Description

Technical Field

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

[0002] An electronic atomizing device is an electronic product that generates an aerosol by atomizing a liquid matrix for users to inhale. It generally consists of two parts: an atomizer and a power supply component. The atomizer contains a liquid storage chamber for storing the liquid matrix and an atomizing core for atomizing the liquid matrix. The power supply component includes a power supply and a circuit board.

[0003] Existing electronic atomizing devices typically transport the liquid reservoir and the atomizer core separately, with the atomizer core containing no liquid matrix. Before use, the user must assemble the reservoir and core, and only after the liquid matrix in the reservoir has been fully absorbed by the core can they inhale. Inhaling before this is done will only produce a burnt or other unpleasant-smelling aerosol. This design results in excessively long waiting times, negatively impacting the user experience.

[0004] Another type of electronic atomizing device typically has a spare reservoir. Generally, the liquid matrix stored in the spare reservoir is different from that in the atomizer's main reservoir. When using it, the spare reservoir is inserted into the atomizer, and the user has to wait a while before they can inhale different flavored aerosols; before that, they can only inhale a single flavor. The problem with this is that the waiting time for users to inhale different flavored aerosols is too long, reducing the user experience. Utility Model Content

[0005] This application aims to provide a liquid storage component, an atomizing assembly, and an electronic atomizing device to reduce user waiting time, ensure that users can vape the desired flavor, and improve the user experience.

[0006] This application provides an atomizing component, including:

[0007] A first housing, wherein a first liquid storage chamber for storing a liquid matrix is ​​formed within the first housing;

[0008] The second housing is independent of the first housing, and a second liquid storage cavity for storing a liquid matrix is ​​formed inside the second housing; the second housing can be connected to the first housing and a connecting channel for connecting the first liquid storage cavity and the second liquid storage cavity is established between the first liquid storage cavity and the second liquid storage cavity.

[0009] An atomizing core is disposed in the second housing and in fluid communication with the second liquid storage chamber. The atomizing core is used to atomize a liquid matrix to generate an aerosol.

[0010] A movable component is disposed on the first housing and configured to move relative to the first housing from a first position to a second position; during the movement of the movable component from the first position to the second position, it can compress the space of the first liquid storage chamber, thereby facilitating the flow of the liquid matrix stored in the first liquid storage chamber to the second liquid storage chamber through the connecting channel.

[0011] In one example, the first housing is provided with a connector, and the second housing is provided with a plug-in interface, the connector being inserted into the plug-in interface to establish the connection channel.

[0012] In one example, one end of the connector is in fluid communication with the first liquid storage chamber, and the other end of the connector extends in a direction away from the first liquid storage chamber; the other end of the connector is inserted into the second liquid storage chamber through the plug interface to be in fluid communication with the second liquid storage chamber.

[0013] In one example, a connecting pipe is provided inside the second housing, and a liquid passage hole is provided on the side wall of the connecting pipe. The atomizing core is disposed inside the connecting pipe and is in fluid communication with the second liquid storage chamber through the liquid passage hole.

[0014] The distance between the connector and the connecting pipe is between 0.5mm and 3mm.

[0015] In one example, the connector has an inclined portion extending from the other end of the connector to the sidewall of the connector, the outer surface of the inclined portion being disposed toward the atomizing core.

[0016] In one example, a ventilation groove is provided at the position of the inclined portion near the top of the second liquid storage chamber, and the ventilation groove is connected to the connecting channel.

[0017] In one example, the second reservoir is provided with a reservoir medium for holding the liquid matrix, and the other end of the connector is inserted into the reservoir medium.

[0018] In one example, the first housing is provided with a movable bracket, which forms the movable part;

[0019] As the support moves from the first position to the second position, it can compress the space of the first liquid storage chamber, thereby facilitating the output of the liquid matrix stored in the first liquid storage chamber through the connector.

[0020] In one example, the bracket is provided with a first snap-fit ​​buckle, and the first housing is provided with a first snap-fit ​​hole and a second snap-fit ​​hole at intervals;

[0021] When the bracket is in the first position, the first snap-fit ​​is engaged in the first snap-fit ​​hole;

[0022] When the bracket is in the second position, the first snap-fit ​​is engaged in the second snap-fit ​​hole.

