Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of atomizer technology, specifically relating to an atomizer air passage and an atomizer. Background Technology

[0002] With the booming development of the atomizer market, consumers' demands for the functionality and user experience of atomizer products are also increasing. Traditional atomizers primarily offer two activation methods: manual and automatic. Manual activation requires the user to actively press a button to trigger aerosol output. While intuitive, it lacks convenience, especially in urgent or inconvenient situations, impacting the user experience. Automatic activation, such as using infrared or capacitive sensors to detect the user's inhalation, improves convenience to some extent, but these sensors are susceptible to environmental interference, potentially leading to false triggers or insufficient sensitivity, thus affecting the atomizer's normal operation and user experience.

[0003] In existing technology, the atomizer has a built-in fan, and the fan and heating wire are controlled by a button. After the fan rotates, the atomized aerosol produced by the heating wire heating the atomizing oil needs to be blown into the mouth through the air passage inside the machine. The air passage needs to blow out the atomized mist to ensure that the atomized aerosol is fully delivered.

[0004] However, when the fan is not turned on, the fan and the atomizing cartridge remain connected, so the atomizer cannot switch between mouth-to-lung (MTL) and vaping modes. In other words, atomizers with a fan can only operate in fan-activated mode and cannot support MTL mode, allowing users to switch as needed. Utility Model Content

[0005] In view of this, the main objective of this utility model is to provide an atomizer air passage and an atomizer.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution of this utility model is implemented as follows:

[0007] This utility model embodiment provides an atomizer air passage, including a first air passage;

[0008] The first air passage is located between the atomizing bomb and the fan, and is used to drive the airflow introduced by the fan into the atomizing bomb;

[0009] The first air passage is also used to be in a conducting state when the fan is in the on state and in a closed state when the fan is in the off state.

[0010] The above solution also includes an airway status control component;

[0011] The airway state control component is movably disposed within the first airway. It is used to adjust to a first position to enable the first airway to be in a conducting state when the fan is on, and to adjust to a second position to enable the first airway to be in a closed state when the fan is off.

[0012] In the above scheme, the airway state control component includes a baffle plate, which is movably disposed within the first airway and is used to reciprocate radially along the first airway to control the opening or closing state of the first airway.

[0013] In the above scheme, the baffle is provided with a fan air passage hole that matches the first air passage.

[0014] In the above scheme, the baffle is provided with return springs on both sides, which are used to move downward when the baffle is subjected to pressing force so that the first air passage and the fan air passage hole are aligned, and to move upward under the elastic force of the return spring when the baffle is not subjected to pressing force so that the first air passage and the fan air passage hole are misaligned.

[0015] The above plan also includes a second airway;

[0016] The second air passage is connected to the atomizing bullet and is used to drive the airflow in the second air passage into the atomizing bullet when suction is generated on the side of the atomizing bullet;

[0017] The second airway contains a pressure sensor to detect the pressure difference within the second airway.

[0018] This utility model embodiment also provides an atomizer, including a housing, an atomizing bullet, a fan, a controller, and an atomizer air passage as described in the above solution;

[0019] The fan is located inside the housing on the side near the airflow inlet and is used to introduce airflow during operation.

[0020] The atomizing bullet is located on the side of the casing opposite to the fan, and is used to generate atomized aerosol by heating synchronously with the fan after it is started. The atomized aerosol is then supplied to the user with the introduced airflow.

[0021] The atomizer air passage connects the atomizing bullet and the fan, and is used to introduce airflow into the atomizing bullet according to the working state of the synchronous fan, and is in a conducting state when the fan is on, and in a closed state when the fan is off.

[0022] The controller is used to activate the atomizing bullet when the fan is on and to deactivate the atomizing bullet when the fan is off.

[0023] The above plan also includes a second airway;

[0024] The second air passage is connected to the atomizing bullet and is used to drive the airflow in the second air passage into the atomizing bullet when suction is generated on the side of the atomizing bullet;

[0025] The second airway contains a pressure sensor to detect the pressure difference within the second airway;

[0026] The controller is also used to activate the atomizing bomb after receiving the differential pressure signal from the pressure sensor.

