Cover and aerosol generation device

Abstract

This cover 10 is mounted in a body having a heating unit that heats a base material containing an aerosol source, the cover comprising: an external sensor 31 that detects external information, which is separate from internal information related to the state of the body and internal information related to the state of the cover; a display unit 80 that displays information; and a display control unit 62 that causes the display unit 80 to display the external information detected by the external sensor 31 and/or information acquired from an external device other than the cover 10.

1 . A cover attachable to a body including a heater that heats a substrate containing an aerosol source, the cover comprising:
 a sensor that detects external information other than internal information related to a state of the body and internal information related to a state of the cover;   a display that displays information; and   a display controller that causes the display to display at least the external information detected by the sensor or information acquired from an external device other than the cover.   
     
     
         2 . The cover according to  claim 1 , further comprising:
 a plurality of connectors connectable to the body,   wherein the display is provided between the plurality of connectors, and   wherein the sensor is provided at one of ends in a centerline direction of a column-shaped holder formed in the body to accommodate a portion of the substrate.   
     
     
         3 . The cover according to  claim 2 , wherein the sensor is closer to an opening of the holder than the plurality of connectors in the centerline direction. 
     
     
         4 . The cover according to  claim 1 , further comprising:
 a memory that stores a control sequence specifying a temporal change in a target temperature of the heater during heating of the heater,   wherein the display controller causes the display to display information related to the control sequence stored in the memory.   
     
     
         5 . The cover according to  claim 4 , wherein the memory stores a plurality of control sequences, and
 wherein one control sequence is selectable from the plurality of control sequences displayed by the display.   
     
     
         6 . The cover according to  claim 1 , wherein the sensor detects a temperature or a humidity, and
 wherein the display controller causes the display to display a notification that a temperature or a humidity is suitable for storage of the substrate based on at least the temperature or the humidity detected by the sensor, or a temperature or a humidity acquired from the external device.   
     
     
         7 . The cover according to  claim 1 , wherein the sensor detects a heart rate or a pulse rate, and
 wherein the display controller causes the display to display a warning when the heart rate or the pulse rate detected by the sensor is outside a predetermined range.   
     
     
         8 . An aerosol generation device comprising:
 a body including a heater that heats a substrate containing an aerosol source; and   the cover according to  claim 1  attached to the body.
