[0033] The specific embodiments and modifications of the present utility model will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0034] For the convenience of description, spatial relative terms such as "inside", "outside", "upper", "lower", "front", "back", "left", "right", "top", "bottom", "horizontal", "vertical" etc. are used in this article to define various components and their connection relationships, but this is not intended to be limiting. When the placement of the components changes, these spatial relative relationships can also be reversed or changed without affecting the protection scope of the present invention.

[0035] Figure 1 1 is an overall schematic diagram of an atomizer 100 for an electronic atomization device according to an embodiment of the present invention.

[0036] A heater 1 (such as a heater 100) is provided inside the atomizer 100 for heating the atomizable substance. Figure 2 As shown), the heater 1 is used by a battery device 200 of an electronic atomization device (such as Figure 4 shown) for power supply.

[0037] like Figure 1As shown, the atomizer 100 includes an atomizer interface 2 for connecting to a battery device 200 of an electronic atomization device to power the atomizer 100. The atomizer interface 2 can be arranged at the end of the atomizer 100 or other appropriate positions, preferably at the end opposite to the mouthpiece of the atomizer 100. The atomizer interface 2 includes a plurality of electrodes, such as the first electrode 11, the second electrode 12 and the third electrode 13 shown in the figure, one or more electrodes among the plurality of electrodes, such as the first electrode 11, are electrically connected to the heater 1 as negative electrodes, and the other or remaining electrodes among the plurality of electrodes, such as the second electrode 12 and the third electrode 13, are electrically connected to the heater 1 as positive electrodes. Figure 2 In the example shown, the heater 1 may include two or more heating elements such as heating wires, the first electrode 11 is connected to one end of each heating element as a negative electrode, and the second electrode 12 and the third electrode 13 are connected to the other end of each heating element as positive electrodes.

[0038] The plurality of electrodes may be arranged in parallel with each other, such as the second electrode 12 and the third electrode 13 are arranged side by side and in parallel with the first electrode 11. Alternatively, the plurality of electrodes may also be arranged in the circumferential direction of a circle, i.e., in a circumferential arrangement, or arranged at the vertices of other polygons such as quadrilaterals, pentagons, hexagons, heptagons or octagons. As long as the arrangement positions of these electrodes enable contact with different electrical contacts of the battery device 200 at different orientations of the atomizer 100. The different electrical contacts of the battery device 200 may be electrically connected to one or more control switches (preferably a single control switch) to control the working mode of the heater 1 and thereby change the working mode of the atomizer (to be described later).

[0039] The atomizer interface 2 includes a connection surface 20 for connecting to the battery device 200. The connection surface 20 is provided with an air inlet hole 21. The air inlet hole 21 is communicated with an air flow channel (not shown) in the atomizer 100. The atomizer interface 2 is also provided with first air inlet channels 22 (such as Figure 1 as shown) and the second intake passage 23 (as shown Figure 2 shown).

[0040] like Figure 1 As described above, the first air inlet channel 22 can be formed by the side surface of the atomizer 100 or a recessed portion recessed radially inward from the side surface. A stopper 24 is provided at the adjoining portion of the first air inlet channel 22 (i.e., the upper portion shown in the figure). The stopper 24 is used to contact the housing 3 (such as the housing 3 of the battery device 200) of the battery device 200 when the atomizer 100 is connected to the battery device 200. Figure 4 The inner wall of the housing 3 is used to cover a portion of the vent holes 31 on the housing 3, thereby reducing the air intake.

[0041] like Figure 3As shown, the second air inlet channel 23 is formed by a recessed portion that is recessed radially inward from the side surface of the atomizer 100. When the atomizer 100 is connected to the battery device 200 in an orientation after being horizontally rotated 180 degrees or at other angles, the second air inlet channel 23 coincides with the vent hole 31 on the housing 3 of the battery device 200, so that air enters the electronic atomization device through the vent hole 31, and then enters the air inlet hole 21 through the connection surface 20 to reach the air flow channel in the atomizer 100.

[0042] An identification recess 25 may also be provided at the end of the second air inlet channel 23 to facilitate the assembly of the atomizer interface 2 in the correct orientation. At the same time, the identification recess 25 may be communicated with the second air inlet channel 23 to facilitate the inflow of gas.

[0043] return Figure 1 , multiple electrodes of the atomizer 100 are arranged in the connection surface 20, preferably flush with the connection surface 20 or recessed inwardly relative to the connection surface 20. Multiple electrodes can be arranged around the air inlet 21 in the connection surface 20 to make the structure of the device compact.

[0044] Figure 4 An overall schematic diagram of a battery device 200 for an electronic atomization device according to an embodiment of the present invention.

