[0055] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of this application to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of this application. Obviously, the embodiments described are only part of the embodiments of this application, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in this application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0056] like Figures 1 to 12 As shown, an embodiment of the present application provides an atomizer that can be used in an electronic cigarette. The provided atomizer includes an air outlet channel 100, an atomization channel 200, and a diversion channel 300.

[0057] The air guiding direction of the air outlet channel 100 is the first direction a, and the air outlet channel 100 is connected to the external atmosphere. The outlet end of the atomization channel 200 is connected to the air outlet channel 100, and the air guiding direction of the outlet end of the atomization channel 200 is the second direction b, which intersects with the first direction a.

[0058] The outlet end of the diversion channel 300 is connected to the atomization channel 200 . The air guiding direction of the outlet end of the diversion channel 300 is the third direction c. The third direction c intersects with the first direction a and the second direction b.

[0059] Under this structure, when the gas in the diversion channel 300 flows into the atomization channel 200, it can impact the airflow in the atomization channel 200, collide with the airflow in the atomization channel 200, and change the direction of the airflow in the atomization channel 200 when it enters the air outlet channel 100.

[0060] In the embodiment of the present application, the airflow in the diversion channel 300 can reduce the component of the airflow in the atomization channel 200 in the direction perpendicular to the first direction a when entering the air outlet channel 100 .

[0061] Specifically, such as Figure 1 As shown, in the direction perpendicular to the first direction a, the component of the air flow flux at the outlet end of the diverter channel 300 is the first component c1, and the component of the air flow flux at the outlet end of the atomizing channel 200 is the second component b1. The directions of the first component c1 and the second component b1 are opposite, and the absolute value of the sum of the first component c1 and the second component b1 is smaller than the absolute value of the second component b1, so that the airflow in the diverter channel 300 reduces the component of the airflow in the atomizing channel 200 in the direction perpendicular to the first direction a when entering the air outlet channel 100.

[0062] When the first component c1 and the second component b1 are equal in size, the airflow in the diversion channel 300 can eliminate the component of the airflow in the atomization channel 200 in the direction perpendicular to the first direction a when entering the air outlet channel 100. That is, when the first component c1 and the second component b1 are equal in size, the total airflow formed by the confluence of the airflow in the diversion channel 300 and the airflow in the atomization channel 200 flows along the first direction a, thereby minimizing the formation of condensation.

[0063] In the atomizer of the embodiment of the present application, a bypass channel 300 is added. The airflow in the bypass channel 300 can reduce the component of the airflow in the atomizing channel 200 in the direction perpendicular to the first direction a when entering the air outlet channel 100, thereby preventing the aerosol from colliding with the wall of the air outlet channel 100 when flowing from the atomizing channel 200 to the air outlet channel 100, or reducing the impact force of the aerosol on the inner wall of the air outlet channel 100 when flowing from the atomizing channel 200 to the air outlet channel 100, thereby reducing the kinetic energy of the particulate matter in the smoke impacting the inner wall of the air outlet channel 100 when using the atomizer, and reducing the generation of condensate. It can be seen from this that the embodiment of the present application can solve the problem in the related art that the extension directions of the atomizing channel and the air outlet channel of the atomizer intersect, and the aerosol in the atomizing channel collides with the wall of the air outlet channel when flowing to the air outlet channel to generate condensate.

[0064] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2In an embodiment of the present application, the second direction b may have a first angle α with the first direction a in a counterclockwise direction, and the first angle α is an acute angle. The third direction c may have a second angle β with the first direction a in a clockwise direction, and the second angle β may be an acute angle or a right angle, that is, the second angle β is greater than 0° and less than or equal to 90°. The first angle α may be equal to the second angle β or may not be equal to it. This document does not impose any restrictions on this.

[0065] It should be noted that the first angle α between the second direction b and the first direction a in the counterclockwise direction refers to the angle obtained when the straight line where the second direction b is located is rotated counterclockwise to the position of the straight line where the first direction a is located, with the straight line where the second direction b is located as the starting end, the straight line where the first direction a is located as the end end, and the intersection of the straight lines where the first direction a and the second direction b are located as the rotation center.

