Description

Technical Field

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

[0002] An aerosol generating device is a device capable of atomizing aerosol formulations to generate aerosols. As an example, an aerosol generating device exists, comprising a power supply electrode, a mouthpiece module, and an atomizing module having multiple atomizers. The atomizing module is configured to rotate relative to the power supply electrode to select an atomizer electrically connected to the power supply electrode, while the mouthpiece module is also configured to rotate relative to the atomizing module to select an atomizer connected to the mouthpiece module.

[0003] However, when installing the nozzle module, it needs to be aligned so that it can rotate synchronously with the power supply electrode relative to the atomizing module. This results in low installation efficiency. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this application is to provide an aerosol generating device that eliminates the need for alignment operations when assembling the nozzle module.

[0005] At least one embodiment of this application provides an aerosol generating apparatus, and the aerosol generating apparatus includes;

[0006] The nozzle module includes a first connector, an air intake, and an air guide channel communicating with the air intake;

[0007] An atomizing module includes multiple atomizing cores and multiple storage chambers for storing an aerosol generation matrix. Each storage chamber is correspondingly connected to at least one of the atomizing cores to provide the aerosol generation matrix for the atomizing cores to atomize and generate aerosols. The air guiding channel is used to guide the aerosols to the air intake.

[0008] A power supply module includes a power supply electrode and a second connector, the power supply module being configured to rotate relative to the atomizing module; the second connector is connected to the first connector, thereby holding the mouthpiece module on one side of the atomizing module.

[0009] Wherein, an interference structure is provided on the first connector and / or the second connector, and the connection between the first connector and the second connector has an unlocked state and a locked state, and the first connector and the second connector remain connected in both the unlocked state and the locked state;

[0010] The first connector and the second connector can maintain relative rotation in the unlocked state, and the first connector and the second connector can restrict their rotation in the locked state through the interference structure, thereby enabling the power supply electrode and the air intake or the air guide channel to rotate synchronously relative to the atomizing module.

[0011] As an example, a first magnetic element is provided on the first connector, and a second magnetic element is provided on the second connector. The first connector and the second connector are connected by the magnetic attraction of the first magnetic element and the second magnetic element.

[0012] As an example, the power supply module rotates relative to the atomizing module about the central axis of the first magnetic element or the second magnetic element.

[0013] As an example, when the first connector and the second connector are in a locked state, the power supply electrode is electrically connected to one of the atomizing cores, and the atomizing core is simultaneously connected to the air guide channel.

[0014] As an example, when the first connector and the second connector are in an unlocked state, there is a first gap between the air intake and the atomizing module; when the first connector and the second connector are in a locked state, there is a second gap between the air intake and the atomizing module, and the first gap is greater than the second gap.

[0015] As an example, at least a portion of the second connector passes through the atomizing module, which is rotatable about the central axis of the second connector.

[0016] As an example, the interference structure includes a first insertion groove and a first insertion portion, wherein one of the first connector and the second connector includes the first insertion groove and the other includes the first insertion portion;

[0017] Furthermore, when the first connector and the second connector are in an unlocked state, the first insertion part is not inserted into the first insertion slot, and when the first connector and the second connector are in a locked state, the first insertion part is inserted into the first insertion slot.

[0018] As an example, the first insertion slot and / or the first insertion part is a non-centrosymmetric structure.

[0019] As an example, one of the first connector and the second connector is provided with a tooth, and the other is provided with a groove. When the first insertion part is inserted into the first insertion groove, the tooth is located in the groove, causing the first connector to engage with the second connector; and / or

[0020] Part of the wall of the first insertion slot is a planar wall, and part of the outer wall of the first insertion part is a planar sidewall. When the first insertion part is inserted into the first insertion slot, the planar sidewall is positioned facing the planar wall.

[0021] As an example, the atomizing module also includes multiple air guide tubes, with each atomizing core corresponding to one air guide tube, so that the air guide tube can guide the aerosol generated by the atomized aerosol matrix of the corresponding atomizing core to the air guide channel.

[0022] As an example, the nozzle module includes a first part and a second part, the first part including the air intake, and the first part being configured to maintain a static correspondence with the atomizing module;

[0023] The second part includes the air guide channel and the first connector. The number of air guide channels is less than the number of air guide tubes. The second part is rotatably connected to the first part, so that the power supply electrode and the second part can rotate synchronously relative to the atomizing module and the air inlet to select the air guide tube that communicates with the air guide channel.

[0024] As an example, the nozzle module includes a first part and a second part. The first part includes the first connector and the air inlet. The second part has multiple air channels that are connected to multiple air ducts in a one-to-one correspondence. The first part is configured to be rotatably connected to the second part so that the air channel connected to the air inlet can be selected by rotation.

[0025] One of the atomizing module and the second part is provided with a second insertion slot, and the other includes a second insertion part;

[0026] When the first connector and the second connector are locked, at least a portion of the second insertion part is inserted into the second insertion slot, so that the power supply electrode and the first part can rotate synchronously relative to the atomizing module and the second part.

[0027] As an example, when the first connector and the second connector are in an unlocked state, at least a portion of the second insertion part is inserted into the second insertion slot.

[0028] As an example, the second part is provided with a through hole, at least a portion of the first connector is disposed in the through hole, and the first connector is provided with an anti-detachment part, and at least a portion of the second part is rotatably disposed between the anti-detachment part and the air inlet.

