[0037] The present application embodiment provides an atomizer 100 for use in an atomization device, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the atomizer 100 includes a liquid storage tank 10, an atomizing core 110, a flavor tank 20, and a mouthpiece 30. The liquid storage tank 10 is used to store the atomized matrix. The liquid storage tank 10 defines at least a portion of the aerosol channel 102. The atomizing core 110 is connected to the liquid storage tank 10 for liquid conduction, and the atomizing core 110 is connected to the aerosol channel 102 by airflow. The atomizing core 110 is used to heat the atomized matrix to generate aerosol. The flavor tank 20 is used to store the flavor forming material. The mouthpiece 30 is connected to the aerosol channel 102 by airflow. The aerosol generated by the atomizing core 110 and the flavor gas generated by the flavor tank 20 can escape to the mouthpiece 30 through the aerosol channel 102. The present application utilizes the flavor gas generated by the flavor tank 20 to mix with the aerosol, so that the flavor of the aerosol generated by the atomizer 100 has a mixed effect, which is conducive to improving the user experience.

[0038] In some embodiments, the flavor chamber 20 includes a plurality of sub-flavor chambers 210, and flavor gas is formed in the sub-flavor chambers 210; the suction nozzle 30 is connected to one of the plurality of sub-flavor chambers 210 and the liquid storage chamber 10. The flavor gas in the sub-flavor chamber 210 and the aerosol in the liquid storage chamber 10 can be discharged from the suction nozzle 30, so that the user can experience aerosols with mixed flavors. The suction nozzle 30 is connected to one of the plurality of sub-flavor chambers 210, so that the flavor of the discharged aerosol can be adjusted and has a variety of flavors. The user can experience a variety of different flavors in one atomizer 100, avoiding frequent replacement of the atomizer 100, which is conducive to reducing the user's use cost and improving the convenience and user experience of the atomizer 100.

[0039] In some embodiments, the atomizer core 110 is disposed in the liquid storage tank 10, and the aerosol channel 102 includes an atomizer channel 101 formed by the atomizer core 110. In other embodiments, the atomizer core 110 may also be disposed outside the liquid storage tank 10, for example, the atomizer core 110 may be attached to the bottom of the liquid storage tank 10.

[0040] In some embodiments, flavor elements 220 are respectively disposed in the sub-flavor chambers 210, and the flavor elements 220 are configured to volatilize and generate flavor gas. By disposing the flavor elements 220 that can volatilize naturally in the sub-flavor chambers 210, the flavor gas is volatilized from the inside or surface of the flavor elements 220, and there is no need to set up a complex atomization system such as heating or ultrasound, which can reduce the manufacturing cost of the atomizer 100, improve space utilization, and facilitate miniaturization of the atomizer 100.

[0041] In some embodiments, the flavor element 220 is used to store at least one flavor forming material. The flavor forming material includes at least one of an alcoholic liquid, a flavor, and an organic solvent. The alcoholic liquid includes ethanol, isopropanol, etc.; the flavor includes vanilla extract, lemon oil, etc.; the organic solvent includes acetone, ethyl acetate, etc.

[0042] In some embodiments, the flavor element 220 may be solid, and the flavor element 220 includes a first matrix and an additive. The flavor element 220 may be formed into a flavor gel by adding the additive to the first matrix. The flavor gel has a small volume and is easy to change in shape, which can significantly reduce the design size of the flavor chamber 20 and contribute to the miniaturization of the atomizer 100. Specifically, the material of the first matrix includes gelatin, agar, polyvinyl alcohol or sodium polyacrylate, and the material of the additive includes spices, flavors or essential oils.

[0043] In some embodiments, the flavor element 220 further includes a thickener, which is also called a gelling agent. The thickener can increase the viscosity of the system, so that the system maintains a uniform and stable suspension state or an emulsion state, or forms a gel. Thickeners are mainly divided into two categories: natural and synthetic. Natural thickeners include cassava starch, carrageenan, pectin, guar gum, natural gum, agar powder, xanthan gum, etc. These thickeners are usually extracted from plants and seaweeds and have good biodegradability and safety; synthetic thickeners include carboxymethyl cellulose, hydroxyethyl methyl cellulose, hydroxypropyl carboxymethyl cellulose, sodium carboxymethyl methyl cellulose, polyurethane material thickeners, sodium polyacrylate, acrylic emulsion, polymerized ferric sulfate, etc. These thickeners are prepared by chemical synthesis and have high stability and temperature resistance.

