Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of atomization technology, and in particular to an atomization component and atomization device. Background Technology

[0002] Atomizing devices heat the atomizing matrix to convert it into an aerosol, which is then inhaled by the user. The core component for heating the atomizing matrix is ​​the atomizing core. In related technologies, a tubular metal component is typically used to enclose the atomizing core, providing support and fixation. To guide the atomizing matrix to the atomizing core, the metal component has an oil inlet hole through which the atomizing matrix in the reservoir is guided to the atomizing core. Simultaneously, the metal component needs a cotton retainer groove to hold and fix the oil-guiding cotton in place of the atomizing core. However, the above-mentioned technologies have the following drawbacks: During use, when the liquid level in the reservoir is lower than the oil inlet hole, the oil inlet hole is exposed, making it difficult to create negative pressure inside the reservoir, thus easily leading to air leakage and oil spillage. Utility Model Content

[0003] The technical problem to be solved by this application is to provide an improved atomizing component and atomizing device, addressing at least one of the deficiencies mentioned in the background art.

[0004] In some embodiments, an atomizing component is provided, which is applied in an atomizing device. The atomizing device includes a liquid reservoir and a support. The liquid reservoir stores an atomizing matrix, and the support abuts against the bottom end of the liquid reservoir. The atomizing component includes a first liquid guide, a second liquid guide, and a heating element. The first liquid guide supports and fixes the second liquid guide. The first liquid guide is at least partially in fluid communication with the liquid reservoir and one end is fixed to the support. The first liquid guide is a rigid solid structure and has a plurality of interconnected micropores. The second liquid guide is fixed to the inner side of the first liquid guide and is made of a fibrous material. The heating element is disposed on the second liquid guide. The atomizing matrix in the liquid reservoir is sequentially transported to the heating element via the first liquid guide and the second liquid guide for heating and atomization.

[0005] In some embodiments, the first conductive liquid is made of a ceramic material; and / or, the fibrous material includes at least one of natural cotton, bamboo fiber, glass fiber, nylon, polyester, and cellulose acetate.

[0006] In some embodiments, the porosity of the micropores of the first liquid guide is 50% to 65%.

[0007] In some embodiments, the first liquid guide and the second liquid guide are tubular structures that extend through both ends; the axial length of the first liquid guide is greater than the axial length of the second liquid guide, and / or, the outer peripheral surface of the second liquid guide is completely in contact with the first liquid guide, and / or, the outer peripheral surface of the first liquid guide is completely in contact with the liquid storage device.

[0008] In some embodiments, the bracket is an elastic element, and the bracket is provided with a mounting hole, wherein one end of the first liquid guide is interference-fitted with the mounting hole.

[0009] In some embodiments, the heating element includes a connected heating body and at least two electrode leads, the heating body being attached to the inner circumferential surface of the second conductive liquid; the length of the heating body along the inner circumferential direction of the second conductive liquid is less than the inner circumference of the second conductive liquid, and the two electrode leads are respectively connected to opposite ends of the heating body along the inner circumferential direction of the second conductive liquid.

[0010] In some embodiments, the atomizing assembly further includes a mounting base disposed within the space enclosed by the first conductive liquid and located on one side of the second conductive liquid, each electrode lead being fixed to the mounting base, and one end of each electrode lead extending away from the heating element extending beyond the first conductive liquid.

[0011] In some embodiments, the mounting base is provided with at least two lead channels, and the at least two electrode leads pass through the lead channels for fixation; wherein, the lead channels are located on the outside of the mounting base, or the lead channels are through holes in the mounting base.

[0012] In some embodiments, the fixing base is made of a non-metallic material; and / or, the first liquid guide forms a tubular cavity, the fixing base and the second liquid guide are disposed in the tubular cavity, the second liquid guide forms a first air guide hole, the fixing base forms a second air guide hole, and the second air guide hole, the first air guide hole and the tubular cavity are connected.

[0013] In some embodiments, an atomizing device is also provided, which includes a power supply, a liquid reservoir, a support, and an atomizing component as described in any one of the above embodiments; the power supply is connected to the atomizing component; the liquid reservoir stores an atomizing matrix; the support abuts against the bottom end of the liquid reservoir; a first liquid guide of the atomizing component is at least partially in fluid communication with the liquid reservoir; and one end of the first liquid guide is fixed to the support.

