Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the field of atomization cores, and particularly relates to a heating element, an atomization core, and an electronic cigarette for an electronic cigarette atomization core. Background Art
[0002] The core component of an electronic cigarette is an atomization core, which includes a smoke oil adsorbent and a heating element. The heating element heats the smoke oil infiltrated / stored in the atomization core adsorbent to form a mist. The performance of the atomization core affects the amount of smoke, taste, and puff number during smoking. The utility model innovatively improves the temperature distribution on the heating element and the synergistic effect between multiple heating wires, so as to achieve higher atomization efficiency, more sufficient reduction of smoke, and longer suction life.
[0003] Currently, most heating circuits adopt a heating wire pattern with a continuous and equal width design. This design has the following problems: for areas where the heating wires are densely arranged, the heating wires with a continuous and equal width design will cause the heat generation to accumulate in this densely wired area, resulting in too high a local temperature on the surface of the adsorbent. While the blank area on the adsorbent without heating wires needs to wait for the heat to transfer here to gradually increase in temperature, that is, it cannot ensure the temperature balance at all positions on the surface of the adsorbent. This design relying on a single heating area to reach the temperature will lead to a lower atomization efficiency of the heating circuit for the smoke oil in the adsorbent.
[0004] Therefore, how to enable the heating element to quickly heat the smoke oil in the adsorbent and control the temperature rising speed of each local area to ensure a more uniform temperature distribution on the adsorbent, thereby improving the atomization efficiency of the smoke oil, is an urgent problem to be solved.

[0044] The following will clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, rather than all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative efforts belong to the scope of protection of the present utility model.
[0045] It should be understood that the specific implementation manners described herein are only used to illustrate and explain the present utility model, and are not used to limit the present utility model.
[0046] Any specific numerical value (including the endpoints of a numerical range) disclosed in this document is not limited to the exact value of that numerical value, but should be understood to also cover values close to that exact value, such as all possible numerical values within ±5% of that exact value.

[0047] Unless otherwise specified, the terms used in this document have the same meaning as commonly understood by those skilled in the art. If a term is defined in this document and its definition is different from the common understanding in the art, then the definition in this document shall prevail.
[0048] It should be noted that the "wide part" described in the specification of the present utility model refers to the part where the wire width of the same heating wire is widened, and the "narrow part" refers to the part where the wire width of the same heating wire is narrowed; among them, the wire width of the wide part is greater than the average wire width of the heating wire where the wide part is located, and the wire width of the narrow part is less than the average wire width of the heating wire where the narrow part is located; in other words, the above definitions of the wide part and the narrow part are obtained by comparing the internal conditions of the same heating wire, and the comparison of the wide part and the narrow part on multiple heating wires in the same embodiment can be described separately. For example, in some embodiments, the average wire widths between two or three or more heating wires may be different. In addition, it can be understood that the core concept of the design of the heating wire adopted in the present utility model is the variable diameter design, that is, there are local regions with different radial dimensions or wire width dimensions on the same heating wire.
[0049] The first aspect
[0050] See Figures 1 to 4 And Figure 6 , a heating element 1 for an electronic cigarette atomization core, the heating element 1 includes two contacts 11 for energization and a heating wire 12 electrically connected to the two contacts 11; at least one of the heating wires 12 has at least one region where the wire width is different from that of the remaining regions.
[0051] See Figures 1 to 4 And Figure 6 , in some embodiments of the present utility model, the heating wire 12 has at least one wide part 121 and / or narrow part 122; in the same heating wire 12, the wire width of the wide part 121 is greater than the wire width of the remaining part of the heating wire 12, and the wire width of the narrow part 122 is less than the wire width of the remaining part of the heating wire 12.
[0052] It can be understood that, see Figure 7, the above-mentioned heating element 1 covers the surface of the adsorbent 2 of the electronic cigarette atomizing core to heat the e-liquid in the adsorbent 2, vaporize and atomize the e-liquid for the user to inhale.
