Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of electronic atomization technology, and in particular to an atomizing device, a power supply device, and a vapor generation device. Background Technology

[0002] A vapor generator is an electronic device that can vaporize stored e-liquids, medicines, or other atomizing liquids into vapor through electric heating. A vapor generator typically includes an atomizer and a power supply unit. The atomizer generally includes a storage chamber for storing the atomizing liquid and an atomizing core for absorbing the atomizing liquid and vaporizing it into vapor. The power supply unit is used to supply power to the atomizing core.

[0003] In related technologies, atomizers are generally pre-filled with atomizing liquid when they leave the factory. However, since the storage chamber of the atomizer is generally a closed structure and has a limited volume (usually 2ML), the lifespan of the atomizer is limited. Once the atomizing liquid in the storage chamber is consumed by the atomizing coil, the entire atomizer can only be discarded and cannot be reused. Utility Model Content

[0008] When the valve moves to the first position relative to the first housing, the first liquid guiding part is isolated from the first storage cavity, so that the first storage cavity is isolated from the second storage cavity; when the valve moves to the second position relative to the first housing, the first liquid guiding part is connected to the first storage cavity, so that the first storage cavity is connected to the second storage cavity.

[0009] In some embodiments, the first sidewall is a circumferential sidewall of the first housing, the second sidewall is a circumferential sidewall of the second housing, and the first housing is further provided with a mounting cavity for mounting the valve. The valve is at least partially movably mounted in the mounting cavity. The first housing also has a third sidewall located differently from the first sidewall.

[0012] In some embodiments, the atomizing body further includes a power supply assembly, which includes a third housing, a battery, a control circuit board, and the driving component. The battery and the control circuit board are both installed within the third housing. The control circuit board is electrically connected to the battery and the atomizing core, respectively. One end of the third housing along its height direction is connected to the first housing, and the second housing is detachably connected. The third sidewall is the bottom wall of the first housing, and a through hole is provided on the portion of the third housing facing the third sidewall. The driving component includes a first push member, a push rod, a lever rotatably installed within the third housing, and a second elastic member for resetting the push rod. The first push member has a push portion and a rod portion connected as one unit. The push portion extends along the height direction of the third housing. The push rod is slidably connected to the outer wall of the third housing. One end of the rod facing away from the pusher abuts against one end of the lever. The push rod is slidably installed inside the third housing along the height direction of the third housing. One end of the push rod abuts against the end of the lever facing away from the rod, and the other end is set corresponding to the through hole. The through hole is connected to the through hole and is used for the push rod facing away from the lever to pass through. One end of the second elastic member is fixed relative to the third housing, and the other end is fixed relative to the push rod. When the pusher is subjected to an external force to drive the lever to rotate, the end of the push rod facing away from the lever abuts against the slide plate after passing through the through hole and extending into the through hole, thereby driving the slide plate to slide from the first position to the second position.

[0025] Secondly, this application also provides an atomizing device for detachable combination with a liquid reservoir in a vapor generating device according to any of the above embodiments, wherein the atomizing device is an atomizer in a vapor generating device according to any of the above embodiments.

[0026] Thirdly, this application also provides a power supply device for detachable combination with a combined atomizer, the combined atomizer including the aforementioned atomizing device and the liquid reservoir in the vapor generating device of any of the above embodiments, and the power supply device being the power supply component in the vapor generating device of any of the above embodiments.

[0027] Compared with the prior art, this application has at least the following beneficial effects:

[0028] In the technical solution of this application, on the one hand, a first liquid guiding part for the atomizing liquid to pass through and a valve for opening and closing the first liquid guiding part are provided in the atomizer; on the other hand, a reservoir for separately storing the atomizing liquid is added. The second side wall of the reservoir is provided with a second liquid guiding part for the atomizing liquid in the reservoir to pass through. The second side wall of the reservoir is detachably connected to the first side wall of the atomizer and the second liquid guiding part is in contact with the first liquid guiding part. With this configuration, once the atomizing fluid in the first storage chamber of the atomizer is depleted by the atomizing core, the valve of the atomizer can be opened (i.e., the valve is in the second position). This connects the first storage chamber of the atomizer to the second storage chamber of the reservoir via the first and second liquid guiding sections. The atomizing fluid in the second storage chamber of the reservoir can then be guided into the first storage chamber of the atomizer through the second and first liquid guiding sections for replenishment. After replenishment, the valve is closed (i.e., the valve is in the first position), isolating the first storage chamber of the atomizer from the second storage chamber of the reservoir. This prevents the atomizing fluid in the first storage chamber from flowing back into the second storage chamber. In other words, the reservoir can replenish the atomizer's atomizing fluid after it has been depleted by the atomizing core, thus enabling the atomizer to be reused repeatedly and improving the endurance of the vapor generator.

