This is to avoid the core portion of the present application being overwhelmed by excessive descriptions, and for those skilled in the art, it is not necessary to describe these related operations in detail. They will fully understand the related operations based on the description in the specification and the general technical knowledge in the art.

[0029] In addition, the features, operations, or characteristics described in the specification may be combined in any appropriate manner to form various embodiments. Furthermore, the steps or actions in the method description may be reordered or adjusted in a manner readily apparent to those skilled in the art. Therefore, the various sequences in the specification and drawings are provided solely for the purpose of clearly describing a particular embodiment and are not intended to be mandatory, unless otherwise specified.

[0030] The serial numbers assigned to components herein, such as "first," "second," etc., are used solely to distinguish the objects being described and do not convey any sequential or technical meaning. References to "connection" and "coupling" herein, unless otherwise specified, include both direct and indirect connections (couplings).

[0031] Next, the atomization equipment provided in the embodiments of the present application is introduced in detail.

[0032] Please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 1 The diagram is a schematic diagram of the structure of an atomization device provided in an embodiment of the present application. The atomization device includes a nozzle 1, a heating circuit assembly 2, and a controller 3. A sensing module 11 is disposed within the nozzle 1. The sensing module 11 is configured to output an electrical signal corresponding to the area of ​​contact with the nozzle 1, with the magnitude of the electrical signal being positively correlated with the area of ​​contact with the nozzle 1. The controller 3 generates a corresponding conduction signal based on the magnitude of the output electrical signal. The heating circuit assembly 2 generates heat at a corresponding heating power based on the conduction signal, such that the heating power is positively correlated with the magnitude of the electrical signal.

[0033] When the atomizing device is used, the nozzle 1 will be touched, such as the user's lips will touch the nozzle 1, to perform inhalation; when the nozzle 1 is touched, its built-in sensing module 11 will sense and output a corresponding electrical signal according to the area of ​​the nozzle 1 touched, and the size of the output electrical signal is positively correlated with the area of ​​the nozzle 1 touched. That is, the larger the area of ​​the nozzle 1 touched, the larger the electrical signal output by the sensing module 11, and the smaller the area of ​​the nozzle 1 touched, the smaller the electrical signal output by the sensing module 11.

[0034] As an example, when the area of ​​the nozzle 1 in contact accounts for 30% of the area of ​​the nozzle 1, the size of the electrical signal output by the sensing module 11 is X; when the area of ​​the nozzle 1 in contact accounts for 60% of the area of ​​the nozzle 1, the size of the electrical signal output by the sensing module 11 is Y; when the area of ​​the nozzle 1 in contact accounts for 100% of the area of ​​the nozzle 1, the size of the electrical signal output by the sensing module 11 is Z; where Z is greater than Y and greater than X.

[0035] In some embodiments, in order to facilitate the sensor module 11 to output corresponding electrical signals according to the area of ​​the nozzle 1 being touched, and to facilitate the user to suck, please refer to Figure 2 The nozzle 1 may include: a first section 12, the diameter of the first section 12 is a first diameter; a second section 13, the second section 13 is vertically connected to the first section 12, the diameter of the second section 13 is a second diameter, and the second diameter is larger than the first diameter.

[0036] In addition, in some embodiments, please refer to Figure 2 The nozzle 1 may further include a third section 14 , which is located between the first section 12 and the second section 13 , and a diameter of the third section 14 gradually increases from the first section 12 to the second section 13 .

[0037] Thus, the sensing module 11 can output an electrical signal of corresponding magnitude based on whether the first segment 12, the second segment 13, and the third segment 14 of the nozzle 1 are touched. As an example, if the first segment 12 of the nozzle 1 is touched, it means that the area of ​​the nozzle 1 touched may account for 30% of the area of ​​the nozzle 1, and the sensing module 11 can output an electrical signal of magnitude X; if the first segment 12 and the third segment 14 of the nozzle 1 are touched, it means that the area of ​​the nozzle 1 touched may account for 60% of the area of ​​the nozzle 1, and the sensing module 11 can output an electrical signal of magnitude Y; if the first segment 12, the second segment 13, and the third segment 14 of the nozzle 1 are all touched, it means that the area of ​​the nozzle 1 touched may account for 100% of the area of ​​the nozzle 1, and the sensing module 11 can output an electrical signal of magnitude Z; wherein Z is greater than Y and greater than X.

