Description

Technical Field

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

[0002] Some electronic atomizers are designed for portability, featuring a neckband or wristband style. For example, Chinese patent CN211532793U discloses a wearable electronic cigarette design, which uses a first main body, a connector, and a second main body to achieve the purpose of directly wearing and storing the electronic cigarette on the human body. However, this type of wearable electronic cigarette is inconvenient to wear during exercise, as it is prone to shaking and easily falls off the user. Utility Model Content

[0003] The main objective of this application is to provide an electronic atomizer that solves the technical problem that existing electronic atomizers are inconvenient for users to wear during exercise.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, this application proposes an electronic atomizer, the electronic atomizer comprising:

[0005] Atomizing unit;

[0006] An electronic control unit is electrically connected to the atomizing unit, and the electronic control unit is used to supply power to the atomizing unit;

[0007] A connector, with its two ends connected to the atomizing unit and the electronic control unit respectively, is flexible;

[0008] The first suction element is disposed in either the atomizing unit or the electronic control unit;

[0009] An electromagnetic component, disposed in the remaining one of the atomizing unit and the electronic control unit, wherein the electromagnetic component is electrically connected to the electronic control unit; and

[0010] An attitude sensor is disposed in the atomizing unit, the electronic control unit, or the connector. The attitude sensor is electrically connected to the electronic control unit. The attitude sensor is used to acquire the attitude information of the electronic atomizer. The electronic control unit is used to energize the electromagnetic component in response to the attitude information.

[0011] When the electronic atomizer is in motion, the attitude information acquired by the attitude sensor is a motion posture. The electronic control unit responds to the motion posture by energizing the electromagnetic component, and the electromagnetic component and the first attraction component attract each other.

[0012] Optionally, the connector is made of a flexible material.

[0013] Optionally, the connector has a multi-pleated structure.

[0014] Optionally, the electronic control unit is electrically connected to the atomizing unit via the connector; an air passage is formed inside the connector, and the air passage connects to the outside atmosphere and the atomizing unit.

[0015] Optionally, the electromagnetic component is an electromagnet or an inductor coil.

[0016] Optionally, the electronic atomizer further includes:

[0017] A first buffer structure is provided on the electronic control unit and / or the atomizing unit, and the first buffer structure is used to buffer the mutual collision between the atomizing unit and the electronic control unit.

[0018] Optionally, the electronic atomizer further includes:

[0019] A second buffer structure is provided on the atomizing unit and / or the electronic control unit. The second buffer structure is used to buffer the collision between the atomizing unit and / or the electronic control unit and external substances.

[0020] Optionally, the first suction element is disposed in the atomizing unit, the electromagnetic element is disposed in the electronic control unit, and the electronic atomizer further includes:

[0021] A second attracting element is disposed in the electronic control unit. The second attracting element and the first attracting element are able to attract each other. The first attracting element is a magnet, and the second attracting element is made of ferromagnetic material.

[0022] Optionally, the electromagnetic element is located at the geometric center of the second attraction element.

[0023] Optionally, the electronic control unit is configured to energize the electromagnetic component but not the atomizing unit.

[0024] Optionally, the electronic atomizer further includes:

[0025] A proximity sensor is provided in the electronic control unit, and the proximity sensor is used to acquire proximity information of the atomizing unit;

[0026] In the unfolded configuration of the electronic atomizer, the connector is unfolded, the atomizing unit and the electronic control unit are far apart, the proximity sensor acquires the proximity information as far apart, and the electronic control unit responds to the far apart by not energizing the electromagnetic component.

[0027] In the electronic atomizer of this application, when the electronic atomizer is in motion, the attitude sensor senses the motion and transmits an electrical signal to the electronic control unit. Upon receiving the signal, the electronic control unit energizes the electromagnetic component, which generates a magnetic field. The electromagnetic component and the first attraction component attract each other, causing the atomizing unit and the electronic control unit to connect, and the connecting component bends. Therefore, when the electronic atomizer is in motion, if the atomizing unit and the electronic control unit are already attached to the user's clothing or body (i.e., the connecting component is bent), the mutual attraction between the electromagnetic component and the first attraction component enhances the adhesion between the atomizing unit and the electronic control unit, making it less likely for the electronic atomizer to detach from the user.

[0028] In addition, in the electronic atomizer of this application, if the atomizing unit and the electronic control unit are not connected, that is, the connecting parts are in the unfolded state, the atomizing unit and the electronic control unit can be made to hug each other by the mutual attraction of the electromagnetic parts and the first attraction parts. By reducing the surface area of ​​the electronic atomizer and concentrating the center of gravity of the electronic atomizer, the impact resistance of the electronic atomizer is enhanced.

If the specific posture changes, the directional indicator will also change accordingly.