[0023] In one example, the first snap-fit ​​hole and the second snap-fit ​​hole are arranged along the longitudinal direction of the first housing.

[0024] In one example, when the second housing is assembled onto the first housing, the second housing is capable of pushing the bracket from the first position to the second position.

[0025] In one example, the second housing is provided with a second snap fastener, and the first housing is provided with a third snap fastener hole;

[0026] When the second housing is assembled onto the first housing, the second snap-fit ​​engages in the third snap-fit ​​hole.

[0027] In one example, a transmission tube is provided inside the first housing, the bracket has a through hole sleeved on the transmission tube, and the second housing is provided with an air inlet, an air outlet, and an airflow channel extending from the air inlet to the air outlet.

[0028] When the bracket is in the first position, the air outlet is in fluid communication with the through hole and is spaced apart from the transmission pipe;

[0029] When the bracket moves from the first position to the second position, the air outlet abuts against the transmission pipe.

[0030] In one example, a bracket is provided on the first housing, and the movable element includes a piston rod disposed on the bracket;

[0031] As the piston rod moves from the first position to the second position, it can compress the space of the first liquid storage chamber, thereby facilitating the output of the liquid matrix stored in the first liquid storage chamber through the connector.

[0032] In one example, one end of the piston rod is located in the first liquid reservoir, and the other end of the piston rod passes through the bracket to be exposed outside the bracket;

[0033] When the second housing is assembled onto the outer shell, the second housing can abut against the other end of the piston rod, thereby pushing the piston rod from the first position to the second position.

[0034] In one example, a support is provided on the first housing, and a connector for discharging liquid matrix is ​​defined on the support. The first housing and the support together form the first liquid storage cavity.

[0035] In one example, the movable element defines a portion of the boundary of the first liquid storage cavity, and the movable element is movable toward the first liquid storage cavity, thereby compressing the space of the first liquid storage cavity.

[0036] Another aspect of this application provides an atomizing component, including:

[0037] A first housing, wherein a first liquid storage chamber for storing a liquid matrix is ​​formed inside the first housing, and a connector for discharging the liquid matrix is ​​provided on the first housing;

[0038] A second housing, independent of the first housing, has a second liquid storage chamber formed therein for storing a liquid matrix; the second housing can be connected to the first housing and transfer the liquid matrix to the second liquid storage chamber through the connector.

[0039] An atomizing core is disposed in the second housing and in fluid communication with the second liquid storage chamber. The atomizing core is used to atomize a liquid matrix to generate an aerosol.

[0040] A movable element, disposed on or part of the first housing, defines a portion of the boundary of the first liquid reservoir; and the movable element is configured to be driven to move or deform toward the first liquid reservoir to compress the space of the first liquid reservoir, thereby facilitating the output of the liquid matrix from the connector.

[0041] This application also provides an electronic atomizing device, including a power supply component and the atomizing component.

[0042] This application also provides a liquid storage component for an electronic atomizing device, comprising:

[0043] A first housing, wherein the first housing has a first liquid storage chamber for storing a liquid matrix;

[0044] A support is connected to the first housing, and the support defines a connector for discharging a liquid matrix;

[0045] The bracket can be driven to move relative to the first housing from a first position to a second position, and during the movement, the bracket compresses the space of the first liquid storage chamber, thereby facilitating the output of the liquid matrix stored in the first liquid storage chamber through the connector.

[0046] The above-mentioned liquid storage components, atomizing components, and electronic atomizing devices move from the first position to the second position via movable parts, thereby compressing the space of the first liquid storage chamber and allowing the liquid matrix stored in the first liquid storage chamber to flow to the second liquid storage chamber through the connecting channel. In this way, the liquid matrix can be quickly guided to the atomizing core, reducing the user's waiting time, ensuring that the user can get the desired flavor, and improving the user experience.

