The axial direction of the first channel 110 in the aerosol generating device is defined as longitudinal, and the first oil storage shell 210 and the second oil storage shell 220 may be arranged laterally inside the device body 10.

[0067] Alternatively, as an alternative to the aforementioned split-type oil storage housing, an integrated oil storage housing can also be used.

In specific applications, the first channel 110 and the second channel 120 can also be integrated into or fixedly connected to both sides of the partition.

[0068] Specifically, the first cavity 201 and the second cavity 202 are adjacent and independently arranged.

The first air inlet 101 and the second air inlet 102 are located on the same side of the device body 10. The first air inlet 101 and the second air inlet 102 can be arranged apart, or the first air inlet 101 and the second air inlet 102 can be the same air inlet, that is, the first channel 110 and the second channel 120 can share a single air inlet. In this embodiment, the device body 10 is provided with two independent air inlets (the first air inlet 101 and the second air inlet 102). The first air inlet 101 and the second air inlet 102 can also be located on different sides of the device body 10. The air inlet positions of the first channel 110 and the second channel 120 are relatively isolated, which is more conducive to hygiene and safety in shared scenarios.

[0074] Specifically, the main body 10 of the device is provided with a first air outlet 103 and a second air outlet 104. The first air outlet 103 is connected to the first channel 110, and the second air outlet 104 is connected to the second channel 120. The first air outlet 103 and the second air outlet 104 can be set independently for the convenience of the user.

[0075] Specifically, the first air outlet 103 and the second air outlet 104 can be located on the same side of the device body 10, and the first air outlet 103 and the second air outlet 104 can be separated and do not affect each other; or, the first air outlet 103 and the second air outlet 104 can also be located on different sides of the device body 10, which is conducive to hygiene and safety in the sharing scenario.

[0076] Specifically, the main body 10 of the equipment has a first end and a second end; the first air inlet 101 and / or the second air inlet 102 are disposed at the first end of the main body 10 of the equipment, and the first air outlet 103 and / or the second air outlet 104 are disposed at the second end of the main body 10 of the equipment.

Alternatively, the second air inlet 102 is located at the first end of the device body 10, and the first air inlet 101 is located on the side of the device body 10 between the first end and the second end. That is, one of the first air inlet 101 and the second air inlet 102 can be located on the end face (first end) of the device body 10, and the other can be located on the first side of the device body 10.

[0078] In specific applications, the first air outlet 103 and the second air outlet 104 can be located at the second end of the device body 10. Of course, one of the first air outlet 103 and the second air outlet 104 can be located on the end face (second end) of the device body 10, and the other can be located on the second side of the device body 10, which can be opposite to the first side.

[0079] Specifically, the main body 10 of the device is provided with an airflow chamber 410, and the airflow driving component 300 is disposed in the airflow chamber 410.

The outlet end is connected to one end of the first channel 110, and the other end of the first channel 110 is connected to the first outlet 103. When the airflow driving component 300 is working, it can allow external gas to enter from the first air inlet 101 to form an airflow. The airflow enters the airflow chamber 410 through the intake end and flows to the outlet end. Then it enters the first channel 110 from the outlet end. When the first heating device 230 is working, the aerosol generated in the first channel 110 can be actively discharged from the first outlet 103 along with the airflow to form an aerosol. The aerosol enters the external environment, and the user can actively inhale the aerosol.

[0080] Specifically, a fixed bracket 400 is provided inside the main body 10 of the device, and an airflow chamber 410 is provided in the fixed bracket 400. The airflow driving component 300 is fixed to the fixed bracket 400 and located inside the airflow chamber 410. The fixed bracket 400 is close to the first end of the main body 10 of the device, and the aerosol atomizing component 200 is close to the second end of the main body 10 of the device. In this way, the first heating device 230 is closer to the first air outlet 103, and the second heating device 240 is closer to the second air outlet 104. The aerosol formed after the aerosol matrix is ​​atomized can be discharged from the main body 10 of the device with a shorter path, which is more conducive to ensuring the flavor of the aerosol and avoiding the aerosol from adhering to the channel or being too cold after passing through a narrow channel, resulting in flavor loss.

[0081] Specifically, the fixed bracket 400 is also provided with a battery mounting cavity 420, and a battery component 430 is disposed within the battery mounting cavity 420. The airflow cavity 410 is disposed adjacent to the battery mounting cavity 420. The direction from the first end to the second end of the device body 10 is defined as the length direction (i.e., the longitudinal direction). The airflow cavity 410 and the battery mounting cavity 420 can be disposed laterally adjacent, that is, adjacent along the width of the device body 10 (the direction perpendicular to the length direction). The airflow cavity 410 and the battery mounting cavity 420 are isolated. A circuit board 440 is disposed on one side of the fixed bracket 400.

[0099] Example 2:

[0100] In the aerosol generating device provided in Embodiment 1, the first channel 110 and the channel to be channeled are completely independent. In this embodiment, the main difference from the scheme in Embodiment 1 is that the first channel 110 and the channel to be channeled are not completely independent.

[0101] The aerosol generating device provided in this embodiment has an air inlet, a first air outlet 103, and a second air outlet 104 in its main body 10. The main body 10 also has a common channel. The first end of the common channel is connected to the air inlet. The first end of the first channel 110 and the first end of the second channel 120 are both connected to the second end of the common channel. The second end of the first channel 110 is connected to the first air outlet 103, and the second end of the second channel 120 is connected to the second air outlet 104.

