[0003] Aerosol-generating devices employ a heat-without-combustion approach that effectively addresses existing problems. Their operating principle is to heat air to form a hot air flow, which then enters the interior of an aerosol substrate to fully heat the aerosol substrate, thereby generating an aerosol for the user to inhale. Preheating the aerosol substrate to maintain a constant temperature before aerosol generation can effectively improve the efficiency of aerosol generation. However, existing aerosol-generating devices lack a robust solution for preheating the aerosol substrate, resulting in a low efficiency in aerosol generation, significantly impacting the user experience.

[0024] Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meanings as commonly understood by those skilled in the art to which this application belongs. The terms used in the specification of the application are only for the purpose of describing specific embodiments and are not intended to limit this application. The terms "including" and "having" and any variations thereof in the specification and claims of this application and the above-mentioned drawings are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusions. The terms "first", "second", etc. in the specification and claims of this application or the above-mentioned drawings are used to distinguish different objects, not to describe a specific order.

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

[0026] The heat-not-burn aerosol generating device 100 generates smoke by heating air to form a hot air flow, which in turn heats the aerosol substrate 62, thereby generating an aerosol. However, when the aerosol is to be inhaled, the instantaneous temperature of the hot air flow does not reach the aerosol substrate 62 required for aerosol generation. Therefore, the aerosol substrate 62 must be maintained at a certain temperature before the user is ready to inhale the aerosol.

[0027] Heating the aerosol substrate 62 generally occurs in two stages: a preheating stage and a gas release stage. During the preheating stage, the heating assembly 3 preheats the aerosol substrate 62 to a specified temperature, but no aerosol is generated. During the gas release stage, the heating assembly 3 continues to heat the aerosol substrate 62. Since the aerosol substrate 62 has been sufficiently preheated, it can generate aerosol for the user to inhale.

[0028] The core of this application lies in the preheating scheme of the aerosol substrate 62. The air inside the aerosol generating device 100 is heated by the heating component 3 to form a hot air flow. At the same time, the vibration component 2 is continuously vibrated back and forth to make the hot air flow move up and down as a whole. Combined with the sealing structure inside the aerosol generating device 100, the hot air flow continuously flows between the vibration component 2, the heating component 3 and the aerosol substrate 62, thereby achieving preheating of the aerosol substrate 62.

[0029] In order to enable those skilled in the art to better understand the solution of the present application, the technical solution in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0030] Please see Figure 1 、 Figure 2 and Figure 5This embodiment provides an aerosol generating device 100, comprising a main body 1, a vibration component 2, a heating component 3, and an aerosol product 6, wherein the aerosol product 6 is connected to one end of the main body 1. An airflow heating area 7 is provided in the main body 1, and the vibration component 2 and the heating component 3 are provided in the airflow heating area 7. The heating component 3 is located on one side of the aerosol product 6, and the heating component 3 is used to heat the air in the airflow heating area 7 to form a hot airflow. The vibration component 2 is located on the side of the heating component 3 away from the aerosol product 6, and the vibration component 2 causes the hot airflow to flow back and forth as a whole in the airflow heating area 7. The aerosol generating device 100 further comprises a power supply control component 4, and the vibration component 2 and the heating component 3 are both electrically connected to the power supply control component 4.

[0031] Specifically, the airflow heating area 7 is the area between the vibration component 2 and the aerosol substrate 62. After the air is heated to form a hot airflow, the hot airflow enters the aerosol substrate 62 to heat the aerosol substrate 62. Then, the vibration component 2 vibrates repeatedly to make the hot airflow circulate in the heating component 3 and the aerosol substrate 62, thereby maintaining the aerosol substrate 62 at a certain temperature.

[0032] The aerosol product 6 includes a nozzle 61 and an aerosol substrate 62 connected to the nozzle 61. The main body 1 is provided with a connection portion 111 that communicates with the air flow heating area 7. One end of the aerosol substrate 62 of the aerosol product 6 is inserted into the connection portion 111. The connection between the aerosol product 6 and the connection portion 111 is an interference fit, forming an internal seal within the main body 1. In this embodiment, the connection portion 111 is configured as a hollow cylindrical body that fits the aerosol product 6. In some feasible embodiments, the connection portion 111 can also be configured as a trumpet shape, with a smaller top and a larger bottom, to increase the contact area between the aerosol substrate 62 and the air, thereby improving heating efficiency.