[0053] Specifically, for each heating wire 12, the principle of its series connection with the circuit is the same or similar, and the magnitude of the current flowing through every position along this heating wire 12 is equal; therefore, for the covering area of this heating wire 12 on the surface of the adsorbent 2, this part of the covering area can be further divided into multiple smaller regions. Sometimes some regions are desired to be designed with a faster temperature rising speed, and sometimes with a slower temperature rising speed. Therefore, the heat generation of each of the above-mentioned covering regions can be controlled by designing the heating wire 12 to be wider or narrower in line width; it can be understood that on the same heating wire 12, the wide part 121 with a widened line width has a reduced resistance in this region because the cross-sectional area for the current to flow through has increased, thereby reducing the heat generation in this region, while the narrow part 122 with a narrowed line width has an increased resistance in this region because the cross-sectional area for the current to flow through has decreased, thereby increasing the heat generation in this region. To sum up, the present utility model controls the line width difference at each position on the same heating wire 12, so that the heating amounts of each local region in the heating region covered by the same heating wire 12 are different, thereby achieving precise temperature control for each local region on the surface of the adsorbent 2, enabling the temperature rising speed of each local region on the surface of the adsorbent 2 to be precisely regulated. Furthermore, for different wiring pattern designs, the overall and local heat generation control can be adjusted through the above-mentioned inventive concept of the utility model to meet various design criteria.
[0054] The heating element 1 provided by the present utility model can quickly heat the e-liquid in the adsorbent 2 and ensure a more uniform temperature distribution of the adsorbent 2, thereby improving the atomization efficiency of the e-liquid; and the atomizing core and the electronic cigarette adopting this heating element 1 can provide a better e-liquid inhalation taste; wherein, the heating wire 12 in the heating element 1 provided by the present utility model is provided with a wide part 121 and / or a narrow part 122 with a width change to precisely regulate the temperature rising speed of each local position on the heating wire 12, so as to provide a precise heating effect for each local position on the surface of the adsorbent 2 containing the e-liquid, thereby improving and enhancing the e-liquid vaporization explosion effect of each local region on the adsorbent 2.
[0055] In addition, in some embodiments, the multiple heating wires 12 are arranged densely. In this case, on the premise that other conditions remain unchanged, in order to prevent the heat generation in this area from being too much and causing the temperature to be too high, several wide portions 121 can be provided to reduce the heat generation at this position as a whole. In other embodiments, the multiple heating wires 12 are arranged sparsely. In this case, on the premise that other conditions remain unchanged, in order to prevent the heat generation in this area from being too little and causing the temperature to be too low, several narrow portions 122 can be provided to increase the heat generation at this position as a whole.
[0056] However, in some other embodiments, the multiple heating wires 12 are already arranged densely, but it is still desired to further increase the heat generation in this area so as to further increase the temperature and the temperature rising speed in this area. In this case, several narrow portions 122 can be provided in these areas to further increase the heat generation in this area, thereby increasing the temperature in this area and increasing the heating speed in this area. In other embodiments, the multiple heating wires 12 are already arranged sparsely, but it is still desired to further reduce the heat generation in this area so as to further decrease the temperature and the temperature rising speed in this area. In this case, several wide portions 121 can be provided in these areas to further reduce the heat generation in this area, thereby decreasing the temperature in this area and decreasing the heating speed in this area.
[0057] Obviously, for different specific embodiments and design criteria, the flexible use of the wide portions 121 and the narrow portions 122 can be adjusted according to different design requirements to obtain the desired heat generation effect.
[0058] See Figure 1 、 Figure 2 、 Figure 4 and Figure 6 , in some embodiments of the present utility model, the number of the heating wires 12 is two; see Figure 3 , in some other embodiments of the present utility model, the number of the heating wires 12 is three; in some other embodiments, the number of the heating wires 12 can also be four, five or six or more; obviously, the specific number of the heating wires 12 can be selected according to the actual application requirements.
