Description

Electronic atomizing device Technical Field

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

[0002] Tobacco products (such as cigarettes, cigars, etc.) produce tobacco smoke by burning tobacco during use. Efforts are being made to replace these tobacco-burning products by creating products that release compounds without combustion.

[0003] Examples of such products are heating devices that release compounds by heating rather than burning materials. For example, the material may be tobacco or other non-tobacco products, which may or may not contain nicotine. As another example, aerosol-providing articles exist, such as so-called electronic atomizing devices. These devices typically contain a liquid that is heated to vaporize, thereby producing an inhalable aerosol. The liquid may contain nicotine and / or flavorings and / or aerosol-generating substances (e.g., glycerin). The applicant has proposed an electronic atomizing device with two atomizers arranged opposite each other in Chinese patent CN210581021 U. The two atomizers are rotatably arranged within the power supply section of the electronic atomizing device, allowing the user to rotate either atomizer to face proximity for inhalation via a rotational operation. Summary of the Invention

[0004] One embodiment of this application provides an electronic atomizing device, which includes a main housing, an atomizing body, and a first limiting mechanism. The main housing has a proximal end and a distal end disposed opposite to each other in a longitudinal direction. The atomizing body is disposed within the main housing and configured to atomize a liquid matrix to generate an aerosol. The atomizing body has a first end and a second end disposed opposite to each other. The atomizing body is rotatable within the main housing about a first axis along the width direction of the electronic atomizing device to selectively change the atomizing body between a first orientation and a second orientation. When the atomizing body is in the first orientation, the first end is positioned towards the proximal end; when the atomizing body is in the second orientation... When the atomizing body is positioned, the second end is positioned towards the proximal end; the first limiting mechanism is used to limit the rotation of the atomizing body; the first limiting mechanism includes a pin and a limiting groove, the pin being arranged on one of the main housing and the atomizing body; the limiting groove being arranged on the other of the main housing and the atomizing body; the pin has a pin shaft portion extending in the width direction, a first shaft being defined by the pin shaft portion; the pin also has a limiting latching protrusion that is separated from or partitioned from the pin shaft portion; when the atomizing body is in the first orientation and / or the second orientation, the limiting latching protrusion is received into the limiting groove to provide limiting, thereby holding the atomizing body in the first orientation and / or the second orientation.

[0005] In some embodiments, the limiting protrusion is elastic and thus compressible; the limiting groove is defined between two spaced ridges, and the limiting protrusion is at least partially squeezed or compressed by the ridges when it moves to contact the ridges.

[0006] In some embodiments, when the limiting protrusion extends into the limiting groove via the ridge, it releases or relieves the squeezing or compression by the ridge.

[0007] In some embodiments, the limiting protrusion includes a base and a protrusion protruding from the base on a side away from the pin portion. The protrusion has an abutting surface that is further away from the pin portion relative to the base. When the protrusion moves to contact the ridge protrusion, the abutting surface abuts against the ridge protrusion, so that the limiting protrusion is squeezed or compressed by the ridge protrusion.

[0008] In some embodiments, the abutting surface includes two inclined surfaces extending away from the base and a connecting surface for connecting the two inclined surfaces. When the locking protrusion extends into the limiting groove via the ridge, the squeezing or compression of the limiting locking protrusion is released or relieved, and the inclined surfaces abut against the sidewalls of the limiting groove, and the connecting surface abuts against the bottom wall of the limiting groove, so that the locking protrusion is received into the limiting groove to provide limiting, thereby keeping the atomizing body in the first orientation and / or the second orientation.

[0009] In some embodiments, the opening size of the limiting groove gradually increases in the direction from the bottom wall of the limiting groove to the opening of the limiting groove, and the shape of the locking protrusion corresponds to and matches the shape of the limiting groove.

[0010] In some embodiments, when viewed along the width direction, the shape of the card protrusion and the limiting groove is trapezoidal.

[0011] In some embodiments, a pin is arranged on the main housing, and a limiting groove is arranged on the atomizing body; the atomizing body is also provided with a plug hole, and the pin shaft is inserted into or extends into the plug hole; the plug hole avoids the limiting groove.

