Abstract

The application discloses an atomizer and an electronic atomization device. The atomizer comprises an atomizing core, a liquid storage cup and a turbine. The top of the liquid storage cup is provided with a liquid outlet. The atomizing core is close to the top side of the atomizer relative to the liquid storage cup. The atomizing core is in communication with the liquid outlet. The turbine is arranged at the bottom of the liquid storage cup. The turbine can rotate relative to the liquid storage cup along the circumference of the liquid storage cup, so that the rotation of the turbine disturbs the atomizing liquid in the liquid storage cup to rotate upward, and the atomizing liquid is caused to flow to the liquid outlet. The atomizer can solve the problems of insufficient liquid supply of the atomizing core or dry burning. Moreover, the atomizer does not limit the hand holding angle of a user. Moreover, the distance between the atomizing core and the air outlet of the atomizer is closer, and the air outlet channel is shorter, so that the problem of more condensed liquid in the air outlet channel caused by the long air outlet channel is solved. Moreover, the atomizing core is not soaked in the atomizing liquid for a long time, and the atomizing core does not store too much liquid, so that the atomizing core is not prone to leakage and liquid explosion.

Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of atomization equipment technology, and in particular to an atomizer and an electronic atomization device including the atomizer. Background Technology

[0002] Electronic atomizing devices (such as electronic cigarettes) include an atomizer, which includes a heating element, a liquid guide, and a reservoir. The atomized liquid in the reservoir is transferred to the heating element via the liquid guide, and the heating element is powered on to heat and atomize the atomized liquid.

[0003] Currently, electronic atomizing devices typically place the atomizing core at the bottom of the reservoir. The atomized liquid in the reservoir is transferred to the guide liquid in the atomizing core by gravity, and then transferred to the heating element in the atomizing core via the guide liquid.

[0004] However, this type of atomizing device has the following drawbacks:

[0005] (1) The atomized liquid needs to pass through a long air outlet channel before it can be discharged. The longer the air outlet channel, the more condensate will be inside.

[0006] (2) The atomizing core will be immersed in the atomizing liquid for a long time, which is prone to leakage;

[0007] (3) If the atomizing core is not used for a long time, it will accumulate too much liquid and absorb moisture from the air, which will cause the liquid to explode when it is used again.

[0008] (4) There are requirements for the user's hand holding angle. Since the atomizing core is at the bottom of the liquid storage cup, the liquid inlet of the atomizing core (which is connected to the liquid outlet of the liquid storage cup) is also located at the bottom of the liquid storage cup. Once the user reverses the electronic atomizing device so that the bottom of the electronic atomizing device is facing up and the mouthpiece is facing down, the liquid inlet of the atomizing core will be exposed outside the atomizing liquid, resulting in insufficient liquid supply to the heating element or becoming a liquid-free state, which is prone to dry burning and damage to the atomizing core.

[0009] Therefore, it is necessary to improve the atomizing device to overcome some or all of the above-mentioned drawbacks. Summary of the Invention

[0010] This application provides an atomizer and an electronic atomizing device that can rotate a turbine in the reservoir when the atomizing liquid in the reservoir is low, thereby disturbing the atomizing liquid to rotate and rise and continuously and fully supply liquid to the atomizing core, thus preventing dry burning.

[0011] On one hand, this application provides an atomizer, which includes an atomizing core, a liquid reservoir, and a turbine. The liquid reservoir has an outlet at its top. The atomizing core is located near the top of the atomizer relative to the liquid reservoir and is connected to the outlet. The turbine is disposed at the bottom of the liquid reservoir and is rotatable relative to the liquid reservoir circumferentially. This rotation disturbs the atomized liquid within the liquid reservoir, causing it to rise and flow towards the outlet. In one embodiment of the atomizer, the turbine has a central sleeve and at least one turbine blade disposed on the outer periphery of the central sleeve. The turbine rotates about the central axis of the central sleeve, and the outer periphery of the turbine gradually decreases from bottom to top.

[0012] In one embodiment of the atomizer, there are multiple turbine blades, each of which is arranged sequentially at intervals around the central axis of the central sleeve, and the width of the turbine blades gradually decreases from bottom to top along the radial direction of the central sleeve.

