[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of multi-cartridge electronic atomizers, and particularly relates to an electronic atomizer for inhaling aerosol. Background Art

[0002] An electronic atomizer is an electronic product that atomizes an aerosol-forming substrate to produce flavored aerosol for users to inhale. It includes an atomization chamber and a heating element. The atomization chamber is connected to the external atmosphere, and the heating element is arranged in the atomization chamber to receive the aerosol-forming substrate and heat the aerosol-forming substrate to produce aerosol. Users inhale the aerosol in the atomization chamber by suction.

[0003] To meet the needs of users, there is an existing one-piece multi-cartridge electronic atomizer, that is, the main body of the electronic atomizer is loaded with multiple cartridges, and the multiple cartridges share the same mouthpiece. When users alternately use the cartridges, the flavored substances generated by the use of the previous cartridge will remain in the mouthpiece. For example, condensate will remain on the mouthpiece, causing flavor confusion. Summary of the Utility Model

[0004] The main object of the utility model is to provide a multi-cartridge electronic atomizer, which can solve the technical problem of excessive condensate in the airway caused by excessive aerosol generated in the existing multi-cartridge electronic atomizer.

[0005] To achieve the above object, the present application provides a multi-cartridge electronic atomizer, including a main body and at least two atomization components. Among them, the main body has a housing with a first end and a second end arranged longitudinally. The housing is provided with a receiving cavity near the first end, and a power source is arranged near the second end of the housing. Each atomization component includes a mouthpiece and an atomization core. The atomization components are all movably arranged in the receiving cavity and can move between a first position close to the opening and a second position away from the opening.

[0006] Among them, after the atomization component moves to the first position, the mouthpiece is exposed outside the receiving cavity, and the atomization core is electrically connected to the power source; after the atomization component moves to the second position, the mouthpiece is received in the receiving cavity, and the atomization core is disconnected from the power source.

[0007] The above multi-cartridge electronic atomizer can solve the problem of flavor mixing caused by multiple cartridges sharing the same mouthpiece in the prior art.

[0008] In some embodiments, the housing of the main body is in a cylindrical shape, one end of the cylinder has an open end to form a receiving cavity inside the cylinder, and a power source is arranged inside the other end of the cylinder. Further, a partition is arranged inside the cylinder to separate the power source from the receiving cavity, and the electrode extended from the power source forms an electrical contact on the inner wall of the receiving cavity.

[0009] In some embodiments, the host forms a strip-shaped hole communicating with the accommodation cavity on the side wall of the cylinder along the axial direction of the cylinder or the longitudinal direction with a height, and one end of the strip-shaped hole close to the open end is used to define a first position, and the other end of the strip-shaped hole defines a second position. The atomization assembly is accommodated in the accommodation cavity through the open end, and the user can operate the atomization assembly to move in the accommodation cavity between the first position and the second position through the strip-shaped hole. It can be understood that electrical contacts electrically connected to the power source are provided in the accommodation cavity. Wherein, after each atomization assembly moves to the first position, the atomization core is electrically connected to the electrical contact, and can obtain power supply from the power source to atomize the aerosol-forming substrate to form an aerosol; after each atomization assembly moves to the second position, the atomization core is disconnected from the electrical contact.

[0010] In some embodiments, the above-mentioned accommodation cavity can be a complete cavity or can be divided into two independent accommodation cavities. Further, the accommodation cavity is spaced and divided into accommodation cavities equal in number and adapted to the atomization assemblies, and each atomization assembly can move between the first position and the second position in the corresponding accommodation cavity.

[0011] In some embodiments, the electrical contacts in the above embodiments are provided on the intervals or walls shared by multiple accommodation cavities.

[0012] In some embodiments, the multi-cartridge electronic atomizer further includes an operation part movable relative to the host, the operation part is connected to the atomization assembly, and the operation part is used to operate the atomization assembly to move relative to the host between the first position and the second position. Further, the operation part can operate at least one of the multiple atomization assemblies or multiple atomization assemblies simultaneously to move relative to the host between the first position and the second position.

[0013] In some embodiments, the multi-cartridge electronic atomizer is provided with the same number of operation parts as the atomization assemblies, and each operation part is connected to a corresponding atomization assembly to operate the corresponding atomization assembly to move between the first position and the second position. Further, at least a part of the operation part is arranged in the accommodation cavity to carry the atomization assembly.

