Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the field of aerosol generation technology, and in particular to an atomizer, atomizing module and aerosol generation device. Background Technology
[0002] An aerosol generating device is an apparatus capable of atomizing a liquid matrix to generate an aerosol. An exemplary aerosol generating device exists, comprising an atomizing assembly with multiple atomizers. Each atomizer includes a sealing plug, an atomizing core, and a liquid cup with an internal storage chamber for storing the liquid matrix. The atomizing core atomizes the liquid matrix to generate an aerosol. After the liquid matrix is injected into the storage chamber, the sealing plug is then inseparably connected to the liquid to seal the storage chamber.
[0003] However, due to the limited size of the aerosol generating device and the large space required for the liquid cups of multiple atomizers, the storage chamber of each atomizer has a very small volume, resulting in a short lifespan for each atomizer. This leads to a poor user experience and high operating costs for the aerosol generating device. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this application is to provide an atomizer, an atomizing module, and an aerosol generating device, which can replenish liquid matrix into multiple first storage chambers in the atomizer through multiple liquid inlets, thereby extending the service life of the atomizer.
[0005] At least one embodiment of this application provides an atomizer for use in combination with a memory to receive a liquid matrix provided by the memory; the atomizer includes;
[0006] A first housing has a proximal end and a distal end; the first housing includes a first partition that divides the internal space of the first housing into a plurality of first storage cavities for storing a liquid matrix, the plurality of first storage cavities being arranged around the central axis of the atomizer to form a ring structure;
[0007] Multiple atomizing cores are arranged one-to-one in the first storage cavity to atomize the liquid matrix in the corresponding first storage cavity to generate aerosol;
[0008] The device has multiple aerosol output ports and multiple liquid input ports at its proximal end. Each aerosol output port is in fluid communication with the corresponding atomizing core for outputting aerosol. At least one liquid input port is located adjacent to the aerosol output port and is in communication with the corresponding first storage cavity, thereby introducing a liquid matrix into the first storage cavity.
[0009] As an example, multiple aerosol outlets or multiple liquid inlets are distributed on a circular trajectory centered on the central axis of the atomizer.
[0010] As an example, the first partition includes a first central tube and a plurality of first partition plates extending radially from the first central tube, with adjacent first storage cavities spaced apart from each other by the first partition plates.
[0011] As an example, the system also includes a plurality of bases connected to the distal end of the first housing, each base being configured corresponding to one of the first storage cavities, and each base having a defined air guide hole communicating with the corresponding atomizing core, wherein an atomizing channel is established between the air guide hole and the corresponding aerosol output port to provide airflow through the atomizing core.
[0012] As an example, the base defines a portion of the boundary of the corresponding first storage cavity, and the base includes a first base and a first seal disposed on the first base, the first seal being used to provide a seal between the first base and the first housing, and to provide a seal between the first base and the first partition.
[0013] As an example, the first bases of the plurality of said bases are arranged in a ring, and the plurality of first bases are integrally formed.

[0016] As an example, the first top wall is provided with an insertion portion extending longitudinally away from the first storage cavity, and the first top wall includes a support portion located around the insertion portion and connected to the first annular wall;
[0017] The insertion part is used to insert into the interior of the memory, and the support part is used to support the memory in the longitudinal direction.
[0018] As an example, each of the first storage cavities is connected to a first liquid inlet and a second liquid inlet, which are located on opposite sides of the aerosol outlet.
[0019] At least one embodiment of this application provides an atomizing module, which includes the atomizer and a memory connected to the atomizer. The memory includes a second storage chamber for storing a liquid matrix. When the atomizer is connected to the memory, the memory replenishes the liquid matrix to the atomizer through at least one of the liquid inlets.
[0020] As an example, the memory has a plurality of second storage chambers. When the atomizer is connected to the memory, the plurality of first storage chambers and the plurality of second storage chambers are arranged in a one-to-one correspondence, so that different second storage chambers replenish the liquid matrix to the corresponding first storage chambers through different liquid inlets.
[0021] As an example, the liquid matrix stored in the second storage cavity and the corresponding first storage cavity is the same;
[0022] The memory is provided with a foolproof part, and the atomizer is provided with a foolproof mating part for interfering with the foolproof part, so that the second storage chamber and the first storage chamber, which store the same liquid matrix, are correspondingly arranged.
[0023] As an example, the memory includes a second housing with a second partition that divides the interior space of the second housing into a plurality of second storage cavities for storing a liquid matrix, the plurality of second storage cavities being arranged around the central axis of the second housing.
[0024] At least one embodiment of this application provides an aerosol generating device, which includes the aforementioned atomizing module and a power supply, wherein the power supply is configured to provide electrical power to the atomizing module to cause one or more atomizing cores to atomize a corresponding liquid matrix to generate an aerosol.
[0025] In the atomizer, atomizing module, and aerosol generating device provided in the above embodiments, the atomizer includes a first housing with a first partition and multiple atomizing cores. The first partition divides the internal space of the first housing into multiple first storage chambers for storing a liquid matrix. The multiple atomizing cores are correspondingly disposed in the first storage chambers to atomize the liquid matrix in the corresponding first storage chamber to generate an aerosol. The first housing also has multiple aerosol outlets and multiple liquid inlets. Each aerosol outlet is in fluid communication with the corresponding atomizing core for outputting aerosol. At least one liquid inlet is disposed adjacent to the aerosol outlet and communicates with the corresponding first storage chamber to introduce the liquid matrix into the first storage chamber. Thus, liquid matrix can be replenished into the corresponding first storage chamber through the liquid inlet, thereby extending the atomizer's service life and reducing its operating costs.

[0049] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 This application provides an aerosol generating device 100, which includes an atomizing module 110. The atomizing module 110 includes a memory 1 for storing a liquid matrix and an atomizer 2 for atomizing the liquid matrix. The memory 1 and the atomizer 2 can be manufactured independently and stored separately. When the memory 1 and the atomizer 2 are combined, a fluid channel can be established between them, so that the liquid matrix stored in the memory 1 can be transferred to the atomizer 2 and then atomized by the atomizer 2 to generate an aerosol.
