may not be disclosed for the second unit 104. In this case, at the stage of 402, only reservoir storage battery 110 and reservoir of the third unit 126 detected or are evaluated, and, at the stage of 404, only a predetermined condition, referred for storage battery 110 and third unit 126, is determined. If frequency of replacement of third unit 126 higher than frequency charge storage battery 110 first unit 102, condition, referred for the third unit 126, is more strict, than condition, referred for storage battery 110.

[170]

[0143] In this version, ingalyatornoe device 100 may include multiple identical elements or multiple elements identical type. For example, ingalyatornoe device 100 [v100, shown on fig.. 1B, can be made with of field placement of multitude of third units 126 (for example, the first and second capsules) (or the first and second sources aroma). In this example, the first and the second capsule may contain sources aroma identical type, having identical maximum reservoir, may contain sources aroma identical type, having different maximum reservoir, may contain sources aroma different types of, having identical maximum reservoir, or may contain sources aroma of different types, having different maximum reservoir. In this example, at the stage of 402, reservoir the first capsule and the second reservoir capsule can be detected or assessed by means of identical method. If frequency of replacement of the first capsule higher than frequency replacement of the second capsule, then a predetermined condition, referred for the first capsule, which is determined on stage 404, is more strict, than a predetermined condition, referred for the second capsule. Also should be take into account, the treatment alternatives of by Figure 4 can be realized, when ingalyatornoe device 100 includes multiple storage cells 110 and/or a set of second units 104 (for example, cartridge) (or reservoir 116).

[171]

[0144] Figure 5 is unit - circuit sequence of operations of the method, which shows other base mode of operation ingalyatornogo device 100 according to the second version of this invention opening substance.

[172]

[0145] Treatment starts with stages 502. Process at the stage of 502 is identical process at the stage of 402.

[173]

[0146] Treatment passes stage to stage 504, and controller 106 then determines, is equal or less than or no reservoir element, detected or appraised at the stage of 502, threshold value, preset for this element. If capacity is not is equal to or less than the threshold value ("no" at the stage of 504), treatment is returned to a stage before stage 502. If reservoir is equal to or less than the threshold value ("Da" at the stage of 504), treatment passes stage to stage 506.

[174]

[0147] At the stage of 506, controller 106 then determines, met or not a predetermined condition, referred for element, tank of which is determined at the stage of 504 as equal to or smaller threshold value. Since "a predetermined condition" already explained relative to fig.. 4, its explanations of not are repeated here. If a predetermined condition is not met ("no" at the stage of 506), treatment is returned to a stage before stage 506. If a predetermined condition is met ("Da" at the stage of 506), treatment passes stage to stage 508. Process at the stage of 508 is identical process at the stage of 406.

[175]

[0148] In version of realisation, shown on Figure 5 also, identically fig.. 4, a predetermined condition, determined on stage 506, becomes more strict for one of multiple elements, which includes ingalyatornoe device 100, if it should be made more frequently operation for return of reservoir considered one element in state, in which it has reservoir, required for the, to continuously to form aerosol. In addition, ingalyatornoe device 100 may include multiple identical elements or multiple elements identical type.

[176]

[0149] Fig.. 6 is unit - circuit sequence of operations of the method, which specifically shows an example of operation of ingalyatornogo device 100 according to this version. In below the above description, controller 106 is described is a performing all stages, shown on fig.. 6. Nevertheless, it should be mentioned, that some stages by fig.. 6 can be made by means of other components in ingalyatornom device 100. Here, ingalyatornoe device has signs ingalyatornogo device 100 [v100, shown on fig.. 1B, and the first unit 102 (for example, module holding the battery) (or accumulator 110), the second unit 104 (for example, cartridge) (or reservoir 116) and third unit 126 (for example, capsule) (or source 128 aroma) ingalyatornogo device 100 [v100 invention describes as representing "element" on Figure 4 and 5. as already described, it should be mentioned, that can be provided multiple identical elements or similar elements. It should be mentioned, that in version by fig.. 6, of determining relative to threshold value and preliminarily specified condition are made only for the first unit 102 (or storage battery 110) and third unit 126 (capsule) (or source of 128 aroma), while such of determining are not made for the second unit 104 (cartridge) (for example, reservoir 116). In particular, version of realisation by fig.. 6 can encompass in case, in which the second unit 104 does not threshold value or previously specified condition, and in case, in which threshold value and a predetermined condition not are indicated for the second unit 104. Here, from accumulator 110 and capsule 126, which are members ingalyatornogo device 100 [v100, operation for return of state, in which element has reservoir, required for the, to continuously to form aerosol, is more frequently for capsule 126. In one example, accumulator 110 can charged, at least, one times, while capsule 126 is replaced by ten times.

[177]

[0150] Treatment starts with stages 602. At the stage of 602, controller 106 then determines, detected or not beginning of tightening ingalyatornogo device 100 by user. As coded, if sensor 112 includes a sensor pressure or flow rate sensor, controller 106 may determine then, that lagging initiated, when pressure or flow rate, obtained from sensor 112, exceeds a predetermined value. Controller 106 also may determine then, that lagging initiated, when duration, for which pressure or flow rate is detected by means of a sensor 112, exceeds a predetermined duration. In another example, controller 106 may determine then, that lagging initiated, when ingalyatornoe device 100 includes beginning of button, and the button of consumer. If beginning of tightening not is detected ("no" at the stage of 602), treatment is returned to a stage before stage 602. If beginning of tightening detected ("Da" at the stage of 602), treatment passes stage to stage 604.

[178]

[0151] Stage 604 is an example stages 404 by Figure 4 or the stage of 504 (and stages 506) by Figure 5 relative to storage battery 110 as element ingalyatornogo device 100 [v100. At the stage of 604, controller 106 then determines, exceeds or not voltage storage battery 110 threshold value (off voltage of discharge (for example, 3.2 in) and T. d.). Voltage storage battery 110 equal to or less than cutoff voltage discharge ("no" at the stage of 604), treatment passes stage to stage 606. Stage 606 represents an example stages 406 by Figure 4 or the stage of 508 by Figure 5 relative to storage battery 110. At the stage of 606, controller 106 instructs part 108 notification function by first method. In one example, if part 108 notification includes light emitting diode, the first method may include coaching emitting blinking red color for 5.4 seconds. After that, treatment is finished. The other side, if voltage storage battery 110 exceeds off voltage of discharge ("Da" at the stage of 604), treatment passes stage to stage 608.

[179]

[0152] Treatment from stage 608 to stages 612 is identical treatment from stage 308 to stages 312 by fig.. 3, and its explanations of not are repeated here.

