[0046] In order to facilitate the understanding of the present application, the present application is described in more detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. It should be noted that when an element is described as "locked to" another element, it can be directly on the other element, or there can be one or more centered elements between them. When an element is described as "connected to" another element, it can be directly connected to the other element, or there can be one or more centered elements between them. The terms "vertical", "horizontal", "left", "right" and similar expressions used in this specification are for illustrative purposes only.

[0047] Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used in this specification have the same meanings as those commonly understood by those skilled in the art to which this application belongs. The terms used in this specification and in the specification of this application are only for the purpose of describing specific embodiments and are not intended to limit this application. The term "and / or" as used in this specification includes any and all combinations of one or more of the relevant listed items.

[0048] See also Figure 1 、 Figure 4 、 Figure 5 and Figure 6 The aerosol generating system 100 includes a cigarette cartridge 10 and a power supply 20 .

[0049] The cigarette cartridge 10 includes a first heating element 11, a first battery cell 12, a first switching circuit 13 connected in series between the first heating element 11 and the first battery cell 12, and a first control circuit 14 electrically connected to the first switching circuit 13. The cigarette cartridge also includes a first electrical connection point 101 connected to the first heating element 11 and the first switching circuit 13 respectively.

[0050] The power supply 20 can be connected to or separated from the cigarette cartridge 10. The power supply 20 includes a second battery cell 21, a second switch circuit 22 and a second electrical connection point 201 electrically connected in sequence, and a second control circuit 23 electrically connected to the second switch circuit 22.

[0051] It can be understood that the power supply 20 can include a cigarette rod, a cigarette box, a power bank, etc. in form to achieve connection or separation with the cigarette cartridge 10.

[0052] When the cigarette cartridge 10 and the power supply 20 are in a separated state, the first control circuit 14 is configured to control the first switch circuit 13 to operate in an on state, so that the first battery cell 12 provides power to the first heating element 11 .

[0053] As can be seen, the first battery cell 12 is an independent power source for the cigarette cartridge 10, allowing the cigarette cartridge 10 to be smoked independently. The first control circuit 14 controls the first switch circuit 13 to be turned on or off, thereby switching on or off the current loop between the first battery cell 12 and the first heating element 11.

[0054] When the cigarette cartridge 10 is in a connected state with the power supply 20, the first electrical connection point 101 and the second electrical connection point 201 remain electrically connected, thereby establishing a power supply path between the second battery cell 21 and the first heating element 11, and the second control circuit 23 is configured to be able to control the second switching circuit 22 to be turned on, so that the second battery cell 21 provides power to the first heating element 11.

[0055] The first control circuit 14 is configured to trigger and control the first switch circuit 13 to operate in an off state in response to the connection between the cigarette cartridge 10 and the power supply 20 , thereby cutting off the current path between the second battery cell 21 and the first battery cell 12 .

[0056] In one example, the power supply 20 includes a storage chamber for accommodating the cigarette cartridge 10. The cigarette cartridge 10 and the power supply 20 are in a connected state, including placing at least a portion of the cigarette cartridge 10 in the storage chamber of the power supply 20. For example, the cigarette cartridge 10 includes a main body and a mouthpiece portion connected to the main body. During use, the main body of the cigarette cartridge 10 can be accommodated in the storage chamber of the power supply 20 and the mouthpiece portion is exposed, so that the cigarette cartridge 10 and the power supply 20 are combined into an integral atomization device, which is provided to the user for inhalation. It is understandable that the cigarette cartridge 10 and the power supply 20 can be combined by a physical connection method, so that a part of the cigarette cartridge 10 is retained in the storage chamber of the power supply 20. Common physical connection methods can be magnetic connection, plug-in connection, snap-on connection, threaded connection or interference fit. When the cigarette cartridge 10 and the power supply 20 are in a connected state, the first electrical connection point 101 and the second electrical connection point 201 remain electrically connected.

[0057] In one example, the first electrical connection point 101 is a spring pin, and the second electrical connection point 201 is a contact. As previously described, the second electrical connection point 201 is exposed on the surface of the storage chamber. When the cigarette cartridge 10 is placed in the storage chamber, the first electrical connection point 101 and the second electrical connection point 201 abut against each other, thereby achieving electrical connection between the first electrical connection point 101 and the second electrical connection point 201.

[0058] It is understood that the first electrical connection point 101 and the second electrical connection point 201 can be other electrical connection combinations. For example, the first electrical connection point 101 is a contact point, and the second electrical connection point 201 is a spring pin. For another example, the first electrical connection point 101 and the second electrical connection point 201 are both welding points, and the first electrical connection point 101 and the second electrical connection point 201 are electrically connected by welding the first electrical connection point 101 and the second electrical connection point 201.

