DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0043] The present invention is further described in detail below by specific embodiments in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Wherein similar elements in different embodiments adopt associated similar element numbers. In the following embodiments, many detailed descriptions are intended to enable the present application to be better understood. However, those skilled in the art can easily recognize that some of the features can be omitted in different situations, or can be replaced by other elements, materials, and methods. In some cases, some operations related to the present application are not shown or described in the specification, in order to avoid the core part of the present application being overwhelmed by too much description, and for those skilled in the art, it is not necessary to describe these related operations in detail, and they can fully understand the related operations based on the description in the specification and the general technical knowledge in the art.

[0044] In addition, the features, operations or characteristics described in the specification can be combined in any appropriate manner to form various implementations. At the same time, the steps or actions in the method description can also be interchanged or adjusted in a manner that is obvious to those skilled in the art. Therefore, the various sequences in the specification and the drawings are only for the purpose of clearly describing a certain embodiment and are not meant to be a required sequence, unless otherwise specified that a certain sequence must be followed.

[0045] The serial numbers of the components in this document, such as "first", "second", etc., are only used to distinguish the objects described and do not have any order or technical meaning. The "connection" and "coupling" mentioned in this application, unless otherwise specified, include direct and indirect connections (couplings).

[0046] Existing electric heating atomization devices, such as electronic cigarettes, electric aromatherapy or electric mosquito coils, heat the substance to be atomized (such as smoke oil, tobacco, aromatherapy liquid, mosquito coil liquid, etc.) through an atomizer (or heating component). Conventional atomizers are single heating elements such as heating plates or heating nets. The heating temperature zone is generally fixed, or the processing power is also fixed. This results in a single effect of generating smoke by the electric heating atomization device, which cannot meet the diverse needs of users.

[0047] For example, taking e-cigarettes as an example, the user's demand for smoking is not fixed, which requires the atomizer to be able to achieve different heating temperature zones or different heating powers to achieve different smoke production effects.

[0048] It should be noted that the embodiments of the present application take the atomization device as an electronic cigarette as an example for explanation, and the atomizer and atomization device provided by the present application are not limited to be applied only in the field of electronic cigarettes.

[0049] like Figures 1 to 4As shown, an embodiment of the present application provides an atomizer 100 and an atomizing device. The atomizer 100 can be applied to the atomizing device. The atomizing device controls the heating of the atomizer 100 by powering on the atomizer 100. The atomizer 100 is configured to heat a substance to be atomized to generate smoke.

[0050] like Figure 1 As shown, the embodiment of the present application provides an atomizer 100, which may include a first heating element 1, a second heating element 2 and a third heating element 3; and may also include a first pin 10, a second pin 20 and a third pin 30.

[0051] The first heating element 1 and the third heating element 3 are connected in parallel between the first pin 10 and the third pin 30 .

[0052] The first heating element 1 and the second heating element 2 are connected in series between the second pin 20 and the third pin 30 .

[0053] The atomizer 100 is configured to heat the substance to be atomized. When the atomizer 100 is powered on for heating, at least two of the first pin 10, the second pin 20 and the third pin 30 are powered on, and at least one of the first heating element 1, the second heating element 2 and the third heating element 3 is turned on.

[0054] Among them, when the first pin 10 and the second pin 20 are energized, the second heating element 2 is turned on; when the first pin 10 and the third pin 30 are energized, the first heating element 1 and the third heating element 3 are turned on; when the first pin 10 is connected to the first voltage end, the second pin 20 and the third pin 30 are connected to the second voltage end, the first heating element 1, the second heating element 2 and the third heating element 3 are turned on, wherein the voltage of the first voltage end is different from that of the second voltage end, at this time, the first heating element 1 and the third heating element 3 are turned on in parallel, and the second heating element 2 is turned on alone; when the second pin 20 and the third pin 30 are turned on, the first heating element 1, the second heating element 2 and the third heating element 3 are turned on, at this time, the first heating element 1 and the third heating element 3 are connected in parallel and then in series with the second heating element 2.

[0055] The atomizer 100 provided in the present application has three heating elements, and the three heating elements are connected in series and in parallel through three pins. By selecting different combinations of pins for powering on, the heating elements in the atomizer 100 are turned on in different ways, thereby achieving changes in the heating temperature zone and the heating power, so that the atomization device can have different smoke generation effects.