[0050] In some embodiments, the liquid matrix is liquid at room temperature. The liquid matrix may contain a liquid containing tobacco-containing substances with volatile tobacco aroma components. The liquid matrix may also contain a liquid containing non-tobacco substances. The liquid matrix may contain water, solvents, ethanol, plant extracts, fragrances, flavorings, or vitamin mixtures, etc. Fragrances may include, but are not limited to, areca nut extract, menthol, peppermint, spearmint oil, various fruit flavoring components, etc. Flavorings may contain ingredients that can provide the user with various aromas or flavors. Vitamin mixtures may be mixtures containing at least one of vitamin A, vitamin B, vitamin C, and vitamin E, but are not limited to.
[0051] In some embodiments, reference may be made to Figures 1-3 The aerosol generating device 100 also includes a power supply 120 configured to provide electrical power to the atomizing module 110 so that the atomizer 2 in the atomizing module 110 atomizes the liquid matrix to generate aerosol.
[0052] The power supply 120 may include any suitable power source 1201, such as a lithium battery, a disposable battery, or a rechargeable battery, which can provide electrical power to the atomizing module 1. The power supply 120 may include a power bank 1201, for example, the power supply 120 may include a power bank, which can charge the power supply 1201, or the power supply can replace the power supply 1201 to provide electrical power to the atomizing module 110 to atomize the liquid matrix.
[0053] In some embodiments, reference may be made to Figure 2 The power supply 120 also includes a housing 1202, in which the power supply 1201 is housed, and the housing 1202 also has a housing space 1203 for accommodating at least a portion of the atomizing module 110. When at least a portion of the atomizing module 110 is housed in the housing space 1203, the atomizing module 110 can be electrically connected to the power supply 1201.
[0054] In some embodiments, the atomizing module 110 is detachably connected to the power supply 120, thereby allowing the atomizing module 110 and the power supply 120 to be connected or separated, so as to replace the atomizing module 110 or the power supply 120. It also facilitates the recycling of the power supply 1201 in the power supply 120.
[0055] Furthermore, the outer casing 1202 is generally a longitudinally extending tubular structure. When at least a portion of the atomizing module 110 is accommodated in the accommodating space 1203, the atomizing module 110 and the power supply 1201 are arranged longitudinally, and the outer casing 1202 is provided with an assembly port communicating with the accommodating space. At least a portion of the atomizing component 110 can be assembled into or removed from the accommodating space 1203 through this assembly port. Preferably, the assembly port is located at the end of the outer casing 1202 opposite to the power supply 1201.
[0056] In some embodiments, reference may be made to Figures 1-3 The aerosol generating device 100 also includes a nozzle assembly 130, which has an air intake 1301 communicating with the atomizing module 110. At least a portion of the nozzle assembly 130 can be held in the lips by a user. When the user holds the nozzle assembly 130 in their mouth, the air intake 1301 faces the user's oral cavity, so that the user can draw in the aerosol generated by the atomizing module 110 by sucking the nozzle assembly 130.
[0057] Furthermore, the nozzle assembly 130 is removably connected to the power supply 120, and the atomizing module 11 and the nozzle assembly 130 are arranged longitudinally. Even further, the end of the housing 1202 facing away from the power supply 1201 is connected to the nozzle assembly 130, thereby allowing the atomizing module 110 to be disposed between the nozzle assembly 130 and the power supply 1201. The nozzle assembly 130 is also removably connected to the power supply 120. After the nozzle assembly 130 is removed from the power supply 120, the assembly port communicating with the receiving space 1203 opens, allowing the atomizing module 110 to be removed from the power supply 120 or installed into the receiving space 1203.
[0058] In some embodiments, the memory 1 includes a suction nozzle assembly 130, which is connected to the memory 1 such that the suction nozzle assembly 130 and the memory are assembled as a single unit, allowing the memory 1 and the suction nozzle assembly 130 to be connected as a whole to the power supply 120. In other alternative embodiments, the suction nozzle assembly 130 is integrally formed with the second housing 12 of the memory 1, or the suction nozzle assembly 130 is formed as a part of the second housing 12.
[0059] In some embodiments, reference may be made to Figure 4 , Figures 7-10The atomizer 2 includes a first housing 23, which includes a first partition 24. The first partition 24 is disposed inside the first housing 23 and divides the internal space of the first housing 23 into a plurality of first storage cavities 21 for storing liquid matrix. Thus, a plurality of first storage cavities 21 are formed between the first housing 23 and the first partition 24, and at least a portion of the boundary of each first storage cavity 21 is defined by the first housing 23 and / or the first partition 24. The liquid matrix can be directly injected into the corresponding first storage cavity 21 for storage.
[0060] The first housing 23 and the first partition 24 are integrally formed, for example, by injection molding, or by insert molding process to form an integral structure.
[0061] Compared to using a liquid reservoir to hold the liquid matrix and then housing multiple liquid reservoirs in a first housing, the first partition 24 disposed inside the first housing 23 is integrally formed with the first housing 23, and multiple second storage chambers 1 that can directly store the liquid matrix are formed between the first partition 24 and the first housing 232. This configuration can significantly reduce the volume of the atomizer 2 and effectively reduce the production cost of the atomizer 2.
[0062] The same liquid matrix can be stored in different first storage cavities 21.
[0063] Alternatively, the liquid matrix stored in at least two of the first storage cavities 21 may be different, resulting in aerosols produced after atomization of the liquid matrix in the at least two first storage cavities 21 having different flavors or different textures. For example, the liquid matrix stored in one of the first storage cavities 21 may include a cooling agent, while the liquid matrix stored in the other first storage cavity 21 may not include a cooling agent, resulting in aerosols produced after atomization of the liquid matrix in the two first storage cavities 21 having different flavors; or, for example, the liquid matrix stored in both first storage cavities 21 may include a cooling agent, but the proportion of cooling agent contained in the liquid matrix in the two first storage cavities 21 may be different, resulting in aerosols produced after atomization of the liquid matrix in the two first storage cavities 21 having different textures.
