[0035] In one embodiment of the present invention, reference Figure 1-10 , a fragrance machine 100 is provided, comprising a housing 10 and a barrel 20 disposed on the housing 10, an essential oil bottle 30 is disposed in the barrel 20, and an atomizer assembly 50 is disposed on the top of the barrel 20. The atomizer assembly 50 has an inner wall 52 and an outer wall 54, a first circuit board 60 is disposed on the inner wall 52, a group of contacts 62 are disposed on the first circuit board 60, a second circuit board 70 is disposed on the outer wall 54 of the atomizer assembly 50, a group of probes 72 are disposed on the second circuit board 70, the group of probes 72 are in electrical contact with the group of contacts 62 in a one-to-one correspondence, and the second circuit board 70 is electrically connected to a main circuit board 80 through a wiring terminal. In addition, the first circuit board 60 can also be disposed on the outer wall 54 of the atomizer assembly 50, or at the bottom of the atomizer assembly 50; the second circuit board 70 can also be disposed on the outer side of the barrel 20; the main circuit board 80 can be disposed at any position in the housing 10.
[0036] In the above embodiment, when the first circuit board 60 is disposed on the inner wall 52, outer wall 54 or bottom of the atomizer assembly 50, the second circuit board 70 can be disposed on the outer wall 54 of the atomizer assembly 50; when the first circuit board 60 is disposed on the inner wall 52, outer wall 54 or bottom of the atomizer assembly 50, the second circuit board 70 can be disposed on the outer side of the barrel 20. The positions of the first circuit board 60, the second circuit board 70, and the main circuit board 80 can be set according to the needs of those skilled in the art, and will not be repeated here.
[0037] In the above embodiment, the barrel 20 for mounting the essential oil bottle 30 may have any suitable structure, such as the cylindrical structure shown in the accompanying drawings, or other structures, such as a prismatic structure, and may be made of any suitable material, such as plastic material or aluminum alloy material, both of which are light in weight and therefore easy to carry.
[0038] In addition, in the above embodiment, the atomization assembly 50 may include accessories such as an atomization head, an air pump, various connecting tubes, and may also include an external power supply or a built-in battery such as a lithium battery to power the air pump, and may even include a charging interface for charging the built-in battery, such as a relatively conventional USB charging interface, so that the user can charge the built-in battery via a USB cable.
[0039] In addition, the number of a group of contacts 62 provided on the first circuit board 60 is not limited. In the present embodiment, the number of contacts is 4, and the corresponding number of probes is also 4. The group of probes 72 is in electrical contact with the group of contacts 62 in a one-to-one correspondence. With the help of the electrical contact between the probes and the corresponding contacts, the communication connection between the first circuit board 60 and the main circuit board 80 can be achieved, for example, information can be exchanged. In one embodiment, a first group of key information can be stored in one of the circuit boards, such as the first circuit board 60, and a second group of key information can be stored in a main circuit board 80. The two groups of key information are read with the help of an external system, such as a computer, and the two are compared to determine whether the two are consistent. If they are consistent, it means that the fragrance machine as a whole remains original, and the accessories have not been replaced by criminals, such as replacing the original essential oils with inferior essential oils, thereby realizing the anti-counterfeiting function of the product to a certain extent.
[0040] Specifically, when the essential oil in the essential oil bottle 30 integrated with the atomizer assembly 50 is used up, when the user replaces the essential oil bottle 30, the first circuit board 60 (such as a specific encryption chip) provided on the atomizer assembly 50 is connected to the second circuit board 70 (adapter board) through the set of probes 72, and the second circuit board 70 is electrically connected to the main circuit board 80 through the wiring terminal, so that the essential oil bottle can be tested for anti-counterfeiting. If the detection determines that the current essential oil bottle is an original essential oil bottle, the main circuit board 80 starts the fragrance machine; if the detection finds that the current essential oil bottle is not an original essential oil bottle, the main circuit board 80 drives the fragrance machine to stop working. The first circuit board 60 is provided with parameters such as the time and number of times the essential oil bottle 30 is used for the user's reference.
[0041] In one embodiment, the inner wall 52 or the bottom (refer to Fig.10 ), the set of contacts 62 are exposed from the opening, and the set of probes 72 are inserted into the opening to electrically contact the set of contacts 62. By providing the above-mentioned opening, the physical distance between the two circuit boards can be greatly shortened, thereby ensuring the compact structure of the aromatherapy machine product. In addition, the setting of the opening is conducive to protecting the probe and preventing the probe from being broken due to external collision of the product.
[0042] In another embodiment, the inner wall 52 or the bottom (refer to Fig.10 ) is provided with an opening, and a window 26 is provided on the side wall of the cylinder 20, the group of contacts 62 are exposed from the opening and the window 26, and the group of probes 72 are sequentially extended into the opening and the window 26 to electrically contact with the group of contacts 62 respectively.