[0013] In one embodiment of the atomizer, the turbine blades are spiral structures that extend spirally along the axial direction of the central sleeve toward the top of the liquid reservoir.

[0014] In one embodiment of the atomizer, the atomizer further includes a flow guiding element. The liquid reservoir has an inner shell and an outer shell, with a liquid storage chamber between the inner shell and the outer shell. The flow guiding element is connected to the inner shell, arranged inside the liquid reservoir, and located between the liquid outlet and the turbine. The flow guiding element in the liquid reservoir is used to push the atomized liquid, which is agitated and rotated upward by the turbine, upward to the liquid outlet.

[0015] In one embodiment of the atomizer, the flow guiding element is a flow guide plate, and the outer edge of the flow guide plate is bent towards the bottom relative to the center of the flow guide plate.

[0016] One embodiment of an atomizer includes a transmission element that transmits power from a power element outside the atomizer to the turbine to drive the turbine to rotate.

[0017] In one embodiment of the atomizer, one end of the transmission element is located outside the liquid reservoir and connected to the power element, while the other end of the transmission element extends into the liquid reservoir and is connected to the turbine.

[0018] In one embodiment of the atomizer, the transmission element is a gear shaft, the bottom of the turbine is provided with a gear ring, one end of the gear shaft is located outside the liquid storage cup and connected to the power element, and the other end extends into the liquid storage cup and meshes with the gear ring.

[0020] In one embodiment of the atomizer, the bottom of the turbine is provided with multiple receiving slots, and each receiving slot is arranged sequentially around the rotation axis of the turbine. The transmission element is a plurality of magnetic components, each of which is installed in a corresponding receiving slot. The magnetic components and the power element are transmitted through magnetic non-contact transmission via the bottom of the liquid storage cup, thereby driving the turbine to rotate relative to the liquid storage cup in the circumference of the liquid storage cup.

[0021] In one embodiment of the atomizer, the liquid storage cup further comprises a top cover disposed at the top of the inner shell and the outer shell, and a bottom cover disposed at the bottom of the inner shell and the outer shell, wherein the inner shell, the outer shell, the top cover and the bottom cover together enclose the liquid storage cup;

[0022] The flow guiding element is also provided with a connecting hole at its center, through which it is sleeved on the outside of the inner shell.

[0023] In one embodiment of the atomizer, a limiting flange is provided on the outer periphery of the inner shell, the turbine has a central sleeve, the central sleeve is rotatably fitted outside the inner shell, and the turbine is limited between the limiting flange and the bottom cover.

[0024] In one embodiment of the atomizer, the atomizing core includes a heating element and a liquid guide. The liquid outlet is located on the top cover. The liquid guide includes a first part and a second part. The first part is placed inside the liquid reservoir and is at least partially disposed on the surface of the flow guiding element facing the top cover. The second part extends out of the liquid reservoir through the liquid outlet and is at least partially disposed on the top side of the liquid reservoir and in contact with the heating element, so as to guide and transfer the atomized liquid in the liquid reservoir to the heating element.

[0025] In one embodiment of the atomizer, the liquid guide is strip-shaped; the heating element is a tubular heating element and is arranged around the second portion of the liquid guide located on the top side of the liquid reservoir.

[0026] In one embodiment of the atomizer, the atomizing core includes a heating element and a liquid guide. The bottom of the heating element is installed inside the inner shell and the top is installed inside the central through hole of the top cover. The liquid guide is annular, with its inner circumference fitted over the heating element. The liquid guide is disposed between the top surface of the inner shell and the top cover.

[0027] In one embodiment of the atomizer, the liquid guide is a liquid guide cotton or a porous ceramic body.

[0028] In one embodiment of the atomizer, the atomizer further includes a conductive electrode post, the bottom cover has a bottom cover through hole, the conductive electrode post is inserted into the bottom cover through hole and the inner shell, the top end of the conductive electrode post is electrically connected to the atomizing core, and the bottom end of the conductive electrode post is electrically connected to the main unit power supply.

[0029] The various implementations of the atomizer described above can be combined arbitrarily without conflict.

[0030] On the other hand, this application also provides an electronic atomizing device, which includes an atomizer as described in any one of the above claims, and a main unit, wherein the main unit is provided with a power supply and a power element for driving the turbine of the atomizer to rotate.

