[0003] In current atomization devices, in order to prevent the leakage of un-atomized liquid in the liquid storage component, liquid storage cotton is usually set in the liquid storage component to prevent the un-atomized liquid from shaking; at the same time, the atomized liquid is conducted to the heating component for atomization through the guiding liquid, and the aerosol formed by atomization is provided to the user through the airway in the device. However, the airway and the atomized liquid in the existing atomization device are not completely isolated. Since the heating component usually uses a heating wire or an etched metal sheet as a heating body, the contact area between the heating body and the guiding liquid is small. When the atomized liquid on the guiding liquid is not atomized in time, the liquid is easy to flow out of the device along the airway, or be sucked out by the user together with the aerosol, which seriously affects the user experience.

[0064] refer to Figure 1 , Figure 1 A schematic diagram of the structure of an atomizer provided for some embodiments of the present application. The atomizer includes an upper cover 100 with a suction nozzle and an atomizer assembly 200, wherein the upper cover 100 includes a main body 11 and an air outlet 12 protruding from the main body 11. The air outlet 12 serves as a suction nozzle, and the air outlet 12 is flat. An air outlet hole 13 is provided on the air outlet 12, and after the atomized liquid is atomized in the atomizer assembly 200, the gas is finally discharged from the air outlet 13. The atomizer device disclosed in the embodiments of the present application can be used for, but is not limited to, electronic cigarettes, medical atomizers, and beauty instruments.
[0065] In some embodiments of the present application, an atomizer device is provided in the present application, comprising an upper cover 100, an atomizer assembly 200 and a base 300; wherein the atomizer assembly 200 serves as an atomizer core structure of the atomizer device, and the upper cover 100 is connected to the top of the atomizer assembly 200. The base 300 is installed at the bottom of the atomizer assembly 200. Exemplarily, the upper cover 100, the atomizer assembly 200 and the base 300 are sequentially arranged in a straight line direction, so that the entire atomizer device has a long strip structure, so that the atomizer device is convenient for users to hold and improve the user experience.
[0066] refer to Figure 2-4 , Figure 2 A schematic diagram of the three-dimensional structure of the atomizer assembly and the base provided in some embodiments of the present application. Figure 3 for Figure 2 A partial enlarged schematic diagram of point A in the middle. Figure 4A cross-sectional view of an atomizer assembly provided for some embodiments of the present application. The atomizer assembly 200 includes a shell, a liquid guide, a heating portion 25 disposed on the liquid guide, and a base 22; wherein the shell is hollow inside to form a liquid storage tank 21 for accommodating atomized liquid (hereinafter referred to as liquid). The liquid guide is mounted on the base 22, the base 22 is mounted on the shell, and the liquid guide is located below the liquid storage tank 21. Exemplarily, a partition is provided in the shell, and the space inside the shell is separated by the partition to form two independent spaces arranged up and down, wherein the space located above is used as the liquid storage tank 21, and the space located below the liquid storage tank 21 is used as the gas collection tank 28. The atomizer assembly 200 also includes a liquid channel and an airflow channel. Exemplarily, the airflow channel is arranged in the liquid storage tank 21, and the liquid guide located below the liquid storage tank 21 is heated and atomized by the heating portion 25, and the gas rises and is transmitted from the airflow channel to the air outlet 13 of the upper cover 100 for discharge. The liquid channel is used to guide the liquid in the liquid storage tank 21 to the liquid guide. At present, common atomization methods include heating atomization and air circulation atomization. Compared with air circulation atomization, the equipment used for heating atomization is simpler and the manufacturing cost is lower. Heating atomization mainly heats the liquid flowing or stored in the liquid guide to the evaporation temperature through the heating part 25, so that the liquid is atomized into gas for the user to inhale.
[0067] It should be pointed out that the gas collecting bin and / or the liquid storage bin 21 are not limited to being arranged on the shell of the atomizing assembly 200. The liquid storage bin 21 can also be arranged on the upper cover 100, that is, the upper cover 100 is provided with a hollow space for accommodating liquid, or the upper cover 100 and the shell are spliced to form the liquid storage bin 21. Similarly, the gas collecting bin can also be selected to be arranged on the base 300. Specifically, a hollow gas collecting bin is provided at the top of the base 300 to guide the liquid into the gas collecting bin; or the base 300 and the shell are spliced to form the gas collecting bin. The common layout methods in which the liquid storage bin 21 and the gas collecting bin are arranged up and down should be regarded as specific embodiments of the present application. When the gas collecting bin is selected to be arranged on the base 300, the shell can be used only to form the liquid storage bin 21.