[0038] It should be noted that the above description assumes a positive correlation between the magnitude of the electrical signal and the area of ​​contact with the nozzle 1. Alternatively, in practice, the magnitude of the electrical signal and the area of ​​contact with the nozzle 1 may be negatively correlated. That is, the larger the area of ​​contact with the nozzle 1, the smaller the electrical signal output by the sensing module 11; and the smaller the area of ​​contact with the nozzle 1, the larger the electrical signal output by the sensing module 11. In other words, the embodiments of this application do not limit the correlation between the magnitude of the electrical signal and the area of ​​contact with the nozzle 1.

[0039] In addition, the above description is based on the suction nozzle 1 including the first section 12, the second section 13 and the third section 14. Alternatively, in application, the suction nozzle 1 may also have other shapes, which is not limited in the embodiments of the present application.

[0040] In some embodiments, the sensing module 11 includes a variable capacitor, the capacitance of which changes according to the area of ​​contact with the nozzle 1 to output a corresponding electrical signal.

[0041] Continuing with the above description, after the sensing module 11 outputs a corresponding electrical signal according to the area of ​​the nozzle 1 being contacted, the controller 3 receives the electrical signal and generates a corresponding conduction signal according to the magnitude of the electrical signal.

[0042] In some embodiments, the controller 3 may determine a target contact area according to the size of the electrical signal, where the target contact area is the area where the nozzle 1 is currently contacted, and then generate a corresponding conduction signal according to the target contact area.

[0043] That is, after receiving the electrical signal, the controller 3 can first determine the contact area of ​​the nozzle 1 based on the magnitude of the electrical signal, such as the contact area between the user and the nozzle 1 during suction, i.e., the target contact area. For example, the controller 3 stores a correspondence between the magnitude of the electrical signal and the contact area of ​​the nozzle 1. Thus, after receiving the electrical signal, the controller 3 can directly determine the target contact area based on the magnitude of the electrical signal and the correspondence. For example, assuming that the correspondence includes that when the size of the electrical signal is X, the corresponding contact area is 30% of the area of ​​nozzle 1, when the size of the electrical signal is Y, the corresponding contact area is 60% of the area of ​​nozzle 1, and when the size of the electrical signal is Z, the corresponding contact area is 100% of the area of ​​nozzle 1; if the size of the electrical signal received by the controller 3 is X, then the controller 3 can determine from the correspondence that the target contact area is 30% of the area of ​​nozzle 1; if the size of the electrical signal received by the controller 3 is Y, then the controller 3 can determine from the correspondence that the target contact area is 60% of the area of ​​nozzle 1; if the size of the electrical signal received by the controller 3 is Z, then the controller 3 can determine from the correspondence that the target contact area is 100% of the area of ​​nozzle 1.

[0044] It should be noted that the above description is based on the size of the electrical signal in the corresponding relationship being a specific data, such as X, Y or Z. Alternatively, in the application, the size of the electrical signal in the corresponding relationship can also be a range. For example, the corresponding relationship may include the size of the electrical signal being within the range of X1 to X2, and the corresponding contact area being 30% of the area of ​​the nozzle 1; the size of the electrical signal being within the range of Y1 to Y2, and the corresponding contact area being 60% of the area of ​​the nozzle 1; and the size of the electrical signal being within the range of Z1 to Z2, and the corresponding contact area being 100% of the area of ​​the nozzle 1. In this way, the controller 3 can determine the target contact area based on the range in which the size of the received electrical signal falls within the corresponding relationship. In other words, the embodiments of the present application do not limit the specific content of the corresponding relationship.

[0045] Furthermore, the above description is based on the controller 3 determining the target contact area based on the correspondence between the magnitude of the stored electrical signal and the area of ​​contact with the nozzle 1. Alternatively, in practice, the controller 3 may determine the target contact area using other methods. This embodiment of the present application is not limited to this.

[0046] Continuing with the above description, after determining the target contact area, the controller 3 also needs to generate a corresponding conduction signal according to the target contact area, so as to control the heating circuit group 2 to generate heat in the subsequent process.