[0059] See Figure 1 , in some embodiments of the present utility model, among all the heating wires 12, the two narrow portions 122 with the smallest width dimensions are respectively located on two of the heating wires 12.
[0060] See Figure 1, in some embodiments of the present utility model, the two narrow portions 122 with the smallest width dimensions are respectively located on the first heating wire 12 and the second heating wire 12 in the heating wire 12. The wire width of one of the narrow portions 122 is A, and the wire width of the other narrow portion 122 is B, and A:B = 1:(1.1 - 2.5). It should be noted that if the above ratio is too small, the resistance value difference between the two narrow portions 122 and the heat generation difference caused by the resistance value difference will be too small, so that the heat generation control of each local area and the control of the temperature rise speed are not significant enough. Obviously, too small a wire width difference will make the regulation of the heat generation situation of the heating wire 12 not obvious; if the above ratio is too large, too large a wire width difference will result in a smaller resistance of the wide line. In the case where the same voltage is input to each branch of the parallel circuit, the wide line will withstand a larger current and output the maximum heat generation power, which will reduce the service life of the heating wire 12.
[0061] See Figure 2 , in some embodiments of the present utility model, among all the heating wires 12, the two wide portions 121 with the largest width dimensions are respectively located on two of the heating wires 12.
[0062] See Figure 2 , in some embodiments of the present utility model, the two wide portions 121 with the largest width dimensions are respectively located on the third heating wire 12 and the fourth heating wire 12 in the heating wire 12. The wire width of one of the wide portions 121 is C, and the wire width of the other wide portion 121 is D, and C:D = 1:(1.1 - 2.5). It should be noted that if the above ratio is too small, the resistance value difference between the two narrow portions 122 and the heat generation difference caused by the resistance value difference will be too small, so that the heat generation control of each local area and the control of the temperature rise speed are not significant enough. Obviously, too small a wire width difference will make the regulation of the heat generation situation of the heating wire 12 not obvious; if the above ratio is too large, too large a wire width difference will result in a smaller resistance of the wide line. In the case where the same voltage is input to each branch of the parallel circuit, the wide line will withstand a larger current and output the maximum heat generation power, which will reduce the service life of the heating wire 12.
[0063] See Figure 1 , in some embodiments of the present utility model, the same heating wire 12 has at least two narrow portions 122. The wire width of the narrow portion 122 with the smallest wire width is E, and the wire width of the narrow portion 122 with the smallest wire width among the remaining narrow portions 122 is F, and E:F = 1:(1.1 - 1.5). It should be noted that too small a wire width difference will make the regulation of the heat generation situation of the heating element 1 not obvious, and too large a wire width difference will cause a power mutation to easily occur when the current flows through the junction of the wide and narrow wire portions of the circuit, and repeated energization is not conducive to maintaining the life of the junction.
[0064] See Figure 2 In some embodiments of the present invention, on the same heating wire 12, there are at least two wide portions 121. The wire width of the widest wide portion 121 is G, and the wire width of the widest one among the remaining wide portions 121 is H, and G:H=(1.1-1.5):1. The ratio of the smallest-diameter wire portion to the largest-diameter wire portion on the same circuit is 1:1.1 to 1:1.5. Too small a wire-width difference will make the regulation of the circuit heating situation not obvious, while too large a wire-width difference will cause power mutation when the current flows through the junction of the wide and narrow wire portions of the circuit, and repeated energization is not conducive to maintaining the life of the junction.
[0065] In some embodiments of the present invention, on the same heating wire 12, the width dimension of the widest narrow portion 122 is J, and the width dimension of the narrowest wide portion 121 is K, and J:K = 1:(1.1-1.5). The ratio of the smallest-diameter wire portion to the largest-diameter wire portion on the same circuit is 1:1.1 to 1:1.5. Too small a wire-width difference will make the regulation of the circuit heating situation not obvious, while too large a wire-width difference will cause power mutation when the current flows through the junction of the wide and narrow wire portions of the circuit, and repeated energization is not conducive to maintaining the life of the junction.