[0068] In some embodiments of the present application, a through hole 23 is provided on the bottom surface 211 of the liquid storage tank 21, and the liquid guide is arranged corresponding to the through hole 23, so that the liquid in the liquid storage tank 21 flows downward from the through hole 23 to the liquid guide. Specifically, the base 22 is arranged corresponding to the through hole 23. A liquid inlet 223 is provided on the top surface 2211 of the base 22, and the through hole 23 and the liquid inlet 223 are arranged correspondingly so that the through hole 23 and the liquid inlet 223 form a liquid channel. A hollow portion for accommodating the liquid guide is provided in the base 22, and the liquid inlet 223 extends into the hollow portion. The liquid guide is blocked at the opening position formed by the liquid inlet 223 on the hollow portion, and the liquid flows downward under the guidance of the liquid channel to the liquid guide, and is finally stored in the liquid guide.
[0069] refer to Figure 5-7 , Figure 5This is a cross-sectional view of the atomizer assembly 200 and the upper cover 100 provided in some embodiments of the present application. Figure 6 for Figure 5 A partial enlarged schematic diagram of point B in the middle. Figure 7 A front view of a partial structure of an atomizing assembly 200 in an atomizing device provided for some embodiments of the present application. In some embodiments of the present application, the liquid guide includes a first liquid guide 24 and a second liquid guide 26, and the first liquid guide 24 is blocked at the liquid inlet 223 to achieve the connection between the first liquid guide 24 and the liquid storage tank 21. The second liquid guide 26 is located below the first liquid guide 24. Among them, the first liquid guide 24 is used to accommodate the liquid flowing out of the liquid storage tank 21. In actual use, it is found that the heating element has low heating efficiency for the liquid storage part, and the liquid storage part collects the atomized liquid flowing out of the liquid storage tank 21. The existing heating element and the liquid storage part have a small contact area between the two, which makes it difficult for the atomization efficiency to maintain a balance between supply and demand with the liquid supply capacity. It is inevitable that liquid will flow out from the bottom of the liquid guide. In order to avoid leakage of un-atomized liquid dripping from the liquid guide, a second liquid guide 26 is arranged below the first liquid guide 24, and the second liquid guide 26 is used to collect the liquid dripping from the first liquid guide 24.
[0070] In the present application, the second liquid guide 26 is disposed below the first liquid guide 24 so that the second liquid guide 26 can be used to collect the liquid dripping from the first liquid guide 24. In this way, the liquid that has not been completely atomized is stored in the second liquid guide 26, and the liquid that has not been completely atomized is prevented from leaking from the liquid guide, thereby preventing the unatomized liquid from being discharged along with the atomized gas, and the problem of the user inhaling the gas and the liquid at the same time; or the liquid leaking from the atomization device, thereby improving the user experience.
[0071] In some embodiments of the present application, the first liquid guiding liquid 24 includes an atomizing surface 241 and a distal surface 242; wherein the atomizing surface 241 and the distal surface 242 are two side surfaces of the first liquid guiding liquid 24 that are arranged opposite to each other. The atomizing assembly 200 also includes a heating portion 25, which is attached to the atomizing surface 241 of the first liquid guiding liquid 24. The heating portion 25 is used to heat the liquid contained in the first liquid guiding liquid 24. Since the temperature on the atomizing surface 241 is higher, the closer the liquid in the first liquid guiding liquid 24 is to the atomizing surface 241, the higher the atomization efficiency is, and the atomized gas is discharged from one side of the atomizing surface 241. Specifically, the heating portion 25 is attached to the atomizing surface 241 from top to bottom along the flow direction of the liquid in the liquid guiding liquid to increase the contact area between the heating portion 25 and the atomizing surface 241. When the liquid flows downward, it is continuously heated by the heating portion 25 along the path, which can reduce the problem of imbalance between liquid supply and atomization caused by insufficient atomization. The atomizing device can improve the atomization efficiency. Exemplarily, the heating portion 25 has a mesh structure, so that the atomized gas can be discharged outward from the hollow meshes on the heating portion 25 .