[0047] For example, assuming that the target contact area is 30% of the area of ​​the nozzle 1, it means that the heating power required when the user is currently inhaling from the atomizing device is relatively low. Therefore, the controller 3 can generate a conduction signal corresponding to low heating power. For another example, assuming that the target contact area is 60% of the area of ​​the nozzle 1, it means that the heating power required when the user is currently inhaling from the atomizing device is greater than when the target contact area is 30% of the area of ​​the nozzle 1. Therefore, the controller 3 can generate a conduction signal corresponding to medium heating power. For another example, assuming that the target contact area is 100% of the area of ​​the nozzle 1, it means that the heating power required when the user is currently inhaling from the atomizing device is relatively high. Therefore, the controller 3 can generate a conduction signal corresponding to high heating power.

[0048] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 3The controller 3 may include a first control module 31 and a second control module 32, wherein the input end of the first control module 31 is connected to the sensing module 11, and is used to determine the target contact area according to the size of the electrical signal. The first control module 31 is also connected to the work site and the power supply; the input end of the second control module 32 is connected to the output end of the first control module 31, and the output end of the second control module 32 is connected to the heating circuit group 2, and is used to generate a corresponding conduction signal according to the target contact area, and output the generated conduction signal to the heating circuit group 2. The second control module 32 is also connected to the work site and the power supply.

[0049] In addition, in some embodiments, please refer to Figure 4 The first control module 31 includes a chip U1, a pinning resistor R1, and a capacitor C1. The first terminal of chip U1 is connected to the sensing module 11. The second terminal of chip U1 is connected to the power supply, one end of capacitor C1, and one end of pinning resistor R1, respectively. The third terminal of chip U1 is connected to the operating ground. The fourth terminal of chip U1 is connected to the second control module 32 and the other end of pinning resistor R1, respectively. The other end of capacitor C1 is connected to the operating ground. Chip U1 is used to determine the target contact area based on the magnitude of the electrical signal. Pinning resistor R1 is used for voltage division, and capacitor C1 is used for filtering.

[0050] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 4 The second control module 32 includes a chip U2 and a pinning resistor R2. The first end of chip U2 is connected to the heating circuit group 2, the second end of chip U2 is used to connect to the working ground, the third end of chip U2 is connected to the fourth end of chip U1, the fourth end of chip U2 is connected to one end of the pinning resistor R2, the fifth end of chip U2 is also connected to the heating circuit group 2, and the other end of the pinning resistor R2 is connected to the working ground. Among them, chip U2 is used to generate a corresponding conduction signal based on the target contact area and output the generated conduction signal to the heating circuit group 2. The pinning resistor R2 is used to pull up or pull down to ensure that the fourth end of chip U2 is in a stable state.

[0051] It should be noted that the above description is based on the controller 3 including the first control module 31 and the second control module 32. Alternatively, in application, the controller 3 may also include other components, more components, or fewer components. This embodiment of the application does not limit this.

[0052] After the controller 3 generates the corresponding conduction signal, the heating circuit group 2 can receive the conduction signal and generate heat with the corresponding heating power according to the conduction signal.

[0053] For example, assuming that the conduction signal is a signal corresponding to low heating power, then after the heating circuit group 2 receives the conduction signal, it will generate heat at low heating power; for another example, assuming that the conduction signal is a signal corresponding to medium heating power, then after the heating circuit group 2 receives the conduction signal, it will generate heat at medium heating power; for another example, assuming that the conduction signal is a signal corresponding to high heating power, then after the heating circuit group 2 receives the conduction signal, it will generate heat at high heating power.

[0054] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 5 The heating circuit group 2 includes a first heating circuit 21 and a second heating circuit 22. The first heating circuit 21 is connected to the first end of the chip U2, and the first heating circuit 21 is also connected to the power supply and the working ground; the second heating circuit 22 is connected to the fifth end of the chip U2, and the second heating circuit is also connected to the power supply and the working ground; and the heating power corresponding to the first heating circuit 21 is less than the heating power corresponding to the second heating circuit 22. Therefore, the first heating circuit 21 and the second heating circuit 22 will be turned on according to the conduction signal, so that the heating circuit group 2 will generate heat with the corresponding heating power according to the conduction signal.

