[0002] An electronic cigarette (also called an "electronic cigarette") or a smoking device is an electronic delivery system for generating an aerosol from an atomized substrate for a user to inhale. The atomized substrate can be a liquid (e.g., a smoke liquid, etc.) or a solid or gel (e.g., a smoke paste), etc.

[0003] Generally, a conventional electronic cigarette mainly includes a cartridge storing an atomized matrix and a power supply device. The cartridge has a heating or evaporation device, such as an atomizer including an atomizer core. The power supply device supplies power to the atomizer core to convert the atomized matrix in the cartridge into an aerosol for the user to inhale. In many electronic cigarettes, the user's inhalation activates the atomizer core, vaporizing the liquid atomized matrix in the cartridge, and then the user inhales the generated aerosol through the mouthpiece.

[0004] The atomizer core is a key component in electronic cigarettes, which directly affects the aerosol produced by heating and atomization, thus affecting the user experience. The heating plate in the existing atomizer core has problems such as uneven heating and easy to burn the core, so it is necessary to provide a heating plate and atomizer core with stable taste, uniform oil supply and not easy to burn.

[0027] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present disclosure to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present disclosure. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present disclosure, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present disclosure, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present disclosure.

[0028] It should be noted that all directional indications in the embodiments of the present disclosure (such as up, down, left, right, front, back, etc.) are only used to explain the relative position relationship, movement status, etc. between the components under a certain specific posture (as shown in the accompanying drawings). If the specific posture changes, the directional indication will also change accordingly.

[0029] In the present disclosure, unless otherwise clearly specified and limited, the terms "connected", "fixed", etc. should be understood in a broad sense, for example, it can be directly connected or indirectly connected through an intermediate medium, it can be the internal connection of two elements or the interaction relationship between two elements, unless otherwise clearly defined. For ordinary technicians in this field, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present disclosure can be understood according to specific circumstances.

[0030] In this article, "communication" refers to fluid communication, that is, fluid (including liquid and / or gas) can flow from one component to another component. In addition, in this article, communication between two components can refer to direct communication between the two components, for example, at least partial alignment between two holes, or communication through an intermediate medium.

[0031] In the present disclosure, unless otherwise stated, all numbers used in the specification and claims to represent component parameters, technical effects, etc. should be understood as being modified by the term "approximately" or "roughly" in any case. Therefore, unless otherwise indicated, the numerical parameters listed in the following specification and the attached claims are approximate values. For those skilled in the art, it can vary according to the desired properties and effects sought to be obtained through the present disclosure, and each numerical parameter should be interpreted according to the number of significant digits and conventional rounding methods or in a manner understood by those skilled in the art.

[0032] In the present disclosure, the terms used in the description of various examples are only for the purpose of describing specific examples and are not intended to be limiting. Unless the context clearly indicates otherwise, if the number of elements is not specifically limited, the element can be one or more. In addition, the term "and / or" used in the present disclosure covers any one of the listed items and all possible combinations.

[0033] "Atomized substrate" refers to a mixture or auxiliary substance that can be completely or partially atomized into an aerosol by an electronic device or similar device. The atomized substrate can be a liquid medium such as e-cigarette liquid, medical drugs, skin care lotion, etc. By atomizing these media, an aerosol that can be inhaled or absorbed can be delivered to the user.

[0034] "Aerosol" refers to a colloidal dispersion system formed by small solid or liquid particles dispersed and suspended in a gas medium.

[0035] "Atomizer" refers to a device that forms aerosol from stored atomizable substrate, i.e., atomized substrate, by heating or ultrasound. The atomizer core is one of the main components of the atomizer.