[0067] Please refer to Figure 1-8 , Figure 15-19 as well as Figure 25-26 One embodiment of this application provides a vapor generating device, which includes an atomizing body and a liquid reservoir 2. The atomizing body includes an atomizer 1, wherein:

[0068] The atomizer 1 includes a first housing 11, an atomizing core 12, and a valve 16. The valve 16 is at least partially movably installed within the first housing 11 and is operable to move relative to the first housing 11 between a first position and a second position. The first housing 11 has a first sidewall 111, which is provided with a first liquid guiding portion 110 through which atomized liquid can pass, and the first liquid guiding portion 110 is provided corresponding to the valve 16. The first housing 11 has an airflow channel 102 and a first storage chamber 101 for storing atomized liquid. The atomizing core 12 is installed within the first housing 11 and communicates with the first storage chamber 101 (specifically, the wall of the first storage chamber 101 is provided with a liquid outlet 10 corresponding to the atomizing core 12). 11. The atomizing core 12 is connected to the first storage chamber 101 through the liquid outlet 1011, so that the atomizing core 12 can draw atomizing liquid from the first storage chamber 101 for heating and atomization to produce vapor that can be inhaled by the user; moreover, the atomizing core 12 is located on the airflow path of the airflow channel 102 so that the vapor produced by the atomizing core 12 can be carried away by the suction airflow formed in the airflow channel 102 and discharged to the outside for the user to inhale; in addition, in order to facilitate the user to inhale, the top of the first housing 11 is connected to a mouthpiece 13 (the mouthpiece 13 can be made of plastic) that communicates with the airflow channel 102. When the user bites the mouthpiece 13 to inhale, a suction airflow can be formed in the airflow channel 102.

[0069] The liquid reservoir 2 includes a second housing 21, and a second storage chamber 201 for storing atomized liquid is provided inside the second housing 21. The second housing 21 has a second side wall 211, and the second side wall 211 is provided with a second liquid guiding part 210 through which the atomized liquid can pass. The second liquid guiding part 210 is connected to the second storage chamber 201. The second side wall 211 is detachably connected to the first side wall 111, and the second liquid guiding part 210 is in contact with the first liquid guiding part 110.

[0070] like Figure 3 As shown, when the valve 16 moves to the first position relative to the first housing 11, the first liquid guiding part 110 is isolated from the first storage chamber 101. At this time, it is equivalent to the first liquid guiding part 110 being closed by the valve 16, thereby isolating the first storage chamber 101 of the atomizer 1 from the second storage chamber 201 of the liquid reservoir 2, so as to prevent the atomized liquid in the first storage chamber 101 from flowing back into the second storage chamber 201.

[0071] like Figure 5 As shown, when the valve 16 moves to the second position relative to the first housing 11, the first liquid guiding part 110 is connected to the first storage chamber 101. At this time, it is equivalent to the first liquid guiding part 110 being opened by the valve 16, so that the first storage chamber 101 of the atomizer 1 can be connected to the second storage chamber 201 of the liquid reservoir 2 through the first liquid guiding part 110 and the second liquid guiding part 210, so as to introduce the atomized liquid in the second storage chamber 201 into the first storage chamber 101 for replenishment.

[0072] In this embodiment, it should be noted that, in specific implementation, the first sidewall 111 can be the top wall of the first housing 11, the bottom wall of the first housing 11, or a circumferential sidewall located between the top wall and the bottom wall of the first housing 11 (such as the front sidewall, rear sidewall, left sidewall, or right sidewall of the first housing 11). It can be determined according to actual usage needs, and this embodiment does not impose specific limitations on it. Similarly, the second sidewall 211 can be the top wall of the second housing 21, the bottom wall of the second housing 21, or a circumferential sidewall of the second housing 21. It can be understood here that when the first sidewall 111 is the bottom wall of the first housing 11, the second sidewall 211 is the top wall of the second housing 21; similarly, when the first sidewall 111 is the top wall of the first housing 11, the second sidewall 211 is the bottom wall of the second housing 21; similarly, when the first sidewall 111 is a circumferential sidewall of the first housing 11, the second sidewall 211 is a circumferential sidewall of the second housing 21, such as... Figure 9 and Figure 13As shown, the first sidewall 111 is the right sidewall of the first housing 11, and the second sidewall 211 is the left sidewall of the second housing 21. It should be noted that the first sidewall 111 and the second sidewall 211 can be planar, curved, formed by connecting planar and curved surfaces, or formed by connecting different planar surfaces, depending on actual usage requirements. This embodiment does not impose specific limitations on the specific structural form of the first sidewall 111 and the second sidewall 211.

[0073] In this embodiment, it should also be noted that, in specific implementation, the detachable connection between the first sidewall 111 and the second sidewall 211 can be a snap-fit ​​connection, a magnetic connection, or a threaded connection, as long as it meets the usage requirements. This embodiment does not impose specific limitations in this regard. For example, as... Figure 9 , Figure 11 , Figure 13-14 and Figure 16 As shown, the detachable connection between the first sidewall 111 and the second sidewall 211 is a snap-fit ​​connection. Specifically, the second sidewall 211 is provided with at least one snap-fit ​​member 212, and the first housing 11 has a frame portion 112 surrounding the first sidewall 111. The inner wall of the frame portion 112 is provided with at least one slot 1120, and each snap-fit ​​member 212 is engaged with each slot 1120 in a one-to-one correspondence.