[0033] In this embodiment, the vibration component 2 and the heating component 3 are both electrically connected to the power supply control component 4. The working process of this embodiment in the preheating stage is as follows: before the user is ready to inhale the aerosol, the power supply control component 4 simultaneously supplies power to the vibration component 2 and the heating component 3. The heating component 3 heats the air in the main body 1 to form a hot air flow. After the vibration component 2 is powered on, it continues to vibrate back and forth. Because the main body 1 is a sealed structure, the hot air flow flows back and forth as a whole between the vibration component 2 and the aerosol substrate 62. The heated hot air flow enters the aerosol substrate 62 and heats the aerosol substrate 62, while taking away a portion of its own heat. The hot air flow flows downward under the action of the reciprocating vibration of the vibration component 2, and is heated again after passing through the first heating part 31. Then, it can continue to heat the aerosol substrate 62 during the subsequent upward flow. This process is repeated to achieve preheating of the aerosol substrate 62.

[0034] The aerosol substrate 62 mentioned in this embodiment is a solid product. This embodiment heats air to form a hot air flow, which then heats and bakes the aerosol substrate 62 to produce an aerosol. This not only satisfies the user's experience but also reduces the production of harmful substances during combustion, thereby minimizing harm to human health. The aerosol product 6 also includes a cooling element 63, located between the aerosol substrate 62 and the mouthpiece 61, which is a filter. As will be appreciated, the aerosol generated by the aerosol substrate 62 inherently carries heat, posing a risk of burns if inhaled directly by the user. Therefore, the aerosol generated by the aerosol substrate 62 must be cooled by the cooling element 63. To meet user needs and further enhance the user experience, the aerosol product 6 may also contain additives such as flavor capsules to impart different flavors to the aerosol.

[0035] See Figure 3-Figure 5 The vibration component 2 includes a connecting member 21, a mounting block 22 and a vibrating member 23. The vibrating member 23 is arranged in the middle position of the mounting block 22 and can vibrate axially along the central axis of the mounting block 22. The connecting member 21 is arranged on the outer periphery of the mounting block 22 and is connected to the power supply control component 4.

[0036] Specifically, connector 21 is made of conductive metal, mounting block 22 is equipped with a coil, and vibrator 23 can be a thin steel sheet or a vibrating membrane. The operating principle of vibration assembly 2 is that power control assembly 4 supplies power to vibration assembly 2 via connector 21. When the coil in mounting block 22 is connected to an alternating current, vibrator 23 vibrates back and forth, causing air to circulate within body 1.

[0037] A mounting portion 13 is radially provided inside the body 1, and the mounting block 22 abuts against the mounting portion 13. To better secure the vibration assembly 2, a mounting portion 13 is provided within the body 1 at a position corresponding to the vibration assembly 2. Specifically, the mounting portion 13 includes a first retaining ring 131 and a second retaining ring 132. The inner diameter of the second retaining ring 132 is smaller than that of the first retaining ring 131, so that the inner wall of the first retaining ring 131 and the upper end surface of the second retaining ring 132 form a mounting groove 133. The vibration assembly 2 is installed in the mounting groove 133 and abuts against the upper end surface of the second retaining ring 132.

[0038] The main body 1 includes an upper housing 11 and a lower housing 12. The vibration assembly 2 and the heating assembly 3 are disposed within the upper housing 11, and the power supply control assembly 4 is disposed within the lower housing 12. The upper housing 11 is detachably connected to the lower housing 12. In this embodiment, the main body 1 is disassembled into two parts to facilitate replacement of internal components, and the heating assembly 3 and the power supply control assembly 4 are separated to reduce the impact of heat generated by the heating assembly 3 during operation on the power supply control assembly 4.

[0039] A sealing member 14 is provided in the main body 1 . The sealing member 14 is disposed in the upper shell 11 and surrounds the heating component 3 and the vibration component 2 . One end of the sealing member 14 is disposed between the upper shell 11 and the lower shell 12 .