[0027] The above solution also includes a button for controlling the working state of the fan. The button is disposed on the housing, and one end of the baffle of the air duct state control component is disposed on the button.

[0028] Compared with the prior art, when the fan is on, the first air passage of this invention remains unobstructed, ensuring that the airflow introduced by the fan can diffuse to the atomizing bullet, so as to drive the atomized aerosol to supply the user. When the fan is off, the first air passage is automatically closed, the atomizing bullet does not work, and the atomizer is not activated. Attached Figure Description

[0035] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the present utility model and are not intended to limit the present utility model.

They are only for the convenience of describing this utility model and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or component referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, the terms used to describe positional relationships in the drawings are only for illustrative purposes and should not be construed as limiting this patent. For those skilled in the art, the specific meaning of the above terms can be understood according to the specific circumstances.

[0037] It should be noted that, in this document, the terms "comprising," "including," or any other variations thereof are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion, such that a process, article, or apparatus that comprises a list of elements includes not only those elements but also other elements not expressly listed, or elements inherent to such a process, article, or apparatus. Without further limitation, an element defined by the phrase "comprising one..." does not exclude the presence of other identical elements in the process, article, or apparatus that includes that element.

[0038] Embodiment 1 of this utility model provides an atomizer air passage, such as Figure 1 , 2 As shown, it includes the first airway 1;

[0039] The first air passage 1 is located between the atomizing bullet 2 and the fan 3, and is used to drive the airflow introduced by the fan 3 into the atomizing bullet 2;

[0040] The first air passage 1 is also used to be in a conducting state when the fan 3 is in the on state, and in a closed state when the fan 3 is in the off state.

[0041] When the fan 3 is on, the first air passage 1 remains unobstructed, ensuring that the airflow introduced by the fan 3 can diffuse to the atomizing bullet 2, so as to drive the atomized aerosol to supply the user. When the fan 3 is off, the first air passage 1 is automatically closed, the atomizing bullet 2 does not work, and the atomizer is not activated.

[0042] Generally speaking, when the fan 3 is on, the atomizing cartridge 2 begins to generate atomized aerosol through heating. In other words, the control unit of the atomizer links the states of the fan 3 and the atomizing cartridge 2. When the user turns on the fan 3, the heating process of the atomizing cartridge 2 is simultaneously activated through the control unit.

[0043] Furthermore, it also includes an airway status control component 4;

[0044] The airway state control component 4 is movably disposed within the first airway 1. It is used to adjust to a first position to adjust the first airway 1 to a conducting state when the fan 3 is in the on state, and to adjust to a second position to adjust the first airway 1 to a closed state when the fan 3 is in the off state.

[0045] This invention, through the switching of the airway state control component 4 between the first and second positions, can precisely control the conduction state of the first airway 1 when the fan 3 is on and the closed state when the fan 3 is off. This not only improves the efficiency of atomized aerosol transmission but also greatly enhances the stability and reliability of the equipment.

[0046] For example, the first position corresponds to the on state and the second position corresponds to the off state; of course, it can be replaced as needed.

[0047] Specifically, the airway state control component 4 includes a baffle 41, which is movably disposed within the first airway 1 and is used to reciprocate radially along the first airway 1 to control the open or closed state of the first airway 1.

[0048] The baffle 41 is provided with a fan air passage hole 411 that matches the first air passage 1.

[0049] When the baffle 41 moves to the first position (that is, the fan air duct hole 411 is aligned with the first air duct 1), the first air duct 1 can be opened, allowing the atomized aerosol to smoothly enter the fan 3; when the baffle 41 moves to the second position (that is, the fan air duct hole 411 is misaligned with the first air duct 1), the first air duct 1 can be closed to prevent the atomized aerosol from leaking, effectively realizing the control of the opening and closing state of the first air duct 1.

