[0047] The present application aims to improve the utilization rate of the atomization device in an aerosol generating device, and provides an aerosol generating system with visible oil quantity. The secondary oil tank is clamped and fixed to the outside of the aerosol generating device through the installation part, and the secondary oil tank communicates with the main oil tank through the communication part. After the liquid aerosol generating matrix in the secondary oil tank is exhausted, the aerosol generating device can be continued to be used by adding or replacing the secondary oil tank and installing a new secondary oil tank on the aerosol generating device, so as to supplement the liquid aerosol generating matrix, which is beneficial to improving the utilization rate of the aerosol generating device and avoiding waste of the aerosol generating device. For specific details, please refer to the following embodiments.

[0048] Please refer to Figure 1 , in the first embodiment of the present application, an aerosol generating system 100 with visible oil quantity is provided, which includes an aerosol generating device 10 and a secondary oil tank 20.

[0049] Among them, the aerosol generating device 10 can be used to heat the aerosol generating matrix contained therein to generate aerosol. The secondary oil tank 20 can communicate with the aerosol generating device 10 and transport the aerosol generating matrix after the aerosol generating matrix reserved in the aerosol generating device 10 itself is exhausted, so as to increase the service life of the aerosol generating device 10 and even the aerosol generating system 100; it can also communicate with the aerosol generating device 10 and transport the aerosol generating matrix before the aerosol generating matrix reserved in the aerosol generating device 10 itself is exhausted, which can not only increase the service life of the aerosol generating device 10 and even the aerosol generating system 100, but also ensure the consistency and continuity of the aerosol taste of the aerosol generating system 100.

[0050] Please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 , in one embodiment, the aerosol generating device 10 and the secondary oil tank 20 are independent of each other. Specifically, the aerosol generating device 10 is provided with a first oil storage space 120, and the first oil storage space 120 is used to store the liquid aerosol generating matrix and serve as the reaction space of the atomization assembly 13 in the first oil storage space 120. The atomization assembly 13 heats the liquid aerosol generating matrix and atomizes it to generate aerosol for users to use. The secondary oil tank 20 has a second oil storage space 200, and the second oil storage space 200 is used to store the liquid aerosol generating matrix. The secondary oil tank 20 can communicate the second oil storage space 200 with the first oil storage space 120 when the aerosol generating matrix in the first oil storage space 120 is exhausted or about to be exhausted, so as to supplement the aerosol generating matrix for the first oil storage space 120. In this way, on the one hand, it is beneficial to the miniaturization and portability of the aerosol generating device 10, and on the other hand, it can solve the problem of short service life of the aerosol generating device 10 and improve the endurance of the aerosol generating system 100.

[0051] Please continue to refer toFigure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 , in yet another embodiment, the secondary oil reservoir 20 can always be externally attached to the aerosol generating device 10. Specifically, the aerosol generating device 10 is provided with a first oil storage space 120 for storing a liquid aerosol generating matrix and serving as a reaction space for the atomizing assembly 13 in the first oil storage space 120. The atomizing assembly 13 heats the liquid aerosol generating matrix to atomize and generate aerosol for user use. The secondary oil reservoir 20 has a second oil storage space 200 for storing a liquid aerosol generating matrix. The second oil storage space 200 communicates with the first oil storage space 120 to increase the capacity of the aerosol generating matrix of the aerosol generating system 100. In this way, the secondary oil reservoir 20 can keep the oil volume in the main oil reservoir 12 in a healthy working state all the time, that is, before the liquid aerosol generating matrix in the secondary oil reservoir 20 is exhausted, it can effectively ensure the consistency of the aerosol concentration and taste generated by the aerosol generating device 10.

[0052] Further, after the liquid aerosol generating matrix in the secondary oil reservoir 20 is exhausted, the aerosol generating system 10 can further improve the utilization rate of the aerosol generating device 10 by replacing the secondary oil reservoir 20.

[0053] Please continue to refer to Figure 3 , the aerosol generating device 10 may include a housing assembly 11, a main oil reservoir 12, an atomizing assembly 13, a battery 14, a control assembly 15 and a liquid guiding tube 16, wherein the main oil reservoir 12, the atomizing assembly 13, the battery 14, the control assembly 15 and the liquid guiding tube 16 are received in the housing assembly 11.

[0054] The housing assembly 11 may include a cover shell 111 and a base 112 and a mouthpiece 113 located at both ends of the cover body. The base 112, the mouthpiece 113 and the cover shell 111 enclose a receiving cavity 110, and the main oil reservoir 12, the atomizing assembly 13, the battery 14, the control assembly 15 and the liquid guiding tube 16 are received in the receiving cavity 110.