[0074] In this embodiment, it should also be noted that, in specific implementation, the user can operate the valve 16 by pressing, pushing, or rotating, as long as it meets the usage requirements. This embodiment does not impose specific limitations in this regard. It is understood that when the user operates the valve 16 by pressing or pushing, the valve 16 is at least partially slidably installed within the first housing 11; when the user operates the valve 16 by rotating, the valve 16 is at least partially rotatably installed within the first housing 11. It should be further noted that, in specific implementation, the valve 16 can be completely located within the first housing 11 without being exposed, or it can be partially located within the first housing 11 and partially exposed, as long as the valve 16 can be operablely moved between the first and second positions by the user. This embodiment does not impose specific limitations in this regard.

[0075] In this embodiment, it should be further noted that, in specific implementation, the structure of the first liquid guiding part 110 can be a hole-like structure, and the structure of the second liquid guiding part 210 can be a plug-like structure; or, the structure of the first liquid guiding part 110 can be a plug-like structure, and the structure of the second liquid guiding part 210 can be a hole-like structure; or, the structure of both the first liquid guiding part 110 and the second liquid guiding part 210 can be a hole-like structure; or, the structure of both the first liquid guiding part 110 and the second liquid guiding part 210 can be a plug-like structure. As long as the first liquid guiding part 110 and the second liquid guiding part 210 are connected and the valve 16 is in the second position, the first storage cavity 101 and the second storage cavity 201 can be interconnected. This embodiment does not impose specific restrictions on the specific structural forms of the first liquid guiding part 110 and the second liquid guiding part 210. In some specific application scenarios, to make the connection between the first liquid guiding part 110 and the second liquid guiding part 210 more convenient and reliable, and considering that the liquid reservoir 2 usually needs to be equipped with a puncture-resistant seal 22 (such as a silicone film or aluminum foil) at the second liquid guiding part 210 during the factory to prevent leakage of the atomized liquid pre-filled in the second storage cavity 201 from the second liquid guiding part 210 when the liquid reservoir 2 is stored and transported alone, therefore, optionally, the structure of the first liquid guiding part 110 is a plug structure, and the structure of the second liquid guiding part 210 is a hole structure, specifically, such as Figure 9-11 , Figure 13-14 and Figure 16 As shown, the first liquid guiding part 110 includes a hollow liquid guiding protrusion 1101. A pierceable sealing body 22 is provided at the liquid guiding hole 2101. After the liquid guiding protrusion 1101 is inserted into the liquid guiding hole 2101 and pierces the sealing body 22, it is sealed and connected to the second storage cavity 201. For ease of description, the following related technical content will be described using the example of the first liquid guiding part 110 having a plug structure and the second liquid guiding part 210 having a hole structure. In order to achieve a sealed connection between the liquid guiding protrusion 1101 and the second storage cavity 201 and prevent the atomized liquid in the second storage cavity 201 from leaking to the outside through the fitting gap between the liquid guiding hole 2101 and the liquid guiding protrusion 1101 after the atomizer 1 and the liquid reservoir 2 are combined into one unit, a sealing ring 14 can be provided between the liquid guiding hole 2101 and the liquid guiding protrusion 1101. For example, the outer wall of the liquid guiding protrusion 1101 is fitted with a sealing ring 14 that contacts the second housing 21.

[0076] In this embodiment, based on the above structural design, after the atomizing liquid in the first storage chamber 101 of the atomizer 1 is consumed by the atomizing core 12, the valve 16 of the atomizer 1 can be opened (i.e., the valve 16 is placed in the second position), so that the first storage chamber 101 of the atomizer 1 is connected to the second storage chamber 201 of the liquid reservoir 2. Then, the atomizing liquid in the second storage chamber 201 of the liquid reservoir 2 can be introduced into the first storage chamber 101 of the atomizer 1 through the first liquid guiding part 110 for replenishment. After replenishment, the valve 16 is closed (i.e., the valve 16 is placed in the second position). With valve 16 in the first position, the first storage chamber 101 of the atomizer 1 is isolated from the second storage chamber 201 of the reservoir 2, preventing the atomized liquid in the first storage chamber 101 from flowing back into the second storage chamber 201. This means the reservoir 2 can replenish the atomizer 1 with atomized liquid after the atomizing core 12 has consumed it. This not only allows the atomizer 1 to be reused but also improves the endurance of the vapor generator. In other words, the vapor generator provided in this embodiment has the advantage of a long continuous operating time. It should be noted that since the connection between the first housing 11 and the second housing 21 is detachable, after the atomized liquid in both the atomizer 1 and the reservoir 2 has been used up, simply detach the reservoir 2 from the atomizer 1 and then combine a new reservoir 2 pre-filled with atomized liquid with the original atomizer 1. This allows for continued replenishment of atomized liquid to the original atomizer 1.

[0077] Further, please refer to Figure 6 In some optional embodiments of this application, the volume of the second storage chamber 201 can be set to 2.5 to 5.5 times the volume of the first storage chamber 101. For example, assuming the volume of the first storage chamber 101 of the atomizer 1 is 2 ml (that is, it can store 2 ml of atomizing liquid), then the volume of the second storage chamber 201 of the reservoir 2 can be 5 ml to 11 ml, which is equivalent to indirectly increasing the volume of the atomizer 1 by 2.5 to 5.5 times. This setting not only allows the reservoir 2 to repeatedly replenish the atomizer 1 with atomizing liquid (at least 3 times), but also avoids the reservoir 2's volume being set too large, which would result in an excessively large overall size of the atomizing device and affect the user's portability.