[0029] As an example, the nozzle module is removably connected to the power supply module, and when the nozzle module is connected to the power supply module, a receiving space is created between the two, the receiving space being used to removably accommodate the atomizing module, the atomizing module being configured to be non-removably held in the receiving space when the nozzle module is connected to the power supply module.

[0030] As an example, the power supply module also includes a first housing with an internal receiving space, the first housing having an assembly port, and the atomizing module being configured to be installed into and removed from the receiving space through the assembly port;

[0031] The nozzle module is removably connected to the power supply module, and the nozzle module blocks the assembly port when connected to the power supply module.

[0032] As an example, when the atomizing module is located in the receiving space, the atomizing module and the first housing interfere with each other in the lateral direction, so that the atomizing module and the first housing can rotate synchronously relative to the second connector and the power supply electrode.

[0033] As an example, the power supply module further includes a first bracket and a connecting post extending longitudinally in the receiving space, the power supply electrodes being held on the first bracket, and the connecting post connecting the first bracket and the second connector;

[0034] When the atomizing module is located in the receiving space, at least a portion of the connecting post is rotatably disposed inside the atomizing module.

[0035] As an example, the power supply module further includes a second bracket rotatably connected to the first bracket and a hollow tube connected to the second bracket and extending longitudinally in the receiving space, the connecting post being rotatably connected to the second connector through the hollow tube;

[0036] When the atomizing module is located in the receiving space, the atomizing module and the second support interfere with each other in the lateral direction, so that the atomizing module, the second support and the hollow tube can rotate synchronously with the connecting column and the power supply electrode;

[0037] The hollow tube is disposed between the first bracket and the second connector, and the hollow tube is configured to block the second connector and the first bracket to prevent the connecting post from exiting the hollow tube.

[0038] The aerosol generating device provided in the above embodiments includes a nozzle module, a power supply module, and an atomizing module. The nozzle module includes a first connector, and the power supply module includes a second connector. An interference structure is provided on the first connector and / or the second connector, and the connection between the first connector and the second connector has an unlocked state and a locked state. The first connector and the second connector remain connected in both the unlocked and locked states. Furthermore, the first connector and the second connector can maintain relative rotation in the unlocked state, and the rotation between them is restricted by the interference structure in the locked state. This allows the power supply electrode to rotate synchronously relative to the atomizing module with respect to the air intake or air guide channel. Therefore, the nozzle module can be arbitrarily connected to the power supply module or the atomizing module. By rotating the first connector and the second connector relative to each other, the first connector and the second connector automatically change from an unlocked state to a locked state. This allows the power supply electrode of the power supply module to rotate synchronously relative to the atomizing module with respect to the air intake or air guide channel of the nozzle module, which helps improve assembly efficiency.

[0057] Please refer to Figures 1-3 This application provides an aerosol generating device 100, which includes an atomizing module 1, a power supply module 2, and a nozzle module 3.

[0058] The suction module 3 includes an air inlet 311 and an air passage 321 communicating with the air inlet 311. The suction module 3 is configured to be held in the mouth, and when held in the mouth, the air inlet 311 is oriented toward the user's oral cavity.

[0059] The atomizing module 1 includes multiple atomizing cores 11 and multiple storage cavities 12 for storing aerosol generation matrix. Each storage cavity 12 is connected to at least one atomizing core 11 to provide aerosol generation matrix for the corresponding atomizing core 11 to atomize and generate aerosol. The air guide channel 321 is used to guide the aerosol to the air intake port 311, and then the aerosol is discharged through the air intake port 311.

[0060] In some embodiments, the aerosol-generating matrix includes nicotine. Nicotine may include nicotine or nicotine salts. Nicotine has a neurostimulatory effect and is used to provide the user with the pleasure of inhalation. The first aerosol generated by the first aerosol-generating matrix contains nicotine.

[0061] In some embodiments, the aerosol generating matrix includes flavorings used to stimulate the user's sense of smell to provide aroma or to stimulate the user's sense of taste to adjust flavor.

[0062] Flavoring agents may include cooling agents. Cooling agents make the aerosol refreshing and cool, which helps to enhance the throat-soothing effect. Cooling agents include, but are not limited to, at least one of: N,2,3-trimethyl-2-isopropylbutyramide (WS-23), menthol, peppermint oil, and N-ethyl-p-menthyl-3-carboxamide (WS-3).

[0063] Flavoring agents may include sweeteners. Sweeteners enhance the sweetness of the aerosol, improving its flavor. Sweeteners include, but are not limited to, N-[N-(3,3-dimethylbutyl)]-L-α-aspartic-L-phenylalanine 1-methyl ester (also known as neotame). Sweeteners may also include, but are not limited to, one or more of the following: sucralose, steviol glycosides, neotame, acesulfame potassium, aspartame, glycyrrhizin, sodium saccharin, cyclamate, and monk fruit extract.

[0064] Flavoring agents may include tobacco extracts. The main components of tobacco extracts include tobacco cellulose, tobacco leaf protein, and other substances with tobacco aroma, but do not include nicotine or similar substances. Tobacco extracts can enhance the similarity between the smoke and traditional cigarette smoke, giving the aerosol a traditional cigarette flavor.

[0065] Flavoring agents may include flavorings. Flavorings can reduce the irritation caused by tobacco extracts. For example, flavorings may include at least one of 2-acetylpyrazine, ethyl maltol, and methyl dihydrojasmonate. Flavorings may also include throat-soothing ingredients. Throat-soothing ingredients include, but are not limited to, at least one of eugenol, clove leaf oil, clove bud oil, Peruvian balsam oil, fenugreek tincture, star anise oil, vanilla bean tincture, tea polyphenols, lemon oil, and propylene glycol.

