Patent ID: 11303142

Abstract:
An electrically operable aerosol-generating system is provided, including: a charging device including a primary power source; and an elongated aerosol-generating device including a secondary power source and having a proximal end, a distal end, and a body extending between the proximal end and the distal end, the charging device having a docking arrangement configured to engage with the elongated aerosol-generating device, the docking arrangement including a docking space defined between a first end, and an opposing second end spaced from and fixed relative to the first end, the docking space accommodating a longitudinal dimension of the elongated aerosol-generating device, in which electrical contacts are disposed on at least one of the proximal end or the distal end of the elongated aerosol-generating device and are configured to engage with corresponding electrical contacts disposed on at least one of the first end and the second end of the docking arrangement.