[0043] The second circuit board 70 can be fixed to the outer wall 54 in various ways. In one embodiment, the second circuit board 70 is fixed to the outer wall 54 by screws. In another embodiment, the second circuit board 70 is fixed to the outer wall 54 by adhesive. In addition to being fixed to the outer wall 54, alternatively, the second circuit board 70 can also be fixed to the outer side of the cylinder 20 by screws or adhesives.
[0044] Preferably, in order to ensure that the entire aroma diffuser 100 can be used in any harsh environment, such as winter in the north, the aroma diffuser can be modified. This is because the temperature is low in winter, the activity of the essential oil deteriorates, the viscosity becomes thicker, and the fluidity is very poor, which can easily cause the essential oil to be unable to flow smoothly through the essential oil pipette and flow into the atomization component to be atomized, thereby greatly reducing the working stability of the aroma diffuser. For this reason, a heating component 40 is set on the essential oil bottle 30 to heat the essential oil in the essential oil bottle 30.
[0045] For example, in a preferred embodiment, the heating assembly 40 includes a heating sleeve 42 sleeved on the essential oil bottle 30 and a heating layer 44 wrapped around the outside of the heating sleeve 42. When the heating layer 44 is powered on and heated, the essential oil bottle 30 wrapped by the heating layer 44 is also heated synchronously, so that the essential oil in the essential oil bottle 30 can maintain a certain temperature, thereby having a certain activity and fluidity, and finally can smoothly pass through the pipette and flow into the atomization assembly to be atomized. Preferably, the heating layer 44 can be a heating layer formed by an electric heating wire, or a heating layer 44 formed by a PET heating element, for example, and the present invention is not limited to this.
[0046] In order to effectively heat the essential oil bottle 30, it is preferred that the heating sleeve 42 is disposed on the periphery of the bottom area of the essential oil bottle 30. This is because, under the action of gravity, the essential oil is concentrated at the bottom of the essential oil bottle. Therefore, by arranging the heating sleeve 42 on the periphery of the bottom of the essential oil bottle 30, the essential oil bottle 30 and the essential oil therein can be quickly heated from the side and bottom at the same time, thereby improving the heating efficiency and speed.
[0047] In addition, a temperature control circuit board 24 may be provided in the barrel 20 or the shell 10, and the temperature control circuit board 24 is electrically connected to the heating layer 44. With such a design, the real-time temperature of the essential oil in the essential oil bottle 30 and the ambient temperature of the surrounding environment can be detected by the temperature control circuit board 24, and the two can be compared to determine whether it is necessary to continue heating the essential oil bottle 30 and how long the heating is required. For example, a bracket (not shown) may be provided in the shell 10, and then the heating sleeve 42 may be fixed to the bracket, which may also obtain a similar technical effect of fixing the heating sleeve. Of course, the fixing method of the heating sleeve is not limited to the above-mentioned embodiment, but other suitable fixing methods may be adopted, which are all within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0048] Preferably, an annular positioning step 22 is formed inside the bottom of the barrel 20, and the heating sleeve 42 abuts against the annular positioning step 22. The annular positioning step is used to limit the axial position of the heating sleeve 42, thereby preventing the heating sleeve 42 from axially deviating from the bottom of the essential oil bottle 30 due to external vibration.
[0049] Fig.10 Another embodiment of the aroma diffuser 100 of the present invention is shown. In this embodiment, the first circuit board 60' is disposed on the bottom of the atomizing assembly 50', and the corresponding second circuit board 70' is disposed on the outside of the cylinder 20'. Of course, the second circuit board 70' can also be disposed on the outer wall of the atomizing assembly 50'. The present invention does not limit this.
[0050] In the aroma diffuser provided by the utility model, since the atomizing component has an inner wall and an outer wall, a first circuit board is arranged on the inner wall, a group of contacts are arranged on the first circuit board, a second circuit board is arranged on the outer wall, a group of probes are arranged on the second circuit board, and the group of probes are in electrical contact with the group of contacts in a one-to-one correspondence. Through the electrical and communication connection between the above-mentioned two circuit boards, the exchange of information such as authentication information between the two circuit boards is realized, that is, the pairing operation between the two circuit boards is realized. For example, by comparing the authentication information (such as keys) stored in each of the two circuit boards, it is determined whether the key information of the two is consistent, and then it can be determined whether the essential oil bottle (and the essential oil therein) provided on the aroma diffuser is the original essential oil, and whether it has been replaced by an inferior essential oil product by criminals.
[0051] Those skilled in the art will appreciate that the various operations, methods, steps, measures, and schemes in the processes discussed in this application may be alternated, altered, combined, or deleted. Further, other steps, measures, and schemes in the various operations, methods, and processes discussed in this application may also be alternated, altered, rearranged, decomposed, combined, or deleted. Further, the steps, measures, and schemes in the prior art that are similar to those disclosed in this application may also be alternated, altered, rearranged, decomposed, combined, or deleted.
[0052] The above description is only a partial implementation method of the present application. It should be pointed out that for ordinary technicians in this technical field, several improvements and modifications can be made without departing from the principles of the present application. These improvements and modifications should also be regarded as the scope of protection of the present application.