[0062] To facilitate understanding of this application, a more detailed description is provided below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. It should be noted that when an element is described as being "fixed to" another element, it can be directly on the other element, or one or more intermediate elements may exist between them. When an element is described as being "connected" to another element, it can be directly connected to the other element, or one or more intermediate elements may exist between them. The terms "upper," "lower," "left," "right," "inner," "outer," and similar expressions used in this specification are for illustrative purposes only.

[0063] Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used in this specification have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this application belongs. The terminology used in this specification is for the purpose of describing particular embodiments only and is not intended to limit the scope of this application. The term "and / or" as used in this specification includes any and all combinations of one or more of the associated listed items.

[0064] One embodiment of this application provides an electronic atomizing device, which can be found in [reference needed]. Figure 1 As shown, the device includes an atomizing component 10 that stores a liquid matrix and atomizes it to generate an aerosol, and a power supply component 20 that supplies power to the atomizing component 10. The atomizing component 10 and the power supply component 20 are detachably connected.

[0065] exist Figure 1 In the example shown, the power supply assembly 20 includes a receiving cavity 21 disposed at one end along its length for receiving and accommodating at least a portion of the atomizing assembly 10, and an electrical contact 22 at least partially exposed within the receiving cavity 21, for forming an electrical connection with the atomizing assembly 10 and thus supplying power to the atomizing assembly 10 when at least a portion of the atomizing assembly 10 is received or accommodated within the power supply assembly 20. An electrical contact 11 is disposed on the end of the atomizing assembly 10 opposite to the power supply assembly 20 along its length, so that when at least a portion of the atomizing assembly 10 is received within the receiving cavity 21, the electrical contact 11 forms an electrical connection by contacting and abutting against the electrical contact 22.

[0066] exist Figure 1In the example shown, a seal 23 is provided inside the power supply assembly 20, and the seal 23 divides at least a portion of the internal space of the power supply assembly 20 to form the receiving cavity 21. The seal 23 is configured to extend in a direction perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of the power supply assembly 20, and is preferably made of a flexible material such as silicone, thereby preventing the liquid matrix that seeps from the atomizing assembly 10 into the receiving cavity 21 from flowing into components such as the control unit 24 and the sensor 25 inside the power supply assembly 20.

[0067] exist Figure 1 In the example shown, the power supply assembly 20 also includes a battery cell 26 for power supply located at the other end of its length away from the receiving cavity 21; and a control unit 24 disposed between the battery cell 26 and the receiving cavity 21, the control unit 24 being operable to guide current between the battery cell 26 and the electrical contact 22. In use, the power supply assembly 20 includes a sensor 25 for sensing the suction airflow generated when the atomizing assembly 10 is inhaled, thereby enabling the control unit 24 to control the battery cell 26 to supply power to the atomizing assembly 10 based on the detection signal from the sensor 25.

[0068] exist Figure 1 In the example shown, the power supply assembly 20 has a charging interface 27 at the other end away from the receiving cavity 21 for charging the battery cell 26.

[0069] Understandably, in other examples, it is also feasible to use a disposable cell for cell 26.

[0070] It is understandable that in other examples, it is also feasible for the atomizing component 10 and the power supply component 20 to be non-detachably connected, i.e., formed as a single unit.

[0071] like Figures 2-7 As shown, an embodiment of this application provides an atomizing component 10 including a liquid storage component 120 and an atomizing component 140.

[0072] The liquid storage component 120 includes a first housing, which may be composed of multiple components, such as an outer shell 121, which, in the example shown in the figure, is generally tubular in shape.

[0073] Furthermore, a bracket 122 is also provided inside the first housing.

[0074] A first liquid storage cavity 123 for storing a liquid matrix is ​​formed within the first housing. In a specific implementation, the first liquid storage cavity 123 can be formed by the outer shell 121 and the support 122, that is, the outer shell 121 and the support 122 define the boundary of the first liquid storage cavity 123. In a further implementation, a sealing element 124 is also provided inside the outer shell 121, and at least a portion of the sealing element 124 is sandwiched between the outer shell 121 and the support 122, thereby sealing the first liquid storage cavity 123 and reducing the risk of leakage of the liquid matrix from the gap between the outer shell 121 and the support 122.