[0031] In one embodiment of the electronic atomizing device, where the transmission element in the atomizer is connected to the power element, the power element is an electric motor, the transmission element is a gear shaft, the bottom of the turbine is provided with a gear ring, one end of the gear shaft is located outside the liquid storage cup and is connected to the electric motor, and the other end extends into the liquid storage cup and meshes with the gear ring.

[0032] In one embodiment of an electronic atomizing device, where the transmission element and the power element in the atomizer are driven by magnetic non-contact transmission, the power element is a permanent magnet element that has its own magnetism or an electromagnetic element that generates magnetism by applying an alternating electric field.

[0033] The various embodiments of the electronic atomizing device described above can be combined arbitrarily without conflict.

[0034] The atomizer provided in this application addresses the issue of insufficient atomizer supply or dry burning when the atomizer coil cannot adequately contact the atomizer in the reservoir due to low atomizer level, or when the turbine is required to operate. The turbine, with its raised streamlines, agitates the atomizer in the reservoir, creating eddies that raise the atomizer level and direct it towards the reservoir's outlet, ensuring the atomizer coil makes contact with the liquid. This solves the problems of insufficient coil supply or dry burning. Furthermore, even when used upside down or tilted at any angle within a 360-degree range, insufficient supply does not occur, thus eliminating restrictions on the user's posture or hand angle when using the atomizer.

[0035] Furthermore, by placing the atomizer coil closer to the top of the atomizer than the reservoir, i.e., by positioning the coil at the top, the distance between the coil and the air outlet on the top of the atomizer is much shorter, thus greatly shortening the airflow path. The vapor produced is almost directly delivered to the user's mouth, solving the problem of condensation forming on the inner wall of the airflow path due to its length. Moreover, only a portion of the coil (i.e., the liquid guiding part) is connected to the reservoir, while the majority is separate. Therefore, the coil is not immersed in the liquid for extended periods, nor does it accumulate excessive liquid. Consequently, the coil is less prone to leakage and spillage.

[0061] To enable those skilled in the art to better understand the technical solution of this utility model, the technical solution of this utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0062] This application provides an atomizer and an electronic atomizing device, which, when the atomizing liquid in the reservoir is low, causes a turbine installed in the reservoir to rotate, thereby disturbing the atomizing liquid to rotate and rise, continuously and sufficiently supplying liquid to the atomizing core, thus preventing dry burning.

[0063] As shown in the figure, the atomizer provided in this application includes a liquid reservoir 10, a turbine 20, and an atomizing core T.

[0064] The liquid reservoir 10 has a liquid storage chamber for holding atomizing liquid. The top of the liquid reservoir 10 has a liquid outlet A. In the description of this application, the location of the atomizer's air outlet is referred to as "top".

[0065] The atomizer coil T is connected to the liquid outlet A of the reservoir 10. The atomizer coil T is positioned closer to the top of the atomizer than the reservoir 10; this structural design is known as the top-mounted atomizer coil T design.

[0066] The turbine 20 is located at the bottom of the liquid storage cup 10, that is, the turbine 20 is located inside the liquid storage cup 10 and at the bottom of the liquid storage chamber.

[0067] The turbine 20 can rotate relative to the liquid reservoir 10 in the circumferential direction, that is, the shaft of the turbine 20 extends from the top side of the liquid reservoir 10 to the bottom side of the liquid reservoir 10.

[0068] When the turbine 20 rotates, it disturbs the atomized liquid in the reservoir 10, causing it to rotate and rise, thus causing the atomized liquid to flow to the outlet A of the reservoir 10.

[0069] With the above design, when the atomizer coil T cannot fully contact the atomizer due to insufficient liquid in the reservoir 10, or when the turbine 20 needs to operate, the turbine 20 can be activated. Because the turbine 20 has raised streamlines on its outer side, its rotation disturbs the atomizer in the reservoir 10, generating a vortex. This causes the liquid level to rise, propelling the liquid towards the outlet A of the reservoir 10, ensuring the atomizer coil T contacts the liquid. This solves the problems of insufficient liquid supply or dry burning of the atomizer coil T. Furthermore, even when used upside down or tilted at any angle within a 360-degree range, insufficient liquid supply will not occur. Therefore, there are no restrictions on the user's posture or hand angle when using the atomizer.

