Technical Field

[0002] Electronic atomizing devices are used to generate aerosols for user consumption. However, in existing technologies, due to structural design limitations, the liquid inside these devices is prone to evaporation during transportation due to high temperatures; or leakage during air transport due to pressure changes; or leakage caused by shaking when the user carries the device. This results in significant liquid loss from the electronic atomizing devices, negatively impacting the user experience. Utility Model Content

For those skilled in the art, detailed description of these related operations is not necessary; they can fully understand the related operations based on the description in the specification and general technical knowledge in the art.

[0023] Furthermore, the features, operations, or characteristics described in the specification can be combined in any suitable manner to form various embodiments, and the operational steps involved in each embodiment can also be rearranged or adjusted in a manner that is obvious to those skilled in the art. Therefore, the specification and drawings are only for clearly describing a particular embodiment and do not imply that they represent the necessary components and / or order.

[0024] The serial numbers assigned to components in this document, such as "first" and "second," are used only to distinguish the described objects and have no sequential or technical meaning. The terms "connection" and "linkage" used in this application, unless otherwise specified, include both direct and indirect connections (linkages).

[0025] This application provides an atomizing device, such as... Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the atomizing device may include a first atomizer 1, a second atomizer 2, and a housing 3. The first atomizer 1 is used to atomize the aerosol matrix and generate aerosol, and the second atomizer 2 is used to heat the atomizing matrix and generate aerosol. Both the first atomizer 1 and the second atomizer 2 are installed inside the housing 3. For example, the housing 3 may include an upper shell 31, a lower shell 32, and a support 33. The upper shell 31 and the lower shell 32 can be connected to the support 33 by snap-fit ​​or plug-in connection, and the first atomizer 1 and the second atomizer 2 can be installed side by side inside the support 33. A mouthpiece is provided at the top of the upper shell 31. The aerosol generated by the first atomizer 1 and the second atomizer 2 can be discharged from the mouthpiece alone for user use, or they can be mixed inside the housing 3 and discharged from the mouthpiece for user use. Depending on the function of the atomizing device, the housing 3 may also be equipped with either the first atomizer 1 or the second atomizer 2. The housing 3 may also be configured with a left and right shell connected (not shown in the figure), where the right shell is used to install the first atomizer 1 and the left shell is used to install the second atomizer 2. This application does not impose any special restrictions on the specific structure of the housing 3 or whether the first atomizer 1 and the second atomizer 2 are installed in the housing 3 at the same time.

[0026] Among them, such as Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the first atomizer 1 may include a liquid storage device 10, an atomizing component 20, and a power supply component 30. The liquid storage device 10 is used to store liquid aerosol matrix, the atomizing component 20 is used to receive and atomize the aerosol matrix from the liquid storage device 10, and the power supply component 30 is electrically connected to the atomizing component 20 to provide the operating voltage required for the atomizing component 20 to atomize.

[0027] In some embodiments, the atomizing assembly 20 may include an ultrasonic atomizing plate 201 and an elastic member 202. The elastic member 202 may be connected between the support 33 in the housing 3 and the ultrasonic atomizing plate 201. The ultrasonic atomizing plate 201 is disposed at the liquid outlet position of the liquid storage device 10 and electrically connected to the power supply assembly 30. During atomization, the liquid storage device 10 may provide an aerosol matrix to the ultrasonic atomizing plate 201. The aerosol matrix generates aerosol under the high-frequency vibration of the ultrasonic atomizing plate 201. The elastic member 202 is used to support the ultrasonic atomizing plate 201 and provide buffer space for the high-frequency vibration of the ultrasonic atomizing plate 201. In other embodiments, the atomizing assembly 20 may also include a heating element, which can heat the aerosol matrix provided by the liquid storage device 10 to generate aerosol through atomization. The aerosol generated by the high-frequency vibration of the ultrasonic atomizing plate 201 has better humidity than the aerosol generated by the heating element, which can improve the user experience. This application does not impose any special limitations on the specific structure of the atomizing assembly 20.

