[0064] Please refer to Figure 1-Figure 3 An embodiment of the present application provides an aerosol generating device, including a power supply component 1 and an atomizer component 2 having a plurality of atomizers 21. The atomizer component 2 is configured to be rotatable relative to the power supply component 1 so as to transform the atomizer 21 electrically connected to the power supply component 1 through rotation. Based on this, the plurality of atomizers 21 can be arranged in a ring shape.
[0065] As used herein, "plurality" refers to two or more. Figure 7 In the illustrated embodiment, the atomization assembly 2 includes four atomizers 21 in total, and the four atomizers 21 are arranged in a ring shape.
[0066] At least two of the multiple atomizers 21 can be used to contain different liquid matrices, which include solutions with different flavors or solutions with different ingredients and proportions. Of course, in some embodiments, all the atomizers 21 may contain the same liquid matrix.
[0067] Wherein, liquid matrix can comprise the liquid containing tobacco substance containing volatile tobacco flavor component, can also be the liquid comprising non-tobacco substance.Liquid matrix can comprise water, liquid medicine, solvent, ethanol, plant extract, spices, flavoring agent or vitamin mixture etc., and spices can comprise betel nut extract, menthol, European mint, green mint oil, various fruity fragrance components etc., but is not limited to this.Flavoring agent can comprise the composition that can provide various fragrance or local flavor to the user.Vitamin mixture can be the mixture that is mixed with at least one in vitamin A, vitamin B, vitamin C and vitamin E, but is not limited to this.Based on the different attributes of liquid matrix, aerosol generating device can be used for different fields, such as, medical treatment, electronic aerosol atomization etc.
[0068] The atomizer 21 includes a liquid cup 211 for accommodating a liquid matrix and an atomizing core in fluid communication with the liquid cup 211, the atomizing core is used to atomize the liquid matrix so that the liquid matrix produces an aerosol. The atomizing core may include an imbibition element and a heating element, the imbibition element may include a porous body or fiber, which can absorb the liquid matrix and can guide the liquid matrix into the atomization range of the heating element; the heating element is used to atomize at least part of the liquid matrix on the imbibition element to form an aerosol. The heating element can be combined with the imbibition element so that the heating element can form a whole with the heating element. In some embodiments, the liquid cup 211 has a liquid storage cotton, and the liquid matrix is adsorbed in the liquid storage cotton and thus retained in the liquid cup 211. Of course, the liquid storage cotton is optional and not mandatory.
[0069] At least a portion of the wall of the liquid cup 211 may be transparent, so that a user can observe the remaining amount of the liquid matrix inside the liquid cup 211 through the wall of the liquid cup 211 .
[0070] In one embodiment, the aerosol generating device further comprises a housing 6, and the atomizing assembly 2 can be disposed in the housing 6. At least a portion of the housing 6 has a window 61, and the window 61 comprises a lens or a through hole, so that the liquid cup 211 can be observed visually through the window 61. When at least a portion of the wall of the liquid cup 211 is transparent, the remaining amount of the liquid matrix inside the liquid cup 211 can be observed visually through the housing and the liquid cup 211 in sequence. The window 61 can have one or more windows. Figure 1 In the illustrated embodiment, there is one window 61, and the window 61 is arranged corresponding to the atomizer 21 electrically connected to the power supply component 1, so that the remaining amount of the liquid matrix in the atomizer 21 can be observed to determine whether the atomizer 21 electrically connected to the power supply component 1 needs to be replaced.
[0071] Each of the above-mentioned atomizers 21 may also include an airway tube, which is in fluid communication with the atomizing core, and the airway tube is used to transmit the aerosol. In one example, the atomizer 21 may have an atomizing compartment in fluid communication with the liquid cup 211, the atomizing core 112 is accommodated in the atomizing compartment, and the airway tube is in fluid communication with the atomizing compartment; alternatively, in another example, at least a portion of the atomizing core 112 is arranged in the airway tube.
[0072] Each of the above-mentioned atomizers 21 may also include a power-taking electrode 212. The heating element generates heat by drawing electricity from the power-taking electrode 212. The power-taking electrode 212 may include a positive electrode and a negative electrode. The positive electrode and the negative electrode may be electrically connected to opposite ends of the heating element, respectively.
[0073] The power supply component 1 includes a power supply electrode 11. When the atomizer 21 is electrically connected to the power supply component 1, the power-taking electrode 211 of the atomizer 21 is electrically connected to the power supply electrode 11 of the power supply component 1. Specifically, the power supply electrode 11 includes a positive electrode and a negative electrode. When the power-taking electrode 211 of the atomizer 21 is electrically connected to the power supply electrode 11 of the power supply component 1, the positive electrode and the negative electrode of the atomizer 21 are respectively abutted against the positive electrode and the negative electrode of the power supply component 1, so that the electrical connection between the atomizer 21 and the power supply component 1 is disconnectable, so as to facilitate the replacement of the atomizer 21 electrically connected to the power supply component 1.
