[0033] The embodiments of the present application provide a power supply device and an electronic atomization device, which are used to discharge the battery through a switch discharge mechanism before replacing, recycling or discarding the power supply device, which not only protects the green environment but also prevents safety hazards such as fire and explosion.

[0034] like Figure 1 As shown, the power supply device 100 in the embodiment of the present application is applied to an electronic atomization device, and the power supply device 100 includes a battery 101 and a switch discharge mechanism 102. The battery 101 is electrically connected to the switch discharge mechanism 102. The battery 101 is used to supply power to the electronic atomization device so that the electronic atomization device works normally. The switch discharge mechanism 102 is used to discharge the remaining power in the battery 101 after being connected to the battery 101.

[0035] In an actual application scenario, the power supply device 100 is disposed in an electronic atomization device, and the power supply device 100 and the atomizer ( Figure 5 ) is electrically connected, wherein the battery 101 is electrically connected to the atomizer, and the battery 101 can supply power to the atomizer to enable the atomizer to work normally, while the battery 101 in the power supply device 100 and the switch discharge mechanism 102 are electrically connected through another electrical circuit inside the power supply device 100, so the battery 101, the switch discharge mechanism 102 and the atomizer do not form a series circuit, but the circuit formed between the battery 101 and the switch discharge mechanism 102 and the circuit formed between the battery 101 and the atomizer are two different and independent circuits. In this way, during normal use, the battery 101 can supply power to the atomizer through the circuit formed between the battery 101 and the atomizer, and when the battery 101 needs to be discharged, the battery 101 can discharge the switch discharge mechanism 102 through the circuit between the battery 101 and the switch discharge mechanism 102.

[0036] From the above, it can be seen that after the power supply device 100 is discharged and replaced, recycled or discarded, it will not pollute the environment and is very green and environmentally friendly. Moreover, since there is no power or only very low power, it will not cause personal injury or fire incidents such as battery explosion, eliminating safety hazards, protecting the lives of people around, and avoiding property losses.

[0037] Furthermore, in the embodiment of the present application, the switch discharge mechanism 102 may include a trigger component, a discharge switch, and a discharge load. The discharge switch is in an off state in an initial state, and the trigger component is in a to-be-triggered state in an initial state.

[0038] Specifically, in one embodiment of the present application, first refer to Figure 2In the power supply device 1000 shown, the battery 101, the trigger component 1021, the discharge switch 1022 and the discharge load 1023 can be electrically connected in sequence to form an electrical circuit. When the trigger component 1021 changes from a waiting state to a trigger state, the trigger component 1021 triggers the discharge switch 1022 to connect the electrical circuit, so that the battery 101 is discharged through the discharge load 1023.

[0039] It should be noted that the waiting-to-trigger state refers to the trigger component 1021 not being connected to an electrical circuit, and the triggered state refers to the trigger component 1021 being connected to an electrical circuit.

[0040] Furthermore, the trigger component 1021 may include a push-to-expand element or a magnetic push-to-expand element, which is not specifically limited here. In the case where the trigger component 1021 includes a push-to-expand element, under the action of an external force, the power supply device 1000 can disconnect or connect the electrical circuit by extending or shortening the push-to-expand element. Furthermore, the push-to-expand element can be a push-to-elastic push-to-expand element or a push-to-connect push-to-expand element, which is not specifically limited here. In the case where the trigger component 1021 includes a magnetic push-to-expand element, under the action of a magnetic force, the power supply device 1000 can disconnect or connect the electrical circuit by extending or shortening the magnetic push-to-expand element.

[0041] Furthermore, the discharge switch 1022 may be a mechanical switch or a pressure-sensitive switch, which is not specifically limited here. The mechanical switch may be a manual mechanical switch, for example, a manual mechanical switch may be closed by pressing to connect the circuit; the pressure-sensitive switch may connect the circuit when the pressure sensed by the pressure sensor exceeds a preset pressure threshold.

