Description

Technical Field

[0001] This disclosure relates to the technical field of atomizer manufacturing equipment, and in particular to a ceramic frame blowing limit mechanism, an atomizing module assembly device, and atomizer manufacturing equipment. Background Technology

[0002] In electronic atomizers, the atomizing module mainly consists of a support frame and a heating mesh. The heating mesh heats the atomizing medium flowing into the atomizing module to form an aerosol. Currently, because the heating mesh is mainly fixed to the support frame via pins, the operation is relatively complex. This leads some manufacturers to use automated atomizing module manufacturing mechanisms, such as those disclosed in Chinese patent document CN115256970A, for automated and efficient manufacturing of atomizing modules. However, in these automated atomizing module manufacturing mechanisms, the support frame is pushed into the receiving groove of the clamping frame by a top material block, and the support frame is confined within the receiving groove by its own deformation. When the support frame is a ceramic frame, due to its brittle texture and low toughness, the top material block can break the ceramic frame, resulting in increased production losses. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of this disclosure is to overcome the shortcomings of the prior art and provide a ceramic frame blowing limit mechanism, an atomizing module assembly device, and an atomizer manufacturing equipment that can reduce ceramic frame breakage and stabilize the ceramic frame.

[0004] The purpose of this disclosure is achieved through the following technical solution:

[0005] A ceramic holder blowing and limiting mechanism for picking up the ceramic holder of an atomizing module, comprising:

[0006] Mounting bracket, which is used for mounting on the atomizing module assembly frame;

[0007] A positioning seat is disposed on the mounting bracket. The positioning seat has a limiting groove for accommodating the ceramic bracket. An air passage is provided inside the positioning seat, and the first end of the air passage is connected to the limiting groove.

[0008] The negative pressure air pump is provided, wherein the suction end of the negative pressure air pump is connected to the second end of the air passage; the negative pressure air pump is used to extract air from the air passage so that the ceramic frame is adsorbed and confined within the limiting groove.

[0009] In some embodiments, the number of airways is at least two, and the first ends of the at least two airways are symmetrically arranged.

[0010] In some embodiments, a main airflow channel is provided in the mounting frame, the first end of the main airflow channel is connected to the second end of each of the air channels, and the second end of the main airflow channel is connected to the suction end of the negative pressure pump.

[0011] In some embodiments, the ceramic frame blowing limit mechanism further includes an air volume regulating valve, which is mounted on the mounting frame, and the second end of the main airflow channel is connected to the suction end of the negative pressure air pump through the air volume regulating valve.

[0012] In some embodiments, the ceramic frame blowing limiting mechanism further includes a positive pressure air blower, a first solenoid valve, a second solenoid valve, and a central control system; the suction pipe of the negative pressure air pump and the blowing pipe of the positive pressure air blower are both connected to the second end of the air passage; the first solenoid valve is disposed on the suction pipe, and the second solenoid valve is disposed on the blowing pipe; the central control system is used to drive the first solenoid valve to open or close the suction pipe, and to drive the second solenoid valve to open or close the blowing pipe.

[0013] In some embodiments, the shape of the limiting groove is adapted to the shape of the ceramic frame, and the volume of the limiting groove is greater than or equal to the volume of the ceramic frame.

[0014] In some embodiments, a pad block protrudes from the limiting groove and is used to accommodate the groove of the ceramic frame; the pad block has a mating surface that is mated to the inner wall of the groove of the ceramic frame; the pad block has an air port on the mating surface that is connected to the first end of the air passage.

[0015] In some embodiments, the padding block is provided with a clearance channel; each end of the clearance channel is configured to be positioned opposite to a side-pressure pre-bending rod.

[0016] An atomizing module assembly device includes an atomizing module assembly frame and a ceramic frame blowing and limiting mechanism according to any of the above embodiments; the mounting frame is installed on the atomizing module assembly frame.

[0017] An atomizer manufacturing apparatus includes an atomizer module assembly device according to any of the above embodiments.