[0036] In the related art, the heating element in the atomizer core mainly has the following two structures: one is a cotton heating core, and the other is a ceramic heating core. The cotton heating core usually wraps the heating wire around the oil-conducting cotton, and the cotton heating core is powered by a battery to heat the heating wire. After the heating wire reaches a certain temperature, the atomization matrix adsorbed on the oil-conducting cotton begins to volatilize. In the cotton heating core, the oil-conducting cotton is in direct contact with the heating wire, and the atomization matrix around the heating wire will be quickly evaporated by the heating wire, causing dry burning. After the atomization matrix evaporates, the oil-conducting cotton is easily burnt by the heating wire, affecting the taste of the smoke. In addition, compared with the cotton core, the ceramic heating core sinters the ceramic around the heating wire in the form of sintering. Since the ceramic in the ceramic heating core is sintered, even if the ceramic has the characteristics of high temperature resistance, the properties of the ceramic itself will still cause the internal pores sintered into the ceramic to have irregular porosity distribution characteristics, resulting in unstable taste.

[0037] In view of this, the present disclosure provides a heating plate, which includes an atomized matrix absorption matrix and a heating body. By providing a plurality of pores for adsorbing the atomized matrix in the atomized matrix absorption matrix, and the plurality of pores are arranged according to preset rules, the atomized matrix can be directly heated by passing through the plurality of pores in the atomized matrix absorption matrix to the heating body, thereby making the heating contact area larger and the heating more uniform, and improving the uniformity and rate of providing the atomized matrix through the heating plate, so that the formed aerosol is softer and more consistent, and is not prone to problems such as core sticking.

[0038] The heating plate disclosed in the present invention can achieve the advantages of both the taste restoration of the cotton core and the high stability of the ceramic core, but at the same time overcome the problems of poor consistency of the ceramic atomization core and poor durability of the cotton core in the prior art. In addition, compared with the cotton heating core (which requires manual assembly), the heating plate disclosed in the present invention can be automated through the setting of a jig, thereby improving production efficiency. Moreover, by directly setting a plurality of pores for oil conduction in the base supporting the heating body, the components of the heating plate can be reduced and the thickness of the heating plate can be reduced.

[0039] The atomizer core according to the present disclosure can be used in an electronic cigarette. In the scope of the present disclosure, "electronic cigarette" refers to a system that generates an aerosol by atomizing a matrix, such as smoke liquid (specifically, smoke oil, etc.) for people to inhale, suck, chew or nasal inhalation, etc. In some examples, the electronic cigarette may include a storage chamber for storing the atomizer matrix and an atomizer core for adsorbing and atomizing the atomizer matrix to form an aerosol. Among them, the atomizer matrix can be in liquid form (for example, smoke liquid) or solid or gel form (for example, smoke paste), etc. It should be understood here that the atomizer core of the present disclosure can also be used in other equipment that requires atomization of the atomizer matrix, such as medical atomizers, skin care instruments, aromatherapy devices, etc.

[0040] Refer to the following Figures 1 to 9 The heating sheet and the atomizing core of the present disclosure are described in detail.

[0041] Figure 1 is a perspective view showing a heating sheet 10 according to some embodiments of the present disclosure; Figure 2 It shows Figure 1 A three-dimensional image of the heating plate from another angle; Figure 3 It shows Figure 1 Exploded view of the heating element.

[0042] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the heating sheet 10 for atomizing an atomizing substrate to form an aerosol may include an atomizing substrate absorption matrix 11 and a heating body 12 .

[0043] The atomized matrix absorption matrix 11 is provided with a plurality of pores arranged according to a preset rule, and the heating body 12 is arranged on the surface of the atomized matrix absorption matrix 11 , wherein the plurality of pores are used to adsorb the atomized matrix and guide the adsorbed atomized matrix to the heating body 12 .

[0044] In the above-mentioned embodiment, the atomized matrix arrives at the heater 12 under the absorption and guiding effect of the multiple pores arranged according to the preset rules in the atomized matrix absorption matrix 11, so as to perform heating atomization at the heater 12. The above-mentioned embodiment directly attaches the heater to the atomized matrix absorption matrix provided with multiple pores, so that the heating contact area is larger and the heating is more uniform. In addition, the multiple pores arranged according to the preset rules (that is, having a certain regular distribution) can improve the uniformity and rate of the atomized matrix absorption matrix providing the atomized matrix. In this way, the aerosol formed can be made softer and more consistent, and it is not easy to produce problems such as sticky core. In addition, by directly arranging multiple pores for oil conduction in the matrix supporting the heater, the parts of the heating plate can also be reduced, and the thickness of the heating plate can be reduced.