[180]

[0153] Treatment passes stage to stage 614, and controller 106 instructs part 108 notification function second method. The second method is a method of operation of part 108 notification, when user performs normal suction using ingalyatornogo device 100 [v100. In one example, if part 108 notification includes emitting diode, at the stage of 614, controller 106 can instruct emitting constantly radial devices blue color.

[181]

[0154] Treatment from stage 616 to stages 628 is identical treatment from stage 316 to stages 328 by fig.. 3, and its explanations of not are repeated here.

[182]

[0155] Stages 630 - 634 are an example stages 404 by Figure 4 or the stage of 504 and 506 by Figure 5 relative to third unit 126 (capsule) as element ingalyatornogo device 100 [v100. At the stage of 630, controller 106 then determines, exceeds cumulative time TA or not previously determined threshold time. Threshold time can be given as cumulative time inhalation on ingalyatornom device 100 [v100, which is evaluated the, fact that the container (in this example, residual value of aromatic ingredients, contained in source 128 aroma) capsule 126 below value, required for, to generate aerosol with sufficient given flavour with. Threshold time can be preset in memory 114 and T. d. If TA is equal to or less than the threshold time ("no" at the stage of 630), then from this follows, fact that the container capsule 126 is defined as exceeding threshold value, referred for capsule 126, and processing returns to a stage before stage 602. If TA exceeds the threshold time ("Da" at the stage of 630), then from this follows, fact that the container capsule 126 is defined as equal to or smaller threshold value, indicated for capsule 126, and processing passes to stage 632.

[183]

[0156] At the stage of 632, controller 106 then determines, detected or not beginning of tightening. In one example, if sensor 112 includes a sensor pressure or flow rate sensor, controller 106 may determine then, that lagging initiated, when pressure or flow rate, obtained from sensor 112, has absolute value, exceeding a predetermined value.

[184]

[0157] If beginning of tightening not is detected ("no" at the stage of 632), treatment is returned to a stage before stage 632. In particular, controller 106 waits detecting beginning of tightening. If beginning of tightening detected ("Da" at the stage of 632), treatment passes stage to stage 634.

[185]

[0158] At the stage of 634, controller 106 then determines, continues or not lagging during preliminarily determined period of time (for example, 1.0 s). Predetermined period of time can be in memory 114. If lagging not continues during preliminarily determined period of time ("no" at the stage of 634), treatment is returned to a stage before stage 632. If lagging continues during preliminarily determined period of time ("Da" at the stage of 634), treatment passes stage to stage 63 b. By means of stage of 634, to prevent possibility of subsequent processes, even when erroneously is determined then, that beginning of tightening detected at the stage of 632 of due to background noise.

[186]

[0159] Both process at stages of 632 and 634 may be made, or only one of them may be made.

[187]

[0160] At the stage of 636, controller 106 of function of power supply in spraying part 118. It should be mentioned, process at the stage of 636 may be made between stage 630 and stage of 632.

[188]

[0161] Treatment passes stage to stage 638. Stage 638 represents an example stages 406 by Figure 4 or the stage of 508 by Figure 5 relative to capsule 126. At the stage of 638, controller 106 instructs part 108 notification function the third method. In one example, if part 108 notification includes light emitting diode, the third method may include coaching emitting blink blue color. Controller 106 can instruct the part 108 notification function for relative to long time (for example, 40 seconds) so, that user may detect the fact, fact that the container capsule 126 is insufficient.

[189]

[0162] Treatment from stage 640 to stages 644 is identical treatment from stage 340 to stages 344 by fig.. 3, and its explanations of not are repeated here.

[190]

[0163] Condition, which should be met for debriefing part 108 notification function the third by relative to capsule 126 at the stage of 638, is more strict, than condition, which should be met for debriefing part 108 notification function by first method relative to storage battery 110 at the stage of 606. Since condition for operation part 108 notification is more strict for element, for which replacement and T. d. is more frequently, simplified prevention of disorders of operation of part 108 notification. Respectively, possibility to reduce probability, that user not draws attention to operation of part 108 notification, impelling relative to replacement element, for which frequently is replacement of, and T. d.

[191]

[0164] Condition, which should be met for debriefing part 108 notification function by first method relative to storage battery 110 at the stage of 606, includes one such requirement, that voltage storage battery 110 should be equal to or less than voltage of off discharge. Opposite to, condition, which should be met for debriefing part 108 notification function the third by relative to capsule 126 at the stage of 638, includes two such requirements, T. E. that (1) TA should exceed the threshold time, and that (of II) beginning of tightening should be detected, and additionally may include other such requirement, that (of III) lagging should continue during preliminarily determined period of time. In particular, in this version, condition, which is defined by the relative to capsule 126 relative to treatment over Figure 4 or 5, includes greater number requirements, than condition, which is defined by the relative to storage battery 110 relative to this treatment. Other words, above the described condition may include more requirements for element, for which operation for return of considered element in state, in which it has reservoir, required for continuous forming of aerosol, is more frequently from multiple elements ingalyatornogo device 100 [v100. Since condition for operation part 108 notification includes greater number requirements for element, for which replacement and T. d. is with higher frequency, disturbance of operation of part 108 notification easily prevented. Respectively, possibility to reduce probability, that user not draws attention to operation of part 108 notification, impelling relative to replacement element, for which frequently is replacement of, and T. d.

[192]

[0165] It should be mentioned, that controller 106 may not perform part of stages, shown on the fig.. 6, or order part of stages can modified. For example, then, detected or not beginning of tightening, may not be determined on stage 602 to the, as part of notification is set with the possibility of function by first method at the stage of 606. Other words, controller can perform stage 602 after, as controller at the stage of 604 then determines, equal to or less than or not voltage storage battery 110 cutoff voltage discharge. In this version, should be clearly take into account, that condition, which should be met, in order to instruct the part 108 notification function by first method relative to storage battery 110 at the stage of 606, includes only one such requirement, that voltage storage battery 110 should be equal to or less than voltage of off discharge.

[193]

[0166] In addition, controller 106 can always to continue the determining stage 604 in processes on and after the stage of 602. So, in process of performance of stages 608 - 644, when voltage storage battery 110, which detects controller 106, becomes equal to or smaller than voltage off discharge ("Da" at the stage of 604), in this case the stage 606 is as treatment of interruption, and controller 106 instructs part 108 notification function by first method. In this version, condition, which should be met for debriefing part 108 notification function by first method relative to storage battery 110 at the stage of 606, includes the requirement, initiated or not detection of tightening at the stage of 602. Nevertheless, this requirement is relatively moderate, avoided only then, that stage 604 should be met on any from stages after the, as "Da" obtained by determining at the stage of 602. Opposite to, condition, which should be met, in order to instruct the part 108 notification function the third by relative to capsule 126 at the stage of 638, includes such relative to strict requirement, that controller 106 should to obtain "Da" by means of its of determining relative to stages 632 and 634 immediately after the, as controller 106 at the stage of 630 then determines, that cumulative time TA exceeds previously determined threshold time ("Da" at the stage of 630). Other words, stage 606 is a process, which can be made during formation of aerosol, while stage 638 is a process, which can not be met during formation of aerosol.