[0018] Compared with the prior art, this disclosure has at least the following advantages:

[0019] The aforementioned ceramic holder blowing and limiting mechanism, due to the limiting groove on the positioning seat, allows the ceramic holder of the atomizing module to be accommodated first through the limiting groove when needed. Furthermore, since the first end of the air passage within the positioning seat is connected to the limiting groove, and the second end is connected to the suction end of a negative pressure pump, air can be drawn from the air passage by the negative pressure pump, creating a negative pressure within the limiting groove. This negative pressure directly adsorbs and securely holds the ceramic holder within the limiting groove. Compared to the existing technology's process of pushing the ceramic holder into the accommodating groove, the aforementioned process of using negative pressure to adsorb and fix the ceramic holder causes less damage to the ceramic holder, significantly reducing production losses.

[0039] To facilitate understanding of this disclosure, a more complete description will be given below with reference to the accompanying drawings, which illustrate preferred embodiments of the present disclosure. However, this disclosure can be implemented in many different forms and is not limited to the embodiments described herein. Rather, these embodiments are provided to provide a more thorough and complete understanding of the disclosure.

[0040] It should be noted that when an element is referred to as being "fixed to" another element, it can be directly attached to the other element or there may be an intervening element. When an element is referred to as being "connected to" another element, it can be directly connected to the other element or there may be an intervening element. The terms "vertical," "horizontal," "left," "right," and similar expressions used herein are for illustrative purposes only and do not represent the only possible implementation.

[0041] Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this disclosure belongs. The terminology used herein is for the purpose of describing particular embodiments only and is not intended to be limiting of this disclosure. The term "and / or" as used herein includes any and all combinations of one or more of the associated listed items.

[0042] To better understand the technical solutions and beneficial effects of this disclosure, the following detailed description is provided in conjunction with specific embodiments:

[0043] Please refer to the following: Figure 1 and Figure 2 In one embodiment, a ceramic frame blowing and limiting mechanism 100 is used to absorb the ceramic frame 20 of the atomizing module. The ceramic frame blowing and limiting mechanism 100 includes a mounting frame 110, a positioning seat 120, and a negative pressure vacuum pump (not shown). The mounting frame 110 is used to install on the atomizing module assembly frame 200. The positioning seat 120 is disposed on the mounting frame 110, and a limiting groove 1201 is provided on the positioning seat 120 for accommodating the ceramic frame 20. An air passage 1202 is provided in the positioning seat 120, and the first end of the air passage 1202 is connected to the limiting groove 1201. The suction end of the negative pressure vacuum pump is connected to the second end of the air passage 1202. The negative pressure vacuum pump is used to extract air from the air passage 1202 so that the ceramic frame 20 is adsorbed and limited in the limiting groove 1201.

[0044] It is understandable that, since the positioning seat 120 has a limiting groove 1201, when the ceramic frame 20 of the atomizing module needs to be obtained, it can be accommodated first through the limiting groove 1201. Furthermore, since the first end of the air passage 1202 inside the positioning seat 120 is connected to the limiting groove 1201, and the second end of the air passage 1202 inside the positioning seat 120 is connected to the suction end of the negative pressure pump, air can be drawn from the air passage 1202 by the negative pressure pump, thereby creating a negative pressure in the limiting groove 1201. This negative pressure can then directly adsorb the ceramic frame 20, ultimately securing it firmly within the limiting groove 1201. Compared to the existing technology of pushing the ceramic frame 20 into the accommodating groove, the above process of using negative pressure to adsorb and fix the ceramic frame 20 causes less damage to the ceramic frame 20, greatly reducing production losses.

[0045] In some embodiments, the negative pressure vacuum pump is a conventional vacuuming device such as a negative pressure pump or a fan. The specific device is not limited here, and those skilled in the art can make other choices as needed.

[0046] Please see Figure 2In some embodiments, the number of air passages 1202 is at least two, and the first ends of the at least two air passages 1202 are symmetrically arranged. It can be understood that, since the first ends of the at least two air passages 1202 are symmetrically arranged, when each air passage 1202 adsorbs the ceramic frame 20, the overall force distribution of the ceramic frame 20 is more uniform. This not only allows the ceramic frame 20 to be more stably confined within the limiting groove 1201, but also prevents the ceramic frame blowing and limiting mechanism 100 from malfunctioning due to an abnormality in a single air passage 1202.

