Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of atomizing device technology, and more particularly to an atomizing device. Background Technology

[0002] Atomizers are devices that convert liquids into tiny droplets and suspend them in a gas. They are increasingly popular due to their ease of use and ability to meet people's needs in various life scenarios. However, with the increased frequency of atomizer use, users have encountered some problems during transport. For example, the atomizing medium may leak out of the atomizer's casing due to external force or improper placement, contaminating the user's hands or soiling the bag or pocket used to store the atomizer. This not only causes inconvenience but also seriously affects the user experience. Summary of the Invention

[0003] In view of this, and to address the aforementioned technical problems, this application provides an atomizing device.

[0004] The atomizing device provided in this application includes a first housing, a second housing, an oil storage component, an atomizing core component, a connecting component, a first regulating component, and a second regulating component. The second housing is detachably connected to the first housing. The oil storage component is located inside the first housing and has an oil outlet. The atomizing core component is located inside the first housing and has an oil inlet. The connecting component is located inside the first housing and connects the oil outlet and the oil inlet. The first regulating component is located inside the first housing and controls the connection state between the oil outlet and the oil inlet. The second regulating component is located inside the second housing. When the second regulating component is in a first operating state, the oil outlet connects to the oil inlet; when the second regulating component is in a second operating state, the first regulating component blocks the connection between the oil outlet and the oil inlet.

[0005] In the atomizing device of this application, due to the detachable connection design between the first and second housings, if any part of the first main body portion to which the first housing belongs or the second main body portion to which the second housing belongs malfunctions, the user can repair or replace that main body portion individually without replacing the entire atomizing device, thus reducing the user's subsequent maintenance costs. Simultaneously, the user can disassemble the corresponding structure of the second housing and use only the corresponding structure of the first housing; in other words, the readily usable structure is simplified and lightweighted, thereby improving the user experience for this user group.

[0006] Furthermore, users can adjust the connection state of the first and second housings in the atomizing device of this application. After the first housing is connected to the second housing, the second control component in the second housing controls the first control component in the first housing to adjust the connection state between the oil outlet and the oil inlet. In this way, in the atomizing device, the atomizing medium in the oil storage component will not flow continuously to the atomizing core component, and the atomizing core component will not be constantly immersed in the atomizing medium flowing out of the oil outlet. That is, the second control component can help control the amount of atomizing medium that can be stored in the atomizing core component. When the amount of atomizing medium in the atomizing core component tends to be saturated, the first control component blocks the oil outlet and the oil inlet, so that the atomizing medium that can flow out of the oil outlet will no longer enter the atomizing core component from the oil inlet. Thus, the amount of atomizing medium stored in the atomizing core component is controllable.

[0007] When a user carries the atomizing device of this application, the atomizing medium in the atomizing core assembly can be stably stored in the atomizing core assembly, and will not flow out along the atomizing outlet of the atomizing device and contaminate the user's hands or the inner cavity of the container used to hold the atomizing device, thereby improving the user's user experience. Furthermore, by reducing the amount of atomizing medium wasted by the atomizing device, the total amount of atomizing medium consumed by the atomizing device during operation can be reduced, thereby saving the user's consumption costs.

[0008] In summary, the atomizing device of this application can prevent leakage of the atomizing medium by opening / closing the connection between the oil outlet and the oil inlet, while also effectively improving the portability and user experience of the atomizing device and reducing maintenance costs.

Detailed Implementation

[0023] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this application clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are merely some embodiments of this application, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort should fall within the scope of protection of this application.

[0024] Unless otherwise defined, the technical or scientific terms used herein shall have the ordinary meaning as understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this application pertains. The terms “an,” “a,” or “the,” as used herein, do not indicate a limitation of quantity, but are merely used to indicate the presence of at least one.

[0025] In this document, the term "embodiment" means that a particular feature, structure, or characteristic described in connection with an embodiment may be included in at least one embodiment of this application. The appearance of this phrase in various places throughout the specification does not necessarily refer to the same embodiment, nor is it a separate or alternative embodiment mutually exclusive with other embodiments. It will be explicitly and implicitly understood by those skilled in the art that the embodiments described herein can be combined with other embodiments.

[0026] The following will refer to the appendices in the embodiments of this application. Figure 1 -Appendix Figure 9 The technical solutions in the embodiments of this application are described clearly and completely.