[0070] Furthermore, by positioning the atomizer core T closer to the top of the atomizer than the reservoir cup 10, i.e., by placing the atomizer core T at the top, the distance between the atomizer core T and the air outlet on the top of the atomizer is closer, thus greatly shortening the air outlet channel. The vapor produced after atomization enters the user's mouth almost directly, solving the problem of condensation forming on the inner wall of the air outlet channel due to its long channel length. Moreover, only a portion of the atomizer core T (i.e., the liquid guide described later) is connected to the reservoir cup 10, while the majority is designed to be separate from the reservoir cup 10. Therefore, the atomizer core will not be immersed in the atomizing liquid for a long time, nor will it accumulate too much liquid. Consequently, the atomizer core T is less prone to leakage and is less likely to explode.

[0071] Furthermore, the turbine 20 may have a central sleeve 201 and turbine blades 202. The turbine 20 rotates about the central axis of the central sleeve 201. The turbine blades 202 are disposed on the outer periphery of the central sleeve 201. Of course, the structure of the turbine 20 is not limited to this; any structure capable of agitating the atomized liquid to rotate and rise is acceptable.

[0072] The number of turbine blades 202 can be one or more. When there are multiple blades, each turbine blade 202 is arranged sequentially at intervals along the circumference of the central sleeve 201, that is, each turbine blade 202 is arranged sequentially at intervals around the central axis of the central sleeve 201.

[0073] The outer circumferential dimensions of the turbine 20 gradually decrease from bottom to top. There are various ways to achieve this. For example, one way is that the outer circumferential surface of the central sleeve 201 is a cylindrical surface of equal diameter, and the width of the turbine blade 202 in the radial direction of the central sleeve gradually decreases from bottom to top. In other words, the width of the turbine blade 202 gradually decreases from bottom to top along the radial direction of the central sleeve 201.

[0074] The outer circumference of the turbine 20 gradually decreases from bottom to top. When the turbine 20 rotates, the atomized liquid located at the bottom of the liquid reservoir 10 can rotate and rise in large quantities along the turbine blades 202 that gradually decrease from bottom to top due to the disturbance.

[0075] The shape of the turbine blade 202 can be flexibly set according to actual needs. For example, the turbine blade 202 can be set as a flat plate structure with a preset angle to the axial direction of the central sleeve 201. Alternatively, the turbine blade 202 can be set as a spiral structure extending spirally along the axial direction of the central sleeve 201 towards the top of the liquid storage cup 10. The spiral turbine blade 202 has a significant turbulence effect. In the illustrated embodiment, the turbine blade 202 is a spiral structure with the top and bottom bending to opposite sides, so that the turbine 20 can more significantly turbulent the atomized liquid as it rotates upwards. Of course, the turbine blade 202 is not limited to the spiral and flat structures listed above.

[0076] The turbine 20 can be made of metal or environmentally friendly non-metallic materials. This application does not limit the material of the turbine 20.

[0077] Furthermore, the liquid storage cup 10 may have an inner shell 101 and an outer shell 102, with the liquid storage cavity of the liquid storage cup 10 located between the inner shell 101 and the outer shell 102. Of course, the outer shell 102 may also be spaced outside the inner shell 101. The specific connection relationship between the inner shell 101 and the outer shell 102 is not limited here.

[0078] Furthermore, the liquid storage cup 10 may also have a top cover 103 disposed at the top of the inner shell 101 and the outer shell 102, and a bottom cover 104 disposed at the bottom of the inner shell 101 and the outer shell 102. The liquid storage cavity of the liquid storage cup 10 is an annular cavity formed by the inner shell 101, the outer shell 102, the top cover 103, and the bottom cover 104. When the liquid storage cup 10 has an inner shell 101, the central sleeve 201 can be fitted over the inner shell 101. Therefore, this structure of the liquid storage cup 10 facilitates the assembly of the turbine 20. Of course, the structure of the liquid storage cup 10 is not limited to this and can be flexibly designed according to actual needs.

