[0027] In order to enable those skilled in the art of this technology to better understand the solution of this application, the technical solutions in the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings.

[0028] Please refer to the attached Figure 1 to the attached Figure 6As shown in the figure, an embodiment of the present application provides an aerosol generating device, which includes a housing 1, an atomization component 2 and a microphone 3 arranged in the housing 1. The microphone 3 is arranged on one side of the atomization component 2. An air inlet hole 11 communicating with the microphone 3 is arranged on the housing 1. A communication hole 12 is further arranged in the housing 1, and the communication hole 12 is used to communicate the atomization component 2 and the microphone 3. When the user sucks, external gas enters the housing 1 from the air inlet hole 11, and reaches the atomization component 2 after passing through the microphone 3 and the communication hole 12 in sequence. In the present application, the microphone 3 and the atomization component 2 are only connected through the communication hole 12, effectively reducing the contact area between the microphone 3 and the atomization component 2. At the same time, the microphone 3 is arranged on one side of the atomization component 2, and the distance between the microphone 3 and the atomization component 2 is increased, effectively preventing the aerosol from volatilizing or the condensate from accumulating and entering the microphone 3, preventing the microphone 3 from being damaged and preventing the phenomenon that the microphone 3 starts automatically after long-term storage.

[0029] As shown in the attached Figure 1 to the attached Figure 4 figure. Further, the air inlet hole 11 is arranged on the side surface of the housing 1 and is located above the microphone 3, and the microphone 3 is arranged between the air inlet hole 11 and the communication hole 12. Side air intake can reduce the generation of condensate, prevent the condensate from accumulating and entering the microphone 3, resulting in damage to the microphone 3 and preventing the phenomenon that the microphone 3 starts automatically after long-term storage. At the same time, the microphone 3 is arranged between the air inlet hole 11 and the communication hole 12, and the microphone 3 and the atomization component 2 are only connected through the communication hole 12 below the microphone 3, effectively reducing the contact area between the microphone 3 and the atomization component 2, reducing the possibility of the aerosol and the aerosol medium directly contacting the microphone due to volatilization, and avoiding the occurrence of the microphone 3 starting automatically or other failures due to the infiltration of the aerosol, condensate, etc. into the microphone 3.

[0030] As shown in the attached Figure 2 to the attached Figure 5 figure. Further, the aerosol generating device further includes a first bracket 5 arranged in the housing 1. A first accommodation cavity 51 communicating the microphone 3 and the communication hole 12 is arranged on the first bracket 5, and the microphone 3 is clamped in the accommodation cavity 51. The accommodation cavity 51 plays a role in fixing the microphone 3, preventing the microphone 3 from shifting. At the same time, the accommodation cavity 51 plays a role in communicating the microphone 3 and the communication hole 12, facilitating external air to enter the microphone 3 from the air inlet hole 11 and reaching the atomization component 2 after passing through the accommodation cavity 51 and the communication hole 12 in sequence, and facilitating the microphone 3 to trigger the operation of the aerosol generating device by sensing the user's inhalation action.

[0031] As shown in the attachedFigure 2 To the attached Figure 4 As shown, further, the aerosol generating device further includes a control panel 6, the control panel 6 is disposed on one side of the atomizing assembly 2, and the microphone 3 is disposed on the control panel 6 and electrically connected to the control panel 6. The aerosol generating device is provided with a mouthpiece 4 communicating with the atomizing assembly 2. When the user sucks the mouthpiece 4, outside air passes through the microphone 3, the microphone 3 senses the user's inhalation action, sends a signal to the control panel 6, and the control panel 6 controls the operation of the atomizing assembly 2, so that the atomizing assembly 2 generates aerosol.

[0032] As attached Figure 2 To the attached Figure 4 As shown, further, the aerosol generating device further includes a display module 7, and the display module 7 is disposed on the control panel 6. This not only facilitates the installation of the display module 7 and the electrical connection between the display module 7 and the control panel 6, but also facilitates the sealing design of the areas of the control panel 6 and the display module 7. At the same time, the display module 7 is disposed on the side of the aerosol generating device, that is, it is displayed on the side, reasonably utilizing the space inside the aerosol generating device, with a compact overall structure, and the air intake channels of the microphone 3 and the atomizing assembly 2 do not pass through the display module 7, avoiding the influence of aerosol or condensate on the display module 7.

[0033] As attached Figure 2 To the attached Figure 4 As shown, further, an air intake groove 61 is formed on the control panel 6, and a first through hole 52 communicating the air intake groove 61 and the air intake hole 11 is formed on the first bracket 5. Forming the air intake groove 61 on the control panel 6 facilitates outside gas to enter the housing 1 through the air intake hole 11 and then pass through the microphone 3, facilitating the microphone 3 to trigger the operation of the aerosol generating device by sensing the user's inhalation action.