[0075] Generally, the volume of the liquid matrix stored in the first reservoir 123 is between 0.1 ml and 10 ml, for example, 0.5 ml, 0.8 ml, 1 ml, 1.5 ml, 2 ml, 3 ml, 4 ml, 5 ml, 6 ml, 8 ml, etc. The liquid matrix can be a liquid containing tobacco substances including volatile tobacco aroma components, or a liquid containing non-tobacco substances. For example, the liquid matrix may include water, solvents, ethanol, plant extracts, flavorings, fragrances, or vitamin mixtures. Flavorings may include menthol, peppermint, spearmint oil, various fruit flavoring components, etc., but are not limited to these. Fragrances may include ingredients capable of providing the user with a variety of aromas or flavors. Vitamin mixtures may be substances containing at least one of vitamin A, vitamin B, vitamin C, and vitamin E, but are not limited to these. Additionally, the liquid matrix may include aerosol forming agents such as glycerin and propylene glycol.

[0076] In one example, the top of the first housing is provided with a mouthpiece 125, which is used for the user to inhale the aerosol generated by atomization. The mouthpiece 125 can be integrally formed with the first housing, for example, formed from a portion of the outer shell 121; the mouthpiece 125 and the first housing can also be formed separately.

[0077] In one example, a transfer tube 126 is also provided inside the first housing. The transfer tube 126 can be integrally formed with the first housing, for example, it can be disposed inside the outer shell 121 and molded together with the outer shell 121; the transfer tube 126 and the first housing can also be formed separately. One end of the transfer tube 126 is in fluid communication with the suction nozzle 125, and the other end of the transfer tube 126 is inserted into the through hole 122a on the support 122, that is, the through hole 122a is fitted on the transfer tube 126 and communicates with the outside of the support 122. In a further embodiment, the aforementioned sealing member 124 can be partially sandwiched between the outer wall of the transfer tube 126 and the inner wall of the through hole 122a, thereby reducing the risk of liquid matrix leakage from the gap between the outer wall of the transfer tube 126 and the inner wall of the through hole 122a.

[0078] In one example, the support 122 is also provided with a connector 122b, which has a through hole 122b1 extending through both ends. One end of the connector 122b is in fluid communication with the first liquid storage chamber 123, and the other end of the connector 122b extends away from the first liquid storage chamber 123 or toward the atomizing component 140. In a preferred embodiment, the support 122 is provided with two connectors 122b, which are arranged on both sides of the through hole 122a; it should be noted that the number of connectors 122b is not limited to two.

[0079] In one example, the connector 122b has an inclined portion 122b2 extending from the other end of the connector 122b to the sidewall of the connector 122b, the inclined portion 122b2 being constructed such that the other end of the connector 122b is needle-shaped. In a further embodiment, the inclined portion 122b2 is also provided with a ventilation groove 122b3 communicating with the through hole 122b1 inside the connector 122b.

[0080] In one example, the first housing, such as the outer shell 121, is further provided with a first snap-fit ​​hole 121a, a second snap-fit ​​hole 121b, and a third snap-fit ​​hole 121c at intervals. The first snap-fit ​​hole 121a, the second snap-fit ​​hole 121b, and the third snap-fit ​​hole 121c are arranged along the longitudinal direction of the outer shell 121. The first snap-fit ​​hole 121a is located between the second snap-fit ​​hole 121b and the third snap-fit ​​hole 121c, and the third snap-fit ​​hole 121c is located close to the atomizing component 140.

[0081] In one example, a first snap fastener 122c is also provided on the bracket 122.

[0082] The atomizing component 140 includes a second housing, which may be composed of multiple components, such as a main housing 141 and a base 142 disposed at the bottom of the main housing 141. The main housing 141 and the base 142 may be connected by a snap-fit ​​method.

[0083] A second liquid storage chamber 143 for storing a liquid matrix is ​​formed within the second housing. In a specific embodiment, the second liquid storage chamber 143 can be formed by the main housing 141 and the base 142. In a further embodiment, a sealing element 144 is also provided within the second housing, with at least a portion of the sealing element 144 sandwiched between the main housing 141 and the base 142, thereby sealing the second liquid storage chamber 143 and reducing the risk of leakage of the liquid matrix from the gap between the main housing 141 and the base 142.