[0074] In some embodiments, the number of power supply electrodes 1 is less than the number of atomizers 21, so that the power supply electrodes 11 cannot be electrically connected to all atomizers 21 in the atomizer assembly 2 at the same time. Preferably, there is one and only one group of power supply electrodes 11, so the power supply assembly 1 can only be electrically connected to one atomizer 21 in the atomizer assembly 2 at the same time.
[0075] In one embodiment, reference may be made to Figure 3 The aerosol generating device also includes a power supply and a controller, wherein the two electrodes of the power supply are electrically connected to the positive electrode and the negative electrode of the power supply component 1, respectively, and the controller is used to control the power output of the power supply, for example, to control the power supply to provide power to the power supply component 1, and then to provide power to the atomizer 21 electrically connected to the power supply component 1, so that the atomizer 21 atomizes the liquid matrix to generate aerosol. The controller can also control other operations of the aerosol generating device, such as controlling the identification of the identity information of the atomizer 21 electrically connected to the power supply component 1 and adjusting the power output of the power supply to the power supply component 1 based on the identity information, or, for example, controlling the sensory prompters such as lights, motors, and players in the aerosol generating device to generate sensory prompt signals, etc. Among them, the power supply can include any suitable battery, for example, a rechargeable battery, and of course, a disposable battery.
[0076] In such Figure 3 In the embodiment shown, the power supply and the circuit board carrying the controller are arranged in the housing, and the power supply is arranged on one side of the atomizer assembly 2 in the horizontal direction, so as to be arranged in parallel with the atomizer assembly 2. Of course, in other embodiments, the power supply can also be arranged on one side of the atomizer assembly in the longitudinal direction, so as to be arranged in the longitudinal direction with the atomizer assembly. Figure 3 The shell arranged on the periphery of the power source and the shell 6 arranged on the periphery of the atomization assembly 2 may not be the same shell.
[0077] In one embodiment, reference may be made to Figure 2 and Figure 4The aerosol generating device also includes a driving component 3, which includes an operating part 31 and a first tooth foot 33 which is linked to the operating part 31, and the first tooth foot 33 is configured to move between a first position and a second position under the drive of the operating part 31; wherein, the power supply component 1 or the atomizer component 2 includes a first inclined surface 2211, and in at least part of the stroke when the first tooth foot 33 moves from the first position to the second position, the first tooth foot 33 abuts against the first inclined surface 2211 and slides along the first inclined surface 2211, and the first inclined surface 2211 therefore rotates so that the first tooth foot 33 can continue to move toward the second position, so that the power supply component 1 or the atomizer component 2 having the first inclined surface 2211 rotates, and the power supply component 1 and the atomizer component 2 therefore rotate relative to each other, thereby realizing the transformation of the atomizer 21 in the atomizer component 2 which is electrically connected to the power supply component 1.
[0078] In the first aspect of the present application, the first inclined surface 2211 is a component of the atomizer assembly 2, so that during at least a portion of the travel of the first tooth foot 33 from the first position to the second position, the first tooth foot 33 drives the atomizer assembly 2 to rotate. Preferably, during the rotation of the atomizer assembly 2, the power supply assembly 1 remains stationary. Of course, during the rotation of the atomizer assembly 2, the power supply assembly 1 may also rotate at a different speed or in a different direction than the atomizer assembly 2.
[0079] In the second aspect of the present application, the first inclined surface is a component of the power supply assembly, so that during at least a portion of the travel of the first tooth foot from the first position to the second position, the first tooth foot drives the power supply assembly to rotate. Preferably, during the rotation of the power supply assembly, the atomizer assembly remains stationary. Of course, during the rotation of the power supply assembly, the atomizer assembly may also rotate at a different speed or in a different direction than the power supply assembly.
[0080] Since the second aspect has roughly the same principles and ideas as the first aspect, the components, structures, shapes or materials that can realize the relative rotation of the atomization component and the power supply component in the first aspect can also be applied to the second aspect. This application will focus on the first aspect and only briefly describe the second aspect. The following is mainly a detailed description of the first aspect.
[0081] In one embodiment, reference may be made to Figure 2 and Figure 3 The aerosol generating device further includes a reset component 4, which is used to reset the first tooth foot 33 from the second position to the first position, so that the operating part 31 can drive the first tooth foot 33 to move from the first position to the second position again, and the first tooth foot 33 can therefore drive the atomization component 2 to rotate again.
[0082] Specifically, the reset assembly 4 includes an actuating member 41 movable between a third position and a fourth position. The actuating member 41 is linked with the first tooth foot 33 so that the first tooth foot 33 is reset to the first position during at least part of the travel of the actuating member 41 from the fourth position to the third position.