[0059] like Figure 4 As shown, the first battery cell 12 is used to output the voltage VBAT1.

[0060] In one example, the first battery cell 12 is a disposable battery cell. If the first battery cell 12 is low or completely depleted, the first battery cell 12 can be replaced to provide power to the first heating element 11 when the cigarette cartridge 10 and the power supply 20 are disconnected. Alternatively, when the cigarette cartridge 10 and the power supply 20 are connected, the second battery cell 21 can be switched to provide power to the first heating element 11. In this case, the power level of the first battery cell 12 does not need to be considered.

[0061] In one example, the first battery cell 12 is a rechargeable battery cell. The first battery cell 12 can be any suitable power source, such as a DC source, such as a battery. In one example, the battery is a lithium-ion battery. Alternatively, the battery can be a nickel metal hydride battery, a nickel cadmium battery, or a lithium-based battery, such as a lithium cobalt, lithium iron phosphate, lithium titanate, or lithium polymer battery. It is understood that the first battery cell 12 can be charged by the charging circuit built into the cigarette cartridge 10, and can also be charged by the second battery cell 12 using the charging circuit built into the power supply 20.

[0062] The cigarette cartridge 10 further includes an electrical connection point PEN_GND and an electrical connection point PEN_VBAT1 . The electrical connection point PEN_GND is grounded, and the electrical connection point PEN_VBAT1 is electrically connected to the first switch circuit 13 .

[0063] In one example, the electrical connection point PEN_GND and the electrical connection point PEN_VBAT1 are electrically connected to the positive and negative electrodes of the first battery cell 12 , respectively. That is, the electrical connection point PEN_GND and the electrical connection point PEN_VBAT1 are electrode contacts of the first battery cell 12 .

[0064] In one example, the electrical connection point PEN_GND and the electrical connection point PEN_VBAT1 can be omitted, the positive electrode of the first battery cell 12 is used to provide the output voltage VBAT1 for the first switching circuit 13, and the negative electrode of the first battery cell 12 is grounded.

[0065] In some embodiments, the first switch circuit 13 includes a PMOS transistor Q3 , a PMOS transistor Q4 , an NMOS transistor Q5 , a resistor R3 , and a resistor R4 .

[0066] The drain of the PMOS transistor Q3 is electrically connected to the first battery cell 12 (the electrical connection point PEN_VBAT1 shown in the figure is used to receive the output voltage VBAT1 of the first battery cell 12), the source of the PMOS transistor Q3 is electrically connected to the source of the PMOS transistor Q4, the gate of the PMOS transistor Q3 is electrically connected to the drain of the NMOS transistor Q5 and the gate of the PMOS transistor Q4, respectively, the drain of the PMOS transistor Q4 is electrically connected to the first electrical connection point 101, the gate of the NMOS transistor Q5 is electrically connected to the first control circuit 14 (the gate of the NMOS transistor Q5 has an OUT1 pin, which is electrically connected to the OUT1 pin of the control chip U1), the source of the NMOS transistor Q5 is grounded, the resistor R3 is electrically connected between the drain of the PMOS transistor Q3 and the gate of the NMOS transistor Q5, and the resistor R4 is electrically connected between the source of the PMOS transistor Q3 and the gate of the PMOS transistor Q3.

[0067] Specifically, when the cigarette cartridge 10 and the power supply 20 are in a separated state, the control chip U1 outputs a driving level from the OUT1 pin to the gate of the third NMOS tube Q5 in response to the puffing action, satisfying the conduction condition of the NMOS tube Q5, and the NMOS tube Q5 is turned on, thereby pulling down the gate voltage of the PMOS tube Q3 and the gate voltage of the PMOS tube Q4, satisfying the conduction condition of the PMOS tube Q3 and the PMOS tube Q4, and both the PMOS tube Q3 and the PMOS tube Q4 are turned on, so that the output voltage VBAT1 of the first battery cell 12 reaches the first heating element 11 through the PMOS tube Q3 and the PMOS tube Q4, providing power for the first heating element 11.

[0068] like Figure 5 As shown, the first control circuit 14 includes a control chip U1 and its peripheral circuits. Among them, the control chip U1 includes an OUT1 pin, a MIC_OUT pin, a VDD pin, a GND pin, an electrical connection point 104, and an electrical connection point 105. The peripheral circuit of the control chip U1 includes a resistor R8 and a capacitor C1. The resistor R8 is electrically connected between the first battery cell 12 and the VDD pin of the control chip U1. One end of the capacitor C1 is electrically connected between the resistor R8 and the VDD pin of the control chip U1, and the other end of the capacitor C1 is grounded. The GND pin of the control chip U1 is grounded. When the cigarette cartridge 10 is in a connected state with the power supply 20, the electrical connection point 104 and the electrical connection point 105 are used to maintain electrical connection with the corresponding electrical connection points of the cigarette cartridge 10 respectively, so as to realize data communication between the control chip U1 and the second control circuit 23.