[0078] Further, please refer to Figure 3-4 , Figure 9-14 and Figure 17-20In some optional embodiments of this application, the first sidewall 111 is the circumferential sidewall of the first housing 11, and the second sidewall 211 is the circumferential sidewall of the second housing 21. For example, the first sidewall 111 is the right sidewall of the first housing 11, and the second sidewall 211 is the left sidewall of the second housing 21. The first housing 11 is also provided with a mounting cavity 103 for mounting the valve 16. The valve 16 is at least partially movably mounted in the mounting cavity 103. The first housing 11 also has a third sidewall 116 with a position different from the first sidewall 111. The third sidewall 116 is provided with a through hole 1160. The atomizing body also includes a driving component 32 provided with a corresponding through hole 1160. The through hole 1160 is connected to the mounting cavity 103 and is used for at least part of the driving component 32 to extend into. The driving component 32 is configured to operably cause the valve 16 to move between a first position and a second position.

[0079] In this embodiment, the drive component 32 is configured to facilitate user operation of the valve 16 between the first and second positions. Specifically, when the atomizing liquid in the first storage chamber 101 of the atomizer 1 is depleted, the entire vapor generation device can be inverted (with the nozzle 13 facing downwards). Then, the drive component 32 is operated in the first manner, causing it to move the valve 16 from the first position to the second position. At this time, under the influence of gravity, the atomizing liquid in the second storage chamber can be introduced into the first storage chamber through the first liquid guide 110 for replenishment. After replenishment, the drive component 32 is operated in the second manner, causing the valve 16 to move from the second position back to the initial first position. At this time, the valve 16 isolates the first storage chamber 101 from the second storage chamber 201 to prevent the atomizing liquid in the first storage chamber 101 from flowing back into the second storage chamber 201.

[0080] Furthermore, in some optional embodiments of this application, the structure of valve 16 can be as follows:

[0081] Please refer to Figure 3-6 The first housing 11 has a partition portion 117 located between the mounting cavity 103 and the first storage cavity 101. The partition portion 117 is provided with a liquid passage hole 1170 communicating with the first storage cavity 101. The valve 16 includes a slide plate 161 slidably mounted in the mounting cavity 103, and the slide plate 161 is provided with a connecting hole 1610; wherein, as Figure 3 As shown, when the slide plate 161 is not driven by the drive component 32 and is in the first position, the slide plate 161 simultaneously covers the liquid outlet end of the liquid passage 1170 and the liquid inlet end of the first liquid guiding part 110, thereby isolating the first liquid guiding part 110 from the first storage cavity 101, and further isolating the first storage cavity 101 from the second storage cavity 201; as Figure 5As shown, when the slide plate 161 is driven by the drive component 32 to slide to the second position, the connecting hole 1610 of the slide plate 161 is connected to the liquid outlet end of the liquid passage 1170 and the liquid inlet end of the first liquid guiding part 110, thereby connecting the first liquid guiding part 110 to the first storage cavity 101, so as to introduce the atomized liquid in the second storage cavity 201 into the first storage cavity 101 for replenishment. In this embodiment, the valve 16 provided in this embodiment has the advantage of simple structure.

[0082] Further, please refer to Figure 3-4 , Figure 8 as well as Figures 19-20 In some optional embodiments of this application, the atomizer 1 further includes a first elastic member 17 located in the mounting cavity 103. One end of the first elastic member 17 abuts against the cavity wall of the mounting cavity 103 and the other end abuts against the sliding plate 161. The first elastic member 17 is configured to drive the sliding plate 161 back to the first position when the driving member 32 removes the force applied to the sliding plate 161.

[0083] In this embodiment, the first elastic element 17 is provided so that when the atomizing liquid in the first storage cavity 101 is replenished and the force applied to the slide plate 161 by the driving component 32 is removed, the slide plate 161 can automatically return to the first position without requiring the user to manually reset the slide plate 161, thereby improving the user experience. In specific implementations, the elastic element can be a spring, sheet metal, rubber band, or other component with good elastic properties, as long as it meets the usage requirements; this embodiment does not impose specific limitations on this.

[0084] Furthermore, in some optional embodiments of this application, to avoid the atomizing liquid from seeping into the mounting cavity 103 through the mounting gap between the sliding plate 161 and the mounting cavity 103 during the process of replenishing the atomizing liquid in the second storage cavity 201 into the first storage cavity 101, thus causing waste of the atomizing liquid, please refer to... Figure 3 and Figure 5 A first sealing element 191 is fixed on the side of the slide plate 161 facing the first liquid guiding part 110, which surrounds the liquid outlet end of the connecting hole 1610. A second sealing element 192 is fixed on the side of the slide plate 161 facing the liquid passage hole 1170, which surrounds the liquid inlet end of the connecting hole 1610. Both the first sealing element 191 and the second sealing element 192 are in contact with the cavity wall of the mounting cavity 103.