[0047] Please see Figure 2 In some embodiments, a main airflow channel 1101 is provided within the mounting bracket 110. The first end of the main airflow channel 1101 is connected to the second end of each airway 1202, and the second end of the main airflow channel 1101 is connected to the suction end of the negative pressure vacuum pump. It can be understood that because the second end of the main airflow channel 1101 is connected to the suction end of the negative pressure vacuum pump, and the first end of the main airflow channel 1101 is connected to the second end of each airway 1202, air can be drawn from the main airflow channel 1101 by the negative pressure vacuum pump, thereby simultaneously creating negative pressure in each airway 1202. This allows the second ends of each airway 1202 to simultaneously generate suction on the ceramic frame 20, thus securely fixing the ceramic frame 20.

[0048] Please see Figure 3 In some embodiments, the ceramic frame blowing limiting mechanism 100 further includes an air volume regulating valve 1110, which is mounted on the mounting bracket 110. The second end of the main airflow channel 1101 is connected to the suction end of the negative pressure vacuum pump via the air volume regulating valve 1110. It can be understood that because the second end of the main airflow channel 1101 is connected to the suction end of the negative pressure vacuum pump via the air volume regulating valve 1110, the suction intensity of the negative pressure vacuum pump on the main airflow channel 1101 can be adjusted by the air volume regulating valve 1110 to accommodate ceramic frames 20 of different weights. It should be specifically noted that the method of adjusting the suction intensity of the negative pressure vacuum pump on the main airflow channel 1101 using the air volume regulating valve 1110 is prior art and is not within the scope of this disclosure.

[0049] Please combine them together Figure 2 and Figure 3In some embodiments, the ceramic frame blowing limiting mechanism 100 further includes a positive pressure air blower (not shown), a first solenoid valve (not shown), a second solenoid valve (not shown), and a central control system (not shown). The suction pipe of the negative pressure air blower and the blowing pipe of the positive pressure air blower are both connected to the second end of the air passage 1202. The first solenoid valve is disposed on the suction pipe, and the second solenoid valve is disposed on the blowing pipe. The central control system is used to drive the first solenoid valve to open or close the suction pipe, and to drive the second solenoid valve to open or close the blowing pipe. In some embodiments, the positive pressure air blower can be a positive pressure blower or other blowing device; however, this is not limited here, and those skilled in the art can make other selections as needed.

[0050] It is understandable that, since the suction pipe of the negative pressure air pump and the blowing pipe of the positive pressure air blower are both connected to the second end of the air passage 1202, the first solenoid valve is set on the suction pipe and the second solenoid valve is set on the blowing pipe, when it is necessary to obtain the ceramic frame 20 of the atomizing module, the ceramic frame 20 can be first accommodated by the limiting groove 1201, and then the central control system drives the first solenoid valve to open the suction pipe and drives the second solenoid valve to close the blowing pipe. At this time, the suction pipe of the negative pressure air pump is connected to the second end of the air passage 1202, and the air in the air passage 1202 is drawn out by the negative pressure air pump, thereby forming a negative pressure in the limiting groove 1201, which can then be used to directly adsorb the ceramic frame 20, and finally the ceramic frame 20 is reliably limited in the limiting groove 1201.

[0051] When the ceramic frame 20 of the atomizing module needs to be unloaded, the central control system can drive the first solenoid valve to close the intake pipe and drive the second solenoid valve to open the blowing pipe. At this time, the blowing pipe of the positive pressure blower is connected to the second end of the air passage 1202, so that the positive pressure blower blows air into the air passage 1202, and finally blows the ceramic frame 20 out of the limiting cavity 1201 through the air. It should be noted that the method of the central control system driving the first solenoid valve to open or close the intake pipe, and the method of the central control system driving the second solenoid valve to open or close the blowing pipe are both prior art and are not within the protection scope of this disclosure.

[0052] Please refer to the following: Figure 4 and Figure 5In some embodiments, the shape of the limiting groove 1201 is adapted to the shape of the ceramic holder 20, and the volume of the limiting groove 1201 is greater than or equal to the volume of the ceramic holder 20. It can be understood that because the shape of the limiting groove 1201 is adapted to the shape of the ceramic holder 20, that is, the contour of the limiting groove 1201 and the contour of the ceramic holder 20 can fit together concave and convexly, the ceramic holder 20 is less likely to become loose within the limiting groove 1201. At the same time, because the volume of the limiting groove 1201 is greater than or equal to the volume of the ceramic holder 20, the ceramic holder 20 can be easily accommodated within the limiting groove 1201, reducing the possibility of the ceramic holder 20 breaking due to compression. For example, when the volume of the limiting groove 1201 is smaller than the volume of the ceramic frame 20, the ceramic frame 20 will need to be pushed into the limiting groove 1201 with great force. The limiting groove 1201 will hold the ceramic frame 20 in place, which will not only make the ceramic frame 20 easy to break, but also make the subsequent unloading process inconvenient.