[194]

[0167] Alternatively, controller 106 may be used determination of stages 604 only immediately after determining, leading to "Da" at the stage of 602. In this version, condition, which should be met for debriefing part 108 notification function by first method relative to storage battery 110 at the stage of 606, includes such requirement, that beginning of tightening should be detectable, in addition to such demand, that voltage storage battery 110 should be equal to or less than voltage of off discharge. Nevertheless, condition, which should be met for debriefing part 108 notification function by first method relative to storage battery 110 at the stage of 606, not includes such requirement, that (ill) lagging should continue during preliminarily determined period of time, which is connected into condition, which should be met for debriefing part 108 notification function the third by relative to capsule 126 at the stage of 638. Consequently, in any of these embodiment, condition, which should be determined relative to capsule 126 relative to treatment over Figure 4 or fig.. 5, includes greater number requirements, than condition, which should be determined relative to storage battery 110 relative to this treatment.

[195]

[0168] Relative to stages 632 controller 106 is made for to obtain a request for formation of aerosol. For example, controller 106 may determine then, request that formation of aerosol is made, when sensor 112 detects pressure, which exceeds the pre-defined value. In another example, if sensor 112 sends request to formation of aerosol in controller 106 in response to detection of pressure, larger preliminarily determined value, then controller 106 may determine then, that request is made. Detection of higher than the said request may correspond to beginning of detection tightening at the stage of 632. Respectively, from accumulator 110 and capsule 126, condition, which should be determined relative to capsule 126, for which frequency described above is maximum, may include detection described above request. Based on this sign, element, having the biggest frequency of replacement and T. d ., includes detection of tightening as conditions for debriefing part 108 notification function. Respectively, since part 108 notification operates, when user clearly wants to perform inhalation, possibility of more to reduce probability, that user not draws attention to operation of part 108 notification.

[196]

[0169] Condition, when at the stage of 632 is determined then, that beginning of tightening detected, may be more strict, than condition, when stage 602 is determined then, that beginning of tightening detected. For example, a predetermined value, used when determining at the stage of 632, may exceed a predetermined value, used when determining at the stage of 602. In addition, duration, used when determining at the stage of 632, may exceed duration, used when determining at the stage of 602.

[197]

[0170] Relative to stages 606 and 638, controller 106 can be made for instruct part 108 notification function in for prolonged time, when condition for element from multiple elements is met, if this element has higher frequency, described above, from multiple elements. In particular, since above described frequency becomes higher for capsule 126, than for storage battery 110, period of time, in which part 108 notification functions at the stage of 638, may exceed period of time, in which part 108 notification functions at the stage of 606. Based on this criterion, relative to element, for which replacement and T. d. frequently is, possibility of more to reduce probability, that user not draws attention to operation of part 108 notification.

[198]

[0171] If part 108 notification includes light-emitting element, such as light emitting diode, controller 106 may indicate different color light radiation for corresponding elements. For example, controller 106 can specify color of light radiation light-emitting element for storage battery 110 as red color and can specify color of light radiation light-emitting element for capsule 126 as blue. Controller 106 can indicate color light radiation light-emitting element for corresponding elements based on above produced frequency, associated with respective from multiple elements. Based on this sign, user should have possibility of more simpler to recognize then, for some element should be made replacement and T. d.

[199]

[0172] For example, controller 106 may select color of light radiation light-emitting element from more cold colors for element, having the more higher frequency out of multiple elements. By means of the choice often illuminated color from cold colors, possibility to encourage user perform operation of replacement of sense in common usage without excessive of location of user state of constant readiness.

[200]

[0173] In addition, controller 106 may select color of light radiation light-emitting element from more warm colors for element, having the more low frequency out of multiple elements. In wider concept, controller 106 may select color of light radiation light-emitting element from colors, having a lesser length of wave for element, having the more higher frequency out of multiple elements, and may select color of light radiation light-emitting element from colors, having larger length wave for element, having the more low frequency. By selecting color of light radiation light-emitting element from warm colors relative to element, having low frequency of replacement and T. d ., possibility of strongly attract attention user, when replacement of time occurs for replacement of element, which is required very rare.

[201]

[0174] Controller 106 can also be is made for control light-emitting element so, that the colour light radiation light-emitting element in case of, if condition is met relative to element, with maximum frequency out of multiple elements, becomes identical to color with light radiation light-emitting element during formation of aerosol. In particular, in example by fig.. 6, controller 106 can also set color of light radiation light-emitting element in normal operating mode of stages 614 as blue and can similarly set, as blue color, color light radiation light-emitting element on stage 638, associated with capsule 126, which has maximum frequency storage battery 110, and capsule 126. Based on this sign, possibility of allow the user to understand the fact, that replacement and T. d. should be made for element, with maximum frequency of replacement and T. d. (T. E. frequency of notification to user) without deterioration of user perception.

[202]

[0175] Controller 106 can be made for suspend functioning part 108 notification, when, at least, one element from multiple elements they will take out. In example by fig.. 6, if the second unit 104 and third unit 126 are taken out, controller 106 may suspend functioning part 108 notification, when one or both of these units removed.

[203]

[0176] Fig.. 7 is unit - circuit sequence of operations of the method, which specifically shows an example of operation of ingalyatornogo device 100 according to this version. Identically fig.. 6, explanations are provided provided, that ingalyatornoe device has signs ingalyatornogo device 100 [v100, shown on fig.. 1B, and module holding the battery 102 (or accumulator 110), cartridge 104 (or reservoir 116) and capsule 126 (or source 128 aroma) are "members" on Figure 4 and 5. it should be mentioned, that in version by fig.. 7, supposed, that of determining relative threshold values and preliminarily specified conditions are performed for storage battery 110, cartridge 104 and capsule 126. Here, supposed, that from accumulator 110, cartridge 104 and capsule 126, which are members ingalyatornogo device 100 [v100, frequency, on which operation is for return of element in state, in which it is reservoir, required for continuous forming of aerosol, is maximum for capsule 126, the second maximum for cartridge 104 and minimum for storage battery 110. In one example, cartridge 104 can be replaced by a two times, and accumulator 110 can charged once, while capsule is replaced by ten times.

[204]

[0177] Treatment starts with stages 702. Treatment from stage 702 to stages 728 is identical treatment from stage 602 to stages 628 by fig.. 6, and its explanations of not are repeated here. The same way, as at the stage of 606 by fig.. 6, at the stage of 706, controller 106 instructs part 108 notification function by first method. In one example, if part 108 notification includes light emitting diode, the first method may include coaching emitting blinking red color for 5.4 seconds.