[0064] In some embodiments, reference may be made to Figure 4 and Figure 8At least one first storage cavity 21 contains a liquid storage element 211. The liquid storage element 211 has a large number of pores, which can adsorb and store the liquid matrix to prevent leakage of the liquid matrix in the first storage cavity 21. The liquid storage element 211 includes, but is not limited to, one of the following materials: cotton fiber, polypropylene fiber, polyester fiber, nylon fiber, porous ceramic material, polymer fiber, or various combinations of the above materials. The liquid storage element 211 may occupy a portion of the space in the corresponding first storage cavity 21, thereby creating a gap between the liquid storage element 211 and the first housing 23 and / or the first partition 24. This gap helps to equalize the internal air pressure of the first storage cavity 21.
[0065] In some embodiments, reference may be made to Figures 8-10 The first partition 24 includes a hollow first central tube 242 and a plurality of first partition plates 241 extending radially from the first central tube 242. Two adjacent first storage cavities 21 are spaced apart by at least one first partition plate 241, or two adjacent first storage cavities 21 are located on opposite sides of a corresponding first partition plate 241. Further, two opposing surfaces of a first partition plate 241 define partial boundaries of two adjacent first storage cavities 21. One end of each of the plurality of first partition plates 241 is connected to the first central tube 242, and the other end of each of the plurality of first partition plates 241 is connected to the first housing 23.
[0066] Furthermore, at least partially rotatably, the connecting post 1205 of the power supply 120 passes through the first central tube 242.
[0067] In some embodiments, Figures 4 to 6 The first housing 23 has a proximal end and a distal end. Multiple aerosol outlets 2c and multiple liquid inlets 25 are provided at the proximal end of the first housing 23. At least one liquid inlet 25 communicates with a corresponding first storage cavity 21, thereby introducing a liquid matrix into the first storage cavity 21. This allows liquid matrix to be replenished into the corresponding first storage cavity 21 through the liquid inlet 25, extending the lifespan of the atomizer 2 and reducing its operating cost. Furthermore, the second storage cavity 11 in the storage 1 can replenish the corresponding first storage cavity 21 with liquid matrix through the liquid inlet 25.
[0068] Each aerosol outlet 2c is in fluid communication with its corresponding atomizing core 22 for outputting aerosol. Furthermore, at least one liquid inlet 25 is disposed adjacent to each aerosol outlet 2c.
[0069] In some embodiments, multiple aerosol outlets 2c are distributed on a circular trajectory centered on the central axis of the atomizer 2, such that the distance between the multiple aerosol outlets 2c and the central axis of the atomizer 2 is equal. This facilitates the combination of the memory 1 and the atomizer 2 in multiple directions or angles when the memory 1 has multiple air guides 15 arranged on another circular trajectory, thus improving the combination efficiency of the memory 1 and the atomizer 2. Alternatively, when the memory 1 containing multiple air guides 15 or an assembly formed by multiple memory 1s can rotate relative to the atomizer 2, it facilitates changing the air guide 15 communicating with the aerosol outlets 2c in the atomizer 2. Alternatively, when the atomizer 2 can be combined with multiple memory 1s, the multiple memory 1s can be arranged on another circular trajectory, allowing the air guides 15 of different memory 1s to deliver aerosols generated by different atomizing cores 22 atomizing liquid matrices.
[0070] In some embodiments, multiple liquid inlets 25 are distributed on a circular trajectory centered on the central axis of the atomizer 2, such that the distance between the multiple liquid inlets 25 and the central axis of the atomizer 2 is equal. This facilitates the combination of the memory 1 and the atomizer 2 in multiple directions or angles when the memory 1 has multiple second storage cavities 11 arranged on another circular trajectory, thus improving the combination efficiency of the memory 1 and the atomizer 2. Alternatively, it facilitates the changing of the second storage cavities 11 communicating with the liquid inlets 25 in the atomizer 2 when the memory 1 containing multiple second storage cavities 11 or an assembly formed by multiple memory 1s can rotate relative to the atomizer 2. Alternatively, when the atomizer 2 can be combined with multiple memory 1s, the multiple memory 1s can be arranged on another circular trajectory, allowing the second storage cavities 11 of different memory 1s to replenish the liquid matrix to different atomizing cores 22 or first storage cavities 21. The central axis of the atomizer 2 can extend longitudinally.
[0071] In some embodiments, reference may be made to Figure 6 Each first storage cavity 21 is connected to a first liquid inlet 25a and a second liquid inlet 25b. When the memory 1 is combined with the atomizer 2, of the first liquid inlet 25a and the second liquid inlet 25b connected to the same first storage cavity 21, one liquid inlet 25a is used to provide a path for introducing liquid from the second storage cavity 11 into the first storage cavity 21, and the other liquid inlet 25b provides air exchange between the first storage cavity 21 and the second storage cavity 11, thereby ensuring relatively smooth liquid flow between the second storage cavity 11 and the first storage cavity 21.
[0072] The first liquid inlet 25a and the second liquid inlet 25b can be distributed on opposite sides of the aerosol outlet 2c.
[0073] In some embodiments, reference may be made to Figure 4 , Figure 9 and Figure 10 The atomizer 2 also includes multiple bases 2a connected to the first housing 23. Each base 2a is correspondingly disposed with one of the first storage chambers 21, and each base 2a defines an air guide hole 2b communicating with the corresponding atomizing core 22. The air guide hole 2b is used to guide the airflow from outside the atomizer 2 to the corresponding atomizing core 22. An aerosol channel is established between the air guide hole 2b and the corresponding aerosol output port 2c to provide airflow through the atomizing core 22.
[0074] The base 2a can be positioned on the side of the atomizer 2 opposite to the memory 1. Alternatively, the base 2a can be positioned on the side of the atomizer 2 opposite to the liquid inlet 25 or the aerosol outlet 2c. In other words, the liquid inlet 25 and / or the aerosol outlet 2c and the base 2a can be located on opposite sides of the corresponding first memory cavity 21. Furthermore, the base 2a can be positioned at the distal end of the first housing 23 or adjacent to the distal end of the first housing 23.