[0028] The first atomizer 1 can be configured to generate an aerosol containing only flavor substances and no nicotine, for use only in mixing with the aerosol generated by the second atomizer 2 to form a flavor-enhanced mixed aerosol. The flavor substances can provide fruitiness, acidity, and sweetness. In some embodiments, the first atomizer 1 can be configured to provide an aerosol containing nicotine to enhance nicotine concentration.

[0029] In addition, such as Figure 3 As shown, the second atomizer 2 may include a liquid storage component 21 and a heating element 22. The heating element 22 may be disposed within the liquid storage component 21 and electrically connected to the power supply component 30. The liquid storage component 21 is used to store the liquid atomizing matrix, and the heating element 22 is used to heat the atomizing matrix stored within the liquid storage component 21 to atomize and generate an aerosol. The liquid storage component 21 may be a liquid storage shell or a liquid storage cotton, and the heating element 22 may be a heating mesh or a heating wire. This application does not impose any special limitations on the specific structure of the liquid storage component 21 and the heating element 22. In other embodiments, the second atomizer 2 may also include a heating chamber and a heating element. The heating element is disposed within the heating chamber and electrically connected to the power supply component 30. The heating chamber is used to insert a solid aerosol product, and the heating element is used to heat the aerosol product inserted within the heating chamber to atomize and generate an aerosol. This application does not impose any special limitations on the specific structure of the second atomizer 2.

[0030] In some embodiments, the power supply component 30 may include a circuit board 301 and a battery cell 302. The atomizing component 20 and the heating element 22 may be electrically connected to the circuit board 301, and the circuit board 301 may be electrically connected to the battery cell 302, so that the battery cell 302 can supply power to the atomizing component 20 and the heating element 22 through the circuit board 301. To enrich the functionality of the atomizing device, the power supply component 30 may also include electronic components such as a controller, a charging interface, and an airflow sensor, all of which are electrically connected to the circuit board 301. The controller can be used to control the heating power, the charging interface can be used to connect an external power source to charge the battery cell 302, and the airflow sensor can be used to sense changes in airflow when the user uses the atomizing device. This application does not impose any special limitations on the specific structure of the power supply component 30.

[0031] When the atomizing device is equipped with both a first atomizer 1 and a second atomizer 2, the support 33 can be configured as an I-shaped structure. The atomizing component 20 can be installed on the top of the support 33, and the first atomizer 1 and the second atomizer 2 can be installed independently side-by-side in two empty positions in the middle of the support 33. The power supply component 30 can be installed at the bottom of the support 33. Thus, the aerosol matrix stored in the first atomizer 1 can be isolated from the atomizing matrix stored in the second atomizer 2 through the support 33, and they do not affect each other. The aerosol matrix stored in the first atomizer 1 can be the same as or different from the atomizing matrix stored in the second atomizer 2. This application does not impose any special restrictions on the specific structure of the support 33.

[0032] The above embodiments describe the overall structure of the atomizing device. This atomizing device can be a disposable product, meaning the first atomizer 1 and / or the second atomizer 2 can be fixedly connected to the power supply component 30. Alternatively, the atomizing device can be a replaceable product, meaning the first atomizer 1 and / or the second atomizer 2 can also be detachably connected to the power supply component 30, allowing the first atomizer 1 and / or the second atomizer 2 to be replaced according to the user's needs. This application does not impose any special limitations on the specific structural form of the atomizing device.

[0033] One embodiment of this application also provides a liquid storage device 10, such as... Figures 4 to 6 As shown, the liquid storage device 10 may include a liquid storage cap 11 and a liquid reservoir assembly 12. The liquid storage cap 11 has a liquid outlet 110. The liquid storage cap 11 covers the liquid reservoir assembly 12, which has a sealing portion 1221 and at least one liquid storage chamber 120. The sealing portion 1221 is used to seal the liquid outlet 110, and the liquid storage chamber 120 is used to store the aerosol matrix. The liquid reservoir assembly 12 is configured to be movable relative to the liquid storage cap 11 to a closed position and an open position. When the liquid reservoir assembly 12 is moved to the closed position, the liquid outlet 110 is sealed by the sealing portion 1221. When the liquid reservoir assembly 12 is moved to the open position, the liquid outlet 110 communicates with one of the liquid storage chambers 120.