[0066] The second angle β between the third direction c and the first direction a in the clockwise direction refers to the angle obtained when the straight line where the third direction c is located is rotated clockwise to the position of the straight line where the first direction a is located, with the straight line where the third direction c is located as the starting end, the straight line where the first direction a is located as the end end, and the intersection of the first direction a and the straight line where the third direction c is located as the rotation center.

[0067] Under this structure, in the extension direction of the first direction a and the opposite direction thereof, the component of the airflow flux at the outlet end of the diverter channel 300 is the third component c2, and the third component c2 is in the same direction as the first direction a; the component of the airflow flux at the outlet end of the atomizing channel 200 is the fourth component b2, and the fourth component b2 is in the same direction as the first direction a. In this way, the outlet end of the atomizing channel 200 and the outlet end of the diverter channel 300 can be prevented from generating an airflow in the opposite direction to the first direction a, thereby ensuring that the airflow in the diverter channel 300 enters the atomizing channel 200 and the total airflow formed by merging with the airflow in the atomizing channel 200 can smoothly enter the air outlet channel 100.

[0068] In the above scheme, the outlet end of the diverter channel 300 is connected to the atomizing channel 200. In a preferred embodiment, the outlet end of the diverter channel 300 can be opened on the wall surface surrounding the outlet end of the atomizing channel 200, that is, the outlet end of the diverter channel 300 can be located at the outlet end of the atomizing channel 200.

[0069] In this case, it is possible to avoid the situation where the outlet end of the diversion channel 300 is located at the inlet end or the middle part of the atomization channel 200, and the total airflow formed by mixing the airflow in the atomization channel 200 and the airflow in the diversion channel 300 is redirected by the outlet end of the atomization channel 200 to form an airflow along the second direction b.

[0070] In a further technical solution, Figure 7As shown, in the fourth direction W perpendicular to the first direction a, the second direction b, and the third direction c, the width of the outlet end of the diversion channel 300 can be the first width W1, and the width of the outlet end of the atomization channel 200 can be the second width W2, and the first width W1 can be greater than or equal to the second width W2.

[0071] Optionally, when the outlet end of the diverter channel 300 is opened on the wall surface surrounding the outlet end of the atomizing channel 200, the first width W1 may be equal to the second width W2. When the outlet end of the diverter channel 300 is downstream of the outlet end of the atomizing channel 200 in the direction of airflow in the atomizing channel 200, the first width W1 may be greater than the second width W2.

[0072] The width of the outlet end of the diversion channel 300 is greater than or equal to the width of the outlet end of the atomization channel 200, which can prevent the problem that the part of the airflow in the atomization channel 200 located at the edge cannot be weakened or offset by the impact of the airflow in the diversion channel 300, thereby ensuring the effect of reducing the component of the airflow in the atomization channel 200 perpendicular to the first direction a.

[0073] Optionally, the outlet end of the diverter channel 300 may be opposite to the wall of the atomizing channel 200 having the atomizing core 520 . Furthermore, along the airflow direction in the atomizing channel 200 , the outlet end of the diverter channel 300 may be opposite to the downstream of the heating area of ​​the atomizing core 520 .

[0074] Along the gas guiding direction of the diversion channel 300, the outlet end of the diversion channel 300 can be a flared structure, and the width of the flared structure in the fourth direction W gradually increases. This structure can increase the impact area of ​​the diversion channel 300 on the atomization channel 200 at the confluence position of the atomization channel 200 and the diversion channel 300.

[0075] To ensure airflow in the atomizing channel 200 and the diverting channel 300, the inlet ends of the atomizing channel 200 and the diverting channel 300 are both connected to the outside atmosphere. Optionally, the inlet ends of the atomizing channel 200 and the diverting channel 300 can be directly connected to the outside atmosphere, or the inlet ends of the atomizing channel 200 and the diverting channel 300 can be connected to the outside atmosphere through an air inlet channel 400, that is, the atomizer can have two air inlet channels 400.