[0083] The reset component 4 may further include an elastic member 42, one end of the elastic member 42 is connected to the action member 41, and the other end is connected to the atomizer assembly 2 or the power supply assembly 1, or the other end is connected to other fixing members, so that the elastic member 42 can be deformed during the movement of the action member 41 between the third position and the fourth position. The elastic member 42 is used to provide elastic force to keep the action member 41 in the third position, and under the action of the elastic member 42, the action member 41 can automatically move from the fourth position to the third position, so that the first tooth foot 33 can automatically reset from the second position to the first position.
[0084] In one embodiment, during at least a portion of the travel of the action member 41 moving from the fourth position to the third position, the action member 41 can interfere with the atomizer assembly 2 and drive the atomizer assembly 2 to continue rotating along the original rotation direction. For example, during at least a portion of the travel of the first tooth foot 33 moving from the first position to the second position, the atomizer assembly 2 rotates in the clockwise direction by a first angle θ1, and during at least a portion of the travel of the action member 41 moving from the fourth position to the third position, the atomizer assembly 2 continues to rotate in the clockwise direction and rotates by a second angle θ2; therefore, when the operating portion 31 is operated once, the first tooth foot 33 moves from the first position to the second position, and then resets from the second position to the first position under the action of the action member 41, and during this process, the total angle θ of the atomizer assembly 2 rotating in the clockwise direction is the sum of the first angle θ1 and the second angle θ2; in other words, when the operating portion 31 is operated once, the angle θ of the atomizer assembly 2 rotating relative to the power supply assembly 1 is the sum of the first angle θ1 and the second angle θ2.
[0085] By rotating the atomizer assembly 2 by the second angle θ2 during at least part of the travel of the actuating member 41 from the fourth position to the third position, the first angle θ1 and the extending length of the first inclined surface 2211 can be reduced, thereby shortening the travel trajectory between the first position and the second position, which is beneficial to miniaturization of the aerosol generating device.
[0086] Based on this, as an example, θ=360° / n, n is the number of atomizers 21, so that when the operating part 31 is operated once, the atomizer 21 in the atomizer assembly 2 electrically connected to the power supply assembly 1 can be changed. For example, when there are four atomizers 21 arranged in a ring, the phase angle between two adjacent atomizers 21 is 90°, so the atomizer assembly 2 needs to be rotated N*90° relative to the power supply assembly 1 to change the atomizer 21 electrically connected to the power supply assembly 1, where N=1, 2 or 3; and θ=90°, then when the operating part 31 is operated once, the atomizer 21 in the atomizer assembly 2 electrically connected to the power supply assembly 1 can be changed.
[0087] Furthermore, the first angle θ1 may be greater than the second angle θ2. Of course, the first angle θ1 may also be less than or equal to the second angle θ2.
[0088] As an example, see Figure 2 and Figure 5 The atomizer assembly 2 also includes a second inclined surface 2212, and a second tooth foot 43 is provided on the actuating member 41. The second tooth foot 43 abuts against the second inclined surface 2212 and slides along the second inclined surface 2212 during at least part of the stroke of the actuating member 41 moving from the fourth position to the third position. The second inclined surface 2212 is therefore rotated so that the second tooth foot 43 can continue to move toward the third position, so that the power supply assembly 1 or the atomizer assembly 2 having the second inclined surface 2212 continues to rotate in the original rotation direction. Therefore, the power supply assembly 1 and the atomizer assembly 2 continue to rotate relative to each other in the original rotation direction, thereby realizing the transformation of the atomizer 21 electrically connected to the power supply assembly 1 in the atomizer assembly 2.
[0089] In one embodiment, reference may be made to Figure 4 and Figure 5, the inclined plane length of the first inclined plane 2211 is different from the inclined plane length of the second inclined plane 2212. As an example, the inclined plane length of the second inclined plane 2212 is greater than the inclined plane length of the first inclined plane 2211, and the length of the track along which the second tooth foot 43 slides along the second inclined plane 2212 can therefore be greater than the length of the track along which the first tooth foot 33 slides along the first inclined plane 2211, so that the first angle θ1 can therefore be greater than the second angle θ2; as an example, the inclined plane length of the second inclined plane 2212 is less than the inclined plane length of the first inclined plane 2211, and the length of the track along which the second tooth foot 43 slides along the second inclined plane 2212 can therefore be less than the length of the track along which the first tooth foot 33 slides along the first inclined plane 2211, so that the first angle θ1 can therefore be less than the second angle θ2. When the first inclined surface 2211 includes one inclined surface, the inclined surface length of the first inclined surface 2211 refers to the track extension length of the only inclined surface in the first inclined surface 2211, and when the first inclined surface 2211 includes multiple inclined surfaces, the inclined surface length of the first inclined surface 2211 refers to the track extension length of a single inclined surface in the first inclined surface 2211. Similarly, the inclined surface length of the second inclined surface 2212 is also the same.