[0045] The multiple pores of the atomizing matrix absorption matrix of the present invention can adsorb and guide the atomizing matrix through capillary action, thereby avoiding direct contact between the heating body 12 and the atomizing matrix, and further avoiding the atomizing matrix (for example, tobacco oil) from impacting the heating body 12 when the flow rate is too fast, causing it to directly enter the atomizing channel without being atomized.

[0046] In some embodiments, the heating body 12 can be made of, for example, iron-chromium-aluminum or nickel-chromium alloy. The atomized matrix absorption substrate 11 acts as a conductive part of the heating plate 10, and the heating body 12 is attached to the back of the atomized matrix absorption substrate 11 to act as a heating element.

[0047] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the electrode 13 may include an electrode 13 (specifically, a positive electrode and a negative electrode), which is electrically connected to the electrode contact 14 (specifically, a positive electrode contact and a negative electrode contact) of the heating body 12, and is powered by the external battery cell to supply power to the heating body 12. The heating body 12 can be used to heat the atomized matrix in the storage cavity (for example, the oil storage cavity) that is adsorbed by the atomized matrix absorption matrix 11 and guided to be transferred to the heating body 12, thereby forming an aerosol.

[0048] Alternatively, if Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, two electrode contacts 14 are arranged on both sides of the heating body 12, which can be electrode contact sheets extending over the entire length of the atomized matrix absorption matrix 11. A heating wire structure with a planar mesh structure is arranged between the two electrode contacts. For example, the heating wires are arranged in an array, and the middle part is rhombus-shaped. The heating wire structure can extend over the entire length of the atomized matrix absorption matrix 11. This helps to evenly heat the atomized matrix so as to promote the uniformity of the atomized matrix provided by the heating sheet 10. The heating body 12 with a planar mesh structure can be easily attached to the atomized matrix absorption matrix 11. In addition, when the heating body 12 does not have a mesh structure, the various parts in the heating body 12 are equivalent to a parallel state, which will cause the resistance value to decrease, thereby affecting the heating of the heating body 12. Therefore, the heating body 12 with a mesh structure is conducive to increasing the calorific value per unit area of ​​the heating body 12, thereby promoting the heating and atomization effect of the atomized matrix. In addition, the heating body with a plane (i.e., a sheet) has a greater heating power than the metal-plated film, making the atomization heavier and more sufficient, and the taste is better. In some examples, a smaller grid may be provided in the planar mesh structure of the heating body 12, thereby increasing the density of the grid and increasing the heat generated by a single surface area of ​​the heating body 12. A bending portion 15 (including an electrode contact bending portion and a heating wire bending portion) may be provided at at least one of the two ends of the heating body adjacent to the above-mentioned two sides, and the bending portion is used to be inserted into the atomized matrix absorption matrix to increase the firmness between the heating body and the atomized matrix absorption matrix.

[0049] In some embodiments, the atomized matrix absorption matrix can be made of glass or the like. Glass is, for example, quartz glass, high silica glass, or the like. Quartz glass includes, but is not limited to, one of natural quartz glass, synthetic quartz glass, transparent quartz glass, opaque quartz glass, and the like. Alternatively, the atomized matrix absorption matrix can also be made of other materials that can be processed by laser or the like to have multiple pores arranged in a preset regular pattern. Compared to the atomization core made of cotton and ceramics used in the prior art, quartz glass and other materials can be engraved with multiple micropores or pores arranged in a preset regular pattern by laser or other processing means, and multiple micropores or pores are used to adsorb the atomized matrix by capillary action, and are evenly distributed on the surface of multiple monomers, thereby promoting the uniformity and efficiency of adsorption and conduction of the atomized matrix (e.g., oil smoke), so that the formed aerosol is softer and has a better taste consistency.