[0027] Please refer to Figures 1 to 9This application provides an atomizing device 1000, which can be, but is not limited to, electronic cigarettes, atomizers, humidifiers, etc. Specifically, the atomizing device 1000 includes a first housing 1, a second housing 2, an oil storage component 3, an atomizing core component 4, a connecting component 5, a first control component 6, and a second control component 7. The oil storage component 3 stores an atomizing medium 2000. The second housing 2 is detachably connected to the first housing 1, so that the atomizing device 1000 includes two single-unit structures that can be used by the user. Thus, the detachable connection between the first housing 1 and the second housing 2 allows the user to repair or replace the main body part of the first housing 1 or the second housing 2 separately if either part fails, without replacing the entire atomizing device 1000, reducing the user's subsequent maintenance costs. At the same time, the user can disassemble the corresponding part of the second housing 2 and use only the corresponding part of the first housing 1. In other words, the user-friendly parts are simplified and lightweighted, improving the user experience for this user group.

[0028] The oil storage assembly 3 is located inside the first housing 1. The oil storage assembly 3 has an oil outlet 30, through which the atomizing medium 2000 in the oil storage assembly 3 can flow out. The atomizing core assembly 4 is located inside the first housing 1. The atomizing core assembly 4 has an oil inlet 40, through which the atomizing medium 2000 flowing out from the oil outlet 30 can enter the atomizing core assembly 4.

[0029] The connecting component 5 is located inside the first housing 1. The connecting component 5 connects the oil outlet 30 and the oil inlet 40. The atomizing medium 2000 flowing out from the oil outlet 30 can flow to the oil inlet 40 in the connecting component 5 and enter the atomizing core component 4 from the oil inlet 40.

[0030] The first control component 6 is located inside the first housing 1. When the first housing 1 is connected to the second housing 2, the first control component 6 is used to control the connection state of the oil outlet 30 and the oil inlet 40. The connection state of the oil outlet 30 and the oil inlet 40 includes two states: the oil outlet 30 and the oil inlet 40 are connected and the oil outlet 30 and the oil inlet 40 are not connected.

[0031] The second control component 7 is located inside the second housing 2. When the second control component 7 is in the first operating state, it controls the first control component 6 to connect the oil outlet 30 to the oil inlet 40. At this time, the first control component 6 does not block either the oil outlet 30 or the oil inlet 40, and the atomizing medium 2000 can flow out from the oil outlet 30 and flow to the oil inlet 40 in the connecting component 5, and then enter the atomizing core assembly 4 from the oil inlet 40. When the second control component 7 is in the second operating state, it controls the first control component 6 to block the oil outlet 30 and the oil inlet 40. At this time, the oil outlet 30 and the oil inlet 40 are no longer connected. After the atomizing medium 2000 flows out from the oil outlet 30, it cannot enter the atomizing core assembly 4 from the oil inlet 40. Alternatively, the atomizing medium 2000 is blocked in the oil storage component 3 and cannot flow out from the oil outlet 30.

[0032] It should be noted that in the atomizing device 1000, the atomizing core assembly 4 is directly connected to the atomizing outlet of the atomizing device 1000. When the atomizing core assembly 4 operates to atomize the atomizing medium 2000 stored inside it to generate atomized gas, the atomized gas flows out through the atomizing outlet for user use. To ensure that the atomized gas can be smoothly discharged from the atomizing outlet, in the atomizing device 1000, the atomizing outlet connects the internal space of the atomizing core assembly 4 to the external space of the housing (first housing 1 in this application) of the atomizing device 1000. Therefore, if the amount of e-liquid stored in the atomizing core assembly 4 is too large, the portion of the atomizing medium 2000 exceeding the storage capacity of the atomizing core assembly 4 may leave the atomizing core assembly 4 when the atomizing device 1000 is bumped or shaken, and flow out from the atomization outlet into the external space of the housing (first housing 1 in this application) of the atomizing device 1000, thereby contaminating the user's hands or the inner cavity of the container used to place the atomizing device 1000, causing user inconvenience and wasting the atomizing medium 2000, thus increasing the user's consumption costs.