[0066] Aerosol-generating matrices can include both nicotine and flavorings. Aerosol-generating matrices can also include multiple flavorings.

[0067] In some embodiments, at least two storage cavities 12 are used to store different aerosol generating matrices, thereby enabling the atomizing module 1 to produce at least two different flavors or aromas of aerosol. In some embodiments, at least two storage cavities 12 are used to store the same aerosol generating matrix.

[0068] In some embodiments, the aerosol-generating matrix includes a solid matrix that is solid at room temperature. The solid matrix may comprise a solid containing tobacco-containing substances, including volatile tobacco aroma components. The solid matrix may also comprise a solid containing non-tobacco substances.

[0069] In other embodiments, the aerosol generating matrix also includes a paste-like matrix that is in the form of a paste at room temperature.

[0070] In some embodiments, the atomizing module 1 includes an atomizing core 12 for atomizing a liquid matrix to generate an aerosol.

[0071] The atomizing core 12 may include a liquid-absorbing element and a heating element, with the heating element disposed on the liquid-absorbing element. The liquid-absorbing element may be a porous material used to guide the aerosol-generating matrix into the atomization range of the heating element. The heating element is used to heat the atomized aerosol-generating matrix, thereby generating an aerosol. The porous material may be a fiber, such as cotton fiber, polypropylene fiber, polyester fiber, or nylon fiber. The porous material may also be porous ceramic or porous metal; this application does not limit the structure and composition of the porous material.

[0072] Of course, the atomizing core 12 may also include an ultrasonic element capable of generating ultrasonic waves, which enables the atomizing core 12 to atomize the liquid matrix into an aerosol using ultrasonic waves. The atomizing core may also include other elements capable of atomizing the aerosol-generating matrix into an aerosol.

[0073] In some embodiments, the atomizing module 1 includes an atomizing core 12, which includes a heating element for heating a fixed substrate. The heating element releases heat to cause the solid substrate to produce volatile substances, thereby generating an aerosol. The heating element for heating the fixed substrate may include at least one of an external heating element, an internal heating element, and an air heating element. As used herein, an "external heating element" refers to a heating element that provides heat or radiates infrared radiation from the outside of the solid substrate to heat the fixed substrate. An "internal heating element" refers to a heating element that provides heat or radiates infrared radiation from the inside of the solid substrate to heat the fixed substrate. An "air heating element" refers to a heating element disposed upstream of the fixed substrate along the airflow direction for heating air, which then flows into the fixed substrate to heat the solid substrate.

[0074] In one embodiment, the atomizing module 1 further includes a plurality of air guide tubes 13, with each atomizing core 11 corresponding to one air guide tube 13, so that the air guide tube 13 can guide the aerosol generated by the atomizing aerosol matrix of the corresponding atomizing core 11 through the air guide channel 321, and then export it through the air intake 311.

[0075] At least one air guide tube 13 may be provided in each storage cavity 12, and the air guide tube 13 may extend longitudinally in the corresponding storage cavity 12. In some embodiments, at least one atomizing core 11 may be provided in each air guide tube 13, and the atomizing core 11 is in fluid communication with the corresponding storage cavity through the corresponding air guide tube 13.

[0076] In some embodiments, the atomizing module 1 includes a memory 14 and an atomizer 15. The memory 14 and the atomizer 15 can be manufactured independently and stored separately. When the memory 14 and the atomizer 15 are combined, a fluid channel can be established between them, so that the aerosol generating matrix stored in the memory 14 can be transferred to the atomizer 15 and then atomized by the atomizer 15 to generate aerosol.

[0077] The memory 14 includes a first housing 141 and a first partition 142. The first partition 142 is disposed inside the first housing 141 and divides the internal space of the first housing 141 into a plurality of first storage cavities 121 for storing the aerosol generation matrix. Thus, the plurality of first storage cavities 121 are formed between the first housing 141 and the first partition 142, and at least a portion of the boundary of each first storage cavity 121 is defined by the first housing 141 and / or the first partition 142. The aerosol generation matrix can be directly injected into the corresponding first storage cavity 121 for storage. The first housing 141 and the first partition 142 are integrally formed, for example, by integral injection molding, or by insert molding to form an integral structure.

[0078] The atomizer 15 includes a plurality of atomizing cores 11 for atomizing the aerosol generating matrix to generate aerosol. Each first storage chamber 121 has at least one atomizing core 11 connected to it, so that the aerosol generating matrix stored in different first storage chambers 121 can be atomized by different atomizing cores 11 to generate aerosol, or one atomizing core 11 can only atomize the aerosol generating matrix stored in one first storage chamber 121.

[0079] In some embodiments, reference may be made to Figure 2 The atomizer 15 includes a plurality of second storage chambers 122 for storing aerosol generation matrix. Each second storage chamber 122 is connected to at least one atomizing core 11. When the atomizer 15 is connected to the storage unit 1, the plurality of first storage chambers 121 replenish the aerosol generation matrix to the plurality of second storage chambers 122 in a one-to-one correspondence.

[0080] In some embodiments, reference may be made to Figure 2 and Figure 4The atomizer 15 includes a second housing 151 and a second partition 152. The second partition 152 is disposed inside the second housing 151 and divides the internal space of the second housing 151 into a plurality of second storage cavities 122 for storing the aerosol generation matrix. Thus, a plurality of second storage cavities 122 are formed between the second housing 151 and the second partition 152, and at least a portion of the boundary of each second storage cavity 122 is defined by the second housing 151 and / or the second partition 152. The aerosol generation matrix can be directly injected into the corresponding second storage cavity 122 for storage. The second housing 151 and the second partition 152 are integrally formed, for example, by injection molding, or by insert molding to form an integral structure.