[0066] See Figures 1 to 4 and Figure 6 In some embodiments of the present invention, the heating wire 12 is a smooth curve, and the smooth curve includes at least one bending portion 123; in other embodiments, the heating wire 12 is a straight line; in still other embodiments, it may also be a combination formed by a curved heating wire 12 and a straight heating wire 12.
[0067] In some embodiments of the present invention, the bending portion 123 is at least one of a C shape, a U shape, a V shape, an L shape or a J shape.
[0068] In some embodiments of the present invention, the smooth curve includes at least two bending portions 123, and the two adjacent bending portions 123 are smoothly transitioned to form at least one of an S shape, an M shape, a W shape, an N shape or a Z shape.
[0069] It can be understood that designing the narrow portion 122 at the sparse part of the heating wire 12 circuit can effectively improve the temperature rising speed and heating efficiency at that part of the circuit, appropriately adjust the wire width so that it can heat up simultaneously with the circuit at the dense part of the circuit, and greatly improve the atomization speed of the entire heating element 1 and the temperature uniformity of the entire atomization surface.
[0070] In other cases, designing a wide part 121 at a sparse circuit area and a narrow part 122 at a dense circuit area can effectively reduce the heat generation at the sparse circuit area, reduce the waste of power supply power at that place, and can also effectively improve the heat generation effect of the circuit at the dense circuit area, giving a higher explosive power to the local part of the circuit and effectively improving the atomization efficiency of the circuit.
[0071] Obviously, by scientifically designing the line width distribution of the circuit, the explosive power, the heat generation speed of the atomization surface, the uniformity of the temperature distribution of the atomization surface, and the heat generation efficiency of the heat-generating circuit can be effectively improved.
[0072] In some embodiments of the present utility model, the heating element 12 can provide a temperature field of 150-230 °C to ensure that the e-liquid has a sufficiently rapid explosion speed.
[0073] See Figure 1 , in this specific embodiment, the contact 11 is square, the number of heating wires 12 is two, the shape of each heating wire 12 is roughly C-shaped, the two C-shaped heating wires 12 arch outward away from each other, and there is only one narrow part 122 on each heating wire 12. Figure 1 The narrow part 122 is arranged at the central position of the two heating wires 12 to further improve the temperature explosion effect of the heat generation core area in the case of insufficient electrode explosion, so as to obtain a better e-liquid atomization effect and e-liquid smoking taste.
[0074] See Figure 2 , in this specific embodiment, the contact 11 is square, the number of heating wires 12 is two, the shape of each heating wire 12 is roughly C-shaped, the two C-shaped heating wires 12 arch outward away from each other, and there is only one wide part 121 on each heating wire 12. Figure 2 The wide part 121 is arranged at the central position of the two heating wires 12 because: when the electrode explosion is too strong, it is easy to cause problems such as coil burning and poor lifespan. Therefore, it is necessary to design the above-mentioned scheme to reduce the explosion of the heat generation core area of the heating element 1, so as to obtain a better e-liquid smoking taste and extend the overall lifespan of the product.
[0075] See Figure 3 , in this specific embodiment, the contact 11 is square, the number of heating wires 12 is three, the shapes of the two outermost heating wires 12 are roughly C-shaped, the two C-shaped heating wires 12 arch outward away from each other, the heating wire 12 at the middle position is roughly S-shaped, and there is only one wide part 121 on each heating wire 12. Figure 3The three heating wires 12 can solve the problem of relatively large sheet resistance of the resistive paste. Specifically, by increasing the number of parallel heating wires 12, the resistance of the entire heating element 1 is reduced; and by setting the wide part 121 at the central position of the three heating wires 12, when the electrode explodes too strongly, which is likely to cause paste core and poor lifespan, the explosion degree in the core area of the electrode heating can be significantly improved and reduced, thereby obtaining a better smoking taste of the e-liquid and extending the overall lifespan of the product.