[0034] When the atomizing device is not in use, for example, during transportation or user-carried scenarios, the liquid tank assembly 12 can be moved to the closed position relative to the liquid storage cap 11, causing the sealing part 1221 to block the liquid outlet 110, thereby creating a sealed space inside the liquid storage device 10 to prevent leakage or evaporation of the aerosol matrix in the liquid storage device 10. When the atomizing device is needed, the liquid tank assembly 12 can be moved to the open position relative to the liquid storage cap 11, allowing the liquid storage chamber 120 to communicate with the liquid outlet 110, so that the aerosol matrix in the liquid storage device 10 can flow out from the liquid outlet 110 for atomization by the atomizing assembly 20.

[0035] This application, by providing a sealing portion 1221 on the liquid reservoir assembly 12 and configuring the liquid reservoir assembly 12 as a structure movable relative to the liquid storage cap 11, allows users to independently control the opening or closing state of the liquid storage device 10 according to their usage needs. Simultaneously, the liquid storage cap 11 covers the liquid reservoir assembly 12, resulting in a larger sealing area between the liquid storage cap 11 and the liquid reservoir assembly 12, which helps reduce the occurrence of leakage from the liquid storage device 10. Furthermore, whether opening or closing the liquid storage device 10, since the liquid reservoir assembly 12 is movable relative to the liquid storage cap 11, the user does not need to remove the liquid storage cap 11 from the liquid reservoir assembly 12; they only need to move the liquid reservoir assembly 12, thus simplifying the user's operation.

[0036] In some embodiments, such as Figures 4 to 7 As shown, the liquid tank assembly 12 may include a liquid storage tank 121 and a sealing element 122; the liquid storage tank 121 has multiple liquid storage cavities 120, the sealing part 1221 is disposed on the sealing element 122, the sealing element 122 is also provided with multiple liquid outlets 1222, each liquid outlet 1222 is connected to each liquid storage cavity 120, the liquid storage cap 11 is disposed on the sealing element 122, and the sealing element 122 and the liquid storage tank 121 move together to close or open the liquid outlet 110.

[0037] The liquid reservoir assembly 12 is configured as a separate structure of the liquid reservoir 121 and the seal 122, allowing the liquid reservoir 121 and the seal 122 to be made of different materials. For example, the liquid reservoir 121 can be made of plastic or other plastic materials, and the seal 122 can be made of silicone or other rubber materials, thereby enabling the seal 122 to seal the gap between the liquid reservoir cap 11 and the liquid reservoir 121. Furthermore, configuring the liquid reservoir 121 and the seal 122 as separate components also helps to reduce the manufacturing difficulty of the liquid reservoir assembly 12. In other embodiments, the liquid reservoir assembly 12 can also be configured as a one-piece silicone component. This application does not impose any special restrictions on the specific material and structure of the liquid reservoir assembly 12.

[0038] When the liquid tank assembly 12 has multiple liquid storage chambers 120, different liquid storage chambers 120 can store different aerosol matrices to meet the user's needs. When using the atomizing device, the user can move the liquid tank assembly 12 so that one of the multiple liquid outlets 1222 is connected to the liquid outlet 110, allowing the aerosol matrices in the liquid storage chamber 120 connected to that liquid outlet 1222 to flow out of the liquid outlet 110 for atomization by the atomizing component 20. When the user needs to replace the aerosol matrices, the user can move the liquid tank assembly 12 so that another liquid outlet 1222 is connected to the liquid outlet 110, allowing the aerosol matrices in the liquid storage chamber 120 connected to that liquid outlet 1222 to flow out of the liquid outlet 110 for atomization by the atomizing component 20. When the user is not using the atomizing device, the user can move the liquid tank assembly 12 so that the sealing part 1221 seals the liquid outlet 110, preventing leakage when the user is carrying the atomizing device.