[0081] In some embodiments, the atomizing module 1 further includes a liquid storage element 16, which has a large number of pores and is capable of adsorbing a large amount of liquid matrix. The liquid storage element 16 is disposed in the storage cavity 12, and at least partially of the liquid matrix stored in the storage cavity 12 is retained in the liquid storage element 16, thereby preventing the aerosol generation matrix from leaking from the storage cavity 12. The liquid storage element 16 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.

[0082] In some embodiments, the power supply module 2 includes a power supply electrode 21, which is used to be electrically connected to the atomizing module 1. The power supply 22 can output electrical power to the atomizing module 1 through the power supply electrode 21, so that the atomizing module 1 atomizes the aerosol generation matrix to generate aerosol.

[0083] Furthermore, the power supply module 2 includes a power source 22, which may include any suitable battery, such as a lithium battery, a rechargeable battery, or a disposable battery.

[0084] In some embodiments, the number of power supply electrodes 21 is less than the number of atomizing cores 11, so that only one or only part of the atomizing cores 11 can be electrically connected to the power supply electrodes 21, and a power supply path is established between the power supply electrodes 21 and the power source 22.

[0085] Furthermore, the power supply electrode 21 is configured to rotate relative to the atomizing module 1 to select the atomizing core 11 electrically connected to the power supply electrode 21.

[0086] In some embodiments, the air intake 311 is configured to communicate with only one or only a portion of the atomizing cores 11. Further, the air intake 311 or the air passage 321 is configured to be rotatable relative to the atomizing module 1 to select the atomizing core 11 communicating with the air intake 311.

[0087] In some embodiments, reference may be made to Figures 3-8 The nozzle module 3 also includes a first connector 312, and the power supply module 2 also includes a second connector 23. The power supply module 2 is configured to rotate relative to the atomizing module 1. The nozzle module 3 can be held to one side of the atomizing module 1 by connecting the second connector 23 to the first connector 312.

[0088] Furthermore, interference structures are provided on the first connector 312 and / or the second connector 23, and the connection between the first connector 312 and the second connector 23 has an unlocked state and a locked state. The first connector 312 and the second connector 23 can maintain connection in both the unlocked state and the locked state.

[0089] Furthermore, the first connector 312 and the second connector 23 can maintain relative rotation in the unlocked state, and the first connector 312 and the second connector 23 can be restricted from rotating in the locked state by the interference structure, thereby enabling the power supply electrode 21 and the air intake 311 or the air guide channel 321 to rotate synchronously relative to the atomizing module 1.

[0090] Therefore, the nozzle module 3 can be connected to the power supply module 2 or the atomizing module 1 at will. Then, by rotating the first connector 213 and the second connector 23 relative to each other, the first connector 312 and the second connector 23 can be automatically changed from an unlocked state to a locked state. This allows the power supply electrode 21 of the power supply module 2 to rotate synchronously relative to the atomizing module 1 relative to the air intake 311 or the air guide channel 321 of the nozzle module 3, which helps to improve assembly efficiency.

[0091] In some embodiments, a first magnetic element 33 is provided on the first connector 312, and a second magnetic element 24 is provided on the second connector 23. The first connector 312 and the second connector 23 are connected by the magnetic attraction of the first magnetic element 33 and the second magnetic element 24. Furthermore, when the first connector 312 and the second connector 23 are in an unlocked state, the magnetic attraction of the first magnetic element 33 and the second magnetic element 24 allows the first connector 312 and the second connector 23 to maintain a rotatable connection.

[0092] Furthermore, the power supply module 2 rotates relative to the atomizing module 1 about the central axis of the first magnetic element 33 or the second magnetic element 24. This is to prevent the central axis of the nozzle module 1 from shifting during the rotation of the power supply module 2 relative to the atomizing module 1.

[0093] In some embodiments, when the first connector 312 and the second connector 23 are in a locked state, the power supply electrode 21 is electrically connected to one of the atomizing cores 11, and the atomizing core 11 is simultaneously connected to the air guide channel 321 and / or the air inlet 311.

[0094] In some embodiments, at least a portion of the second connector 23 passes through the atomizing module 1, and the atomizing module 1 is rotatable about the central axis of the second connector 23. Thus, the power supply electrode 21 and the nozzle module 3 can be disposed on opposite sides of the atomizing module 1.

[0095] In some embodiments, the interference structure includes a first insertion groove 3121 and a first insertion portion 231. One of the first connector 312 and the second connector 23 is provided with the first insertion groove 3121, and the other includes the first insertion portion 231. When the first connector 312 and the second connector 23 are in an unlocked state, the first insertion portion 231 is not inserted into the first insertion groove 3121, and when the first connector 312 and the second connector 23 are in a locked state, the first insertion portion 231 is inserted into the first insertion groove 3121.

[0096] More specifically, when the first connector 312 and the second connector 23 are in an unlocked state, the first insertion slot 3121 and the first insertion part 231 are not aligned, so the first insertion part 231 is not inserted into the first insertion slot 3121. When the first connector 312 and the second connector 23 are in a locked state, the first insertion slot 3121 and the first insertion part 231 are aligned, so the first insertion part 231 can be inserted into the first insertion slot 3121.