[0090] In one embodiment, reference may be made to Figure 4 and Figure 5 The first inclined surface 2211 and the second inclined surface 2212 are staggered in the direction of rotation of the atomizer assembly 2, so that after the first tooth foot 33 slides along the first inclined surface 2211 to rotate the atomizer assembly 2 by a preset angle, a second inclined surface 2212 can be exactly corresponding to the second tooth foot 43, so that during at least part of the stroke of the actuating member 41 moving from the fourth position to the third position, the second tooth foot 43 can abut against the second inclined surface 2212 and slide along the second inclined surface 2212, thereby driving the atomizer assembly 2 to rotate.
[0091] Among them, when the first tooth foot 33 abuts against the first inclined surface 2211, the second tooth foot 43 can be spaced from the second inclined surface 2212, so that when the first tooth foot 33 drives the atomizer assembly 2 or the power supply assembly 1 with the first inclined surface 2211 to rotate, it can prevent the action member 41 from hindering the rotation of the atomizer assembly 2 or the power supply assembly 1, and can also prevent the elastic member 42 connected to the action member 41 from twisting. When the second tooth foot 43 abuts against the second inclined surface 2212, the first tooth foot 33 can be spaced from the first inclined surface 2211, so that when the second tooth foot 43 drives the atomizer assembly 2 or the power supply assembly 1 with the second inclined surface 2212 to rotate, it can prevent the first tooth foot 33 from hindering the rotation of the atomizer assembly 2 or the power supply assembly 1, and can also prevent the operating member 31 connected to the first tooth foot 33 from rotating.
[0092] In one embodiment, reference may be made to Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 8The driving assembly 3 further includes a driving rod 32 connected to the operating portion 31, the first tooth foot 33 is arranged on the driving rod 32, and the driving rod 32 is connected to the actuating member 4, so that in at least a part of the travel of the first tooth foot 33 moving from the first position to the second position, the driving rod 32 pushes the actuating member 41 to move from the third position to the fourth position. Therefore, the actuating member 41 can be moved from the third position to the fourth position by the operating portion 31, and in at least a part of the travel of the actuating member 41 moving from the fourth position to the third position, the actuating member 41 can push the driving rod 32 to move the first tooth foot 33 from the second position to the first position, and the driving rod 32 can drive the operating portion 31 to reset.
[0093] Furthermore, during at least a portion of the travel of the first tooth foot 33 moving from the first position to the second position, the driving rod 32 drives the actuating member 41 to gradually move away from the second inclined surface 2212. When the first tooth foot 33 is located at the second position, the actuating member 41 may be located at the fourth position, so that the second tooth foot 43 is spaced from the second inclined surface 2212. During at least a portion of the travel of the actuating member 41 moving from the fourth position to the third position, the actuating member 41 drives the driving rod 32 to gradually move the first tooth foot 33 away from the first inclined surface 2211. When the second tooth foot 43 is located at the third position, the first tooth foot 33 may be located at the first position, so that the first tooth foot 33 is spaced from the first inclined surface 2211.
[0094] In such Figure 8 and Fig. 9 In the embodiment shown, a portion of the driving rod 32 is nested with the actuating member 41, and the driving rod 32 and the actuating member 41 are fixed to each other by a snap connection. Specifically, a snap protrusion 321 is provided on the driving rod 32, and a snap groove 411 is provided on the actuating member 41. When a portion of the driving rod 32 is nested with the actuating member 41, the snap protrusion 321 is snapped in the snap groove 411, thereby preventing the driving rod 32 from being separated from the actuating member 41.
[0095] In one embodiment, the atomizer assembly 2 also includes an interference portion 221, and the first inclined surface 2211 and the second inclined surface 2212 are both formed on the interference portion 221. Therefore, the first tooth foot 33 interferes with the interference portion 221 by sliding along the first inclined surface 2211 during at least a portion of the stroke when the first tooth foot 33 moves from the first position to the second position, and interferes with the interference portion 221 by sliding along the second inclined surface 2212 during at least a portion of the stroke when the actuating member 41 moves from the fourth position to the third position.
[0096] As an example, see Figure 4 and Figure 5, the first tooth foot 33 and the second tooth foot 43 are located at opposite sides of the interference portion 221, and the first inclined surface 2211 and the second inclined surface 2212 are formed at opposite sides of the interference portion 221. In this example, the first inclined surface 2211 and the second inclined surface 2212 are inclined in opposite directions, so that the rotation direction of the atomizer assembly 2 when the first tooth foot 33 slides along the first inclined surface 2211 can be the same as the rotation direction of the atomizer assembly 2 when the second tooth foot 43 slides along the second inclined surface 2212.
[0097] As an example, see Figure 5 The interference portion 221 further includes a second stop surface 2214, which is used to abut against the second tooth foot 43 located at the third position, so that the second tooth foot 43 cannot continue to move along the second inclined surface 2212 in the original direction and cannot change its position in the longitudinal direction along the original moving direction when it moves to the third position. The second tooth foot 43 can be roughly wedge-shaped, and the shape formed by the second stop surface 2214 and the second inclined surface 2212 can also be wedge-shaped. When the second tooth foot 43 is located at the third position, the two opposite surfaces on the second tooth foot 43 can be respectively arranged toward the second inclined surface 2212 and the second stop surface 2214. The second stop surface 2214 and the second inclined surface 2212 can have different slopes, and the slope of the second stop surface 2214 can be greater than the slope of the second inclined surface 2212, and the second stop surface 2214 can be roughly parallel to the longitudinal direction.