[0075] In some embodiments, reference may be made to Figure 4 The base 2a defines a portion of the boundary of the corresponding first storage cavity 11, and the base 2a includes a first base 2a1 and a first seal 2a2 disposed on the first base 2a1. The first seal 2a2 provides a seal between the first base 2a1 and the first housing 23, and provides a seal between the first base 2a1 and the first partition 24.
[0076] The hardness of the first seal 2a2 is less than that of the first base 2a1. The first base 2a1 can support the first seal 2a2. For example, the first seal 2a2 can be made of silicone, and the first base 2a1 can be an injection molded part.
[0077] In some embodiments, reference may be made to Figure 8 Multiple first storage cavities 21 are arranged around the central axis of the first housing 23, so that the first housing 23 can simultaneously define part of the boundaries of multiple first storage cavities 21.
[0078] Furthermore, you can refer to Figure 9 and Figure 10The first bases 2a1 of the multiple bases 2a are integrally formed to simplify the assembly process of the atomizer 2. The first seals 2a2 of the multiple bases 2a can be formed independently, and after the first seals 2a2 of the multiple bases 2a are correspondingly arranged on the multiple first bases 2a1, adjacent first seals 2a2 can be spaced apart. The end of the first partition 24 located between two adjacent first storage cavities 21 can be fitted between two adjacent first seals 2a2. Of course, in other embodiments, the first seals 2a2 included in the multiple bases 2a can also be integrally formed to further simplify the assembly process of the atomizer 2.
[0079] In some embodiments, the first bases 2a1 of the plurality of bases 2a are arranged in a ring, so that the plurality of bases 2a can be arranged around the connecting post 1205 of the power supply 120. Further, the first bases 2a1 of the plurality of bases 2a are distributed at intervals on a circular trajectory centered on the central axis of the first housing 23.
[0080] In some embodiments, the power supply 120 includes an air inlet 1206. When the atomizing module 110 or the atomizer 2 is connected to the power supply 120, the air inlet 1206 can introduce external airflow into the atomizing module 110 or the atomizer 2. Further, when the atomizing module 110 or the atomizer 2 is connected to the power supply 120, at least one atomizing core 22 in the atomizer 2 can communicate with the air inlet 1206, thereby the air inlet 1206 can guide external airflow to the communicating atomizing core 22. Further, the number of air inlets 1206 is less than or equal to the number of atomizing cores 22 in the atomizer 2, and the atomizer 2 or the atomizing module 110 is configured to rotate relative to the power supply 120, so that the atomizing core 22 communicating with the air inlet 1206 can be selected or changed by rotation.
[0081] In some embodiments, reference may be made to Figure 9 and Figure 10 Each base 2a is also provided with a power-taking electrode 2d, which is electrically connected to the corresponding atomizing core 22. The power supply 1201 provides electrical power to the corresponding atomizing core 22 by outputting current or voltage to the power-taking electrode 2d.
[0082] In some embodiments, reference may be made to Figure 1 and Figure 3 The power supply 120 includes a power supply electrode 1204, and the atomizing module 110 is configured to rotate relative to the power supply electrode 1204 to selectively electrically connect at least one of its atomizing cores 22 to the power supply electrode 1204.
[0083] The power supply 1201 of the power supply unit 120 is electrically connected to the power supply electrode 1204 so that the power supply electrode 1204 outputs electrical power to the atomizer 2. Thus, the atomizing core 22, which is electrically connected to the power supply electrode 1204, can obtain the electrical work output by the power supply 1201 and then atomize the liquid matrix to generate aerosol.
[0084] The number of power supply electrodes 1204 is less than the number of atomizing cores 22, so that when the atomizing module 110 is connected to the power supply unit 120, at least one atomizing core 22 has no electrical connection with the power supply electrode 1204. The atomizing core 22 electrically connected to the power supply electrode 1204 can be selected or switched by rotating the atomizing module 110 relative to the power supply electrode 1204. Furthermore, the atomizing core 22 electrically connected to the power supply electrode 1204 is also connected to the air intake port 1206.
[0085] The power supply electrode 1204 can be selectively electrically connected to the corresponding atomizing core 22 by abutting against the selectively tapping electrode 2d. The number of tapping electrodes 2d can be equal to the number of atomizing cores 22 or the number of first storage cavities 21.
[0086] In some embodiments, reference may be made to Figure 9 and Figure 10 The first housing 23 also includes a first top wall 231 and a first annular wall 232 surrounding the plurality of first storage cavities 21. The first partition 24 connects the first top wall 231 and the first annular wall 232, and the first top wall 231 simultaneously defines the proximal boundary of the plurality of first storage cavities 21. The base 2a defines the distal boundary of the corresponding first storage cavity 21.
[0087] When the first housing 23 and the first partition 24 are integrally formed, the first top wall 231 and the first annular wall 232 of the first housing 23 are integrally formed, and the first annular wall 232, the first top wall 231 and the first partition 24 are integrally formed.
[0088] In some embodiments, reference may be made to Figure 9 and Figure 10 An insertion portion 29 is provided on the first top wall 231, extending longitudinally away from the first storage cavity 11. The first top wall 231 includes a support portion 2311, which is located around the insertion portion 29 and connected to the first annular wall 232.
[0089] The insertion part 29 is used to insert into the interior of the memory 1, and the support part 2311 is used to support the memory 1 in the vertical direction.
[0090] In some embodiments, reference may be made to Figure 5The memory 1 and the atomizer 2 are snapped together. For example, at least one of the memory 1 and the atomizer 2 is provided with a snap-fit groove 1211, and the other is provided with a snap-fit part 291. The memory 1 and the atomizer 2 are snapped together by snapping the snap-fit part into the snap-fit groove 1211.
[0091] Furthermore, the memory 1 includes a second annular wall 121 and a docking portion 14, both of which define a portion of the boundary of the second memory cavity 11.
