[0029] In order to make the purpose, technical solution and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention clearer, the technical solution in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0030] Combine the following Figure 1 , describing an embodiment of the present invention.
[0031] According to an embodiment of the present invention, on the one hand, an atomizer core is provided, comprising:
[0032] A cigarette heating element 1, the cigarette heating element 1 is suitable for heating cigarettes;
[0033] The smoke oil atomizing assembly 2 is arranged at one end of the cigarette heating element 1, and comprises a smoke oil container and a smoke oil heating element. The smoke oil container contains smoke oil, and the smoke oil heating element is suitable for heating the smoke oil and atomizing it.
[0034] The controller is electrically connected to the cigarette heating element 1 and the smoke oil heating element, respectively. The controller has a first working state in which when a cigarette is arranged on the cigarette heating assembly, the controller drives the cigarette heating element 1 to heat the cigarette and the smoke oil heating element to atomize the smoke oil at the same time, and a second working state in which when no cigarette is arranged on the cigarette heating element 1, the controller drives the smoke oil heating element to atomize the smoke oil.
[0035] It should be noted that the smoke oil container in this embodiment adopts the method of setting the smoke cartridge inside. The user can directly insert the smoke cartridge into the smoke oil container without complicated installation operations. When the smoke oil in the smoke cartridge is exhausted, the user can easily replace it with a new one. At the same time, the smoke oil container can also protect the smoke cartridge to a certain extent, prevent the smoke cartridge from being affected by external factors such as dust and moisture, and extend the service life of the smoke cartridge. In other embodiments, an open smoke oil bin design can also be adopted, and the user can purchase the smoke oil by himself and add it as needed. Here, there is no limitation on its specific setting method.
[0036] It is easy to understand that the shape of the smoke oil container can be selected according to actual needs, including a cylinder, an elliptical cylinder and various other shapes, so as to adapt to the oil storage tank models of different smoke cartridges.
[0037] It is easy to understand that in the first working state, when the cigarette is on the cigarette heating element 1, the controller drives the cigarette heating element 1 and the smoke oil heating element to work at the same time, and the user can experience the mixed feeling of cigarette and smoke oil atomization at the same time. In the second working state, when the cigarette is placed on the cigarette heating element 1, the controller only drives the smoke oil atomization component 2 to work, providing the user with a pure smoke oil atomization experience, which is suitable for occasions where it is inconvenient to use cigarettes or users who prefer electronic cigarettes, reflecting the intelligence and multi-function of the product.
[0038] The atomizer core provided by the present invention can automatically switch the working state according to whether there is a cigarette on the cigarette heating element 1, without the need for the user to perform additional operations, which greatly improves the convenience of operation and user experience. For users who are not familiar with the operation of the device, they may be troubled by not knowing how to turn off the heating function, or even mistakenly start the heating to cause energy waste and safety hazards. The intelligent switching function avoids these problems, so that users do not need to worry about operational problems and use it more safely. It can also meet the needs of heating cigarettes and atomizing smoke oil when there are cigarettes, and can atomize smoke oil alone when there are no cigarettes, adapting to more different usage scenarios and user needs.
[0039] Furthermore, a flue is provided on the smoke oil container, the flue is connected to the cigarette heating element 1 , and the flue is suitable for conveying the smoke oil atomized by the smoke oil heating element to the cigarette heating element 1 .
[0040] It is easy to understand that the smoke duct connected to the cigarette heating element 1 is provided on the smoke oil container, which can better blend the smell of the atomized smoke oil and the heated cigarette, bringing users a more unique and rich taste experience; it can improve the uniformity of the smoke, make the smoke more evenly distributed during the smoking process, and ensure a stable and consistent smoking experience; it helps to improve the product integration and make the atomization core structure more compact.
[0041] In an optional embodiment, an independent smoke channel may be provided, and the cigarette smoke and the smoke oil atomized smoke may be mixed near the mouthpiece by a mixing device, and the mixing ratio may be adjusted. An external mixing method may also be adopted, and a mixing chamber may be provided outside the atomizer core, so that the two smokes enter separately and then mix, so that the smoke oil atomized smoke may naturally diffuse and mix toward the cigarette heating element 1.
[0042] Furthermore, a plurality of through holes are provided on the smoke oil heating element, and the through holes are suitable for air circulation.
[0043] It is easy to understand that the through hole is conducive to the circulation of air. During the process of heating and atomizing the e-liquid, sufficient air can fully contact the e-liquid. The entry of air can provide the necessary oxygen for the atomization of the e-liquid, promoting the rapid and uniform atomization of the e-liquid.
[0044] In detail, the setting parameters of the through hole in this embodiment are a porosity range of 40%-60% and a pore size range of 10um-20um. The porosity within this range can ensure good air circulation, and will not cause poor air circulation due to too low porosity, affecting the atomization effect and heating efficiency of the smoke oil; nor will it reduce the structural strength and stability of the heating element due to too high porosity. The porosity of 40%-60% can make the air more evenly distributed in the heating element, providing an appropriate amount of oxygen for the atomization of the smoke oil. Of course, in other embodiments, other through hole parameters can be selected, and they are not limited here.
[0045] Furthermore, the cigarette heating element 1 and the tobacco oil heating element are both heating nets.
[0046] It is easy to understand that the setting of the heating net allows all parts of the cigarette to be heated evenly during the heating process. This ensures that the tobacco components in the cigarette can release substances such as flavor and nicotine more consistently, avoiding the uneven release of components caused by local overheating or overcooling. In the smoke oil heating element, the heating net can evenly transfer heat to the smoke oil in the smoke oil container. The smoke oil will atomize quickly when heated, and the uniform heat distribution can make the smoke oil atomized more delicately and evenly.