[0069] In some embodiments, the first control circuit 14 may be omitted. In this case, the first switch circuit 13 may be controlled to be turned on or off by, for example, an airflow sensor controller.

[0070] like Figure 6 As shown, the second battery cell 21 is used to output the voltage VBAT2.

[0071] In the embodiment of the present application, the second battery cell 12 is a rechargeable battery cell that can be recharged to replenish its power when its power is low or nearly depleted. The second battery cell 12 can be any suitable power source, such as a DC source, such as a battery. In one example, the battery is a lithium-ion battery. Alternatively, the battery can be a nickel metal hydride battery, a nickel cadmium battery, or a lithium-based battery, such as a lithium cobalt, lithium iron phosphate, lithium titanate, or lithium polymer battery.

[0072] In some embodiments, the second switch circuit 22 includes a PMOS transistor Q6 , an NMOS transistor Q7 , a resistor R5 , and a resistor R6 .

[0073] The source of the PMOS tube Q6 is electrically connected to the second battery cell 21 (for receiving the output voltage VBAT2 of the second battery cell 21), the drain of the PMOS tube Q6 is electrically connected to the second electrical connection point 201, the gate of the PMOS tube Q6 is electrically connected to the drain of the NMOS tube Q7, the gate of the NMOS tube Q7 is electrically connected to the second control circuit 23 (the gate of the NMOS tube Q7 has a PWM2 pin, which is electrically connected to the PWM2 pin of the second control circuit 23, and the second control circuit 23 is not shown in the figure), the source of the NMOS tube Q7 is grounded, the resistor R5 is electrically connected between the source of the PMOS tube Q6 and the gate of the PMOS tube Q6, and the resistor R6 is electrically connected between the gate of the NMOS tube Q7 and the ground terminal.

[0074] Specifically, when the cigarette cartridge 10 is in a connected state with the power supply 20, the first electrical connection point 101 and the second electrical connection point 201 remain electrically connected, and the control chip U1 triggers the output of the driving level from the OUT1 pin to the gate of the NMOS tube Q5 in response to the connection between the cigarette cartridge 10 and the power supply 20. The conduction condition of the NMOS tube Q5 is not met, and the NMOS tube Q5 is turned off, thereby not meeting the conduction conditions of the PMOS tube Q3 and the PMOS tube Q4. The PMOS tube Q3 and the PMOS tube Q4 are both turned off, and the current loop between the first battery cell 12 and the first heating element 11 is cut off; at the same time, the second control circuit 2 The PWM2 pin outputs a drive voltage to the gate of the NMOS transistor Q7, satisfying the conduction condition of the NMOS transistor Q7. The NMOS transistor Q7 is turned on, thereby pulling down the gate voltage of the PMOS transistor Q6. This satisfies the conduction condition of the PMOS transistor Q6, causing the PMOS transistor Q6 to be turned on. The output voltage VBAT2 of the second battery cell 21 passes through the PMOS transistor Q6, the second electrical connection point 201, and the first electrical connection point 101 to reach the first heating element 11 (the two pins of the first heating element 11 are electrically connected to the electrical connection points WH1 and WH2, respectively), providing power to the first heating element 11. Because the PMOS transistors Q3 and Q4 are both turned off, the output voltage VBAT2 of the second battery cell 21 cannot continue to pass through the PMOS transistors Q3 and Q4 to reach the first battery cell 12 after passing through the PMOS transistor Q6, the second electrical connection point 201, and the first electrical connection point 101. This shuts down the current loop between the second battery cell 21 and the first battery cell 12.

[0075] It should be noted that the capacity of the second battery cell 12 is greater than that of the first battery cell 12. When the cigarette cartridge 10 is connected to the power supply 20, the second battery cell 12 preferably provides power to the first heating element 11, thereby reducing the power consumption of the first battery cell 12. In addition, due to the larger capacity of the second battery cell 12, on the one hand, it can improve the endurance of the cigarette cartridge 10, and on the other hand, it can also increase the output power of the cigarette cartridge 10, increase the amount of smoke, and enhance the user experience.