[0092] The memory 1 also includes a receiving space 18, and the atomizer 2 includes an insertion portion 29. When the memory 1 and the atomizer 2 are combined, the insertion portion 29 is inserted into the receiving space 18. Further, a second annular wall 121 surrounds the receiving space 18 and defines its circumferential boundary. The mating portion 14 or the second base 143, facing away from the end face of the second storage cavity 11, defines a portion of the boundary of the receiving space 18. A fastening groove 1211 is provided corresponding to the receiving space 18, and a fastening portion 291 is provided on the side wall of the insertion portion 29. Thus, when the memory 1 and the atomizer 2 are combined, the insertion portion 29 is located in the receiving space 18 and surrounded by the second annular wall 121, and the fastening portion 291 is fastened in the fastening groove 1211. Simultaneously, the insertion portion 29 can longitudinally support the mating portion 14 or the second base 143, and / or the support portion 2311 can longitudinally support the distal end of the second annular wall 121.
[0093] In some embodiments, reference may be made to Figure 4 and Figure 8 A holding tube 28 is provided in the first storage cavity 21. The holding tube 28 connects the first top wall 231 and the base 2a, and at least one atomizing core 22 is provided in the holding tube 28. Multiple holding tubes 28 are connected to multiple aerosol output ports 25 one-to-one. The holding tube 28 is also connected to an air guide hole 2b provided on the corresponding base 2a. Preferably, the holding tube 28 extends longitudinally in the first storage cavity 21. A liquid guide hole (not shown) may be provided on the wall of the holding tube 28. The liquid guide hole is used to connect the corresponding first storage cavity 21 and the atomizing core 22, so that the first storage cavity 21 can provide a liquid matrix for the corresponding atomizing core 22 for atomization.
[0094] The retaining tube 28 can be integrally formed with the first housing 23. The retaining tube 28 can be connected to the first housing 23 by assembly.
[0095] In some embodiments, reference may be made to Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 7The memory 1 includes multiple liquid guiding channels 141, and each second storage cavity 11 is connected to at least one liquid guiding channel 141, so that different second storage cavities 11 can export liquid matrix from the second storage cavity 11 through different liquid guiding channels 141.
[0096] When the memory 1 is connected to the atomizer 2, multiple liquid channels 141 are set one-to-one with multiple liquid inlets 25, so that different second storage chambers 11 can replenish the liquid matrix to the corresponding first storage chamber 21 through different liquid inlets 25.
[0097] Furthermore, the memory 1 includes multiple guide columns 142, each guide column 142 having at least one liquid channel 141. When the memory 1 is connected to the atomizer 2, the multiple guide columns 142 are inserted into the multiple liquid inlets 25 in a one-to-one correspondence, thereby replenishing the liquid matrix from the first storage chamber 11 to the corresponding second storage chamber 11.
[0098] In some embodiments, reference may be made to Figure 9 and Figure 10 The atomizer 2 also includes multiple soft plugs 2e, each corresponding to a plurality of first storage chambers 21. The multiple soft plugs 2e are located on the proximal end of the first housing 23. The liquid inlet 25 includes a first through hole 251 formed in the soft plug 2e, and each soft plug 2e has at least one first through hole 251. In such cases... Figure 9 In the illustrated embodiment, each soft plug 2e has two first through holes 251. The flow guide column 142 is provided with an outlet hole 1421 for exporting the liquid matrix in the liquid channel 141.
[0099] When the memory 1 and the atomizer 2 are connected, the guide column 142 is partially interference-fitted into the first through hole 251, and the outlet hole 1421 passes through the first through hole 251, so that the outlet hole 1421 and the corresponding second memory cavity 11 are located on opposite sides of the first through hole 251. The soft plug 2e is sealed to the guide column 142 to prevent the liquid matrix discharged by the outlet hole 1421 from leaking between the guide column 142 and the soft plug 2e.
[0100] Multiple soft plugs 2e can be integrally molded, so that the multiple soft plugs 2e can be connected to the first housing 23 as a whole. The multiple soft plugs 2e can be connected to the first housing 23 separately.
[0101] Furthermore, the insertion part 29 includes multiple annular portions, and multiple soft plugs 2e are fitted into the multiple annular portions in a one-to-one correspondence.
[0102] In some embodiments, reference may be made to Figure 9The soft plug 2e is held on the first top wall 231. The liquid inlet 25 includes a second through hole 252 formed on the first top wall 231, thus the first top wall 231 has multiple second through holes 252, which are connected one-to-one with multiple first through holes 251. When the memory 1 and the atomizer 2 are connected, a portion of the guide column 142 may be located in the second through hole 252. The outlet hole 1421 may be located in the second through hole 252. The outlet hole 1421 may pass through the second through hole 252, thus the outlet hole 1421 and the first through hole 251 are located on opposite sides of the second through hole 252.
[0103] In some embodiments, reference may be made to Figure 11 The memory 1 includes a second housing 12, the second housing 12 includes a second partition 13, the second partition 13 is disposed inside the second housing 12 and divides the internal space of the second housing 12 into a plurality of second storage cavities 11 for storing liquid matrix, thereby forming a plurality of second storage cavities 11 between the second housing 12 and the second partition 13, and at least a portion of the boundary of each second storage cavity 11 is defined by the second housing 12 and / or the second partition 13, and the liquid matrix can be directly injected into the corresponding second storage cavity 11 for storage.
[0104] The second housing 12 and the second partition 13 are integrally formed, for example, by injection molding, or by insert molding process to form an integral structure.
[0105] Compared to using a liquid reservoir to hold the liquid matrix and then housing multiple liquid reservoirs in a second housing, the arrangement of a second partition 13 integrally formed with the second housing 12 and forming multiple second storage cavities 11 between the second partition 13 and the second housing 12 to directly store the liquid matrix can significantly reduce the volume of the memory 1 and effectively reduce the production cost of the memory 1.
[0106] In some embodiments, reference may be made to Figure 3 and Figure 4 The memory 1 also includes a plurality of docking portions 14 for docking with the atomizer 2. When the memory 1 and the atomizer 2 are used together, the docking portions 14 can be connected to the atomizer 2. For example, at least a portion of the docking portion 14 can be fitted into the atomizer 2, or a portion of the atomizer 2 can be fitted into the docking portion 14.
[0107] Each of the second storage cavities 11 is correspondingly provided with at least one docking part 14, and the docking part 14 defines a liquid guiding channel 141, which is used to export the liquid matrix from the corresponding second storage cavity 11 for atomization by the atomizer 2.