[0014] In some embodiments, the above-mentioned host includes a housing, a part of the operation part is exposed outside the housing, and the surface of the part of the operation part exposed outside the housing protrudes or is flush with the surface of the housing.

[0015] In some embodiments, a gas channel for connecting the accommodation cavity and the external atmosphere is provided on the above-mentioned host. Each atomization component further includes an atomization chamber allowing the external atmosphere to pass through. When the atomization component is in the second position, the atomization component blocks one end of the gas channel close to the atomization chamber. After the atomization component leaves the second position, the atomization chamber communicates with the mouthpiece and the gas channel.

[0016] In some embodiments, the number of the gas channels is equal to the number of the atomization components, and each gas channel is independent of each other. After each atomization component leaves the second position, the atomization chamber communicates with the corresponding gas channel.

[0017] In some embodiments, each atomization component is provided with a unique identification unit. Specifically, the identification unit may be at least one of a pattern and a color. In some embodiments, the identification unit can be configured on the mouthpiece to form different shapes of the mouthpiece for users to identify.

[0018] Compared with the prior art, multiple atomization components including mouthpieces can move relative to the host respectively, so that when the mouthpieces are exposed outside the host, they can be powered on and used by users, and when the mouthpieces are hidden inside the host, they cannot be powered on and used, so as to avoid sharing the same mouthpiece when users switch the atomization components.

Many specific details are set forth in the following description in order to fully understand the present application. However, the present application can be implemented in many other ways different from those described herein. Those skilled in the art can make similar improvements without departing from the connotation of the present application. Therefore, the present application is not limited by the specific embodiments disclosed below. Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by those skilled in the technical field to which the present application belongs. The terms used in the description of the present application herein are only for the purpose of describing specific embodiments and are not intended to limit the present application. The term "and / or" used herein includes any and all combinations of one or more of the related listed items.

[0031] In the description of the present application, unless otherwise clearly defined and bounded, terms such as "installed", "connected", "connected", "fixed", etc. should be understood in a broad sense. For example, it can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or integrated; it can be a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; it can be directly connected or indirectly connected through an intermediate medium, and it can be the communication inside two components or the interaction relationship between two components, unless otherwise clearly defined. For those of ordinary skill in the art, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present application can be understood according to specific circumstances.

[0032] Electronic atomizers can be used in different fields, including but not limited to, for example, medical atomization, beauty atomization, and electronic atomizers used in industries such as alternative cigarettes. They are mainly used to atomize an aerosol-forming substrate into an aerosol. The aerosol-forming substrate can be a liquid substrate such as a liquid medicine or a nutrient solution. Taking the electronic atomizer that can replace cigarettes as an example, when the electronic atomizer works, the aerosol-forming substrate contains nicotine or synthetic nicotine and can be atomized by the atomizing core of the atomizing component to form an aerosol. Of course, flavors or sweeteners that stimulate taste or smell can also be added to the aerosol-forming substrate. The existing atomization methods can be heating atomization or non-heating atomization. Among them, the heating atomization methods include resistance heating, electromagnetic heating, laser heating, infrared heating, and microwave heating, etc.; the non-heating atomization methods include ultrasonic atomization, pressure atomization, mechanical vibration atomization, and compressed air atomization, etc.

[0033] As Figures 1 - 6 shown, the present application provides a multi-cartridge electronic atomizer, including a main body and at least two atomizing components 20 that can atomize an atomization substrate into an aerosol. Among them, the main body has a housing 10 provided with a first end and a second end along the longitudinal Y-axis. The housing 10 is provided with a receiving cavity 12 near the first end, and a power supply 40 is provided near the second end of the housing 10. Each atomizing component 20 includes a mouthpiece 21 and an atomizing core. The atomizing component 20 is movably disposed in the receiving cavity 12 and can move between a first position and a second position. After the atomizing component 20 moves to the first position, the mouthpiece 21 is exposed outside the receiving cavity 12, and the atomizing core is electrically connected to the power supply 40; after the atomizing component 20 moves to the second position, the mouthpiece 21 is received in the receiving cavity 12, and the atomizing core is disconnected from the power supply 40.