[0033] In the atomizing device 1000 of this application, the user can adjust the connection state of the first housing 1 and the second housing 2 so that after the first housing 1 is connected to the second housing 2, the second control component 7 can control the first control component 6 to adjust the connection state of the oil outlet 30 and the oil inlet 40. In this way, in the atomizing device 1000, the atomizing medium 2000 in the oil storage component 3 will not flow to the atomizing core component 4 continuously, and the atomizing core component 4 will not be constantly immersed in the atomizing medium 2000 flowing out of the oil outlet 30. That is, the second control component 7 can help control the amount of atomizing medium 2000 that can be stored in the atomizing core component 4. When the amount of atomizing medium 2000 in the atomizing core component 4 tends to be saturated, the first control component 6 blocks the oil outlet 30 and the oil inlet 40 so that the atomizing medium 2000 that can flow out of the oil outlet 30 will no longer enter the atomizing core component 4 from the oil inlet 40. Thus, the amount of atomizing medium 2000 stored in the atomizing core component 4 is controllable.

[0034] When a user carries the atomizing device 1000 of this application, the atomizing medium 2000 in the atomizing core assembly 4 can be stably stored in the atomizing core assembly 4, and will not flow out along the atomization outlet of the atomizing device 1000 and contaminate the user's hands or the inner cavity of the container used to hold the atomizing device 1000, thereby improving the user's user experience. Furthermore, by reducing the amount of atomizing medium 2000 wasted by the atomizing device 1000, the total amount of atomizing medium 2000 consumed by the atomizing device 1000 during operation can be reduced, thereby saving the user's consumption costs.

[0035] Furthermore, since the first housing 1 and the second housing 2 of the atomizing device 1000 of this application are detachably connected, the user can carry only the first main body part of the first housing 1 for short periods of time. The first main body part stores the atomizing medium 2000 that can be used by the user for a short period of time, which can meet the user's usage needs for short trips. Thus, the first main body part is convenient to carry due to its reduced individual size. Moreover, due to the detachable connection design between the first housing 1 and the second housing 2, if any part of the first main body part of the first housing 1 or the second main body part of the second housing 2 fails, the user can repair or replace that main body part individually without having to replace the entire atomizing device 1000, thus reducing the user's subsequent maintenance costs.

[0036] In summary, the atomizing device 1000 of this application can prevent leakage of the atomizing medium 2000 by opening / closing the connection between the oil outlet 30 and the oil inlet 40, while also effectively improving the portability and user experience of the atomizing device 1000 and reducing maintenance costs.

[0037] It should be understood that when the atomizing device 1000 leaves the factory, the first control component 6 is sealed between the oil outlet 30 and the oil inlet 40, so the atomizing medium 2000 will not flow into the atomizing core component 4. A small amount of atomizing medium 2000 can be pre-stored in the atomizing core component 4 for user testing.

[0038] Please refer to Figures 3 to 6 In some embodiments, the first control component 6 includes a first valve core 60, and the connecting component 5 has a connecting channel 50 that connects the oil outlet 30 and the oil inlet 40. After the atomizing medium 2000 flows out of the oil outlet 30, it can flow through the connecting channel 50 to the oil outlet 30.

[0039] The first valve core 60 is located in the connecting channel 50. The second control assembly 7 includes a second energized body 70 and a second valve core 71. When the first housing 1 is connected to the second housing 2, the first valve core 60 and the second valve core 71 are arranged opposite to each other. The second energized body 70 is used to control the second valve core 71. The second energized body 70 has a mounting cavity 700, and the second valve core 71 is located in the mounting cavity 700. Figure 4 When the second control component 7 is in the first operating state, the second valve core 71 controls the first valve core 60 to be in the first position of the connecting channel 50, so that the oil outlet 30 is connected to the oil inlet 40, such as... Figure 3 When the second control component 7 is in the second operating state, the second valve core 71 controls the first valve core 60 to be located in the second position in the mounting cavity 700, so that the first valve core 60 blocks the oil outlet 30.

[0040] In other words, the second control component 7 is equivalent to the electromagnetic part of the solenoid valve, and the first valve core 60 in the first control component 6 is equivalent to the magnet or iron rod that can be attracted in the solenoid valve. When the second energized body 70 in the second control component 7 is energized, according to the magnetic effect of the current, the second energized body 70 can form an electromagnetic field. The second valve core 71 located in the electromagnetic field can be magnetized to generate another magnetic field. The two magnetic fields are superimposed to increase the total magnetic field strength of the second control component 7. Thus, when the second energized body 70 is energized, in the first energized state, the second control component 7 can attract the first valve body in the first control component 6, so that the first valve core 60 moves to the second position in the mounting cavity 700 to block the oil outlet 30. When the second energized body 70 is in the second energized state (which is different from the first energized state, such as being de-energized or having a different current direction), the magnetic field of the second control component 7 changes, and the interaction between the second control component 7 and the first valve core 60 changes. The first valve core 60 can move to the first position so that the oil outlet 30 connects to the oil inlet 40.