[0076] In summary, when the cigarette cartridge 10 is connected to the power supply 20, the first control circuit 14 immediately controls the first switch circuit 13 to turn off, so as to cut off the current loop between the first battery cell 12 and the first heating element 11, cut off the power supply to the first battery cell 12, avoid power consumption of the first battery cell 12, and save energy. In addition, the first switch circuit 13 operates in the off state, thereby cutting off the current path between the second battery cell 21 and the first battery cell 12, thereby achieving isolation between the first battery cell 12 and the second battery cell 12, and preventing voltage backflow from occurring in the first battery cell 12 and the second battery cell 12. At the same time, the second control circuit 23 immediately controls the second switch circuit 22 to turn on, so that the second battery cell 21 provides power to the first heating element 11, so that the first heating element 11 switches from the first battery cell 12 to the second battery cell 21 for power supply.

[0077] See also Figure 2 、 Figure 5 、 Figure 7 and Figure 8 ,exist Figure 1 Based on the provided embodiment, the power supply 20 also includes a signal transmission unit 24, which is electrically connected to the second control circuit 23. The signal transmission unit 24 is configured to establish a communication connection between the first control circuit 14 and the second control circuit 23 when the cigarette cartridge 10 is in a connected state with the power supply 20.

[0078] In an example, the signal transmission unit 24 includes a first signal transmission circuit 241 and a second signal transmission circuit 242 .

[0079] The first signal transmission circuit 241 includes a third electrical connection point 202. When the cigarette cartridge 10 and the power supply 20 are in a connected state, the first signal transmission circuit 241 establishes an electrical connection with the first control circuit 14 through the third electrical connection point 202 and is configured to transmit cigarette cartridge data between the first control circuit 14 and the second control circuit 23.

[0098] On the basis of any of the above embodiments, the cigarette cartridge 10 further includes a second heating element 16 . When the cigarette cartridge 10 is connected to the power supply 20 , the second heating element 16 establishes an electrical connection with the power supply 20 .

[0099] The power supply 20 provides power to the first heating element 11 and the second heating element 16. Because the second battery cell 21 of the power supply 20 is a high-capacity cell, it can support the simultaneous operation of the first heating element 11 and the second heating element 16, thereby increasing the output power of the cigarette cartridge 10, increasing the amount of vapor produced, and improving the user experience. In some embodiments, the number of heating elements in the cigarette cartridge 10 can be greater than two.

[0100] The cigarette cartridge 10 further includes a fifth electrical connection point 102 and a sixth electrical connection point 103 electrically connected to both ends of the second heating element 16. The sixth electrical connection point 103 is grounded. The power supply further includes a seventh electrical connection point 204 and an eighth electrical connection point 205. The eighth electrical connection point 205 is grounded.

[0101] Among them, when the cigarette cartridge 10 and the power supply 20 are in a connected state, the fifth electrical connection point 102 and the seventh electrical connection point 204 remain electrically connected, and the sixth electrical connection point 103 and the eighth electrical connection point 205 remain electrically connected.

[0102] For example, the second heating element 16 includes a third pin and a fourth pin, the third pin is electrically connected to the fifth electrical connection point 102 , and the fourth pin is electrically connected to the sixth electrical connection point 103 .

Thus, the second pin of the first heating element 11 and the fourth pin of the second heating element 16 share one pin, both are electrically connected to the electrical connection point WH2, and the electrical connection point WH2 is grounded, that is, the second heating element 16 and the first heating element 11 share one ground pin.

[0105] Furthermore, the electrical connection point WH1 has a MIC_OUT pin, which is electrically connected to Figure 5 The MIC_OUT pin of the control chip U1 and the airflow sensor J1 are shown. The puff signal generated by the airflow sensor J1 is sent to the MIC_OUT pin of the control chip U1 via the MIC_OUT pin. The electrical connection point WH2 is also electrically connected to the sixth electrical connection point 103, and the electrical connection point WH3 is also electrically connected to the fifth electrical connection point 102. It can be seen that by setting the second heating element 16 and the first heating element 11 to share a ground pin, the number of connection points can be reduced, the structure can be simplified, space can be saved, and the miniaturization of the cigarette cartridge 10 can be facilitated.

[0106] In some embodiments, the cigarette cartridge 10 further includes a resistor R7, which is electrically connected between the airflow sensor J1 and the MIC_OUT pin of the control chip U1 to prevent signal interference.

[0111] In one example, the detection circuit 25 includes a first sampling circuit 251 and a resistance detection circuit 252 .

[0112] The first sampling circuit 251 is electrically connected between the seventh electrical connection point 204 and the ground terminal. The first sampling circuit 251 is provided with a first sampling node, which is electrically connected to the second control circuit 23. The first sampling circuit 251 is configured to output a first sampling voltage from the first sampling node so that the second control circuit 23 detects whether the cigarette cartridge 10 and the power supply 20 are in a connected state based on the first sampling voltage.