[0056] In some embodiments, Figure 2 and Figure 3 The first heating element 1 and the second heating element 2 are arranged along a first preset direction (eg Figure 2The first heating element 1 and the third heating element 3 are arranged along the second preset direction (such as Figure 2 The first preset direction and the second preset direction are arranged at a preset angle, for example, the first preset direction is perpendicular to the second preset direction. The second preset direction may correspond to the direction of the airflow channel of the atomization device, or the installation direction of the substance to be atomized, such as the axial direction of the cigarette. This is because the atomizer 100 can be rolled up with the second preset direction as the axial direction in actual use to form a cylindrical circumferential structure. At this time, the third heating element 3 can be configured to heat the upper half, and the first heating element 1 and the second heating element 2 can be configured to heat the lower half.

[0057] For example, Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the first heating element 1 and the second heating element 2 can be arranged side by side in the left-right direction, and the third heating element 3 can be arranged above or below the first heating element 1 and the second heating element 2 .

[0058] In some embodiments, Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the first pin 10 has a first end 11 and a second end 12 opposite to each other along a second preset direction; the second pin 20 has a third end 21 and a fourth end 22 opposite to each other along the second preset direction; the third pin 30 has a fifth end 31 and a sixth end 32 opposite to each other along the second preset direction; the first end 11, the third end 21 and the fifth end 31 are located on the same side; the second end 12, the fourth end 22 and the sixth end 32 are located on the same side.

[0059] Among them, the first end 11, the third end 21 and the fifth end 31 can be configured to connect to external leads or power supply ends; or, the second end 12, the fourth end 22 and the sixth end 32 can be configured to connect to external leads or power supply ends.

[0060] For example, the atomization device may include an atomizer 100 and a power supply assembly, the power supply assembly is configured to supply power to the atomizer 100, the power supply assembly may be provided with a plurality of power supply terminals, after the atomizer 100 is installed to a preset installation position of the power supply assembly, the first terminal 11, the third terminal 21 and the fifth terminal 31 or the second terminal 12, the fourth terminal 22 and the sixth terminal 32 may be electrically connected to the corresponding power supply terminals. Alternatively, the electrical connection may be performed by using an external lead wire.

[0061] For example, the power supply component may be provided with a power module and a control module. The control module may control the atomizer 100 by energizing the pins of the power module and the atomizer 100 .

[0062] In some atomization devices, the atomizer 100 is a consumable item, and a plurality of replaceable atomizers 100 may be provided for users to use. The atomizer 100 is detachably mounted on a power supply component, and the power supply component may be provided with corresponding contacts (power supply ends). After the atomizer 100 is installed in place, the pins of the atomizer 100 contact the contacts of the power supply component, or the pins of the atomizer 100 contact the contacts of the power supply component through leads or contacts.

[0063] In some embodiments, the first heating element 1 may be a mesh heating wire, a bent heating wire or a heating sheet; and / or, the second heating element 2 may be a mesh heating wire, a bent heating wire or a heating sheet; and / or, the third heating element 3 may be a mesh heating wire, a bent heating wire or a heating sheet.

[0064] like Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the three heating elements can all be mesh heating wires. For example, when heating a liquid atomized substance, the mesh heating wire can fully contact the liquid to transfer heat and achieve a good smoke effect. The mesh heating wire can contact the pins at multiple points to avoid the problem of short circuit.

[0065] For another example, a bent heating wire, such as a bow-shaped, spiral or wavy shape, is also a commonly used structure.

[0066] In some embodiments, Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the third width of the third heating element 3 along the first preset direction is greater than the first width of the first heating element 1 along the first preset direction; and / or, the third width of the third heating element 3 along the first preset direction is greater than the second width of the second heating element 2 along the first preset direction.

[0067] In the above embodiment, the first heating element 1, the second heating element 2 and the third heating element 3 have the same height along the second preset direction. In the embodiment of the present application, the third heating element 3 is responsible for heating the upper half or the lower half, and the area it needs to cover can be the sum of the areas of the first heating element 1 and the second heating element 2, forming a more symmetrical structure, which is better controlled in terms of temperature control.

[0068] In some embodiments, Figure 2The first width of the first heating element 1 along the first preset direction is the same as the second width of the second heating element 2 along the first preset direction; and / or, the resistance of the first heating element 1 is the same as the resistance of the second heating element 2; and / or, the resistance of the third heating element 3 is the sum of the resistances of the first heating element 1 and the second heating element 2. When the first heating element is the same as the second heating element, and the third heating element is the sum of the resistances of the first heating element and the second heating element, R3=2R1, R2=R1, R1 is the resistance of the first heating element 1, R2 is the resistance of the second heating element 2, and R3 is the resistance of the third heating element 3. The overall resistance distribution of the atomizer 100 is uniform and better controllable, which is described in detail below.