[0097] In some embodiments, the first insertion portion 231 has a non-centrosymmetric structure or a non-centrosymmetric shape, so that after rotating the first insertion portion 231 about a certain point by 180°, it cannot coincide with the first insertion portion 231 before the rotation. Similarly, the first insertion groove 3121 has a non-centrosymmetric structure or a non-centrosymmetric shape, so that after rotating the first insertion groove 3121 about a certain point by 180°, it cannot coincide with the first insertion groove 3121 before the rotation. This ensures that the first insertion groove 3121 and the first insertion portion 231 have a unique alignment angle.

[0098] When the first insertion part 231 is inserted into the first insertion slot 3121, the atomizing core electrically connected to the power supply electrode 21 is simultaneously connected to the air intake.

[0099] In some embodiments, the first connector 312 is configured to rotate relative to the second connector 23 when the first insertion portion 231 is not inserted into the first insertion slot 3121, so that the first insertion portion 231 can be aligned with the first insertion slot 3121 by the relative rotation of the two.

[0100] Furthermore, when the first insertion part 231 is inserted into the first insertion slot 3121, the first connector 312 and the second connector 23 interfere with each other in the lateral direction, so that the first connector 312 and the second connector 23 can rotate synchronously, thereby allowing the power supply electrode 21 and the air intake port 311 or the air guide channel to rotate synchronously relative to the atomizing module 1. Therefore, after the first insertion part 231 is inserted into the first insertion slot 3121, if the atomizing module 1 is driven to rotate relative to the power supply electrode 21, the atomizing core 11 electrically connected to the power supply electrode 21 and the atomizing core 11 connected to the air intake port 311 can be changed simultaneously, and the atomizing core 11 electrically connected to the power supply electrode 21 and the atomizing core 11 connected to the air intake port 311 are the same.

[0101] Therefore, the nozzle module 3 can be connected to the power supply module 2 or the atomizing module 1 at will. If the first insertion part 231 is not aligned with the first insertion slot 3121, the first insertion part 231 and the first insertion slot 3121 can be aligned by rotating the first connector 312 and the second connector 23 relative to each other. After they are aligned, the first connector 312 and the second connector 23 can be made to interfere with each other and maintain synchronous rotation by inserting the first insertion part 231 into the first insertion slot 3121. Furthermore, the power supply electrode 21 and the air intake 311 or the air guide channel 321 can be synchronously rotated relative to the atomizing module 1 by operating the power supply module 2, operating the nozzle module 3, or operating other operating components.

[0102] In some embodiments, after the first insertion portion 231 is aligned with the first insertion slot 3121, the first insertion portion 231 is configured to be automatically inserted into the first insertion slot 3121.

[0103] For example, the nozzle module 3 includes a first magnetic element 33, and the power supply module 2 or the atomizing module 1 is provided with a second magnetic element 24. The second magnetic element 24 is configured to magnetically attract the first magnetic element 33 so that when the first insertion part 231 and the first insertion slot 3121 are rotated to be aligned, the first insertion part 231 is automatically inserted into the first insertion slot 3121.

[0104] Therefore, since the first insertion part 231 and the first insertion groove 3121 are both non-centrally symmetrical structures or have non-centrally symmetrical shapes, the first insertion groove 3121 and the first insertion part 231 have a unique alignment angle or interference fit angle. After the two are aligned by rotating them relative to each other, the first insertion part 231 can be automatically inserted into the first insertion groove 3121 under the magnetic attraction of the first magnetic element 33 and the second magnetic element 24. At this time, the atomizing core 11, which is electrically connected to the power supply electrode 21, is simultaneously connected to the air intake 311.

[0105] The first magnetic element 33 and the second magnetic element 24 may both include magnets. One of the first magnetic element 33 and the second magnetic element 24 may include a magnet, and the other may include a magnetic object capable of magnetic attraction, such as an iron sheet or iron block.

[0106] In some embodiments, reference may be made to Figure 5 The first magnetic element 33 is held on the first connector 312. In some embodiments, reference may be made to... Figure 3 The second magnetic element 24 is held on the second connector 23.

[0107] Furthermore, the connector including the first insertion portion 231 has a first retaining groove 232 for retaining the magnetic element, and the connector including the first insertion groove 3121 has a second retaining groove 3122 for retaining the magnetic element. Furthermore, the first insertion groove 3121 is configured to communicate with the second retaining groove 3122 and provide a channel for the corresponding magnetic element to enter the second retaining groove 3122, so that the corresponding magnetic element can pass through the first insertion groove 3121 and then enter the second retaining groove 3122 for retention.

[0108] For example, you can refer to Figure 6 The first connector 312 is provided with a first insertion groove 3121, and the first connector 312 is also provided with a second retaining groove 3122. The first magnetic element 33 can be retained in the second retaining groove 3122 and thus be retained on the first connector 312. The area of ​​the first insertion groove 3121 is greater than or equal to the area of ​​the second retaining groove 3122, so that the first magnetic element 22 can pass through the first insertion groove 3121 and be assembled into the second retaining groove 3122, and thus be retained in the second retaining groove 3122.

[0109] For example, you can refer to Figure 4 The second connector 23 includes a first insertion portion 231, and a first retaining groove 232 is provided on the second connector 231. The second magnetic member 24 can be held on the second connector 23 by being held in the first retaining groove 232. Furthermore, the first retaining groove 232 is formed in the first insertion portion 231, so that when the first insertion portion 231 is inserted into the first insertion groove 3121, at least a portion of the second magnetic member 24 is also located in the first insertion groove 3121. Even further, the first retaining groove 232 is open at one end facing the nozzle module 2 to allow the second magnetic member 24 to be assembled.