[0037] Furthermore, the use of terms such as "first" and "second" in this application is for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying their relative importance or implicitly specifying the number of technical features indicated. Therefore, a feature defined with "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include at least one of those features. Additionally, the term "and / or" throughout the text includes three solutions; taking A and / or B as an example, it includes technical solution A, technical solution B, and a technical solution that simultaneously satisfies A and B.

[0038] This application discloses an electronic atomizer, which includes an atomizing unit, an electronic control unit, a connector, a first suction element, an electromagnetic element, and an attitude sensor. The electronic control unit is electrically connected to the atomizing unit and is used to energize the atomizing unit. The connector is flexible and its two ends are connected to the atomizing unit and the electronic control unit, respectively. The first suction element is located at either the atomizing unit or the electronic control unit. The electromagnetic element is located at the remaining one of the atomizing unit and the electronic control unit, and is electrically connected to the electronic control unit. The attitude sensor is located at the atomizing unit, the electronic control unit, or the connector, and is electrically connected to the electronic control unit. The attitude sensor is used to acquire the attitude information of the electronic atomizer, and the electronic control unit energizes the electromagnetic element in response to the attitude information. During the movement of the electronic atomizer, the attitude information acquired by the attitude sensor is a motion posture. The electronic control unit energizes the electromagnetic element in response to the motion posture, and the electromagnetic element and the first suction element attract each other.

[0039] In this electronic atomizer, when the atomizer is in motion, the attitude sensor detects the motion and transmits an electrical signal to the electronic control unit (ECU). Upon receiving the signal, the ECU energizes the electromagnetic component, which generates a magnetic field. The electromagnetic component and the first attraction component attract each other, causing the atomizing unit and the ECU to connect, and the connector bends. Therefore, when the atomizer is in motion, if the atomizing unit and the ECU are already attached to the user's clothing or body (i.e., the connector is bent), the attraction between the electromagnetic component and the first attraction component strengthens the bond between the atomizing unit and the ECU, preventing the atomizer from easily detaching from the user. Furthermore, in this electronic atomizer, if the atomizing unit and the ECU are not connected (i.e., the connector is extended), the attraction between the electromagnetic component and the first attraction component helps the atomizing unit and the ECU to hold together. This reduces the surface area of ​​the atomizer and concentrates its center of gravity, enhancing its impact resistance.

[0040] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 2 The electronic atomizer 100 of this application includes an atomizing unit 110. The atomizing unit 110 is used to atomize the atomizing matrix inside it. The electronic atomizer 100 of this application includes an electronic control unit 120, which is electrically connected to the atomizing unit 110 and can supply power to the atomizing unit 110 to control the operation of the atomizing unit 110.

[0041] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 2 The electronic atomizer 100 of this application includes a connector 130. An electronic control unit 120 is electrically connected to an atomizing unit 110 via the connector 130. Specifically, the wires of the electronic control unit 120 can be connected to the atomizing unit 110 by passing through the connector 130. An air passage is formed inside the connector 130, connecting the external atmosphere and the atomizing unit 110, thereby allowing the atomizing unit 110 to be inhaled by the user.

[0042] In the electronic atomizer 100 of this application, the connector 130 is flexible. See also... Figure 1 When the connector 130 is deployed, the atomizing unit 110 and the electronic control unit 120 are separated, at which point the electronic atomizer 100 can be inhaled. Please refer to... Figure 2 When the connector 130 is bent, the atomizing unit 110 and the electronic control unit 120 approach each other and connect to each other. At this time, the electronic atomizer 100 can be clipped onto clothing, making the electronic atomizer 100 portable. The connector 130 can be made of flexible material (such as silicone, plastic or rubber material), and the connector 130 can also be a multi-pleated structure.

[0043] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 2 In one embodiment, the electronic atomizer 100 of this application includes a first suction element 140 and an electromagnetic element 150 (such as...). Figure 2 (as shown) and attitude sensor 160 (as shown) Figure 2 (As shown). The first attraction element 140 can be disposed in the atomizing unit 110, and the first attraction element 140 can be a magnet. The electromagnetic element 150 can be disposed in the electronic control unit 120, and the electromagnetic element 150 is electrically connected to the electronic control unit 120. The electromagnetic element 150 can be an electromagnet or an inductor coil. The attitude sensor 160 can be disposed in the electronic control unit 120, and the attitude sensor 160 is electrically connected to the electronic control unit 120. The attitude sensor 160 is used to acquire the attitude information of the electronic atomizer 100, and the electronic control unit 120 can be used to energize the electromagnetic element 150 in response to the attitude information.