[0076] In another preferred embodiment, the atomizer may be provided with an air inlet channel 400, which is connected to the external atmosphere. The inlet end of the atomizing channel 200 and the inlet end of the diversion channel 300 may both be connected to the air inlet channel 400. That is, the atomizer has an air inlet channel 400. This structure can reduce the number of openings on the atomizer, which helps to seal the atomizer.

[0077] When the atomizing channel 200 and the diverter channel 300 are connected to the external atmosphere through the same air inlet channel 400, the flow rate of the diverter channel 300 can be smaller than the flow rate of the atomizing channel 200, so that more gas entering the atomizer enters the atomizing channel 200, so that more gas can be mixed with the atomized atomized liquid to form an aerosol, thereby improving the user experience.

[0078] Optionally, the ratio of the flow rate of the diverter channel 300 to the flow rate of the atomizing channel 200 can be 3:7, so as to ensure that the atomizing channel 200 effectively carries out the aerosol in the atomizing channel 200, and the airflow of the diverter channel 300 entering the atomizing channel 200 and the airflow of the atomizing channel 200 entering the air outlet channel 100 will not cause excessive impact and dilution, thereby reducing the amount of aerosol entering the air outlet channel 100. Of course, the ratio of the flow rate of the diverter channel 300 to the flow rate of the atomizing channel 200 can be adjusted according to the specific situation, and this application does not impose any restrictions on this.

[0079] In an embodiment of the present application, the air intake channel 400 can be a channel of equal diameter or a channel of unequal diameter. For example, the area of ​​the air inlet of the air intake channel 400 can be larger than the area of ​​the air outlet of the air intake channel 400. This structure helps to increase the flow rate of the gas in the air outlet of the air intake channel 400, thereby increasing the overall air intake speed of the air intake channel 400.

[0080] The area of ​​the cross section of the diversion channel 300 perpendicular to its own gas guiding direction may be a first area, that is, the cross-sectional area of ​​the diversion channel 300 is equal everywhere.

[0081] In other optional embodiments, along the gas guiding direction of the diverter channel 300 , the cross-sectional area of ​​the diverter channel 300 perpendicular to the gas guiding direction may gradually decrease to increase the flow rate of the gas at the outlet end of the diverter channel 300 .

[0082] In the specific structure of the atomizer, the atomizer includes an oil cup 600 and an atomizing assembly 500, wherein:

[0083] The oil cup 600 has an inner cavity, in which an air outlet pipe 610 is provided. The cavity of the air outlet pipe 610 forms at least part of the air outlet channel 100 , and the outlet end of the air outlet pipe 610 forms a suction nozzle 611 , which is connected to the external atmosphere.

[0084] The atomizing assembly 500 is arranged in the inner cavity, and the atomizing assembly 500 is provided with at least part of the atomizing channel 200 and the diverter channel 300, and the atomizing assembly 500 is provided with a connecting hole 511 cooperating with the outlet pipe 610, and the atomizing channel 200 and the diverter channel 300 are connected to the outlet channel 100 through the connecting hole 511.

[0085] Optionally, the outlet end of the atomizing channel 200 can be opposite to the connecting hole 511, and the inlet end of the air outlet pipe 610 can extend into the connecting hole 511, so that the atomizing channel 200 is connected to the tube cavity of the air outlet pipe 610 through the connecting hole 511, and the diversion channel 300 is connected to the atomizing channel 200, and then connected to the air outlet channel 100 through the atomizing channel 200; or, the outlet end of the atomizing channel 200 can be opposite to the connecting hole 511, the inlet end of the air outlet pipe 610 can be opposite to the connecting hole 511, and the connecting hole 511 can form a part of the air outlet channel 100, so that the atomizing channel 200 is connected to the air outlet channel 100, and the diversion channel 300 is connected to the atomizing channel 200, and then connected to the air outlet channel 100 through the atomizing channel 200.