[0079] When the central sleeve 201 is fitted outside the inner shell 101, a limiting flange 101a can be provided on the outer periphery of the inner shell 101. The limiting flange 101a abuts against the top of the central sleeve 201, and the bottom cover 104 abuts against the bottom of the turbine 20, thereby achieving axial limiting of the turbine 20.

[0080] Furthermore, the atomizer may include a flow guiding element 40, which assists in pushing the atomized liquid, which is agitated and rotated upward by the turbine 20, towards the outlet A. The flow guiding element 40 is a optional component; that is, it may or may not be included. Figure 1 In the first embodiment shown, no flow guiding element 40 is provided.

[0081] The flow guiding element 40 is connected to the inner shell 101 and is arranged inside the liquid storage cup 10 and located between the liquid outlet A of the liquid storage cup 10 and the turbine 20.

[0082] When the turbine 20 rotates and disturbs the atomized liquid, the liquid is thrown upwards to reach the guide element 40, and then flows along the surface of the guide element 40 to the outlet A due to inertia. The guide element 40 guides the atomized liquid, allowing more, faster and smoother flow of the rotating and rising liquid to the outlet A.

[0083] The flow guiding element 40 can be a flow guide plate, but it is not limited to a flow guide plate; any component that can achieve the above-mentioned flow guiding effect can be used. When a flow guide plate is used, the outer edge of the flow guide plate can be bent towards the bottom relative to the center of the flow guide plate. In this way, more atomized liquid can be guided into the flow guiding liquid 60 along the bottom-bent flow guide plate, resulting in a better flow guiding effect.

[0084] When the liquid storage cup 10 has an inner shell 101, a connection hole can be opened in the center of the flow guiding element 40, and the flow guiding element 40 is sleeved on the outside of the inner shell 101 through the connection hole (it can be assembled on the outside of the inner shell 101, or it can be integrally set with the inner shell 101).

[0085] Furthermore, the atomizer may include a transmission element 30, while a power element is set outside the atomizer, that is, a power element is set in the main unit of the electronic atomizing device. The power of the power element is transmitted to the turbine 20 through the transmission element 30. The transmission element 30 transmits the power from the power element outside the atomizer to the turbine 20 to drive the turbine 20 to rotate.

[0086] The power element can be an electric motor. In this case, one end of the transmission element 30 is located outside the liquid reservoir 10 and is connected to the power element, i.e., the electric motor. The other end of the transmission element 30 extends into the liquid reservoir 10 and is connected to the turbine 20.

[0087] The power element can also be a permanent magnet element or an electromagnetic element. The permanent magnet element has its own magnetism, and the electromagnetic element generates magnetism through an external alternating electric field. In this case, the transmission element 30 is located inside the liquid reservoir 10 and is connected to the turbine 20. It is connected to the power element outside the liquid reservoir 10 through magnetic non-contact transmission.

[0088] When the power component is an electric motor, such as Figures 2-5 The transmission element 30 can be a gear shaft 30a. One end of the gear shaft 30a is located outside the liquid storage cavity of the liquid storage cup 10 and is connected to the electric motor, for example, it is connected to the output shaft of the electric motor, while the other end of the gear shaft 30a extends into the liquid storage cup 10. Specifically, a through hole 104b can be opened on the bottom cover 104 of the liquid storage cup 10, and the other end of the gear shaft 30a extends into the liquid storage cup 10 through the through hole 104b. Specifically, the gear shaft 30a can be arranged parallel to the rotating shaft of the turbine 20.

[0089] When the transmission element 30 adopts a gear shaft 30a, a gear ring 203 is provided at the bottom of the turbine 20. The inner circumference of the gear ring 203 is provided with meshing teeth. The gear ring 203 meshes with one end of the gear shaft 30a through the meshing teeth, thereby realizing the connection between the turbine 20 and the gear shaft 30a.

[0090] Since the atomizing liquid in the reservoir cup 10 is prone to leaking out, and if the gear shaft 30a and gear ring 203 come into contact with the atomizing liquid in the reservoir cup 10, it is easy for the gear shaft 30a and gear ring 203 to rust. To avoid this drawback, a base plate 205 can be set at the bottom of the central sleeve 201 of the turbine 20. The base plate 205 is used to divide the reservoir of the reservoir cup 10 into a top chamber and a bottom chamber that are not connected to each other. The atomizing liquid is stored in the top chamber, the gear ring 203 is located in the bottom chamber, and one end of the gear shaft 30a extends into the bottom chamber, thereby isolating the gear ring 203 and gear shaft 30a from the atomizing liquid in the top chamber of the reservoir cup 10.