[0034] As attached Figure 2 To the attached Figure 4 And attached Figure 6 As shown, further, the aerosol generating device further includes a second bracket 8, the atomizing assembly 2 and the control panel 6 are respectively fixed on the second bracket 8, a connecting column 81 is disposed on the second bracket 8, a second receiving cavity 53 communicating with the first receiving cavity 51 is further disposed on the first bracket 5, the connecting column 81 is inserted into the second receiving cavity 53, and the communication hole 12 is disposed inside the connecting column 81. The connecting column 81 passes through the control panel 6 and is inserted into the second receiving cavity 53, and the second receiving cavity 53 fixes the connecting column 81, preventing the connecting column 81 from shifting and avoiding affecting the entry of outside air into the atomizing assembly 2.

[0035] As shown in the appended Figure 2 to the appended Figure 4 As shown, further, a connecting groove 54 is provided between the first accommodating cavity 51 and the second accommodating cavity 53, and the first accommodating cavity 51 is communicated with the second accommodating cavity 53 through the connecting groove 54. This facilitates external air to enter the microphone 3 from the air inlet hole 11, and then pass through the accommodating cavity 51, the connecting groove 54, the second accommodating cavity 53, and the communication hole 12 in sequence to reach the atomization assembly 2, facilitating the microphone 3 to trigger the operation of the aerosol generating device by sensing the user's inhalation action.

[0036] As shown in the appended Figure 2 to the appended Figure 4 and the appended Figure 6 As shown, further, a baffle 82 is further provided on the second bracket 8. The baffle 82 is disposed between the control panel 6 and the atomization assembly 2, and the control panel 6 is fixed on the baffle 82. The baffle 82 plays a role of separation, that is, dividing the inside of the housing 1 into two left and right regions. One region is used to install devices such as the microphone 3, the control panel 6, and the display module 7, and the other region is used to install the atomization assembly 2. The baffle 82 separates these two regions, and only the two regions are communicated through the communication hole 12, effectively reducing the contact area between the two regions, increasing the distance between devices such as the microphone 3, the control panel 6, and the display module 7 and the atomization assembly 2, effectively preventing the aerosol from volatilizing or the condensate from aggregating and entering the regions of devices such as the microphone 3, the control panel 6, and the display module 7, preventing device damage and preventing phenomena such as the microphone 3 self-starting during long-term storage.

[0037] Furthermore, in the present application, the atomization assembly 2 is a square oil tank, and the structure in which the second bracket 8 divides the inside of the housing 1 into two left and right regions, one region for installing devices such as the microphone 3, the control panel 6, and the display module 7, and the other region for installing the atomization assembly 2, this structure is not only applicable to the square oil tank of the present application, but also applicable to circular or irregularly shaped oil tanks, enabling the aerosol generating device to separate the region where the microphone 3, the control panel 6, the display module 7, etc. are located when using a circular or irregularly shaped oil tank, preventing device damage and preventing phenomena such as the microphone 3 self-starting during long-term storage.

[0038] As shown in the appended Figure 2 to the appended Figure 4 and the appended Figure 6As shown, further, a first sealing ring 91 is provided between the atomization component 2 and the second bracket 8, and a second sealing ring 92 is provided between the second bracket 8 and the control panel 6. The first sealing ring 91 is provided to form a sealed air circulation space 93 within the second bracket 8, facilitating the timely entry of external air into the atomization component 2 when the user sucks the mouthpiece 4. At the same time, the inner wall of the housing 1 and the first bracket 5, as well as the first bracket 5 and the control panel 6, are closely attached, making the air intake passage where the microphone 3 is located relatively airtight. The second sealing ring 92 is provided to seal the connection between the air circulation space 93 and the air intake passage, improving the sensitivity of the microphone 3 to sense the user's inhalation action and facilitating the microphone 3 to trigger the aerosol generating device to work.

[0039] As shown in the Figure 3 to the Figure 4 accompanying drawings, when the user sucks the mouthpiece 4, external air enters from the air intake hole 11, passes through the first through hole 52 and the air intake groove 61, and then passes through the microphone 3. When the microphone 3 senses the airflow passing through, that is, the user's inhalation action, it will send a signal to the control panel 6. At this time, the external air continues to flow along the accommodation cavity 51, the connection groove 54, the second accommodation cavity 53, the communication hole 12, and the air circulation space 93 and then reaches the atomization component 2. The control panel 6 receives the signal from the microphone 3 and controls the operation of the atomization component 2, causing the atomization component 2 to generate aerosol, which is mixed with the external air and inhaled into the user's mouth through the mouthpiece 4.