[0012] In some embodiments, a pin is arranged on the main housing and a limiting groove is arranged on the atomizing body; a first connecting portion is also arranged on the pin and a second connecting portion is arranged on the main housing; the first connecting portion and the second connecting portion are connected to securely connect the pin and the main housing.

[0013] In some embodiments, the electronic atomizing device further includes a second limiting mechanism, which, together with the first limiting mechanism, provides a restriction on the rotation of the atomizing body, thereby holding the atomizing body in a first orientation and / or a second orientation; the second limiting mechanism includes a protrusion with an arcuate surface and a slot, the protrusion with the arcuate surface being disposed at a first end and a second end of the atomizing body; the slot being disposed on the main housing; when the atomizing body is in the first orientation and / or the second orientation, the protrusion is received into the slot to provide a limiting effect.

[0014] Compared with the prior art, the electronic atomizing device provided in this application includes a main housing, an atomizing body, and a first limiting mechanism. The main housing has a proximal end and a distal end arranged opposite to each other in the longitudinal direction. The atomizing body is disposed within the main housing and configured to atomize a liquid matrix to generate an aerosol. The atomizing body has a first end and a second end arranged opposite to each other. The atomizing body can rotate within the main housing about a first axis in the width direction of the electronic atomizing device to selectively change the atomizing body between a first orientation and a second orientation. When the atomizing body is in the first orientation, the first end is positioned towards the proximal end. When the atomizing body is in the second orientation, the second end is positioned towards the proximal end. The first limiting mechanism is used to limit the rotation of the atomizing body. The first limiting mechanism includes a pin and a limiting groove. The pin is disposed on one of the main housing and the atomizing body. The limiting groove is disposed on the other of the main housing and the atomizing body. The pin has a pin shaft portion extending in the width direction, and the first axis is defined by the pin shaft portion. The pin also has a limiting protrusion that is separated from or partitioned from the pin shaft portion. Through the above embodiments, when the atomizing body is in the first orientation and / or the second orientation, the limiting protrusion is received into the limiting groove to provide a limit, thereby keeping the atomizing body in the first orientation and / or the second orientation, and thus the stability of the atomizing body in the first orientation and the second orientation can be improved by the first limiting mechanism.

[0035] In some embodiments, the electronic atomizing device 1 includes a first body 400 and a second body 500; the second body 500 is installed within the first body 400.

[0036] In some embodiments, the first body 400 and the second body 500 exist independently of each other before assembly; and after the first body 400 is combined with the second body 500, they together define the complete electronic atomizing device 1 for use by a user or for inhaling aerosol.

[0037] In some embodiments, the second body 500 is an atomizing body for atomizing a liquid matrix to generate an aerosol; the first body 400 is used to mount or hold the second body 500 and is operated by a user to selectively control the atomizer in the second body 500 to generate an aerosol. In some embodiments, the first body 400 and the second body 500 exist before assembly or independently; the second body 500 can generate an aerosol independently for user use or inhalation, while the first body 400 cannot generate an aerosol independently for user use or inhalation.

[0038] In some embodiments, after the first body 400 and the second body 500 are assembled, the second body 500 can be completely removed from or replaced from the first body 400. Alternatively, in other embodiments, after the first body 400 and the second body 500 are assembled, the second body 500 cannot be disassembled from or replaced from the first body 400; and when the liquid matrix within the second body 500 is consumed, it is recycled or discarded as a whole.

[0039] In some embodiments, the first body 400 includes:

[0040] The first body 400 comprises a proximal end 410 and a distal end 420 facing away from each other in the longitudinal direction; a first side 430 and a second side 440 facing away from each other in the width direction; and a front side 450 and a rear side 460 facing away from each other in the thickness direction. In use, the proximal end 410 is the end closer to the user for easy suction; the distal end 420 is the end farther from the user. In some embodiments, the first body 400 may be flat. The length dimension of the first body 400 is greater than its width dimension, and the width dimension is greater than its thickness dimension.

[0041] In some embodiments, the first body 400 includes:

[0042] A suction nozzle 40 and a main housing 30 are arranged longitudinally in sequence; the suction nozzle 40 is adjacent to and defines a proximal end 410, and the main housing 30 is adjacent to and defines a distal end 420. In some embodiments, the main housing 30 and / or the suction nozzle 40 may be formed of a metal or alloy such as stainless steel or aluminum; other suitable materials include various plastics, metal-plated plastics, ceramics, etc.