[0084] Generally, the volume of the liquid matrix stored in the second reservoir 143 is between 0.1 ml and 2 ml, for example, 0.5 ml, 0.8 ml, 1 ml, 1.5 ml, etc. Similarly, the liquid matrix can be a liquid containing tobacco substances including volatile tobacco aroma components, or a liquid containing non-tobacco substances. For example, the liquid matrix may include water, solvents, ethanol, plant extracts, flavorings, fragrances, or vitamin mixtures. Flavorings may include menthol, peppermint, spearmint oil, various fruit flavorings, etc., but are not limited to these. Fragrances may include ingredients capable of providing the user with a variety of aromas or flavors. Vitamin mixtures may be substances containing at least one of vitamin A, vitamin B, vitamin C, and vitamin E, but are not limited to these. Additionally, the liquid matrix may include aerosol forming agents such as glycerin and propylene glycol.

[0085] It should be noted that the liquid matrix stored in the second reservoir 143 may have different or the same composition or properties as the liquid matrix stored in the first reservoir 123. For example, in some examples, the liquid matrix stored in the second reservoir 143 may have different compositions or concentrations than the liquid matrix stored in the first reservoir 123. In other examples, the liquid matrix stored in the second reservoir 143 may have the exact same composition as the liquid matrix stored in the first reservoir 123. In still other examples, the liquid matrix stored in the second reservoir 143 may be part of a liquid formulation, while the liquid matrix stored in the first reservoir 123 may be another part of the same liquid formulation. In yet another example, the liquid matrix stored in the first reservoir 123 may be introduced into the second reservoir 143 as a supplementary source to the liquid matrix stored in the second reservoir 143, thereby increasing the number of puffs in the electronic atomizing device.

[0086] In a further embodiment, the second liquid storage chamber 143 is further provided with a liquid storage medium 145, which may be made of fibrous or porous material. The second liquid storage chamber 143 may be filled with fiber cotton. The liquid storage medium 145 is used to adsorb and retain the liquid matrix and supply the liquid matrix to the atomizing core 146. After liquid injection, when the liquid storage medium 145 reaches saturation, the content of the liquid matrix in the liquid storage medium 145 is between 0.1 ml and 2 ml, for example, 0.5 ml, 0.8 ml, 1 ml, 1.5 ml, or 2 ml, etc. There is a certain space between the upper end face of the liquid storage medium 145 and the top of the second liquid storage chamber 143, which is occupied by air.

[0087] The second housing also contains an atomizing core 146, which is used to atomize the liquid matrix to generate an aerosol.

[0088] In one example, the atomizing core 146 includes a liquid delivery unit and a heating element.

[0089] The liquid transfer unit can transfer the liquid matrix in the second liquid storage chamber 143 to the heating element. For example, the liquid transfer unit can be a porous material such as cotton fiber, ceramic fiber, glass fiber, or porous ceramic or porous glass, but is not limited thereto. The liquid transfer unit can be constructed into a tubular structure, a plate structure, or other regular or irregular shapes.

[0090] The heating element is used to heat an atomized liquid matrix to generate an aerosol. The heating element can be a metal wire, conductive trace, metal plate, ceramic heater, etc., but is not limited to these. Alternatively, the heating element can be constructed from a conductive heating wire such as nickel-chromium wire. The heating element can be made of a material with suitable temperature coefficient of resistance characteristics, such as stainless steel 316, titanium, nickel, nickel-chromium alloys, etc. The heating element can be configured as a structure wound around a liquid transfer unit. The heating element can be heated by an electric current supply and transfers heat to the liquid matrix in contact with the heating element to heat the liquid matrix, thereby generating an aerosol.

[0091] It should be noted that the atomizing core 146 is not limited to the embodiments described above. In other examples, the heating element may also be a sensor that can be penetrated by a changing magnetic field to generate heat, or an infrared heater that radiates infrared rays. In another example, an ultrasonic atomizer may be used instead.