[0085] In this embodiment, it should be noted that, in specific implementation, the material of the first sealing member 191 can be a sealing material such as silicone, rubber, or silicone rubber, and the first sealing member 191 can be fixed to the side of the slide plate 161 facing the first liquid guiding part 110 by embedding; similarly, the material of the second sealing member 192 can also be a sealing material such as silicone, rubber, or silicone rubber, and the second sealing member 192 can also be fixed to the side of the slide plate 161 facing the liquid passage hole 1170 by embedding. Furthermore, to better prevent the atomizing liquid from seeping into the mounting cavity 103 through the mounting gap between the slide plate 161 and the mounting cavity 103, thus avoiding waste of the atomizing liquid and corrosion of the first elastic element 17 by the atomizing liquid, preferably, the first seal 191 and the second seal 192 both extend along the sliding direction of the slide plate 161 (i.e., the height direction of the slide plate 161), so that regardless of whether the slide plate 161 is in the first position or the second position, the inner walls on the upper and lower sides of the liquid outlet end of the liquid passage hole 1170 in the mounting cavity 103 are in contact with the first seal 191, and the inner walls on the upper and lower sides of the liquid inlet end of the second liquid guiding part 210 in the mounting cavity 103 are in contact with the second seal 192.

[0086] Furthermore, in some optional embodiments of this application, the driving component 32 can be disposed in the first housing 11 of the atomizer 1 (in this case, the driving component 32 is part of the atomizer 1), and the structure of the driving component 32 can be a push-type structure. Specifically, please refer to... Figure 17-20 The third sidewall 116 is the top wall or circumferential sidewall of the first housing 11. The driving component 32 includes a second pusher 18 exposed on the first housing 11. The second pusher 18 is slidably installed at the through hole 1160 and connected to the slide plate 161.

[0087] In this embodiment, it should be noted that the specific structural form of the second push member 18 can be a manually pressed button or a manually sliding push button, depending on the specific setting of the slide plate 161. For example, when the slide plate 161 is set to slide up and down along the height direction of the first housing 11, the second push member 18 can be a push button exposed on the front or rear side wall of the first housing 11 (at this time, the third side wall 116 of the first housing 11 is the front or rear side wall of the first housing 11, and the first elastic member 17 can be clamped between the upper surface of the slide plate 161 and the top wall of the mounting cavity 103, and when the slide plate 161 is in the first position, the connecting hole 1610 is located below the first liquid guiding part 110), or it can be a button exposed on the top wall of the first housing 11 (at this time, the first elastic member 17 can be clamped on the slide plate). The lower surface of the slide plate 161 is between the bottom wall of the mounting cavity 103, and when the slide plate 161 is in the first position, the connecting hole 1610 is located above the first liquid guiding part 110; for example, when the slide plate 161 is configured to slide back and forth along the width direction of the first housing 11, the second push member 18 can be a button exposed on the front side wall (or rear side wall) of the first housing 11. At this time, the first elastic member 17 is clamped between the rear surface of the slide plate 161 and the rear inner wall of the mounting cavity 103, and when the slide plate 161 is in the first position, the connecting hole 1610 is located in front of the first liquid guiding part 110 (or the first elastic member 17 is clamped between the front surface of the slide plate 161 and the front inner wall of the mounting cavity 103, and when the slide plate 161 is in the first position, the connecting hole 1610 is located behind the first liquid guiding part 110).

[0088] In this embodiment, for ease of explanation of the relevant structural principles, the second pusher 18 is described as an exposed push key located on the front sidewall of the first housing 11. Specifically, please refer to the reference... Figure 17-20After the atomizing liquid in the first storage chamber 101 of the atomizer 1 is consumed, the entire vapor generation device can be inverted. Then, the second pusher 18 can be pushed with a finger along the direction close to the mouthpiece 13 (equivalent to the first operation mentioned in the previous embodiment), so that the slide plate 161 slides from the first position to the second position. At this time, the connecting hole 1610 of the slide plate 161 is connected to the liquid passage hole 1170 and the second liquid guide part 210 respectively, and the first elastic member 17 is in a compressed state. Then, under the action of gravity, the second storage chamber 101 is depleted. The atomizing liquid in the storage chamber can be sequentially introduced into the first storage chamber through the first liquid guiding part 110, the connecting hole 1610, and the liquid passage hole 1170 for replenishment. After replenishment, when the finger is released, under the elastic restoring force of the first elastic member 17, the slide plate 161 automatically returns to the first position and drives the second push member 18 to return to the initial position. At this time, the first storage chamber 101 and the second storage chamber 201 are isolated by the slide plate 161 to prevent the atomizing liquid in the first storage chamber 101 from flowing back into the second storage chamber 201. It should be noted that in some application scenarios, if the first elastic member 17 is removed, after replenishing the atomizing liquid in the second storage chamber 201 into the first storage chamber 101, the second push member 18 needs to be pushed back to the initial position with a finger to return the slide plate 161 to the first position. That is, if the first elastic member 17 is removed, the user needs to perform a separate reset operation on the slide plate 161.