[0050] In some other embodiments, the multiple pores of the atomized matrix absorption matrix can also be formed by sintering. Specifically, the atomized matrix absorption matrix 11 may include multiple monomers, and the multiple monomers are arranged so that multiple pores arranged according to preset rules are formed between each adjacent monomer in the multiple monomers. Compared with obtaining multiple pores directly on the atomized matrix absorption matrix 11 by other physical or chemical methods, the above-mentioned gaps between the monomers are used as pores, which can avoid the use of pore-forming agents. On the one hand, the safety of aerosol generation can be increased and odor can be avoided. On the other hand, the accuracy of multiple pore sizes and arrangement rules can be improved, and the pores generated can be further avoided from being blocked, so that the formed oil guide channel is not blocked. In this way, the atomized matrix can be adsorbed and conducted more evenly and quickly, and the uniformity and consistency of the atomized matrix provided by the heating plate can be promoted, and the efficiency of conduction is improved. Compared with the cotton atomizer core and the ceramic atomizer core, which need 1 to 2 minutes to guide the atomized matrix to the heating wire for heating, the heating plate of the above embodiment can improve the conduction efficiency of the atomized matrix, specifically, the smoke oil can be conducted to the heating body within 1 to 3 seconds, and water can be conducted to the heating body within less than 1 second. The shape and size of each of the multiple monomers can be consistent, or can be a shape and size with a certain error range, which can be set according to needs.

[0051] In some embodiments, each of the multiple monomers is spherical. Since the multiple monomers included in the atomizing matrix absorption matrix 11 are relatively small in size, the spherical monomers are easy to process, which can further reduce the manufacturing cost. In addition, it is convenient to form pores with suitable pore area between the multiple spherical monomers, so that the multiple pores can adsorb and guide the atomizing matrix through capillary action, thereby avoiding direct contact between the heating body 12 and the atomizing matrix, and further avoiding the atomizing matrix (e.g., smoke oil) from impacting the heating body 12 when the flow rate is too fast, causing it to directly enter the atomizing channel without atomization. In addition, when the atomizing matrix supplied to the heating plate 10 is exhausted, the atomizing matrix of the multiple pores stored in the heating plate 10 can avoid the dry burning of the heating plate and avoid the generation of burnt smell.

[0052] In some embodiments, the diameter of each of the multiple monomers is in the range of 100 μm to 150 μm. Thus, the multiple monomers can form multiple pores of appropriate size, for example, the size of the pore size of the multiple pores can be set to micron level, for example, the pore size of the multiple pores formed can be, for example, in the range of 40 μm to 50 μm, so that the multiple pores can achieve the function of oil guiding and oil locking. Specifically, on the one hand, the smoke oil can be adsorbed and guided through the multiple pores, and on the other hand, the tension of the atomization matrix such as the smoke oil can be used to prevent it from passing through the heating plate 10 into the atomization channel, thereby reducing the risk of leakage. In addition, having a diameter in the range of 100 μm to 150 μm enables each of the multiple monomers to withstand higher manufacturing temperatures and will not melt.

[0053] In certain embodiments, a plurality of monomers are made of quartz glass. Wherein, quartz glass includes but is not limited to one of natural quartz glass, synthetic quartz glass, transparent quartz glass, opaque quartz glass, etc. A plurality of monomers made of quartz glass can increase the overall strength, damage resistance and temperature resistance of the atomized matrix absorption matrix 11. These properties of quartz glass can make the atomized matrix absorption matrix itself can be used as a support member of a heater, and can be used as a guide member of an atomized matrix, thereby reducing the thickness of the atomized matrix absorption matrix and increasing its service life. In addition, quartz glass also has extremely high safety and is a food grade material. Thus, the safety of the aerosol formed can be increased using quartz glass.

[0054] The above-mentioned spherical multiple monomers made of quartz glass and the multiple monomers have a diameter ranging from 100μm to 150μm, so that the prepared atomized matrix absorption matrix can withstand a high temperature of more than 1000°C without melting, thereby increasing the service life of the heating plate.