[0092] In one example, the main housing 141 has a through hole 141a, the base 142 has a through hole 142a, and the second housing also has a connecting pipe 147. One end of the connecting pipe 147 is in fluid communication with the through hole 141a, for example, one end of the connecting pipe 147 is inserted into the through hole 141a to achieve fluid communication with the through hole 141a; the other end of the connecting pipe 147 is in fluid communication with the through hole 142a, for example, the other end of the connecting pipe 147 is inserted into the through hole 144a of the seal 144, and is in fluid communication with the through hole 142a through the through hole 144a. The atomizing core 146 is disposed in the connecting pipe 147 and is in fluid communication with the second liquid storage chamber 143 through a liquid passage hole (not shown) on the connecting pipe 147.

[0093] In the above example, external air can flow in through through hole 142a, pass through through hole 144a, and then flow into the connecting pipe 147. After mixing with the aerosol generated by the atomizing core 146, it flows out through through hole 141a. That is, through hole 142a defines the air inlet, through hole 141a defines the air outlet, and through holes 142a, 144a, connecting pipe 147, and 141a together define an airflow channel.

[0094] In one example, the second housing, such as the main housing 141, is provided with a connector 141b. One end of the connector 141b is in fluid communication with the second liquid storage chamber 143, and the other end of the connector 141b is in fluid communication with the outside of the atomizing component 140. The number of connectors 141b is the same as the number of connectors 122b. In the example shown in the figure, there are two connectors 141b, which are arranged on both sides of the through hole 141a.

[0095] In one example, the second housing, such as the main housing 141, is also provided with a seal 148. The seal 148 is arranged on the top of the main housing 141 and has a through hole corresponding to the insertion interface 141b. In a preferred embodiment, a portion of the seal 148 extends into the insertion interface 141b.

[0096] In one example, a second snap fastener 141c is also provided on the second housing, such as the main housing 141.

[0097] In the above example, the second housing is independent of the first housing, or the atomizing component 140 is independent of the liquid storage component 120. For example, when the product is in a packaged or unused state, the liquid storage component 120 and the atomizing component 140 are separate. When in use, the user can assemble or attach the liquid storage component 120 to the atomizing component 140. When the product is in a packaged or unused state, the second liquid storage chamber 143 in the atomizing component 140 may or may not store a liquid matrix.

[0098] The first housing can be connected to the second housing, establishing a connection channel between the first liquid storage chamber 123 and the second liquid storage chamber 143 for communication. Specifically, the connector 122b can be inserted into the connector 141b to establish the connection channel; in this example, the connection channel is defined by the through hole 122b1. Thus, the liquid matrix stored in the first liquid storage chamber 123 flows into the second liquid storage chamber 143 through the connection channel, and then flows into the atomizing core 146. When the connector 122b is inserted into the connector 141b, the other end of the connector 122b is inserted into the second liquid storage chamber 143 through the connector 141b, thereby establishing fluid communication with the second liquid storage chamber 143.

[0099] In a further implementation, when the other end of connector 122b is inserted into the second liquid storage chamber 143 through the insertion interface 141b, the other end of connector 122b is inserted into the liquid storage medium 145. This means that when connector 122b is inserted into the liquid storage medium 145, the liquid outlet is closer to the atomizing core. During initial injection, the liquid matrix is ​​distributed within the liquid storage medium 145 near the atomizing core, which helps to shorten the time it takes for the liquid matrix to be transferred to the atomizing core. Thus, when the liquid matrix stored in the first liquid storage chamber 123 flows into the second liquid storage chamber 143 through the connecting channel, it is first absorbed by the liquid storage medium 145 and then by the atomizing core 146, thereby preventing excessive or rapid transfer of the liquid matrix to the atomizing core 146 (see reference). Figure 4 (As shown in S1).

[0100] In some embodiments, such as Figure 10 As shown, the liquid storage medium 145, such as fiber cotton, has pre-made holes or grooves 145a. Through these holes or grooves 145a, the resistance of the connector 122b when inserting into the liquid storage medium 145 can be reduced. During the insertion of the connector 122b into the holes or grooves 145a, the liquid matrix can be continuously input, which is beneficial to the uniform distribution of the liquid matrix in the longitudinal direction of the liquid storage medium 145.