[0014] According to the atomizing component of the above embodiment, since the first liquid guide, which is a rigid solid structure, has several interconnected micropores, the first liquid guide can transfer the atomizing matrix to the second liquid guide through these micropores. Therefore, the first liquid guide does not need any visible holes, grooves, or other structures, and its overall rigidity is good, providing sufficient support for the second liquid guide and enabling it to support and fix the second liquid guide. Since the first liquid guide does not need an inlet, the problem of air leakage and oil leakage is effectively avoided. Because one end of the first liquid guide is fixed to the bracket, and the second liquid guide is fixed to the inside of the first liquid guide, the first liquid guide can both support the second liquid guide and indirectly fix the second liquid guide to the bracket using its own rigidity.

[0032] The component designations used in this document, such as "first" and "second," are solely for distinguishing the described objects and have no sequential or technical meaning. The terms "connection" and "linkage" used in this application, unless otherwise specified, include both direct and indirect connections (linkages). Please refer to [link / reference]. Figure 1 In some embodiments, an atomizing device is provided, comprising an atomizing component and a power supply 6 connected to the atomizing component. The atomizing component and the power supply 6 may be detachably or non-detachably connected. The power supply 6 is electrically connected to the atomizing component. The atomizing device has a liquid storage chamber for storing a liquid atomizing matrix. In some embodiments, the atomizing device further includes a liquid storage element 7 and a support 8. The support 8 abuts against the bottom end of the liquid storage element 7. The liquid storage element 7 is disposed within the liquid storage chamber and stores the atomizing matrix. The liquid storage element 7 may be a fibrous material, and the liquid storage element 7 within the liquid storage chamber is capable of adsorbing and storing the liquid atomizing matrix. The fibrous material may include one of natural cotton, bamboo fiber, glass fiber, nylon (PA, polyamide), polyester (PET, polyethylene terephthalate), and cellulose acetate.

[0033] Please see Figures 1 to 4In some embodiments, an atomizing assembly is provided, comprising a first liquid guide 1, a second liquid guide 2, and a heating element 3. The first liquid guide 1 is at least partially in fluid communication with a liquid storage container 7, and one end is fixed to a support 8. The second liquid guide 2 is fixed to the inner side of the first liquid guide 1. The first liquid guide 1 and the second liquid guide 2 are respectively tubular structures with both ends open. Of course, the first liquid guide 1 and the second liquid guide 2 can also have other specific structures. The first liquid guide 1 completely surrounds the periphery of the second liquid guide 2, that is, the first liquid guide 1 has no visible holes, grooves, or other structures, and the outer peripheral surface of the second liquid guide 2 is completely covered by the first liquid guide 1. The heating element 3 is disposed on the second liquid guide 2. When the atomizing assembly and the power supply device 6 are connected together, the power supply device 6 can form an electrical connection with the heating element 3. The atomizing matrix in the liquid storage container 7 is sequentially transported to the heating element 3 via the first liquid guide 1 and the second liquid guide 2 for heating and atomization.

[0034] The first liquid guide 1 is a one-piece molded structure and has several interconnected micropores. These micropores are pores invisible to the naked eye and are naturally formed within the first liquid guide 1 during its molding process. The second liquid guide 2 is made of a fibrous material. The fibrous material may include at least one of natural cotton, bamboo fiber, glass fiber, nylon (PA, polyamide), polyester (PET, polyethylene terephthalate), and cellulose acetate. Both the first liquid guide 1 and the second liquid guide 2 serve to transport liquid. The first liquid guide 1 transports the atomized matrix to the second liquid guide 2 through the micropores. Specifically, the first liquid guide 1 is directly exposed in the storage cavity; for example, the outer peripheral surface of the first liquid guide 1 can be in contact with the storage element 7. The first liquid guide 1 is connected to the storage element 7 in the storage cavity through its micropores. The atomized matrix stored in the storage element 7 permeates into the first liquid guide 1 through the micropores and gradually penetrates into the second liquid guide 2, finally contacting the heating element 3 on the second liquid guide 2. When powered on, the heating element 3 generates heat to heat and atomize the atomizing matrix into an aerosol for the user to inhale.

[0035] Since the second conductive liquid 2 is a fibrous material, its supporting force on the heating element 3 is insufficient, requiring the first conductive liquid 1 to provide support. Therefore, the first conductive liquid 1 also supports and fixes the second conductive liquid 2. To effectively support and fix the second conductive liquid 2, the first conductive liquid 1 is a rigid solid structure. Specifically, the first conductive liquid 1 can be made of a rigid fixing material, while the second conductive liquid 2 can be made of a soft fibrous material. In other words, the hardness of the first conductive liquid 1 is greater than that of the second conductive liquid 2, allowing the first conductive liquid 1 to support and fix the second conductive liquid 2. The first conductive liquid 1 is used both to support and fix the second conductive liquid 2 inside it and to support and fix the entire atomizing assembly inside the atomizing device.