[0041] Among them, the first valve core 60 can move from the second position (e.g., under its own weight) under the action of its own weight. Figure 3 Move to the first position (e.g.) Figure 4), or interact with the second control component 7 to move to the first position (e.g. Figure 4 It can also be moved to the first position through the action of other structures (such as...). Figure 4 ).

[0042] For reference Figure 5 and Figure 6 In some embodiments, the second valve core 71 is positioned and assembled in a third position in the mounting cavity 700 so that the second valve core 71 is close to the inner wall of the mounting cavity 700 near the first housing 1, so that the second valve core 71 can be as close as possible to the first valve core 60. In this way, the second valve core 71 can better move in conjunction with the first valve core 60, so that there is a good magnetic attraction effect between the first valve core 60 and the second valve core 71.

[0043] In addition, the second valve core 71 can be stably connected to the cavity wall of the mounting cavity 700, so that the second valve core 71 can be stably installed in the mounting cavity 700. The second valve core 71 will not move in the mounting cavity 700 due to the energization of the second energized body 70. In this way, there will be no friction or impact between the second valve core 71 and the side wall of the mounting cavity 700, reducing the mutual wear or damage between the second valve core 71 and the side wall of the mounting cavity 700.

[0044] For reference Figure 5 and Figure 6 In some embodiments, the outer peripheral wall of the second valve core 71 abuts against the cavity wall of the mounting cavity 700. Thus, the volume of the second valve core 71 is equivalent to the volume of the mounting cavity 700. The second valve core 71 can fill the cavity space of the mounting cavity 700. Not only can the second valve core 71 be stably located in the mounting cavity 700, but the magnetic field generated after the second valve core 71 is magnetized can be maximized. Moreover, the end of the second valve core 71 can be maximized to be close to the first valve core 60, reducing the distance between the first valve core 60 and the second valve core 71. This allows the second control component 7 to better attract the movement of the first valve core 60, improving the interaction effect between the first control component 6 and the second control component 7.

[0045] For reference Figure 3 and Figure 4 In some embodiments, the second valve core 71 is movably mounted in the mounting cavity 700, such as... Figure 4 When the second control component 7 is in the first operating state, the second valve core 71 is located in the third position of the mounting cavity 700, and the distance between the second valve core 71 and the first valve core 60 is the first spacing, such as... Figure 3 When the second control component 7 is in the second operating state, the second valve core 71 is located in the fourth position of the mounting cavity 700, and the distance between the second valve core 71 and the first valve core 60 is the second gap, which is greater than the first gap.

[0046] In the above embodiments, the second valve core 71 can move within the mounting cavity 700 under the influence of the electromagnetic field generated by the second energized body 70, thereby adjusting the distance between the first valve core 60 and the second valve core 71. The smaller the distance between the first valve core 60 and the second valve core 71, the greater the attraction of the second control component 7 to the first valve core 60; conversely, the larger the distance between the first valve core 60 and the second valve core 71, the smaller the attraction of the second control component 7 to the first valve core 60. Therefore, the movable design of the second valve core 71 allows its position to be modified accordingly to correspond to the target position of the first valve core 60. This not only enables the first valve core 60 to move smoothly to the target position but also reduces the manufacturing cost of the second valve core 71 by reducing its volume and material usage, thereby reducing the manufacturing cost of the second control component 7.

[0047] For reference Figures 3 to 4 In some embodiments, the second control component 7 further includes a second reset member 72. One end of the second reset member 72 abuts against the inner wall of the mounting cavity 700 near the second housing 2, and the other end of the second reset member 72 is connected to the second valve core 71. When the second valve core 71 moves near the inner wall of the second housing 2, the second reset member 72 can be squeezed and deformed by the second valve core 71.

[0048] like Figure 4 When the second control component 7 is in the first operating state, the oil outlet 30 is connected to the oil inlet 40, and the second reset component 72 has a first compression amount, such as... Figure 3 When the second control component 7 is in the second operating state, the first valve core 60 blocks the oil outlet 30, and the second reset member 72 has a second compression amount, which is greater than the first compression amount. Thus, the second reset member 72 can be pushed by the second valve core 71 through its compressible deformation, allowing the second valve core 71 to move closer to the first housing 1 to approach the first valve core 60. The second reset member 72 can also push the second valve core 71 to move away from the first housing 1 and away from the first valve core 60 through its deformation restoring force. The second reset member 72 not only avoids interfering with the approaching movement between the first valve core 60 and the second valve core 71, but also applies a reset effect when the first valve core 60 and the second valve core 71 separate, preventing a sticking effect between them.