[0055] As an example, when the conduction signal corresponds to low heating power, the first heating circuit 21 will be turned on and the second heating circuit 22 will be turned off, so that the heating power of the heating circuit group 2 is low heating power; when the conduction signal corresponds to medium heating power, the second heating circuit 22 will be turned on and the first heating circuit 21 will be turned off, so that the heating power of the heating circuit group 2 is medium heating power; when the conduction signal corresponds to high heating power, both the first heating circuit 21 and the second heating circuit 22 will be turned on, so that the heating power of the heating circuit group 2 is high heating power.

[0056] It should be noted that the above description is based on the heating circuit group 2 including the first heating circuit 21 and the second heating circuit 22. Alternatively, in application, the heating circuit group 2 may also include a third heating circuit, and the power of the third heating circuit is greater than the power of the second heating circuit 22. Thus, when the conduction signal corresponds to low heating power, the first heating circuit 21 will be turned on and the other circuits will be disconnected. When the conduction signal corresponds to medium heating power, the second heating circuit 22 will be turned on and the other circuits will be disconnected. When the conduction signal corresponds to high heating power, the third heating circuit will be turned on. Alternatively, the heating circuit group 2 may also include only one heating circuit, and the heating power may be changed by changing the duty cycle of the heating circuit. Alternatively, the heating circuit group 2 may also include more or fewer heating circuits, and this embodiment of the application does not limit this.

[0057] In addition, the above description is based on the fact that the conduction signal can be a signal corresponding to low heating power, a signal corresponding to medium heating power, and a signal corresponding to high heating power. Alternatively, the conduction signal can also be a signal carrying the magnitude of the required heating power. For example, the conduction signal can be a signal corresponding to 50% heating power, or a signal corresponding to 75% heating power, etc. The embodiments of the present application are not limited to the conduction signal.

[0058] In addition, in some embodiments, please refer to Figure 6 The first heating circuit 21 includes a MOS transistor Q1, a pinning resistor R3, and a first heating element 211. The gate G of the MOS transistor Q1 is connected to the first terminal of the second chip U2 and one end of the pinning resistor R3, respectively. The source S of the MOS transistor is connected to the power supply and the other end of the pinning resistor R3, respectively. The drain D of the MOS transistor Q1 is connected to one end of the first heating element 211, and the other end of the first heating element 211 is connected to the working ground.

[0059] When the conduction signal indicates that the first heating circuit 21 needs to be turned on, since the gate G of the MOS transistor Q1 is connected to the second chip U2, the second chip U2 can control the conduction or disconnection of the MOS transistor Q1, thereby controlling the conduction or disconnection of the first heating circuit 21. In addition, the drain D of the MOS transistor Q1 is connected to one end of the first heating element 211. Therefore, when the MOS transistor Q1 is turned on, the first heating element 211 can generate heat, and when the MOS transistor Q1 is turned off, the first heating element 211 cannot generate heat.

[0060] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 6 The second heating circuit 22 includes a MOS transistor Q2, a pinning resistor R4, and a second heating element 221. The gate G of the MOS transistor Q2 is connected to the fifth terminal of the second chip U2 and one end of the pinning resistor R4, respectively. The source S of the MOS transistor is connected to the power supply and the other end of the pinning resistor R4, respectively. The drain D of the MOS transistor Q2 is connected to one end of the second heating element 221, and the other end of the second heating element 221 is connected to the operating ground.

[0061] When the conduction signal indicates that the second heating circuit 22 needs to be turned on, since the gate G of the MOS transistor Q2 is connected to the second chip U2, the second chip U2 can control the conduction or disconnection of the MOS transistor Q2, and thus control the conduction or disconnection of the second heating circuit 22. In addition, the drain D of the MOS transistor Q2 is connected to one end of the second heating element 221. Therefore, when the MOS transistor Q1 is turned on, the second heating element 221 can generate heat, and when the MOS transistor Q2 is turned off, the second heating element 221 cannot generate heat.