[205]

[0178] Stages 729, 746 and 748 are examples stages 404 by Figure 4 or stages 504 and 506 by Figure 5 relative to cartridge 104 as one element ingalyatornogo device 100 [v100. Stages 729 - 734 are examples stages 404 by Figure 4 or stages 504 and 506 by Figure 5 relative to capsule 126 as one element ingalyatornogo device 100 [v100.

[206]

[0179] At the stage of 729, controller 106 then determines, exceeds or not reservoir cartridge 104 a predetermined threshold reservoir. If reservoir cartridge 104 exceeds the threshold reservoir ("Da" at the stage of 729), treatment passes stage to stage 730. Treatment from stage 730 to stages 744 is identical treatment from stage 630 to stages 644 by fig.. 6, and its explanations of not are repeated here. It should be mentioned, at stage of 734, controller 106 then determines, continues or not lagging during the first predetermined period of time (for example, 1.0 s). In addition, at the stage of 738, controller 106 instructs part 108 notification function the third method. In one example, if part 108 notification includes light emitting diode, the third method may include coaching emitting blink blue color. Controller 106 can instruct the part 108 notification function for relative to long time (for example, 40 seconds) so, that user may detect the fact, fact that the container capsule 126 is insufficient.

[207]

[0180] At the stage of 729, if reservoir cartridge 104 is equal or less than threshold vessel ("no" at the stage of 729), treatment passes stage to stage 746. At the stage of 746, controller 106 then determines, detected or not beginning of tightening. In one example, if sensor 112 includes a sensor pressure or flow rate sensor, controller 106 may determine then, that lagging initiated, when pressure or flow rate, obtained from sensor 112, has absolute value, exceeding a predetermined value. Controller 106 also may determine then, that lagging initiated, when duration, for which pressure or flow rate is detected by means of a sensor 112, exceed the pre-specified duration.

[208]

[0181] Beginning when tightening not is detected ("no" at the stage of 746), process returns to place before stage 746. Beginning when tightening is detected ("Da" at the stage of 746), process passes stage to stage 748.

[209]

[0182] At the stage of 748, controller 106 then determines, continues or not lagging during second predetermined time (for example, 0.5 seconds). The second pre-defined time may be in memory 114. When lagging not continues during second preliminarily determined time ("no" at the stage of 748), process returns to place before stage 746. When lagging continues during second preliminarily determined time ("Da" at the stage of 748), process passes stage to stage 7 50. Processes at the stage of 74 6 and 74 8 may be made, or only one of processes may be made. Alternatively, processes at the stage of 746 and 748 may be excluded.

[210]

[0183] At the stage of 750, controller 106 of function of power supply in spraying part 118. It should be mentioned, process at the stage of 750 may be made between stage 729 and stage of 746.

[211]

[0184] Process passes stage to stage 752, and controller 106 instructs part 108 notification function the fourth method. In one example, when part 108 notification includes light emitting diode, the third method may include blinking light emitting diode green color. Controller 106 can instruct the part 108 notification function for sufficiently long time (for example, 20 seconds) so, that user is observed, fact that the container cartridge 104 is insufficient.

[212]

[0185] Condition, which should be met, in order to instruct the part 108 notification function by first method relative to storage battery 110 at the stage of 706, includes one such requirement, that voltage storage battery 110 should be equal to or less than voltage of off discharge. Unlike it, condition, which should be met, in order to instruct the part 108 notification function the fourth by relative to cartridge 104 at the stage of 752, includes two such requirements, that (1) reservoir cartridge 104 should be equal to or less than threshold reservoir, and (11) beginning of tightening should be detectable, and additionally may include other such requirement, that (ill) lagging should continue during preliminarily determined time. Additionally, condition, which should be met, in order to instruct the part 108 notification function the third by relative to capsule 126 at the stage of 738, includes three such requirements, that (1) reservoir cartridge 104 should exceed threshold reservoir, (11) TA should exceed the threshold time, and (ill) beginning of tightening should be detectable, and additionally may include other such requirement, that (of IV) lagging should continue during preliminarily determined time. So, the present version, condition, which is defined by the relative to capsule 126 relative to process Figure 4 or fig.. 5, includes maximum number of requirements, condition, which is defined by the relative to cartridge 104 relative to process Figure 4 by fig.. 5, includes a second maximum number of requirements, and the condition, which is defined by the relative to storage battery 110 relative to process Figure 4 or fig.. 5, includes a minimum number of requirements. In other words, conditions, which are set for elements with higher frequency, with which operation for return of elements in state, having required reservoir for, to generate aerosol continuously, from multiple elements ingalyatornogo device 100 [v100, may include more requirements.

[213]

[0186] It should be mentioned, that controller 106 can to pull some stages, which positioned on illustrated fig.. 7, or may change order of some stages. For example, then, is detected or not beginning of tightening, should not be determined on stage 702, to the, as part of notification it is instructed function in the first mode at the stage of 706. Other words, controller can perform stage 702 after, as controller determines then, equal to or less than or not voltage storage battery 110 voltage off discharge on stage 704. The present version, obviously, that condition, which should be met, in order to instruct the part 108 notification function in the first mode relative to storage battery 110 at the stage of 706, includes only one such requirement, that voltage storage battery 110 should be equal to or less than voltage of off discharge.

[214]

[0187] Additionally, in processes after the stage of 702, controller 106 can always to continue the determination of at the stage of 704. So, when voltage storage battery 110, which is detected by means of controller 106, becomes equal to or smaller than voltage off discharge ("Da" at the stage of 704) in process of stages of 708 - 754, controller performs stage 706 as treatment of interruption, and controller 106 instructs part 108 notification function by first method. The present version, condition, which should be met, in order to instruct the part 108 notification function by first method relative to storage battery 110 at the stage of 706, includes the requirement, starts or not detection of tightening at the stage of 702. Nevertheless, requirement is relatively nestrogim so, that stage 704 should only be met on any from stages after the, is determined as "Da" at the stage of 702. Unlike it, condition, which should be met, in order to instruct the part 108 notification function the third by relative to capsule 126 at the stage of 738, includes such relative to strict requirement, that controller 106 should perform determination of "Da" relative to stages 732 and stages 734 immediately after the, as controller 106 then determines, that cumulative time TA exceeds previously determined threshold time at the stage of 730 ("Da" at the stage of 730). Similarly, condition, which should be met, in order to instruct the part 108 notification function the fourth by relative to cartridge 104 at the stage of 752, includes such relative to strict requirement, that controller 106 should perform determination of "Da" relative to stages 746 and stages 748 immediately after the, as controller 106 determines the, fact that the container cartridge is less than predetermined threshold reservoir, at the stage of 729 ("no" at the stage of 729). Other words, stage 706 is a process, which also may be made during formation of aerosol, while stage 738 and stage of 752 are processes, that may not be met during formation of aerosol.