[0113] like Figure 9 As shown, the first sampling circuit 251 includes a resistor R9 and a resistor R10 connected in series. One end of the resistor R9 is electrically connected to the seventh electrical connection point 204, and one end of the resistor R10 is grounded. A first sampling node 25a is provided between the connection line between the resistors R9 and R10. The first sampling node 25a leads to the ADC1 pin, which is electrically connected to the ADC1 pin of the second control circuit 23. The voltage at the seventh electrical connection point 204 sampled by the resistors R9 and R10 is output as a first sampled voltage from the ADC1 pin and sent to the second control circuit 23, so that the second control circuit 23 detects whether the cigarette cartridge 10 and the power supply 20 are connected based on the first sampled voltage.

[0114] The resistance detection circuit 252 is electrically connected between the second battery cell 21 and the seventh electrical connection point 204, and is electrically connected to the second control circuit 23 and the first sampling circuit 251 respectively. The resistance detection circuit 252 is configured to output a second sampling voltage from the first sampling node through the first sampling circuit 251 when the cigarette cartridge 10 is in a connected state with the power supply 20, so that the second control circuit 23 detects the resistance of the second heating element 16 based on the second sampling voltage.

[0116] Specifically, when the cigarette cartridge 10 is in a connected state with the power supply 20, the EN pin of the second control circuit 23 outputs a driving level to the gate of the NMOS tube Q9, satisfying the conduction condition of the NMOS tube Q9. The NMOS tube Q9 is turned on, thereby lowering the gate voltage of the PMOS tube Q8. The PMOS tube Q8 meets the conduction condition, and the PMOS tube Q8 is turned on, thereby selecting the current loop of the second battery cell 21, the PMOS tube Q8, the resistor R11 and the capacitor C2.

[0117] It is understood that the first sampling circuit 251 and the resistance detection circuit 252 can operate alternately. For example, the ADC1 pin of the second control circuit 23 and the EN pin of the second control circuit 23 can be controlled to periodically output a drive level, so that the first sampling circuit 251 and the resistance detection circuit 252 can operate alternately. For another example, the duty cycle of the drive level output by the ADC1 pin of the second control circuit 23 and the EN pin of the second control circuit 23 can be controlled to cause the first sampling circuit 251 and the resistance detection circuit 252 to operate alternately.

[0118] Based on the above embodiment, the power supply 20 also includes a drive circuit 26, which is electrically connected to the second control circuit 23, the second battery cell 21 and the seventh electrical connection point 204. The second control circuit 23 is configured to output a drive signal of corresponding power according to the resistance value of the second heating element 16, so that the drive circuit 26 drives the second heating element 16 based on the drive signal.

[0120] It can be understood that the duty cycle of the PWM1 pin of the second control circuit 23 is controlled according to the resistance value of the second heating element 16, thereby realizing the power regulation function of the second heating element 16 and improving the heating effect.

[0121] In the embodiment of the present application, the power supply 20 provides power to the first heating element 11 and the second heating element 16. The power of the first heating element 11 is not adjustable, while the power of the second heating element 16 is adjustable. In some embodiments, the power of the first heating element 11 and the second heating element 16 are both adjustable, or the power of the first heating element 11 and the second heating element 16 are both not adjustable.

The second sampling circuit 27 is configured to be turned on or off according to the control of the second control circuit 23, and outputs a third sampling voltage from the second sampling node when turned on, so that the second control circuit 23 detects whether the current path between the second battery cell 21 and the first battery cell 12 is in an off state based on the third sampling voltage.

[0123] Please refer again Figure 6 The second sampling circuit 27 includes a resistor R16 and a resistor R17 connected in series. One end of the resistor R16 is electrically connected between the third PMOS transistor Q6 and the second electrical connection point 201. One end of the resistor R17 has a Check pin, which is electrically connected to the Check pin of the second control circuit 23. A second sampling node 27a is located between the connection line between the resistors R16 and R17. The second sampling node 27a leads to an ADC2 pin, which is electrically connected to the ADC2 pin of the second control circuit 23. The Check pin of the second control circuit 23 outputs a control signal to determine whether the second sampling circuit 27 is enabled. When the second sampling circuit 27 is enabled, the resistors R16 and R17 sample the voltage at the second electrical connection point 201, output a third sampled voltage from the ADC2 pin, and send it to the second control circuit 23. Based on the third sampled voltage, the second control circuit 23 detects whether the current path between the second battery cell 21 and the first battery cell 12 is in the off state.