[0062] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 6The atomizer device also includes a prompt module 4, which is used to provide corresponding prompts. Prompt module 4 includes a current-limiting resistor R5 and a light-emitting diode Z1. One end of the current-limiting resistor R5 is connected to the sixth terminal of chip U2, and the other end of the current-limiting resistor R5 is connected to one end of the light-emitting diode Z1. The other end of the light-emitting diode is connected to the working ground. The current-limiting resistor R5 is used to ensure that the light-emitting diode Z1 emits light under normal operating current to prevent it from burning out due to excessive current. The light-emitting diode Z1 is used to provide corresponding prompts by emitting light. For example, when the light-emitting diode Z1 is illuminated, it indicates that the current user is taking a puff.

[0063] In some embodiments, in order to obtain the user's puffing habits and improve the user's usage experience, the controller 3 can also record multiple target contact areas in the current cycle to obtain an area value group, and then adjust the power correspondence according to the number of repetitions of the area values ​​in the area value group and the size relationship of the area values ​​in the area value group. The power correspondence is the correspondence between the contact area and the heating power, wherein the contact area is proportional to the heating power.

[0064] That is, the controller 3 can record multiple target contact areas determined within a current cycle, such as within a period of time or within a certain number of puffs, to obtain an area value set. Since this area value set corresponds to the current cycle, the user's puffing habits during the current cycle can be obtained based on this area value set, such as the user's contact habits with the nozzle 1 during the cycle.

[0065] After obtaining the contact area group, in order to determine the contact habits of the user with the nozzle 1 during the cycle, the original correspondence between the contact area and the heating power can be adjusted according to the number of repetitions and size relationship of the area values ​​in the area value group.

[0066] In some embodiments, the controller 3 may determine at least two area values ​​with the greatest number of repetitions from the area value group, and then adjust the power correspondence according to the magnitude relationship of the at least two area values.

[0067] Because the more times an area value is repeated, the more likely the user is to have that area value in contact with the nozzle 1 . Therefore, the controller 3 may first determine at least two area values ​​with the most repetitions from the area value group to proceed to subsequent steps.

[0068] In addition, in some embodiments, the controller 3 can determine the first area value, the second area value, and the third area value with the greatest number of repetitions from the area value group, wherein the first area value, the second area value, and the third area value increase in magnitude in sequence; and the power correspondence includes three different correspondences between contact areas and powers, then the controller 3 can adjust the power correspondence according to the following steps (1)-(3);

[0069] (1) The minimum contact area in the power correspondence is updated to the first area value, so that the heating power corresponding to the first area value is the heating power corresponding to the minimum contact area in the power correspondence.

[0070] In order to avoid the situation where the required heating power does not match the actual heating power because the user's lip contact habit with the nozzle 1 does not conform to the original power correspondence, the power correspondence can be adjusted according to the size of the area value in the area value group.

[0071] Based on the above description, the original power correspondence includes three different correspondences between contact area and power. These three different contact areas will have a size relationship, and accordingly, their corresponding powers will also have a size relationship, and the size of the contact area and the size of the power are positively correlated. As an example, the original power correspondence may include: a contact area of ​​30% of the area of ​​nozzle 1 corresponds to low heating power, a contact area of ​​60% of the area of ​​nozzle 1 corresponds to medium heating power, and a contact area of ​​100% of the area of ​​nozzle 1 corresponds to high heating power.

[0072] Continuing with the above description, the controller 3 determines three typical values ​​from the area value group, namely the first area value, the second area value and the third area value with the most repetitions, and the first area value is the smallest of the three area values. Therefore, the smallest contact area in the original power correspondence can be updated to the first area value.

[0073] As an example, assume the first area value is 17% of the area of ​​nozzle 1, and the original power correspondence has a minimum contact area of ​​30% of the area of ​​nozzle 1, corresponding to a low heating power. Therefore, the power correspondence for a contact area of ​​30% of the area of ​​nozzle 1 is updated to a contact area of ​​17% of the area of ​​nozzle 1, while the corresponding power remains unchanged. This allows the power corresponding to a contact area of ​​17% of the area of ​​nozzle 1 to be low heating power. Consequently, in subsequent processes, when the user's contact area with nozzle 1 is 17% of the area of ​​nozzle 1, the atomizer will generate heat at a low heating power, thereby meeting the user's puffing needs and improving the user experience.

[0074] (2) The maximum contact area in the power correspondence is updated to the third area value, so that the heating power corresponding to the third area value is the heating power corresponding to the maximum contact area in the power correspondence.