[0040] Specifically, in this embodiment, the seal 14 is configured to be cylindrical and adapted to fit within the interior of the upper shell 11. The seal 14 is inserted into the interior of the upper shell 11. A third retaining ring 141 extends radially outward from the bottom end of the seal 14. The third retaining ring 141 is used to achieve a seal between the upper shell 11 and the lower shell 12. When the upper shell 11 and the lower shell 12 are assembled, the upper shell 11 and the lower shell 12 respectively abut against the upper and lower end surfaces of the third retaining ring 141 and squeeze relative to each other to achieve a sealing effect. The seal 14 is a hollow structure, and a fourth retaining ring 142 is further provided near the top thereof. The fourth retaining ring 142 extends radially inward and has an interference fit with the outer wall of the connecting portion 111 of the body 1, so that the upward-flowing hot air flow flows from the connecting portion 111 to the aerosol substrate 62, thereby avoiding excessive and unnecessary energy loss and improving the preheating efficiency of the aerosol generating device 100. Four reinforcement plates 143 are also provided on the fourth retaining ring 142. These plates 143 are symmetrically arranged along the central axis of the seal 14 and serve to reinforce the fourth retaining ring 142. Furthermore, the distance between the reinforcement plates 143 and the connecting portion 111 gradually decreases from top to bottom. That is, the surfaces of the reinforcement plates 143 facing the connecting portion 111 are smooth, inclined surfaces 1431. When the upper housing 11 is sleeved onto the seal 14, the connecting portion 111 slides along the inclined surfaces 1431 into the fourth retaining ring 142. Therefore, the reinforcement plates 143 also serve as guides, facilitating assembly of the upper housing 11 and the seal 14.

[0041] It can be understood that in order to ensure the sealing effect, the mounting portion 13 in this embodiment can be set on the sealing member 14, that is, the sealing member 14 includes a first retaining ring 131 and a second retaining ring 132, and the inner wall of the first retaining ring 131 and the upper end surface of the second retaining ring 132 are surrounded to form a mounting groove 133, and the vibration component 2 is installed in the mounting groove 133 in the sealing member 14.

[0042] The purpose of providing the seal 14 within the body 1 is to ensure a seal within the body 1 and, in turn, to ensure a preheating effect on the aerosol substrate 62. It is understood that regardless of whether the upper shell 11 is connected to the lower shell 12 by inlay or threading, there will always be a gap at the connection. Therefore, one end of the seal 14 is positioned between the upper shell 11 and the lower shell 12. When the upper shell 11 and the lower shell 12 are connected, they simultaneously squeeze the seal 14 to achieve a sealing effect.

[0043] In this embodiment, the seal 14 also serves as a heat insulator. As will be appreciated, the seal 14 surrounds the heating assembly 3 and the vibrating assembly 2. The heat generated by the heating assembly 3 and the hot air flow formed by the heated air are both transferred within the seal 14 and do not come into contact with the outer shell of the main body 1. This ensures that the outer shell of the main body 1 remains at room temperature, reducing the risk of burns to the user.

[0044] The heating component 3 may include a first heating part 31, which is located in the upper shell 11 near the connecting part 111. A first supporting part 311 is provided on the first heating part 31, and the first heating part 31 is electrically connected to the power supply control component 4 through the first supporting part 311.

[0045] In this embodiment, the first heating part 31 and the first support part 311 are both made of conductive metal. The power supply control component 4 supplies power to the first heating part 31 through the first support part 311. After the first heating part 31 is powered on, it generates heat to heat the air in the main body 1.

[0046] The main body 1 can be provided with a bracket made of a heat-insulating material to fix the first heating part 31. Preferably, the first heating part 31 can also be supported and fixed by a first support portion 311. The first support portion 311 supports the first heating part 31 and is arranged near the connecting portion 111 but does not contact the connecting portion 111, thereby preventing the heat generated by the first heating part 31 after power is turned on from being directly transferred to the outer shell of the main body 1. The first heating part 31 is arranged in a grid shape, or a plurality of air holes are provided on the first heating part 31 to allow more hot air to contact the aerosol substrate 62, thereby improving the preheating efficiency of the aerosol generating device 100.