[0039] Among them, such as Figures 4 to 7 As shown, the sealing element 122 can rotate together with the liquid storage tank 121 around the rotation axis (aa axis). Multiple liquid storage chambers 120 are arranged circumferentially in the liquid storage tank 121 along the rotation axis. The sealing part 1221 and multiple liquid outlet parts 1222 are arranged circumferentially on the sealing element 122 along the rotation axis.

[0040] By arranging the liquid reservoir assembly 12 in a structure where the liquid reservoir 121 and the seal 122 rotate together, the internal space occupied by the liquid reservoir assembly 12 in the atomizing device can be reduced, thereby helping to reduce the size of the atomizing device. Furthermore, the liquid reservoir 121 and the seal 122 can rotate synchronously or asynchronously. For example, the liquid reservoir 121 can be connected to the seal 122, thereby allowing synchronous rotation between the liquid reservoir 121 and the seal 122. Alternatively, magnetic elements can be respectively provided inside the liquid reservoir 121 and the seal 122, allowing asynchronous rotation between the liquid reservoir 121 and the seal 122 via the magnetic force of the magnetic elements. Alternatively, the liquid reservoir 121 and the seal 122 can rotate asynchronously to close or open the liquid outlet 110. This application does not impose any special restrictions on whether the liquid reservoir 121 and the seal 122 rotate synchronously.

[0041] In other embodiments, the liquid storage tank 121 and the sealing element 122 can also be configured to slide synchronously or asynchronously. For example, multiple liquid storage chambers 120 are arranged side by side within the liquid storage tank 121, and the sealing portion 1221 and multiple liquid outlet portions 1222 are arranged side by side on the sealing element 122. The sealing element 122 slides synchronously or asynchronously with the liquid storage tank 121, which can also close or open the liquid outlet 110. This application does not impose any special restrictions on the specific manner in which the liquid tank assembly 12 moves relative to the liquid storage cap 11.

[0042] Among them, such as Figure 7As shown, the sealing element 122 may include a sealing post 1223 and a sealing seat 1224; the sealing post 1223 is connected to the sealing seat 1224, the sealing post 1223 is used to seal the liquid storage cap 11, and the sealing seat 1224 is at least partially used to seal the liquid storage chamber 121. The sealing part 1221 and a plurality of liquid outlet parts 1222 are arranged circumferentially on the sealing post 1223 along the rotation axis, and the plurality of liquid outlet parts 1222 are spaced apart.

[0043] For example, the sealing seat 1224 can be circular and have a large thickness, so that the lower half of the sealing seat 1224 can be used to seal the connection with the liquid storage tank 121 to prevent the aerosol matrix in the liquid storage chamber 120 from flowing out of the liquid storage tank 121. A circular receiving cavity can be provided on the bracket 33 for connecting the liquid storage device 10, so that the upper half of the sealing seat 1224 can be installed in the receiving cavity, thereby sealing the connection between the liquid storage device 10 and the bracket 33 to prevent the aerosol matrix from leaking from the bracket 33.

[0044] Furthermore, the sealing portion 1221 on the sealing column 1223 can be configured as a sealing surface. When the liquid tank assembly 12 needs to be rotated to the closed position, the sealing surface adheres to the liquid storage cap 11 at the liquid outlet 110, thereby sealing the liquid outlet 110. The liquid outlet portion 1222 on the sealing column 1223 can be configured as a liquid outlet groove. The liquid outlet groove can extend along the height direction of the sealing column 1223, and the side of the liquid outlet groove away from the rotation axis can be configured as an open shape to increase the liquid outlet area of ​​the liquid outlet groove. When the liquid tank assembly 12 needs to be rotated to the open position, the liquid outlet groove communicates with the liquid outlet 110, thereby allowing the aerosol matrix to flow to the atomizing assembly 20.