[0034] The user can push out a certain atomizing component from the receiving cavity 12 of the main body according to the desired operation requirement, so that the mouthpiece 21 configured on the atomizing component 20 is exposed outside the receiving cavity 12, and the user can suck the aerosol generated by the atomizing component 20 by holding the mouthpiece 21 in the mouth. When the user no longer needs to suck the aerosol, the user can operate the exposed atomizing component 20 to retract into the receiving cavity 12 to hide the mouthpiece 21 in the receiving cavity 12, avoiding the exposure of the mouthpiece 21 to pollution, and can reduce the overall length of the electronic atomizer for easy carrying. And when the user is not satisfied with the aerosol effect generated by one of the atomizing components, the user can operate another atomizing component to be exposed outside the receiving cavity 12 to expose the corresponding mouthpiece 21, avoiding the taste mixing of the mouthpiece 21 caused by the alternating use of the atomizing components 20 and sharing the mouthpiece 21.

[0035] In some embodiments, as Figure 3As shown, the housing 10 of the above-mentioned main body is cylindrical. One end of the cylinder has an opening to form a receiving cavity 12 inside the cylinder, and a power source 40 is arranged inside the other end of the cylinder. Further, a partition 13 is arranged inside the cylinder to separate the power source 40 from the receiving cavity 12, and the electrodes extending from the power source 40 form electrical contacts on the inner wall of the receiving cavity 12. Among them, the power source 40 includes a rechargeable or non-rechargeable battery. It can be understood that the electrodes of the atomization assembly 20 for receiving electric energy form contact points on the side close to the electrical contacts. When the atomization assembly 20 moves to the first position, the contact points contact the electrical contacts to complete the electrical connection.

[0036] In some embodiments, as Figure 5 shown, a strip-shaped hole 11 communicating with the inside of the receiving cavity 12 is formed in the side wall of the cylindrical housing 10 along the Y-axis direction or the longitudinal direction with height of the housing 10. One end of the strip-shaped hole 11 close to the opening is used to define the first position, and the other end of the strip-shaped hole 11 defines the second position. The atomization assembly 20 is received in the receiving cavity 12 through the opening, and the user can operate the atomization assembly 20 to move in the receiving cavity 12 between the first position and the second position through the strip-shaped hole. It can be understood that after the atomization assembly 20 moves to the first position, the atomization assembly 20 is electrically connected to the electrical contacts and can obtain power supply from the power source 40 to atomize the aerosol-forming substrate to form an aerosol.

[0037] In some embodiments, the above-mentioned receiving cavity 12 can be a complete cavity or can be divided into two independent receiving cavities 12. Further, as Figure 4 shown, the receiving cavity 12 is divided by the partition 13 into receiving cavities 12 that are equal in number and adapted to the atomization assemblies 20, and each atomization assembly 20 can move between the first position and the second position in the corresponding receiving cavity 12.

[0038] In some embodiments, the electrical contacts in the above embodiments are arranged on the partition 13 or the wall shared by the plurality of receiving cavities 12. Further, electrical contacts are arranged on both sides of the partition 13 to achieve electrical parallel connection with the corresponding atomization assemblies 20, and the positions of the electrical contacts are close to the first position.

[0039] In some embodiments, the multi-cartridge electronic atomizer further includes an operation part 30 that can move relative to the main body. One end of the operation part 30 passes through the strip-shaped hole 11 and is arranged in the receiving cavity 12 and is connected to the atomization assembly 20. As Figure 4As shown, one end of the operation part 30 passes through the strip-shaped hole 11 to form a support base 31 inside the accommodation cavity 12. The atomization assembly 20 is fixed on the support base 31. When the user operates the operation part 30 to move within the strip-shaped hole 11, the atomization assembly 20 makes the same moving action inside the accommodation cavity 12. Further, the other end of the operation part 30 is exposed outside the strip-shaped hole 11 to form an operation end 32 for the user to operate the atomization assembly 20 to move relative to the main body between a first position and a second position. Further, the operation part 30 can operate at least one of the multiple atomization assemblies 20 or multiple atomization assemblies 20 to move relative to the main body between the first position and the second position simultaneously.