[0055] The cover shell 111 is a hollow structure along the length direction (which can also be the height direction) of the housing assembly 11, and its cross-section can be roughly in the shape of a rectangle, a square or a circle, without specific limitation here. In this embodiment, the cross-section of the cover shell 111 is rectangular so that the components received in the receiving cavity 110 can be arranged in a flat manner. A docking portion 1111 is provided on the cover shell 111, and the docking portion 1111 can communicate with the secondary oil reservoir 20 so that the aerosol generating matrix in the secondary oil reservoir 20 can flow into the aerosol generating device 10.

[0056] The base 112 is connected to one end of the housing 111. In some embodiments, the base 112 and the housing 111 can be integrally formed, which can ensure the connection reliability between the base 112 and the housing 111 on the one hand, and simplify the assembly process on the other hand.

[0057] Please continue to refer to Figure 3 , in some other embodiments, the base 112 can also be fixed to the housing 111 by clamping. For example, the base 112 can be provided with a first clamping structure, and the housing 111 can be provided with a second clamping structure. The first clamping structure and the second clamping structure cooperate with each other to connect and fix the base 112 and the housing 111. The first clamping structure can be one of a buckle and a slot, and the second clamping structure can be the other of a buckle and a slot.

[0058] Please continue to refer to Figure 3 , the base 112 can be provided with an air inlet hole 1121 and a charging port 1122. External air can enter the mouthpiece through the air inlet hole 1121, the accommodation cavity 110, and the atomization assembly 13 in sequence. The charging port 1122 is used to dock with a charging device to charge the battery 14.

[0059] The mouthpiece 113 is clamped and connected to the end of the housing 111 away from the base 112. The mouthpiece 113 can include a cover plate 1131 and a suction part 1132 connected to the cover plate 1131. The cover plate 1131 is clamped and connected to the housing 111, and the suction part 1132 is arranged on the side away from the housing 111. The mouthpiece 113 is provided with a suction hole 1130 penetrating through the cover plate 1131 and the suction part 1132, and the suction hole 1130 is communicated with the atomization assembly 13 to facilitate the user to inhale through the suction part 1132.

[0060] Please continue to refer to Figure 3 , in this embodiment, the main oil tank 12 can include an oil tank cover 121, and a first sealing cover 122 and a second sealing cover 123 located at both ends of the oil tank cover 121. The first sealing cover 122, the second sealing cover 123, and the oil tank cover 121 enclose a first oil storage space 120. In other embodiments, the oil tank 12 can include a first sealing cover 122 and a second sealing cover 123. The first sealing cover 122 and the second sealing cover 123 can enclose a first oil storage space 120 with the inner wall of the housing 111.

[0061] Please continue to refer to Figure 3 , in this embodiment, the shape of the first sealing cover 122 corresponds to the cross-sectional shape of the housing 111, so that the edge of the first sealing cover 122 can fully fit the inner wall of the housing 111 to prevent the air entering the accommodation cavity 110 from directly entering the suction hole 1130. Similarly, the shape of the second sealing cover 123 corresponds to the cross-sectional shape of the housing 111, so that the edge of the second sealing cover 123 can fully fit the inner wall of the housing 111.

[0062] The main oil chamber 12 is also provided with an air guiding channel, and the outside air can sequentially pass through the air inlet hole 1121, the accommodating cavity 110, and the air guiding channel and enter the air extraction hole 1130 to realize the inflow and outflow of air. Specifically, a first through hole 1221 is provided on the first sealing cover 122, a second through hole 1231 corresponding to the first through hole 1211 is provided on the second sealing cover 123, and the air guiding channel penetrates through the first through hole 1221 and the second through hole 1231.

[0063] Please continue to refer to Figure 3 The main oil chamber 12 may further include an oil storage cotton 124, and the oil storage cotton 124 is received in the first oil storage space 120. It can be understood that when the aerosol generating matrix is received in the first oil storage space 120, it is in full contact with the oil storage cotton 124. On the one hand, the oil storage cotton 124 can fix the aerosol generating matrix received in the first oil storage space 120 to prevent the aerosol generating matrix from violently moving due to inertia during transportation or shaking of the aerosol generating device 10, resulting in an oil leakage problem. On the other hand, due to the suction of the oil storage cotton 124, the aerosol generating matrix can be evenly transported to the atomization assembly 13 to ensure the consistency of the aerosol concentration generated by the atomization assembly 13. On the one hand, the oil storage cotton 124 can effectively transport the aerosol generating matrix at the bottom of the first oil storage space 120 to a relatively high position (i.e., the atomization assembly 13) to improve the utilization rate of the aerosol generating matrix in the first oil storage space 120.

