And the "connection" and "coupling" mentioned in the present application, unless otherwise specified, both include direct and indirect connection (coupling).

[0025] The present application provides an electronic atomization device (hereinafter referred to as the atomization device), which can be used to heat and atomize a matrix to generate an aerosol that can be used.

[0026] It should be noted that the aerosol mentioned in the terms refers to a dispersion of solid particles or liquid particles in a gas. As used herein, "aerosol" generally refers to a substance that has been vaporized, atomized, in the form of a spray or jet, or otherwise converted from a solid or liquid form into an inhalable form containing suspended solid or liquid drug particles.

[0027] The atomization device designed in the present application mainly includes two parts, a main control component and an atomization structure. The main control component and the atomization structure can be connected in an up-and-down arrangement to form a liquid-injection type atomization device, which heats and atomizes the atomization matrix in the device's liquid storage chamber to form an aerosol that can be inhaled by the user. Or the main control component and the atomization structure are distributed left and right, and the atomization matrix inserted on the atomization structure is heated and atomized to form an aerosol that can be inhaled by the user. The design point of the present application mainly lies in the main control component part, so the atomization structure part will not be introduced in detail. The specific scheme is as follows:

[0028] Please refer to Figures 1 to 6 , the atomization device includes a housing 100, a base 200, a control board 300, and a button assembly 400. The base 200 is disposed at one end of the housing 100 and jointly forms the external contour structure of the atomization device with the housing 100, facilitating the use, movement, or carrying of the atomization device. And the base 200 and the housing 100 enclose to form an installation cavity 110, the control board 300 is disposed in the installation cavity 110, the control board 300 has a switch contact 310, and the button assembly 400 and the base 200 are an integrated structure, and the button assembly 400 corresponds to the switch contact 310.

[0029] The base 200 is detachably arranged at one end of the outer housing 100. By assembling the two, an installation space is formed therebetween, and this installation space can be used to accommodate the above-mentioned atomization structure and part of the main control components. Among them, the main control components include a battery (not shown in the figure), a control board 300, and a button assembly 400 integrally formed with the base 200. Through the button assembly 400, it can contact the switch contact 310 on the control board 300 to trigger the realization of the switch or other functions (such as adjustment functions). By integrating the design of the base 200 and the button assembly 400, the number of parts can be reduced, thereby reducing the tolerance accumulation between parts, improving the assembly accuracy, thus reducing jamming during the pressing of the button assembly 400, and improving the sensitivity and stability of contact with the switch contact 310. At the same time, the reduction in the number of parts can also reduce the assembly procedures. Only by assembling the base 200 with the outer housing 100 can the button assembly 400 be assembled, making the assembly fast and convenient, thereby improving the assembly efficiency and saving production and assembly costs.

[0030] In an embodiment, the base 200 is provided with a movable hole 210, and the movable hole 210 is matched with the button assembly 400; the button assembly 400 includes an elastic connecting member 410 and a trigger key 420. One end of the elastic connecting member 410 is an integral structure with the base 200, and the other end is suspended in the movable hole 210; the trigger key 420 is connected to the base 200 through the elastic connecting member 410; the elastic connecting member 410 is used to move in the direction close to the switch contact 310 under the pressing of the trigger key 420, so that the trigger key 420 contacts the switch contact 310; the elastic connecting member 410 is also used to drive the trigger key 420 to move in the direction away from the switch contact 310, so that the trigger key 420 is separated from the switch contact 310.

[0031] Please refer to Figure 4 , in an embodiment, the elastic connecting member 410 is a strip-shaped cantilever. One end of the strip-shaped cantilever is an integral structure with the base 200, and the other end is connected to the trigger key 420. And the trigger key 420 is a regular axisymmetric structure, and the elastic connecting member 410 is arranged on the central axis of the trigger key 420, so that the elastic restoring force and external acting force received by the trigger key 420 are uniform. The strip-shaped cantilever structure of the elastic connecting member 410 can simplify the structure of the entire button assembly 400, reduce tolerances, and ensure the normal (non-jamming) operation of the trigger key 420.

[0032] Please refer to Figure 3 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 , in an embodiment, the elastic connecting member 410 includes an elastic connecting portion 411 and a supporting portion 412. One end of the elastic connecting member 410 is connected to the base 200, and the other end is connected to the supporting portion 412; the trigger key 420 is connected to the supporting portion 412.

[0033] The trigger key 420 is connected to the elastic connection member 410 through the support portion 412, and is suspended in the movable hole 210 through the combined cooperation of the elastic connection member 410 and the support portion 412. When an external force presses the trigger key 420, it can drive the elastic connection member 410 to deform and move it in the direction close to the switch contact 310, and the trigger key 420 contacts the switch contact 310 to realize the switch or other functions (such as adjustment functions) of the key assembly 400; after the external force is cancelled, under the action of the elastic restoring force of the elastic connection member 410, it drives the trigger key 420 to move in the direction away from the switch contact 310, so that the trigger key 420 is separated from the switch contact 310, and thus a function of the key assembly 400 can be completed.