[0086] In an optional embodiment, the atomizing channel 200 can be partially disposed on the atomizing assembly 500 and partially disposed on the oil cup 600, with the two portions connected to form a complete atomizing channel 200, and the portion of the atomizing channel 200 disposed on the oil cup 600 is connected to the external atmosphere, forming the air inlet end (inlet end) of the atomizing channel 200. Similarly, the diverter channel 300 can be partially disposed on the atomizing assembly 500 and partially disposed on the oil cup 600, with the two portions connected to form a complete atomizing channel 300, and the portion of the diverter channel 300 disposed on the oil cup 600 is connected to the external atmosphere, forming the air inlet end of the diverter channel 300.

[0087] In another optional embodiment, the atomizing channel 200 and the diverting channel 300 can all be arranged on the atomizing assembly 500, and the atomizing assembly 500 can include a bracket 510. The bracket 510 can be made of a flexible material such as silicone, so that the bracket 510 itself has sealing properties. The outer wall of the bracket 510 can be sealed with the cavity wall of the inner cavity of the oil cup 600, so that the inner cavity wall of the oil cup 600, the outer wall of the air outlet pipe 610 and the bracket 510 together form a sealed liquid storage cavity 620. The liquid storage cavity 620 is used to store atomizing medium, such as smoke liquid, oil liquid, or other atomizing liquid. This structure can improve the sealing between the atomizing assembly 500 and the oil cup 600, thereby improving the sealing performance of the atomizer.

[0088] The atomization assembly 500 also includes an air duct component 540. The bracket 510 is provided with an installation chamber and a connecting hole 511 connected to the installation chamber. The air duct component 540 is arranged in the installation chamber, and at least part of the atomization channel 200 is formed in the air duct component 540. At least part of the diversion channel 300 is formed in the air duct component 540.

[0089] Specifically, the atomizer assembly 500 further includes an atomizer core 520. In an optional embodiment, the airway member 540 may be provided with a first air guide recess 541, and the atomizer core 520 is disposed in the mounting compartment. The first air guide recess 541 may be opposite to the atomizer core 520, and the first air guide recess 541 may cooperate with the atomizer core 520 to enclose an atomization channel 200. In other words, the atomizer core 520 encloses a portion of the atomization channel 200, and the surface of the atomizer core 520 enclosing the atomization channel 200 (i.e., the atomizing surface) intersects with the first direction a.

[0090] The atomizing core 520 is used to heat and atomize the atomizing medium. The atomized atomizing medium mixes with the gas in the atomizing channel 200 to form an aerosol. In the embodiment in which the first gas-guiding recess 541 and the atomizing core 520 enclose the atomizing channel 200, in order to allow the atomizing medium to enter the atomizing core 520, an oil hole 512 can be opened on the wall of the installation bin, and the outer end of the oil hole 512 is exposed in the liquid storage chamber 620. The atomizing core 520 can abut against the inner wall of the installation bin, and a local area of ​​the atomizing core 520 is opposite to the oil hole 512, so that the atomizing medium in the liquid storage chamber 620 can enter the atomizing core 520 through the oil hole 512.

[0091] Specifically, the atomizer core 520 may include an oil guide body 521 and a heating element 522. The oil guide body 521 has a liquid absorption surface facing the oil passage hole 512 and an atomizing surface opposite the liquid absorption surface. The heating element 522 is disposed on the atomizing surface of the oil guide body 521. The oil guide body 521 and the heating element 522 may be connected to the airway component 540 by means of a snap connection or the like (for example, the airway component 540 may be provided with a snap connection protrusion, and the oil guide body 521 and the heating element 522 may be provided with a snap connection groove, and are snap-connected via the snap connection groove and the snap connection protrusion). The oil passage hole 512 abuts against the inner wall of the mounting chamber and communicates with the liquid storage chamber 620. The heating element 522 may face the first air guide recess 541. It is understood that the heating element 522 and the oil guide body 521 may also be clamped between the airway component 540 and the inner wall of the bracket 510.