[0098] Further, the second inclined surface 2212 includes a plurality of inclined surfaces, which are inclined in the same direction and distributed in a circle. A second stop surface 2214 is provided between two adjacent inclined surfaces in the second inclined surface 2212. When the first tooth foot 33 is located at the first position, the second tooth foot 43 corresponds to one inclined surface in the second inclined surface 2212, and abuts against the second stop surface 2214 matched with the inclined surface. In at least a part of the stroke when the first tooth foot 33 moves from the first position to the second position, the action member 41 is disengaged from the third position, and the atomization assembly 2 rotates the first angle θ1, so that the second tooth foot 43 corresponds to another adjacent inclined surface. In at least a part of the stroke when the action member 41 moves from the fourth position to the third position, the second tooth foot 43 abuts against another adjacent inclined surface and slides along the other adjacent inclined surface, so that the atomization assembly 2 continues to rotate along the original rotation direction.
[0099] The number of the second tooth feet 43 can be one and only one, and preferably there are multiple second tooth feet 43. The multiple second tooth feet 43 can abut against different inclined surfaces of the second inclined surface 2212 at the same time, and can slide along different inclined surfaces of the second inclined surface 2212 at the same time.
[0100] When the second inclined surface 2212 includes a plurality of inclined surfaces inclined in the same direction and distributed around, each time the atomizer assembly 2 rotates through a first angle θ1, the inclined surface in the second inclined surface 2212 corresponding to the second tooth foot 43 changes once.
[0101] When the second stop surface 2214 between the two adjacent inclined surfaces of the second inclined surface 2212 abuts the second tooth foot 43, the interference part 221 locks the action member 41, so that the interference part 221 and the action member 41 cannot rotate relative to each other, and at the same time, the atomizer assembly 2 and the power supply assembly 1 cannot rotate relative to each other. Therefore, the third position can also be called the locked position. When the second tooth foot 43 is separated from the second stop surface 2214, the locking of the action member 41 by the interference part 221 is released, so that the interference part 221 and the action member 41 can rotate relative to each other. Therefore, under the interaction between the first tooth foot 33 and the interference part 221, the atomizer assembly 2 with the interference part 22 can rotate the first angle θ1, so that the second tooth foot 43 passes over the second stop surface 2214 and corresponds to another adjacent second stop surface 2214. When the action member 41 is in the fourth position, the action member 41 is spaced apart from the second stop surface 2214. Therefore, the fourth position can also be called the non-locked position.
[0102] Therefore, in some embodiments, under the drive of the operating part 31, the action member 41 moves from the locked position to the unlocked position. When the action member 41 is in the locked position, it can interlock with the interference part 221, so that the power supply assembly 1 or the atomizer assembly 2 having the interference part 221 cannot rotate relative to the action member 41, and the power supply assembly 1 and the atomizer assembly 2 cannot rotate relative to each other. In at least part of the stroke of the action member 4 moving from the unlocked position to the locked position, the action member 4 can drive the power supply assembly 1 or the atomizer assembly 2 having the interference part 221 to rotate, so that the power supply assembly 1 and the atomizer assembly 2 rotate relative to each other. In this embodiment, the operating part 31 is mainly used to drive the action member 41 to move from the locked position to the unlocked position to release the lock. In the process of the action member 41 moving from the locked position to the unlocked position, it is preferred that the atomizer assembly 2 and the power supply assembly 1 can rotate relative to each other, but this relative rotation is optional and not mandatory. And in this embodiment, the elastic member 42 is used to automatically move the actuating member 41 from the unlocked position to the locked position, and the actuating member 41 interferes with the interference portion 221 under the drive of the elastic member 42, so that the atomizer assembly 2 or the power supply assembly 1 having the interference portion 221 rotates, and the atomizer assembly 2 and the power supply assembly 1 rotate relative to each other in a hidden manner.
[0103] As an example, see Figure 4The interference portion 221 further includes a first stop surface 2213, which is used to abut against the first tooth foot 33 located at the second position, so that the first tooth foot 33 cannot continue to move along the first inclined surface 2211 and cannot change its position in the longitudinal direction along the original moving direction when it moves to the second position. The first tooth foot 33 is roughly wedge-shaped, and the shape formed by the combination of the first stop surface 2213 and the first inclined surface 2211 can also be wedge-shaped. When the first tooth foot 33 is located at the second position, the two opposite surfaces on the first tooth foot 33 can be respectively arranged toward the first inclined surface 2211 and the first stop surface 2213. The first stop surface 2213 and the first inclined surface 2211 can have roughly the same slope, and the first stop surface 2213 and the first inclined surface 2211 can be arranged axially symmetrically or plane-symmetrically.