[0102] Optionally, the aerosol atomizing component 200 includes a first heating element and a second heating element. The first heating element is provided in the first channel 110 and is used to heat the aerosol matrix and form an aerosol in the first channel 110. The second heating element is provided in the second channel 120 and is used to heat the aerosol matrix and form an aerosol in the second channel 120.

[0103] Alternatively, the aerosol atomizing component 200 includes a heating element, with a heating element disposed in a common channel. The aerosol atomizing component 200 has a common cavity, and the common channel can communicate with the common cavity. The heating element is used to heat the aerosol matrix and form an aerosol within the common channel. The aerosol can be switched to the first channel 110 or the second channel 120 as needed. Of course, in some scenarios, the aerosol can also be discharged from the first channel 110 or the second channel 120 simultaneously.

[0104] In practical applications, the second channel 120 and the first channel 110 are at least partially shared. For example, one end of the second channel 120 and the first channel 110 are air inlets, and the other end of the second channel 120 and the first channel 110 are air inlets. The air inlets of the second channel 120 and the first channel 110 can be shared, meaning the aerosol generating device can be equipped with a shared air inlet channel. As a shared channel, the second channel 120 and the first channel 110 are connected to the air inlet channel. For example, the second channel 120, the first channel 110, and the air inlet channel can be arranged in a Y-shape. The airflow passes through the shared air inlet channel and is then discharged from the second channel 120 or the first channel 110 depending on the usage scenario. Specifically, the second channel 120 and / or the first channel 110 can be equipped with a control valve, allowing the user to control the on / off state of the second channel 120 and / or the first channel 110 as needed to switch between different usage scenarios. In specific applications, the second channel 120 may be equipped with a one-way valve, which may be a solenoid valve connected to the circuit board 440. The one-way valve is used to make the airflow flow unidirectionally from the common channel to the second channel 120, so as to prevent the airflow in the second channel 120 from flowing back into the first channel 110 and thus contaminating the first channel 110.

[0105] Example 3:

[0106] The aerosol generating device in Example 1 can be an integrated device body 10. The main difference between this example and Example 1 is that a split device body 10 is used.

[0107] Specifically, the aerosol generating device provided in this embodiment has a main body 10 including a main functional module and a sub-functional module, and the sub-functional module is detachably connected to the main functional module.

[0108] The second channel 120 and the battery component 430 are located in the main functional module, while the first channel 110 and the airflow drive component 300 are located in the sub-functional module.

[0109] Optionally, the aerosol atomizing component 200 includes a first heating element and a second heating element. The first heating element is disposed in the first channel 110, and the second heating element is disposed in the second channel 120.

A conductive connector is disposed between the sub-functional module and the main functional module to electrically connect the airflow generating device and the second heating element of the sub-functional module to the battery component 430. The sub-functional module can be separated from the main functional module. When the sub-functional module is not needed, it can be removed from the main functional module. The main functional module is relatively small in size, making it easy to carry and use. When the sub-functional module is needed for active aerosol discharge, it can be connected to the main functional module. Users can purchase sub-functional modules as needed, meeting the needs of different users.

[0110] In practical applications, the main functional module is equipped with a control device 160, which can be connected to or mounted on the circuit board 440. The control device 160 can be a button, etc. The main functional module can be turned on and off using the control device 160. After the secondary functional module is connected to the main functional module, the main functional module can be turned off using the control device 160. The secondary functional module and the main functional module can be connected via conductive terminals to transmit electrical energy and control signals. Alternatively, in practical applications, a proximity switch can be installed between the secondary functional module and the main functional module. This proximity switch can be a pressure-sensitive switch. After the secondary functional module is connected to the main functional module, it acts on the proximity switch, triggering the switch to turn off the main functional module and / or start the secondary functional module. The turning on and off of the main functional module and / or the secondary functional module can also be achieved using the control device 160. In some applications, corresponding control components, such as buttons or knobs, can also be installed on the secondary functional module.

[0111] Optionally, the main functional module and the sub-functional module can be connected by a plug-in structure, a snap-fit ​​structure, a magnetic structure, or a locking structure, so that the sub-functional module and the main functional module can be easily disassembled and assembled.

[0112] Example 4:

[0113] The aerosol generating device in Embodiment 1 uses an axial fan, centrifugal fan, air pump, bladeless air outlet device, etc. as its airflow driving component 300. The main difference between this embodiment and Embodiment 1 is that an elastic firing diaphragm is used as the airflow driving component 300.

[0114] The aerosol generating device provided in this embodiment has an air inlet at one end of the first channel 110 and an air outlet at the other end. The airflow driving component 300 includes an elastic firing membrane, which is disposed at the air inlet of the first channel 110. By stretching the elastic firing membrane away from the air outlet, the elastic firing membrane deforms and stores energy. Then, the elastic firing membrane is elastically reset in the air outlet direction, so that the airflow is pushed out by the elastic firing membrane, thereby forming the effect of actively discharging aerosols.

[0115] Specifically, one end of the first channel 110 is the air inlet, and the other end of the first channel 110 is the air outlet. The airflow driving component 300 also includes a driving element, which is electrically connected to the circuit board. It is used to drive the elastic firing diaphragm to elastically deform in a direction away from the air outlet. The driving element can be a linear motor, a lead screw transmission mechanism, etc. In addition to manually deforming the elastic firing diaphragm, it can also be deformed electrically.
