[0027] Combination Figure 1 The embodiment of the present application provides an atomization device 1. The atomization device 1 includes a housing 11 and an atomizer 2. The atomizer 2 is installed in the housing 11, and the atomizer 2 can atomize an atomization matrix into an aerosol for a user to inhale.

[0028] In some embodiments, the atomizer 1 further comprises a rotating frame 12, which is rotatably disposed in the housing 11, and at least two atomizers 2 are mounted on the rotating frame 12, and the rotating frame 12 can drive the atomizer 2 to rotate relative to the housing 11. The multiple atomizers 2 can be atomizers 2 of different types or flavors. In the atomizer 1, one of the multiple atomizers 2 is in working state, while the other atomizers 2 are idle. By driving the atomizer 2 to rotate by the rotating frame 12, the atomizer 2 in working state can be switched, thereby diversifying the atomization experience of the user.

[0029] In one embodiment, the atomization device 1 further comprises an electronic housing 30, which is disposed on one side of the housing 11 away from the rotation axis of the rotating frame 12. The electronic housing 30 is provided with electronic components, such as a display device, a circuit board, a control board, a battery, and the like.

[0030] In the related art, the atomizing device 1 usually generates condensation during use, and the condensation will affect the operation of the atomizing device 1. Usually, a device for absorbing condensation is set between the suction nozzle and the atomizer 2. However, this situation does not apply to the aforementioned situation where multiple atomizers 2 are used alternately. Since multiple atomizers 2 are used in turn, the suction nozzle and the atomizer 2 are rotatably matched, and it is difficult to install the device for absorbing condensation. Moreover, if the same device absorbs the condensation generated by multiple atomizers 2, there may also be a problem of insufficient absorption. In order to improve the above technical problems, the present application can provide the following embodiments.

[0031] Combination Figures 2 to 6, an embodiment of the present application provides an atomizer 2. The atomizer 2 includes a shell 20, a liquid storage member 23, an atomizing core 232, a liquid absorbing member 26, a sealing member 21 and an electrode mounting seat 22. An accommodating space is formed in the shell 20. The liquid storage member 23 is installed in the accommodating space, and the liquid storage member 23 can store an atomizing matrix. The liquid storage member 23 is formed with an aerosol channel 231. The atomizing core 232 is arranged in the aerosol channel 231. The atomizing core 232 can atomize the atomizing matrix into an aerosol. Optionally, the shell 20 is open at both ends, and the sealing member 21 and the electrode mounting seat 22 can respectively cover the openings at both ends.

[0032] The seal 21 and the electrode mounting seat 22 are respectively arranged at both ends of the housing 20. The seal 21 and the electrode mounting seat 22 can seal the accommodating space to reduce the problem of liquid leakage or air leakage. The liquid absorption member 26 is arranged in the accommodating space and is located between the seal 21 and the liquid storage member 23. Among them, the flow direction of the airflow in the atomizer 2 flows from the electrode mounting seat 22 along the aerosol channel 231 to the seal 21. During the flow process, the generated condensed liquid can be absorbed by the liquid absorption member 26. The liquid absorption member 26 is spaced apart from the liquid storage member 23 to prevent the atomized matrix in the liquid storage member 23 from flowing directly to the liquid absorption member 26.

[0033] In one embodiment, the liquid storage volume of the liquid storage member 23 gradually decreases in the direction from the electrode mounting seat 22 toward the sealing member 21. Optionally, the liquid storage volume of at least a portion of the liquid storage member 23 close to the sealing member 21 is zero. This arrangement can reduce the influence of the portion of the liquid storage member 23 close to the sealing member 21 on the liquid absorbing member 26. On the other hand, when the liquid storage volume of the portion of the liquid storage member 23 close to the sealing member 21 is small, the portion of the liquid storage member 23 can also absorb condensed liquid.

[0034] In summary, the liquid storage member 23 provided in the accommodating space can store the atomized matrix, and the liquid absorbing member 26 can absorb the condensed liquid generated during the flow of the aerosol. The present application integrates the functions required by the atomizing device 1 into the atomizer 2, which is conducive to the miniaturization of the atomizing device 1 installed by the atomizer 2. Furthermore, each atomizer 2 is separately provided with a liquid absorbing member 26, which can improve the aforementioned problems of high difficulty in installing the device for absorbing the condensed liquid and insufficient absorption.

[0035] In some embodiments, the absorbent member 26 is embedded in the sealing member 21, and the absorbent member 26 and the sealing member 21 have an interference fit. In one embodiment, the sealing member 21 includes a first end and a first extension portion, the first extension portion is arranged in an annular shape, and a space for installing the absorbent member 26 is formed inside the annular first extension portion. The first extension portion can extend into the shell 20 from the opening to achieve a sealing effect. The first end portion can fit with the end surface of the shell 20 to further achieve a sealing effect. In one embodiment, the interference fit between the absorbent member 26 and the sealing member 21 can be that the absorbent member 26 and the first extension portion are arranged in a contoured manner, and the size of the inner circle of the first extension portion is smaller than the size of the absorbent member 26, for example, the area of ​​the area enclosed by the inner circle of the first extension portion is smaller than the cross-sectional area of ​​the absorbent member 26. The interference fit between the absorbent member 26 and the sealing member 21 can also be that a plurality of convex strips are arranged on the inner periphery of the first extension portion, and the plurality of convex strips are interference fit with the absorbent member 26.