[0034] The elastic connection portion 411 is a strip-shaped cantilever. One end of the strip-shaped cantilever is an integral structure with the base 200, and the other end is connected to the support portion 412. The strip-shaped cantilever is suspended (hanging) in the movable hole 210. Since one end of the strip-shaped cantilever is suspended in the movable hole 210, and the trigger key 420 is arranged on the suspended end through the support portion 412, the trigger key 420 is suspended in the movable hole 210 and can move in the movable hole 210 under the action of an external force and an elastic restoring force.

[0035] In one embodiment, the support portion 412 is a ring structure, and the ring structure is arranged on the periphery of the trigger key 420 so that the trigger key 420 is suspended in the movable hole 210, and the elastic connection member 410 is connected to the ring structure. Through the ring structure, the periphery of the trigger key 420 can be wrapped to stably connect it to the support portion 412. At the same time, the hollow part of the ring structure ensures that when the trigger key 420 moves towards the switch contact 310, it can contact the switch contact 310.

[0036] In another embodiment, the support portion 412 can also be a U-shaped structure, and the U-shaped structure is arranged on the periphery of the trigger key 420 so that the trigger key 420 is suspended in the movable hole 210.

[0037] In one embodiment, the elastic connection member 410 includes at least one elastic connection portion 411. One end of the elastic connection portion 411 is connected to the support portion 412, and the other end is an integral structure with the base 200; the support portion 412 is a symmetric structure along the central axis of the elastic connection portion 411.

[0038] In one embodiment, the elastic connection member 410 includes two elastic connection portions 411, and the two elastic connection portions 411 are symmetrically arranged along the central axis of the support portion 412. One end of the elastic connection portion 411 is connected to the support portion 412, and the other end is an integral structure with the base 200. The two elastic connection portions 411 are symmetrically arranged, so that the elastic restoring force and acting force received by the support portion 412 are uniform, and the force application points are uniform when the trigger key 420 contacts the switch contact 310, ensuring the stability and uniformity of the contact connection.

[0039] Of course, in other embodiments, the support portion 412 can also be elastic, so as to be able to provide a greater amount of deformation, effectively ensuring the contact between the trigger key 420 and the switch contact 310, and the support portion 412 and the elastic connection portion 411 are integrally formed structures, further reducing the number of parts.

[0040] In one embodiment, the trigger key 420 includes a trigger surface 421 and a contact surface 422 which are oppositely arranged, and the contact surface 422 is arranged facing the switch contact 310; the trigger surface 421 is arranged facing away from the switch contact 310; the contact surface 422 protrudes from the support portion 412 along the direction from the trigger surface 421 to the contact surface 422, and under the pressing of the trigger surface 421, the contact surface 422 contacts the switch contact 310.

[0041] Specifically, based on the layout positions of the outer housing 100 and the base 200, the control board 300 is arranged in the installation cavity 110 between the outer housing 100 and the base 200. The trigger surface 421 is also the side surface of the trigger key 420 facing away from the control board 300, and the contact surface 422 is the side surface facing the control board 300. The trigger surface 421 protrudes from the side surface of the support portion 412 facing the control board 300, avoiding the contact between the support portion 412 and the control board 300 when pressing the trigger key 420, which affects the subsequent contact between the trigger surface 421 and the switch contact 310.

[0042] Furthermore, the trigger surface 421 is made of other insulating materials such as silicone or plastic. The trigger surface 421 can be made of a conductive material, and the circuit is conducted through the contact between the trigger surface 421 and the switch contact 310. Of course, the trigger surface 421 can also be made of an insulating material, and by contacting the switch contact 310, the switch contact 310 is driven to move to achieve position switching (such as a toggle switch), thereby realizing the function of the key assembly 400.

[0043] In one embodiment, a contact contact 423 protrudes on the trigger surface 421. Under the pressing of the trigger surface 421, the contact contact 423 contacts the switch contact 310, and the area of the contact contact 423 is not less than the area of the switch contact 310.

[0044] In one embodiment, the elastic connecting member 410 and the trigger key 420 are independent parts with different functions and need to be made of different materials. For the convenience of processing, the two can be processed separately. For the convenience of assembling the two, a connecting member is provided between the support portion 412 and the trigger key 420. One end of the connecting member is connected to the trigger key 420 and the other end is connected to the support portion 412. Through the arrangement of the connecting member, the indirect connection between the trigger key 420 and the support portion 412 can be realized, the connection method is simple, and it is also convenient for the independent processing of the elastic connecting member 410 and the trigger key 420.

[0045] Specifically, in order to have a good pressing feel, the trigger key 420 is generally in a block structure, and the connecting piece is a back glue, so that the trigger key 420 and the support part 412 are bonded, which is convenient for processing, simple to operate, and can avoid the problem of poor device consistency caused by individual processing differences.

[0046] The above uses specific examples to elaborate on the present application, which is only used to help understand the present application and is not intended to limit the present application. For those skilled in the art of the present application, according to the idea of the present application, several simple deductions, deformations or substitutions can also be made.