[0036] Since the first liquid conductor 1 is connected to the liquid storage cavity through its micropores, the first liquid conductor 1 does not need to have any visible holes, grooves or other structures. Its overall rigidity is good, and it can provide sufficient support for the second liquid conductor 2, so that the heating element 3 on the second liquid conductor 2 is not easily deformed.

[0037] In summary, because the rigid solid structure of the first liquid guide 1 has several interconnected micropores, the first liquid guide 1 can transfer the atomized matrix to the second liquid guide 2 through these micropores. Therefore, the first liquid guide 1 does not need any visible holes, grooves, or other structures, and its overall rigidity is good, providing sufficient support for the second liquid guide 2. This allows it to support and fix the second liquid guide 2, making it less prone to deformation of the heating element 3 on the second liquid guide 2. Since the first liquid guide 1 does not need an inlet hole, problems such as air leakage, oil leakage, and condensate backflow are effectively avoided. Because one end of the first liquid guide 1 is fixed to the bracket 8, and the second liquid guide 2 is fixed to the inside of the first liquid guide 1, the first liquid guide 1 can not only support the second liquid guide 2 but also indirectly fix the second liquid guide 2 to the bracket 8 using its own rigidity.

[0038] like Figure 3 As shown, in some embodiments, the first liquid guide 1 and the second liquid guide 2 are tubular structures that extend through both ends. Furthermore, the axial length of the first liquid guide 1 can be greater than the axial length of the second liquid guide 2. "Axial" can be referred to as... Figure 3 In the Y direction. Furthermore, the outer peripheral surface of the second liquid guide 2 can be completely in contact with the first liquid guide 1, thus maximizing the contact area between the second liquid guide 2 and the first liquid guide 1, ensuring the transmission rate of the atomizing matrix. Similarly, the outer peripheral surface of the first liquid guide 1 can also be completely in contact with the liquid storage component 7, thus maximizing the contact area between the first liquid guide 1 and the liquid storage component 7, ensuring the transmission rate of the atomizing matrix.

[0039] like Figure 6 As shown, in some embodiments, the support 8 is an elastic element with a mounting hole 80. One end of the first liquid guide 1 is press-fitted with the mounting hole 80, forming a sealed connection between the first liquid guide 1 and the wall of the mounting hole 80, preventing the atomizing matrix from leaking out from the gap between the first liquid guide 1 and the mounting hole 80. The support 8 encloses an annular space with the surface (upper surface) of the liquid storage component 7 and the outer peripheral surface of the first liquid guide 1. The liquid storage component 7 is at least partially located within this annular space. The atomizing matrix precipitated from the liquid storage component 7 is confined within this annular space, preventing the atomizing matrix precipitated from the liquid storage component 7 from flowing uncontrollably to other locations, causing pollution, damage to electronic components, and other problems.

[0040] like Figure 3As shown, in some embodiments, the heating element 3 includes a connected heating body 31 and at least two electrode leads 32, with the heating body 31 disposed on the second conductive liquid 2. The ends of the two electrode leads 32, away from the heating body 31, extend beyond the first conductive liquid 1 for connection to the power supply device 6.

[0041] In related technologies, the metal components used to fix the atomizing core are prone to short circuits due to contact with the electrode lead 32, as they are made of metal. In some embodiments, the first liquid guide 1 can be made of ceramic material; that is, the first liquid guide 1 can be a one-piece molded ceramic tube without any visible holes, grooves, or other structures. The atomizing matrix in the storage chamber is transferred to the second liquid guide 2 through the micropores of the ceramic structure itself. The porosity of the micropores of the first liquid guide 1 can be 50% to 65%, that is, the porosity of the micropores of the first liquid guide 1 can be any value between 50%, 65%, or 50% and 65%. By controlling the porosity of the micropores of the first liquid guide 1 to 50% to 65%, the liquid guiding speed is neither too fast nor too slow, resulting in a moderate liquid guiding speed. Furthermore, since the first liquid guide 1 is made of ceramic material, a short circuit will not occur even if the electrode lead 32 comes into contact with the first liquid guide 1.