[215]

[0188] Additionally, controller 106 may be used determination of stages 704 only immediately after the, is determined as "Da" at the stage of 740. The present version, condition, which should be met, in order to instruct the part 108 notification function by first method relative to storage battery 110 at the stage of 706, includes such requirement, that beginning of tightening should be detectable, in addition to such demand, that voltage storage battery 110 should be equal to or less than voltage of off discharge. Nevertheless, condition, which should be met, in order to instruct the part 108 notification function by first method relative to storage battery 110 at the stage of 706, not includes such requirement, that (ill) lagging should continue during preliminarily determined time, which is connected into condition, which should be met, in order to instruct the part 108 notification function the third by relative to capsule 126 at the stage of 738, or condition, which should be met, order to control notification part for functioning the fourth by relative to cartridge 104 at the stage of 752. Consequently, in any of versions, conditions, which are determined relative to capsule 126 and cartridge 104, include more requirements, than condition, which is defined by the relative to storage battery 110 relative to process.

[216]

[0189] Requirement for determining the beginning of tightening, detected at the stage of 732, may be more strict, than requirement for determining the beginning of tightening, detected at the stage of 746. In one example, when sensor 112 includes a sensor pressure or flow rate sensor, controller 106 may determine then, lagging that starts, when pressure, obtained from sensor 112, exceeds the first pre-defined value, at the stage of 732. The other side, at the stage of 746, controller 106 may determine then, lagging that starts, when pressure, obtained from sensor 112, exceeds the second pre-defined value, which is less than the first predetermined value. Additionally, the first pre-defined time (for example, 1.0 s), which is used when determining at the stage of 734, exceeds the second pre-defined time (for example, 0.5 seconds), which is used when determining at the stage of 748. So, the present version, condition, which is defined by the relative to capsule 126 relative to process Figure 4 or fig.. 5, has more low probability of satisfying, than condition, which is defined by the relative to cartridge 104 relative to process. Other words, condition has more low probability of satisfying, which is set for element with higher frequency, with which operation for return of element in state, having reservoir, required for the, to generate aerosol continuously, is made of multiple elements ingalyatornogo device 100 [v100. Element with more high frequency of replacement and T. U. has more low probability of satisfying condition for operation part 108 notification so, that erroneous operation of part 108 notification easily prevented. Respectively, may decrease probability of underreporting by user attention on operation part 108 notification, which impels replacement relative to element with high frequency of replacement and T. U.

[217]

[0190] In above specified Rationale, the second version of this invention opening substance is described is a ingalyatornoe device, having configuration, illustrated on fig.. 1A or fig.. 1B, and as method, illustrated on any from fig.. 4 - 7. Nevertheless, should be understand, that when the present opening of substance is by means of processor, the present opening of substance may be made by means of processor as a program, which instructs processor to method, illustrated on any from fig.. 4 - 7, or as machine-readable carrier data storage, retaining program.

[0191] The third version of realization

[218]

Figure 8 is unit - circuit sequence of operations of the method, illustrating base mode of operation ingalyatornogo device 100 according to the third version of this invention opening substance. Further in this document, description is by means of such assumptions, that controller 106 performs all stages, which positioned on illustrated fig.. 8. The not less than, attention should make very fact fact, that some steps on fig.. 8 can be made by means of other components in ingalyatornom device 100.

[219]

[0192] Process starts at the stage of 802, and controller 106 detects or estimates reservoir of the first element ingalyatornogo device 100. The meanings of terms "element" and "reservoir" already are described relative to the first versions of realization. The present version, ingalyatornoe device 100 includes multiple elements. For example, ingalyatornoe device 100A, illustrated on fig.. 1A, has the first unit 102 (for example, section body for storage battery) (or accumulator 110) and the second unit of 104 (for example, cartridge) (or reservoir 116) as elements. Ingalyatornoe device 100 [v100, illustrated on fig.. 1B, has the third unit 126 (for example, capsule) (or source 128 aroma) as element in addition to these two elements. Ingalyatornoe device 100 also can include multiple identical elements or multiple identical types of elements. For example, ingalyatornoe device 100 [v100, illustrated on fig.. 1B, can be made with multiple to place third units 126 (for example, the first and second capsules). In this example, the first and the second capsule can include identical to type of source aroma, having identical maximum reservoir, can include identical to type of source aroma, with different maximum reservoir, or can include various types of sources aroma, having different maximum reservoir. Similarly, ingalyatornoe device 100 may include multiple cartridges 104 and a set of storage batteries 110 as elements.

[220]

[0193] Further in this document, specifically described is an example, in which ingalyatornoe device has configuration ingalyatornogo device 100 [v100 on fig.. 1B and includes accumulator 110, cartridge 104 and capsule 126 as elements. Nevertheless, professionals in the given engineering should be obvious, that present version of realisation is also useful to ingalyatornym devices other configurations, such as ingalyatornoe device 100A on fig.. 1A.

[221]

[0194] Reservoir members may be detectable or assessed by means of various methods. In one example, sensor 112 may be a weight sensor. In this case, controller 106 detects weight element by means of use of sensor 112 (for example, weight of liquid STI or cigarette in case, if source aerosol, connected reservoir 116 in cartridge 104, is a liquid st or cigarette), and can determine this detected weight as capacity of the cell. In another example, sensor 112 may have the capability to detect level height liquid STI (aerosol source and T. U ., included in the reservoir 116 in cartridge 104). In this case, controller 106 may detect level height liquid STI element by means of use of sensor 112 and evaluate reservoir element based on detected level liquid STI. In another example, storage device 114 can preserve value integration time power supply in spraying part 118. In this case, controller 106 can evaluate reservoir element (for example, residual value of source of aerosol, included in the reservoir 116 in cartridge 104, residual value of aromatic and flavor components cigarette, residual value of aromatic and flavor components, connected in the source 128 aroma in capsule 126, and T. U.) based on integral time power supply, which is produced from storage 114. In another example, storage device 114 can preserve number of vdykhanii ("tie" in example electronic cigarette), which are performed by the user ingalyatornoe device 100. In this case, controller 106 can evaluate reservoir element based on number of vdykhanii, produced from storage 114. In another example, storage device 114 can preserve data relative to history heating spraying part 118. In this case, controller 106 can evaluate reservoir element based on data, obtained from storage 114. In another example, storage device 114 can preserve data relative to the SOC (charge state, charge state) storage battery 110, value of integration of current and/or voltage. Sensor 112 can detect these values. In this case, controller 106 may detect or evaluate reservoir element (in particular, storage battery 110) based on these data. In another example, sensor 112 may have function of detection of planting (or function connection detection) for detecting the, that capsule 126 and/or cartridge 104 they. In this example, controller 106 can evaluate the, fact that the container capsule 126 is equal to zero, when sensor 112 detects then, that capsule 126 is disconnected. Controller 106 additionally can evaluate the, fact that the container cartridge 104 is equal to zero, when sensor 112 detects then, that cartridge 104 is disconnected.

