For ordinary technicians in this field, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present invention can be understood according to specific circumstances.

[0031] The utility model is further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and preferred embodiments.

[0032] like Figures 1 to 6 As shown, the present embodiment discloses an atomization device 10 which is convenient for detecting the amount of liquid, comprising: a housing 11; an atomization bin 12 for storing atomized liquid; a circuit board 13, which is used for realizing the electronic functions of the atomization device 10 and is arranged in the housing 11; a battery 14, which is used for providing electric energy to the atomization device 10 and is connected with the circuit board 13; wherein, an atomization core (not shown in the figure) is provided in the atomization bin 12, a nozzle 121 which is matched with the atomization core is provided at one end of the atomization bin 12, an observation position for observing the atomized liquid is provided on the housing 11, the atomization bin 12 is mounted on the housing 11, the circuit board 13 is connected with the atomization core, a light source 15 for generating light is provided on the circuit board 13, and at least one light-transmitting position 16 is provided on the atomization bin 12, and the light generated by the light source 15 is incident into the atomization bin 12 through the light-transmitting position 16.

[0033] By arranging a light source 15 in the atomization bin 12 of the atomization device 10, the light source 15 generates a designed input light, and the light path design of the light-transmitting position 16 of the sealing device and the light source 15 is combined, including the control of the light path, color and intensity, etc., and utilizing the refraction, reflection, diffuse reflection, etc. of the light, it provides assistance for the user to visually observe the liquid amount in the atomization bin 12 through the observation position 111, thereby improving the efficiency of optical observation of the liquid amount in the atomization bin 12. The built-in light source 15 realizes light propagation in the atomization bin 12 through the light-transmitting position 16. The user observes the liquid level through the light transmitted from the atomization bin 12, and can replenish the atomized liquid in time according to the observation results, thereby effectively ensuring the working efficiency of the atomization device 10.

[0034] Specifically, the observation position can be a hollowed-out observation position opening on the shell, or it can be a recess for observation provided on the shell to avoid the observable position of the leaked part of the atomization bin; of course, if the area of ​​the atomization bin covered by the shell is relatively small, the user can observe the liquid level through the uncovered area, and a special observation position may not be provided; if the area of ​​the atomization bin covered by the shell is relatively large, it is difficult for the user to observe the liquid level, and a special observation structure, such as an observation position, is required; the observation position is only one of the usage scenarios, and we should not limit the application of the technology in our statement.

[0035] Among them, after the atomizing device 10 is assembled, Figure 1 As shown, when the atomizing device 10 is working, the light generated by the light source 15 enters the atomizing bin 12 through the light-transmitting position 16 of the atomizing bin 12, and is transmitted in the atomizing bin 12 through refraction, reflection, diffuse reflection, etc., and then emitted from the exposed part or observation position of the atomizing bin 12, which can effectively enhance the display of the gas-liquid interface, so that the liquid amount in the atomizing bin 12 can be observed very clearly and accurately through the exposed part or observation position of the atomizing bin 12, so that the user has a better liquid amount observation experience; Figure 1 and 2 Although it is shown that the user can observe the liquid level in the atomization chamber 12 through the observation position, the observation position is only one of the implementation cases. If the exposed part of the atomization chamber 12 is sufficient to observe the liquid level, the observation position 111 may not be needed.

[0036] Among them, the light source 15 includes at least one lamp bead 151, which can be an LED lamp bead or other forms of lamp bead that can emit light. The number of lamp beads 151 can be set according to actual usage requirements, and the color and intensity of the lamp bead 151 can be optimized according to the characteristics of the atomization bin 12 and the atomized liquid (such as color, transmittance, reflectivity, refractive index, roughness, etc.) to enhance observability; the atomization bin 12 includes a side panel 123 and a bottom panel 122, and a light-transmitting position 16 is arranged on the side panel 123 and / or the bottom panel 122. The lamp bead 151 is arranged corresponding to the light-transmitting position 16, and the lamp bead 151 and its incident light path are not limited to a fixed position, nor are they limited to only one light source 15 or one light path; the position of the light-transmitting position 16 can be set at any position on the side panel 123 and / or the bottom panel 122, that is, the incident light path can be incident on the atomization bin 12 in a single-path or multi-path manner from any feasible direction such as the bottom and the side.

[0037] Among them, a color filter layer (not shown in the figure) is provided on the light-transmitting position 16, and the color filter layer is used to filter the color of the light generated by the lamp bead 151. The color filter layer can be set according to actual usage requirements. The light of the lamp bead 151 is filtered by the color filter layer of the light-transmitting position 16 before it is incident on the atomized liquid in the atomization bin 12, which can better enhance the display of the gas-liquid interface, and the liquid amount in the atomization bin 12 can be observed through the exposed part of the atomization bin 12 or the observation position; of course, if the color of the light source is appropriate, the color filter layer may not be set.

[0038] Among them, the atomization device 10 includes an atomization channel 17, one end of the atomization channel 17 is connected to the suction nozzle 121, and the other end of the atomization channel 17 extends through the atomization bin 12 and is arranged in cooperation with the atomization core. The atomization channel 17 is arranged to pass through the inside of the atomization bin 12, which can not only effectively reduce the overall volume of the atomization device 10, making the atomization device 10 more portable, but also effectively simplify the appearance design of the atomization device 10, making the atomization device 10 more concise and beautiful as a whole. The atomized smoke generated by the atomization core enters the suction nozzle 121 through the atomization channel 17.

