Benefits of technology

[0010]Assembling is avoided; automated operation and short delivery are guaranteed; the porosity of a porous material of the same volume can be adjusted according to demands on liquid stock. After being absorbed, liquids do not spill over, and the devices do not feel wet when touched with hands and have an obvious anti-leak effect. The devices can be molded in diversified shapes, and are low in cost. The materials are environmentally-friendly and degradable. When storing a liquid of the same volume, the porous materials are small in size, light in weight and capable of saving transport expenses. Different types of liquids vary with molecule diameters and degree of freedom of movement, so porous materials of different apertures have different capacities of adsorbing different liquids. Materials with two or more layers of different porosities can be made of porous material powder of different grain sizes, and layers of different porosities store different liquids.

Problems solved by technology

In particular, liquids such as tobacco tar, essential oils and perfumes will cause a lot of troubles when spilling over.
Such liquid storage unit / cabin is not completely sealed, and the stored liquid capable of being atomized, namely the tobacco tar, is flowing, so the storage time is limited.
In addition, after the liquid capable of being atomized, namely the tobacco tar, in the liquid storage unit / cabin is completely atomized, it is inconvenient to fill tobacco tar into the liquid storage unit / cabin.
In a word, existing devices such as the liquid storage unit / cabin that liquefies a liquid capable of being atomized need to be assembled and experience a long production cycle, and the liquid storage unit / cabin filled in with liquids have a high risk of leaking liquids during long-term storage, transport and use.

embodiment 1

[0017]This embodiment provides a liquid storage device for storing tobacco tar in an electronic cigarette. As shown in FIG. 1, in this embodiment, the liquid storage device 100 is of an entirely columnar shape, molded by a porous material. The porous material may be selected from ceramic materials such as silicon carbide and aluminum oxide, and porous metallic materials such as stainless steel, copper and nickel. The porosity of the porous material is 5-100 μm. The tobacco tar is stored in pores of the porous material. The tobacco tar enters the pores of the porous material in the capillary principle and siphon principle. In practice, the liquid stock can be adjusted by adjusting the porosities of the porous materials. Generally, the porosity can be 40%, and can be selected within a range of 20%-70% according to demands.

[0018]In this embodiment, it is very easy to place the liquid storage device for storing the tobacco tar. The liquid storage device for storing the tobacco tar is di...

embodiment 2

[0021]This embodiment provides a liquid storage device for storing different liquids at the same time. As shown in FIG. 2, in this embodiment, the liquid storage device 200 is comprised of three layers upon demands; different layers have different porosities; the pores of different layers are increasingly increased or reduced in aperture, and are used to store different liquids. As shown in FIG. 2, the liquid storage device in this embodiment is comprised of three layers, respectively an inner liquid storage core 201 that is located in the center and has a aperture of 5-50 μm, a middle liquid storage layer 202 that is located outside the liquid storage core, has an aperture of 30-70 μm and is used to store liquids with a relatively small molecular groups, and an outer liquid storage layer 203 that is located on the outer layer, has an aperture of 50-100 μm and is used to store liquids with a relatively large molecular groups. It is well known that different liquid molecules have dif...

Abstract

The invention relates to a liquid storage method and storage devices. The method involves liquid storage with porous materials. The storage devices in different shapes are made of the porous materials, and liquids are stored in pores. The method and devices for storing liquids avoid assembling, and feature automated operation and short delivery. The porosity of a porous material of the same volume can be adjusted according to demands on liquid stock. After being absorbed, liquids do not spill over, and the devices do not feel wet when touched with hands and have an obvious anti-leak effect. The devices can be molded in diversified shapes, and are low in cost. The materials are environmentally-friendly and degradable. When storing a liquid of the same volume, the porous materials are small in size, light in weight and capable of saving transport expenses.

Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTIONTechnical Field[0001]The invention relates to the field of usage of porous materials, in particular to a method for storing liquids capable of being atomized with porous materials and devices for storing liquids capable of being atomized using the method.Description of Related Art[0002]At present, liquid storage materials are usually containers including cups and bottles. Such liquid containers, in particular cup type containers, need to be particularly carefully handled to prevent stored liquids from spilling over during transport because they have a relatively large opening at the top. In particular, liquids such as tobacco tar, essential oils and perfumes will cause a lot of troubles when spilling over.[0003]At present, some liquids capable of being atomized, for example, the tobacco tar, essential oils and perfumes, are usually used in an atomizing way. In particular, the tobacco tar is a main raw material of an electronic cigarette, and a liquid stora...