[0044] Specifically, the thickener used in the flavor element 220 is a food thickener, and the material of the thickener includes sodium alginate, xanthan gum or carrageenan.

[0045] In some embodiments, the flavor element 220 includes a porous liquid storage element and a flavoring agent. The porous liquid storage element includes liquid storage cotton. The flavor element 220 can be formed by adding a flavoring agent to the liquid storage cotton. The flavoring agent includes a volatile alcohol-containing liquid, such as ethanol, isopropanol, etc.; a volatile flavor, such as vanilla extract, lemon oil, etc.; an organic solvent, such as acetone, ethyl acetate, etc. Among them, the alcohol-containing liquid has a lower boiling point, making it easy to evaporate. For example, ethanol (alcohol) is a common volatile alcohol substance, which can evaporate quickly at room temperature and has a certain alcohol flavor. Organic solvents have a lower molecular weight and boiling point. These characteristics make the interaction between molecules weaker and easier to escape from the surface of the liquid, so they are more volatile.

[0046] Specifically, flavoring agents also include surfactants, such as lecithin, sorbitan monoesters, polyoxyethylene (POE) alcohol esters, surfactants derived from plant oils (coconut oil), etc. Surfactants can change the surface tension of the liquid, making it easier for molecules on the surface of the liquid to escape from the interior of the liquid and promote volatilization.

[0047] In some embodiments, the flavor element 220 includes edible volatile flavor substances, which refer to compounds with low boiling points and high vapor pressures, which are easily volatile at normal temperature and pressure, and which significantly contribute to the flavor of food. Edible volatile flavor substances include aldehydes, ketones, esters, alcohols, acids, nitrogen-containing heterocyclic compounds, and oxygen-containing heterocyclic compounds.

[0048] In some embodiments, the number of sub-flavor bins 210 is multiple, for example, the number of sub-flavor bins 210 may be 2, 4, 5, 7, etc. The suction nozzle 30 may rotate relative to the flavor bin 20 to communicate with one of the multiple sub-flavor bins 210. Specifically, the flavor bin 20 may be relatively fixed to the liquid storage bin 10, and the suction nozzle 30 may be switched to a position communicating with a different sub-flavor bin 210 by rotating the suction nozzle 30; or the suction nozzle 30 may be relatively fixed to the liquid storage bin 10, and different sub-flavor bins 210 may be switched to communicate with the suction nozzle 30 by rotating the flavor bin 20.

[0049] In some embodiments, the flavor elements 220 in different sub-flavor chambers 210 have different components, so that different sub-flavor chambers 210 can produce different flavor gases, so that when the mouthpiece 30 is connected to different sub-flavor chambers 210, the user can experience aerosols with different flavors, thereby improving the user experience. In some other embodiments, the flavor elements 220 in different sub-flavor chambers 210 may also have the same components but different concentrations, so that the flavor elements 220 in different sub-flavor chambers 210 have different volatilization rates, so that the user can experience aerosols with different flavor intensities.

[0050] In some embodiments, the atomizing core 110 is provided with an atomizing tube 111, and an atomizing channel 101 is formed in the atomizing tube 111. A liquid storage part 120 is provided between the atomizing tube 111 and the side wall of the liquid storage tank 10. The liquid storage part 120 is used to store the atomized matrix. A heating element and a liquid guide part are provided in the atomizing tube 111. The liquid guide part is wrapped on the heating element. The liquid guide part is connected to the liquid storage part 120 through a through hole provided on the atomizing tube 111 to guide the atomized matrix in the liquid storage part 120 to the heating element. The atomized matrix is ​​heated and atomized by the heating element to form an aerosol. Among them, the liquid guide part can be oil-conducting cotton; the material of the heating element can be a heating wire or a heating net made of iron-chromium-aluminum, stainless steel, nickel-chromium alloy and the like; the liquid storage part 120 can be oil-storing cotton, and its material can include linen cotton and oil-soaked cotton.

[0051] Specifically, the capacity of the atomized matrix in the liquid storage tank 10 may be 1 to 3 ml. For example, the capacity of the atomized matrix in the liquid storage tank 10 may be 1 ml, 1.2 ml, 2 ml, 3 ml, and any value in between.