[222]

[0195] Reservoir, at least, one element from multiple elements can be detected or assessed by means of method, differing from method for tank, at least, one other element from multiple elements. Additionally, reservoir, at least, one element from multiple elements can be detected or assessed by means of method, identical method for tank, at least, one other element from multiple elements. For example, as reservoir capsule 126, so and reservoir cartridge 104 can be detected or assessed based on accumulated time power supply in spraying part 118 or value of accumulated power. Additionally, as reservoir storage battery 110, so and reservoir cartridge 104 can be detected or assessed based on accumulated values of current.

[223]

[0196] Process passes stage to stage 804. At the stage of 804, controller 106 then determines, is less than or not reservoir of the first element (for example, capsule 126), which is detected or is estimated on the stage 802, the first threshold value. The first threshold value can be in memorizing device 114 by means of associating with the first element. Controller 106 can obtain the first threshold value from storage 114. As described above, reservoir of the first element can be detected or assessed by means of various methods. Respectively, understandable, that the first threshold value can receive different formats and value in accordance with the method, which is used for, to detect or evaluate reservoir of the first element.

[224]

[0197] Reservoir when the first element is not less than the first threshold value ("no" at the stage of 804), process returns to place before stage 802. Reservoir when the first element is less than the first threshold value ("Da" at the stage of 804), process passes stage to stage 806. At the stage of 806, controller 106 detects or estimates reservoir of the second element (for example, cartridge 104) ingalyatornogo device 100.

[225]

[0198] Process passes stage to stage 808. At the stage of 808, controller 106 then determines, is less than or not reservoir of the second element, which is detected or is estimated on the stage s806, second threshold value. As described above, tank of the second member may be detectable or assessed by means of various methods. Respectively, understandable, that second threshold value can receive different shape and value, in accordance with the method, which is used for, to detect or evaluate reservoir of the second element.

[226]

[0199] When reservoir of the second element is not less than second threshold value ("no" at the stage of 808), process passes stage to stage 810. At the stage of 810, controller 106 performs notification in the first mode vdykhayushchemu (user) ingalyatornogo device 100. For example, controller 106 instructs part 108 notification function in the first mode. Part 108 notification may include light-emitting element, such as, light emitting diode, display, speaker and vibrator. Part 108 notification is made for perform some type of notification to user by means of light radiation, display, sound, vibration and T. U.

[227]

[0200] In case of "no" at the stage of 808, controller 106 additionally may determine then, satisfies or not preliminarily preset variable, detected by means of a sensor 112, previously specified condition for request for forming aerosol. When preliminarily preset variable satisfies desired condition, controller 106 can instruct the part 108 notification function in the first mode at the stage of 810. In one example, preliminarily preset variable may be a pressure or flow rate, and a predetermined condition may include pressure or flow rate, having a predetermined value for detecting the beginning of tightening or more. In another example, a predetermined condition may include pressure or flow rate, extending during preliminarily determined time for detection of the beginning of tightening. In these characteristics, part 108 notification functions in the first mode not only based on the results of determination of at stages of 804 and 808, but also based on this detection of attempts to user inhale by means of use of ingalyatornogo device 100. Respectively, user more simpler is observed, that the first element (for example, capsule 126) should replaced.

[228]

[0201] When reservoir of the second element is less than the second threshold value ("Da" at the stage of 808), process passes stage to stage 812. At the stage of 812, controller 106 performs notification to the user in the second mode. For example, controller 106 instructs part 108 notification function in the second mode.

[229]

[0202] According to version of, illustrated on fig.. 8, part 108 notification can to be instructed function in different modes, when only reservoir of the first element (for example, capsule) is insufficient, and when reservoir as the first element, and second element (for example, cartridge) are insufficient. Respectively, the user can easily understand, replace the should be only the first element or replace the as the first element, and the second element.

[230]

[0203] Ingalyatornoe device 100 may include multiple elements, including, at least, the first and second elements. In this case, above the described a predetermined condition may include such requirement, relative to that of each of multiple elements, detected or appraised reservoir should be equal or less than the threshold value, preset for element. Controller 106 can be made for instruct part 108 notification function, is met when a predetermined condition, for example, similar designated. Additionally, above described conditions can be more stringent for elements with higher frequency, with which operation for return of elements in state, having reservoir, required for continuous forming of aerosol, from multiple elements. In other words, conditions described above may be less stringent for elements with lower frequency, with which operation for return of elements in state, having reservoir, required for continuous forming of aerosol, from multiple elements. Additionally, described above conditions may have more low probability of satisfying for elements with higher above produced frequency from multiple elements. Alternatively, described above conditions can include more requirements for elements with higher above produced frequency from multiple elements. In these characteristics, may to be prevented erroneous operation of part 108 notification relative to elements, often replaced, and can decrease probability of underreporting by user attention on operation part 108 notification, which impels replacement elements.

[231]

[0204] Controller 106 can be made with possibility to obtain a request for formation of aerosol. Above the described condition for elements with the most high above produced frequency from multiple elements may include detection of request. According to characteristic, element with the most high frequency of replacement and T. U. includes detection of tightening as conditions for debriefing part 108 notification function. Respectively, part 108 notification operates, when user clearly wants to perform inhalation so, that may additionally decrease probability of underreporting by user attention on operation part 108 notification.

[232]

[0205] Controller 106 can be made for instruct part 108 notification function for more time, when above the described condition is met for elements with higher above produced frequency from multiple elements. According to characteristic, user practically always draws attention on operation of part 108 notification, relative to elements with high frequency of replacement and T. U.