[0108] Preferably, each second storage chamber 11 is correspondingly provided with at least two liquid guiding channels 141. When the memory 1 is connected to the atomizer 2, each second storage chamber 11 is connected to the atomizer 2 through at least two liquid guiding channels 141. These at least two liquid guiding channels 141 can guide the liquid matrix stored in the second storage chamber 11 to the atomizer 2, and can also keep the corresponding second storage chamber 11 and atomizer 2 in a pressure balance, which helps to prevent accidents where the liquid matrix stored in the second storage chamber 11 cannot be discharged due to negative pressure.
[0109] In some embodiments, reference may be made to Figure 3 and Figure 4 The docking portion 14 includes a guide column 142. When the memory 1 and the atomizer 2 are combined, the guide column 142 connects to the atomizer 2. At least a portion of the guide column 142 extends longitudinally outside the corresponding second storage cavity 11, and at least one guide channel 141 is defined inside the guide column 142. Thus, when the memory 1 and the atomizer 2 are connected, the atomizing core 22 of the atomizer 2 is located outside the second storage cavity 11, and the second storage cavity 11 and the atomizer 2 are arranged longitudinally. Furthermore, when the memory 1 and the atomizer 2 are connected, the atomizing core 22 is located outside the guide channel 141, and the guide channel 141 is located longitudinally between the corresponding second storage cavity 11 and the atomizing core 22. Even further, the guide channel 141 may be located longitudinally between the corresponding second storage cavity 11 and the corresponding first storage cavity 21 or atomizing core 22 in the atomizer 2.
[0110] The flow guide column 142 extends in a direction away from the second housing 12, or the flow guide column 142 extends longitudinally away from the second storage cavity 11. The flow guide column 142 may extend outside the second housing 12. Of course, at least a portion of the flow guide column 142 may be located within the second housing 12.
[0111] The flow guide column 142 can be fitted into the atomizer 2. For example, when the memory 1 and the atomizer 2 are combined, at least a portion of the flow guide column 142 can be fitted into the atomizer 2, or a portion of the atomizer 2 can be fitted into the flow guide column 142. Figure 6 In the embodiment shown, the atomizer 2 includes a plurality of liquid inlets 25 provided with corresponding guide columns 142 on the plurality of docking portions 14. When the memory 1 and the atomizer 2 are combined, at least a portion of the guide columns 142 is fitted into the corresponding liquid inlets 25.
[0112] In some embodiments, reference may be made to Figure 3 and Figure 11The guide column 142 has an outlet hole 1421 on its side wall for exporting the liquid matrix in the guide channel 141. The end of the guide column 142 away from the corresponding second storage cavity 11 has a bottom wall 1422. The outlet hole 1421 and the bottom wall 1422 are spaced apart. The outer side of the side wall of the guide column 142 also has a guide groove 1423, which extends from the outlet hole 1421 to the bottom wall 1422.
[0113] Thus, when the guide column 142 is fitted into the corresponding liquid inlet 25, the guide groove 1423 creates a gap between the guide column 142 and the groove wall of the liquid inlet 25, which connects the outlet hole 1421 and the atomizing core 22 or the first storage chamber 21 in the atomizer 2. The liquid matrix in the guide channel 141 can flow through this gap to the atomizing core 22 or the first storage chamber 21 in the atomizer 2, thereby preventing the groove wall of the liquid inlet 25 from being too close to the outlet hole 1421 and affecting the liquid matrix in the guide channel 141 from being discharged through the outlet hole 1421.
[0114] In some embodiments, when the atomizer 1 and the memory 2 are connected, the bottom wall 1422 of the guide column 142 abuts against the liquid storage element 211 in the corresponding first storage cavity 21. Therefore, opening the outlet hole 1421 on the side wall of the guide column 142 can prevent the liquid storage element 211 from blocking the outlet hole 1421.
[0115] In some embodiments, the memory 1 has a plurality of second storage cavities 11. When the atomizer 2 and the memory 1 are connected, the plurality of first storage cavities 21 and the plurality of second storage cavities 11 are configured in a one-to-one correspondence, so that the plurality of second storage cavities 11 can replenish the liquid matrix of the plurality of first storage cavities 21 in a one-to-one correspondence.
[0116] In some embodiments (not shown), the docking portion includes a laterally extending second base, which connects to the second housing and the second partition. A flow guide extends from the second base in a direction away from the corresponding second storage cavity, such that the flow guide is located outside the corresponding second storage cavity. The second base, the flow guide, the second housing, and the second partition are integrally formed, and the second base simultaneously defines partial boundaries of a plurality of second storage cavities.
[0117] In some embodiments, reference may be made to Figure 11 The docking part 14 and the second housing 12 are formed independently and then connected to each other by assembly.
[0118] Furthermore, the mating portion 14 defines a portion of the boundary of the corresponding second storage cavity 11, and the mating portion 14 includes a second base 143 and a second seal 144 disposed on the second base 143. The second seal 144 provides a seal between the second base 143 and the second housing 12, and a seal between the second base 143 and the second partition portion 13. The hardness of the second seal 144 is less than the hardness of the second base 143, and the second base 143 is capable of supporting the second seal 144. For example, the second seal 144 can be made of silicone, and the second base 143 can be an injection molded part.
[0119] In some embodiments, reference may be made to Figure 11 When the storage cavity 1 has multiple second storage cavities 11, the second housing 12 has a longitudinally extending central axis, and the multiple second storage cavities 11 are arranged around the central axis of the second housing 12, such that the distance between the multiple second storage cavities 11 and the central axis of the second housing 12 can be equal. Furthermore, the second housing 12 can simultaneously define partial boundaries of the multiple second storage cavities 11. And when the atomizer 2 and the storage 1 are connected, the central axis of the second housing 12 coincides with the central axis of the first housing 23.
[0120] Furthermore, the second bases 143 of the plurality of mating portions 14 are integrally formed to simplify the assembly process of the memory 1. The second seals 144 of the plurality of mating portions 14 can be formed independently, and after the second seals 144 of the plurality of mating portions 14 are correspondingly disposed on the plurality of second bases 143, adjacent second seals 144 can be spaced apart. The end of the second partition 13 located between two adjacent second storage cavities 11 can be fitted between two adjacent second seals 144. Of course, in other embodiments, the second seals 144 included in the plurality of mating portions 14 can also be integrally formed to further simplify the assembly process of the memory 1.