[0101] In some embodiments, when the other end of the connector 122b is inserted into the second liquid storage chamber 143 through the insertion interface 141b, it is also feasible for the other end of the connector 122b to be positioned near the upper end of the liquid storage medium 145 and not inserted into the liquid storage medium 145.

[0102] In a further implementation, in order for the liquid matrix to be quickly absorbed by the atomizing core 146, the distance between the connector 122b and the connecting tube 147 should not be too far; that is, the distance between the portion of the connector 122b located in the second liquid storage chamber 143 and the connecting tube 147 should be as small as possible (see reference). Figure 4 (as shown in d); correspondingly, the outer surface of the inclined portion 122b2 is oriented towards the atomizing core 146. Generally, the distance d between the connector 122b and the connecting tube 147 is between 0.5mm and 3mm, or between 1mm and 3mm, or between 1.5mm and 3mm, or between 1.5mm and 2.5mm.

[0103] In a further implementation, the ventilation groove 122b3 is positioned near the top of the second liquid storage chamber 143 or near the upper end face of the liquid storage medium 145. This minimizes the path of the air entering the second liquid storage chamber 143 (the space between the upper end face of the liquid storage medium 145 and the top of the second liquid storage chamber 143) through the ventilation groove 122b3 when air is introduced into the first liquid storage chamber 123 via the connecting channel. This ensures smooth ventilation between the first and second liquid storage chambers 123 and also effectively locks in the liquid matrix within the liquid storage medium 145.

[0104] As mentioned above, when the product is in a packaged or unused state, the second liquid storage chamber 143 in the atomizing component 140 generally does not store liquid matrix to facilitate product transportation; or the liquid matrix stored in the second liquid storage chamber 143 is different from the liquid matrix stored in the first liquid storage chamber 123 to allow users to inhale aerosols with different flavors.

[0105] In one example, the bracket 122 is configured to be movably disposed on the housing 121 to form a movable element.

[0106] Specifically, the bracket 122 has a first position relative to the housing 121 (e.g., Figure 8 (As shown); when the bracket 122 is in the first position, the first snap fastener 122c snaps into the first snap hole 121a. Through the cooperation of the first snap fastener 122c and the first snap hole 121a, on the one hand, it ensures that the bracket 122 is kept in the first position, and on the other hand, when the other end of the connector 122b is inserted into the second liquid storage chamber 143 through the insertion interface 141b, it ensures that the other end of the connector 122b can be inserted into the liquid storage medium 145.

[0107] The bracket 122 has a second position relative to the housing 121 (e.g.) Figure 9 (As shown); when the bracket 122 is in the second position, the first latch 122c engages with the second latch hole 121b. The engagement of the first latch 122c with the second latch hole 121b ensures that the bracket 122 remains in the second position.

[0108] The support 122 can move from the first position to the second position. When the support 122 moves from the first position to the second position, the support 122 compresses the space of the first liquid storage chamber 123, that is, reduces the volume of the first liquid storage chamber 123, so that the liquid matrix stored in the first liquid storage chamber 123 can quickly flow to the second liquid storage chamber 143 through the connecting channel, reducing the user's waiting time, ensuring that the user can draw the desired taste, and improving the user experience.

[0109] In one example, the second housing can be fitted onto the outer casing 121, such as Figures 7-8 As shown, when the second housing is assembled onto the outer casing 121, the second snap-fit ​​141c engages with the third snap-fit ​​hole 121c. When the second housing is assembled onto the outer casing 121, the second housing abuts against the bracket 122, thereby enabling the bracket 122 to move from the first position to the second position.

[0110] In one example, such as Figures 7-8 As shown, when the support 122 is in the first position, the air outlet defined by the through hole 141a is in fluid communication with the through hole 122a and is spaced apart from the transmission pipe 126; when the support 122 moves from the first position to the second position, the through hole 141a defining the air outlet abuts against the transmission pipe 126. In this way, the airflow channels in the first housing and the second housing are connected, allowing external air to flow from the nozzle 125 into the user's mouth through the connected airflow channels (see reference). Figures 3-4 (S2 shown). On the other hand, the through hole 141a that forms the air outlet abuts against the transmission pipe 126 to ensure that the bracket 122 can be held in the second position.