[0043] The main housing 30 is generally configured as a longitudinally extending frame or truss. A longitudinally extending receiving cavity 31 is formed or defined within the main housing 30; the second body 500 can be received and held within the receiving cavity 31. The receiving cavity 31 extends from the front side 450 to the rear side 460. In an embodiment, the receiving cavity 31 is open at both the front side 450 and the rear side 460.

[0044] The user can operate the second body 500 from the front side 450 and / or the rear side 460, for example, by pressing, thereby driving the second body 500 to rotate or flip about a first axis defined by the pin portion 511 along the width direction of the electronic atomizing device 1, as shown by arrow P11 in FIG1. ​​In some embodiments, when the second body 500 rotates to coincide with the longitudinal direction of the first body 400, at least one aerosol outlet of the second body 500 is connected to the air outlet 41 of the mouthpiece 40, thereby defining the usage state of the electronic atomizing device 1. When the second body 500 rotates to have an inclined angle with the longitudinal direction of the first body 400, the connection between at least one air outlet of the second body 500 and the air outlet 41 of the mouthpiece 40 is disconnected. Furthermore, when the second body 500 rotates to have an inclined angle with the longitudinal direction of the first body 400, at least part of the first end 510 and / or the second end 520 of the second body 500 can extend beyond the front side 450 and / or the rear side 460.

[0045] The electronic atomizing device 1 also includes a first limiting mechanism 50, which limits the rotation of the second body 500. The first limiting mechanism 50 includes a pin 51 and a limiting groove 52. The pin 51 is disposed on one of the first body 400 and the second body 500. The limiting groove 52 is disposed on the other of the first body 400 and the second body 500. The pin 51 has a pin shaft portion 511 extending in the width direction, and a first shaft is defined by the pin shaft portion 511. The pin 51 also has a limiting latching protrusion 512 that is separate from or separated from the pin shaft portion 511. When the second body 500 is in a first orientation and / or a second orientation, the limiting latching protrusion 512 is received into the limiting groove 52 to provide limiting, thereby holding the second body 500 in the first orientation and / or the second orientation.

[0046] For example, there may be two pins 51. One pin 51 can pass through one side of the width direction of the first body 400 into the receiving cavity 31 and at least partially extend into the second body 500 and connect with the second body 500; the other pin 51 can pass through the other side of the width direction of the first body 400 into the receiving cavity 31 and at least partially extend into the second body 500 and connect with the second body 500.

[0047] Understandably, pin 51 provides a rotatable connection between the second body 500 and the first body 400. Therefore, in this embodiment, the second body 500 can rotate within the main housing 30 about a first axis defined by the pin portion 511 of pin 51 along the width direction of the electronic atomizing device 1. Furthermore, in some applications, pin 51 is riveted or tightly fitted to the main housing 30 of the first body 400, and pin 51 is not removable from the main housing 30. Thus, after assembly, pin 51 keeps the second body 500 connected to the first body 400, preventing the power supply mechanism of the second body 500 from being detached from the first body 400.

[0048] In some embodiments, the second body 500 includes a housing that defines the outer surface of the second body 500; the housing has a insertion hole 60 opened along the width direction of the electronic atomizing device 1, a pin 51 is arranged on the main housing 30, a limiting groove 52 is arranged on the second body 500, the insertion hole 60 is for the pin 51 to be inserted or extended for connection, and the insertion hole 60 avoids the limiting groove 52, the number of insertion holes 60 is matched with the number of pins 51. For example, the number of pins 51 can be two, and the number of insertion holes 60 can also be two. One insertion hole 60 is correspondingly arranged with one pin 51. The two insertion holes 60 can be respectively arranged on opposite sides of the housing in the width direction. When the second body 500 is installed or accommodated in the receiving cavity 31 of the first body 400, each of the two insertion holes 60 is for its corresponding pin 51 to be inserted or extended along the width direction so that the pin 51 keeps the second body 500 connected to the first body 400. The pin portion 511 of the pin 51 is inserted into or extends into the insertion hole 60, thereby establishing a rotatable connection between the second body 500 and the first body 400. The insertion hole 60 is positioned to avoid the limiting groove 52. This means that when the pin portion 511 of the pin 51 is inserted into the insertion hole 60, the pin portion 511 can avoid the limiting groove 52, thus preventing interference between the pin portion 511 and the limiting groove 52.