[233]

[0206] When part 108 notification includes light-emitting element, controller 106 can set such adjustment, that the colour light radiation light-emitting element differs relative to each from multiple elements. In this force, the user can easily understand then, to any element replacement is required, and T. U. Controller 106 can also be is made for set color of light radiation light-emitting element relative to each of multiple elements based on described above frequency multiple elements. According to characteristic, the user easily recognizes the, which element should replaced, and T. U. Controller 106 may additionally be made with possibility of set color of light radiation light-emitting element as more cold color for elements with higher above produced frequency from multiple elements. By setting color, which frequently is highlighted, as cold color, user can be encourage perform operation with replacement of feeling everyday usage without excessive caution. Controller 106 can also be is made for control light-emitting element so, that the colour light radiation light-emitting element in case of satisfying conditions described above and color of light radiation light-emitting element during formation of aerosol are identical, relative to element with the most high above produced frequency from multiple elements. According to characteristic, a user may then understand to be instructed, that replacement and T. U. is required relative to element with the most high frequency of replacement and T. U. (T. E. frequency notification user) without deterioration of user perception. Controller 106 may additionally be made with possibility of set color of light radiation light-emitting element as more warm colour for element with lower above produced frequency from multiple elements. By setting color of light radiation light-emitting element as warm color relative to elements with low frequency of replacement and T. U ., attention user can be strongly drawn, time occurs when replacement of elements, which rarely is required replacement of, and T. U.

[234]

[0207] In the process of on fig.. 8, frequency, on which operation for return of element in state, having required vessel for continuous forming of aerosol or aerosol with given flavour with (further in this document, sometimes together called "with aerosol") for first element of, higher than frequency for the second element. In one example, while the first element (capsule 126) is replaced five times, the second element (cartridge 104) can be replaced by a one times.

[235]

[0208] In the process of on fig.. 8, capsule 126 may be the first element, and accumulator 110 may be the second element. In one example, while capsule 126 is replaced by ten times, accumulator 110 can charged once.

[236]

[0209] Figure 9 is unit - circuit sequence of operations of the method, specifically illustrating an example operation of ingalyatornogo device 100 according to the present version. Further in this document, description is made by means of such assumptions, that controller 106 performs all stages, which positioned on illustrated fig.. 9. The not less than, attention should make very fact, that some steps on Figure 9 may be made by means of other components in ingalyatornom device 100. Here, description is by means of such assumptions, that ingalyatornoe device has configuration ingalyatornogo device 100 [v100, illustrated on fig.. 1B, and ingalyatornoe device 100 [v100 has accumulator 110, cartridge 104 and capsule 126 as elements, capsule 126 corresponds to first member on fig.. 8, and cartridge 104 corresponds to the second element. Additionally, supposed, that while capsule 126 is replaced five times, cartridge 104 can be replaced by a one times.

[237]

[0210] Process starts at the stage of 902. At the stage of 902, controller 106 then determines, is detected or not beginning of tightening ingalyatornogo device 100 by user. As one of the coded, when sensor 112 includes a sensor pressure or flow rate sensor, controller 106 may determine then, lagging that starts, when pressure or flow rate, obtained from sensor 112, exceeds a predetermined value. Controller 106 additionally may determine then, lagging that starts, when duration, for which pressure or flow rate is detected by means of a sensor 112, exceed the pre-specified duration. In another example, ingalyatornoe device 100 may include button for beginning of, and controller 106 may determine then, lagging that starts, when the consumer. Beginning when tightening not is detected ("no" at the stage of 902), the process returns to place before stage 902. Beginning when tightening is detected ("Da" at the stage of 902), process passes stage to stage 904.

[238]

[0211] At the stage of 904, controller 106 then determines, exceeds or not voltage storage battery 110 threshold voltage (off voltage of discharge (for example, 3.2 in) and T. U.). When voltage storage battery 110 equal to or less than cutoff voltage discharge ("no" at the stage of 904), process passes stage to stage 906. At the stage of 906, controller 106 instructs part 108 notification function in the fourth mode. In one example, in case of part 108 notification, including light emitting diode, fourth mode may include blinking light emitting diode red color for 5.4 seconds. In another example, in case of part 108 notification, including vibrator, fourth mode may include vibration in vibrator for 5.4 seconds. After that, the process is finished. When voltage storage battery 110 exceeds off voltage of discharge, the other side ("Da" at the stage of 904), process passes stage to stage 908.

[239]

[0212] Processes at stages of 908 - 912 are similar processes at the stage of 308 - 312, so that description is lowered here.

[240]

[0213] Process passes stage to stage 914, and controller 106 instructs part 108 notification function in the third mode. The third mode is a working mode part 108 notification during performance, by the user, normal inhalation by means of use of ingalyatornogo device 100 [v100. In one example, in case of part 108 notification, including light emitting diode, controller 106 can stable highlight emitting diode blue color, at the stage of 914.

[241]

[0214] Processes at stages of 916 - 928 are similar processes at stages of 316 - 328 on fig.. 3, so that description is lowered here.

[242]

[0215] Stage 930 is one an example stages 804 on fig.. 8 relative to capsule 126 as the first element ingalyatornogo device 100 [v100. At the stage of 930, controller 106 then determines, exceeds cumulative time TA or not previously determined threshold time. Threshold time may be a cumulative time of inhalation in ingalyatornoe device 100 [v100, in which reservoir capsule 126 (for example, residual value of aromatic and flavor component, connected in the source 128 aroma) value below value, required for the, to generate aerosol with sufficient given flavour with. Threshold time can be in memory 114 and T. U. previously. When TA is equal to or less than the threshold time ("no" at the stage of 930), reservoir capsule 126 is determined as the first threshold value or more, and process returns to place before stage 902. When TA exceeds the threshold time ("Da" at the stage of 930), reservoir capsule 126 is determined as the smaller of the first threshold value, and process changes to stage 932.

[243]

[0216] Processes at stages of 932 - 936 are similar processes at stages of 332 - 336 on Figure 3. condition during of determining the beginning of tightening, detected at the stage of 932, may be more strict, than condition during of determining the beginning of tightening, detected at the stage of 902. Alternatively, probability, that condition during of determining the beginning of tightening, detected at the stage of 932, met, may be lower probability of the, that condition during of determining the beginning of tightening, detected at the stage of 902, is met. In one example, above the described condition may include detection of variable (for example, pressure or flow rate), having absolute value, exceeding a predetermined value. In this time, a predetermined value, used when determining at the stage of 932, may exceed a predetermined value, used when determining at the stage of 902. Above the described condition during of determining the beginning of tightening, detected additionally, may include lagging, continues during preliminarily determined time at the stage of 934. In one example, above the described condition may include detection of variable (for example, pressure), exceeding preliminarily specified duration. When determination with the use of duration, for example, similar designated, also is made on stage 902, duration, used when determining at the stage of 934, may exceed duration, used when determining at the stage of 902. In these characteristics, at a usual inhalation of, reaction forming aerosol on tightening operation by user becomes preferable, and can be provided perception at inhalation of without feeling discomfort. In addition, when reservoir capsule 126 is less than the first threshold value, may to be prevented erroneous of usual operation ingalyatornogo device 100 due to background noise.