[0053] Please see Figure 5 In some embodiments, a pad block 1210 protrudes from the limiting groove 1201 and is used to accommodate the groove 201 of the ceramic frame 20. The pad block 1210 has a mating surface 1211 that is mated to the inner wall of the groove 201 of the ceramic frame 20. An air port 1212 is formed on the mating surface 1211 of the pad block 1210 and is connected to the first end of the air passage 1202. It is understandable that, since the mating surface 1211 of the pad block 1210 is attached to the inner wall of the groove 201 of the ceramic frame 20, and the air port 1212 on the mating surface 1211 is connected to the first end of the air passage 1202, the air port 1212 is drawn through the first end of the air passage 1202, so that a negative pressure sealing structure is formed between the mating surface 1211 and the inner wall of the groove 201 of the ceramic frame 20, so as to reduce the occurrence of air leakage between the mating surface 1211 and the inner wall of the groove 201 of the ceramic frame 20.

[0054] Please see Figure 5 In some embodiments, the pad block 1210 has a clearance channel 1213; each end of the clearance channel 1213 is positioned opposite to a side-pressure pre-bending rod 1320. It is understood that, since each end of the clearance channel 1213 is positioned opposite to a side-pressure pre-bending rod 1320, when the side-pressure pre-bending rod 1320 approaches the ceramic frame 20 to bend the leads 301 of the heating grid 30 to the upper surface of the ceramic frame 20, the clearance channel 1213 provides space for the movement of the side-pressure pre-bending rod 1320, thereby reducing interference between the side-pressure pre-bending rod 1320 and the pad block 1210.

[0055] Please refer to the following: Figure 4 and Figure 5In some embodiments, the ceramic frame blowing limiting mechanism 100 further includes a side pressure pre-folding assembly 130; a guide push side channel 1203 is provided on the positioning seat 120; the guide push side channel 1203 is connected to the limiting accommodating groove 1201 and is positioned opposite to one end of the clearance channel 1213; the side pressure pre-folding assembly 130 includes a push-pull driver 1310 and a side pressure pre-folding rod 1320, the push-pull driver 1310 is fixedly mounted on the mounting bracket 110; the side pressure pre-folding rod 1320 slides through the guide push side channel 1203 and is fixedly connected to the telescopic rod of the push-pull driver 1310; the side pressure pre-folding rod 1320 is used to pre-fold the pins 301 of the heating mesh 30 on the peripheral side of the ceramic frame 20 when driven by the push-pull driver 1310. It is understandable that, since the side-pressure pre-folding rod 1320 slides through the guide-push side channel 1203, which is connected to the limiting groove 1201, when the push-pull driver 1310 drives the side-pressure pre-folding rod 1320, the side-pressure pre-folding rod 1320 can act on the pins 301 of the heating mesh 30 on the outer periphery of the ceramic frame 20 to pre-fold the pins 301 of the heating mesh 30 on the peripheral side of the ceramic frame 20. At the same time, the guide-push side channel 1203 and the clearance channel 1213 are positioned opposite each other, so that the side-pressure pre-folding rod 1320 can enter the clearance channel 1213. This provides space for the movement of the side-pressure pre-folding rod 1320, thereby reducing interference between the side-pressure pre-folding rod 1320 and the pad block 1210.

