[0034] Reference Figure 1 As shown, the aerosol generating device involved in the embodiment of the present application includes: a first heating module 100 and a second heating module 200.

[0035] Specifically, the first heating module 100 is provided with a first air inlet 110 and a first air outlet 120, the first air inlet 110 is connected with the first air outlet 120, and in a preset direction, the first air inlet 110 is located behind the first air outlet 120; the second heating module 200 is provided with a second air inlet 210 and a second air outlet 220, the second air inlet 210 is connected with the first air outlet 120, and the second air outlet 220 is connected with the second air inlet 210, in the preset direction, the second air outlet 220 is located in front of the second air inlet 210, and the first air outlet 120 is located behind the second air inlet 210; wherein, the air flow enters the first heating module 100 from the first air inlet 110 and flows along the preset direction.

[0036] It should be noted that the preset direction is Figure 1 The direction that x points to.

[0037] In the above-mentioned aerosol generating device, the airflow can enter the first heating module 100 from the first air inlet 110 to heat the airflow through the first heating module 100. During the process of the first heating module 100 heating the airflow, the airflow entering the first heating module 100 will affect the temperature of the first heating module 100, causing the temperature of the first heating module 100 to drop, so that the airflow cannot be heated to the preset temperature. At this time, the airflow can continue to flow along the preset direction and enter the second heating module 200 through the first air outlet 120 and the second air inlet 210 to further heat the airflow through the second heating module 200, so that the airflow can be heated to the preset temperature, thereby improving the stability of the hot airflow that heats the aerosol matrix, thereby improving the heating effect of the hot airflow on the aerosol matrix.

[0038] Continue to refer to Figure 1As shown, the aerosol generating device further includes a power supply module 300 , and the first heating module 100 and the second heating module 200 are both electrically connected to the power supply module 300 .

[0039] It can be understood that since the first heating module 100 and the second heating module 200 are both electrically connected to the power supply module 300, the first heating module 100 and the second heating module 200 can be powered by the power supply module 300, so that the first heating module 100 and the second heating module 200 are powered on and heated, thereby enabling the first heating module 100 and the second heating module 200 to heat the airflow.

[0040] Reference Figure 1 as well as Figure 2 As shown, the first heating module 100 includes a first heating element 130, a first air inlet 110 and a first air outlet 120 are both opened on the first heating element 130, the first heating element 130 is provided with a heating chamber 131, the first air inlet 110 and the first air outlet 120 are both connected to the heating chamber 131, and the first air inlet 110 is arranged behind the heating chamber 131 along a preset direction, and the first air outlet 120 is arranged in front of the heating chamber 131 along the preset direction.

[0041] It can be understood that since the first air inlet 110 and the first air outlet 120 are both connected to the heating chamber 131, and the first air inlet 110 is arranged at the rear of the heating chamber 131 along the preset direction, and the first air outlet 120 is arranged at the front of the heating chamber 131 along the preset direction, the airflow can enter the heating chamber 131 through the first air inlet 110, so that the airflow can be heated in the heating chamber 131. At the same time, the airflow in the heating chamber 131 can flow to the second heating module 200 via the first air outlet 120 to achieve reheating of the airflow, thereby improving the stability of the hot airflow that heats the aerosol matrix, thereby improving the heating effect of the hot airflow on the aerosol matrix.

[0042] Continue to refer to Figure 1 as well as Figure 2 As shown, the first heating module 100 further includes a first heating element 140 , which is disposed in the heating chamber 131 , and the power supply module 300 is electrically connected to the first heating element 140 .

[0043] Specifically, in the above embodiments, the material of the first heating element 130 can be ceramic, glass, fiber, metal, plastic, etc., and the shape of the first heating element 130 can be a cube, a rectangular parallelepiped, a cylinder, a triangular prism, a polyhedron, etc., so as to provide a certain thermal insulation effect for the heating chamber 131.