[0089] Furthermore, in some alternative embodiments of this application, the driving component 32 can be disposed in the power assembly 3 of the atomizing body (in this case, the driving component 32 is part of the power assembly 3), and the structure of the driving component 32 can be a push-type structure, as follows:

[0090] Please refer to Figure 1-6The atomizing body also includes a power supply assembly 3, which includes a third housing 31, a battery 33, a control circuit board 34, and a drive component 32. The battery 33 and the control circuit board 34 are both installed inside the third housing 31. The control circuit board 34 is electrically connected to the battery 33 and the atomizing core 12, respectively. One end of the third housing 31 along its height direction (i.e., the upper end of the third housing 31) is connected to the first housing 11 and detachably connected to the second housing 21. The third side wall 116 is the bottom wall of the first housing 11, and the part of the third housing 31 facing the third side wall 116 is provided with a through hole 3103. The drive component 32 includes a first push member 321, a push rod 324, and a second elastic member 32 for resetting the push rod 324. 5. A lever 322 rotatably mounted within the third housing 31 (exemplarily, a rotating shaft 323 is fixed within the third housing 31, and the lever 322 is rotatably sleeved on the rotating shaft 323). The first push member 321 has a push part 3211 and a rod part 3212 connected together. The push part 3211 is slidably connected to the outer side wall of the third housing 31 along the height direction of the third housing 31. One end of the rod part 3212 away from the push part 3211 abuts against one end of the lever 322. The push rod 324 is slidably mounted within the third housing 31 along the height direction of the third housing 31 (exemplarily, a longitudinally arranged mounting sleeve 326 is provided within the third housing 31, and the push rod 324 is slidably mounted within the third housing 31). (Integrated within the mounting sleeve 326), one end of the push rod 324 abuts against the end of the lever 322 away from the rod portion 3212 (exemplarily, the side wall of the mounting sleeve 326 has an opening 3260 facing the lever 322 and extending longitudinally, and the end of the lever 322 away from the rod portion 3212 passes through the opening 3260 and abuts against the lower end of the push rod 324), and the other end of the push rod 324 is set corresponding to the through hole 3103 (in specific implementation, when the push rod 324 is in the initial position, the upper end of the push rod 324 can extend into the through hole 3103, or it can be set aligned with the lower end of the through hole 3103), the through hole 3103 is correspondingly connected to the through hole portion 1160 and is used to allow the push rod 324 to move away from the lever 3212. One end of 22 passes through, one end of the second elastic member 325 is fixed relative to the third housing 31, and the other end of the second elastic member 325 is fixed relative to the push rod 324 (exemplarily, the push rod 324 is a stepped shaft structure, one end of the second elastic member 325 abuts against the upper inner wall of the mounting sleeve 326, and the other end of the second elastic member 325 abuts against one of the stepped surfaces of the push rod 324 that are opposite to the lever 322); wherein, when the push part 3211 is subjected to an external force to drive the lever 322 to rotate, the end of the push rod 324 that is away from the lever 322 abuts against the slide plate 161 after passing through the through hole 3103 and extending into the through hole 1160, so as to drive the slide plate 161 to slide from the first position to the second position.

[0091] In this embodiment, based on the above structural design, after the atomizing liquid in the first storage chamber 101 of the atomizer 1 is consumed by the atomizing core 12, the entire vapor generation device can be inverted, and then the pusher part 3211 of the first pusher 321 can be pushed with a finger in the direction away from the mouthpiece 13 (equivalent to the first operation mentioned in the previous embodiment). During the process of pushing the pusher part 3211, the rod part 3212 of the first pusher 321 drives the lever 322 in a clockwise direction (e.g., Figure 6 As shown, the lever 322 rotates, and simultaneously, the lever 322 pries the push rod 324 to slide along the direction close to the slide plate 161. During the sliding of the push rod 324 along the direction close to the slide plate 161, the end of the push rod 324 away from the lever 322 first passes through the through hole 3103 and then extends into the through hole 1160 of the first housing 11, and then abuts against the slide plate 161, thereby pushing the slide plate 161 to slide along the direction away from the through hole 1160 until the slide plate 161 slides to the second position. When the slide plate 161 slides to the second position, the connecting hole 1610 of the slide plate 161 is connected to the liquid passage hole 1170 and the first liquid guiding part 110 respectively, and the first elastic member 17 is in a compressed state, and the push part 3211 is in a state where it can no longer slide along the direction away from the suction nozzle 13, and then under the influence of gravity... Under the action of the first elastic element 17, the atomized liquid in the second storage can be introduced into the first storage through the first liquid guiding part 110, the connecting hole 1610, and the liquid passage hole 1170 to replenish it. After replenishment, the finger is released (equivalent to the second operation mentioned in the previous embodiment) to remove the force applied to the slide plate 161 by the push rod 324. During this process, under the action of the elastic restoring force of the second elastic element 325, the push rod 324 is reset to the initial position and drives the lever 322 and the push part 3211 to be reset to the initial position simultaneously. At the same time, under the action of the elastic restoring force of the first elastic element 17, the slide plate 161 is automatically reset to the first position. At this time, the first storage cavity 101 and the second storage cavity 201 are isolated by the slide plate 161 to prevent the atomized liquid in the first storage cavity 101 from flowing back into the second storage cavity 201.

[0092] In this embodiment, it should be noted that, in specific implementation, the connection between the first housing 11 and the third housing 31 can be a detachable connection (such as a magnetic connection, threaded connection, snap-fit ​​connection, plug-in connection, etc.) or a non-detachable fixed connection (such as an integral connection), which can be determined according to actual usage needs. This embodiment does not impose specific limitations on this. As for the detachable connection between the second housing 21 and the third housing 31, it can specifically be a magnetic connection, snap-fit ​​connection, or plug-in connection. This embodiment also does not impose specific limitations on this.