[0056] Please refer to the following: Figures 4 to 6 In some embodiments, the ceramic frame blowing limiting mechanism 100 further includes a downward bending assembly 140; a guide channel 1204 is provided on the positioning seat 120; the guide channel 1204 is connected to the limiting groove 1201 and is positioned opposite to the groove 201 of the ceramic frame 20; the downward bending assembly 140 includes a lifting driver 1410 and a downward bending pin 1420; the lifting driver 1410 is fixedly mounted on the mounting bracket 110 and located above the positioning seat 120; the downward bending pin 1420 slides through the guide channel 1204 and is fixedly connected to the lifting rod of the lifting driver 1410; the downward bending pin 1420 is used to bend the pins 301 of the heating mesh 30 and embed them in the lateral groove 202 of the ceramic frame 20 when driven by the lifting driver 1410. It is understandable that, since the downward bending pin 1420 slides through the guide channel 1204, which is connected to the limiting groove 1201, when the lifting driver 1410 drives the downward bending pin 1420, the downward bending pin 1420 can move into the groove 201 of the ceramic frame 20 to bend the pin 301 of the heating grid 30 and embed it in the side groove 202 of the ceramic frame 20.

[0057] Normally, when the ceramic frame 20 of the atomizing module is unloaded by the ceramic frame blowing and limiting mechanism 100, air is blown into the air passage 1202 by a positive pressure blower, thereby blowing the ceramic frame 20 out of the limiting groove 1201. In this way, the ceramic frame 20 will fall directly onto the heating mesh conveyor 210 of the atomizing module assembly frame 200. The fallen ceramic frame 20 accumulates on the heating mesh conveyor 210 and will hinder the movement of the heating mesh conveyor 40 on the heating mesh conveyor 210.

[0058] Please refer to the following: Figures 6 to 8 To address the aforementioned issues, in some embodiments, an air inlet check valve 1510 is provided at the first end of the air passage 1202. The air inlet 1501 of the air inlet check valve 1510 is connected to the air passage 1202, and the air passage 1202 is positioned opposite to the ceramic frame 20 through the air inlet 1501 of the check valve. The pushing end 1321 of the downward bending pin 1420 corresponds to one side of the heating mesh conveyor 210. A blowing air passage 1301 is provided inside the downward bending pin 1420, and the first end of the blowing air passage 1301 is located at the pushing end 1321 of the downward bending pin 1420. 21 forms an air outlet 1303, and the second end of the airflow channel 1301 forms a docking air outlet 1302 on the peripheral wall of the downward bending pin 1420; the positioning seat 120 has a connecting air hole 1205 on the peripheral wall of the guide channel 1204; the connecting air hole 1205 is connected to the second end of the airflow channel 1202, and is opposite to the docking air outlet 1302 after the pushing end 1321 of the downward bending pin 1420 bends the pin 30 of the heating grid 30, or is offset from the docking air outlet 1302 when the downward bending pin 1420 is far away from the ceramic frame 20.

[0059] It is understandable that, since the connecting air hole 1205 is positioned opposite to the docking air port 1302 formed by the second end of the blowing air passage 1301 after the pushing end 1321 of the downward bending pin 1420 bends the pin 30 of the heating mesh 30, the connecting air hole 1205 opened on the peripheral wall of the guide channel 1204 is connected to the second end of the air passage 1202, and the first end of the blowing air passage 1301 forms the blowing port 1303 at the pushing end 1321 of the downward bending pin 1420. At this time, the air passage 1202, the connecting air hole 1205 and the blowing air passage 1301 are connected in sequence. The central control system drives the first solenoid valve to close the suction pipe and drives the second solenoid valve to open the blowing pipe. At this time, the blowing pipe of the positive pressure blower is connected to the second end of the air passage 1202, so that the positive pressure blower blows air into the air passage 1202. Because an air inlet check valve 1510 is provided in the first end of the air passage 1202, the air inlet check valve 1510 prevents air from being blown out from the first end of the air passage 1202. The air then passes through the air passage 1202, the connecting air hole 1205, and the blowing air passage 1301 in sequence, and finally blows out through the blowing port 1303 formed by the pushing end 1321 of the downward bending pin 1420. At the same time, because the pushing end 1321 of the downward bending pin 1420 corresponds to one side of the heating mesh conveyor 210, the blown gas acts on the ceramic frame 20, causing the ceramic frame 20 to fall to the other side of the heating mesh conveyor 210. This reduces the accumulation of fallen ceramic frames 20 on the heating mesh conveyor 210, and ultimately reduces interference with the heating mesh conveyor 40 on the heating mesh conveyor 210. Additionally, when the bent pin 1420 is moved away from the ceramic frame 20, i.e., the bent pin 1420 resets and the fixing seat adsorbs the next ceramic frame 20, the position of the connecting air hole 1205 and the docking air port 1302 is misaligned. At this time, the bent pin 1420 will block the connecting air hole 1205. The central control system drives the first solenoid valve to open the suction pipe and drives the second solenoid valve to close the blowing pipe. At this time, the suction pipe of the negative pressure pump is connected to the second end of the air passage 1202. The air in the air passage 1202 is drawn out by the negative pressure pump. The air at the first end of the air passage 1202 mainly enters through the air inlet one-way valve 1510, thereby forming a negative pressure in the limiting groove 1201 to adsorb the ceramic frame 20.