[0104] Further, the first inclined surface 2211 may include a plurality of inclined surfaces inclined in the same direction and distributed around. A first stop surface 2213 is provided between two adjacent inclined surfaces in the first inclined surface 2211. When the second tooth foot 43 is located at the third position, the first tooth foot 33 corresponds to one inclined surface in the first inclined surface 2211 and abuts against the first stop surface 2213 matched with the inclined surface. In at least a part of the stroke when the second tooth foot 43 moves from the fourth position to the third position, the first tooth foot 33 is disengaged from the second position, and the atomizer assembly 2 rotates the second angle θ2, so that the first tooth foot 33 corresponds to another adjacent inclined surface, so that in the next operation of the operating part 31, in at least a part of the stroke when the first tooth foot 33 moves from the first position to the second position, the first tooth foot 33 abuts against the other adjacent inclined surface and slides along the other adjacent inclined surface, so that the atomizer assembly 2 rotates.
[0105] The number of the first tooth foot 33 can be one and only one, preferably there are multiple first tooth feet 33, and the multiple first tooth feet 33 can abut against different inclined surfaces of the first inclined surface 2211 at the same time, and can slide simultaneously along different inclined surfaces of the first inclined surface 2211. The inclined surface corresponding to the first tooth foot 33 in the first inclined surface 2211 can be changed once each time the atomizer assembly 2 rotates a second angle θ2.
[0106] In one embodiment, reference may be made to Figure 4 and Figure 5 The aerosol generating device includes a bracket 22 for holding the plurality of atomizers 21 , and the interference portion 221 is a component of the bracket 22 , so at least one of the first tooth foot 33 and the actuating member 41 can drive the bracket 22 to rotate.
[0107] For further information, please refer to Figure 2 and Figure 4-Figure 6The bracket 22 also includes a central tube 222 , and a plurality of atomizers 21 are arranged around the central tube 222 . The rotation axis of the atomization assembly 2 coincides with the central axis of the central tube 222 .
[0108] The actuating member 41 is movably disposed inside the center tube 222, and during at least a portion of the travel of the actuating member 41 moving between the third position and the fourth position, the actuating member 41 can move inside the center tube 222 along the center axis of the center tube 222, and the center tube 222 can guide the movement of the actuating member 41; and / or, the first tooth foot 33 is movably disposed inside the center tube 222, and during at least a portion of the travel of the first tooth foot 33 moving between the first position and the second position, the first tooth foot 33 can move inside the center tube 222 along the center axis of the center tube 222, and the center tube 222 can guide the movement of the first tooth foot 33.
[0109] In one embodiment, the center tube 222 extends longitudinally, the first position and the second position are staggered in the longitudinal direction, the third position and the fourth position are staggered in the longitudinal direction, the second position and the third position may be staggered in the longitudinal direction, and the first position, the second position, the third position and the fourth position may be arranged in sequence in the longitudinal direction.
[0110] The actuating member 41 can move in a spiral motion between the third position and the fourth position, and preferably the actuating member 41 moves in a straight line along the longitudinal direction between the third position and the fourth position. The first tooth foot 33 can move in a spiral motion between the first position and the second position, and preferably the first tooth foot 33 moves in a straight line along the longitudinal direction between the first position and the second position.
[0111] In one embodiment, reference may be made to Figure 4 and Figure 5 , the interference portion 221 is disposed inside the central tube 222 , so that the second position and the third position are both in the central tube 222 .
[0112] The bracket 22 may further include a plurality of partition plates 223, which are radially connected to the central tube 22, and a receiving space 224 is provided between two adjacent partition plates 223, and each receiving space 2224 holds an atomizer 21. The bracket 22 may further include a bracket 25, which is used to support the bottom of the atomizer 21 so that the atomizer 21 can be held in the corresponding receiving space 224.
[0113] In such Figure 2In the illustrated embodiment, the atomizer assembly 2 further includes a fixing member 23, at least a portion of which is disposed in the central tube 222, and the fixing member 23 can be snap-connected to the central tube 222, so that the fixing member 23 can remain relatively stationary with the central tube 222 or with the bracket 22. The elastic member 42 is connected to the fixing member 23, and the actuating member 41 can be rotatably connected to the fixing member 23. Preferably, the elastic member 42 includes a spring, which can be spirally disposed on the periphery of the actuating member 41. Figure 2 In the illustrated embodiment, after the resetting assembly 4 is assembled into the interior of the central tube 222 , the fixing member 23 is fixedly connected to the central tube 222 .