[0047] The heating component 3 may further include a second heating portion 32 , which is located between the first heating portion 31 and the vibration component 2 . A second supporting portion 321 is provided on the second heating portion 32 , and the second heating portion 32 is electrically connected to the power supply control component 4 via the second supporting portion 321 .

[0048] In this embodiment, the second heating part 32 and the second support part 321 are both made of conductive metal. The power supply control component 4 supplies power to the second heating part 32 through the second support part 321. When the second heating part 32 is powered on, it generates heat to heat the air in the main body 1.

[0049] The main body 1 can fix the second heating part 31 by providing a bracket made of heat-insulating material. Preferably, the second heating part 31 can also be supported and fixed by a second support part 321. The second support part 321 supports the second heating part 32 and is arranged between the first heating part 31 and the vibration component 2, and does not contact the first heating part 31 and the vibration component 2. The second heating part 32 is a heating wire, and both ends of the heating wire are connected to the power supply control component 4 through the second support part 321. The heating wire is spirally arranged to increase the contact area with the air and improve the heating efficiency. In some feasible embodiments, the second heating part 32 also includes a heating rod, which is made of an insulating and heat-conducting material. The heating wire is wrapped around the outer circumference of the heating rod. After the heating wire is energized and heated, it transfers heat to the heating rod, and then the heating wire and the heating rod jointly heat the air to improve the heating efficiency.

[0050] The preheating process of this embodiment is as follows: Before the user prepares to inhale the aerosol, the power control assembly 4 supplies power to the first heating portion 31. Once energized, the first heating portion 31 generates heat and heats the air within the main body 1, forming a hot air flow within the main body 1. Simultaneously, the power control assembly 4 supplies power to the vibration assembly 2. Once energized, the vibration plate of the vibration assembly 2 reciprocates axially, causing the hot air flow to flow toward the aerosol substrate 62. The hot air flow heats the aerosol substrate 62. However, since the temperature of the aerosol substrate 62 does not reach the required aerosol generation temperature, the aerosol substrate 62 is merely heated, and no aerosol is generated. After heating the aerosol substrate 62, the hot air flow removes some of the heat. Under the action of the reciprocating vibration of the vibration assembly 2, the hot air flow flows downward, passing through the first heating portion 31, where it is heated again. This process then continues to heat the aerosol substrate 62 during its subsequent upward flow. This process repeats, preheating the aerosol substrate 62.

[0051] It should be noted that, during the preheating stage, the present application does not restrict which heating component is used for preheating, that is, the present application can heat the air through the first heating part 31, or the second heating part 32, or the first heating part 31 and the second heating part 32 at the same time to form a hot air flow to preheat the aerosol substrate 62.

[0052] The workflow of this embodiment during the air release phase is as follows: When a user inhales the aerosol, the power control assembly 4 supplies power to the first heating section 31, the second heating section 32, and the vibration assembly 2. When energized, the first and second heating sections 31, 32 generate heat, heating the air within the body 1 to form a hot air flow. This hot air flow then heats the aerosol substrate 62 to produce an aerosol. Because the aerosol generating device 100 undergoes a preheating phase before the air release phase, the aerosol substrate 62 is sufficiently preheated. Therefore, as the first and second heating sections 31, 32 continue to heat the aerosol substrate 62, the aerosol substrate 62 is able to produce an aerosol for the user to inhale.

[0053] It should be noted that, in the air outlet stage, the present application does not restrict which heating component is used for heating, that is, the present application can heat the air through the first heating part 31, or the second heating part 32, or the first heating part 31 and the second heating part 32 at the same time to form a hot air flow, so as to heat the aerosol substrate 62 and thus generate an aerosol.

[0054] Preferably, the aerosol generating device 100 may also be provided with a microphone for sensing the flow rate of air within the main body 1 during inhalation. During the exhalation phase, when the user's puffing action is greater, resulting in a faster inhalation flow rate, the first heating unit 31 and the second heating unit 32 need to operate simultaneously to maintain the temperature of the hot air flow, thereby increasing the amount of heat required per unit time. The microphone senses the inhalation flow rate and simultaneously feeds this information back to the power control component 4. Based on this feedback, the power control component 4 controls the corresponding heating components to heat the aerosol substrate 62, ensuring the optimal performance of the aerosol generating device 100.