[0045] In other embodiments, the seal 122 can also be configured as a cylindrical structure, with multiple channels formed on the cylindrical seal 122, each channel communicating with each liquid storage chamber 120. The bottom of the cylindrical seal 122 can be used for a sealing connection with the liquid storage tank 121, and the sidewalls of the cylindrical seal 122 without channels can be used to block the liquid outlet 110. In this way, the seal 122 can also be rotated to connect or close the channels with the liquid outlet 110, allowing the user to independently control the flow of the aerosol matrix in the liquid storage chamber 120 out of the liquid outlet 110. This application does not impose any special limitations on the specific shape of the seal 122.

[0046] To make the seal 122 more easily rotate relative to the reservoir cap 11, such as Figure 7As shown, the sealing element 122 may further include a first protrusion 1225 and a second protrusion 1226; the first protrusion 1225 is located on the outer periphery of the sealing portion 1221, and when the liquid tank assembly 12 is rotated to the closed position, the first protrusion 1225 abuts against the liquid storage cap 11 and is located on the outer periphery of the liquid outlet 110; the second protrusion 1226 is disposed on the outer periphery of the liquid outlet portion 1222, and when the liquid tank assembly 12 is rotated to the open position, one of the liquid outlet portions 1222 is connected to the liquid outlet 110, and the remaining liquid outlet portions 1222 are sealed in the liquid storage cap 11 by the second protrusion 1226.

[0047] For example, the first protrusion 1225 can be configured as a rib surrounding the top, sides, and bottom of the sealing portion 1221, and the second protrusion 1226 can be configured as a rib surrounding the top, sides, and bottom of the liquid outlet portion 1222. When the sealing member 122 rotates relative to the liquid storage cap 11, since the first protrusion 1225 and the second protrusion 1226 protrude from the surface of the sealing post 1223 respectively, the contact area between the first protrusion 1225 and the second protrusion 1226 and the liquid storage cap 11 is smaller than that between the sealing post 1223 and the liquid storage cap 11. This makes it easier for the user to rotate the sealing member 122, thus making the sealing member 122 easier to rotate. Of course, in other embodiments, the sealing member 122 can also directly form a sealing structure between the outer surface of the sealing post 1223 and the liquid storage cap 11. This application does not impose any special restrictions on the structural method by which the sealing member 122 and the liquid storage cap 11 form a seal.

[0048] It is understood that the second protrusion 1226 can be disposed on the seal 122 between adjacent liquid outlets 1222, thereby isolating multiple liquid outlets 1222 from each other to prevent cross-flow or cross-contamination of the aerosol matrix in multiple liquid storage chambers 120 at the liquid outlets 1222. Simultaneously, when the seal 122 is rotated, after one liquid outlet 1222 connects to the liquid outlet 110, the remaining liquid outlets 1222 can still remain sealed within the liquid storage cap 11 through the first protrusion 1225 and / or the second protrusion 1226, thereby preventing leakage of the aerosol matrix.

[0049] In some embodiments, such as Figure 4 As shown, the liquid tank assembly 12 may also include multiple liquid guiding components 123, which can be used to adsorb aerosol matrix; the liquid storage cap 11 is disposed on the top of the liquid storage tank 121, and each liquid guiding component 123 is disposed in each liquid storage cavity 120. One end of the liquid guiding component 123 is disposed at the bottom of the liquid storage cavity 120, and the other end of the liquid guiding component 123 passes through the sealing seat 1224 and is exposed at the liquid outlet 1222.

[0050] When the liquid outlet 1222 is connected to the liquid outlet 110, since a portion of the liquid guide 123 is exposed in the liquid outlet 1222, and the liquid guide 123 can adsorb the aerosol matrix stored in the liquid storage chamber 120, the ultrasonic atomizing sheet 201 ( Figure 3 (As shown) can be positioned at the liquid outlet 110 to subject the aerosol matrix adsorbed within the liquid guide 123 to high-frequency vibration, thereby atomizing and generating aerosol. The liquid guide 123 can be in the form of a cotton swab or cotton strip, and this application does not impose any special restrictions on the specific structure and material of the liquid guide 123.