[0060] Furthermore, when the bent pin 1420 is reset and the fixed seat adsorbs the next ceramic frame 20, the air in the air passage 1202 is drawn out by the negative pressure pump. At this time, the connecting air hole 1205 may also form a negative pressure after being blocked by the bent pin 1420. The negative pressure acting on the bent pin 1420 will create resistance.

[0061] To address the aforementioned issues, in some embodiments, an exhaust check valve is provided within the connecting vent 1205. The exhaust port 1212 of the air passage 1202 is positioned opposite to the downward bending pin 1420. This allows the exhaust check valve to prevent outside air from entering the air passage 1202 when the negative pressure pump draws air from it, thereby reducing the negative pressure generated at the connecting vent 1205. When the positive pressure blower blows air into the air passage 1202, the air can be discharged through the exhaust port 1212 of the exhaust check valve into the docking vent 1302, allowing the blowing port 1303 formed by the push end 1321 to blow out the air normally.

[0062] Typically, due to manufacturing errors in the ceramic frame 20, some ceramic frames 20 may have pits and pores, which can cause gaps between the mating surface 1211 of the padding block 1210 and the inner wall of the groove 201 of the ceramic frame 20. In other words, the mating surface 1211 of the padding block 1210 and the inner wall of the groove 201 of the ceramic frame 20 may not fit tightly together, affecting the adsorption strength of the fixing seat on the ceramic frame 20.

[0063] Please refer to the following: Figure 6 and Figure 7 To solve the above problems, in some embodiments, a flat pad 150 is fixedly provided on the mating surface 1211 of the pad block 1210, and the flat pad 150 covers each air port 1212; part of the flat pad 150 is located in the first end of the air passage 1202 and forms an air inlet one-way valve 1510, and the air passage 1202 is opposite to the ceramic frame 20 through the air inlet 1501 of the air inlet one-way valve 1510. It is understood that by fixing the flat pad 150 onto the mating surface 1211 of the pad block 1210, the mating surface 1211 can be mated to the inner wall of the groove 201 of the ceramic frame 20 through the flat pad 150. As a negative pressure is formed in the air passage 1202, the negative pressure acts on the ceramic frame 20 through the air inlet 1501 of the one-way valve. The ceramic frame 20 will be tightly attached to the flat pad 150. At this time, the flat pad 150 deforms under pressure to fill the pores formed on the ceramic frame 20, further improving the adsorption effect of the fixing seat on the ceramic frame 20.

[0064] Please see Figure 7Furthermore, in some embodiments, the portion of the flat pad 150 extends into the first end of the airway 1202 to form at least two soft valves 1511; the at least two soft valves 1511 are positioned opposite each other and tilted toward the center of the first end of the airway 1202 to form an air intake one-way valve 1510; the movable ends of each soft valve 1511 are close to the center of the first end of the airway 1202 and form the air inlet 1501 of the one-way valve. It is understandable that, since each soft valve 1511 is inclined toward the center of the first end of the airway 1202, the movable ends of each soft valve 1511 approach the center of the first end of the airway 1202 to form the air inlet 1501 of the one-way valve. When the airway 1202 is in a negative pressure intake state, the air at the air inlet 1212 can flow along the inclined direction of each soft valve 1511 to open the air inlet 1501 of the one-way valve and enter the airway 1202. When the airway 1202 is in a positive pressure blowing state, the air in the airway 1202 acts on the movable ends of each soft valve 1511 in the opposite direction of the inclination of each soft valve 1511. The movable ends of each soft valve 1511 approach each other and close the air inlet 1501 of the one-way valve. At this time, the air in the airway 1202 is blown out through the one-way valve, thereby achieving the effect of one-way air intake.