[0092] In this embodiment, the atomizer core 520 may be a flat structure, including a plate-shaped oil guide body 521 and a heating body 522 , and the heating body 522 is disposed on one side surface of the oil guide body 521 .

[0093] In another optional embodiment, the air duct member 540 may be provided with a first perforation, the atomization channel 200 includes the first perforation, the first perforation passes through the air duct member 540, and the two ports of the first perforation are arranged on the outer wall surface of the air duct member 540 to respectively form the inlet end and the outlet end of the atomization channel 200, and the atomization core 520 may be located in the first perforation.

[0094] In this embodiment, the atomizer core 520 can be a columnar structure, including a hollow cylindrical oil guide body 521 and a heating body 522, and the heating body 522 is arranged on the inner wall of the oil guide body 521; alternatively, the atomizer core 520 can also be a flat structure, including a plate-shaped oil guide body 521 and a heating body 522, and the heating body 522 is arranged on one side surface of the oil guide body 521.

[0095] In the structure in which the diverter channel 300 is entirely provided on the atomizing assembly 500, in an optional embodiment, the airway member 540 may be provided with a second air-guiding recess 542, which may be opposite to the inner wall of the mounting chamber, and the second air-guiding recess 542 may cooperate with the inner wall of the mounting chamber to enclose the diverter channel 300. Along its own air-guiding direction, the end of the second air-guiding recess 542 extends to the end of the first air-guiding recess 541, and the end of the second air-guiding recess 542 is connected to the end of the first air-guiding recess 541, that is, the downstream end of the second air-guiding recess 542 is formed at the outlet end of the atomizing channel 200, so that the outlet end of the diverter channel 300 is connected to the outlet end of the atomizing channel 200. In this structure, the second air-guiding recess 542 is located on the outer surface of the airway member 540, which is convenient for processing. Therefore, this structure also facilitates the processing of the diverter channel 300.

[0096] The second air-guiding recess 542 on the airway member 540 cooperates with the inner wall of the mounting compartment of the bracket 510 to form the diversion channel 300. To ensure the sealing performance of the diversion channel 300, the airway member 540 can be made of a material with sealing properties, such as silicone. In this way, the materials of the airway member 540 and the bracket 510 both have sealing properties. The combined sealing performance of the two is excellent, which can enhance the sealing performance of the diversion channel 300. Optionally, the airway member 540 can be directly snapped into the mounting position of the airway member 540 in the mounting compartment. The airway member 540 can also be connected to the bracket 510 by a separate snap-fit ​​structure. The specific connection method of the airway member 540 and the bracket 510 is not limited in this application.

[0097] In another optional embodiment, the airway member 540 may be provided with a second perforation, and the diverter channel 300 includes the second perforation. The inlet end of the diverter channel 300 (i.e., one of the ports of the first perforation) may be formed on the outer wall surface of the airway member 540 that is not opposite the atomizer core 520, for example, the outer wall surface opposite the atomizer core 520. Along the air guide direction thereof, the downstream port of the second perforation may be formed at the outlet end of the atomizer channel 200. For example, the outlet end of the diverter channel 300 (i.e., the other port of the second perforation) may be formed on the inner wall of the first air guide recess 541 that is used to enclose the outlet end of the atomizer channel 200, so that the outlet end of the diverter channel 300 is connected to the outlet end of the atomizer channel 200. In this case, the diverter channel 300 can extend in a straight line without bending or turning, thereby reducing energy loss of the airflow in the diverter channel 300.

[0098] The atomizer assembly 500 also includes a base 530. Part of the base 530 can be extended into the installation compartment and block the compartment opening of the installation compartment. Part of the base 530 can be connected to the inner cavity of the oil cup 600 by snap-fitting or other means to complete the assembly of the bracket 510, the atomizer core 520, the base 530, and the airway component 540. The base 530 can be provided with an air inlet pipe 531. The tube cavity of the air inlet pipe 531 forms an air inlet channel 400, and the air inlet channel 400 is connected to the external atmosphere.