[0075] Continuing with the above description, since the third area value is the largest among the three area values, the largest contact area in the original power correspondence may be updated to the third area value.

[0076] As an example, assume the third area value is 30% of the area of ​​nozzle 1. The original power mapping relationship specifies a maximum contact area of ​​100% of the area of ​​nozzle 1, corresponding to a high heating power. Therefore, the power mapping relationship, which sets a contact area of ​​100% of the area of ​​nozzle 1 to a contact area of ​​30% of the area of ​​nozzle 1, will be updated to a high heating power for a contact area of ​​30% of the area of ​​nozzle 1. This allows the atomizer to generate heat at a high heating power when the user's contact area with nozzle 1 is 30% of the area of ​​nozzle 1. This will subsequently allow the atomizer to generate heat at a high heating power when the user's contact area with nozzle 1 is 30% of the area of ​​nozzle 1, thereby satisfying the user's puffing needs and improving their experience.

[0077] (3) The remaining contact area in the power correspondence is updated to a second area value, so that the heating power corresponding to the second area value is the heating power corresponding to the remaining contact area in the power correspondence.

[0078] Continuing with the above description, since the second area value is greater than the first area value and less than the third area value, the contact area in the middle of the power reduction correspondence can be updated to the second area value.

[0079] As an example, assume the second area value is 20% of the area of ​​nozzle 1. The original power correspondence has a contact area of ​​60% of the area of ​​nozzle 1, and its corresponding power is medium heating power. Therefore, the power correspondence from 60% of the area of ​​nozzle 1 to 20% of the area of ​​nozzle 1 is updated, and the corresponding power remains unchanged. This allows the power corresponding to 20% of the area of ​​nozzle 1 to be medium heating power. Consequently, in subsequent processes, when the user's contact area with nozzle 1 is 20% of the area of ​​nozzle 1, the atomizer will generate heat at medium heating power, meeting the user's puffing needs and improving the user experience.

[0080] It should be noted that the above description is based on determining the three area values ​​with the greatest number of repetitions from the area value group, and the power correspondence also includes three different contact area-power correspondences. Alternatively, in application, other area values ​​with the greatest number of repetitions can be determined from the area value group, and the power correspondence can also include different contact area-power correspondences of other values. In other words, the embodiments of the present application do not limit the number of area values ​​included in the area value group or the number of correspondences included in the power correspondence.

[0081] In some embodiments, since the user's puffing habits may change, in order to adjust the power correspondence according to the user's puffing habits and improve the user's usage experience, the controller 3 also needs to record multiple target contact areas in the next cycle to obtain an area value group, and the next cycle is the cycle following the current cycle; and return to the step of adjusting the power correspondence according to the number of repetitions of the area values ​​in the area value group and the size relationship of the area values ​​in the area value group.

[0082] In addition, in some embodiments, in order to avoid the atomization device from heating up due to accidental contact of the nozzle 1, the controller 3 can also determine whether the target contact area is not less than the first threshold and not greater than the second threshold; if the target contact area is not less than the first threshold and not greater than the second threshold, a corresponding conduction signal is generated according to the target contact area.

[0083] That is to say, the controller 3 will only generate a corresponding conduction signal based on the target contact area when the target contact area is not less than the first threshold and not greater than the second threshold; if the target contact area is less than the first threshold or the target contact area is greater than the second threshold, it means that the suction nozzle 1 may be accidentally touched, then the controller 3 will not generate a conduction signal.

[0084] For example, assuming that the first threshold is 5% of the area of ​​nozzle 1 and the second threshold is 100% of the area of ​​nozzle 1, then only when the target contact area is greater than 5% of the area of ​​nozzle 1 and less than 100% of the area of ​​nozzle 1, the controller 3 will generate a corresponding conduction signal according to the target contact area; otherwise, it is considered that nozzle 1 is accidentally touched, and the controller 3 will not generate a conduction signal.

