Abstract:
A smoking article for on-demand delivery of an increased quantity of an aerosol precursor composition, a cartridge, and a method are disclosed. In some aspects, the cartridge includes a housing, and a reservoir disposed within the housing and defining two or more chambers each having an aerosol precursor composition therein. The reservoir is in fluid communication with an aerosol forming arrangement configured to form an aerosol from any of the aerosol precursor compositions, with the respective aerosol precursor compositions of the two or more chambers being directed to the aerosol forming arrangement in substantially equal normal quantities. The cartridge further includes an actuator configured to selectively and operably engage any one of the chambers and to direct an increased quantity of the aerosol precursor composition from the chamber engaged therewith to the aerosol forming arrangement, the increased quantity being greater than the normal quantity of the aerosol precursor compositions.

Claim (Index 55):
A method for making a smoking article, comprising:\n engaging a reservoir into fluid communication with an aerosol forming arrangement configured to form an aerosol from aerosol precursor compositions, the reservoir being disposed within a housing of a cartridge, and defining a plurality of chambers each extending longitudinally from a first end disposed toward a proximal end of the housing to a second end disposed toward a distal end of the housing, each of the plurality of chambers having an aerosol precursor composition disposed therein; and engaging a selector disposed between the plurality of the chambers and the aerosol forming arrangement with the housing, the selector defining one or more dispensing ports configured to be selectively aligned with one or more of the plurality of chambers such that the aerosol precursor composition disposed within each of the one or more of the plurality of chambers is capable of being dispensed therefrom through the selectively aligned one or more dispensing ports to the aerosol forming arrangement.