[0091] When the power element uses a permanent magnet or electromagnetic element, such as Figures 6-10 The transmission element 30 can employ multiple magnetic components 30b. The turbine 20 has multiple accommodating slots 204 spaced out circumferentially, and the magnetic components 30b are installed in each slot 204 in a corresponding manner. The magnetic components 30b are transmitted non-contactly to the permanent magnet element or electromagnetic element through the bottom cover 104 of the liquid reservoir 10. The permanent magnet element generates a magnetic force on the magnetic component 30b using its own magnetism, thereby driving the turbine 20 to rotate. Alternatively, the electromagnetic element generates magnetism through an applied alternating electric field, thereby generating a magnetic force on the magnetic component 30b, and driving the turbine 20 to rotate using this magnetic force.

[0092] Furthermore, the atomizing core T may include a heating element 50 and a liquid guide 60. The liquid guide 60 is connected to the liquid outlet A of the reservoir 10, and the liquid guide 60 is also in contact with the heating element 50. The liquid guide 60 is used to transfer the atomized liquid in the reservoir 10 to the heating element 50.

[0093] The positions of the heating element 50 and the liquid guide 60 can be flexibly set according to actual needs, as long as the atomizing core T is relatively close to the top side of the atomizer relative to the liquid reservoir 10. In addition, the structural forms of the heating element 50 and the liquid guide 60 can also be flexibly set according to actual needs.

[0094] For example: Figures 2-5 In the second embodiment shown, and Figures 6-8 In the third embodiment shown, the heating element 50 is disposed on the top side of the top cover 103 of the liquid storage cup 10, and the top cover 103 is provided with a liquid outlet A. The liquid guide 60 includes a first part and a second part. The first part passes through the liquid outlet A and is placed inside the liquid storage cup 10, and the first part is at least partially disposed on the surface of the flow guiding element 40 facing the top cover 103. The second part passes through the liquid outlet A and extends out of the liquid storage cup 10, and the second part is at least partially disposed on the top side of the liquid storage cup 10 and contacts the heating element 50, so as to guide and transfer the atomized liquid in the liquid storage cup 10 to the heating element 50. The heating element 50 is a tubular heating element, which can be formed by manually spirally winding a heating wire. The heating element 60 is generally U-shaped with the opening facing down. The second part of the liquid guide 60 is inserted into the tubular heating element, or in other words, the tubular heating element is spirally wound on the second part of the liquid guide 60, and the two ends of the liquid guide 60 respectively pass through the two liquid outlets A of the top cover 103 and extend into the liquid storage cup 10.

[0095] For example: Figure 9 and Figure 10 In the fourth embodiment shown, the difference between this embodiment and the first embodiment is the inclusion of a flow guiding element 40. In the fourth embodiment, the top of the heating element 50 is installed in the central through hole 103a of the top cover 103, and the bottom of the heating element 50 is installed in the inner shell 101. Furthermore, an atomizing core holder S can be provided, and the heating element 50 can be nested and connected to the atomizing core holder S. The atomizing core holder S is used to support and fix the heating element 50. The atomizing core T, which includes the heating element 50, the atomizing core holder S, and the liquid guide 60, can be machined. The liquid guide 60 is annular, with its inner periphery fitted around the outer periphery of the heating element 50, and its outer periphery disposed within the liquid storage cup 10.

[0096] The liquid guide 60 can be made of a material with good liquid absorption and breathability, such as liquid guide cotton or porous ceramic material, so that when the liquid storage chamber of the liquid storage cup 10 forms a negative pressure due to the reduction of atomized liquid, air can return through the liquid guide 60.

[0097] When the liquid guide 60 is made of a relatively soft material (such as liquid guide cotton), a support component can be set to support the liquid guide 60 so that the liquid guide 60 maintains a basically fixed position and shape.