[0044] When a user is exercising (e.g., running, skipping rope, or playing ball) or when the atomizer 100 is accidentally dropped, the atomizer 100 is in motion. The posture information acquired by the posture sensor 160 is the motion posture. The electronic control unit 120 responds to the motion posture by energizing the electromagnetic component 150. Under energization, the electromagnetic component 150 attracts the first attraction component 140. If the atomizing unit 110 and the electronic control unit 120 are already attached to the user's clothing or body, the mutual attraction between the electromagnetic component 150 and the first attraction component 140 strengthens the bond between the atomizing unit 110 and the electronic control unit 120, making it less likely for the atomizer 100 to fall off the user. If the atomizing unit 110 and the electronic control unit 120 are not connected, the mutual attraction between the electromagnetic component 150 and the first attraction component 140 promotes the bond between the atomizing unit 110 and the electronic control unit 120, thereby enhancing their impact resistance.

[0045] When the user is stationary or moving gently (e.g., walking), the electronic atomizer 100 is in a resting state. The attitude sensor 160 acquires the attitude information as a resting posture, and the electronic control unit 120 responds to the resting posture by not energizing the electromagnetic component 150.

[0046] The attitude sensor is a high-performance three-dimensional motion attitude measurement system based on MEMS technology. It includes motion sensors such as a three-axis gyroscope, a three-axis accelerometer, and a three-axis electronic compass. Through an embedded low-power ARM processor, it obtains temperature-compensated three-dimensional attitude and orientation data. Utilizing a quaternion-based three-dimensional algorithm and special data fusion technology, it outputs zero-drift three-dimensional attitude and orientation data in quaternion and Euler angle representation in real time. For the specific structure of the attitude sensor 160 in this application, please refer to existing technologies; details are not elaborated here.

[0047] In one embodiment, the electronic control unit 120 can be configured to energize the electromagnetic component 150 but not the atomizing unit 110. Understandably, generally speaking, when the user is exercising (running, jumping rope, or playing ball, etc.) or the electronic atomizer 100 is accidentally dropped, the user will not be performing inhalation actions, and the above setting can save energy consumption of the battery of the electronic control unit 120.

[0048] When the connector 130 unfolds, the mutual attraction between the electromagnetic component 150 and the first attraction component 140 causes the atomizing unit 110 and the electronic control unit 120 to hug each other, at which point the atomizing unit 110 and the electronic control unit 120 will collide with each other. In one embodiment, the electronic atomizer 100 further includes a first buffer structure, which is disposed in the electronic control unit 120 and / or the atomizing unit 110. The first buffer structure can be used to buffer the mutual collision between the atomizing unit 110 and the electronic control unit 120. The first buffer structure can be made of an elastic material, such as silicone, plastic, or rubber. The first buffer structure can be an elastic ring or an elastic block.

[0049] In one embodiment, the electronic atomizer 100 further includes a second buffer structure disposed in the atomizing unit 110 and / or the electronic control unit 120. The second buffer structure can be used to buffer the atomizing unit 110 and / or the electronic control unit 120 from collisions with external substances. This prevents the electronic atomizer 100 from being damaged by drops or reduces the degree of damage. The second buffer structure can also be made of an elastic material, such as silicone, plastic, or rubber. The second buffer structure can also be an elastic ring or an elastic block.

[0050] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 2 The electronic atomizer 100 also includes a second suction member 170. The second suction member 170 is disposed on the electronic control unit 120, and can attract the first suction member 140. The second suction member 170 is made of a ferromagnetic material. Thus, the atomizing unit 110 and the electronic control unit 120 can be magnetically connected, allowing the electronic atomizer 100 to be clipped onto clothing (the atomizing unit 110 and the electronic control unit 120 are located on opposite sides of the clothing), thereby improving the portability of the electronic atomizer 100.

[0051] Please see Figure 2 The electromagnetic component 150 is located at the geometric center of the second attraction component 170. Therefore, the magnetic connection between the atomizing unit 110 and the electronic control unit 120 is relatively effective.

[0052] In one embodiment, the electronic atomizer 100 further includes a proximity sensor (not shown), which is disposed in the electronic control unit 120 and is used to acquire proximity information of the atomizing unit 110. When the connector 130 is unfolded, the atomizing unit 110 and the electronic control unit 120 move away from each other, and the proximity information acquired by the proximity sensor is "moving away." In response to this movement, the electronic control unit 120 does not energize the electromagnetic component 150. With this configuration, when the electronic atomizer 100 is not attached to the user's clothing or body, i.e., when the electronic atomizer 100 is dropped, the electronic control unit 120 does not energize the electromagnetic component 150. In other words, the electronic control unit 120 can only energize the electromagnetic component 150 when the user moves to strengthen the connection between the atomizing unit 110 and the electronic control unit 120, thereby saving energy consumption of the battery in the electronic control unit 120. The proximity sensor may include at least one of capacitive proximity sensors, inductive proximity sensors, and photoelectric proximity sensors; this application does not specifically limit this type.

[0053] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this application and does not limit the patent scope of this application. Any equivalent structural transformations made based on the inventive concept of this application and the contents of the specification and drawings of this application, or direct / indirect applications in other related technical fields, are included within the patent protection scope of this application.