[0069] For example, when the voltage provided by the atomizing device remains unchanged, assuming that there is only one first heating element 1, the power is P0 = U 2 / R1.

[0070] The atomizer 100 provided in the embodiment of the present application may have a variety of conductive modes, and the atomizer 100 has a variety of heating gears.

[0071] When the first pin 10 and the second pin 20 are energized, the second heating element 2 is turned on, and the power is P1 = U 2 / R2.

[0072] When the first pin 10 and the third pin 30 are energized, the first heating element 1 and the third heating element 3 are connected, and the power is P2 = U 2 / (R1 / / R3)=1.5P0.

[0073] When the first pin 10 is connected to the first voltage end, the second pin 20 and the third pin 30 are connected to the second voltage end, the first heating element 1, the second heating element 2 and the third heating element 3 are turned on, and the voltage difference between the first voltage end and the second voltage end is U. At this time, the first heating element 1 and the third heating element 3 are turned on in parallel, and the second heating element 2 is turned on alone, and the power is P3=P1+P2=2.5P0.

[0074] When the second pin 20 and the third pin 30 are connected, the first heating element 1, the second heating element 2 and the third heating element 3 are connected, the first heating element 1 and the third heating element 3 are connected in parallel and then connected in series with the second heating element 2, and the power is P4=U 2 / (R1 / / R3+R2)=0.6P0.

[0075] It can be seen that compared with only one first heating element 1, by adding the second heating element 2 and the third heating element 3, a variety of heating power levels can be achieved through a combination of parallel and series connection, and the heating areas are also different, thereby achieving different heating effects.

[0076] like Figure 4As shown, the embodiment of the present application further provides an atomization device, which may include the atomizer 100 described in the above embodiment. The atomization device provided by the present application can achieve various heating effects through the atomizer 100 to improve the effect of the smoke.

[0077] In some embodiments, Figure 4 As shown, the atomization device may further include a touch control module 300, a power module 200, and a control module 400. For example, the touch control module 300, the power module 200, and the control module 400 may be integrated into a power supply component, and the power supply component is used to supply power to the atomizer 100. The atomizer 100 and the power supply component may be fixedly connected or detachably connected.

[0078] The power module 200 is configured to supply power to the atomizing device; such as a lithium battery or a dry cell.

[0079] The touch module 300 is configured to generate a first control signal, a second control signal, a third control signal or a fourth control signal under the triggering of the user; the touch module 300 can be a touch screen or a key. The user can select the required heating gear through the touch module 300, thereby generating a corresponding control signal.

[0080] The control module 400 is configured as follows: when triggered by a first control signal, the first pin 10 and the second pin 20 are energized to turn on the second heating element 2; when triggered by a second control signal, the first pin 10 and the third pin 30 are energized to turn on the first heating element 1 and the third heating element 3; when triggered by a third control signal, the first pin 10 is connected to the first voltage terminal, the second pin 20 and the third pin 30 are connected to the second voltage terminal, and the first heating element 1, the second heating element 2 and the third heating element 3 are turned on; when triggered by a fourth control signal, the second pin 20 and the third pin 30 are turned on to turn on the first heating element 1, the second heating element 2 and the third heating element 3.

[0081] For example, the control module 400 may be implemented by one or more processing devices, such as MCU, FPGA, etc. Of course, the control module 400 may also use multiple switch tubes (such as MOS tubes) to form a gating circuit, and the gating circuit may connect the power module 200 with the atomizer 100. Different control signals may control the corresponding switch tubes in the gating circuit to be turned on, so that the corresponding pin combination of the atomizer 100 obtains the power supply module 200 or the control module 400. Since the atomizer 100 of the present application is provided with three leads, the gating situation is not complicated and will not be described in detail here.

[0082] It should be noted that the above description is only to illustrate some functional requirements of the present application for the control module 400, and does not limit the specific implementation method. Any device or circuit with a gating function can be used.

[0083] The heating effects corresponding to the conduction conditions of the above three heating elements have been described in detail in the above embodiment when describing the atomizer 100. The atomization device can have the same technical effects, which will not be repeated here.