[244]

[0217] Process passes stage to stage 938. Stage 938 is one an example stages 808 on fig.. 8 relative to cartridge 104 as the second element ingalyatornogo device 100 [v100. At the stage of 938, n represents a number of times, when capsule 126 is replaced. At the stage of 938, "pre-defined number of times" indicates number of times, when capsule 126 should replaced, while cartridge 104 is replaced once. As described above, in example on fig.. 9, capsule 126 is replaced five times, while cartridge 104 is replaced once, so that a predetermined number of times in this case is equal to five. Respectively, in case of n->5, as capsule 126, and cartridge 104 should replaced, and when n-is less than five, only capsule 126 should replaced, and cartridge 104 should not replaced.

[245]

[0218] At the stage of 938, controller 106 determines is, or is not definitely preliminarily n-number of times (in this case, five) or more. N can be in memory 114. When n-is less than predetermined number of times ("no" at the stage of 938), this corresponds to "not" at the stage of 808 on fig.. 8. So, in this time, reservoir capsule 126, which represents the first element, is less than the first threshold value, but reservoir cartridge 104, which is a the second element, is second threshold value or more. In this case, process passes stage to stage 94 0. at the stage of 94 0, similarly stage of 810 on fig.. 8, controller 106 instructs part 108 notification function in the first mode. In one example, in case of part 108 notification, including light-emitting element, such as light emitting diode, the first mode may include blinking light-emitting element blue colour for 40 seconds. In another example, in case of part 108 notification, including vibrator, the first mode may include vibration in vibrator for two seconds.

[246]

[0219] When part 108 notification it is instructed function in the first mode, controller 106 may to stop formation of aerosol. This can be realised by means of the process at the stage of 936. For example, controller 106 of function of power supply in spraying part 118. Since aerosol is not formed, attention user may be involved, and the user can more simpler then detect, that capsule 126 should replaced. In addition, may to be prevented formation of incomplete aerosol, when residual value of capsule 126 becomes insufficient so, which can be to prevent worsening of perception at inhalation of user.

[247]

[0220] When part 108 notification includes light-emitting element, color light radiation light-emitting element can be identical, and methods of light radiation light-emitting element can differ in the first mode at the stage of 940 and third mode at the stage of 914. Alternatively, color light radiation light-emitting element can differ, and methods of light radiation light-emitting element may be identical, in the first mode and third mode. Alternatively, in the first mode and third mode, as color of light radiation, so and methods of light radiation light-emitting element can differ. In these characteristics, a user may to be instructed to recognize then, that a certain abnormality of, connected with inhalation, arises, when reservoir capsule 126 becomes insufficient, and user can be easily encourage replace the capsule 126.

[248]

[0221] Process passes stage to stage 942, and controller 106 suppresses prohibition of power supply in spraying part 118. In this time, controller 106 can evaluate the, fact that the container capsule 126 returns to pre-determined value (for example, sufficient value for, to generate aerosol or aerosol given flavour with). Notification, on which user practically always draws attention, already is made by means of part 108 notification, so that after completion of functioning part 108 notification in the first mode, possibility of checking replacement of capsule 126 with insufficient capacity and T. U. is high. According to above produced characteristic, optionally to use control logic and members for detection of planting and switching, which are used only for the detection of target, is or not replacement and T. U. capsule 126. Additionally, accuracy counter cumulative time and number of substitutions can achieved.

[249]

[0222] After the, functioning as part 108 notification in the first mode is finished, controller 106 also the number of times, when reservoir capsule 126 returns to pre-determined value. According to characteristic, number of substitutions described above element, which is a useful parameter in evaluating the service life ingalyatornogo device 100 and degrees of consumption other elements, can be counted without using control logic and elements for detection of planting and switching, which are used only for the detection of target, is or not replacement and T. U. element.

[250]

[0223] Process passes stage to stage 944, and controller 106 gradually increases n by 1. in force this, number of substitutions capsule 126 is increased by 1. at the stage of 946, controller 106 drops shaped-charge time TA (sets equal to 0).

[251]

[0224] When n is a predetermined number of times at the stage of 938 ("Da" at the stage of "938"), this corresponds to "Da" at the stage of 808 on fig.. 8. So, in this time, reservoir capsule 126, which represents the first element, is less than the first threshold value, and reservoir cartridge 104, which is a the second element, is less than the second threshold value. Respectively, as capsule 126, and cartridge 104 should replaced. In this case, process passes stage to stage 948. At the stage of 948, controller 106 instructs part 108 notification in the second mode, similarly stage of 812 on fig.. 8. In one example, in case of part 108 notification, including light-emitting element, such as light emitting diode, the second mode may include blinking light-emitting element green color for 60 seconds. So, controller 106 can be made for instruct emitting light element part 108 notification emit light with various colors of light radiation in the first mode at the stage of 940 and the second mode at the stage of 948. According to characteristic, color light radiation light-emitting element changes, when only capsule 126 should replaced, and when as capsule 126, and cartridge 104 should replaced, so that user easily understands then, which element should replaced.

[252]

[0225] Controller 106 can be made for set color of light radiation light-emitting element in the first mode as more cold color as compared with color light radiation in the second mode. In this force, when only capsule 126 should replaced, light-emitting element radiates light with cold color. Respectively, user easily recognizes then, stable that replacement of operation is required, and can more simpler understand then, should replaced only capsule 126 or should replaced as capsule 126, and cartridge 104.

[253]

[0226] Controller 106 can be made for instruct part 108 notification function for multiple times of different durations of in the first mode and the second mode. In this force, can be more simpler is understandable, should replaced only capsule 126 or should replaced as capsule 126, and cartridge 104. Controller 106 can be made for set time of, in which part 108 notification it is instructed function in the first mode, shorter than as compared with time, in which part 108 notification it is instructed function in the second mode. In this force, when only capsule 126 should replaced, time, which in part 108 notification functions, becomes short. Respectively, becomes easily instruct the user to recognize then, that is required operation, which is finished short period of time. Additionally, becomes more simpler understandable, should replaced only capsule 126 or should replaced as capsule 126, and cartridge 104.

[254]

[0227] In another example, in case of part 108 notification, including vibrator, the second mode may include vibration in vibrator for 60 seconds.

[255]

[0228] Process passes stage to stage 950, and controller 106 suppresses prohibition of power supply in spraying part 118. Process is a similar process at the stage of 942.

[256]

[0229] Process passes stage to stage 952, and controller 106 sets of n equal to 1. in force this, number of times, when capsule 126 is replaced, is dropped to 1. after that, process passes stage to stage 946.

[257]

[0230] Controller 106 can be made for interrupt functioning part 108 notification, when, at least, one element from multiple elements is disconnected. In example on fig.. 9, in case of the, that cartridge 104 and capsule 126 are removable, controller 106 may interrupt functioning part 108 notification, when one or both of them they.