[0044] It can be understood that, since the first heating element 140 is arranged in the heating chamber 131, and the power supply module 300 is electrically connected to the first heating element 140, the first heating element 140 can be powered on and heated through the power supply module 300, so that the first heating element 140 can increase the temperature in the heating chamber 131, and further heat the first heating element 130, so that the first heating element 130 can provide insulation for the heating chamber 131 and the first heating element 140. At the same time, when the airflow enters the heating chamber 131, it can be heated by the first heating element 140 in the heating chamber 131, and can also be heated by the cavity wall of the heating chamber 131. However, when the airflow enters the heating chamber 131, it will also have a certain cooling effect on the heating chamber 131 and the first heating element 140. Therefore, the phenomenon of unstable hot air flow is prone to occur. At this time, the airflow can be further heated by the second heating module 200 to improve the stability of the hot air flow.

[0045] Specifically, in the above-mentioned embodiment, the edge of the first air inlet 110 is curved, the first heating element 140 is consistent with the shape of the edge of the first air inlet 110, and the first heating element 140 is located in front of the first air inlet 110 along a preset direction. In this way, the airflow can be broken up through the first air inlet 110 so that the airflow can be in a turbulent state, so that the airflow can be fully heated in the heating chamber 131, thereby improving the heating effect of the airflow in the first heating module 100. At the same time, the airflow entering through the first air inlet 110 can first contact the first heating element 140, which can further improve the heating effect of the airflow in the first heating module 100.

[0046] Reference Figure 1 as well as Figure 3 As shown, the second heating module 200 includes a second heating element 230, and the second heating element 230 is provided with a plurality of heating through holes 231 arranged at intervals, each heating through hole 231 is extended along a preset direction, and there are multiple second air inlets 210 and second air outlets 220. In the preset direction, the rear end of each heating through hole 231 is connected to a second air inlet 210, and the front end of each heating through hole 231 is connected to a second air outlet 220.

[0047] Specifically, in the above-mentioned embodiment, each second air inlet 210 is communicated with the first air outlet 120 .

[0048] It can be understood that the airflow flowing out of the first heating element 130 from the first air outlet 120 can enter each second air inlet 210, and enter the heating through hole 231 connected thereto through each second air inlet 210, so that the airflow can be heated in multiple heating through holes 231. In this process, the airflow can be further dispersed through multiple heating through holes 231, so that the airflow entering the second heating element 230 can be in a turbulent state, so that the airflow can be fully heated in the second heating element 230, thereby improving the heating effect of the airflow in the second heating module 200. At the same time, when the airflow flows out of the second air outlet 220 through multiple heating through holes 231, the airflow can be distributed more evenly, so that the aerosol matrix can be heated more evenly, further improving the heating effect of the aerosol matrix.

[0049] Continue to refer to Figure 1 as well as Figure 3 As shown, the second heating module 200 further includes a second heating element 240 , the second heating element 240 is in contact with the second heating element 230 , and the second heating element 240 is electrically connected to the power supply module 300 .

[0050] Specifically, in the above-mentioned embodiment, the second heating element 230 is a microporous ceramic heating element, which has countless small pores, has the effects of adsorption and emission, and has good heating effects. At the same time, the small pores of the microporous ceramic heating element can make the aerosol matrix evaporate more actively through heating. The shape of the second heating element 230 can be a cube, a cuboid, a cylinder, a triangular prism, a polyhedron, etc.

[0051] More specifically, in the above-mentioned embodiment, the second heating element 240 contacts the outer surface of the second heating element 230 . In addition, in other embodiments, the second heating element 240 may also be replaced on the surface of the second heating element 230 .

[0052] It can be understood that since the second heating element 240 is in contact with the second heating element 230 and the second heating element 240 is electrically connected to the power supply module 300, the second heating element 240 can be energized through the power supply module 300 so that the second heating element 240 is energized and generates heat, and further the second heating element 240 heats the first heating element 130 so that the first heating element 130 can generate heat. In this way, when the airflow flows through the multiple heating through holes 231, the airflow can be heated by the first heating element 130.

[0053] Reference Figure 1As shown, the aerosol generating device also includes a shell 400, the shell 400 is provided with a third air inlet 410 and a accommodating chamber 420, the first heating module 100, the second heating module 200 and the power supply module 300 are all arranged in the shell 400, the third air inlet 410 is connected with the first air inlet 110, and the third air inlet 410 is arranged behind the first air inlet 110 along the preset direction, the accommodating chamber 420 is connected with the second air outlet 220, and the accommodating chamber 420 is arranged in front of the second air inlet 210 along the preset direction.