[0050] For example, in order to associate the movement of the baffle 41 with the working state of the fan 3, one end of the baffle 41 can be set on the button 8 used to control the working state of the fan 3. When the user presses the button 8, the fan 3 is turned on. At this time, the baffle 41 moves downward with the button 8 to the first position (that is, the fan air passage hole 411 is aligned with the first air passage 1), opening the first air passage 1 so that the atomized aerosol can smoothly enter the fan 3. When the user releases the button 8, the fan 3 is turned off. At this time, when the baffle 41 moves upward to the second position (that is, the fan air passage hole 411 is misaligned with the first air passage 1), the first air passage 1 can be closed to prevent the atomized aerosol from leaking, effectively realizing the control of the opening and closing state of the first air passage 1.

[0051] like Figure 3 As shown, the baffle 41 and the button 8 adopt an integrated structure.

[0052] More specifically, the baffle 41 is provided with return springs 412 on both sides, which are used to move the baffle 41 downward under the action of pressing force so that the first air passage 1 and the fan air passage hole 411 are aligned, and to move the baffle 41 upward under the action of the elastic force of the return springs 412 when the baffle 41 is not under the action of pressing force so that the first air passage 1 and the fan air passage hole 411 are misaligned.

[0053] Return springs 412 are installed on both sides of the baffle 41. The return springs 412 provide a restoring force to ensure that the baffle 41 can return to its initial position when no external force is applied. On the other hand, they help the baffle 41 to move smoothly and controllably when subjected to external force.

[0054] When the baffle 41 is pressed, the external force will overcome the elastic force of the return spring 412, causing the baffle 41 to move downward. During the downward movement, the first air passage 1 and the fan air passage hole 411 will gradually align. Once the two are fully aligned, the airflow introduced by the fan 3 can flow unobstructed through the fan air passage hole 411 and then enter the atomizing bullet 2 through the first air passage 1.

[0055] However, when the pressure is released, the return spring 412 will activate, pushing the baffle 41 upwards until it returns to its initial position. During this process, the first air passage 1 and the fan air passage 411 will gradually shift apart, thereby blocking the airflow and closing the first air passage 1.

[0056] Embodiment 2 of this utility model provides an atomizer air passage, such as Figure 4 As shown, it includes a first airway 1 and a second airway 6;

[0057] The first air passage 1 is located between the atomizing bullet 2 and the fan 3, and is used to drive the airflow introduced by the fan 3 into the atomizing bullet 2;

[0058] The first air passage 1 is also used to be in a conducting state when the fan 3 is in the on state, and in a closed state when the fan 3 is in the off state.

[0059] The second air passage 6 is connected to the atomizing bullet 2 and is used to drive the airflow in the second air passage 6 into the atomizing bullet 2 when suction is generated on the side of the atomizing bullet 2;

[0060] The second airway 6 contains a pressure sensor 61, which is used to detect the pressure difference within the second airway 6.

[0061] This invention enables the atomizer to switch between fan-activated mode and mouth-inhalation mode by switching the conduction state of the first airway 1 and the second airway 6, that is, by supplying the atomized aerosol to the user through different airways.

[0062] In some embodiments, the second airway 6 is a chamber connected to the atomizing bullet 2. When the user inhales through the atomizing bullet 2, a pressure difference is generated in the chamber.

[0063] The fan start mode refers to the atomizer actively outputting atomized aerosol when fan 3 is started.

[0064] The mouth-to-lung mode refers to the atomizing cartridge 2 being activated when the fan 3 is off, due to the user's active inhalation, a pressure difference is generated inside the atomizer, namely the second airway 6, and the atomizer passively outputs atomized aerosol.

[0065] In mouth-inhalation mode, fan 3 is off and first airway 1 is closed. When the user inhales from atomizing cartridge 2, second airway 6 generates a large pressure difference, which activates air pressure sensor 61. This, in turn, activates atomizing cartridge 2 to start heating and generate atomized aerosol through the linked control unit.