[0049] When the second body 500 rotates to a first orientation and / or a second orientation that coincides with the longitudinal direction of the first body 400, the limiting protrusion 512 is received into the limiting groove 52 to provide a limit, thereby keeping the second body 500 in the first orientation and / or the second orientation that coincides with the longitudinal direction of the first body 400.

[0050] In some embodiments, the pin 51 may be arranged on the main housing 30 of the first body 400, and the limiting groove 52 may be disposed on the second body 500. The number of limiting grooves 52 may be one, two or more, and the number of limiting protrusions 512 may match the limiting grooves 52. For example, taking two limiting grooves 52 and two limiting protrusions 512 as an example, the two limiting grooves 52 are respectively defined as the first limiting groove 52 and the second limiting groove 52, and the two limiting protrusions 512 are respectively defined as the first limiting protrusion 512 and the second limiting protrusion 512. When the second body 500 rotates to the position of the first... When the longitudinal direction of the main body 400 coincides and the first end 510 faces the proximal end 410, the first limiting protrusion 512 can be received into the first limiting groove 52 to provide a limit, and the second limiting protrusion 512 can be received into the second limiting groove 52 to provide a limit, thereby holding the second main body 500 in the first orientation; when the second main body 500 rotates to coincide with the longitudinal direction of the first main body 400 and the second end 520 is close to the proximal end 410, the first limiting protrusion 512 can be received into the second limiting groove 52 to provide a limit, and the second limiting protrusion 512 can be received into the first limiting groove 52 to provide a limit, thereby holding the second main body 500 in the second orientation.

[0051] Through the above embodiments, when the second body 500 is in the first orientation and / or the second orientation, the limiting protrusion 512 is received into the limiting groove 52 to provide a limit, thereby keeping the second body 500 in the first orientation and / or the second orientation, and thus the stability of the first body 400 in the first orientation and the second orientation can be improved by the first limiting mechanism 50.

[0052] In some embodiments, the retaining protrusion 512 is elastic, and thus compressible; the retaining groove 52 is defined between two spaced ridges 521, and the retaining protrusion 512 is at least partially squeezed or compressed by the ridges 521 when it moves to contact the ridges 521. Exemplarily, the two ridges 521 may be spaced apart in the circumferential direction of the first axis to define the retaining groove 52. It is understood that during the rotation of the second body 500 within the main housing 30 about the first axis defined along the pin portion 511, the retaining groove 52 also moves about the first axis relative to the retaining protrusion 512. When the retaining protrusion 512 moves to contact the ridges 521, at least a portion of the retaining protrusion 512 is squeezed or compressed by the ridges 521 toward the pin portion 511, thereby generating resistance that prevents the second body 500 from continuing to rotate through the cooperation of the ridges 521 and the retaining protrusion 512.

[0053] In some embodiments, when the limiting protrusion 512 extends into the limiting groove 52 via the ridge protrusion 521, it releases or relieves the squeezing or compression by the ridge protrusion 521. It is understood that after the squeezing or compression of the limiting protrusion 512 by the ridge protrusion 521 is released or relieved, the resistance generated by the cooperation of the ridge protrusion 521 and the limiting protrusion 512 that hinders the continued rotation of the second body 500 is weakened or disappears. This provides the user with a tactile indication that the second body 500 has been rotated to the first orientation or the second orientation, thus facilitating the user's better judgment of the rotation state of the second body 500. Furthermore, when the limiting protrusion 512 extends into the limiting groove 52 via the ridge protrusion 521, the limiting protrusion 512 is located between the two ridge protrusions 521. The two ridge protrusions 521 can respectively prevent the second body 500 from continuing to rotate in two opposite directions, thereby facilitating the stable reception of the limiting protrusion 512 within the limiting groove 52 to provide limiting, thus maintaining the second body 500 in the first orientation and / or the second orientation. In some applications, there can be multiple ridge protrusions 521, thereby forming multiple limiting grooves 52. Specifically, there can be four ridge protrusions 521, defining two limiting grooves 52, where a pair of adjacent ridge protrusions 521 cooperate to define one limiting groove 52, and another pair of adjacent ridge protrusions 521 cooperate to define another limiting groove 52. Optionally, the two limiting grooves 52 are arranged opposite each other in the radial direction of the pin portion 511.