[0111] It is understandable that when the bracket 122 moves from the first position to the second position, the seal 124 is also able to move relative to the first housing due to the structure of the seal 124.

[0112] Figures 11-14 This is an atomizing component 10 provided in another embodiment of this application.

[0113] and Figures 2-10 The examples are different, in Figures 11-14 In the example, the bracket 122 is stationary on the housing 121; when the bracket 122 is assembled onto the housing 121, a snap-fit ​​connection is achieved through the engagement of the first snap-fit ​​buckle 122c and the first snap-fit ​​hole 121a. It is understandable that in... Figures 11-14 In the example, the first housing does not have a second snap-fit ​​hole 121b.

[0114] and Figures 2-10 The examples are different, in Figures 11-14 In the example, the movable element includes a piston rod 127 disposed on the bracket 122. The piston rod 127 is capable of moving from a first position (e.g., Figure 12 (As shown) Move to the second position (e.g.) Figure 13(As shown). When the piston rod 127 moves from the first position to the second position, the piston rod 127 compresses the space of the first liquid storage chamber 123, that is, reduces the volume of the first liquid storage chamber 123, so that the liquid matrix stored in the first liquid storage chamber 123 can quickly flow to the second liquid storage chamber 143 through the connecting channel, thereby reducing the user's waiting time, ensuring that the user can draw the desired taste, and improving the user experience.

[0115] exist Figures 11-14 In the example, when the piston rod is in the first position, one end of the piston rod 127 is located in the first reservoir 123, and the other end of the piston rod 127 passes through the bracket 122 and is exposed outside the bracket 122. When the second housing is assembled onto the outer casing 121, the second housing can abut against the other end of the piston rod 127, thereby pushing the piston rod 127 from the first position to the second position.

[0116] and Figures 2-10 Similarly, when the second housing is assembled onto the outer casing 121, the second snap-fit ​​141c engages with the third snap-fit ​​hole 121c.

[0117] and Figures 2-10 Similarly, when the second housing pushes the piston rod 127 from the first position to the second position, the through hole 141a that defines the air outlet abuts against the transmission pipe 126, thereby ensuring that the second housing pushes the piston rod 127 into place.

[0118] It should be noted that, in Figures 11-14 In the examples, other parts not described or related to Figures 2-10 For any example with the same number, please refer to [the example]. Figures 2-10 Example content.

[0119] It should be noted that, in Figures 2-14 In one example, connector 122b is disposed on the first housing, while interface 141b is disposed on the second housing. In other examples, it is also possible to reverse the arrangement of connector 122b and interface 141b; that is, connector 122b is disposed on the second housing, while interface 141b is disposed on the first housing.

[0120] It should be noted that, in Figures 2-14 In the examples, the moving parts are all unidirectional, that is, they move from the first position to the second position along the longitudinal direction of the first housing. In other examples, it is also possible for the moving parts to be configured to move back and forth.

[0121] It should be noted that movable parts are not limited to Figures 2-14The scenario described in the example. In other examples, the reservoir has a suction nozzle for the user to aspirate, and the movable element can be the suction nozzle movably connected to a first housing, which encloses or defines a first reservoir cavity for storing a liquid matrix. In operation, the suction nozzle can be pushed to move relative to the first housing, thereby compressing the space inside the first reservoir cavity and facilitating the output of the liquid matrix from the connector. In other examples, the movable element can be part of the first housing, for example, the first housing is formed by joining at least two relatively movable parts that enclose the first reservoir cavity, one of which can move relative to the other in operation, thereby compressing the space within the first reservoir cavity. In still other examples, the movable element can be part of the first housing, a portion of which is flexible and deformable, and thus deformable in operation to compress the space within the first reservoir cavity.

These embodiments are not intended to impose additional limitations on the content of this application; their purpose is to provide a more thorough and comprehensive understanding of the disclosure of this application.