[0093] Furthermore, in some optional embodiments of this application, the driving component 32 can be disposed in the power supply assembly 3 of the atomizing body (in this case, the driving component 32 is part of the power supply assembly 3), and the structure of the driving component 32 can be an electric structure, as follows:

[0094] Please refer to Figure 8-16 The atomizing body also includes a power supply assembly 3, which includes a third housing 31, a battery 33, a control circuit board 34, a control switch 35, and a drive component 32. One end of the third housing 31 along its height direction is connected to the first housing 11 and detachably connected to the second housing 21. The third side wall 116 is the bottom wall of the first housing 11. A through hole 3103 is provided on the part of the third housing 31 facing the third side wall 116. The battery 33 and the control circuit board 34 are both installed inside the third housing 31. The control circuit board 34 is electrically connected to the battery 33, the control switch 35, and the atomizing core 12. The control switch 35 is at least partially exposed outside the third housing 31. The moving part 32 includes a linear motor 327 and a push rod 324. The linear motor 327 is installed in the third housing 31 and electrically connected to the control circuit board 34. The push rod 324 is slidably installed in the third housing 31 along the height direction of the third housing 31 (exemplarily, a longitudinally arranged mounting sleeve 326 is provided in the third housing 31, and the push rod 324 is at least partially slidably fitted in the mounting sleeve 326). One end of the push rod 324 is fixedly connected to the output shaft of the linear motor 327, and the other end is provided corresponding to the through hole 3103. The through hole 3103 is correspondingly connected to the through hole 1160 and is used for the push rod 324 to pass through one end of the linear motor 327.

[0095] In this embodiment, it should be noted that the specific structural form of the control switch 35 can be a push-button switch, a slide switch, a touch switch, etc., which can be determined according to actual usage needs. This embodiment does not impose specific limitations on this. For ease of description, this embodiment uses a slide switch as an example to illustrate the structure of the control switch 35. Specifically, after the atomizing liquid in the first storage chamber 101 of the atomizer 1 is consumed by the atomizing core 12, the entire vapor generation device can be inverted first, and then a finger can be used along the first direction (e.g., Figure 8The downward direction of the control switch 35 (equivalent to the first operation mentioned in the previous embodiment) causes the control circuit board 34 to control the output shaft of the linear motor 327 to extend in the direction close to the push rod 324, thereby pushing the push rod 324 to slide in the direction close to the slide plate 161. During the sliding process of the push rod 324 in the direction close to the slide plate 161, the end of the push rod 324 away from the linear motor 327 first passes through the through hole 3103 and then extends into the through hole 1160 of the first housing 11, and then abuts against the slide plate 161, thereby pushing the slide plate 161 to slide in the direction away from the through hole 1160 until the slide plate 161 slides to the second position. When the slide plate 161 slides to the second position, the connecting hole 1610 of the slide plate 161 is connected to the liquid passage hole 1170 and the first liquid guiding part 110 respectively, and the linear motor 327 is in a stopped state. Then, under the action of gravity, the mist in the second storage The atomized liquid can be sequentially introduced into the first storage chamber for replenishment through the second liquid guiding part 210, the connecting hole 1610, and the liquid passage hole 1170. After replenishment, the control switch 35 is slid along the second direction (which is opposite to the first direction mentioned above) with a finger (equivalent to the second operation mentioned in the previous embodiment) to remove the force applied to the slide plate 161 by the push rod 324. During this process, the control circuit board 34 controls the output shaft of the linear motor 327 to retract along the direction away from the push rod 324, thereby pulling the push rod 324 to slide along the direction away from the first housing 11 until the push rod 324 returns to the initial position. At the same time, under the action of the elastic restoring force of the first elastic member 17, the slide plate 161 automatically returns to the first position. At this time, the first storage chamber 101 and the second storage chamber 201 are isolated by the slide plate 161 to prevent the atomized liquid in the first storage chamber 101 from flowing back into the second storage chamber 201.

[0096] In this embodiment, compared to such Figure 1-6 Regarding the technical solution of the drive component 32 in the embodiment shown, which is a push-type structure, this embodiment designs the drive component 32 as an electric structure. The advantage is that, in the process of replenishing the atomized liquid in the second storage cavity 201 to the first storage cavity 101, the user's finger does not need to maintain the force of pushing the push part 3211 for a long time, which helps to save the user's strength and improve the user experience.

[0097] Further, please refer to Figure 3-5In some optional embodiments of this application, a guide post 1611 is protruding from the side surface of the slide plate 161 facing the through hole 1160. The guide post 1611 is fitted into the through hole 1160 with a clearance fit. The first elastic member 17 is disposed on the side of the slide plate 161 facing away from the guide post 1611. With this configuration, during the movement of the push rod 324 in the direction close to the slide plate 161, when the end of the push rod 324 near the first housing 11 extends into the through hole 1160 of the first housing 11 and abuts against the guide post 1611 of the slide plate 161, the push rod 324 can push the guide post 1611 to make the entire slide plate 161 slide in the direction away from the through hole 1160. The guide post 1611 can play a guiding role, so that the slide plate 161 can slide more smoothly.