[0121] In some embodiments, the second bases 143 of the plurality of mating portions 14 are arranged in a ring, so that the plurality of mating portions 14 can be disposed around the connecting post 1205 of the power supply 120. Further, the second bases 143 of the plurality of mating portions 14 are distributed at intervals on a circular trajectory centered on the central axis of the second housing 12.
[0122] In some embodiments, reference may be made to Figure 3 and Figure 4 The flow guide column 142 on the docking portion 14 extends from the second base 143 included in the docking portion 14 outside the corresponding second storage cavity 11, wherein the second base 143 and the corresponding flow guide column 142 can be integrally formed. Preferably, the flow guide column 142 extends longitudinally and is disposed perpendicular to the corresponding second base 143.
[0123] In some embodiments, a plurality of guide columns 142 are spaced apart on a circular trajectory centered on the central axis of the second housing 12, such that the distance between the plurality of guide columns 142 and the central axis of the second housing 12 can be equal. This allows the memory 1 and the atomizer 2 to be combined in multiple directions or angles when the atomizer 2 has a plurality of atomizing cores 22 arranged on another circular trajectory, thus improving the combination efficiency of the memory 1 and the atomizer 2. Alternatively, it facilitates changing the second storage cavity 11 connected to the atomizing cores 22 in the atomizer 2 when the memory 1 can rotate relative to the atomizer 2.
[0124] In some embodiments, reference may be made to Figure 8 The second partition 13 includes a second central tube 132 and a plurality of second partition plates 131 extending radially from the second central tube 132. Two adjacent second storage cavities 11 are spaced apart by at least one second partition plate 131, or two adjacent second storage cavities 11 are located on opposite sides of a corresponding second partition plate 131. Further, two opposing surfaces of a second partition plate 131 define partial boundaries of two adjacent second storage cavities 11. One end of each of the plurality of second partition plates 131 is connected to the second central tube 132, and the other end of each of the plurality of second partition plates 131 is connected to the second housing 12.
[0125] Furthermore, at least partially rotatably, the connecting post 1205 of the power supply 120 is rotatably inserted into the second central tube 132.
[0126] In some embodiments, reference may be made to Figure 1 and Figure 8 The memory 1 also includes a plurality of air guides 15, and each second storage cavity 11 is correspondingly provided with at least one air guide 15; the air guide 15 is configured to discharge the aerosol generated by the atomization of the liquid matrix in the corresponding second storage cavity 11. Thus, the aerosol generated after the liquid matrix in different second storage cavities 11 is discharged and atomized can be guided to the air intake 1301 by different air guides 15.
[0127] Furthermore, the atomizer 2 includes a plurality of atomizing cores 22 for atomizing liquid matrix to generate aerosol. Each second storage chamber 11 has at least one atomizing core 22 connected to it, so that the liquid matrix stored in different second storage chambers 11 can be atomized by different atomizing cores 22 to generate aerosol, or one atomizing core 22 can only atomize the liquid matrix stored in one second storage chamber 11.
[0128] Furthermore, the air guide 15 corresponding to the second storage cavity 11 is connected to the atomizing core 22 corresponding to the second storage cavity 11. Thus, the air guide 15 can atomize the liquid matrix stored in the corresponding second storage cavity 11 by the atomizing core 22 and guide it to the intake port 1301. Aerosols generated by other atomizing cores 22 atomizing liquid matrices provided by other second storage cavities 11 are guided to the intake port by other air guides 15. Compared to multiple first storage cavities 11 connected to the same atomizing core 22, crosstalk can be prevented during the atomization process of liquid matrices provided by different second storage cavities 11. Compared to the same air guide 15 being connected to multiple atomizing cores 22 respectively connected to multiple second storage cavities 11, crosstalk can be prevented before the atomizer assembly 130 is guided to the atomizer.
[0129] In some embodiments, a plurality of air guides 15 are spaced apart on a circular trajectory centered on the central axis of the second housing 12, such that the distance between the plurality of air guides 15 and the central axis of the second housing 12 can be equal. This allows the memory 1 and the atomizer 2 to be combined in multiple directions or angles when the atomizer 2 has a plurality of atomizing cores 22 arranged on another circular trajectory, thus improving the combination efficiency of the memory 1 and the atomizer 2. Alternatively, it facilitates changing the air guides 15 communicating with the atomizing cores 22 in the atomizer 2 when the memory 1 can rotate relative to the atomizer 2. Alternatively, it facilitates changing the air guides 15 communicating with the air inlet 1206 of the power supply 120 when the atomizing module 110 can rotate relative to the power supply 120.
[0130] In some embodiments, reference may be made to Figure 3 The air guide 15 is connected to the corresponding docking part 14, and the second sealing member 144 provides a seal between the second base 143 and the corresponding air guide 15. Furthermore, the docking part 14 is provided with an airflow inlet 145, which is provided corresponding to the air guide 15 to guide the aerosol generated by the atomizer 2 into the corresponding air guide 15.
[0131] In some embodiments, reference may be made to Figure 4The second storage cavity 11 has a proximal end and a distal end disposed opposite to each other. The second housing 12 further includes a second top wall 122 and a second annular wall 121 disposed around the plurality of second storage cavities 11. A second partition 13 connects the second top wall 122 and the second annular wall 121, and the second top wall 122 simultaneously defines the proximal boundaries of the plurality of second storage cavities 11. A mating portion 14 at least defines the distal boundary of the corresponding second storage cavity 11. When the second housing 12 and the second partition 13 are integrally formed, the second top wall 122 and the second annular wall 121 of the second housing 12 are integrally formed, and the second top wall 122, the second annular wall 121 and the second partition 13 are integrally formed.
[0132] Furthermore, at least a portion of the air guide 15 extends longitudinally in the corresponding second storage cavity 11, and the air guide 15 is connected to the corresponding docking portion 14 and the second top wall 122.
