Atomization control unit and a portable atomizing apparatus having the same

Abstract

A portable atomizing apparatus according to the present invention includes a battery case, an atomizing device, a body case, a control unit, and a suction adjustment. The battery case receives a battery, and the atomizing device includes a heating member electrically connected to the battery for generating heat to atomize a source material. The body case is connected between the battery case and the atomizing device. Besides, the control unit is mounted inside the body case, electrically connected to the battery and to the heating member, so that the control unit receives an electrical power from the battery to control the output signal delivered to the heating member. Also, the suction adjustment opens or closes an air inlet of the atomizing apparatus so as to adjust the amount of air entering the atomizing apparatus.

Description

TECHNICAL FIELD[0001]The present invention relates to an atomizing technique, and more particularly, an atomization control unit capable of controlling atomization of a source material and a portable atomizing device having the same.BACKGROUND ART[0002]A portable atomizing device is developed to be easily carried by a man to satisfy one's taste by inhaling smoke generated by the portable atomizing device or to fulfill other purposes. An example of portable atomizing devices may be an electronic cigarette, where the electronic cigarette is used as a replacement of cigarette smoking or to aid smoking cessation. Since a method of using the electronic cigarette and an effect of using the same are similar to those of a normal cigarette, a user may receive impression of smoking a normal cigarette by smoking the electronic cigarette.[0003]In terms of purposes of using the portable atomizing device, factors regarding taste may include not only materials included in source material, but also...

AI Technical Summary

Benefits of technology

The present invention is a portable atomizing device that uses a heating element to atomize liquid. A battery or resistance of the heating element can be used to maintain a constant power output, which solves issues of short-circuit, insufficient power, and changes in fragrance and taste. The device also allows users to control the output signal according to their preference. The amount of outside air to mix with the fuel can be easily adjusted using a suction control unit, and the device is designed to be environmentally friendly and cost-effective to manufacture. Users can operate the device using a touch-type switch, improving user convenience.

Problems solved by technology

In this case, the user may change expendable parts, such as an atomizer, a cartridge, and a battery, and thus there may be additional costs for a user to use the portable atomizing device.

Here, when a user inhales smoke for long period of time, a heating element may be damaged by an overheated the heating element inside an atomizer, or taste or fragrance of smoke may be deteriorated due to excessive combustion of a liquid source material inside the atomizer.