[0055] In some embodiments, the content of quartz glass in the atomized matrix absorption substrate 11 is greater than or equal to 90%. Therefore, the use of quartz glass can further increase the service life of the heating plate and improve the safety of the aerosol formed.

[0056] In certain embodiments, the thickness of the atomized matrix absorption substrate 11 is less than 2mm, for example, less than 1mm. Optionally, the thickness of the atomized matrix absorption substrate 11 can also be set to between about 1mm and 1.2mm. The atomized matrix absorption substrate of the present disclosure (for example, a plurality of monomers made of quartz glass are arranged to form) can realize that the heating sheet has a smaller volume, and does not affect the intensity of the atomized matrix absorption substrate.

[0057] In some embodiments, the shape of the cross section of the atomized matrix absorption matrix 11 can be set to a circular shape, a square shape, etc. In the case where the cross section of the atomized matrix absorption matrix 11 is a square shape, the width of the atomized matrix absorption matrix 11 can be set to about 7 mm, for example, and the length of the atomized matrix absorption matrix 11 can be set to about 9 mm. It should be understood that the size of the atomized matrix absorption matrix 11 can be set to other values ​​according to the size of the atomizer.

[0058] In certain embodiments, the atomized matrix absorption substrate 11 is formed by sintering a plurality of monomers arranged in an array at a temperature between 800°C and 900°C without adding a pore-forming agent. Wherein, the pore-forming agent includes but is not limited to high-temperature decomposable salts such as ammonium carbonate, ammonium bicarbonate, and ammonium chloride, and other decomposable compounds such as Si3N4, or inorganic carbon such as coal powder, carbon powder, sawdust, naphthalene, starch, and one of polyvinyl alcohol, urea, methyl methacrylate, polyvinyl chloride, and polystyrene. By sintering at 800°C to 900°C, a plurality of monomers arranged in an array can be combined together, and pores of suitable size can be formed between adjacent monomers without the need for a pore-forming agent as described above. This avoids the pores being blocked by foreign matter produced during the sintering process of the pore-forming agent, resulting in the uneven and inconsistent pores formed.

[0059] In some embodiments, the heating body 12 can be sintered integrally with a plurality of monomers. Thus, the manufacturing process can be simplified and the economic benefits can be improved. In addition, the sintering process makes it more efficient to attach the heating body 12 to the atomized matrix absorption base 11, and the attachment is more firmly and tightly, and it is not easy to fall off even if the heating body 12 is operated under continuous heating in actual use. In some examples, the heating body and a plurality of monomers can be injected into a mold by pressure to form a primary embryo, and then further fired.

[0060] Figure 4 is a perspective view showing a heating sheet 10' according to other embodiments of the present disclosure; Figure 5 It shows Figure 4A three-dimensional image of the heating plate from another angle; Figure 6 It shows Figure 4 An exploded view of the heating plate. Figures 4 to 6 The characteristics of the heating plate 10' in Figures 1 to 3 The features of the heating sheet 10 are basically the same, the difference between the two is that, Figures 4 to 6 The planar mesh-structured heating wire structure extends over a partial length of the atomized matrix absorption base 11 ′, and the electrode contact 14 ′ is a partially hollowed-out electrode contact sheet structure.

[0061] Specifically, a heating wire structure of a planar mesh structure is provided between the two electrode contacts 14' of the heating body 12'. The heating wire structure can extend over a portion of the length of the atomizing matrix absorption matrix 11. A bending portion 15' (including the electrode contact bending portion) can be provided at at least one of the two ends of the heating body adjacent to the above-mentioned two sides, and the bending portion is used to be inserted into the atomizing matrix absorption matrix to increase the firmness between the heating body and the atomizing matrix absorption matrix.

[0062] It should be understood that in addition to the features described above, other features of the heating plate 10' (e.g., features of the atomized matrix absorption matrix 11', other features of the heating body 12', features of the electrode 13' and the electrode contact 14', etc.) can be the same as those of the embodiment of the present invention. Figures 1 to 3 The corresponding features of the heating body 10 described in the above are the same, and for the sake of brevity, they are not described in detail here. According to another aspect of the present disclosure, an atomizer core including the above-mentioned heating plate 10 or 10' is provided. Figures 7 to 9 The atomizer core 100 including the heating sheet 10 is described in detail.