[0085] The embodiment of the present application sets a sensing module in the nozzle of the atomizing device, and the sensing module can output a corresponding electrical signal according to the area of ​​the nozzle being contacted, so that the controller generates a corresponding conduction signal according to the size of the output electrical signal, and then causes the heating circuit group to generate heat with the corresponding heating power according to the conduction signal, so that the heating power is positively correlated with the size of the electrical signal. In other words, the embodiment of the present application provides an atomizing device that can operate with a corresponding heating power according to the contact area of ​​the nozzle, that is, automatically adjust the heating power through lip contact, which can simplify the process of power adjustment of the atomizing device. In addition, the controller in the atomizing device of the embodiment of the present application will also adjust the power correspondence according to the number of repetitions of the area value in the area value group corresponding to the current cycle, and the size relationship of the area values ​​in the area value group. Therefore, the power correspondence can be adjusted according to the user's puffing habits, which can meet the user's puffing needs and improve the user's puffing experience.

[0086] Next, another atomization device provided in an embodiment of the present application is introduced in detail.

[0087] Please refer to Figure 7 , Figure 7 : This is a structural diagram of another atomizing device provided in an embodiment of the present application. The atomizing device includes a nozzle 1, a heating circuit group 2, and a controller 3. A sensing module 11 is provided in the nozzle 1. The sensing module 11 includes a plurality of sensing sub-modules 111. The sensing module 11 is used to trigger at least one sensing sub-module 111 among the plurality of sensing sub-modules 111 according to the area of ​​contact with the nozzle. When triggered, at least one sensing sub-module 111 outputs an electrical signal, and the number of output electrical signals is positively correlated with the area of ​​contact with the nozzle 1. The controller 3 generates a corresponding conduction signal according to the number of output electrical signals. The heating circuit group 2 generates heat with a corresponding heating power according to the conduction signal, so that the heating power is positively correlated with the number of electrical signals.

[0088] That is to say, the sensing module 11 can trigger at least one of the multiple sensing sub-modules 111 included in it according to the contact area of ​​the suction nozzle 1. In this way, the at least one triggered sensing sub-module 111 will output at least one electrical signal. It can be seen that the number of output electrical signals is positively correlated with the contact area of ​​the suction nozzle 1, that is, the more the number of output electrical signals, the larger the contact area of ​​the suction nozzle 1, and the fewer the number of output electrical signals, the smaller the contact area of ​​the suction nozzle 1.

[0089] As an example, assume that the sensing module 11 includes three sensing sub-modules 111: a first sensing sub-module, a second sensing sub-module, and a third sensing sub-module. If the current contact area of ​​the nozzle 1 is 30% of the nozzle 1's area, any one of the first, second, and third sensing sub-modules 111 will be triggered, thereby outputting an electrical signal. Consequently, the controller can generate a conduction signal corresponding to the electrical signal. This conduction signal corresponds to a low heating power, enabling the heating circuit assembly to generate heat at a low heating power.

[0090] If the current contact area of ​​the nozzle 1 is 60% of the area of ​​the nozzle 1, any two of the first, second and third induction modules 111 will be triggered, thereby outputting two electrical signals. As a result, the controller can generate a conduction signal corresponding to the two electrical signals, and the conduction signal is a signal corresponding to the medium heating power, which can enable the heating circuit group to generate heat at the medium heating power.

[0091] If the current contact area of ​​the nozzle 1 is 100% of the area of ​​the nozzle 1, the first sensor module, the second sensor module and the third sensor module will all be triggered, thereby outputting three electrical signals. As a result, the controller can generate a conduction signal corresponding to the three electrical signals, and the conduction signal is a signal corresponding to high heating power, which can enable the heating circuit group to generate heat at high heating power.

[0092] It should be noted that the above description is based on an example in which the sensing module 11 includes three sensing sub-modules 111. Alternatively, in an application, the sensing module 11 may further include more sensing sub-modules 111. This embodiment of the present application does not limit this.

[0093] The embodiment of the present application sets a sensing module in the nozzle, and the sensing module includes multiple sensing sub-modules. The multiple sensing sub-modules can be triggered to output electrical signals based on the area of ​​the nozzle being contacted, so that the controller generates a conduction signal according to the number of output electrical signals, and then the heating circuit group generates heat with corresponding heating power according to the conduction signal, so that the heating power is positively correlated with the number of electrical signals. In other words, the embodiment of the present application provides an atomization device that can operate with corresponding heating power according to the contact area of ​​the nozzle, that is, the heating power can be automatically adjusted through lip contact, which can simplify the process of power adjustment of the atomization device.