[0133] The second housing 12 and the plurality of air guides 15 can also be integrally formed. Thus, the plurality of air guides 15 can be integrally formed with the second top wall 122 and the second annular wall 121 of the second housing 12. Furthermore, the plurality of air guides 15 can be integrally formed with the first spacer 13.
[0134] Preferably, the air guide 15 is disposed at intervals with the second annular wall 121 and the second partition 13 in the corresponding second storage cavity 11.
[0135] In some embodiments, the atomizing core 22 is configured to first atomize at least a portion of the liquid matrix stored in the corresponding first storage chamber 21. While the atomizing core 22 atomizes the liquid matrix stored in the corresponding first storage chamber 21, the corresponding second storage chamber 11 can replenish the first storage chamber 21 with liquid matrix. Alternatively, it can be configured so that the corresponding second storage chamber 11 replenishes the corresponding first storage chamber 21 with liquid matrix only after the atomizing core 22 has atomized the liquid matrix to a preset amount, preset duration, or preset number of puffs. Alternatively, it can be configured so that during the atomizing process of the atomizing core 22, the corresponding second storage chamber 11 can intermittently replenish the corresponding first storage chamber 21 with liquid matrix multiple times.
[0136] In some embodiments, the liquid matrix stored in the second storage chamber 11 and the corresponding first storage chamber 21 is the same. Thus, the corresponding atomizing core 22 can produce aerosols with substantially the same flavor when atomizing the liquid matrix stored in the first storage chamber 21 and the corresponding second storage chamber 11.
[0137] In some embodiments, reference may be made to Figure 3 and Figure 5The memory 1 is provided with a foolproof part 16, and the atomizer 2 is provided with a foolproof mating part 26 that can interfere with the foolproof part 16, so that the second storage chamber 11 and the first storage chamber 21 storing the same liquid matrix are correspondingly provided.
[0138] Furthermore, a foolproof part 16 is provided on the docking part 14 for connecting with the atomizer 2, or a foolproof part 16 is provided between two adjacent docking parts 14.
[0139] The mis-proofing part 16 may include a protrusion provided on the mating part 14 or between two adjacent mating parts 14, or may include a feature structure on the protrusion. For example, protrusions provided on different mating parts 14 may have different sizes, shapes, or structures. For example, protrusions provided between different mating parts 14 may have different sizes, shapes, or structures. For example, only one mating part 14 may have a protrusion, or only one mating part 14 may not have a protrusion. For example, there may be multiple protrusions, one of which has a different size, shape, or structure from at least one other protrusion.
[0140] In such Figure 3 In the illustrated embodiment, a plurality of radially extending ridges 17 are provided, and one of the ridges 17 has a recess on its end face. In this case, the foolproof part 16 includes the ridge 17 with the recess, or the foolproof part 16 includes the recess on the ridge 17.
[0141] Alternatively, if a plurality of radially extending ridges 17 are present, and the fracture on one of the ridges 17 is smaller than the fractures 171 on the other ridges 17, then the foolproof part 16 includes the ridge 17 with the smallest fracture 171, or includes the fracture 171 with the smallest size.
[0142] Alternatively, if there are multiple protruding ridges, only one of which has no break, while the other protruding ridges have breaks, then the foolproof part includes the protruding ridge without a break.
[0143] In some embodiments, reference may be made to Figure 5 The atomizer 2 has a slit 27. When the atomizer 2 is connected to the memory 1, the protrusion 17 on the memory 1 can be fitted into the corresponding slit 27.
[0144] Furthermore, the atomizer 2 has a plurality of radially extending slits 27, some of which have transverse blocks 271 that separate the slits. When the atomizer is connected to the memory, the transverse blocks 271 can fit into appropriately sized breaks 171 on the corresponding protrusions 17.
[0145] Furthermore, one of the slits 27 does not have a cross block 271, so that the slit 27 can receive the smallest protrusion 17 with a break 171 or can receive a protrusion 17 without a break 171. The foolproof mating part 16 includes the slit 27 without a cross block 271.
[0146] In some embodiments, there are multiple memory 1s. When the atomizer 2 is connected to the memory 1, each atomizer core 22 is configured to correspond to at least one memory 1, such that different memory 1s replenish the liquid matrix to the corresponding first storage chamber 21 through different liquid inlets 25.
[0147] Multiple memory 1 can be set one-to-one with multiple first storage cavities 21, so that when multiple aerosol output ports 2c are distributed on a circular trajectory with the central axis of the atomizer 2 as the center, after the multiple memory 1 is connected to the atomizer 2, the multiple memory 1 can be set around the central axis of the atomizer 2, so that the distance between the multiple memory 1 and the central axis of the atomizer 2 can be equal.
[0148] In some embodiments, the power supply 120 further includes a connecting post 1205, the end of which passes through the atomizing module 110 and connects to the mouthpiece assembly 130, so that the power supply 120 and the mouthpiece assembly 130 can rotate synchronously with the atomizing module 110. Thus, the atomizing module 110 can rotate simultaneously relative to the mouthpiece assembly 130 and the power supply 120, and this rotation allows the atomizing core 22, which is electrically connected to the power supply electrode 1204, to simultaneously communicate with the inhalation port 1301.
[0149] In some embodiments, the atomizing module 110 is rotatably configured to accommodate the housing 1202.
[0150] In some embodiments, the housing 1202 includes a first housing 12021 and a second housing 12022. A receiving space 1203 is disposed in the first housing 12021. The end of the connecting post 1205 facing away from the nozzle assembly 130 and the power supply electrode 1204 are both statically connected to the second housing 12022. The first housing 12021 is configured to rotate relative to the second housing 12022, the connecting post 1205 and the power supply electrode 1204. When the atomizing module 110 is located in the receiving space 1203, it interferes with the first housing 12021 in the circumferential direction, thereby enabling the atomizing module 110 to rotate synchronously with the first housing 12021 relative to the second housing 12022, the connecting post 1205 and the power supply electrode 1204. Thus, the user can rotate the atomizing module 110 around the connecting post 1205 by operating the first housing 12021 and / or the second housing 12022, and simultaneously rotate the atomizing module 110 relative to the power supply electrode 1204 and the mouthpiece assembly 130.