[0054] In some embodiments, the limiting protrusion 512 includes a base 5121 and a protrusion 5122 protruding from the surface of the base 5121 away from the pin portion 511. The protrusion 5122 has an abutting surface 5123 that is further away from the pin portion 511 relative to the base 5121. When the protrusion 5122 moves to contact the ridge protrusion 521, the abutting surface 5123 abuts against the ridge protrusion 521, so that the limiting protrusion 512 is squeezed or compressed by the ridge protrusion 521. It should be noted that when the locking protrusion 5122 moves to contact the ridge protrusion 521, the abutting surface 5123 is closer to the ridge protrusion 521 than the side surface of the base 5121 that is away from the pin shaft portion 511. This makes it easier for the locking protrusion 5122 to abut against the ridge protrusion 521 through the abutting surface 5123, so that the ridge protrusion 521 can squeeze or compress the locking protrusion 5122 through the abutting surface 5123, thereby causing the base 5121 and the locking protrusion 5122 to deform synchronously in the direction closer to the pin shaft portion 511. Therefore, the ridge protrusion 521 can more fully squeeze or compress the limiting protrusion 512 through the abutting surface 5123, which is closer to the limiting groove 52 than the base 5121. This increases the resistance generated by the cooperation between the ridge protrusion 521 and the limiting protrusion 512, preventing the second body 500 from continuing to rotate, and better keeps the second body 500 in the first orientation and / or the second orientation, while providing the user with more obvious tactile feedback.

[0055] In some embodiments, the abutment surface 5123 includes two inclined surfaces 5124 extending away from the base 5121 and a connecting surface 5125 for connecting the two inclined surfaces 5124. When the locking protrusion 5122 extends into the limiting groove 52 via the ridge protrusion 521, the squeezing or compression of the limiting locking protrusion 512 is released or relieved, and the inclined surfaces 5124 abut against the sidewall of the limiting groove 52, and the connecting surface 5125 abuts against the bottom wall of the limiting groove 52, so that the locking protrusion 5122 is received into the limiting groove 52 to provide limiting, thereby holding the second body 500 in the first orientation and / or the second orientation. The inclined surfaces 5124 may be inclined relative to the side surface of the base 5121 opposite to the pin portion 511. When the locking protrusion 5122 extends into the limiting groove 52 via the ridge protrusion 521, the two inclined surfaces 5124 can abut against the sidewall of the limiting groove 52. The sidewall of the limiting groove 52 is the wall surface that defines the two opposing ridge protrusions 521 of the limiting groove 52. It can be understood that the sidewall of the limiting groove 52 abuts against the inclined surface 5124, and the bottom wall abuts against the connecting surface 5125. Thus, the sidewall and bottom wall of the limiting groove 52 can provide resistance to the locking protrusion 5122, preventing the locking protrusion 5122 from leaving the limiting groove 52. This prevents the second body 500 from continuing to rotate around the first axis, thereby better maintaining the second body 500 in the first orientation and / or the second orientation. At the same time, it can provide the user with a clearer tactile indication that the second body 500 has been rotated to the first orientation or the second orientation, making it easier for the user to judge the rotation state of the second body 500.

[0056] In some embodiments, the opening size of the limiting groove 52 gradually increases in the direction from the bottom wall of the limiting groove 52 to the opening of the limiting groove 52, and the shape of the locking protrusion 5122 corresponds to and matches the shape of the limiting groove 52. It should be noted that by gradually increasing the opening size of the limiting groove 52 in the direction from the bottom wall of the limiting groove 52 to the opening, it is beneficial for the locking protrusion 5122 to be more smoothly received into the limiting groove 52 during the process of extending into the limiting groove 52 via the ridge protrusion 521, and to release or relieve the squeezing or compression by the ridge protrusion 521, so that the second body 500 can be more easily flipped to the first orientation and / or the second orientation and maintained in the first orientation and / or the second orientation.