The air guide tube 310 is inserted into the air guide channel 201, and a connecting port 301 is provided on the side wall of the air guide tube 310. The connecting port 301 is connected to the space inside the air guide tube 310, and the connecting port 301 is connected to the opening 203 of one of the multiple sub-flavor chambers 210, and the atomization channel 101 and the sub-flavor chamber 210 are connected to the suction nozzle 30 through the air guide tube 310. The flavor gas volatilized from the flavor piece 220 in the sub-flavor chamber 210 can flow to the mouthpiece 30 through the opening 203, the connecting port 301, and the air guide tube 310 in sequence. The aerosol generated by the atomization core 110 can flow to the mouthpiece 30 along the atomization channel 101 and the air guide tube 310. The aerosol generated by the atomization core 110 and the flavor gas volatilized from the flavor piece 220 can be mixed in the air guide tube 310 and discharged from the mouthpiece 30. By rotating the mouthpiece 30, the air guide tube 310 can be driven to rotate, so that the connecting port 301 is connected to different openings 203, thereby allowing the user to experience aerosols with different mixed flavors.

[0057] In some embodiments, Figure 3 and Figure 5 As shown, the suction nozzle 30 is provided with a connecting groove 306, and the flavor chamber 20 is at least partially inserted into the connecting groove 306. The outer wall of the flavor chamber 20 is provided with a first clamping portion 610, and the inner wall of the connecting groove 306 is provided with a second clamping portion 331. When the suction nozzle 30 is connected to one of the multiple sub-flavor chambers 210, the first clamping portion 610 and the second clamping portion 331 form a clamping fit.

[0058] Specifically, the first clamping portion 610 may be a convex block protruding from the outer wall of the flavor bin 20, the second clamping portion 331 may be a groove, the number of the first clamping portion 610 may be one, the number of the second clamping portion 331 may be multiple and respectively correspond to multiple sub-flavor bins 210. In some other embodiments, the first clamping portion 610 may also be a groove, in which case the second clamping portion 331 may be a convex block, the number of the first clamping portion 610 may be one or more, and the number of the second clamping portion 331 may also be one or more, and it is only necessary to ensure that when the suction nozzle 30 is connected to any sub-flavor bin 210, the first clamping portion 610 and the second clamping portion 331 form a clamping fit.

[0059] In some embodiments, Figure 8 , Fig. 9 and Fig.11 As shown, a third clamping portion 311 is provided at one end of the air guide tube 310 away from the suction nozzle 30, and a fourth clamping portion 260 is provided on the side wall of the air guide channel 201.

[0062] In some embodiments, the cover member 70 is an integral structure, and the cover member 70 may be annular and disposed around the air guide tube 310, and the mounting openings 207 of the plurality of sub-flavor bins 210 may be blocked by the cover member 70. When the nozzle 30 and the flavor bin 20 are separated, the cover member 70 may be removed from the mounting opening 207, and the flavor member 220 may be loaded into the sub-flavor bin 210 through the mounting opening 207. In addition, the mounting opening 207 may also be used to replenish flavoring agents into the sub-flavor bins 210.

[0063] Specifically, when the suction nozzle 30 and the flavor bin 20 are connected, the cover member 70 is abutted between the suction nozzle 30 and the flavor bin 20 , so that the cover member 70 cannot be separated from the flavor bin 20 and is sealed and connected to the edge of the installation opening 207 .

When the suction nozzle 30 and the flavor chamber 20 are connected, the first clamping portion 312 and the second clamping portion 361 form a clamping fit, so that the suction nozzle 30 and the air guide pipe 310 cannot rotate relative to each other.

[0065] Specifically, the first stopper 312 may be a groove, and the second stopper 361 may be a convex block. In some other embodiments, the first stopper 312 may also be a convex block, and the second stopper 361 may also be a groove.

By rotating the suction nozzle 30, different sub-flavor chambers 210 can be switched to be connected to the air guide tube 310, so that the aerosol generated by the atomization core 110 can be mixed with different flavor gases in the air guide tube 310, so that the aerosol generated by the atomization device has different flavors.