[0051] This application utilizes the liquid guide 123 to adsorb the aerosol matrix, allowing the liquid storage cap 11 to be positioned at the top of the liquid storage chamber 121. This enables the aerosol matrix to flow from the bottom to the top of the liquid storage device 10 under the adsorption force of the liquid guide 123, thus supplying liquid to the atomizing component 20. Furthermore, compared to a direct flow method, this liquid supply method using the liquid guide 123 to adsorb the aerosol matrix allows for better control of the aerosol matrix's flow direction, locking in the liquid and preventing leakage due to diffusion. In other embodiments, the liquid storage cap 11 can also be positioned at the bottom of the liquid storage chamber 121, allowing the aerosol matrix to be supplied to the atomizing component 20 under gravity. This application does not impose any specific restrictions on the exact position of the liquid storage cap 11 relative to the liquid storage chamber 121.

[0052] Among them, such as Figures 7 to 9 As shown, the liquid outlet portion 1222 may include an inner groove extending along the rotation axis. An opening is provided on the side of the inner groove opposite to the rotation axis, and the portion of the liquid guide member 123 exposed in the liquid outlet portion 1222 fills the inner groove.

[0053] Therefore, the portion of the liquid guide 123 exposed at the liquid outlet 1222 can be fixed to the seal 122 via the inner groove, preventing the aerosol matrix adsorbed by the liquid guide 123 from flowing out of the inner groove when the liquid guide 123 rotates. By providing an opening on the side of the inner groove away from the rotation axis, the ultrasonic atomizing plate 201 can perform high-frequency vibration on the aerosol matrix adsorbed in the liquid guide 123 at the opening position. In other embodiments, the liquid outlet 1222 can also be configured as an open structure on the seal 122, so that the portion of the liquid guide 123 exposed at the liquid outlet 1222 is completely exposed at the open structure. This application does not impose any special limitations on the specific shape of the liquid outlet 1222.

[0054] In addition, such as Figures 7 to 9 As shown, the liquid guiding member 123 may include a first portion 123a embedded in the inner groove and a second portion 123b exposed in the inner groove; the curvature of the first portion 123a is greater than the curvature of the second portion 123b.

[0055] When a portion of the liquid guiding component 123 is installed on the liquid outlet 1222, because the curvature of the first portion 123a is greater than that of the second portion 123b, the first portion 123a of the liquid guiding component 123 can better fit the inner groove, and the liquid guiding component 123 can be tightened in the inner groove by the elastic force of the first portion 123a, thereby better fixing the liquid guiding component 123 to the sealing component 122. Meanwhile, the second portion 123b of the liquid guiding component 123, due to its smaller curvature, can increase the contact area between the ultrasonic atomizing plate 201 and the liquid guiding component 123 during high-frequency vibration, thereby improving the atomization efficiency of the aerosol matrix. In other embodiments, the liquid guiding component 123 can also be configured as a cylindrical structure; this application does not impose any special limitations on the specific shape of the liquid guiding component 123.

[0056] To better understand the contents of this application, such as Figure 9 As shown, taking the liquid reservoir assembly 12 with three liquid guiding elements 123 as an example, the three liquid guiding elements 123 can be respectively the first liquid guiding element 1231, the second liquid guiding element 1232, and the third liquid guiding element 1233. Correspondingly, the liquid storage tank 121 has three liquid storage chambers 120 ( Figure 6 As shown), each liquid guiding element 123 is respectively disposed in each liquid storage chamber 120. When the atomizing device is transported, the sealing element 122 can be rotated to Figure 9 As shown in (a), the sealing part 1221 faces the liquid outlet 110, and the liquid outlet 110 is sealed by the first protrusion 1225 to prevent leakage or evaporation of the aerosol matrix in the liquid storage chamber 120. When the user needs to use the aerosol matrix in the first liquid guiding component 1231, the sealing component 122 can be rotated clockwise in the figure to position the first liquid guiding component 1231 in the desired position. Figure 9 The outlet 110 shown in (b) is positioned for atomization by the atomizing assembly 20. When the user needs to switch the aerosol matrix within the second liquid guide 1232, the seal 122 can be rotated further to position the second liquid guide 1232 in the correct position. Figure 9 The outlet 110 is shown in (c). When the user needs to switch the aerosol matrix inside the third liquid guide 1233, the seal 122 can be rotated further to position the third liquid guide 1233 in the correct position. Figure 9 The position of the liquid outlet 110 is shown in (d). When the user needs to carry the atomizing device, the seal 122 can be rotated to block the liquid outlet 110 again.