[0049] The second reset member 72 can be a spring or a rubber part. When the second reset member 72 is a spring, the second valve core 71 can be partially inserted into the spring body space.

[0050] It should be noted that when the second control component 7 is in the first operating state, the second reset component 72 can be in the natural state. At this time, the first compression amount of the second reset component 72 can be 0.

[0051] For reference Figures 3 to 6 In some embodiments, the first control component 6 further includes a first reset member 61. One end of the first reset member 61 abuts against the side wall of the connecting channel 50 near the second housing 2, and the other end of the first reset member 61 is connected to the first valve core 60. When the first valve core 60 moves close to the inner wall of the first housing 1, the first reset member 61 can be squeezed and deformed by the first valve core 60.

[0052] like Figure 4 and Figure 6 When the second control component 7 is in the first operating state, the oil outlet 30 is connected to the oil inlet 40, and the first reset component 61 has a third compression amount, such as... Figure 3 and Figure 5 When the second control component 7 is in the second operating state, the first valve core 60 blocks the oil outlet 30, and the first reset member 61 has a fourth compression amount, which is less than the third compression amount. Thus, the first reset member 61 can be pushed by the first valve core 60 through its own compressible deformation, allowing the first valve core 60 to move closer to the second housing 2 to approach the second valve core 71. The first reset member 61 can also push the first valve core 60 to move away from the second housing 2 and away from the second valve core 71 through its own deformation restoring force. The first reset member 61 not only avoids interfering with the approaching movement between the first valve core 60 and the second valve core 71, but also applies a reset effect when the first valve core 60 and the second valve core 71 separate, preventing a sticking effect between them.

[0053] The first reset member 61 can be a spring or a rubber part. When the first reset member 61 is a spring, the first valve core 60 can be partially inserted into the spring body space.

[0054] It should be noted that when the second control component 7 is in the first operating state, the second reset component 72 can be in the natural state. At this time, the third compression amount of the second reset component 72 can be 0.

[0055] For reference Figures 1 to 6In some embodiments, the atomizing device 1000 further includes a switch assembly 8 and a second control board 9 disposed within the second housing 2. The switch assembly 8, the second regulating assembly 7, and the second control board 9 are electrically connected. The second control board 9 is used to control the second regulating assembly 7 to be in a first operating state or a second operating state in response to the on / off state of the switch assembly 8. The second control board 9 can achieve electrical connection with the second regulating assembly 7 through the switch assembly 8. Thus, when the second control board 9 is electrically connected to the second regulating assembly 7, the second control board 9 has the ability to control the second regulating assembly 7. Therefore, the second control board 9 can indirectly control the first regulating assembly 6 by controlling the operating state of the second regulating assembly 7, so as to adjust the connection state between the oil inlet 40 and the oil outlet 30.

[0056] For reference Figures 3 to 6 In some embodiments, the atomizing device 1000 includes a first power supply 10 and a second power supply 11. The first power supply 10 is electrically connected to the atomizing core assembly 4 to provide the atomizing core assembly 4 with the electrical energy required for operation.

[0057] The second power supply 11 is located inside the second housing 2. The second power supply 11 is electrically connected to the switch assembly 8, the second regulating assembly 7, and the second control board 9. The switch assembly 8 is used to control the electrical conduction state between the second power supply 11 and the second regulating assembly 7 and the second control board 9. The second power supply 11 is used to provide the electrical energy required for the operation of the second regulating assembly 7 and the second control board 9. When the switch assembly 8 is turned on, the second power supply 11 is electrically connected to the second regulating assembly 7 so that the second regulating assembly 7 can control the first regulating assembly 6 to block between the oil outlet 30 and the oil inlet 40.