[0070] In some embodiments, when the side wall of the air duct 310 seals the opening 203 of the cover flavor chamber 210 , a closed space is formed between the sub-flavor chamber 210 , the cover member 70 , and the side wall of the air duct 310 , so that the flavor gas volatilized by the flavor member 220 cannot overflow the sub-flavor chamber 210 .

[0071] In some embodiments, when the atomizer 100 is not in use, the connecting port 301 of the air duct 310 can be rotated to a position that is not connected to the sub-flavor chamber 210, and the side wall of the air duct 310 covers the openings 203 of all the sub-flavor chambers 210, so that all the sub-flavor chambers 210 form a closed space, and the flavor gas volatilized by the flavor component 220 in the sub-flavor chamber 210 cannot overflow the sub-flavor chamber 210, so as to reduce the volatilization of the flavor component 220 during transportation and storage, thereby increasing the service life of the atomizer 100.

[0072] In some embodiments, Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the flavor bin 20 is provided with a connecting pipe 630, the air guide channel 201 is provided in the connecting pipe 630, and a partition 640 is connected between the side wall of the flavor bin 20 and the connecting pipe 630, and the partition 640 is used to separate the multiple sub-flavor bins 210. The connecting port 301 of the air guide pipe 310 can be rotated to a position where it is not connected with the opening 203, and at this time, the connecting port 301 is covered by the side wall of the connecting pipe 630.

[0073] Specifically, when the connecting port 301 is covered by the side wall of the connecting tube 630, the first clamping portion 610 and the second clamping portion 331 form a clamping fit or the third clamping portion 311 and the fourth clamping portion 260 form a clamping fit to ensure that during transportation, the relative positions of the air duct 310 and the sub-flavor chamber 210 are limited so that the sub-flavor chamber 210 is not connected to the air duct 310.

[0074] In some embodiments, one of the plurality of sub-flavor chambers 210 may not be provided with a flavor element 220. When the mouthpiece 30 is connected to the sub-flavor chamber 210 without the flavor element 220, the aerosol generated by the atomizer core 110 is not mixed with the flavor gas and is directly discharged from the mouthpiece 30, so that the user can experience the original flavor of the aerosol. At the same time, during the transportation and storage of the atomizer 100, the sub-flavor chamber 210 without the flavor element 220 may be connected to the communication port 301 of the air guide tube 310, so that the other sub-flavor chambers 210 form a closed space.

[0075] In some embodiments, the communication port 301 and the opening 203 may form different communication areas according to the different rotation angles of the suction nozzle 30 relative to the flavor bin 20. Specifically, a snap-fit ​​structure may not be provided between the suction nozzle 30 and the flavor bin 20, or between the air duct 310 and the flavor bin 20, that is, the relative position between the air duct 310 and the flavor bin 20 is not limited, so as to achieve a stepless adjustment of the flavor mixing effect. When the communication area between the communication port 301 and the opening 203 is small, the flavor gas mixed in the aerosol generated by the atomization core 110 is correspondingly small. When the communication area between the communication port 301 and the opening 203 gradually increases, the flavor gas mixed in the aerosol gradually increases, so that the flavor of the aerosol is stronger, so as to provide a richer taste change.

[0076] In some other embodiments, during the process of the connecting port 301 turning from one sub-flavor warehouse 210 to another sub-flavor warehouse 210, the connecting area between the connecting port 301 and the opening 203 of one of the sub-flavor warehouses 210 gradually increases, and the connecting area between the connecting port 301 and the opening 203 of the other sub-flavor warehouse 210 gradually decreases. During this process, the connecting port 301 can be connected to two sub-flavor warehouses 210 at the same time to achieve a flavor gradient effect.

[0077] In some embodiments, Fig.13 As shown, an air inlet groove 3101 is provided at one end of the air guide tube 310 close to the liquid storage tank 10, and the air inlet groove 3101 is connected to the air guide tube 310, and the cross-sectional area of ​​the air inlet groove 3101 gradually increases in the direction away from the suction nozzle 30, and the projection surface of the atomizing tube 111 toward the plane perpendicular to the extension direction of the atomizing channel 101 is located within the projection surface of the air inlet groove 3101 toward the plane perpendicular to the extension direction of the atomizing channel 101. Specifically, the atomizing tube 111 is inserted into the air inlet groove 3101, so that the airflow flowing out of the atomizing tube 111 can fully flow to the air inlet groove 3101, and flow into the air guide tube 310 through the air inlet groove 3101.