[0063] Figure 7 It shows that the Figure 1 An exploded view of the atomizer core 100 of the heating plate 10, Figure 7 Further, an exploded view of an atomizer 1000 including the atomizer core 100 is shown; Figure 8 It shows Figure 7 A cross-sectional view of an atomizer; Fig. 9 It shows Figure 7 A cross-sectional view of the atomizer from another angle.

[0064] like Figure 7 As shown, the atomizer core 100 may include an atomizer core housing 110, an atomizer seat 120, and Figures 1 to 3 The heating sheet 10 is described.

[0065] The atomizer core housing 110 defines an air flow inlet 111 , an air flow outlet 112 , a receiving space 113 between the air flow inlet 111 and the air flow outlet 112 , and an atomizer substrate inlet 114 leading into the receiving space 113 .

[0066] like Figure 7 As shown, the atomizing substrate inlet 114 is formed in the atomizing core housing wall and penetrates the atomizing core housing wall, thereby connecting the space outside the atomizing core housing and the accommodating space 113, so that the atomizing substrate outside the atomizing core housing 110 can enter the interior of the atomizing core housing 110. Figure 7 In the figure, one atomizing matrix inlet 114 is shown, that is, a structure with a single oil inlet. The atomizing core with one atomizing matrix inlet has the advantage of being more resistant to negative pressure. In some other embodiments, multiple atomizing matrix inlets may also be provided.

[0067] The atomizer seat 120 is disposed in the accommodating space 113, and the atomizer seat 120 defines an atomizer channel 121 for communicating with the air flow inlet 111 and the air flow outlet 112. Fig. 9 As shown, the cavity roughly in the center of the atomizer seat 120 forms an atomization channel 121 for air, steam and aerosol to flow through. When the atomizer seat 120 is installed in the accommodating space 113 of the atomizer core housing 110, one end of the atomization channel 121 is connected to the airflow inlet 111 of the atomizer core housing 110, and the other end is connected to the airflow outlet 112.

[0068] The atomizing seat 1200 further defines an opening 122 for connecting the atomizing substrate inlet 114 and the atomizing channel 121. Figure 7 As shown, the atomizer seat 120 is provided with an opening 122 at least partially opposite to the atomizer substrate inlet 114 on the atomizer core housing 110, and the heating plate 10 can be arranged in the opening 122, and the opening 122 can be provided with a step for supporting the heating plate 10. Since the opening 122 is formed in the side wall of the atomizer seat 120 and penetrates the side wall, the opening 122 is opposite to the atomizer substrate inlet 114 and leads to the atomization channel 121, therefore, the atomizer substrate located outside the atomizer core housing 110 can enter the atomization channel 121 via the atomizer substrate inlet 114 and the opening 122.

[0069] like Figures 7 to 9 As shown, the heating sheet 10 is arranged in the atomizing seat 120, the heating body faces the atomizing channel, and the surface of the atomizing substrate absorption substrate opposite to the heating body faces the atomizing substrate inlet. Thus, the atomizing substrate entering through the atomizing substrate inlet 114 (and the opening 122) can reach the heating sheet 10, and penetrate into the heating body through the multiple pores of the atomizing substrate absorption substrate on the heating sheet 10, so as to be heated by the heating body and atomized to form an aerosol.

[0070] In the above embodiment, when the user inhales at the airflow outlet 112, the airflow can reach the airflow outlet 112 from the airflow inlet 111 via the atomization channel 121 in the atomization seat 120, thereby forming an airflow path. A part of the airflow path (i.e., the atomization channel 121) forms an atomization chamber. Among them, one side of the heating plate 10 is communicated with the atomization substrate inlet 114 via an opening 122, and the other side is communicated with the air fluid in the atomization channel 121. The atomization substrate located outside the atomization core housing 110 penetrates into the atomization substrate absorption matrix 11 of the heating plate 10 through the atomization substrate inlet 114 and the opening 122, and then continues to penetrate into the heating body 12 of the heating plate 10, so as to reach the heating body on the first surface 111 of the heating plate, and steam is formed after atomization by heating the heating body. Steam is entrained in the air flowing through the atomization channel 121 to form an aerosol for the user to inhale.