[0058] It should be noted that when the switch assembly 8 is turned on, the second power supply 11 is electrically connected to the second control assembly 7. At this time, the second control assembly 7 has the ability to control the first control assembly 6 to block the oil outlet 30 and the oil inlet 40, or it can control the first control assembly 6 not to block the oil outlet 30 and the oil inlet 40, so that the oil outlet 30 is connected to the oil inlet 40. In other words, when the switch assembly 8 is turned on, the second power supply 11 is electrically connected to the second control assembly 7. The first control assembly 6 will definitely be controlled by the second control assembly 7 to block the oil outlet 30 and the oil inlet 40. However, it can also be controlled by the second control assembly 7 or by other related components, and will not block the oil outlet 30 and the oil inlet 40, so that the oil outlet 30 and the oil inlet 40 are connected.

[0059] In the above embodiments, the atomizing device 1000 has a dual-electric structure, which means that the atomizing device 1000 has two independent power supply modules. The power in the first module is used to power the atomizing core component 4, and the power in the second module is used to power the second control component 7. In this way, the power required by the second control component 7 does not need to be provided by the first power supply 10, which simplifies the overall circuit structure design of the atomizing device 1000. It can meet the cooperative operation between the first control component 6 and the second control component 7, and also allows the first main body of the first power supply 10 to operate independently. When the user uses the first main body independently, the first main body can still perform atomization operation on the atomizing medium 2000 stored in the atomizing core component 4 to generate the atomized gas required by the user. When the user wants to travel conveniently, he / she can carry and use the first main body alone to reduce his / her own weight and improve the user experience.

[0060] like Figure 7 Furthermore, in this dual-electric atomizing device 1000, when the user uses and carries the first main body corresponding to the first housing 1 alone, the first control component 6 blocks the oil outlet 30 and the oil inlet 40, so that the oil outlet 30 is not connected to the oil inlet 40. That is, the first control component 6 can block the oil outlet 30 and the oil inlet 40 due to its own physical connection. In this way, the atomizing medium 2000 cannot flow from the oil outlet 30 to the oil inlet 40. At this time, the atomizing medium 2000 used by the atomizing core assembly 4 is the atomizing medium 2000 stored inside the atomizing core assembly 4 during this time period. In other words... The atomizing medium 2000 will no longer flow out of the oil storage component 3 through the connecting channel 50 and enter the atomizing core component 4. The amount of atomizing medium 2000 stored in the atomizing core component 4 will not keep increasing. Therefore, the amount of atomizing medium 2000 in the atomizing core component 4 will always be within the storage capacity range of the atomizing core component 4. The atomizing core component 4 can stably store this part of the atomizing medium 2000. Thus, when the user uses the first main body part alone, the atomizing medium 2000 will not flow out from the vaporized atomizing medium 2000 gas outlet, effectively improving the user's experience of using the first main body part of the atomizing device 1000.

[0061] For reference Figures 3 to 9In some embodiments, the atomizing device 1000 further includes a first power supply 10, a first control board 12, and a first connection pin 13 disposed within the first housing 1. The first power supply 10 is electrically connected to the atomizing core assembly 4 and the first control board 12, and the first connection pin 13 is electrically connected to the first control board 12. The end of the first connection pin 13 is exposed on the side wall of the first housing 1. The atomizing device 1000 also includes a second connection pin 14, which is electrically connected to a second control board 9. The end of the second connection pin 14 is exposed on the side wall of the second housing 2. The second connection pin 14 is used to electrically connect to the first connection pin 13. The first control board 12 and the second control board 9 are used to control the electrical connection state between the second power supply 11 and the first power supply 10, so that the second power supply 11 is electrically connected to the first power supply 10.

[0062] The first control board 12 and the second control board 9 can control the connection state between the first power supply 10 and the second power supply 11. When the first power supply 10 has insufficient energy storage, the second power supply 11 can connect to the first power supply 10 to replenish the first power supply 10. In other words, when the first main body has too low power, the second main body can act as a power bank and charge the first main body through the corresponding connection of the two connection pins.

[0063] In the above embodiments, the atomizing device 1000 has a dual-electric structure, which means that the atomizing device 1000 has two independent power supply modules. The power in the first module is used to power the atomizing core component 4, and the power in the second module is used to power the second control component 7 and to charge the first power supply 10. The second module can be understood as a power replenishment module. The second power supply 11 in the second module can charge and replenish the first power supply 10 in the first module.

[0064] When the user is using the atomizing device 1000, the user can manually turn on the switch assembly 8 so that the second control assembly 7 controls the first control assembly 6, so that the first control assembly 6 does not block the oil outlet 30 and the oil inlet 40. The atomizing medium 2000 in the oil storage assembly 3 will flow out from the oil outlet 30. When the atomizing medium 2000 enters the atomizing core assembly 4 from the oil inlet 40, it will replenish the storage in the atomizing core assembly 4.