[0098] Furthermore, in some application scenarios, when the first elastic element 17 is a spring, in order to enable the first elastic element 17 to elastically extend and retract more smoothly, and to facilitate the installation of the first elastic element 17 into the mounting cavity 103 during the manufacturing process of the atomizer 1, please refer to...

[0099] Furthermore, in some optional embodiments of this application, the connection between the first housing 11 and the third housing 31, and the connection between the second housing 21 and the third housing 31, can both be detachable snap-fit ​​connections, specifically:

[0100] Please refer to the reference. Figure 3 , Figure 11 , Figure 14 , Figure 16 as well as Figure 25-26The third housing 31 has a receiving cavity 310 at one end, in which at least a portion of the first housing 11 and at least a portion of the second housing 21 are received. A first locking hole 3101 is provided on the cavity wall of the receiving cavity 310 facing away from the first sidewall 111, and a second locking hole 3102 is provided on the cavity wall of the receiving cavity 310 facing away from the second sidewall 211. The outer wall of the first housing 11 facing away from the first sidewall 111 has a first groove 114 and a first elastic buckle 113 made of plastic. One end of the first elastic buckle 113 is connected to… The outer wall of the first housing 11 is integrally connected, and the other end extends along the direction close to the bottom wall of the receiving cavity 310 and forms a first latching part 1131 facing away from the first groove 114. The first latching part 1131 is engaged with the first latching hole 3101 and can form a sliding contact with the hole wall of the first latching hole 3101 (for example, the top wall surface of the first latching hole 3101 is a first inclined surface that forms an obtuse angle with the cavity wall of the receiving cavity 310 facing away from the first side wall 111). Correspondingly, the first latching part 1131 has a face facing the first groove 114. The second inclined surface is provided with an inclined surface. There is a gap between the surface of the first elastic buckle 113 facing away from the first card hole 3101 and the groove wall surface of the first groove 114. The outer wall of the second housing 21 facing away from the second side wall 211 is provided with a second groove 214 and a second elastic buckle 213 made of plastic. One end of the second elastic buckle 213 is connected to the outer wall of the second housing 21 as a whole, and the other end extends along the direction close to the bottom wall of the receiving cavity 310 and forms a second card facing away from the second groove 214. The second latching part 2131 is engaged with the second latching hole 3102 and can form a sliding contact with the hole wall of the second latching hole 3102 (exemplarily, the top wall surface of the second latching hole 3102 is a third inclined surface that is set at an obtuse angle to the cavity wall of the receiving cavity 310 facing away from the second side wall 211, and correspondingly, the second latching part 2131 has a fourth inclined surface that faces the third inclined surface). There is a gap between the side surface of the second elastic latch 213 facing away from the second latching hole 3102 and the groove wall surface of the second groove 214.

[0101] In this embodiment, based on the above structural design, when combining the atomizer 1, the liquid reservoir 2, and the power supply assembly 3 into a complete vapor generation device, the first sidewall 111 of the atomizer 1 and the second sidewall 211 of the liquid reservoir 2 can be joined to form a combined atomizer 1. Then, the through hole 1160 of the first housing 11 corresponds to the through hole 3103 located on the bottom wall of the receiving cavity 310. Then, the bottom of the entire combined atomizer 1 is inserted into the receiving cavity 310 of the third housing 31. During this process, the lower ends of the first elastic buckle 113 and the second elastic buckle 213 will be squeezed by the cavity wall of the receiving cavity 310. When deformation occurs until the first latching part 1131 is aligned with the first latching hole 3101 and the second latching part 2131 is aligned with the second latching hole 3102, the lower end of the first elastic latch 113 returns to its original state and the first latching part 1131 is fastened to the first latching hole 3101, and the lower end of the second elastic latch 213 returns to its original state and the second latching part 2131 is fastened to the second latching hole 3102. This achieves mutual fixation between the first housing 11 and the third housing 31, as well as between the second housing 21 and the third housing 31, so that the bottom of the entire combined atomizer 1 can be stably kept in the receiving cavity 310 of the third housing 31 and is not easy to detach from each other. When the atomizing liquid in the reservoir 2 is depleted and a new reservoir 2 needs to be replaced, use your hand to pull the bottom of the combined atomizer 1 out of the receiving cavity 310 of the third housing 31. Then, pry the combined atomizer 1 apart so that the atomizer 1 is separated from the old reservoir 2. Then, repeat the previous assembly operations to combine the three modules of atomizer 1, new reservoir 2 and power supply component 3 into a new vapor generation device.

[0102] Furthermore, please refer to the following: Figure 1 , Figure 3 , Figure 9 , Figure 13 , Figure 15 as well as Figure 25-26 In some optional embodiments of this application, the first housing 11 has a first flange portion 115 protruding from its circumferential sidewalls (excluding the first sidewall 111) and extending circumferentially from its circumferential sidewalls (excluding the second sidewall 211).

The first flange portion 115 and the second flange portion 215 are joined together to form an annular flange 4, which covers one end face of the third housing 31 where the receiving cavity 310 is located. This arrangement allows the annular flange 4 to cover the installation gaps between the first housing 11 and the third housing 31, as well as between the second housing 21 and the third housing 31, thereby improving the aesthetic appearance of the mist generating device.
