[0033] Please see Figures 1-4This application provides a fixing device 100, which includes a support 1, a carrier 2, and a collection assembly 3. Specifically, the carrier 2 is disposed on the support 1 and is provided with a slot 221 and a flow channel 211. The slot 221 is connected to the flow channel 211 and can be inserted into the aerosol generating device 200. The collection assembly 3 includes a collection member 31, which is connected to the carrier 2. Along the direction of gravity X, the collection member 31 is located below the aerosol generating device 200. The collection member 31 is provided with a collection groove 3111 and a connecting port 3121. Both the collection groove 3111 and the connecting port 3121 are connected to the flow channel 211. The connecting port 3121 is used to connect to a suction device, so that the aerosol generating device 200 can generate aerosols by suction. The collection component 31 is provided with a collection tank 3111 that communicates with the flow channel 211. The collection component 31 is located below the aerosol generating device 200, so that the condensate generated during the test flows from the flow channel 211 to the collection tank 3111 under the action of gravity, avoiding the accumulation of condensate in the flow channel 211 and causing blockage, thereby avoiding affecting the absorption resistance value test of the aerosol generating device 200.

[0034] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 3 The flow channel 211 extends along the slot 221 toward the collection tank 3111, making the flow channel 211 a straight channel. Compared with a curved channel, a straight channel is more conducive to the flow of condensate into the collection tank 3111.

[0035] In some embodiments, please refer to Figures 2-4 The end of the vehicle 2 away from the slot 221 is inserted into the collection slot 3111, so that the vehicle 2 is connected to the collection component 31.

[0037] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 2 The fixing device 100 includes a first sealing element 4, which is disposed at the end of the carrier 2 away from the slot 221. The first sealing element 4 abuts against the side wall of the collection tank 3111 so that the first sealing element 4 can seal the side wall of the collection tank 3111 and the end of the carrier 2 away from the slot 221.

[0038] For further details, please refer to Figure 3 The carrier 2 is provided with a receiving groove 212 at the end away from the slot 221.

[0039] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 4The collection component 3 includes a drain element 32. The collection component 31 is provided with a drain port 3131, which is connected to the collection tank 3111. The drain element 32 is disposed at the drain port 3131 and is used to open or close the drain port 3131. Specifically, when the collection component 31 needs to drain, the drain element 32 opens the drain port 3131, and the condensate is discharged outward from the drain port 3131.

[0040] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 4 The sewage discharge component 32 includes a sealing component 321, which is detachably inserted into the sewage discharge port 3131. When the collection component 31 needs to discharge sewage, the user pulls the sealing component 321 out of the sewage discharge port 3131, thereby opening the sewage discharge port 3131. After the sewage discharge is completed, the user inserts the sealing component 321 into the sewage discharge port 3131, thereby closing the sewage discharge port 3131.

[0041] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 4 The sealing component 321 includes a sealing part 3211 and a push-pull part 3212. The sealing part 3211 is detachably inserted into the drain outlet 3131, and the push-pull part 3212 is connected to the sealing part 3211. The push-pull part 3212 is used to facilitate the user to push and pull the sealing component 321.

[0042] It is understood that in some embodiments, the drain component 32 includes a valve disposed at the drain outlet 3131, and the drain outlet 3131 is opened or closed by opening or closing the valve.

[0043] In some embodiments, the collection element 31 is transparent so that the user can observe the amount of condensate in the collection tank 3111, thereby helping the user to determine whether the drain outlet 3131 needs to be opened.

[0044] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 4 The collection component 31 includes a collection body 311, a first connector 312, and a second connector 313. The collection trough 3111 is provided with the collection body 311. The collection body 311 is provided with a first opening 3112 and a second opening 3113. The first opening 3112 is provided on the side of the collection body 311. The first connector 312 is provided in the first opening 3112. The connecting port 3121 is provided in the first connector 312. The second opening 3113 is provided at the bottom of the collection trough 3111. The second connector 313 is provided in the second opening 3113. The drain port 3131 is provided in the second connector 313.

[0045] In some embodiments, the collecting body 311 is made of a transparent material such as transparent glass or transparent plastic, making the collecting body 311 transparent. In other embodiments, the first connector 312 and the second connector 313 are also made of a transparent material such as transparent glass or transparent plastic, making the collecting component 31 entirely transparent.

[0046] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 3 The carrier 2 includes a carrier 21 and a second seal 22. The carrier 21 is disposed on the support 1 and connected to the collection member 31. The carrier 21 is provided with a receiving groove 213. A flow channel 211 and a receiving groove 212 are both disposed on the carrier 21. The second seal 22 is disposed on the receiving groove 213 and a slot 221 is disposed on the second seal 22. The second seal 22 is used to form a seal between the carrier 21 and the nozzle of the aerosol generating device 200.

[0047] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 The fixing device 100 includes a clamping member 5, which is disposed on the bracket 1. The clamping member 5 is provided with a clamping groove 51, which allows the aerosol generating device 200 to be inserted, thereby fixing the aerosol generating device 200 during the test.

[0048] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 The fixing device 100 includes a pusher 6 and a drive 7. The drive 7 is disposed on the bracket 1, and the pusher 6 is connected to the drive 7. The drive 7 is used to move the pusher 6 so that the pusher 6 can push the aerosol generating device 200 into the slot 221. Specifically, when the aerosol generating device 200 is placed in the clamping groove 51, the drive 7 drives the pusher 6 to move along the gravity direction X so that the pusher 6 pushes the aerosol generating device 200 into the slot 221. After the aerosol generating device 200 is inserted into place, the drive 7 drives the pusher 6 to move in the opposite direction to the gravity direction X to reset.

[0049] As an example, drive unit 7 is a linear module.