[0065] In some embodiments, when a user uses the atomizing device 1000, when the atomizing core assembly 4 is in operation, the switch assembly 8 automatically turns on, and the atomizing medium 2000 in the oil storage assembly 3 flows out from the oil outlet 30, with a small portion flowing into the atomizing core assembly 4. When the atomizing medium 2000 stored in the atomizing core assembly 4 is consumed, the chip on the second control board 9 sends an electrical signal to the switch assembly 8 to control the switch assembly 8 to the first state, so that the second power supply 11 controls the second regulating assembly 7 to enter the first operating state. When the atomizing medium 2000 stored in the atomizing core assembly 4 is saturated, the chip on the second control board 9 sends an electrical signal to the switch assembly 8 to control the switch assembly 8 to the second state, so that the second power supply 11 controls the second regulating assembly 7 to enter the second operating state. This cycle repeats until the atomizing medium 2000 in the oil storage assembly 3 is finally consumed.

[0066] Furthermore, in some embodiments, when the switch assembly 8 is in the on state, the second control assembly 7, the second power supply 11, the switch assembly 8, and the second control board 9 are electrically connected, so that the second power supply 11 can achieve an electrical connection with the second control board 9 through the switch assembly 8.

[0067] The atomizing device 1000 has adjacent and alternating first and second operating cycles, so that the atomizing device 1000 can prevent leakage of the atomizing medium 2000 by periodically opening / closing the connection between the oil outlet 30 and the oil inlet 40. The duration of the first and second operating cycles is not limited. In the first operating cycle, the second control board 9 controls the second power supply 11 to transmit a first current to the regulating component, causing the second regulating component 7 to repel the first regulating component 6, thus sealing the oil outlet 30 and the oil inlet 40 between the two. In the second operating cycle, the second control board 9 controls the second power supply 11 to transmit a second current to the regulating component, causing the second regulating component 7 to attract the first regulating component 6, thus connecting the oil outlet 30 and the oil inlet 40. The first and second currents are in opposite directions.

[0068] For example, the switch assembly 8 can be a single-pole double-mode switch. The second power supply 11 is connected to the first and second paths, which are arranged in parallel. Both the first and second paths are connected in series with the second control assembly 7, the second power supply 11, the switch assembly 8, and the second control board 9. The difference is that the first path is connected to the positive and negative terminals of the second power supply 11, respectively, and the second path is connected to the negative and positive terminals of the second power supply 11, respectively. In this way, by switching the stationary contact connected to the moving contact in the single-pole double-mode switch, the direction of the current output from the second power supply 11 to the second control assembly 7 can be switched, so as to achieve the repulsive or attractive interaction between the second control assembly 7 and the first control assembly 6, thereby improving the self-adjustment of the atomizing device 1000, making the atomizing device 1000 more in line with user needs, and improving the user experience.

[0069] In some embodiments, the atomizing device 1000 further includes a sensor for sensing the connection state between the first housing 1 and the second housing 2, and the second control board 9 controls the operating state of the second control component 7 based on the electrical signal generated after the sensor is sensed.

[0070] For example, a magnetic attraction structure is provided between the first housing 1 and the second housing 2. The sensor is a light sensor, and its light-sensing part is located on the opposite side of the first housing 1 and the second housing 2. When the light brightness sensed by the light-sensing part is equal to or lower than a preset value, the first housing 1 and the second housing 2 are connected. The sensor generates a first signal, and the second control board 9 controls the second power supply 11 to output a first current to the second control component 7 according to the first signal. When the light brightness sensed by the light-sensing part is higher than the preset value, the first housing 1 and the second housing 2 are not connected. The sensor generates a second signal, and the second control board 9 controls the second power supply 11 to output a second current to the second control component 7 according to the second signal.

[0071] In some embodiments, the switch assembly 8 is a push-button switch or a toggle switch, which is manually pressed and turned on by the user. When the atomizing device 1000 is not in operation, the switch assembly 8 is turned on when the user presses or toggles it for the first time, and the second control assembly 7, the second power supply 11, the switch assembly 8 and the second control board 9 are electrically connected; when the user presses or toggles it for the second time, the switch assembly 8 is turned off, and the second control assembly 7, the second power supply 11, the switch assembly 8 and the second control board 9 are disconnected.

