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 61):
The method of  claim 60 , wherein engaging the reservoir into fluid communication with the aerosol forming arrangement comprises engaging the reservoir defining three chambers into fluid communication with the aerosol forming arrangement, and engaging the aligned stationary disc and the rotatable disc comprises engaging the aligned stationary disc and the rotatable disc with the housing, the aligned stationary disc defining three dispensing ports, each of the three dispensing ports being configured to correspond to one of the three chambers, and wherein the rotatable disc is configured to rotate to one of eight positions, so that the one or more dispensing ports of the rotatable disc are rotated into either the open position or the closed position relative to the three dispensing ports of the stationary disc in each of the eight positions.
