[0048] like Figure 1 As shown, an embodiment provides an atomization device 1000 , including an atomization cup 210 , a heating element 220 , a filter cup 310 and a suction nozzle 330 .

[0049] The atomizer cup 210 is configured with a first receiving cavity 211 for accommodating an aerosol-generating substrate. Specifically, the aerosol-generating substrate can be contained within the atomizer cup 210. In some embodiments, the aerosol-generating substrate can be a solid, liquid, semi-solid, or powdered tobacco product or medical and healthcare product, and can have various flavors. Furthermore, the aerosol-generating substrate can be attached to a carrier such as ceramic, glass, porous metal, fiber, or wood, which can carry the aerosol-generating substrate and be contained within the atomizer cup 210.

[0050] The heating element 220 can be disposed on a side of the atomizer cup 210 away from the first accommodating chamber 211 , with a first gap 410 disposed between the heating element 220 and the atomizer cup 210 .

[0051] The filter cup 310 may be configured with a second chamber 311 for accommodating a filter matrix. The second chamber 311 may be in communication with the first chamber 211 and the nozzle 330, respectively. In some embodiments, the filter matrix may be a substance such as water or a fragrance solution, and may filter the aerosol. If the filter matrix includes fragrance, the aerosol may also be scented.

[0052] During use, the heater 220 heats the aerosol-generating matrix in the atomizer cup 210, causing it to release volatile substances and generate aerosol. The aerosol in the first chamber 211 is transferred to the second chamber 311, where it is filtered by the filter matrix to reduce harmful substances in the aerosol. The filtered aerosol is then discharged through the nozzle 330 for inhalation by the user.

[0053] In the embodiment of the present application, the heating element 220 is disposed outside the atomizer cup 210, with a first gap 410 disposed between the heating element 220 and the atomizer cup 210. Thus, non-contact heating of the aerosol generating substrate can be achieved, thereby preventing the aerosol generating substrate from being overheated and generating harmful substances, thereby reducing the impact on user health.

[0054] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, in some embodiments, the atomizing device 1000 further includes a housing assembly 100. The housing assembly 100 may include a first housing 110 and a second housing 120. The first housing 110 may be connected to one end of the second housing 120 by screw connection, clamping, or bonding, and the first housing 110 and the second housing 120 may cooperate to form a closed second assembly cavity 130.

[0055] In some embodiments, a first assembly cavity 111 is further configured on a side of the first housing 110 facing away from the second assembly cavity 130. The first assembly cavity 111 can be formed by recessing the first housing 110 toward the second housing 120. An opening structure 1111 can be configured on one end of the first assembly cavity 111 facing away from the second housing 120.

[0056] In some embodiments, the atomizer cup 210 may be made of aluminum foil, which may allow the atomizer cup 210 to have a thinner wall thickness and, at the same time, allow the atomizer cup 210 to have a higher thermal conductivity, thereby ensuring that the atomizer cup 210 is heated evenly throughout.

[0057] In an embodiment, the atomizer cup 210 may be disposed in the first assembly cavity 111 , and the atomizer cup 210 may be detachably disposed relative to the first housing 110 . For example, the atomizer cup 210 may be directly placed in the first assembly cavity 111 .

[0058] In some embodiments, the first assembly cavity 111 can be roughly in the shape of an inverted cone. A step structure 112 is configured on the side of the first housing 110 facing the first assembly cavity 111. The step structure 112 can protrude relative to the inner wall of the first assembly cavity 111 along the radial direction of the first assembly cavity 111. The step structure 112 is located near one end of the opening structure 1111.

[0059] In some embodiments, the atomizer cup 210 may also have an inverted conical shape that matches the shape of the first assembly cavity 111. The atomizer cup 210 can be placed in the first assembly cavity 111, and the end of the atomizer cup 210 near the opening structure 1111 can be snapped onto the step structure 112. In other words, the outer wall of the atomizer cup 210 facing away from the first accommodating cavity 211 can abut against the step structure 112. Thus, the step structure 112 can provide support for the atomizer cup 210.

[0060] like Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, the atomizing device 1000 further includes a cover plate 240. The cover plate 240 is detachably connected to the first housing 110 by screws or snaps, and covers the opening structure 1111 to seal the opening structure 1111. This facilitates user replacement of the atomizing cup 210 or replenishment or replacement of the aerosol-generating substrate in the atomizing cup 210.

[0061] In some embodiments, the end of the atomizer cup 210 facing the opening structure 1111 can also be configured as an opening 212 and communicate with the first assembly cavity 111. In some embodiments, the end of the atomizer cup 210 near the opening 212 is spaced from the cover plate 240 and a second gap 420 is formed.

[0062] In one embodiment, the cover plate 240 may be provided with an air inlet 241 that connects the outside environment to the opening 212 of the atomizer cup 210. During use, external air may enter the first assembly cavity 111 through the air inlet 241 and enter the atomizer cup 210 through the opening 212, where it reacts with the aerosol-forming substrate in the atomizer cup 210 to form an aerosol.

[0063] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, in some embodiments, the heating element 220 may be a structure in which food-grade ceramic is equipped with a heating element, wherein the heating element may be a combination of one or more of a heating wire, a heating mesh, a heating plate, and the like.

[0064] The heating element 220 is disposed in the first assembly cavity 111. The heating element 220 may also be in an inverted cone shape to match the shape of the first assembly cavity 111. In one embodiment, the heating element 220 may be mounted on the side of the atomizer cup 210 facing away from the first accommodating cavity 211, that is, the heating element 220 is mounted on the outside of the atomizer cup 210. The heating element 220 may be fixedly connected to the inner wall of the first assembly cavity 111 by gluing or other methods.