[0072] When the heating part 25 heats the atomizing surface 241 of the liquid-conducting body, part of the heat generated by the heating part 25 is transferred to the liquid-conducting body, so that the temperature of the liquid-conducting body rises, thereby atomizing the liquid filled in the liquid-containing hole 243.
[0073] By setting the constituent material of the liquid-conducting body to be a heat-conducting material, the heating part 25 heats the liquid in the liquid-conducting body at the same time as the heating part 25 heats the liquid in the liquid-conducting body so that the liquid in the liquid-conducting body is heated and atomized, thereby making the heating part 25 and the liquid-conducting body perform double-layer atomization on the liquid flowing in the liquid-conducting body, thereby improving the atomization efficiency.
[0074] Exemplarily, the first liquid-conducting body 24 is a porous structure made of ceramic material, and is formed by tape casting. The good thermal conductivity of ceramic is utilized to increase the temperature on the surface of the ceramic liquid-conducting body by the heating unit 25 to accelerate the atomization rate of the liquid in the liquid-conducting body.
[0075] Furthermore, a liquid containing hole 243 is arranged on the liquid guiding body, and the liquid containing hole 243 is used to contain liquid, and the liquid in the liquid containing hole 243 is atomized when the heating part 25 is heated. Exemplarily, the liquid containing hole 243 forms a through hole penetrating the first liquid guiding body 24, and the extension direction of the liquid containing hole 243 is parallel to the atomization surface 241. When the atomization assembly 200 is used, the liquid starts from the top of the first liquid guiding body 24, and the liquid flows from top to bottom onto the first liquid guiding body 24 and flows along the surface of the liquid guiding body, and flows downward under the action of its own gravity to fill the liquid containing hole 243 on the first liquid guiding body 24.
[0076] Further references Figure 8 , Figure 8 for Figure 7 A partial enlarged schematic diagram of the middle C. In some embodiments of the present application, the liquid containing hole 243 is arranged on the liquid guiding body along the second direction y from the distal surface 242 toward the atomizing surface 241. The aperture of the liquid containing hole 243 gradually decreases along the second direction y.
[0077] In this solution, the aperture of the liquid containing hole 243 gradually decreases along the second direction y, and the heating part 25 is arranged on the side of the liquid-conducting body where the aperture of the liquid containing hole 243 is the smallest. Since the heat source is the heating part 25, the temperature of the liquid-conducting body closer to the heating part 25 is higher, and the temperature atomization rate is also faster. Moreover, since the aperture of the liquid containing hole 243 closer to the heating part 25 is smaller, the solution capacity of the liquid containing hole 243 is worse, which makes the liquid contained in the liquid containing hole 243 closer to the heating part 25 have a faster atomization rate, and the liquid contained in the liquid containing hole 243 is consumed faster.
[0078] Exemplarily, the liquid holding hole 243 includes a first liquid hole 2431 and a second liquid hole 2432, wherein the first liquid hole 2431 is arranged at a side close to the distal surface 242, and the second liquid hole 2432 is arranged close to the heating portion 25. The second direction y is parallel to the horizontal plane. Specifically, the aperture of the first liquid hole 2431 is larger than the aperture of the second liquid hole 2432. The liquid holding holes 243 whose apertures gradually decrease along the second direction y are subjected to capillary action, so that the liquid in the liquid holding holes 243 with large apertures, such as the first liquid hole 2431, replenishes the liquid toward the liquid holding holes 243 with small apertures, such as the first liquid hole 2431, so as to avoid the atomization surface 241 of the heating portion 25 from drying out the liquid.
[0079] The heating portion 25 is attached to the atomizing surface 241 of the first liquid guiding body 24. The second liquid guiding body 26 includes a liquid collecting section 262, and the liquid collecting section 262 is attached to the lower end 244 of the first liquid guiding body 24.
[0080] The lower end 244 of the first liquid-conducting body 24 is the lowest position of the first liquid-conducting body 24 in the vertical direction, and the lower end 244 of the first liquid-conducting body 24 is attached to the liquid-collecting section 262 so as to flow downstream to the lower end 244 of the first liquid-conducting body 24. The liquid-collecting section 262 is attached to the lower end 244 of the first liquid-conducting body 24, and the liquid-collecting section 262 collects the liquid sliding down from the lower end 244 of the first liquid-conducting body 24 inside thereof to prevent leakage.