[0114] In one embodiment, reference may be made to Figure 1-Figure 3 The aerosol generating device further includes a nozzle assembly 5 which is independent of the driving assembly 3. The nozzle assembly 5 includes a nozzle 51. The user can hold the nozzle 51 in his mouth, so as to inhale the aerosol generated by the atomizer 21 in fluid communication with the nozzle assembly 5 through the nozzle 51. The nozzle assembly 5 can be in fluid communication with only part of the atomizers 21 in the atomization assembly 2. For example, the nozzle assembly 5 can be in fluid communication with only the atomizers 21 in the atomization assembly 2 which are electrically connected to the power supply assembly 1. The atomization assembly 2 is configured to be rotatable relative to the nozzle assembly 5, so as to change the atomizer 21 in fluid communication with the nozzle assembly 5 by rotating relative to the nozzle assembly 5.
[0115] Based on this, as an example, you can refer to Figure 2 , the atomizer assembly 2 is rotatably disposed in the housing 6, and the nozzle assembly 5 is connected to the housing 6. When the driving assembly 3 and the reset assembly 4 drive the atomizer assembly 2 to rotate, the atomizer assembly 2 can rotate in the housing 6, while the nozzle assembly 5 and the power supply assembly 1 do not rotate relative to the housing 6, so that the atomizer assembly 2 can rotate synchronously relative to the power supply assembly 1 and the nozzle assembly 5. Therefore, through a single operation of the operating part 31, the atomizer 21 electrically connected to the power supply assembly 1 can be changed, and the atomizer 21 in fluid communication with the nozzle assembly 5 can be changed at the same time, and the atomizer 21 electrically connected to the power supply assembly 1 can be in fluid communication with the nozzle assembly 5 at the same time. In this example, there may be no connection between the power supply assembly 1 and the nozzle assembly 3.
[0116] Alternatively, as an example, the power supply assembly 1 and the nozzle assembly 5 are connected so that the power supply assembly 1 and the nozzle assembly 5 can remain synchronized in the direction of rotation of the atomizer assembly 2, and when the drive assembly 3 and the reset assembly 4 drive the atomizer assembly 2 to rotate, the atomizer assembly 2 can rotate synchronously relative to the power supply assembly 1 and the nozzle assembly 5.
[0117] If it is the second aspect, the nozzle assembly 5 can be connected to the power supply assembly 1. When the driving assembly 3 and the reset assembly 4 drive the power supply assembly 1 to rotate, the power supply assembly 1 and the nozzle assembly 4 can rotate synchronously relative to the housing 6, or can rotate synchronously relative to the atomization assembly 2.
[0118] It should be noted that, in other embodiments, the suction nozzle is fluidically connected to all atomizers in the atomizer assembly at the same time, and the suction nozzle assembly is connected to the atomizer assembly, so that the suction nozzle assembly and the atomizer assembly can move synchronously or be stationary synchronously.
[0119] In one embodiment, at least a portion of the operating portion 31 is exposed outside the housing 6 for user operation. The user can push the operating portion 31 by pressing or sliding the operating portion 31, so that the operating portion 31 drives the first tooth foot 33 and the action member 41 to move through the driving rod 32. Figure 2 In the illustrated embodiment, the operating portion 31 and the suction nozzle assembly 5 are located on opposite sides of the housing 6. In this embodiment, the user can push the operating portion 31 by pressing the operating portion 31. Preferably, when the user presses the operating portion 31, the operating portion 31 can be longitudinally displaced or can move in a straight line in the longitudinal direction, so that the longitudinal distance between the operating portion 31 and the suction nozzle assembly 5 is reduced, and the first tooth foot 33 is thus moved from the first position to the second position, and the actuating member 41 can be moved from the third position to the fourth position accordingly. In other embodiments, at least part of the operating portion 31 is exposed from the side wall of the housing 6 and can slide longitudinally relative to the housing 6, so that the user pushes the operating portion 31 longitudinally, so that the longitudinal distance between the operating portion 31 and the suction nozzle assembly 5 is reduced.
[0120] It should be noted that the independence of the nozzle assembly and the driving assembly is optional but not mandatory. For example, in one embodiment, the operating portion includes a nozzle, and the nozzle is in fluid communication with at least one atomizer in the atomizer assembly. Therefore, the user can push the nozzle to move the first tooth foot from the first position to the second position, so that the atomizer assembly or the power supply assembly rotates, and the atomizer assembly and the power supply assembly rotate relative to each other to change the atomizer electrically connected to the power supply assembly.
[0121] Furthermore, the power supply assembly and the atomization assembly are arranged in the longitudinal direction, and the first tooth foot is configured to be movable in the longitudinal direction between a first position and a second position, so that the first tooth foot can move in a straight line between the first position and the second position. Wherein, the power supply assembly is configured to be movable in the longitudinal direction relative to the atomization assembly, for example, the power supply assembly is movably arranged in the housing, and can be moved in the longitudinal direction in the housing, and the longitudinal spacing between the power supply assembly and the atomization assembly is changed by the longitudinal movement of the power supply assembly in the housing. When the longitudinal spacing between the power supply assembly and the atomization assembly is large, the abutment force between the power supply electrode and the atomization assembly is reduced or there is no contact between the power supply electrode and the atomization assembly, thereby reducing the friction force borne by the power supply electrode when the atomization assembly and the power supply assembly rotate relative to each other, which is beneficial to reduce the wear on the power supply electrode and prevent the power supply electrode from deforming.