[0078] In some embodiments, Figure 6 and Fig.10As shown, the atomizer 100 includes a chamber body 60, which includes a liquid storage chamber 10 and a flavor chamber 20, and the chamber body 60 is an integrated structure. The liquid storage chamber 10 and the flavor chamber 20 are designed as an integrated structure, so that there is no gap between the liquid storage chamber 10 and the flavor chamber 20, which greatly reduces the risk of leakage of the atomized matrix, and at the same time makes the connection between the liquid storage chamber 10 and the flavor chamber 20 tighter, which can make full use of the internal space of the atomizer 100, improve the space utilization rate of the atomizer 100, and is conducive to the miniaturization of the atomizer 100.

[0079] Specifically, the bin body 60 can be formed by integral injection molding, and the liquid storage bin 10 and the flavor bin 20 are formed together in one process, which can reduce process costs and material costs.

[0080] In some embodiments, the liquid storage tank 10 and the flavor tank 20 may also be a separate structure, the flavor tank 20 is rotatably connected to the liquid storage tank 10, and the suction nozzle 30 is fixedly connected to the liquid storage tank 10 through the air guide tube 310, and the user can achieve flavor adjustment and switching by rotating the flavor tank 20 while the liquid storage tank 10 and the suction nozzle 30 are fixed. In some other embodiments, the suction nozzle 30 is fixedly connected to the flavor tank 20, and the air guide tube 310 is fixedly connected to the liquid storage tank 10, and the user can achieve flavor adjustment and switching by rotating the suction nozzle 30 and the flavor tank 20 together.

[0081] In some embodiments, the liquid storage tank 10 is provided with a liquid replenishing hole, which is used to replenish the atomized matrix in the liquid storage tank 10, and the atomizer 100 also includes a blocking piece, which is used to block the liquid replenishing hole.

[0082] Specifically, the refill hole can be opened on the side wall of the liquid storage tank 10, and the sealing member can be a silicone plug. When the atomized matrix in the liquid storage tank 10 is exhausted, the user can pull out the silicone plug and use a syringe outside the liquid storage tank 10 to inject the atomized matrix into the liquid storage tank 10 through the refill hole, so that the user can replenish the atomized matrix independently.

[0083] In some embodiments, the side wall of the flavor bin 20 may also be provided with a liquid replenishing hole, and the liquid replenishing hole may be blocked with a blocking member so that the user can replenish the flavoring agent on his own.

[0084] The present application also provides an atomization device, such as Fig.12 and Fig.13 As shown, the atomization device includes a power supply assembly 40 and the atomizer 100 of the above embodiment, and the power supply assembly 40 is used to supply power to the atomizer 100 .

[0085] In some embodiments, the power supply assembly 40 includes a battery core 410 , and the battery core 410 is electrically connected to the atomizer core 110 .

[0086] In some embodiments, the power supply assembly 40 includes a first shell 420 , the first shell 420 is provided with an installation cavity 4201 , the battery cell 410 is installed in the installation cavity 4201 , and the atomization channel 101 is connected to the outside through the installation cavity 4201 .

[0087] In some embodiments, the atomization device further includes a shell 50, a nozzle 30 is disposed at one end of the shell 50, the nozzle 30 is rotatably connected to the shell 50, and the liquid storage tank 10, the flavor tank 20 and the power supply assembly 40 are disposed in a space enclosed by the shell 50 and the nozzle 30.

[0088] In some embodiments, Fig.14 As shown, the flavor chamber 20 is provided with a third locking portion 270, and the outer shell 50 is provided with a fourth locking portion 510. The third locking portion 270 and the fourth locking portion 510 form a snap fit, and the outer shell 50 and the flavor chamber 20 cannot rotate relative to each other, so that when the suction nozzle 30 rotates relative to the outer shell 50, the flavor chamber 20 will not rotate.

[0089] In some embodiments, the battery cell 410, the liquid storage tank 10, the flavor tank 20, and the suction nozzle 30 are stacked in sequence along the extension direction of the atomization channel 101, so that the atomization device has a compact structure design, which is beneficial to improving space utilization; at the same time, the atomization device is shaped like a slender strip, which can enhance the aesthetics of the atomization device and facilitate user hand-held use.