[0066] Then the airflow in the second airway 6 is introduced into the atomizing bullet 2, which drives the atomized aerosol to be supplied to the user.

[0067] Furthermore, it also includes an airway status control component 4;

[0068] The airway state control component 4 is disposed in the first airway 1 and is used to control the airway state to be in the conducting state when the fan 3 is in the on state and to be in the off state when the fan 3 is in the off state by changing its position.

[0069] In fan-activated mode, when fan 3 is on, the first airway 1 remains unobstructed, ensuring that the airflow introduced by fan 3 can diffuse to the atomizing cartridge 2, so as to drive the atomized aerosol to supply the user. When fan 3 is off, the first airway 1 is automatically closed, the atomizing cartridge 2 does not work, and the atomizer is not activated.

[0070] This invention, through the switching of the airway state control component 4 between the first and second positions, can precisely control the conduction state of the first airway 1 when the fan 3 is on and the closed state when the fan 3 is off. This not only improves the efficiency of atomized aerosol transmission but also greatly enhances the stability and reliability of the equipment.

[0071] For example, the first position corresponds to the on state and the second position corresponds to the off state; of course, it can be replaced as needed.

[0072] Specifically, the airway state control component 4 includes a baffle 41, which is movably disposed within the first airway 1 and is used to reciprocate radially along the first airway 1 to control the open or closed state of the first airway 1.

[0073] The baffle 41 is provided with a fan air passage hole 411 that matches the first air passage 1.

[0074] When the baffle 41 moves to the first position (that is, the fan air duct hole 411 is aligned with the first air duct 1), the first air duct 1 can be opened, allowing the atomized aerosol to smoothly enter the fan 3; when the baffle 41 moves to the second position (that is, the fan air duct hole 411 is misaligned with the first air duct 1), the first air duct 1 can be closed to prevent the atomized aerosol from leaking, effectively realizing the control of the opening and closing state of the first air duct 1.

[0075] For example, in order to associate the movement of the baffle 41 with the working state of the fan 3, one end of the baffle 41 can be set on the button 8 used to control the working state of the fan 3. When the user presses the button 8, the fan 3 is turned on. At this time, the baffle 41 moves downward with the button 8 to the first position (that is, the fan air passage hole 411 is aligned with the first air passage 1), opening the first air passage 1 so that the atomized aerosol can smoothly enter the fan 3. When the user presses the button 8 again, the fan 3 is turned off. The button 8 pops up. At this time, the baffle 41 moves upward with the button 8 to the second position (that is, the fan air passage hole 411 is misaligned with the first air passage 1), which can close the first air passage 1 and prevent the atomized aerosol from leaking. This effectively realizes the control of the opening and closing state of the first air passage 1.

[0076] More specifically, the baffle 41 is provided with return springs 412 on both sides, which are used to move the baffle 41 downward under the action of pressing force so that the first air passage 1 and the fan air passage hole 411 are aligned, and to move the baffle 41 upward under the action of the elastic force of the return springs 412 when the baffle 41 is not under the action of pressing force so that the first air passage 1 and the fan air passage hole 411 are misaligned.

[0077] Return springs 412 are installed on both sides of the baffle 41. The return springs 412 provide a restoring force to ensure that the baffle 41 can return to its initial position when no external force is applied. On the other hand, they help the baffle 41 to move smoothly and controllably when subjected to external force.

[0078] When the baffle 41 is pressed, the external force will overcome the elastic force of the return spring 412, causing the baffle 41 to move downward. During the downward movement, the first air passage 1 and the fan air passage hole 411 will gradually align. Once the two are fully aligned, the airflow introduced by the fan 3 can flow unobstructed through the fan air passage hole 411 and then enter the atomizing bullet 2 through the first air passage 1.

[0079] However, when the pressure is released, the return spring 412 will activate, pushing the baffle 41 upwards until it returns to its initial position. During this process, the first air passage 1 and the fan air passage 411 will gradually shift apart, thereby blocking the airflow and closing the first air passage 1.