[0057] In some embodiments, when viewed along the width direction, the shapes of the latching protrusion 5122 and the limiting groove 52 are trapezoidal. Exemplarily, the bottom wall of the limiting groove 52 can be considered as the shorter upper base of the trapezoid, and the two side walls of the limiting groove 52 can be considered as the waists of the trapezoid. Similarly, the connecting surface 5125 of the abutment surface 5123 can be considered as the shorter upper base of the trapezoid. This further facilitates the latching protrusion 5122 being more smoothly received into the limiting groove 52 during its insertion into the limiting groove 52 via the ridge protrusion 521, and releases or relieves the pressure or compression from the ridge protrusion 521, making it easier for the second body 500 to flip to the first orientation and / or the second orientation and remain in the first orientation and / or the second orientation.

[0058] Please refer to Figures 7 and 8. Figure 7 is a second cross-sectional view of an electronic atomizing device according to one or more embodiments of this application; Figure 8 is a third cross-sectional view of an electronic atomizing device according to one or more embodiments of this application.

[0059] In some embodiments, a pin 51 is disposed on the main housing 30, and a limiting groove 52 is disposed on the second body 500; a first connecting portion 53 is also disposed on the pin 51, and a second connecting portion 32 is disposed on the main housing 30; the first connecting portion 53 and the second connecting portion 32 are connected to securely connect the pin 51 and the main housing 30. Exemplarily, one of the first connecting portion 53 and the second connecting portion 32 can be a hook, and the other can be a locking hole; the hook is engaged in the locking hole, thereby securingly connecting the pin 51 and the main housing 30. Optionally, the first connecting part 53 is a hook, and the second connecting part 32 is a locking hole. The hook has a hook portion, the size of which is larger than the opening size of the locking hole. The hook portion may be elastic, and thus can be squeezed or compressed, so that during the insertion or extension of the hook into the locking hole, the hook portion is squeezed or compressed by the locking hole, and after the hook portion passes through the locking hole, the squeezing or compression by the locking hole is released or relieved, thereby preventing the hook portion from exiting the locking hole, and thus fastening the pin 51 and the main housing 30. In some application scenarios, the pin 51 is also provided with a positioning part 54, and the main housing 30 is provided with a positioning hole 33. The positioning part 54 extends into the positioning hole so that the pin 51 and the main housing 30 are correctly assembled.

[0060] In some embodiments, the electronic atomizing device 1 further includes a second limiting mechanism 70, which, together with the first limiting mechanism 50, provides restriction on the rotation of the second body 500, thereby holding the second body 500 in a first orientation and / or a second orientation. The second limiting mechanism 70 includes a protrusion 71 with an arcuate surface and a slot 72. The protrusion 71 with the arcuate surface is disposed at a first end 510 and a second end 520 of the second body 500. The slot 72 is disposed on the main housing 30. When the second body 500 is in the first orientation and / or the second orientation, the protrusion 71 is received into the slot 72 to provide limitation. Exemplarily, the number of protrusions 71 can be multiple, with some protrusions 71 disposed at the first end 510 of the second body 500 and the remaining protrusions 71 disposed at the second end 520 of the second body 500. The slot 72 can be disposed on the inner surface of the receiving cavity 31 near or toward the proximal end 410 and / or the distal end 420. In some applications, the slot 72 is arranged on the inner surface of the receiving cavity 31 near or toward the proximal end 410 and the distal end 420. When the second body 500 rotates to coincide with the longitudinal direction of the first body 400 and the first end 510 faces the proximal end 410, the protrusion 71 on the first end 510 extends into the slot 72 on the inner surface of the receiving cavity 31 near or toward the proximal end 410, and the protrusion 71 on the second end 520 extends into the slot 72 on the inner surface of the receiving cavity 31 near or toward the distal end 420. When the second body 500 rotates to coincide with the longitudinal direction of the first body 400 and the second end 520 faces the proximal end 410, the protrusion 71 on the second end 520 extends into the slot 72 on the inner surface of the receiving cavity 31 near or toward the proximal end 410, and the protrusion 71 on the first end 510 extends into the slot 72 on the inner surface of the receiving cavity 31 near or toward the distal end 420. Thus, by having the second limiting mechanism 70 and the first limiting mechanism 50 together restrict the rotation of the second body 500, the second body 500 is kept in the first orientation and / or the second orientation, thereby further improving the stability of the second body 500 in the first orientation and / or the second orientation state.