[0045] like Figure 4 As shown, the battery device 200 includes a housing 3 and a battery device interface 4, and the battery device interface 4 can be located on the longitudinal inner side of the housing 3 to be surrounded by the housing 3. The housing 3 is provided with a vent hole 31 on one side that penetrates the housing 3 to connect the inside and the outside of the housing 3. The vent hole 31 can be a plurality of discrete vent holes 31 ( Figure 4 Two are shown), however, it is conceivable that the vent holes 31 may also be formed as a single elongated hole extending in the longitudinal direction of the housing 3 or a plurality of elongated holes arranged side by side, or formed as a plurality of discrete holes arranged in a matrix. As described above, when the battery device 200 is connected to the atomizer 100, all or at least part of the vent holes 31 may be connected to the first air inlet channel 22 or the second air inlet channel 23 to allow external air to enter the interior of the electronic atomization device.

[0046] Continue to refer Figure 4 The battery device interface 4 includes a plurality of electrical contacts ( Figure 4 Four electrical contacts are shown: a first electrical contact 41, a second electrical contact 42, a third electrical contact 43 and a fourth electrical contact 44). The electrical contacts may advantageously be in the form of elastic pins to increase the reliability of contact with the electrodes. In addition, the electrical contacts may be arranged parallel to each other, such as Figure 4The first electrical contact 41 and the second electrical contact 42 are arranged side by side, the third electrical contact 43 and the fourth electrical contact 44 are arranged side by side, and the first electrical contact 41 and the second electrical contact 42 are parallel to the third electrical contact 43 and the fourth electrical contact 44, so that the first to fourth electrical contacts form a parallelogram arrangement. However, it is conceivable that these contacts can also be arranged in other ways, such as circumferential arrangement, etc. As long as the electrical contacts can selectively make electrical contact with the electrodes on the atomizer 100 when the battery device 200 and the atomizer 100 are connected.

[0047] In addition, if Figure 5 As shown, these electrical contacts are also electrically connected to the control switch 5 provided on the housing 3 of the battery device 200, so that the control switch 5 controls each contact and then controls whether each heating element is electrically connected to the heating circuit and / or the electrical connection mode of each heating element, so as to adjust the working mode of the heater 1, and then adjust the working mode of the atomizer, such as single-shot (i.e., heating element) heating, double-shot heating or multiple-shot heating, etc. The control switch 5 can be formed as a single integrated switch, and the working mode of the heater is controlled by different gears of the single switch. However, it is conceivable that the control switch 5 can also be formed as a plurality of switches electrically connected to each electrical contact separately.

[0048] When the atomizer is 100 Figure 1 The orientation shown (positive) is Figure 4 When the battery device 200 of the shown orientation is connected, the first electrode 11 (e.g., the negative electrode) of the atomizer interface 2 is in electrical contact with the third electrical contact 43 of the battery device interface 4, the second electrode 12 is in electrical contact with the first electrical contact 41, and the third electrode 13 is in electrical contact with the second electrical contact 42. The controller of the electronic atomization device recognizes the negative electrode, thereby controlling the first electrical contact 41 and the second electrical contact 42 to correspond to the polarity of the second electrode 12 and the third electrode 13 of the atomizer interface 2, thereby closing the circuit to power the heater 1. The working mode of the heater 1 can be changed by controlling the first and / or second electrical contacts 42 to be connected to the circuit or whether to be connected to the circuit in series or in parallel by the control switch 5. The control method of the controller and the control method of the switch 5 to control the connection of the heating elements inside the heater 1 are both conventional means and will not be repeated here.

[0049] When the atomizer is 100 Figure 3 The orientation shown (reverse) is Figure 4When the battery device 200 of the shown orientation is connected, the first electrode 11 (e.g., the negative electrode) of the atomizer interface 2 is in electrical contact with the second electrical contact 42 of the battery device interface 4, the second electrode 12 is in electrical contact with the fourth electrical contact 44, and the third electrode 13 is in electrical contact with the third electrical contact 43. The controller of the electronic atomization device recognizes the negative electrode, thereby controlling the fourth electrical contact 44 and the third electrical contact 43 to correspond to the polarity of the second electrode 12 and the third electrode 13 of the atomizer interface 2, thereby closing the circuit to power the heater 1. Similarly, the working mode of the heater 1 can be changed by controlling the third and / or fourth electrical contacts 44 to be connected to the circuit or whether they are connected to the circuit light in series or in parallel by the control switch 5. The control method of the controller and the control method of the switch 5 to control the connection of the heating elements inside the heater 1 are both conventional means and will not be repeated here.

[0050] In addition, the battery device interface 4 includes a connection terminal 6 for connecting to the atomizer interface 2, and a plurality of electrical contacts are arranged on the surface of the connection terminal 6. The outer periphery of the connection terminal 6 can be provided with a positioning flange 61 protruding from the surface of the connection terminal 6 along part or the entire circumference. The positioning flange 61 can be provided with a recessed portion 62 at a position close to the vent hole 31. The recessed portion 62 is connected to the vent hole 31 to facilitate air to enter the interior of the shell 3 of the battery device 200.

[0051] The specific embodiments of the present invention are described in detail above with reference to the accompanying drawings, but the present invention is not limited to the above specific structures, but covers various modifications and equivalent features. Those skilled in the art can make various changes without departing from the scope of protection of the present invention.