[0054] It can be understood that the accommodating chamber 420 is used for placing the aerosol matrix. Since the third air inlet 410 is connected to the first air inlet 110, and the third air inlet 410 is arranged behind the first air inlet 110 along the preset direction, the accommodating chamber 420 is connected to the second air outlet 220, and the accommodating chamber 420 is arranged in front of the second air inlet 210 along the preset direction, therefore, the airflow can enter the above-mentioned aerosol generating device through the third air inlet 410, and flow through the first heating module 100 and the second heating module 200 in turn through the first air inlet 110, the first air outlet 120 and the second air inlet 210, and enter the accommodating chamber 420 through the second air outlet 220, so as to achieve the purpose of heating the aerosol matrix in the accommodating chamber 420.

[0055] Continue to refer to Figure 1 As shown, the aerosol generating device further includes a control module 500 , which is disposed in the housing 400 , and is electrically connected to the power supply module 300 .

[0056] It can be understood that since the control module 500 is electrically connected to the power supply module 300, the control module 500 can control the power supply module 300 to supply power to the first heating module 100 and the second heating module 200, so as to achieve the purpose of heating the airflow by the first heating module 100 and the second heating module 200.

[0057] Continue to refer to Figure 1 As shown, the control module 500 includes an airflow sensing switch 510 . The airflow sensing switch 510 is located at the third air inlet 410 , and the airflow sensing switch 510 is electrically connected to the power supply module 300 .

[0058] Specifically, in the above-mentioned embodiment, the airflow sensing switch 510 is a microphone airflow sensing switch 510 .

[0059] It can be understood that since the airflow sensing switch 510 is located at the third air inlet 410 and the airflow sensing switch 510 is electrically connected to the power supply module 300, when the airflow enters the aerosol generating device through the third air inlet 410, the airflow can first contact the airflow sensing switch 510, so that the airflow sensing switch 510 is triggered, and further the airflow sensing switch 510 controls the power supply module 300 to obtain power, so that the power supply module 300 can supply power to the first heating module 100 and the second heating module 200, thereby making the first heating module 100 and the second heating module 200 heat up, when the airflow enters the first heating module 100 and the second heating module 200, the airflow can be heated, when there is no airflow passing through the above-mentioned aerosol generating device, the airflow sensing switch 510 is in an off state, and at this time the power supply module 300 is also in an off state, which can extend the single service life of the power supply module 300.

[0060] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 3 as well as Figure 4 As shown, the aerosol generating device also includes an isolation limit member 600, which is arranged in the outer shell 400, and the isolation limit member 600 is sealed to the inner wall of the outer shell 400, and the isolation limit member 600 is arranged between the first heating module 100 and the second heating module 200. The isolation limit member 600 is provided with a plurality of air holes 610, and the first air outlet 120 is connected to any second air inlet 210 through the plurality of air holes 610.

[0061] It can be understood that, since the isolation limiter 600 is sealed and connected to the inner wall of the housing 400, and the isolation limiter 600 is arranged between the first heating module 100 and the second heating module 200, the isolation limiter 600 can isolate the first heating module 100 and the second heating module 200, and at the same time, it can also limit the second heating module 200, so that the first heating module 100 and the second heating module 200 can be spaced apart, and at the same time, it can also prevent the aerosol matrix in the accommodating cavity 420 from passing through the second heating module 200. The gap between the thermal module 200 and the outer shell 400 enters into the first heating module 100, the power supply module 300 and the control module 500, so as to avoid leakage of the aerosol matrix. Furthermore, since the isolation limit member 600 is provided with a plurality of air holes 610, the first air outlet 120 is connected with any second air inlet 210 through the plurality of air holes 610. Therefore, it is possible to ensure that the airflow in the first heating module 100 enters into the second heating module 200 through the isolation limit member 600, thereby avoiding interference of the isolation limit member 600 with the flow of the airflow.