[0081] In some embodiments of the present application, the first liquid-conducting liquid 24 is arranged along the first direction, and the first direction is arranged parallel to the atomization surface 241 of the first liquid-conducting liquid 24. The second liquid-conducting liquid 26 is arranged below the first liquid-conducting liquid 24, so that the first direction intersects with the second liquid-conducting liquid 26, and the second liquid-conducting liquid 26 is simultaneously connected to the heating portion 25. The second liquid-conducting liquid 26 is connected to the heating portion 25 so that the liquid collected on the second liquid-conducting liquid 26 is heated by the heating portion 25 and completely atomized to improve the utilization rate.
[0082] Exemplarily, the second liquid-conducting body 26 includes a liquid-conducting section 261 and a liquid-collecting section 262, wherein the liquid-collecting section 262 is a strip-shaped liquid-conducting structure extending along the second direction, and the liquid-collecting section 262 at least covers the lower end 244 of the first liquid-conducting body 24, so as to ensure that the liquid dripping from the lower end 244 of the first liquid-conducting body 24 can fall on the liquid-collecting section 262. A liquid-conducting section 261 extends upward from the surface of the liquid-collecting section 262, and the liquid-conducting section 261 is in surface contact with the heating part 25. The liquid-conducting section 261 is a flat plate-shaped structure, and the liquid-conducting section 261 is attached to the heating working surface of the heating part 25. Specifically, the heating working surface of the heating part 25 is the surface of the heating part 25 attached to the atomizing surface 241 or the other surface of the heating part 25 that is relatively attached to the atomizing surface 241.
[0083] Further, the liquid guiding section 261 is sandwiched between the atomizing surface 241 of the first liquid guiding body 24 and the heating part 25. Exemplarily, a clearance opening is provided at one end of the first liquid guiding body 24 and the heating part 25 contacting the second liquid guiding body 26. The liquid guiding section 261 is embedded in the clearance opening, so that the liquid guiding section 261 is sandwiched between the first liquid guiding body 24 and the heating part 25.
[0084] Specifically, a notch is provided on the lower end 244 of the first liquid guiding liquid 24 and the bottom end 251 of the heating part 25, and the heating part 25 is attached to the first liquid guiding liquid 24, so that the notch of the lower end 244 and the bottom end 251 are combined to form a clearance opening. The liquid guiding section 261 is embedded in the clearance opening, so as to reheat and atomize the liquid collected by the second liquid guiding liquid 26 from the first liquid guiding liquid 24. Specifically, the liquid collected by the liquid collecting section 262 on the second liquid guiding liquid 26 will soak the liquid guiding section 261, and the liquid guiding section 261 is close to the heating part 25, so as to facilitate and quickly atomize the liquid on the liquid guiding section 261. In addition, the liquid guiding section 261 is also located on one side of the atomization surface 241 of the first liquid guiding liquid 24. When the liquid supply on the second liquid guiding liquid 26 is insufficient, the liquid containing hole 243 on the first liquid guiding liquid 24 will replenish the liquid guiding section 261 with liquid to prevent the liquid guiding section 261 from drying out.
[0085] Exemplarily, the second liquid-conducting material 26 is liquid-conducting cotton, so that the second liquid-conducting material 26 can easily fit the shapes of the first liquid-conducting material 24 and the heating part 25 , thereby ensuring the contact area between the second liquid-conducting material 26 and the first liquid-conducting material 24 and the heating part 25 .
[0086] In other embodiments, the liquid-conducting section 261 may also be attached to the side of the heating portion 25 facing away from the first liquid-conducting member 24 .
[0087] In some embodiments of the present application, in this solution, the base 22 includes a bracket 221 and a pipeline 222 for transmitting gas. The liquid guide is installed on the bracket 221. The pipeline 222 is arranged in the liquid storage tank 21, and the pipeline 222 is connected to the bracket 221. A gas pipeline 225 extending along the vertical direction x is opened in the pipeline 222, so that the gas in the gas pipeline 225 flows along the vertical direction x.
[0088] The interior of the bracket 221 is hollow to form a hollow cavity 226, the gas pipeline 225 is connected to the hollow cavity 226, and the first liquid guide 24 is accommodated in the hollow cavity 226. The atomization surface 241 of the first liquid guide 24 is close to the pipeline 222, so that the generated atomized gas is close to the pipeline 222, so that the atomized gas can enter the gas pipeline 225.