[0064] Please continue to refer to Figure 3 One end of the atomization assembly 13 penetrates through the first through hole 1221, and the other end penetrates through the second through hole 1231. In other words, the air guiding channel is formed by surrounding the atomization assembly 13. It can be understood that a part of the structure of the atomization assembly 13 is received in the first oil storage space 120 and is in full contact with the aerosol generating matrix in the first oil storage space 120.

[0065] Please continue to refer to Figure 3 Specifically, the atomization assembly 13 may include an oil guiding cotton 131, a fixing cylinder 132, a heating mesh sheet 133, and an air guiding pipe 134. Among them, the fixing cylinder 132, the oil guiding cotton 131, and the heating mesh sheet 133 are stacked in sequence from the outside to the inside, and one end of the air guiding pipe 134 is clamped and received in the fixing cylinder 132 and communicated with the fixing cylinder 132.

[0066] Please continue to refer to Figure 3, one end of the fixed cylinder 132 away from the air duct 134 passes through the second through hole 1231, and one end of the air duct 134 away from the fixed cylinder 132 passes through the first through hole 1221. At least part of the structures of the fixed cylinder 132 and the air duct 134 are received in the first oil storage space 120, so that the aerosol forming matrix in the first oil storage space 120 can enter the atomization assembly 13 by osmosis to be heated by the atomization assembly 13 to generate aerosol.

[0067] Please continue to refer to Figure 3 , in this embodiment, the oil guide cotton 131 is generally arranged in a cylindrical shape. The oil guide cotton 131 is received in the fixed cylinder 132 and the outer peripheral surface of the oil guide cotton 131 is attached to the fixed cylinder 132. The heating mesh 133 is wound into a circle or a semicircle and attached to the inner peripheral surface of the oil guide cotton 131. In other words, the heating mesh 133 can enclose to form a heating channel 1330. One end of the air duct 134 passes through the fixed cylinder 132 and communicates with the heating channel 1330.

[0068] The oil guide cotton 131 may include a cylindrical portion and a sealing portion connected to the cylindrical portion. It can be understood that in the non-installed state, the oil guide cotton 131 is generally in a strip shape. To ensure that the outer peripheral surface of the oil guide cotton 131 can closely adhere to the inner wall of the fixed cylinder 132, the oil guide cotton 131 usually uses a shaping auxiliary such as a shaping tube or a shaping rod to realize the shaping of the oil guide cotton 131. The sealing portions are respectively located at both ends of the cylindrical portion. When the cylindrical portion is wound around the outer surface of the shaping auxiliary, the sealing portions at both ends of the cylindrical portion are attached to each other to realize the closed loop and shaping of the cylindrical portion.

[0069] The fixed cylinder 132 may be provided with a clamping hole for clamping the sealing portions at both ends of the fixed cylindrical portion. When the oil guide cotton 131 is received in the fixed cylinder 132, the cylindrical portion is completely received in the fixed cylinder 132, and the outer peripheral surface of the cylindrical portion is attached to the inner surface of the fixed cylinder 132, so that the cylindrical portion is in full contact with the inner wall of the fixed cylinder 132. The sealing portion is clamped in the clamping hole. On the one hand, it ensures that the sealing portions at both ends of the cylindrical portion are fully attached to each other to avoid the shaping of the cylindrical portion. On the other hand, it can position the cylindrical portion at a preset position of the fixed cylinder 132 to prevent the cylindrical portion from slipping. On the other hand, when the atomization assembly 13 is received in the first oil storage space 120, the aerosol forming matrix in the first oil storage space 120 can penetrate through the sealing portion to the heating mesh 133.

[0070] In this embodiment, the cylindrical portion is completely received in the fixed cylinder 132, and the cylindrical portion and the fixed cylinder 132 are arranged in a stepped shape. When the air duct 134 is inserted into the fixed cylinder 132, one end of the air duct 134 abuts against the end of the cylindrical portion, and the air duct 134 is clamped and connected to the fixed cylinder 132. In this way, when the air duct 134 is clamped in the fixed cylinder, the air duct 134 can always maintain its relative position in the fixed cylinder.