[0039] Among them, the outer surface of the atomization channel 17 is provided with a coating 171 for light reflection and / or diffuse reflection. The coating 171 forms a reflecting surface for light on the outer surface of the atomization channel 17. It can be a simple reflecting layer, such as a smooth surface; it can also be a diffuse reflecting layer, such as a rough surface; it can also be a composite layer, such as a transparent / semi-permeable layer, partially / wholly using a smooth / rough surface, or with color, so that the light generated by the light source 15 is refracted, reflected, diffusely reflected, etc. in the liquid, gas, the inner wall of the atomization bin 12, the reflecting surface, etc. or on the interface. The built-in light source 15 realizes light propagation in the atomization bin 12 through the light-transmitting position 16. The user observes the liquid level through the light transmitted from the atomization bin 12 to enhance the display of the gas-liquid interface and provide assistance for visual observation of the liquid volume.

[0040] Among them, the shell 11 includes a middle shell 112 and a bottom cover 113. A partition plate 116 is provided in the middle shell 112. The partition plate 116 is used to isolate the atomization chamber 12 and the battery 14, which can effectively reduce the interference of the battery 14 on the liquid and the atomization core in the atomization chamber 12, as well as the influence of the liquid, gas, and gas-liquid mixture in the atomization work on the battery, so as to better ensure the working efficiency of the atomization device 10; the bottom cover 113 can be detachably installed on the middle shell 112, which is convenient for the assembly and disassembly of the various components of the atomization device 10.

[0041] Among them, an assembly port 114 and a limiting plate 115 are provided on the middle shell 112. The assembly port 114 is used for the detachable installation of the atomization bin 12, and the limiting plate 115 is used to limit the installation position of the atomization bin 12. The height of the limiting plate 115 from the assembly port 114 is less than the height of the atomization bin 12, so that the liquid level of the atomized liquid can also be observed through the exposed part of the atomization bin 12.

[0042] like Figure 3 and 4 As shown, it is shown that the bottom of the atomization bin 12 is partially light-transmissive, and the light enters the atomization bin 12 from the light guide 161 according to the designed light path. The light-transmissive position 16 of this embodiment includes a light guide 161, and the light path in the atomization bin 12 is designed and optimized by using the light guide 161. The shape of the light guide 161 can be cylindrical or other shapes that can guide the light path; one end of the light guide 161 is fixedly arranged on the bottom plate 122 and / or the side plate 123, and the other end of the light guide 161 is extended in the atomization bin 12, and the lamp bead 151 is arranged corresponding to the incident port of the light guide 161. The light generated by the lamp bead 151 passes through the partially transparent atomization bin. The bottom of the atomization chamber 12 enters the atomization chamber 12, that is, through the incident port of the light guide 161, and propagates along the light path designed by the light guide 161; the light path is refracted, reflected, and diffusely reflected inside or on the interface of the liquid, gas, inner wall of the atomization chamber 12, reflective surface, etc.; according to the different inner walls of the atomization chamber 12, reflective surfaces and colors of the atomized liquid, the lamp beads 151 and the light guide 161 can select matching light intensity and wavelength to enhance the display of the gas-liquid interface, and can replenish the atomized liquid in time to avoid the atomization device 10 operating under insufficient liquid supply, which may reduce working efficiency or even equipment failure.

[0043] Among them, in some usage scenarios, the function of the light guide 161 can be integrated into other components and not appear as an obviously independent light guide 161. For example, other components can also achieve optical path design and color filtering through structural and color adjustments. Making some simple deductions or replacements should all be considered to fall within the scope of protection of this embodiment.

[0044] like Figure 5As shown, the light-transmitting position 16 of the present embodiment includes a light-transmitting window 162, and the size and shape of the light-transmitting window 162 can be designed according to actual application requirements; the light-transmitting window 162 is arranged on the bottom plate 122 and / or the side plate 123 corresponding to the position of the lamp bead 151, and the light generated by the lamp bead 151 is incident into the atomization bin 12 through the light-transmitting window 162. By providing a local light transmission of the light-transmitting window 162 on the bottom plate 122 and / or the side plate 123 of the atomization bin 12, the light guide 161 in the above-mentioned embodiment is not adopted, so that the light-transmitting window 162 can be arranged at the corresponding position as needed, and the propagation forms of light such as refraction, reflection, and diffuse reflection are utilized to provide assistance for visual observation of the liquid volume; in application, the light-transmitting window 162 can also be made of light-transmitting material, and light-transmitting materials of different materials and colors can appropriately filter the light to enhance the display of the gas-liquid interface.

[0045] like Figure 6 As shown, the bottom plate 122 and / or the side plate 123 of the present embodiment are made of a light-transmitting material as a whole, and the bottom plate 122 and / or the side plate 123 as a whole form a light-transmitting position 16. By realizing a larger area or even full light transmission on the bottom plate 122 and / or the side plate 123 of the atomization bin 12, the light guide 161 in the above-mentioned embodiment is not adopted, and the propagation forms of light such as refraction, reflection, and diffuse reflection are used to provide assistance for visual observation of the liquid amount. In application, light-transmitting materials of different materials and colors can appropriately filter the light to enhance the display of the gas-liquid interface and improve the efficiency of optical observation of the liquid amount in the atomization bin 12.

[0046] in, Figures 4 to 6 Although the display light is incident from the bottom of the atomization bin 12, this is not a necessary condition for the application of this technology; when this technology is applied, the light from the light source can be incident through any optional transparent interface of the atomization bin 12; for example, the light from the light source can be incident through the transparent part on the side of the atomization bin 12.

[0047] The above contents are further detailed descriptions of the present invention in combination with specific preferred implementations, and the specific implementation of the present invention cannot be considered to be limited to these descriptions. For ordinary technicians in the technical field to which the present invention belongs, several simple deductions or substitutions can be made without departing from the concept of the present invention, which should be regarded as falling within the protection scope of the present invention.