[0071] In some embodiments, the heating plate 10 can be arranged longitudinally in the atomizer seat, that is, parallel to the longitudinal extension direction of the atomizer seat 120 or the atomizer core housing 110, so that the heating plate does not block the airflow in the atomization channel 121 from the airflow inlet 111 to the airflow outlet 112. The above embodiment can make the formed aerosol (i.e., smoke) unobstructed to improve the taste restoration.

[0072] In some embodiments, the atomizer core housing 110 is a hollow structure, which is used to provide an installation space for the atomizer seat 120 and form an air flow passage therein for air to flow. The atomizer core housing 110 can be made of metal, such as a hard material such as copper, iron, aluminum, etc., so as to protect the components therein and separate the storage cavity from the atomization channel 121.

[0073] In some embodiments, the atomizer core 100 further includes a sealing cap 130 disposed at one end of the atomizer core housing 110 where the airflow outlet 112 is located. The sealing cap 130 defines an airflow hole 131, and the airflow outlet 112 is connected to the airflow hole 131 to discharge the formed aerosol from the airflow hole 131. The sealing cap can not only guide the discharge of the aerosol, but also be embedded in a guide tube (described in detail below) of the shell body of the atomizer to separate the guide tube from the environment around the atomizer core to prevent leakage of the formed aerosol.

[0074] In some embodiments, the surface of the atomizing matrix absorption matrix 11 opposite to the heating body 12 is covered on the atomizing matrix inlet 114. Thus, the atomizing matrix absorption matrix 11 can act as a buffer structure between the heating plate 10 and the atomizing matrix, preventing the atomizing matrix (e.g., cigarette oil) from impacting the heating plate 10 when the flow rate is too fast, thereby causing it to not be atomized and directly enter the atomization channel, but to be guided to the heating body for heating through multiple pores of the atomizing matrix absorption matrix 11, thereby promoting the uniformity of heating. The atomizing matrix absorption matrix 11 of the heating plate 10 is used as a guiding buffer structure between the atomizing matrix inlet and the heating body, without the need to additionally set up additional atomizing matrix absorption materials, thereby reducing the number of components and reducing manufacturing costs.

[0075] In some other embodiments, such as Figure 7 and Fig. 9 As shown, in order to further reduce the risk of leakage, the atomizer core 100 may also include an atomization matrix absorption material 61. At this time, the heating plate 10 is arranged in the atomization channel 121 of the atomizer seat, and the atomization matrix absorption material 61 is embedded in the opening 122 and is located between the atomization matrix inlet 114 and the heating plate 10. The first side of the atomization matrix absorption material 61 covers the atomization matrix inlet 114 from the inner side of the atomization core housing, and the second side opposite to the first side is against the heating plate 10. Thus, a buffer structure can be further provided between the heating plate 10 and the atomization matrix to prevent the atomization matrix (e.g., smoke oil) from impacting the heating plate when the flow rate is too fast, thereby causing it to directly enter the atomization channel without atomization. In some examples, the atomization matrix absorption material 61 may include cotton or woven fabric, including but not limited to sanitary napkins, inert cotton, organic cotton, composite cotton, linen cotton, asbestos, and fiber cotton. Cotton or woven fabric is made of fibers, which can absorb and guide oil, thereby better achieving the effect of buffering and avoiding excessive oil. In addition, cotton has the characteristic of evenly distributed pores, which makes the oil conduction smoother.