[0040] In some embodiments, the multi-cartridge electronic atomizer is provided with the operation parts 30 equal in number to the atomization assemblies 20. Each operation part 30 is connected to a corresponding atomization assembly 20 to operate the corresponding atomization assembly 20 to move between the first position and the second position. Further, the operation part 30 is at least partially disposed inside the accommodation cavity 12 to carry the atomization assembly 20.

[0041] In some embodiments, a part of the above operation part 30 is exposed outside the housing 10, and the surface of the part of the operation part 30 exposed outside the housing 10 protrudes or is flush with the surface of the housing 10. It can be understood that the part of the operation end 32 of the operation part 30 protruding outside the housing 10 can be toggled by the user. If the part of the operation end 32 of the operation part 30 exposed outside the housing 10 is flush with the surface of the housing 10, the user can operate the operation part 30 by pushing.

[0042] In some embodiments, the housing 10 of the above main body is provided with a gas passage for communicating the accommodation cavity 12 and the external atmosphere. Each atomization assembly 20 further includes an atomization chamber allowing the external atmosphere to pass through. When the atomization assembly 20 is located at the second position, the atomization assembly 20 blocks one end of the gas passage close to the atomization chamber. After the atomization assembly 20 leaves the second position, the atomization chamber communicates with the mouthpiece 21 and the gas passage communicates, so as to use the external gas to push the aerosol when the user sucks through the mouthpiece 21 for the user to suck.

[0043] In some embodiments, the above-mentioned housing 10 is provided with gas channels equal in number to the atomization components 20, and each gas channel is independent of each other. After each atomization component 20 leaves the second position, the atomization chamber communicates with the corresponding gas channel. Of course, when the atomization component 20 moves to the second position, the atomization component 20 or the operation part 30 blocks the gas channel. It can be understood that in the existing electronic atomizer, when the external air enters the gas channel and causes a pressure change, the electronic atomizer can be activated to make the atomization component 20 perform atomization work. Therefore, after the gas channel is blocked, the electronic atomizer cannot be activated.

[0044] As Figure 5 shown, the electronic atomizer provided by the present application has a first atomization component 20A and a second atomization component 20B. And, as can be understood by those skilled in the art, in some embodiments, the electronic atomizer is an electronic cigarette, and the atomization component can be a cartridge that can be loaded on a main unit with a power source. That is, the atomization component has a mouthpiece and an atomization core. One end of the housing 10 of the electronic atomizer has a receiving cavity 12 for receiving 2 atomization components. The housing 10 is provided with a first strip-shaped hole 11A and a second strip-shaped hole 11B equal in number to the atomization components 20. Each strip-shaped hole communicates with the receiving cavity 12, and the first operation part 30A and the second operation part 30B equal in number to the atomization components 20 are at least partially exposed outside the strip-shaped hole 11.

[0045] As Figure 6 shown, after the user uses the first operation part 30A to operate the first atomization component 20A to move to the first position restricted by the range of the strip-shaped hole 11, the first mouthpiece 21A on the first atomization component 20A is exposed outside the receiving cavity 12, and at the same time, the first atomization component 20A is electrically connected to the electrical contact on the inner wall of the receiving cavity 12; if the user operates the second atomization component 20B to be in the second position, the second atomization component 20B can be completely received in the receiving cavity 12, that is, the second mouthpiece 21B of the second atomization component 20B is also hidden in the receiving cavity 12. At the same time, the first atomization component 20A is disconnected from the electrical contact on the inner wall of the receiving cavity 12.

[0046] In some embodiments, each atomization component is provided with a unique identification unit that allows the user to identify the flavor or other different functions of the atomization component. Specifically, the identification unit can be at least one of a pattern and a color. In some embodiments, the identification unit can be configured on the mouthpiece to form the mouthpiece into different shapes for the user to identify.

[0047] Compared with the prior art, multiple atomization components including mouthpieces can move relative to the main unit respectively, so that when the mouthpiece is exposed outside the main unit, it can be powered on and used by the user, and when the mouthpiece is hidden in the main unit, it cannot be powered on and used, so as to avoid sharing the same mouthpiece when the user switches the atomization components.

[0048] The above are only some or preferred embodiments of the present utility model. Neither the text nor the drawings can limit the protection scope of the present utility model. Any equivalent structural transformation made by using the content of the specification and drawings of the present utility model under the overall concept of the present utility model, or any direct / indirect application in other related technical fields is included in the protection scope of the present utility model.