[0110] In such Figure 2 In the embodiment shown, when the first insertion part 231 is inserted into the first insertion slot 3121, the first magnetic element 33 and the second magnetic element 24 are arranged face to face and can be in direct contact.

[0111] In some embodiments, reference may be made to Figure 4 and Figure 5 One of the first connector 312 and the second connector 23 is provided with a tooth 3123 and the other is provided with a tooth groove 233. When the first insertion part 231 is inserted into the first insertion groove 3121, the tooth 3123 is located in the tooth groove 233, so that the first connector 312 and the second connector 23 mesh, thereby enabling the first connector 312 and the second connector 23 to rotate synchronously.

[0112] For example, the first connector 312 includes a protruding tooth 3123. The protruding tooth 3123 can be disposed in the first insertion groove 3121 and spaced apart from the groove wall of the first insertion groove 3121; or it can be referred to Figure 5 The protruding tooth 3123 can be located in the first insertion groove 3121 and connected to the groove wall of the first insertion groove 3121.

[0113] The second connector 23 includes a toothed groove 233. (See reference...) Figure 4 The toothed groove 233 can be formed by recessing inward from the outer side wall of the first insertion part 231, or by recessing inward from the end face of the second connector 231 toward the nozzle module 3 in a direction away from the nozzle module 3.

[0114] The protruding tooth 3123 and the corresponding tooth groove 233 can have appropriate dimensions to reduce the lateral wobbling of the protruding tooth 3123 after it is inserted into the tooth groove 233.

[0115] The number of protruding teeth 3123 and the number of tooth grooves 233 can be the same.

[0116] There may be only one tooth 3123 and one tooth groove 233 that are adapted to it, or there may be only one tooth 3123 that is adapted to the tooth groove 233, so that the first insertion groove 3121 and the first insertion part 231 are non-centrally symmetrical structures or have non-centrally symmetrical shapes.

[0117] Multiple teeth 3123 and corresponding grooves 233 may be present: as an example, at least two teeth 3123 may have different shapes or sizes, thereby making the first insertion groove 3121 a non-centrosymmetric structure or having a non-centrosymmetric shape; correspondingly, at least two grooves 233 may have different shapes or sizes, thereby making the first insertion portion 231 a non-centrosymmetric structure or having a non-centrosymmetric shape; as an example, multiple teeth 3123 may be distributed in the first insertion groove 3121 in a non-centrosymmetric manner, and correspondingly, multiple grooves 233 may be distributed in the first insertion portion 231 in a non-centrosymmetric manner.

[0118] In some embodiments, reference may be made to Figure 5Part of the wall of the first insertion groove 3121 is a planar groove wall 3124, and part of the outer wall of the first insertion part 231 is a planar side wall 234. When the first insertion part 231 is inserted into the first insertion groove 3121, the planar side wall 234 is set towards the planar groove wall 3124, so that the first insertion groove 3121 is a non-circular groove and the first insertion part 231 has a non-circular cross section, so that when the first insertion part 231 is inserted into the first insertion groove 3121, the first connector 312 and the second connector 23 can interfere with each other in the lateral direction, thereby enabling the two to rotate synchronously.

[0119] There can be only one planar groove wall 3124 and one planar side wall 234, so that the first insertion groove 3121 and the first insertion part 231 are non-centrally symmetrical structures or have non-centrally symmetrical shapes.

[0120] There may be multiple planar groove walls 3124 and / or planar sidewalls 234, but the distribution or shape of one or more planar groove walls 3124 makes the first insertion groove 3121 a non-centrally symmetrical structure or has a non-centrally symmetrical shape, and the distribution or shape of one or more planar sidewalls 234 makes the first insertion part 231 a non-centrally symmetrical structure or has a non-centrally symmetrical shape.

[0121] In some embodiments (not shown), the nozzle module includes a first part and a second part. The first part includes an air intake and is configured to maintain a static correspondence with the atomizing module. The second part includes an air guide channel and a first connector, such that the air guide channel can maintain a static correspondence with the first connector. The number of air guide channels is less than the number of air ducts (e.g., there may be only one air guide channel), and the second part is rotatably connected to the first part, allowing the power supply electrode and the second part to rotate synchronously relative to the atomizing module and the air intake to select an air duct connected to the air guide channel. The air duct connected to the air guide channel can connect to the air intake through the air guide channel, and the atomizing core corresponding to the air duct connected to the air guide channel is electrically connected to the power supply electrode. When driving the power supply electrode to rotate relative to the atomizing module, the power supply electrode can also rotate relative to the first part simultaneously, and the second part including the first connector can rotate synchronously with the power supply electrode, so that the second part can rotate simultaneously relative to the first part and the atomizing module. Therefore, during the selection of the air duct connected to the air guide channel, the first part including the air intake and the atomizing module can remain stationary together.

[0122] In some embodiments, reference may be made to Figure 6 and Figure 7The nozzle module 3 includes a first part 31 and a second part 32. The first part 31 includes a first connector 312 and an air inlet 311. The second part 32 has multiple air channels 321 that are connected to multiple air guide tubes 13 one by one. The first part 31 is configured to be rotatably connected to the second part 32 so that the air channel 321 connected to the air inlet 311 can be selected by rotation. The atomizing core 11 corresponding to the air channel 321 connected to the air inlet 311 is also electrically connected to the power supply electrode 21, so that the atomizing core 11 can obtain electrical power to generate aerosol, and the generated aerosol can be guided to the air inlet 311 through the corresponding air guide tube 13 and air channel 321.