[0042] like Figure 5 As shown, in some embodiments, the heating element 31 is attached to the inner circumferential surface of the second liquid conductor 2. The length of the heating element 31 along the inner circumferential direction of the second liquid conductor 2 is less than the inner circumference of the second liquid conductor 2, and two electrode leads 32 are respectively connected to the opposite ends of the heating element 31 along the inner circumferential direction of the second liquid conductor 2. In this way, it can be ensured that the two electrode leads 32 do not contact each other, avoiding short circuits. At the same time, since the length of the heating element 31 along the inner circumferential direction of the second liquid conductor 2 is less than the inner circumference of the second liquid conductor 2, the two ends of the heating element 31 along the inner circumferential direction of the second liquid conductor 2 do not contact each other, that is, the heating element 31 has a non-closed annular shape. Such a shape is less robust than a closed annular shape, resulting in a greater risk of deformation of the heating element 3. In order to reduce the risk of deformation of the heating element 3, the supporting force required for the heating element 3 is also greater. Correspondingly, since the first liquid conductor 1 can be free of any visible holes, grooves, or other structures, the rigidity of the first liquid conductor 1 is improved, and the first liquid conductor 1 can provide sufficient supporting force for the second liquid conductor 2, making the heating element 3 on the second liquid conductor 2 less prone to deformation.

[0043] To further improve the problem of deformation of the heating element 3 due to insufficient support, such as... Figure 1 , Figure 3 and Figure 4As shown, in some embodiments, the atomizing assembly further includes a mounting base 4, which is disposed within the space enclosed by the first liquid guide 1 and located on one side of the second liquid guide 2 (see the lower side of the second liquid guide 2 in the figure). Each electrode lead 32 is fixed to the mounting base 4. That is, a portion of the electrode lead 32 can be supported and fixed by the mounting base 4.

[0044] In some embodiments, the mounting base 4 is provided with at least two lead channels 43, and at least two electrode leads 32 pass through the lead channels 43 for fixation; wherein, the lead channels 43 are located on the outside of the mounting base 4, or the lead channels 43 are through holes in the mounting base 4. Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the mounting base 4 includes a first surface 41 facing the second liquid conductor 2 (refer to the upper surface of the mounting base 4 in the figure) and a second surface 42 facing away from the second liquid conductor 2 (refer to the lower surface of the mounting base 4 in the figure). The mounting base 4 is provided with at least two lead channels 43 penetrating the first surface 41 and the second surface 42, and at least two electrode leads 32 are passed through the lead channels 43 for fixation. That is, the electrode leads 32 and the lead channels 43 can be tightly fitted to fix the position of the electrode leads 32. Specifically, as shown... Figure 4 and Figure 5 In the illustrated embodiment, the circumferential edge of the mounting base 4 is recessed with a plurality of lead wire grooves, which serve as lead wire channels 43. Alternatively, in some other embodiments, the lead wire channel 43 may also be a lead wire hole located at other positions on the mounting base 4.

[0045] Furthermore, such as Figure 4 As shown, in some embodiments, multiple lead slots can be evenly arranged along the circumference of the mounting base 4. Thus, the number of lead slots exceeds the number of electrode leads 32, allowing each electrode lead 32 to engage with any two lead slots during atomization assembly installation, facilitating rapid installation.

[0046] In some embodiments, the mounting base 4 may be made of a non-metallic material to avoid short circuits between the mounting base 4 and the electrode lead 32.

[0047] like Figures 2 to 4As shown, in some embodiments, a first liquid guide 1 encloses a tubular cavity 50, a fixing base 4 and a second liquid guide 2 are disposed within the tubular cavity 50, the second liquid guide 2 encloses a first air guide hole 51, and the fixing base 4 encloses a second air guide hole 52. The second air guide hole 52, the first air guide hole 51 and the tubular cavity 50 are interconnected to form an atomizing airway. The atomizing device is also provided with an air inlet channel (not shown) and an air outlet channel 53 that communicate with the outside atmosphere. The atomizing airway is connected to the air inlet channel and the air outlet channel 53, respectively. Outside air enters the interior of the atomizing device through the air inlet channel. After the air mixes with the aerosol generated near the heating element 3, it overflows from the air outlet channel 53 to the mouthpiece of the atomizing device for the user to inhale.

[0048] The above-described specific examples are for illustrative purposes only and are not intended to limit the scope of this invention. Those skilled in the art to which this invention pertains can make various simple deductions, modifications, or substitutions based on the concept of this invention.