[0042] Furthermore, the pressure sensitive switch can be a mechanical pressure switch or an electronic pressure switch, which is not specifically limited here. It should be noted that the mechanical pressure switch in the pressure sensitive switch is different from the aforementioned mechanical switch. The mechanical pressure switch in the pressure sensitive switch automatically connects the circuit when it senses external physical pressure, while the aforementioned mechanical switch closes the switch and connects the circuit under the actual external force. In addition, the electronic pressure switch in the pressure sensitive switch senses pressure through the control of other electronic components, thereby closing the switch and connecting the circuit. For example, a pressure sensing instruction is sent to the electronic pressure switch by the controller in the atomizer, and the electronic pressure switch closes the switch according to the pressure sensing instruction. Specifically, the electronic pressure switch can be a bipolar junction transistor or a field effect transistor, which is not specifically limited here.

[0043] Furthermore, the discharge load 1023 may be a resistor, a discharge circuit structure, a triode or a field effect transistor, which is not specifically limited here. In short, any component or circuit structure that can achieve full and complete discharge of the battery 101 may be sufficient.

[0044] It should be noted that in the embodiment of the present application, the power supply device 100 can be an electronic cigarette, a medical electronic atomization product, or a cosmetic electronic atomization product, which is not specifically limited here. In the embodiment of the present application, the battery 101, the trigger component 1021, the discharge switch 1022 and the discharge load 1023 are electrically connected in sequence to form an electrical circuit. When the power supply device 1000 has reached the end of its service life, or the user wants to recycle, discard or replace the power supply device 1000, an external force is applied to the trigger component 1021, so that the trigger component 1021 changes from the initial to-be-triggered state to the triggered state, so that the discharge switch 1022 is connected to the electrical circuit, so that the battery 101 can be discharged through the discharge load 1023. The controller 101 sends a discharge instruction to the discharge component 103, thereby controlling the discharge component 103 to discharge the battery 102. After the power supply device 1000 is discharged and replaced, recycled or discarded, it is very green and environmentally friendly, will not pollute the environment, and will not cause personal injury or fire incidents such as battery explosion. It eliminates safety hazards, protects the lives of people around, and avoids property losses.

[0045] Next, in another embodiment of the present application, please refer to Figure 3 The power supply device 3000 shown in FIG. Figure 3As shown, the battery 101, the discharge switch 3022 and the discharge load 3023 are electrically connected in sequence to form another electrical circuit, and the trigger component 3021 is independent of the electrical circuit and is physically connected to the discharge switch 3022. When the trigger component 3021 changes from the waiting state to the trigger state, the trigger component 3021 triggers the discharge switch 3022 to connect the electrical circuit, so that the battery 101 is discharged through the discharge load 3023. Specifically, for example, the trigger component 3021 is a press elastic expansion element. When the user presses the trigger component 3021, the trigger component 3021 changes from the waiting state to the trigger state, and then applies pressure to the discharge switch 3022 to close the discharge switch 3022 and connect the electrical circuit, so that the battery 101 is discharged through the discharge load 3023. When the user releases the trigger component 3021, the trigger component 3021 can be restored from the triggered state to the waiting state, so that the discharge switch 3022 is disconnected due to no further external force, the electrical circuit is disconnected, and the battery 101 stops discharging; or, even if the user releases the trigger component 3021, the trigger component 3021 remains in the state of continuous triggering, so that the discharge switch 3022 is always kept in the closed state due to the continuous triggering of the trigger component 3021, and the battery 101 can only continue to discharge until the power is very low or zero, and will not be recharged because the power supply device 3000 is powered on again. In this way, after the power supply device 3000 is discharged and replaced, recycled or discarded, it will not be recharged and used by others, thereby preventing environmental pollution during secondary disposal, which is very environmentally friendly, eliminates safety hazards, and protects people's life and property safety.

[0046] It should be noted that Figure 3 In the embodiment of the power supply device 3000 shown, the physical connection between the trigger component 3021 and the discharge switch 3022 can be a physical structure connection between the two, or a circuit structure connection between the two, which is not limited here. For example, when the two are connected by a circuit structure, the discharge switch 3022 can be a transistor. In the case of normal use of the electronic cigarette, the power supply device 3000 normally supplies power to the atomizer, and the transistor as the discharge switch 3022 remains in the disconnected state. When the power of the battery 301 is already very low, the power supply device 3000 can no longer supply power to the atomizer normally, so under the action of external force, the transistor is turned on, that is, the discharge switch 3022 is closed, and the current passes, and the battery 301 is turned on through another transistor as a discharge load, consuming power to discharge the remaining power.