[0072] In some embodiments, the atomizing device 1000 is further provided with a charging indicator light, which is used to indicate the power level of the first power source 10 in the atomizing device 1000. For example, when the power level of the first power source 10 is low, the charging indicator light is red, and the user can choose to charge the first power source 10 according to the color of the charging indicator light. When the first power source 10 has sufficient power and the atomizing device 1000 is in operation, the charging indicator light does not light up. When the first power source 10 has sufficient power and the first power source 10 is in charging mode, the charging indicator light turns green, and the user can stop charging the first power source 10 at this time.

[0073] This application also discloses a method for controlling the operation of an atomizing device, the method comprising:

[0074] S1: Switch assembly 8 is turned on, and the first housing 1 and the second housing 2 are magnetically connected;

[0075] S2: The sensor senses the connection status of the first housing 1 and the second housing 2. When the first housing 1 is connected to the second housing 2, the sensor generates a sensing signal.

[0076] S3: When the second control board 9 receives the sensing signal, the second control board 9 controls the second power supply 11 to output the first current to the second regulation component 7. After a first duration, the second current is output, and after a second duration, the first current is output again, and so on.

[0077] Furthermore, the second control board 9 is electrically connected to the first control board 12 so that the second power supply 11 is electrically connected to the first power supply 10. When the first power supply 10 is low on power, the first control board 12 sends a charging signal to the second control board 9. After receiving the charging signal, the second control board 9 controls the second power supply 11 to charge the first power supply 10.

[0078] In other embodiments, the atomizing device 1000 is provided with a charging port for charging, which is connected to an external power source via a charging cable to charge the first power source 10 and / or the second power source 11.

[0079] Specifically, in some embodiments of this application, the atomizing device 1000 is an electronic cigarette, which includes a first housing 1, a second housing 2, an oil storage assembly 3, an atomizing core assembly 4, a connecting assembly 5, a first control assembly 6, and a second control assembly 7. The second housing 2 is detachably connected to the first housing 1, so that the electronic cigarette includes two single-unit structures that can be controlled and used by the user. The oil storage assembly 3 is located inside the first housing 1 and has an oil outlet 30, through which the atomizing medium 2000 in the oil storage assembly 3 can flow out. The atomizing core assembly 4 is located inside the first housing 1 and has an oil inlet 40, through which the atomizing medium 2000 flowing out from the oil outlet 30 can enter the atomizing core assembly 4.

[0080] The connecting component 5 is located inside the first housing 1. The connecting component 5 connects the oil outlet 30 and the oil inlet 40. The atomizing medium 2000 flowing out from the oil outlet 30 can flow to the oil inlet 40 in the connecting component 5 and enter the atomizing core component 4 from the oil inlet 40.

[0081] The first control component 6 is located inside the first housing 1. When the first housing 1 is connected to the second housing 2, the first control component 6 is used to control the connection state of the oil outlet 30 and the oil inlet 40. The connection state of the oil outlet 30 and the oil inlet 40 includes two states: the oil outlet 30 and the oil inlet 40 are connected and the oil outlet 30 and the oil inlet 40 are not connected.

[0082] The second control component 7 is located inside the second housing 2. When the second control component 7 is in the first operating state, it controls the first control component 6 to connect the oil outlet 30 to the oil inlet 40. At this time, the second control component 7 does not block either the oil outlet 30 or the oil inlet 40, and the atomizing medium 2000 can flow out from the oil outlet 30 and flow to the oil inlet 40 in the connecting component 5, and then enter the atomizing core assembly 4 from the oil inlet 40. When the second control component 7 is in the second operating state, it controls the first control component 6 to block the oil outlet 30 and the oil inlet 40. At this time, the oil outlet 30 and the oil inlet 40 are no longer connected. After the atomizing medium 2000 flows out from the oil outlet 30, it cannot enter the atomizing core assembly 4 from the oil inlet 40. Alternatively, the atomizing medium 2000 is blocked in the oil storage component 3 and cannot flow out from the oil outlet 30.

[0083] Furthermore, the atomizing device 1000 in each of the foregoing embodiments can be an electronic cigarette. Since the electronic cigarette in each embodiment has all the features of the atomizing device 1000 in each of the foregoing embodiments, the electronic cigarette also has the technical effects of the atomizing device 1000 in each of the foregoing embodiments, which will not be elaborated further here.