[0123] Furthermore, the second part 32 interferes with the atomizing module 1 in the lateral direction, thereby enabling the second part 32 to maintain a static correspondence with the atomizing module 1. Thus, when the first insertion part 231 is inserted into the first insertion slot 3121, the power supply electrode 21 and the first part 31 containing the first connector 312 can rotate synchronously relative to the atomizing module 1 and the second part 32.

[0124] When the power supply electrode 21 rotates relative to the atomizing module 1, the power supply electrode 21 can also rotate relative to the second part 32 simultaneously. At the same time, the first part 31, including the first connector 312, can rotate synchronously with the power supply electrode 21, thus allowing the first part 31 to rotate simultaneously relative to both the second part 32 and the atomizing module 1. Therefore, during the selection of the air guide channel 321 connected to the air inlet 311, the second part 32, including the air guide channel 321, and the atomizing module 1 can remain stationary together.

[0125] Furthermore, one can refer to Figure 4 and Figure 5 One of the atomizing module 1 and the second part 32 is provided with a second insertion groove 17, and the other includes a second insertion part 34. When the first insertion part 231 is inserted into the first insertion groove 3121, at least a portion of the second insertion part 34 is inserted into the second insertion groove 17, thereby causing the atomizing module 1 and the second part 32 to interfere with each other in the lateral direction.

[0126] When the first insertion part 231 is not inserted into the first insertion slot 3121, at least a portion of the second insertion part 34 can also be inserted into the second insertion slot 17, thereby helping to keep the nozzle module 3 connected to the atomizing module 1 during the relative rotation of the first connector 312 and the second connector 23.

[0127] In such Figure 2 In the embodiment shown, the second part 32 is located between the first part 31 and the atomizing module 1. The second part 32 is provided with a through hole, and at least a portion of the first connector 312 is disposed in the through hole. The second part 32 is configured to rotate about the first connector 312.

[0128] In such Figure 7 In the illustrated embodiment, the first connector 312 is provided with an anti-detachment portion 3125, and at least a portion of the second part 32 is rotatably disposed between the air intake 311 and the anti-detachment portion 3125. The anti-detachment portion 3125 is used to prevent the second part 32 from detaching from the first part 31. Further, the first part 31 also includes a base 313 and a nozzle 314 connected to the base 313. The air intake 311 is opened in the nozzle 314. The first connector 312 is connected to the base 313 and is located on the side of the base 313 opposite to the nozzle 314. At least a portion of the second part 32 is rotatably disposed between the base 313 and the anti-detachment portion 3125.

[0129] In some embodiments, the nozzle module 3 is removably connected to the power supply module 2. When the nozzle module 3 and the power supply module 2 are connected, a receiving space 251 is formed between them. The receiving space 251 is used to removably accommodate the atomizing module 1. The atomizing module 1 is configured to be non-removably held in the receiving space 251 when the nozzle module 3 and the power supply module 2 are connected. Thus, the atomizing module 1 can only be removed from the power supply module 2 after the nozzle module 3 is removed from the power supply module 2, or a new atomizing module 1 can only be connected to the power supply module 2 after that.

[0130] The nozzle module 3 and the power supply module 2 can be removably connected by the mutual magnetism between the first magnetic component 33 and the second magnetic component 24.

[0131] Understandably, the nozzle module 3 can also be removably connected to the atomizing module 1, so that the nozzle module 3, the atomizing module 1 and the power supply module 2 can be separated and assembled with each other.

[0132] In some embodiments, reference may be made to Figure 3 The power supply module 2 also includes a first housing 25 having an internal receiving space 251. The first housing 25 has an assembly port, and the atomizing module 1 is configured to be installed into and removed from the receiving space 251 through the assembly port. The nozzle module 3 is removably connected to the power supply module 2, and the nozzle module 3 blocks the assembly port when connected to the power supply module 2. Therefore, when the nozzle module 3 is connected to the power supply module 2, it prevents the atomizing module 1 from being removed from the receiving space 251 and prevents the atomizing module 1 from being installed into the receiving space 251.

[0133] In some embodiments, when the atomizing module 1 is located in the receiving space 251, the atomizing module 1 can rotate relative to the first housing 25, so that the atomizing module 1 can be rotatably accommodated in the first housing 25.

[0134] In some embodiments, when the atomizing module 1 is located in the receiving space 251, the atomizing module 1 and the first housing 25 are interfering with each other in the lateral direction, so that the atomizing module 1 and the first housing 25 can rotate synchronously relative to the second connector 23 and the power supply electrode 21.

[0135] In some embodiments, the nozzle module 3 is configured to maintain connection with the power supply module 2 or the atomizing module 1 through the magnetic attraction between the first magnetic element 33 and the second magnetic element 24 during the rotation of the first connector 312 relative to the second connector 23; and when the first insertion part 231 is not inserted into the first insertion slot 3121, there is a first gap between the air intake 311 and the atomizing module 1, and when the first insertion part 231 is inserted into the first insertion slot 3121, there is a second gap between the air intake 311 and the atomizing module 1, wherein the first gap is greater than the second gap.