[0036] In some embodiments, an atomizer seat 24 is provided between the liquid storage member 23 and the electrode mounting seat 22, and the atomizer seat 24 is provided with a connecting hole 241 connected to the aerosol channel 231. The airflow can enter the aerosol channel 231 through the connecting hole 241. The atomizer seat 24 can separate the accommodating space, and the accommodating space on the side of the atomizer seat 24 close to the sealing member 21 can be used to accommodate structures for storing liquid such as the liquid storage member 23 and the liquid absorbing member 26. The accommodating space on the side of the atomizer seat 24 close to the electrode mounting seat 22 can be used for wiring or connection. Optionally, the atomizer seat 24 is integrally formed with the housing 20.

[0037] Further, the electrode mounting seat 22 is provided with an air inlet 221, the sealing member 21 is provided with an air outlet 211, and the liquid absorbing member 26 is provided with an air flow channel 261. The air inlet 221, the connecting hole 241, the aerosol channel 231, the air flow channel 261 and the air outlet 211 are sequentially connected. After the air flow enters the aerosol channel 231 from the air inlet 221 and the connecting hole 241, the aerosol carried can be output through the air flow channel 261 and the air outlet 211.

[0038] In one embodiment, the axis of the air inlet 221 is staggered with the axis of the connecting hole 241. In this way, when the condensate and the atomized matrix drip from the connecting hole 241, they will not directly drip from the air inlet 221 to the outside of the atomizer 2, thereby reducing the occurrence of liquid leakage in the atomizer 2.

[0039] Combination Figure 5 and Figure 6In some embodiments, the electrode mounting seat 22 is provided with a partition 222 facing the atomizing seat 24, the axis of the connecting hole 241 is located on one side of the partition 222, and the axis of the air inlet 221 is located on the other side of the partition 222. On the basis of the staggered arrangement of the connecting hole 241 and the air inlet 221, the connecting hole 241 and the air inlet 221 can be further spaced apart by providing the partition 222.

[0040] Further, the electrode mounting seat 22 includes a second end and a second extension portion extending from the second end toward the atomizer seat 24. The second extension portion is arranged in a ring shape. The partition 222 is arranged in the area surrounded by the second extension portion. The partition 222 can separate the area surrounded by the second extension portion into two relatively independent areas, the connecting hole 241 is arranged corresponding to one of the areas, and the air inlet 221 is arranged corresponding to the other area. In addition, the space surrounded by the partition 222 and the second extension portion can also accommodate part of the leaked liquid to reduce the liquid from directly leaking from the air inlet 221.

[0041] On the basis of the previous embodiment, a storage member (not shown) is provided on one side of the partition 222 facing the axis of the connecting hole 241. In other words, in the space enclosed by the partition 222 and the second extension portion, a storage member is provided in the area corresponding to the connecting hole 241. The storage member can absorb the liquid dripping from the connecting hole 241 and store it. Such a configuration can prevent the liquid in the electrode mounting seat 22 from flowing back to the aerosol channel 231 or leaking from the air inlet 221 when the atomizer 1 is shaken or inverted.

[0042] In some embodiments, the atomizer seat 24 is provided with a pin hole (not shown). The atomizer core 232 has a pin. The pin of the atomizer core 232 can pass through the pin hole to the side of the atomizer seat 24 away from the atomizer core 232. The atomizer seat 24 is also provided with a slot (not shown). The opening direction of the slot faces the electrode mounting seat 22. The slot is used to accommodate the pin and the power supply rod 25. The electrode mounting seat 22 is also provided with an electrode hole 223 (combined with Figure 5 ). The electrode hole 223 corresponds to the slot position. The power supply rod 25 can pass through the electrode hole 223 and then extend into the slot. The pin can extend into the slot. When the power supply rod 25 extends into the slot, the pin can be electrically connected to the power supply rod 25. In the above manner, the electrical connection between the power supply rod 25 and the pin can be achieved by inserting it into the slot, and the electrode mounting seat 22 can increase the stability of the power supply rod 25 when installed in the atomizer 2, which is beneficial to the automation of the assembly of the atomization device 1.

[0043] In some embodiments, the atomizing device 1 further includes an electrode feeding device (not shown). The aforementioned power supply rod 25 can rotate relative to the housing 11 following the atomizer 2. Each atomizer 2 is provided with the aforementioned power supply rod 25. The electrode feeding device is fixedly arranged inside the atomizing device 1. The electrode feeding device corresponds to at least one atomizer 2, so that the atomizer 2 is in an operable state. In the process of the rotating frame 12 driving the atomizer 2 to rotate, the atomizer 2 corresponding to the electrode feeding device can be switched, thereby switching the atomizer 2 in an operable state.

[0044] In some embodiments, in order to make the overall ID design of the atomizer 1 beautiful and coordinated, the designer chooses to set the nozzle to a transparent or translucent structure. In the relevant technical field, the liquid absorbent 26 used to absorb condensed liquid is often set in the nozzle and surrounds the nozzle airway. Since the liquid absorbent 26 will change color (generally yellow) as the condensed liquid accumulates, when the nozzle is transparent, it will seriously affect the aesthetics of the product. In the above implementation, the liquid absorbent is set inside the atomizer 2 and cannot be observed from the transparent nozzle, so it will not affect the aesthetics of the product.

[0045] The above are merely embodiments of the present application and are not intended to limit the patent scope of the present application. Any equivalent structure or equivalent process transformation made using the contents of the present application specification and drawings, or directly or indirectly applied in other related technical fields, are also included in the patent protection scope of the present application.