[0080] Embodiment 3 of this utility model provides an atomizer, such as Figure 5 As shown, it includes a housing 7, an atomizing bullet 2, a fan 3, a controller, and an atomizer air passage;

[0081] The fan 3 is located inside the housing 7 on the side near the airflow inlet 5, and is used to introduce airflow in the working state;

[0082] The atomizing bullet 2 is disposed on the side of the housing 7 opposite to the fan 3, and is used to generate atomized aerosol synchronously when the fan 3 is started, and the atomized aerosol is supplied to the user with the introduced airflow.

[0083] The atomizer air passage connects the atomizing cartridge 2 and the fan 3, and is used to introduce airflow into the atomizing cartridge 2 according to the working state of the synchronous fan 3. When the fan 3 is on, the airflow is directed to the atomizing cartridge 2, and when the fan 3 is off, the airflow is directed to the atomizing cartridge 2.

[0084] The controller is used to turn on the atomizing bullet 2 when the fan 3 is on, and to turn off the atomizing bullet 2 when the fan 3 is off.

[0085] When the fan 3 is on, the first air passage 1 remains unobstructed, ensuring that the airflow introduced by the fan 3 can diffuse to the atomizing cartridge 2. At the same time, after the controller determines that the fan 3 is on, it also simultaneously turns on the atomizing cartridge 2. Thus, the airflow introduced by the fan 3 drives the atomized aerosol generated by the atomizing cartridge 2 to be output, so as to supply the atomized aerosol to the user. When the fan 3 is off, the first air passage 1 is automatically closed. At the same time, after the controller determines that the fan 3 is off, it also simultaneously turns off the atomizing cartridge 2, and the atomizing cartridge 2 does not work, and the atomizer is not activated.

[0086] The working process of the atomizer air passage is as described in Example 1.

[0087] Embodiment 4 of this utility model provides an atomizer, such as Figure 5 As shown, it includes a housing 7, an atomizing bullet 2, a fan 3, a controller, and an atomizer air passage;

[0088] The fan 3 is located inside the housing 7 on the side near the airflow inlet 5, and is used to introduce airflow in the working state;

[0089] The atomizing bullet 2 is disposed on the side of the housing 7 opposite to the fan 3, and is used to generate atomized aerosol synchronously when the fan 3 is started, and the atomized aerosol is supplied to the user with the introduced airflow.

[0090] The atomizer air passage connects the atomizing cartridge 2 and the fan 3, and is used to introduce airflow into the atomizing cartridge 2 according to the working state of the synchronous fan 3. When the fan 3 is on, the airflow is directed to the atomizing cartridge 2, and when the fan 3 is off, the airflow is directed to the atomizing cartridge 2.

[0091] The controller is used to turn on the atomizing bullet 2 when the fan 3 is on, and to turn off the atomizing bullet 2 when the fan 3 is off.

[0092] The working process of the atomizer air passage is as described in Example 2.

[0093] This invention enables the atomizer to switch between fan-activated mode and mouth-inhalation mode by switching the conduction state of the first airway 1 and the second airway 6, that is, by supplying the atomized aerosol to the user through different airways.

[0094] In mouth-inhalation mode, fan 3 is off and first airway 1 is closed. When the user inhales from atomizing cartridge 2, second airway 6 generates a large pressure difference, which activates air pressure sensor 61. This, in turn, activates atomizing cartridge 2 to start heating and generate atomized aerosol through the linked control unit.

[0095] In fan-activated mode, when fan 3 is on, the first airway 1 remains unobstructed, ensuring that the airflow introduced by fan 3 can diffuse to the atomizing cartridge 2, so as to drive the atomized aerosol to supply the user. When fan 3 is off, the first airway 1 is automatically closed, the atomizing cartridge 2 does not work, and the atomizer is not activated.

[0096] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the scope of protection of the present utility model.