[0136] Therefore, when the first insertion part 231 is not inserted into the first insertion slot 3121, by rotating the first connector 312 relative to the second connector 23 to align the first connector 312 with the second connector 23, the first insertion part 231 will automatically insert into the first insertion slot 3121. Not only will there be sound and vibration generated during insertion as an insertion prompt signal, but the change from the first spacing to the second spacing will also generate a visual signal to indicate whether the first insertion part 231 has been inserted into the first insertion slot 3121.

[0137] In some embodiments, reference may be made to Figure 5 The nozzle module 3 has a shoulder 35. When the first insertion part 231 is not inserted into the first insertion slot 3121, the end of the first outer shell 25 adjacent to the nozzle module 3 has a large longitudinal distance from the shoulder 35, and the shoulder 35 is located outside the first outer shell 25. When the first insertion part 231 is inserted into the first insertion slot 3121, the end of the first outer shell 25 adjacent to the nozzle module 3 contacts the shoulder 35 longitudinally, or has a small longitudinal distance from the shoulder 35, thereby keeping a portion of the nozzle module 3 outside the first outer shell 25 for the user to hold in their mouth. The user can determine whether the first insertion part 231 is inserted into the first insertion slot 3121 by observing the longitudinal distance between the end of the first outer shell 25 adjacent to the nozzle module 3 and the shoulder 25.

[0138] In some embodiments, when the first insertion part 231 is not inserted into the first insertion slot 3121, a portion of the second part 32 of the nozzle module 3 is exposed outside the first housing 25. When the first insertion part 231 is inserted into the first insertion slot 3121, the nozzle module 3 sinks down, and the second part 32 of the nozzle module 3 is completely hidden in the second housing 25.

[0139] In some embodiments, reference may be made to Figure 2 and Figure 8The power supply module 2 also includes a first bracket 26 and a connecting post 27 extending longitudinally in the receiving space 251. The power supply electrode 21 is held on the first bracket 26, so that the power supply electrode 21 can maintain a static correspondence with the first bracket 26. The connecting post 27 connects the first bracket 26 and the second connecting member 23. The first bracket 26 and the second connecting member 23 can be located at opposite ends of the connecting post 27.

[0140] When the atomizing module 1 is located in the receiving space 251, at least a portion of the connecting post 27 is rotatably disposed inside the atomizing module 1, so that the atomizing module 1 can rotate about the connecting post 27, or the connecting post 27 can rotate inside the atomizing module 1.

[0141] Preferably, the first bracket 26 and the connecting column 27 are integrally injection molded.

[0142] In some embodiments, reference may be made to Figure 2 and Figure 8 The power supply module 2 also includes a second bracket 28 rotatably connected to the first bracket 26 and a hollow tube 29 connected to the second bracket 28 and extending longitudinally in the receiving space 251, so that the hollow tube 29 can maintain a static correspondence with the second bracket 28. Preferably, the hollow tube 29 and the second bracket 28 are integrally injection molded.

[0143] The connecting post 27 rotatably passes through the hollow tube 29 and connects to the second connector 23. When the atomizing module 1 is located in the receiving space 251, the atomizing module 1 and the second support 28 interfere with each other in the lateral direction, so that the atomizing module 1, the second support 28 and the hollow tube 29 can rotate synchronously with the connecting post 27 and the power supply electrode 21.

[0144] The hollow tube 29 is disposed between the first bracket 26 and the second connector 23, and the hollow tube 29 is configured to stop the second connector 23 and the first bracket 26 to prevent the connecting post 27 from exiting the hollow tube 29, thereby allowing the first bracket 26 and the second bracket 28 to remain connected, so that when the atomizing module 1 is removed from the receiving space 251, the second bracket 28 can be prevented from detaching from the first bracket 26 or the hollow tube 29 can be prevented from detaching from the connecting post 27.

[0145] Furthermore, the outer radius of the second connector is larger than the inner radius of the hollow tube, and the radius is defined as the maximum distance between the center and the edge. The connecting post can be connected to the second connector by assembly; specifically, after the hollow tube is fitted over the outer periphery of the connecting post, the connecting post is then connected to the second connector.

[0146] In some embodiments, the second bracket 28 is at least partially disposed within the first housing 25, and the second bracket 28 and the first housing 25 are laterally interference-fitted, thereby enabling the second bracket 28, the hollow tube 29, and the first housing 25 to rotate synchronously relative to the connecting post 27. The second bracket 28 and the first housing 25 can be formed integrally by insert injection molding. The second bracket 28 can also be riveted to at least partially fit into the first housing 25 and form an integral part with the first housing 25.

[0147] One of the first support 26 and the second support 28 may have a protrusion, and the other may have a groove. During the relative rotation of the first support 26 and the second support 28, when the protrusion is rotated to the corresponding groove, vibration and / or a sound will be generated to indicate that the power supply electrode 21 has been electrically connected to one or more atomizing cores 11. Simultaneously, the lateral interference between the protrusion and the groove provides resistance to the rotation of the first support 26 relative to the second support 28, thus preventing the power supply electrode 21 from unexpectedly disconnecting from the corresponding atomizing core 11.

[0148] In some embodiments, reference may be made to Figure 3 and Figure 4 The power supply module 2 also includes a second housing 30, in which at least a portion of the first bracket 26 is held, and the power supply 22 is also held in the second housing 30. The first housing 25 is rotatable relative to the second housing 30.

[0149] It should be noted that the preferred embodiments of this application are given in the specification and accompanying drawings, but are not limited to the embodiments described in this specification. Furthermore, those skilled in the art can make improvements or modifications based on the above description, and all such improvements and modifications should fall within the protection scope of the appended claims.