[0047] Different from the above-mentioned embodiments, in some other embodiments of the present application, please combine Figure 1 , refer to Figure 4In the power supply device 4000 shown, the battery 101 includes a positive electrode and a negative electrode, and the switch discharge mechanism 102 may include a trigger component and a short-circuit switch, one end of the short-circuit switch is electrically connected to the positive electrode of the battery 101, and the other end is electrically connected to the negative electrode of the battery 101, and the short-circuit switch remains in a disconnected state in the initial state, and the trigger component is in a to-be-triggered state in the initial state.

[0048] Specifically, in one embodiment, in combination Figure 1 , refer to Figure 4 In the power supply device 4000 shown, the battery 101 includes a positive electrode 1011 and a negative electrode 1021. Figure 1 The switch discharge mechanism 102 shown may include a trigger component 4021 and a short-circuit switch 4022, one end of the short-circuit switch 4022 is electrically connected to the positive electrode 1011 of the battery 101, and the other end is electrically connected to the negative electrode 1021 of the battery 101. The short-circuit switch 4022 remains in an open state in the initial state, and the trigger component 4021 is in a state to be triggered in the initial state.

[0049] In this embodiment, the battery 101 and the short-circuit switch 4022 form a series electrical circuit, the trigger component 4021 is independent of the electrical circuit, the trigger component 4021 and the short-circuit switch 4022 are physically connected to each other, and when the trigger component 4021 changes from the waiting state to the trigger state, the trigger component 4021 triggers the short-circuit switch 4022 to connect the electrical circuit, so that the battery 101 is short-circuited and discharged.

[0050] As mentioned above, the waiting state means that the trigger component is not connected to the electrical circuit, and the trigger state means that the trigger component is connected to the electrical circuit. In this embodiment, the waiting state means that the trigger component 4021 does not trigger the short-circuit switch 4022. In this state, the electrical circuit formed by the battery 101 and the short-circuit switch 4022 is not connected, that is, the short-circuit switch 4022 remains disconnected; on the contrary, the trigger state means that the trigger component 4021 triggers the short-circuit switch 4022. In this state, the electrical circuit formed by the battery 101 and the short-circuit switch 4022 is connected due to the triggering of the trigger component 4021, that is, the short-circuit switch 4022 is closed and the electrical circuit is connected.

[0051] When the electrical circuit is on, the positive and negative electrodes of the battery 101 are interconnected to form a short circuit for discharge. It should be noted that the prerequisite for connecting the positive and negative electrodes of the battery 101 to form a short circuit is that the discharge structure of this embodiment can only be used to discharge the battery when the remaining power of the battery 101 is small or very small. Otherwise, if the discharge structure of this embodiment is used to discharge the battery when the remaining power of the battery 101 is large or large, it is easy to cause the battery 101 or even the power supply device 100 in which the battery 101 is placed, and the electronic atomization device provided with the power supply device 100 to explode or catch fire, injuring the human body and damaging property. Therefore, this embodiment needs to be used with caution, and the above-mentioned danger is prone to occur if you are not careful.

[0052] The structure of the power supply device 4000 of this embodiment is different from the above Figure 2 and Figure 3 The structure of the power supply device in the illustrated embodiment is simpler, which not only saves product production costs, but also enables the product to be manufactured in a more miniaturized manner, making it more convenient for users to carry around, thereby improving practicality.

[0053] Regarding the classification of the trigger component 4021, please refer to the aforementioned records, which will not be repeated here.

[0054] Furthermore, the short-circuit switch 4022 may be a mechanical switch or a pressure-sensitive switch, which is not specifically limited here.

[0055] The embodiment of the present application also provides an electronic atomization device 5000, which includes a power supply device 5010 and an atomizer 5020. The power supply device 5010 can be any one of the power supply devices in all the aforementioned embodiments, and the battery 101 in the power supply device 5010 is electrically connected to the atomizer 5020. In addition, the battery 101 can also be electrically connected to a controller (not shown) in the atomizer 5020, which will not be repeated here.

[0056] Furthermore, the electronic atomization device 5000 may be an electronic cigarette, a medical electronic atomization product, or a cosmetic electronic atomization product, which is not specifically limited here.

[0057] As described above, the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present application, rather than to limit them. Although the present application has been described in detail with reference to the aforementioned embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that they can still modify the technical solutions described in the aforementioned embodiments, or make equivalent replacements for some of the technical features therein.