[0047] In an optional embodiment, a heating sheet may be used instead of a heating net, such as a ceramic heating sheet or a metal heating sheet. Heat is generated by passing electricity inside or on the surface of the material. Compared with the heating net, the heat distribution uniformity is slightly worse. For cigarette heating, if the area of the heating sheet is small or the design is unreasonable, it may cause insufficient heating or overheating of some areas of the cigarette, affecting the smoking experience. For tobacco oil heating, it may cause uneven atomization of the tobacco oil, resulting in local concentration differences.
[0048] Further, the resistance range of the cigarette heating element 1 is 0.6-0.7Ω;
[0049] Furthermore, the resistance range of the smoke oil heating element is 0.9-1.0Ω.
[0050] Furthermore, the cigarette heating element 1 is a needle-type heating element, and the needle-type heating element part is suitable for being inserted into a cigarette to heat the cigarette.
[0051] It is easy to understand that the needle-type heating element is partially inserted into the cigarette, which can directly heat the tobacco inside the cigarette. Compared with the traditional external heating method, this method can more accurately control the heating position and temperature.
[0052] In an optional embodiment, a sheet heating or a cylinder heating method may also be used. A sheet heating element is used, and the cigarette is placed on the heating sheet or between the heating sheets for heating; in the cylinder heating method, the cigarette can be inserted into the cylinder for heating. Here, there is no restriction on the specific setting method, and stable heating can be ensured.
[0053] In this embodiment, the needle-type heating element includes a cylindrical main body and a needle-shaped end, which are integrally formed, and the diameter of the main body is 2.15 mm. While being able to better adapt to different types of cigarettes, the smaller diameter prevents the needle-type heating element from causing excessive damage to the cigarette structure when inserted into the cigarette, thereby ensuring the integrity of the cigarette. In other embodiments, the diameter of the needle-type heating element can also be set according to actual needs, and it is not limited here.
[0054] Furthermore, the needle-type heating element is an alumina ceramic needle-type heating element.
[0055] It is easy to understand that the metal mesh is installed in the alumina ceramic by printing the heating circuit or embedding to form the alumina ceramic needle heating element.
[0056] It should be noted that alumina ceramics have excellent insulation properties and their resistivity is very high. During the operation of the needle-type heating element, it can effectively prevent current leakage and avoid the risk of electric shock to the user. Of course, in other embodiments, other materials can also be used as the needle-type heating element, such as a metal-ceramic composite needle-type heating element, a silicon carbide ceramic needle-type heating element, etc.
[0057] Furthermore, the smoke oil heating element is a ceramic smoke oil heating element.
[0058] It should be noted that the ceramic material has a relatively uniform heat conduction property. In the process of heating the smoke oil, the ceramic smoke oil heating element can evenly transfer heat to various parts of the smoke oil container, so that the smoke oil can be atomized at a relatively uniform temperature. Of course, in other embodiments, other materials can also be used, such as a metal heating wire smoke oil heating element, a graphite heating sheet smoke oil heating element, etc.
[0059] Furthermore, the needle-type heating element is arranged on the smoke oil heating element, and the needle-type heating element is connected to the smoke oil heating element through glass.
[0060] It should be noted that the smoke oil heater is provided with a through hole that allows the main body of the needle heater to pass through. The diameter of the through hole is slightly larger than the diameter of the main body of the needle heater, and glass is filled in the gap between the needle heater and the smoke oil heater. Glass has a certain thermal stability and can play a role of thermal buffer to a certain extent. When the needle heater heats the cigarette, a higher temperature will be generated, and the low thermal conductivity of the glass can slow down the transfer of heat to the smoke oil heater. In this way, the smoke oil heater can be prevented from being directly affected by the high temperature of the needle heater and maintain a relatively stable operating temperature.
[0061] Furthermore, in order to ensure the stability of the connection, high temperature resistant glass is used for connection. For the needle heater, the temperature may reach about 200℃-300℃ during the heating process of the cigarette. The working temperature of the smoke oil heater is usually between 100℃-200℃. In order to ensure the stability of the connected glass in this temperature environment, the lower limit of its high temperature resistance range should be at least lower than the lowest working temperature of the smoke oil heater, that is, the lower limit of the high temperature resistance of the glass should be lower than 100℃. Taking into account some extreme situations, such as the needle heater working for a long time or local overheating of the equipment, the upper limit of the high temperature resistance of the glass should be higher than the highest temperature that may occur in the needle heater, preferably 350℃-400℃.
[0062] According to an embodiment of the present invention, on the other hand, a smoking device is provided, comprising:
[0063] case;
[0064] Battery;
[0065] As the atomizer core above, the atomizer core is arranged in the shell.
[0066] It should be noted that there are various choices for shell material. Metal materials such as aluminum alloy and stainless steel have high strength and heat dissipation, plastic materials are low-cost and easy to process, and composite materials combine multiple advantages. The appearance of the shell can be simple in style or have personalized elements, and the size and grip need to be reasonably designed. In terms of functional design, a display screen can be set to display the working status, and there can also be a replaceable shell to increase the fun. There can also be a charging port, switch button and other operating components, which can protect internal components and realize multiple functions.
[0067] It should be noted that batteries can be selected from common lithium-ion batteries and lithium polymer batteries. Lithium polymer batteries have various shapes, are more suitable for smoking device design and are safer. The capacity affects the battery life, so the battery life and portability need to be considered comprehensively. In terms of safety, the battery must have heat resistance and overcharge, over-discharge, short-circuit protection and other functions to ensure safety during use and charging.
[0068] Because the smoking device includes an atomizer core and has the same effect as the atomizer core, it will not be described in detail here.
[0069] Although the embodiments of the present invention have been described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, those skilled in the art may make various modifications and variations without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention, and such modifications and variations are all within the scope defined by the appended claims.