[0055] During the intervals between uses of the aerosol-generating device 100, the aerosol-generating device 100 is in a heat-keeping phase, which maintains the aerosol substrate 62 at a certain temperature so that the aerosol substrate 62 can quickly generate aerosol for the user to inhale during the user's next puff. The heat-keeping phase of the aerosol-generating device 100 follows the same workflow as the preheating phase. Because the aerosol substrate 62 is already sufficiently preheated, a small amount of aerosol is generated during the heat-keeping phase. This aerosol is then stored in the aerosol article 6, increasing the amount of aerosol during the user's next puff. This, in turn, increases the fullness of the aerosol inhaled by the user and enhances the user's experience.

[0056] The main body 1 is provided with an air inlet 5, which is located on the side of the vibration component 2 facing the heating component 3, and the air inlet 5 is provided with a one-way valve 51. Specifically, the air inlet 5 is provided on the outer wall of the upper shell 11 and passes through the upper shell 11 and the seal 14, so that the interior of the main body 1 is connected with the outside world. The air inlet 5 is located between the vibration component 2 and the first heating part 31 and is provided with a one-way valve 51. Air can only enter the main body 1 from the outside through the air inlet 5, thereby realizing a sealed structure inside the main body 1. It is understandable that when the user inhales the aerosol, a part of the air in the main body 1 will be taken away, so air needs to be provided from the outside to the main body 1 to form a hot air flow for heating the aerosol substrate 62.

[0057] The power supply control component 4 includes a power supply 41 and a main board 42 electrically connected to the power supply 41. The above-mentioned connecting member 21, the first support part 311 and the second support part 321 are all connected to the main board 42. The power supply 41 is used to supply power to the heating component 3, the vibration component 2 and the main board 42. The main board 42 is used to process information and control the operation of the heating component 3 and the vibration component 2.

[0058] In some feasible embodiments, the main body 1 also includes a temperature sensor, which can be arranged near the air inlet 5 to monitor the temperature of the air in the main body 1 in real time and feed it back to the main board 42. The main board 42 continuously adjusts the power supply current of the power supply 41 according to the feedback information to ensure the preheating and heating effect of the aerosol substrate 62.

[0059] The assembly process of the aerosol generating device 100 provided in this embodiment is roughly as follows: first, the power supply control component 4 is installed in the lower shell 12, and after the upper shell 11 is connected to the sealing component 14, the heating component 3 and the vibration component 2 are placed in the upper shell 11, and then the connecting part 21, the first support part 311 and the second support part 321 are connected to the main board 42, and then the upper shell 11 is fixed to the lower shell 12, and finally, one end of the aerosol product 6 provided with the aerosol substrate 62 is inserted into the upper shell 11 to complete the assembly.

[0060] In this embodiment, the heating assembly 3 heats the air to form a hot air flow. Under the continuous reciprocating vibration of the vibrating assembly 2, the hot air flow flows into the aerosol substrate 62 and heats the aerosol substrate 62. After heating the aerosol substrate 62, the hot air flow loses a certain amount of heat. The hot air flow then flows downward through the vibrating assembly 2, where it is heated again by the heating assembly 3 and continues to heat the aerosol substrate 62, thus preheating the aerosol substrate 62. Once the aerosol substrate 62 is fully preheated, further heating of the aerosol substrate 62 generates aerosol, effectively improving the efficiency of aerosol generation by the aerosol substrate 62 and enhancing the user experience.

[0061] Obviously, the embodiments described above are only some of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all of the embodiments. The preferred embodiments of the present application are given in the accompanying drawings, but they do not limit the patent scope of the present application. The present application can be implemented in many different forms. On the contrary, the purpose of providing these embodiments is to make the understanding of the disclosure of the present application more thorough and comprehensive. Although the present application has been described in detail with reference to the aforementioned embodiments, for those skilled in the art, it is still possible to modify the technical solutions described in the aforementioned specific embodiments, or to make equivalent replacements for some of the technical features therein. Any equivalent structure made using the contents of the present application specification and the accompanying drawings, directly or indirectly used in other related technical fields, is also within the scope of patent protection of the present application.