[0122] Furthermore, the power supply assembly is arranged in linkage with the suction nozzle or with the driving rod. When the user pushes the suction nozzle, the first tooth foot moves longitudinally from the first position to the second position, and at the same time, the longitudinal position of the power supply assembly changes, so that the longitudinal spacing between the power supply assembly and the atomizer assembly increases. When the longitudinal position of the power supply assembly changes, the first tooth foot drives the atomizer assembly to rotate, thereby pushing the suction nozzle. While the atomizer assembly and the power supply assembly rotate relative to each other, the longitudinal spacing between the atomizer assembly and the power supply assembly gradually increases. When the reset assembly resets the suction nozzle, the actuating member drives the atomizer assembly to continue rotating in the original rotation direction, and the longitudinal spacing between the atomizer assembly and the power supply assembly gradually decreases. When the actuating member returns to the third position, the suction nozzle is reset, and at the same time, the power supply electrode of the power supply assembly abuts against the power supply electrode of the corresponding atomizer. Preferably, the power supply electrode of the power supply assembly elastically abuts against the power supply electrode of the corresponding atomizer.
[0123] In one embodiment, reference may be made to Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Fig.10 The first tooth foot 33 can drive the atomizer assembly 2 to rotate. The power supply assembly 1 includes a mounting seat 12, a power supply electrode 11 arranged on the mounting seat 12, and a through hole 13 opened on the mounting seat 12. The power supply electrode 11 is detachably electrically connected to an atomizer 21 in the atomizer assembly 2. The inner wall of the through hole 13 includes an anti-rotation stop wall 131. A part of the driving rod 32 interferes with the anti-rotation stop wall 131 in the through hole 13 to prevent the driving rod 32 from rotating relative to the power supply assembly 1 when the first tooth foot 33 moves between the first position and the second position, so that the first tooth foot 33 moves in a straight line between the first position and the second position.
[0124] Furthermore, the driving rod 32 has a convex strip 34, a part of which is located in the through hole 13 and interferes with the anti-rotation stop wall 131, and the end of the convex strip 34 forms a first tooth foot 33. When there are multiple first tooth feet 33, there are multiple convex strips 34. Figure 7-Figure 10 In the illustrated embodiment, there are four convex strips, and the through hole 13 is substantially a cross hole.
[0125] In such Figure 2 In the illustrated embodiment, the power supply assembly 1 is disposed between the operating portion 31 and the first tooth leg 33. In other embodiments, the operating portion 31 may be located between the power supply assembly 1 and the first tooth leg 33.
[0126] In such Figure 3 and Fig. 9 In the illustrated embodiment, the power supply assembly 1 further comprises an air hole 13 disposed on the mounting seat 12, and the air hole 13 fluidly connects the outside and the atomizer 21 electrically connected to the power supply electrode 11. The air hole 13 may be disposed between two power supply electrodes 11.
[0127] In some embodiments, the user operates the operating part 31 of the driving component 3, so that one or more components (including the operating part 31) in the driving component 3 can be linearly moved from the first position to the second position. The reset component 4 can drive a component or multiple parts of the driving component 4 that deviates from the initial position in the linear direction to reset based on the linkage setting between the one or more components in the driving component 3, for example, the operating part 31 and / or the first tooth foot 33 return to the first position. In the process of the user completing an operation on the operating part 31, that is, in the process of one or more components of the driving component 3 linearly moving from the first position to the second position, and then resetting to the initial position along the reset stroke, at least one of the driving component 3 and the reset component 4 can drive the atomization component 2 to rotate relative to the power supply component 1. Among them, linear movement refers to linear movement, and the linear direction is the linear direction.
[0128] For example, the reset component 4 can cooperate with the atomizer component 2 during the reset stroke to drive the atomizer component 2 to rotate; when the operating part 31 is in the first position, the first atomizer in the atomizer component 2 is electrically connected to the power supply electrode 11, and the first atomizer can therefore atomize the liquid matrix to produce aerosol when the power supply provides power; when the operating part 31 accepts user manipulation and moves from the first position to the second position and is driven by the reset component 4 to return to the first position again, the reset component 4 can drive the atomizer component 2 to rotate a predetermined angle, for example, a second angle θ2, so that the second atomizer in the atomizer component 2, which is different from the first atomizer, corresponds to the position of the power supply electrode 11 and maintains electrical connection, and the second atomizer can therefore atomize the liquid matrix to produce aerosol when the power supply provides power.
[0129] Preferably, when the user completes an operation on the operating portion, the driving assembly 3 and the resetting assembly 4 can both drive the atomizing assembly 2 to rotate relative to the power supply assembly 1 .