[0099] The air channel member 540 may be provided with an accommodating notch 543, into which at least a portion of the air inlet pipe 531 extends. A main air channel 700 is formed between the accommodating notch 543 and the air inlet pipe 531. Both the atomizing channel 200 and the diverter channel 300 are connected to the air inlet channel 400 via the main air channel 700. The flow area of ​​the main air channel 700 may be larger than the flow area of ​​the diverter channel 300, so that after the gas in the air inlet channel 400 enters the main air channel 700, the gas in the main air channel 700 can be supplied to the atomizing channel 200 and the diverter channel 300.

[0100] Specifically, part of the opening of the accommodating notch 543 can be opposite to the inner warehouse wall of the bracket 510, and part of the opening can be opposite to the inner bottom surface of the base 530. The cross-sectional area of ​​the accommodating notch 543 (the area of ​​the cross section perpendicular to the direction of airflow in the air intake channel 400) is larger than the cross-sectional area of ​​the air intake channel 400, so that the accommodating notch 543, the bracket 510, the base 530 and the air intake pipe 531 together form the main air duct 700.

[0101] There are various structures for achieving the connection between the atomization channel 200 and the main air channel 700. In an optional embodiment, one end of the first air guide recess 541 can extend to the inner wall of the accommodating notch 543 to connect the atomization channel 200 with the main air channel 700. The diversion channel 300 can also achieve the connection between the diversion channel 300 and the main air channel 700 by extending one end of the second air guide recess 542 to the inner wall of the accommodating notch 543. That is, one end of the second air guide recess 542 can be formed on the inner wall of the accommodating notch 543 to connect the diversion channel 300 with the main air channel 700.

[0102] In another optional embodiment, the inner bottom surface of the base 530 is provided with a support protrusion 532, the air duct member 540 is supported on the support protrusion 532, and a liquid collecting chamber is formed between the bottom surface of the air duct member 540 and the inner bottom surface of the base 530. The inlet end of the first air guide recess 541 is opposite to the liquid collecting chamber, and the accommodating notch 543 includes an opening toward the liquid collecting chamber so that the main air duct 700 is connected to the liquid collecting chamber, and the atomization channel 200 is connected to the main air duct 700 through the liquid collecting chamber.

[0103] This structure can reduce the number of openings in the airway member 540, thereby improving the structural strength of the airway member 540. Furthermore, leaked liquid or condensed liquid in the atomizing channel 200 can be collected in the liquid collecting chamber. The diverter channel 300 is connected to the liquid collecting chamber via the main airway 700, so that leaked liquid or condensed liquid in the diverter channel 300 can be collected in the liquid collecting chamber.

[0104] In addition, since at least part of the air inlet pipe 531 extends into the accommodating notch 543, the height difference between the port of the air inlet pipe 531 located inside the atomizer and the liquid collecting chamber is increased, making it difficult for the liquid in the liquid collecting chamber to leak outward through the main air channel 700 and the air inlet channel 400, thereby improving the reliability of the atomizer.

[0105] Optionally, there can be multiple supporting protrusions 532, and the multiple supporting protrusions 532 are distributed at intervals to more stably support the airway component 540. The atomizer also includes two electrodes 800, and the two electrodes 800 can respectively pass through a supporting protrusion 532 to achieve electrical connection with the atomizing core 520, so that the internal structure of the atomizer is more compact, which facilitates the miniaturization design of the atomizer.

[0106] A suction member 550 may be mounted on the inner bottom surface of the base 530. The height of the suction member 550 may be less than the height of the support protrusion 532, so that a gap exists between the bottom surface of the airway member 540 and the suction member 550, thereby allowing the main airway 700 to communicate with the atomization channel 200 through the gap. The suction member 550 is used to absorb leaked liquid and condensed liquid, reducing the risk of leakage of liquid and condensed liquid through the liquid collection chamber, the main airway 700, and the air inlet channel 400 during use of the atomizer, further improving the reliability of the atomizer.