[0098] like Figures 2-5 The second embodiment shown and as in the example Figures 6-8 In the third embodiment shown, when the liquid guide 60 is made of a relatively soft material (such as liquid guide cotton) and is provided with a flow guide element 40, the liquid guide 60 can be at least partially supported on the surface of the flow guide element 40 facing the top cover 103. In this way, the flow guide element 40 not only plays the role of guiding the flow, but also serves as a support component to support the liquid guide 60 so that the shape and position of the liquid guide 60 are basically fixed. It has multiple uses and is more conducive to simplifying the structure of the atomizer.

[0099] When the fluid guide 60 is made of a relatively soft material (such as fluid guide cotton) and no flow guide element 40 is provided, other support components can be provided to support the fluid guide 60.

[0100] When the fluid guide 60 is made of a relatively hard material (such as porous ceramic), the fluid guide 60 can maintain its shape and position basically fixed without the need for support components.

[0101] Furthermore, the atomizer may include a conductive electrode post 70 and a terminal post 80. The top cover 103 and the bottom cover 104 are respectively provided with a central through hole 103a and a bottom cover through hole 104a in the area corresponding to the inner shell 101. An electrode seat 90 is assembled in the central through hole 103a. The conductive electrode post 70 is inserted from bottom to top into the bottom cover through hole 104a, the inner shell 101 and the mounting hole of the electrode seat 90. The bottom end of the conductive electrode post 70 is connected to the positive terminal of the power supply of the electronic atomizing device, and the top end of the conductive electrode post 70 is connected to the positive terminal of the heating element 50. The negative terminal of the heating element 50 is connected to the terminal post 80 assembled in the top cover 103. The current flows back to the negative terminal of the power supply through the terminal post 80, the top cover 103, the inner shell 101 and the bottom cover 104 in sequence.

[0102] Specifically, insulating sleeves 100 are fitted around the top and bottom outer peripheries of the conductive electrode post 70. The insulating sleeves 100 can prevent the conductive electrode post 70 from making contact with the top cover 103 and the bottom cover 104, which could lead to a short circuit. The insulating sleeve 100 on the bottom outer periphery of the conductive electrode post 70 also serves to position the conductive electrode post 70.

[0103] Furthermore, the atomizer may also include a housing 110 and a mouthpiece 120. The bottom of the housing 110 is sealed to the top of the liquid reservoir 10 by a sealing ring 130. The top of the housing 110 is provided with a mounting hole, into which the mouthpiece 120 is installed. The atomized liquid is discharged through the top outlet of the mouthpiece 120 (i.e., the air outlet of the atomizer) after being atomized by the atomizing core T.

[0104] Furthermore, this application also provides an electronic atomizing device, which includes a main unit, an atomizer, and other components. The main unit is equipped with a power supply, electronic control components, a power switch, and a power component for driving the turbine 20 of the atomizer to rotate. In addition, the main unit may also be equipped with indicator lights to indicate the power level, the amount of atomized liquid in the reservoir 10, etc.

[0105] As mentioned earlier, when the transmission element 30 in the atomizer is connected to the power element, refer to... Figures 2 to 5 In the embodiment, the power element is an electric motor, the transmission element 30 is a gear shaft 30a, the bottom of the turbine is provided with a gear ring 203, one end of the gear shaft 30a is located outside the liquid storage cup 10 and is connected to the electric motor, and the other end extends into the liquid storage cup and meshes with the gear ring.

[0106] In the case where the transmission element 30 and the power element in the atomizer are driven by magnetic force without contact, refer to Figures 6 to 10 The power element is either a permanent magnet element with its own magnetism or an electromagnetic element that generates magnetism by applying an alternating electric field. The transmission element 30 can employ multiple magnetic components 30b. Multiple receiving slots 204 are arranged circumferentially at intervals, and the multiple magnetic components 30b are installed in each receiving slot 204 in a corresponding manner. The magnetic components 30b and the permanent magnet element or electromagnetic element are transmitted non-contactly through the bottom cover 104 of the liquid storage cup 10. The permanent magnet element generates a magnetic force on the magnetic component 30b using its own magnetism, thereby driving the turbine 20 to rotate. Alternatively, the electromagnetic element generates magnetism through an applied alternating electric field, thereby generating a magnetic force on the magnetic component 30b, and driving the turbine 20 to rotate using this magnetic force.