[0076] In some embodiments, the atomizer core housing 110 defines a notch 115, and the notch 115 extends from one end of the atomizer substrate inlet 114 toward the airflow inlet 111 toward the airflow inlet 111. The above embodiment can allow the airflow from the airflow inlet 111 to flow at least partially through the notch, forming an air pressure during the suction process of the atomizer, so that the atomizer substrate is supplied to the heating plate more smoothly. In some embodiments, the notch 115 has a width in a direction perpendicular to the extension direction of the notch 115, and the width is set to between 0.05mm and 0.35mm. In this way, the atomizer substrate such as smoke oil can form an oil film between the edges of the notch, thereby avoiding leakage.

[0077] In some embodiments, the size of the opening 122 is smaller than the size of the heating sheet to prevent the heating sheet 10 from falling out of the opening 122. In some other embodiments, the shape and size of the opening 122 may be set so that the heating sheet 10 can be placed in the atomization channel 121 through the opening 122. Specifically, for example, the size of the opening 122 may be set to be slightly larger than the size of the heating sheet 10, or the size of the opening 122 may be set to be slightly smaller than the size of the heating sheet 10 and the heating sheet 10 may pass through, for example, slightly tilted, and / or the shape of the opening 122 may be set to match the shape of the heating sheet 10.

[0078] The atomizer core 100 may further include an electrode 13, such as Figures 1 to 3 In the illustrated embodiment, the electrode 13 includes two electrodes for contacting the electrode contacts on the heating plate 10. One end of the electrode 13 can extend into the atomizing seat 120 to contact the electrode contacts on the heating plate 10, and the other end at least partially extends from the accommodating space 113 to be electrically connected to the electrode member 1800. The material of the electrode includes, but is not limited to, pure copper, graphite, brass, steel, cast iron, and tungsten alloy.

[0079] According to another aspect of the present disclosure, an atomizer 1000 is provided, comprising: the atomizer core 100 described above; and a housing, wherein the atomizer core is disposed in the housing, and a storage cavity for storing atomized substrate is formed between the inner wall of the housing and the outer wall of the atomizer core. Figures 7 to 9 As shown, the atomizer 1000 may include the atomizer core 100 and a housing 1100 .

[0080] The atomizer core 100 is disposed in the housing body 1200, and the storage cavity is defined by the inner wall of the housing body 3200, the base 1300 and the outer wall of the atomizer core housing 110 of the atomizer core. The atomizer substrate in the storage cavity can enter the atomizer core housing through the atomizer substrate inlet 114.

[0081] The atomizer 1000 is also provided with an electrode member 1800 and a magnetic member 1400, and the base 1300 is provided with a through hole, and the electrode 13 of the atomizing core 100 is at least partially arranged in the through hole, and one end of the electrode 13 is electrically connected to the electrode contact on the heating plate, and the other end is electrically connected to the electrode member 1800. In some embodiments, the material of the electrode member includes but is not limited to pure copper, graphite, brass, steel, cast iron, and tungsten alloy. The material of the base 1300 can be composite plastic, etc. In order to prevent the atomized matrix in the storage cavity from leaking from places other than the atomized matrix entrance, a seal 1500 is provided on one side of the base 1300 located at the storage cavity.

[0082] In some embodiments, the housing body 1200 defines a nozzle opening 1600 and a guide tube 1700 extending inwardly from the nozzle opening 1600. The sealing cap 130 is used to be embedded in the guide tube 1700 of the housing body of the atomizer, so that the aerosol formed by the atomizer core 100 flows from the sealing cap 130 to the guide tube 1700 and flows out from the nozzle opening 1600. The sealing cap 130 can separate the guide tube 1700 from the environment around the atomizer core 100, thereby preventing the aerosol formed by the atomizer core from leaking to the environment around the atomizer core. The sealing cap 130 makes the structure of the atomizer 1000 including the atomizer core 100 more compact and has a better sealing effect. In some embodiments, the base 1300 is used to accommodate the side where the airflow inlet of the atomizer core 100 is located. The portion of the base opposite to the atomization substrate inlet can be provided with a groove to avoid the atomization substrate inlet, thereby helping to achieve effective supply to the atomization substrate inlet when there are fewer atomization substrates in the storage chamber.