[0089] Furthermore, the through hole 23 is in the shape of an elongated strip, and the bracket 221 and the pipeline 222 are integrally formed and combined. The top surface 2211 of the bracket 221 is arranged corresponding to the through hole 23, and the pipeline 222 extends from the through hole 23 into the liquid storage tank 21. By integrating the bracket 221 and the pipeline 222, it is convenient to install the base 22 below the liquid storage tank 21. In this embodiment, the top surface 2211 of the bracket 221 is arranged corresponding to the through hole 23 so that the shape of the top surface 2211 of the bracket 221 is consistent with the shape of the through hole 23. When the base 22 and the liquid storage tank 21 are installed, the top surface 2211 of the bracket 221 is embedded in the through hole 23, and the elongated through hole 23 and the top surface 2211 are convenient for sealing the two to prevent liquid leakage from the liquid storage tank 21. On the other hand, the bracket 221 and the pipeline 222 are integrally formed and combined, and the assembly can be completed after the bracket 221 is connected to the through hole 23, thereby simplifying the assembly process, improving the installation accuracy, and making the atomization assembly 200 more convenient to use.
[0090] The bracket 221 is accommodated in the gas collecting bin 28, and the hollow cavity 226 is connected to the internal space of the gas collecting bin 28. The gas collecting bin 28 is used to store excess atomized gas. The liquid flowing on the first liquid guiding liquid 24 is atomized by the heating part 25 in this solution to increase the contact area between the heating part 25 and the first liquid guiding liquid 24, thereby improving the atomization efficiency, which makes it possible to produce a large amount of atomized gas per unit time in this solution. When the amount of atomized gas generated in the atomizing assembly 200 is large, that is, the amount of atomized gas generated is greater than the amount of gas discharged, the generated atomized gas diffuses outward to the gas collecting bin with a larger volume, thereby playing a buffering role for the atomized gas.
[0091] refer to Fig. 9 , 10 , Fig. 9 A cross-sectional view of a partial structure of an atomization device provided in some embodiments of the present application, Fig.10 for Fig. 9A partial enlarged schematic diagram at D in the middle. With the long-term use of the atomizer, if it is difficult for external air to be replenished into the gas collecting bin 28, it is easy to cause the air pressure in the gas collecting bin 28 to gradually decrease, and the atomizer will be difficult to work normally. Therefore, an air pressure balancing part is also provided in the gas collecting bin 28, through which the external gas is replenished into the gas collecting bin 28, so that the air pressure in the gas collecting bin 28 is balanced with the external atmosphere, so that the atomizer can smoothly guide the gas out of the air outlet 13 of the upper cover 100. Specifically, the air pressure balancing part includes an air inlet 227, and the air inlet 227 is located below the liquid collecting section 262 of the second liquid guiding liquid 26, so that the air inlet 227 passes through the bracket 221 and the bottom plate 281 of the gas collecting bin 28, and an air inlet channel connected to the outside is provided in the base 300, and the air inlet 227 is connected to the air inlet channel of the base 300, so that air is replenished into the gas collecting bin 28 through the air inlet 227. On the other hand, the air inlet 227 is disposed on the liquid collecting section 262 so that the air inlet 227 is close to the first liquid guiding liquid 24 and the heating portion 25 so that the external air can be quickly mixed with the atomized aerosol to form an inhalable gas.
[0092] Exemplarily, the number of the first liquid-conducting bodies 24 is at least two, the distal end surface 242 of the first liquid-conducting bodies 24 is attached to the inner wall of the hollow cavity 226 , and the plurality of first liquid-conducting bodies 24 circumferentially surround the outside of the pipeline 222 .