[0057] The above embodiments provide a detailed description of the specific structure by which the seal 122 controls the closing or opening of the liquid storage device 10. To better control the rotation of the seal 122, the following embodiments will provide a detailed description of the specific structure of the liquid storage tank 121. In some embodiments, such as Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, the liquid storage tank 121 may include a top cover 1211, a tank wall 1212, a bottom plug 1213, and a liquid separator 1214. The top cover 1211 is connected to the tank wall 1212, the liquid separator 1214 is disposed inside the tank wall 1212 and connected to the top cover 1211, and the bottom plug 1213 is connected to the bottom of the tank wall 1212. The top cover 1211, the tank wall 1212, the bottom plug 1213, and the liquid separator 1214 together form a plurality of liquid storage cavities 120. The top cover 1211 may be provided with a plurality of liquid guiding channels 1215, each liquid guiding channel 1215 communicating with each liquid storage cavity 120, and a portion of the liquid guiding component 123 passing through the liquid guiding channel 1215.

[0058] By providing a top cover 1211 at the top of the liquid storage chamber 121, the aerosol matrix inside the liquid storage cavity 120 can be sealed by the area covered by the top cover 1211 to prevent leakage or evaporation of the aerosol matrix. By providing a bottom plug 1213 at the bottom of the liquid storage chamber 121, the liquid storage device 10 can quickly inject the aerosol matrix into the liquid storage cavity 120 before leaving the factory, and then seal the bottom of the liquid storage chamber 121 with the bottom plug 1213 to prevent leakage of the aerosol matrix. In other embodiments, the bottom of the liquid storage chamber 121 can also be integrally formed with the chamber wall 1212. This application does not impose any special limitations on the specific structure of the liquid storage chamber 121. In addition, according to the user's requirements for different aerosol matrix capacities, multiple liquid separators 1214 can divide the multiple liquid storage cavities 120 equally or unequally. This application does not impose any special limitations on the specific volume of the liquid storage chamber 121.

[0059] Since a portion of the liquid guiding component 123 passes through the liquid guiding channel 1215, the liquid guiding channel 1215 has a limiting function for the liquid guiding component 123. When the liquid storage tank 121 rotates, the liquid storage tank 121 can drive multiple liquid guiding components 123 to rotate together through the liquid guiding channel 1215. At the same time, the liquid guiding channel 1215 can also prevent the liquid storage tank 121 from experiencing insufficient liquid supply to the atomizing component 20 due to the liquid guiding component 123 shifting during rotation. The multiple liquid guiding channels 1215 can be evenly distributed or symmetrically arranged circumferentially along the rotation axis on the top cover 1211. This application does not impose any special restrictions on the specific arrangement of the multiple liquid guiding channels 1215 on the top cover 1211.

[0060] To ensure that the seal 122 rotates together with the liquid storage tank 121, such as Figure 5As shown, the liquid storage chamber 121 may further include a connecting column 1216 and a limiting member 1217; the connecting column 1216 is connected to the side of the top cover 1211 away from the liquid storage chamber 120 along the direction of the rotation axis, the limiting member 1217 is connected between the side wall of the connecting column 1216 and the top cover 1211, the side wall of the liquid guiding channel 1215 extends along the side away from the liquid storage chamber 120, and the sealing member 122 is installed on the connecting column 1216 and rotates together with the liquid storage chamber 121 by being limited by the side wall of the liquid guiding channel 1215 and the limiting member 1217.