[0076] See Figure 4 , in this specific embodiment, the contact 11 is square, the number of heating wires 12 is two, the shape of each heating wire 12 is roughly C-shaped, the two C-shaped heating wires 12 arch outward away from each other, and each heating wire 12 has two wide parts 121. Figure 4 Two wide parts 121 are respectively arranged at both ends of the two heating wires 12 to appropriately reduce the local heat loss and supply power to the central position and both ends of the heating wire 12. Since the electrode explosion effect in the area of both ends is weak and the heat generation is less, the above design can achieve the uniformity of the surface temperature of the entire adsorbent 2, improve the atomization effect of the electrode on the e-liquid, and thus enhance the smoking taste of the e-liquid.
[0077] See Figure 5 , this is a wiring scheme in the prior art. Its contact 11 is square, the number of heating wires 12 is only one, the shape of this heating wire 12 is roughly S-shaped, and the wire width is equal everywhere on this heating wire 12; obviously, the heat generation amount at each position on this heating wire 12 in the prior art is the same, so it is impossible to provide precise control of the heat generation amount and the starting temperature speed for each local area in the area where this heating wire 12 is arranged.
[0078] See Figure 6 , in this specific embodiment, the contact 11 is circular, the number of heating wires 12 is two, the shape of each heating wire 12 is roughly C-shaped, the two C-shaped heating wires 12 arch outward away from each other, and each heating wire 12 has two wide parts 121. Figure 6 Compared with Figure 2 , the main difference is the contact 11 of the electrode. The square contact 11 in Figure 2 is replaced with the circular contact 11 in Figure 6 . This design is mainly to adapt to the position and shape of the power contact pins of different smoking device products. The shape of the contact of the electrode has little influence on the actual heating effect.
[0079] In some embodiments of the present invention, the heating wire 12 and the contact 11 are integrally formed, preferably made of resistive paste through high-temperature sintering.
[0080] In some embodiments of the present utility model, the heating wire 12 is electrically connected to the contact 11 via a conductive medium, specifically, it can be connected by a wire or other conductive materials or devices.
[0081] In a second aspect
[0082] Referring to Figure 7 , an atomizing core includes an adsorbent 2 having a porous structure capable of adsorbing e-liquid and the above-mentioned heating element 1 arranged in contact with the adsorbent 2.
[0083] It can be understood that since the above-mentioned heating element 1 is used in this atomizing core, it is beneficial to improve the explosive power of the heating circuit, the heating speed of the atomizing surface, the uniformity of the temperature distribution on the atomizing surface, and the heating efficiency.
[0084] In some embodiments of the present utility model, the material of the adsorbent 2 is ceramic or glass.
[0085] In some embodiments of the present utility model, the adsorbent 2 made of ceramic material with a porous structure and mainly composed of SiO2 has a porosity of 50±5% and an average pore diameter of 30±5μm; its length, width and height are 9.0*3.5*2.6mm, in the shape of a cuboid, and can be obtained by a tape casting and lamination process or an injection process.
[0086] In some embodiments of the present utility model, the adsorbent 2 made of ceramic material with a porous structure and mainly composed of SiO2 has a porosity of 60±5% and an average pore diameter of 50±5μm; its length, width and height are 9.0*4.0*2.5mm, in the shape of a cuboid, and can be obtained by an injection process or a lamination process.
[0087] In a third aspect
[0088] A manufacturing method of the above-mentioned atomizing core includes the following steps: S1, providing an adsorbent 2 and a resistance paste for manufacturing the contact 11 and the heating wire 12; S2, applying the resistance paste to the surface of the adsorbent 2 to form a heating circuit pattern including the contact 11 and the heating wire 12; S3, performing high-temperature sintering on the adsorbent 2 with the heating circuit pattern to obtain the atomizing core.
[0089] In some embodiments of the present utility model, the above-mentioned resistance paste can specifically be a nickel-chromium resistance paste.
[0090] In some embodiments of the present utility model, between steps S1 and S2, grooves are machined on the surface of the adsorbent 2, and the grooves are used to accommodate the resistance paste.