[0071] The fixing cylinder 132 may also be provided with an oil inlet hole corresponding to the cylindrical part. Understandably, when the atomization component 13 is received in the first oil storage space 120, the aerosol-forming matrix in the first oil storage space 120 can enter the cylindrical part through the oil inlet hole, and then penetrate onto the heating mesh 133 and be heated by the heating mesh 133 to generate aerosol.

[0072] Furthermore, the fixing cylinder 132 may be provided with a plurality of oil inlet holes, and the plurality of oil inlet holes are evenly arranged on the fixing cylinder 132, so as to keep the penetration efficiency of the aerosol-forming matrix on the cylindrical part consistent, thereby ensuring the consistency of the aerosol concentration generated after the heating mesh 133 is heated.

[0073] Please refer to Figure 4 , the heating mesh 133 includes at least two heating pins 1331 and a heating mesh 1332. The at least two heating pins 1331 are arranged side by side at intervals, and the heating mesh 1332 is arranged between two adjacent heating pins 1331 and is electrically connected to the two adjacent heating pins 1331 respectively.

[0074] Among them, the heating mesh 1332 is attached to the inner surface of the cylindrical part to form a heating channel 1330. The heating mesh 1332 heats the aerosol-forming matrix penetrating on the cylindrical part to generate aerosol. The heating channel 1330 is communicated with the air guide pipe 134, and the aerosol formed by the heating mesh 1332 heating the aerosol-forming matrix is successively inhaled by the user through the heating channel 1330, the air guide pipe 134, and the suction hole 1130.

[0075] One end of the heating pin 1331 is electrically connected to the side of the heating mesh 1332, and the end of the heating pin 1331 far from the heating mesh 1332 extends out from one end of the fixing cylinder 132 close to the air guide pipe 134 and is electrically connected to the control component 15. The control component 15 is used to control the heating component 13 to heat the aerosol-forming matrix to generate aerosol.

[0076] Please continue to refer to Figure 3 , the aerosol generating device 10 may further include a sealing partition 17, and the sealing partition 17 is received on a side of the accommodating cavity 110 away from the main oil storage 12. The sealing partition 17 can divide other areas of the accommodating cavity 110 except the main oil storage 12 into a first functional area 171 and a second functional area 172, wherein the main oil storage 12, the first functional area 171, and the second functional area 172 are arranged in sequence along the length direction of the aerosol generating device 10. In this embodiment, the sealing partition 17 is made of silica gel material.

[0077] Among them, the sealing partition 17 may also be provided with air holes, and the air holes communicate with the first functional area 171 and the second functional area 172. The air inlet hole 1121 communicates with the second function 172, and the outside air enters the suction nozzle after passing through the air inlet hole 1121, the second functional area 172, the air hole, the first functional area, and the atomization component 13 in sequence.

[0078] In this embodiment, the battery 14, the control component 15, and the liquid guide tube 16 are accommodated in the first functional area 171. Specifically, the battery 14 and the liquid guide tube 16 are arranged side by side in the first functional area 171. The control component 15 is arranged on one side of the first functional area 171 close to the main oil storage chamber 12. Specifically, the control component 15 is located between the battery 14 and the main oil storage chamber 12 to facilitate the electrical connection between the control component 15 and the atomization core.

[0079] Please continue to refer to Figure 3 and Figure 4 , one end of the liquid guide tube 16 communicates with the first oil storage space 120 of the main oil storage chamber 12, and the end of the liquid guide tube 16 far from the first oil storage space 120 communicates with the transfer space 1721 of the second functional area 172, so that the aerosol generation matrix received by the transfer space 1721 can enter the first oil storage space 120 along the liquid guide tube 16. Specifically, the first sealing cover 122 is provided with a first mounting hole 1221, the sealing partition 17 is provided with a second mounting hole 171, one end of the oil guide tube 16 passes through the first mounting hole 1221 to communicate with the first oil storage space 120, and the end of the oil guide tube 16 far from the first oil storage space 120 passes through the second mounting hole 171 to communicate with the transfer space 1721 of the second functional area 172.

[0080] Please continue to refer to Figure 3 , in this embodiment, the control component 15 may include a circuit board, a charging head fixed on the circuit board, a microphone head, etc. The circuit board is clamped and fixed on the surface of the sealing partition 17 facing away from the first functional area. The charging head is accommodated in the second functional area 172 and is arranged corresponding to the charging port 1122 to facilitate charging the battery 14 by an external power source.