[0090] In some embodiments, the flavor chamber 20 is provided with a plurality of first detection members, and the plurality of first detection members correspond one-to-one to the plurality of sub-flavor chambers 210. The suction nozzle 30 is provided with a second detection member. When one of the plurality of sub-flavor chambers 210 is connected to the suction nozzle 30, the corresponding first detection member and the second detection member are electrically connected, and a first detection signal is sent to the power supply component 40 of the atomization device.

[0091] In some embodiments, the first detection member and the second detection member can be conductive metal sheets, and the first detection member can be electrically connected to the power supply component 40. The power supply component 40 is provided with a control module, and the control module is used to receive a first detection signal emitted by the first detection member, and emit a prompt signal based on the first detection signal to indicate the type of the sub-flavor chamber 210 connected to the suction nozzle 30.

[0092] In some embodiments, the first detection member can be disposed on the outer wall of the flavor chamber 20, and the second detection member can be disposed on the inner wall of the connecting groove 306 of the suction nozzle 30. When the flavor chamber 20 is inserted into the connecting groove 306 and rotated relative to the suction nozzle 30, the first detection member and the second detection member can be electrically connected.

[0093] Specifically, when the first detection component and the second detection component are connected, they can form a loop with the power supply component 40 to send out a first detection signal.

[0094] Specifically, the control module is disposed on a circuit board, and the battery core 410 is electrically connected to the atomizer core 110 through the circuit board.

[0095] In some embodiments, a display screen may be provided on the housing 50, and the control module may control the display screen to display a prompt signal according to the first detection signal to prompt the type of the sub-flavor chamber 210 connected to the suction nozzle 30. For example, different sub-flavor chambers 210 may volatilize to produce flavor gases of different fruit flavors, and the display screen may display fruit patterns corresponding to the flavor gases discharged from the suction nozzle 30 in real time.

[0096] In some embodiments, Figure 7 As shown, the atomizer 100 and the power supply component 40 are detachably connected, and an electrode component 80 is provided at the end of the atomizer 100 away from the suction nozzle 30. The power supply component 40 can be electrically connected to the atomization core 110 through the electrode component 80. The electrode component 80 can send a second detection signal to the power supply component 40. The control module of the power supply component 40 is used to receive the second detection signal and make an anti-counterfeiting judgment on the atomizer 100 according to the second detection signal.

[0097] In some embodiments, when the power supply component 40 cannot recognize the second detection signal, it is determined that the connected atomizer 100 is fake, and the power supply component 40 may not work, or work at an extremely low voltage, so that the taste of the aerosol produced by the atomization device is poor. At the same time, the display screen may display information such as "fake" or "mismatched" to prompt the user to replace the atomizer 100.

[0098] In some embodiments, the control module can make an anti-counterfeiting judgment by detecting the resistance of the atomizer 100. Specifically, the control module can judge the resistance of the atomizer 100 by detecting the current value at the electrode member 80. Under the same voltage, when the resistance of the atomizer 100 is too large, the current value at the electrode member 80 is too small. The control module judges the authenticity of the atomizer 100 based on whether the detected resistance of the atomizer 100 is within the required resistance range. When the resistance of the atomizer 100 is within the required resistance range, the control module can control the battery cell 410 to supply power normally, so that the atomization device can work normally.

[0099] The atomizer 100 and atomizing device provided in the present application are characterized in that the atomizer 100 is provided with a plurality of sub-flavor chambers 210, and the suction nozzle 30 is connected with one of the plurality of sub-flavor chambers 210 and the liquid storage chamber 10 to discharge aerosols of a plurality of mixed flavors, so that the user can conveniently experience a variety of flavors and improve the user experience; the atomizer 100 uses the flavor gas generated by the volatilization of the flavor element 220 to form a variety of flavors, and does not need to design a complex heating atomization system, which is conducive to saving material costs and design space, and is conducive to the miniaturization of the atomizing device; at the same time, the detachable connection between the suction nozzle 30 and the flavor chamber 20, as well as the setting of the cover 70 and the liquid replenishing hole, can facilitate the user to replace and replenish the atomizing matrix and the flavor element 220 by themselves, which is conducive to improving the convenience of the atomizer 100.
