Aerosol generating device having a plurality of sensors
An aerosol generating device according to one embodiment includes: a housing that forms an exterior of the aerosol generating device and includes an opening into which a cigarette is inserted; a heater that generates an aerosol by heating the cigarette; a battery that supplies power to the heater; a temperature sensor that senses a temperature of an internal component of the aerosol generating device; and a controller that prevents abnormal operation of the aerosol generating device based on the temperature of the internal component sensed by the temperature sensor.
1. An aerosol generating system comprising:
an aerosol generating device having a first accommodation space into which an aerosol generating article including a susceptor can be inserted; and
a cradle having a second accommodation space in which the aerosol generating device can be accommodated,
wherein the aerosol generating device includes:
a battery that is to be charged by power received from the cradle while the aerosol generating device is accommodated in the second accommodation space;
a first temperature sensor that senses a temperature of the battery;
an induction coil that receives power from the battery to form a magnetic field in the first accommodation space;
a controller electrically connected to the induction coil and arranged on a printed circuit board; and
a second temperature sensor that senses a temperature of a point adjacent to the first accommodation space,
wherein the controller detects abnormal operation of the aerosol generating device based on a temperature sensed by at least one of the first temperature sensor and the second temperature sensor, and when the abnormal operation is detected, controls the aerosol generating device to output an overheating notification or stops operation of the aerosol generating device.
2. The aerosol generating system of claim 1 , wherein, when the sensed temperature is equal to or higher than a first preset temperature, the controller controls the aerosol generating device to output the overheating notification or stops the operation of the aerosol generating device.
3. The aerosol generating system of claim 2 , wherein, when the sensed temperature is equal to or higher than the first preset temperature and lower than a second preset temperature higher than the first preset temperature, the controller controls the aerosol generating device to output the overheating notification, and
when the sensed temperature is equal to or higher than the second preset temperature, the controller stops the operation of the aerosol generating device.
4. The aerosol generating system of claim 1 , wherein the first temperature sensor and the second temperature sensor are temperature sensors of different types.
5. The aerosol generating system of claim 1 , wherein the induction coil is a solenoid wound along the first accommodation space, and
the induction coil includes at least one of copper, silver, gold, aluminum, tungsten, zinc, and nickel.