[0065] Please combine them together Figure 1 , Figure 8 This disclosure also provides an atomizing module assembly apparatus 10, including an atomizing module assembly frame 200 and a ceramic frame blowing limiting mechanism 100 of any of the above embodiments; a mounting bracket 110 is mounted on the atomizing module assembly frame 200. It can be understood that by applying the ceramic frame blowing limiting mechanism 100 of this disclosure to the atomizing module assembly apparatus 10, since a limiting groove 1201 is provided on the positioning seat 120, when it is necessary to obtain the ceramic frame 20 of the atomizing module, the ceramic frame 20 can be accommodated first through the limiting groove 1201. Furthermore, since the first end of the air passage 1202 inside the positioning seat 120 is connected to the limiting groove 1201, and the second end of the air passage 1202 inside the positioning seat 120 is connected to the suction end of the negative pressure vacuum pump, air can be drawn from the air passage 1202 by the negative pressure vacuum pump, thereby creating a negative pressure in the limiting groove 1201. This negative pressure can then directly adsorb the ceramic frame 20, ultimately securing the ceramic frame 20 firmly within the limiting groove 1201. Compared to the existing technology's process of pushing the ceramic frame 20 into the receiving groove, the above-described process of using negative pressure to adsorb and fix the ceramic frame 20 causes less damage to the ceramic frame 20, significantly reducing production material loss.

[0066] In some embodiments, the atomizing module assembly device 10 further includes a ceramic rack feeding mechanism for conveying the ceramic rack 20 to the positioning seat 120. In this embodiment, the ceramic rack feeding mechanism is a vibratory feeder, which can screen the ceramic rack 20 to uniformly position it in the assembly-ready state.

[0067] Please combine them together Figure 1 and Figure 2 This disclosure also provides an atomizer manufacturing apparatus, including the atomizer module assembly device 10 of any of the above embodiments. It can be understood that by applying the atomizer module assembly device 10 of this disclosure to an atomizer manufacturing apparatus, since a limiting groove 1201 is provided on the positioning seat 120, when it is necessary to obtain the ceramic frame 20 of the atomizer module, the ceramic frame 20 can be first accommodated through the limiting groove 1201. Furthermore, since the first end of the air passage 1202 inside the positioning seat 120 is connected to the limiting groove 1201, and the second end of the air passage 1202 inside the positioning seat 120 is connected to the suction end of a negative pressure pump, air can be drawn from the air passage 1202 by the negative pressure pump, thereby creating a negative pressure in the limiting groove 1201. This negative pressure can then directly adsorb the ceramic frame 20, ultimately ensuring that the ceramic frame 20 is securely positioned within the limiting groove 1201. Compared to the existing technology of pushing the ceramic holder 20 into the receiving groove, the above-mentioned process of using negative pressure adsorption to fix the ceramic holder 20 causes less damage to the ceramic holder 20 and can greatly reduce production material loss.

[0068] Compared with the prior art, this disclosure has at least the following advantages:

[0069] The aforementioned ceramic frame blowing and limiting mechanism 100, due to the limiting groove 1201 provided on the positioning seat 120, allows the ceramic frame 20 of the atomizing module to be accommodated first through the limiting groove 1201 when it is needed. Furthermore, since the first end of the air passage 1202 inside the positioning seat 120 is connected to the limiting groove 1201, and the second end of the air passage 1202 inside the positioning seat 120 is connected to the suction end of a negative pressure pump, air can be drawn from the air passage 1202 by the negative pressure pump, thereby creating a negative pressure within the limiting groove 1201. This negative pressure directly adsorbs the ceramic frame 20, ultimately securing it firmly within the limiting groove 1201. Compared to the prior art's process of pushing the ceramic frame 20 into the accommodating groove, the aforementioned process of using negative pressure to adsorb and fix the ceramic frame 20 causes less damage to the ceramic frame 20, significantly reducing production losses.

[0070] The embodiments described above are merely illustrative of several implementations of this disclosure, and while the descriptions are specific and detailed, they should not be construed as limiting the scope of the utility model patent. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various modifications and improvements without departing from the concept of this disclosure, and these all fall within the protection scope of this disclosure. Therefore, the protection scope of this patent should be determined by the appended claims.