[0065] In addition, the heater 220 and the atomizer cup 210 are spaced apart, and a first gap 410 is formed between the heater 220 and the atomizer cup 210. The first gap 410 can be connected to the second gap 420. In some embodiments, the portion of the step structure 112 that protrudes from the side of the heater 220 near the atomizer cup 210 can be provided with a notch (not shown), which can be connected to the first gap 410 and the second gap 420, respectively.

[0066] In some embodiments, the heating element 220 is spaced apart from the bottom plate 1112 of the first assembly cavity 111 at an end away from the opening structure 1111, forming a third gap 430. In some embodiments, the heating element 220 is provided with a via 221 that connects the first gap 410 and the third gap 430.

[0067] During use, the aerosol generated in the atomizer cup 210 can enter the second gap 420 through the opening 212 and be transported to the second accommodating chamber 311 through the notch, the first gap 410 and the third gap 430 in sequence.

[0068] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the filter cup 310 can be connected to the side of the second housing 120 facing away from the first housing 110 by means of an interference fit, a snap-fit ​​connection, or an adhesive bond. Furthermore, the open end of the filter cup 310 can be sealed by the second housing 120, thereby forming a closed second accommodating cavity 311. Furthermore, a first sealing ring 510 is provided at the connection between the second housing 120 and the filter cup 310 to ensure a seal at the connection between the second housing 120 and the filter cup 310.

[0069] In some embodiments, the atomization device 1000 further includes a first air supply pipe 321. One end of the first air supply pipe 321 can be disposed through the bottom plate 1112 at the end of the first assembly chamber 111 away from the opening structure 1111 and communicate with the third gap 430. Furthermore, the first air supply pipe 321 can be disposed through the end of the second housing 120 near the filter cup 310 and inserted into the filter cup 310. In some embodiments, the end of the first air supply pipe 321 away from the third gap 430 can extend to the end of the filter cup 310 away from the second housing 120, that is, to the bottom of the filter cup 310. This ensures that the aerosol fully enters the filter matrix and is filtered by the filter matrix before being output.

[0070] In some embodiments, a second sealing ring 520 is disposed at the connection between the first gas pipe 321 and the second shell 120 to achieve sealing of the connection between the first gas pipe 321 and the second shell 120 .

[0071] In some embodiments, the first gas delivery pipe 321 may be made of food-grade stainless steel.

[0072] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the atomizing device 1000 further includes a second air supply pipe 322. A first connecting pipe portion 121 is disposed on one end of the second housing 120, adjacent to the filter cup 310, and communicates with the second accommodating chamber 311. The first connecting pipe portion 121 may protrude from the side of the second housing 120 facing the second assembly chamber 130. The second air supply pipe 322 may be disposed within the second assembly chamber 130, with one end of the second air supply pipe 322 connected to the first connecting pipe portion 121 and communicating with the second accommodating chamber 311 through the first connecting pipe portion 121.

[0073] In some embodiments, a second connecting tube portion 113 is further configured at one end of the first housing 110 away from the atomizer cup 210. The second connecting tube portion 113 may protrude from a side of the first housing 110 facing the second assembly cavity 130. The second gas pipe 322 may be connected to the second connecting tube portion 113 at one end away from the first connecting tube.

[0074] In some embodiments, the suction nozzle 330 can be protruding from a side of the first housing 110 facing away from the second assembly cavity 130 and can be integral with the first housing 110. In this embodiment, the suction nozzle 330 can be opposite and connected to the second connecting tube portion 113. Thus, the suction nozzle 330 can be connected to the second accommodating cavity 311 via the second air delivery tube 322, allowing the user to obtain filtered aerosol through the suction nozzle 330.

[0075] In some embodiments, the second air delivery tube 322 may be made of food-grade silicone.

[0076] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the atomizing device 1000 also includes an electronic assembly 600. In some embodiments, the electronic assembly 600 may include an electrically connected power supply battery 610 and a circuit board 620. The circuit board 620 may also be electrically connected to the heating element 220. It is understood that the circuit board 620 may be integrated with devices such as a memory and a processor to enable control of the operation of various electrical components in the atomizing device 1000. In some embodiments, the electronic assembly 600 may be disposed in the second assembly cavity 130.

[0077] In addition, the atomizing device 1000 also includes a heat insulating member 230. The heat insulating member 230 can be arranged between the heating member 220 and the inner wall of the first assembly cavity 111, which can prevent the heat generated by the heating member 220 from being transferred to the second assembly cavity 130, thereby avoiding problems such as abnormal operation of the electronic component 600 due to heat, extending the service life of the electronic component 600, and also extending the service life of the atomizing device 1000. At the same time, the heat generated by the heating member 220 can also be transferred to the atomizing cup 210 as much as possible, reducing heat waste, thereby improving energy utilization and achieving energy saving effects. In some embodiments, the heat insulating member 230 can be made of heat insulating materials such as food-grade heat-insulating and high-temperature resistant cotton.

[0078] During use, the user draws in air through the nozzle 330, creating a negative pressure within the atomizer cup 210. Under the influence of this negative pressure, external air can enter the atomizer cup 210 through the air inlet 241 and the second gap 420. Under the heating action of the heater 220, the aerosol-generating matrix releases volatile substances that mix with the gas to form an aerosol. The heated aerosol can move toward the cover plate 240 and enter the second gap 420. The aerosol can be transported to the first gap 410 through the second gap 420 and then enter the second accommodating chamber 311 of the filter cup 310 through the through-hole 221 and the first air supply pipe 321, where it comes into contact with the filter matrix. The filtered aerosol can then be transported to the nozzle 330 through the second air supply pipe 322 for inhalation by the user.