[0061] The limiting member 1217 can be configured as a triangular piece, a rectangular piece, or an arc-shaped piece. When the sealing member 122 is installed on the liquid storage chamber 121, the limiting member 1217 can be embedded in the sealing member 122, allowing the liquid storage chamber 121 to rotate together with the sealing member 122 via the limiting member 1217. Simultaneously, the limiting member 1217 connects the side wall of the connecting column 1216 and the top cover 1211, providing support and fixation for the connecting column 1216 to improve its structural strength. Furthermore, the side wall of the liquid guiding channel 1215 extends away from the liquid storage chamber 120, causing the top of the liquid guiding channel 1215 to protrude from the surface of the top cover 1211. When the seal 122 is installed on the liquid storage tank 121, the side wall of the liquid guiding channel 1215 can also drive the seal 122 to rotate together, thereby avoiding the problem of leakage caused by the relative rotation between the seal 122 and the liquid storage tank 121.

[0062] In some embodiments, such as Figure 4 As shown, the liquid storage device 10 may also include a connector 13 and a sealing gasket 14; the sealing gasket 14 is disposed on the top of the liquid storage cover 11, the connector 13 passes through the sealing gasket 14 and the liquid storage cover 11 along the rotation axis and is connected to the connecting post 1216, and the sealing gasket 14 is pressed onto the liquid storage cover 11 by the connector 13.

[0063] By connecting the connector 13 to the connecting post 1216, the liquid storage cap 11 and the sealing gasket 14 can be pressed tightly onto the sealing member 122, thereby enhancing the sealing performance of the sealing member 122 between the liquid storage cap 11 and the liquid storage tank 121. The sealing gasket 14 can prevent the aerosol matrix from leaking or evaporating from the connecting post 1216. The connector 13 can be made of screws or pins, and this application does not impose any special restrictions on the specific structure of the connector 13.

[0064] In addition, such as Figure 10 and Figure 11As shown, the bracket 33 can be provided with mounting positions for installing the liquid storage device 10 to better support the liquid storage device 10. For example, a circular groove 330 can be provided on the top of the bracket 33, allowing the top of the liquid storage device 10 to be rotatably installed in the circular groove 330. A portion of the circular groove 330 can be provided with a first limiting surface 331, and the liquid storage cap 11 can be provided with a second limiting surface 111, with the first limiting surface 331 and the second limiting surface 111 abutting against each other. When the liquid tank assembly 12 rotates, the liquid storage cap 11 is held in place by the abutting of the first limiting surface 331 and the second limiting surface 111, allowing the liquid tank assembly 12 to rotate relative to the liquid storage cap 11 to an open or closed position. Furthermore, a rotating column 332 can be provided at the bottom of the bracket 33, allowing the bottom of the liquid storage device 10 to be rotatably installed on the rotating column 332, thus enabling both ends of the liquid storage device 10 to be supported by the circular groove 330 and the rotating column 332, ensuring the stability of the liquid storage device 10 during rotation. This application does not impose any special restrictions on the specific structure of the support 33.

[0065] In some embodiments, such as Figure 4 As shown, the liquid storage device 10 may also include a knob 15; the knob 15 is mounted on the outer periphery of the liquid tank assembly 12, and the knob 15 is configured to rotate together with the liquid tank assembly 12 when touched by a user.

[0066] The knob 15 can be connected to the wall 1212 of the liquid storage tank 121 by means of adhesive, snap-fit, or screw connection. The housing 3 can have a perforated section; for example, the upper housing 31 and lower housing 32 can be spaced apart to form a perforated section, allowing the knob 15 to protrude from the housing 3. When the user needs to rotate the liquid tank assembly 12, they can turn the knob 15 to control the rotation of the liquid tank assembly 12, thereby reducing the difficulty of adjusting the rotation of the liquid tank assembly 12. The knob 15 can be provided with anti-slip texture; this application does not impose special restrictions on the specific pattern of the anti-slip texture.

[0067] The above examples illustrate this application only to aid understanding and are not intended to limit its scope. Those skilled in the art to which this application pertains can make various simple deductions, modifications, or substitutions based on the ideas presented.
