Among them, the installation part 150 also has a partition 156. The partition 156 divides the installation space 150A into multiple sub-spaces, and each sub-space corresponds to one cartridge 200 installed. Exemplarily, the present application has two sub-spaces. In this way, the installation part 150 can facilitate the installation of the cartridge 200, and can also make the cartridge 200 be firmly supported, reducing the risk of damage caused by vibration or collision; the installation part 150 includes a top plate 151 located above the cartridge 200. The top plate 151 is provided with at least two through holes 152. When the cartridge 200 is installed in the installation space 150A, the top of the cartridge 200 will abut against the bottom surface of the top plate 151, and the smoke outlet of one cartridge 200 communicates with one through hole 152, and the mouthpiece assembly 300 communicates with different cartridges 200 by communicating with different through holes 152.

[0044] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3 , the bottom of the flexible connector 320 abuts against the top surface of the top plate 151, so that the mouthpiece 310 and the through hole 152 are hermetically connected. And by abutting the cartridge 200 against the top plate 151, the smoke outlet of the cartridge 200 is hermetically connected to the through hole 152. With such an arrangement, the mouthpiece 310 can be hermetically connected to the smoke outlet of the cartridge 200, ensuring that there is no air leakage or oil leakage during use, and improving the durability and stability of the product.

[0045] In still some other embodiments, please refer to Figure 3 and Figure 4 , at least two open-top conduction grooves 153 are provided on the top of the top plate 151, and one conduction groove 153 is correspondingly connected to one through hole 152; the flexible connector 320 covers one of the at least two conduction grooves 153 and is hermetically connected to the conduction groove 153. Wherein, a ring-shaped frame 154 may protrude from the top of the top plate 151, and a plurality of through holes 152 are located inside the ring-shaped frame 154. A stop strip 155 also protrudes from the top of the top plate 151, and the stop strip 155 is located between two adjacent through holes 152. The ring-shaped frame 154 and the stop strip 155 enclose the conduction groove 153. The bottom of the connector abuts against the part of the ring-shaped frame 154 and the stop strip 155 to be hermetically connected to the conduction groove 153. With such an arrangement, the flexible connector 320 can be connected to different cartridges 200 by communicating with different conduction grooves 153. In this embodiment, the flexible connector 320 abuts against the ring-shaped frame 154 and the stop strip 155, and the contact area is small. When the bottom of the flexible connector 320 is squeezed by the ring-shaped frame 154 and the stop strip 155, partial deformation of the flexible connector 320 can be caused, so as to improve the tightness of the connection between the flexible connector 320 and the conduction groove 153, and further improve the tightness of the connection between the mouthpiece 310 and the cartridge 200.

[0046] Further, in the solution where the bottom of the flexible connector 320 abuts against the top surface of the top plate 151 to achieve the hermetic connection between the mouthpiece 310 and the through hole 152, a ring-shaped frame 154 can also be provided on the top surface of the top plate 151, and the flexible connector 320 slides inside the ring-shaped frame 154. In this example, the ring-shaped frame 154 can play a role in limiting.