[0093] Specifically, the number of the first liquid guides 24 is two, and the first liquid guides 24 are symmetrically arranged with the axis of the pipeline 222 as the center. The atomization surface 241 of the first liquid guide 24 gradually deviates from the axis of the pipeline 222 along the first direction, so that the space of the hollow cavity 226 located between the first liquid guides 24 gradually expands along the first direction, that is, the area of the hollow cavity 226 closer to the gas pipeline 225 is larger. The hollow cavity 226 between the first liquid guides 24 is in a V-shaped structure. The temperature of the atomized gas after heating is high, and it is easy to cause burns if the user inhales the high-temperature gas. Since the hollow cavity 226 between the first liquid guides 24 is in a V-shaped structure, the area of the hollow cavity 226 closer to the gas pipeline 225 is larger. The heating part 25 has the same atomization effect on each part of the atomization surface of the first liquid guide 24, so that when the atomization device is atomized, the hollow cavity 226 closer to the gas pipeline 225 has more air and gas to mix, and the temperature of the air is much lower than the temperature of the heated atomized gas. By using more air to neutralize the high-temperature atomized gas and lower the inhaled gas temperature, users can avoid being scalded by the high-temperature gas. This improves the user experience. Furthermore, if Figure 5 , 6 As shown, the atomizing surface 241 of the first liquid guiding liquid 24 is inclined relative to the flow direction x of the gas in the gas pipeline 225, and the atomizing surface 241 and the flow direction x form an angle α. When the angle α is larger, the difference in area of the hollow cavity 226 at any two positions along the first direction is larger.
[0094] In another example of the present application, the number of the first liquid guiding member 24 is one, and the first liquid guiding member 24 surrounds the pipe 222, so that the first liquid guiding member 24 is in an inverted frustum structure, and a hollow cavity 226 of the same frustum structure is arranged in the frustum structure, and the heating portion 25 is attached to the annular side surface of the hollow cavity 226. In this example, the area of the hollow cavity 226 gradually increases along the vertical airflow direction x.
[0095] In some embodiments of the present application, the upper cover 100 covers the liquid storage bin 21 to prevent impurities in the air from floating into the liquid storage bin 21 and contaminating the liquid in the liquid storage bin 21. Specifically, the upper cover 100 covers the opening of the liquid storage bin 21, thereby covering the liquid storage bin 21 to prevent impurities in the air from floating into the liquid storage bin 21 and contaminating the liquid in the liquid storage bin 21. For example, Figure 4 As shown, a through-hole 13 is provided on the upper cover 100. The pipeline 222 is connected to the air outlet 13 to form an airflow channel, so that the atomized gas in the atomization assembly 200 can be discharged from the air outlet 13. In contrast to the airflow channel, the through hole 23 and the liquid inlet 223 form a liquid channel for the liquid storage tank 21 to transport liquid to the first liquid guide 24. Through the independent airflow channel and liquid channel, the liquid in the liquid storage tank 21 flows downward under its own weight, while the atomized gas in the gas collection tank is guided out from the side of the atomization surface 241 on the first liquid guide 24 and flows vertically upward along the airflow channel. The airflow and liquid are not only transmitted in different channels, but also move in opposite directions to facilitate gas-liquid separation and avoid liquid being mixed in the atomized gas to affect the user experience.
[0096] Furthermore, a stopper 224 is formed on the side surface of one end of the pipe 222 away from the bracket 221, so that a ring-shaped protrusion structure is formed outside the pipe 222. The size of the stopper 224 is consistent with the air outlet 13. When the pipe 222 extends into the air outlet 13, the stopper 224 contacts the inner wall of the air outlet 13. The stopper 224 is used as a barrier, so that when air is sucked at the position of the air outlet 13, only the gas in the gas receiving space can be sucked out.
[0097] In some embodiments of the present application, Fig. 9 , 10 As shown, the electrode 27 of the heating part 25 is connected to the power module to supply power to the heating part 25. The battery module is mounted on the base 300, the base 300 is connected below the atomizing assembly 200, and the electrode 27 is connected between the atomizing assembly 200 and the base 300. When the electrode 27 is plugged into the base 300, the heating part 25 is electrically connected to the battery module, so that the atomizing device can perform atomization work normally.
[0098] Exemplarily, the electrode 27 includes a conductive end 271 and a connector 272, the conductive end 271 is electrically connected to the battery module, and the connector 272 is electrically connected to the heating part 25. A mounting hole for the connector 272 is formed by penetrating the bracket 221 and the bottom plate 281 of the gas collecting bin 28, and the connector 272 is inserted into the mounting hole. An electrode sheet (not shown) is provided in the mounting hole, and the wire connected to the electrode sheet passes through the mounting hole to connect to the heating part 25. When the connector 272 is inserted into the mounting hole, the connector 272 contacts the electrode sheet to achieve an electrical connection. At the same time, the mounting hole is arranged close to the air inlet 227. After the connector 272 is inserted into the mounting hole, air can pass through the gap between the connector 272 and the electrode sheet, thereby achieving air pressure balance between the gas collecting bin 28 and the outside atmosphere.
