[0047] In this document, the term "embodiment" means that a particular feature, structure, or characteristic described in connection with an embodiment may be included in at least one embodiment of this application. The appearance of this phrase in various places throughout the specification does not necessarily refer to the same embodiment, nor is it a separate or alternative embodiment mutually exclusive with other embodiments. It will be explicitly and implicitly understood by those skilled in the art that the embodiments described herein can be combined with other embodiments.

[0048] Please see Figures 1 to 3 , Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of the external structure of the charging box in some embodiments of this application. Figure 2 yes Figure 1 A schematic diagram of the internal structure of the charging box in the embodiment. Figure 3 yes Figure 1 An exploded view of the charging box in the embodiment.

[0049] This application provides a charging box, including a main body 10 and a cover 20. The main body 10 includes a charging space 11 and a storage space 12, and the cover 20 is configured to cover and open the storage space 12.

[0050] The charging space 11 is capable of accommodating at least a portion of a first device, which is a device containing a power source, and the charging box is configured to charge the power source housed in the charging space 11 to replenish the power of the first device. The storage space 12 is capable of accommodating at least a portion of a second device, which is a device storing an aerosol generation matrix.

[0051] In some embodiments, the first device further includes the original second device, which can be removed and thus the second device can replace the original second device. As an example, the first device further includes an atomizing component electrically connected to a power source. The original second device includes an aerosol generating matrix. The atomizing component is configured to utilize the electrical power provided by the power source to atomize the aerosol generating matrix to generate aerosols. Thus, after the original second device is replaced by the second device, the atomizing component in the first device can atomize the aerosol generating matrix provided by the second device to continue generating aerosols. As an example, the second device further includes an atomizing component capable of atomizing the aerosol generating matrix to generate aerosols. Thus, after the original second device is replaced by the second device, the power source in the first device can provide electrical power to the atomizing component in the second device to enable the atomizing component in the second device to atomize the aerosol generating matrix in the second device to generate aerosols.

[0052] In some embodiments, the first device includes a storage cavity for storing an aerosol generation matrix, and the second device is configured to replenish the aerosol generation matrix into the storage cavity. Further, the first device also includes an atomizing component for atomizing the aerosol generation matrix.

[0053] Preferably, the aerosol generating matrix includes a liquid matrix that is liquid at room temperature, and the atomizing component includes a liquid-absorbing element and a heating element. The liquid-absorbing element can adsorb the liquid matrix, and the heating element can heat at least a portion of the liquid matrix adsorbed on the liquid-absorbing element to generate an aerosol.

[0054] In some embodiments, the aerosol generating matrix stored in the original second device has a different composition from the aerosol generating matrix stored in the original second device, thus the aerosol generated by the aerosol generating matrix stored in the original second device has a different aroma or flavor than the aerosol generated by the aerosol generating matrix stored in the original second device. Based on this, the aerosol being drawn in can be changed by replacing the original second device with the second device. Furthermore, multiple second devices can be stored in the storage space 12, or there can be multiple storage spaces 12, each capable of storing at least one second device. Different second devices can store different aerosol generating matrices. Different second devices can be substituted for each other.

[0055] Please continue reading. Figures 1 to 3In some embodiments, the cover 20 includes a first side 21 and a second side 22 pivotally connected to the body 10, the first side 21 being configured to rotate the cover 20 relative to the body 10 to open or cover the storage space 12 of the cover 20.

[0056] In some embodiments, the cover 20 and the body 10 can also be slidably connected, and the cover 20 can be slid relative to the body 10 to open or cover the storage space 12.

[0057] Please see Figures 3 to 5 , Figure 4 yes Figure 1 A schematic diagram showing the positional relationship of the cover when it is in the closed state in the embodiment. Figure 5 yes Figure 1 A schematic diagram showing the positional relationship of the cover in the first open state in the embodiment.

[0058] In some embodiments, the cover 20 has a closed state and a first open state. The charging case includes an ejection mechanism 30 and a holding mechanism 40. The ejection mechanism 30 is configured to move between a first position and a second position. In the closed state, the ejection mechanism 30 is located in the first position; in the first open state, the ejection mechanism 30 is located in the second position and acts on a first side 21 of the cover 20, causing the cover 20 to remain in the first open state. The holding mechanism 40 interferes with the ejection mechanism 30 to keep the ejection mechanism 30 in the second position.

[0059] Specifically, in some embodiments, the cover 20 and the body 10 can be connected by magnetic attraction to keep the cover 20 in a closed state. During the movement of the ejection mechanism 30 to the second position, it can push the first side 21 of the cover 20 to move the cover 20 to a first open state against the magnetic attraction.

[0060] Alternatively, the cover 20 and the body 10 can be engaged in other ways, such as by snapping, so that the cover 20 can remain in the closed state. When the ejection mechanism 30 moves to the second position, it holds the cover 20 against the first side 21, thereby disengaging the cover 20 from the body 10 and allowing the cover 20 to move to the first open position.

[0061] In some embodiments, the retaining mechanism 40 is configured to move between a third position and a fourth position, wherein the retaining mechanism 40 is in the third position when the cover 20 is closed or when the ejection mechanism 30 is in the first position.

[0062] During the process of the cover 20 changing from a closed state to a first open state, or during the process of the ejection mechanism 30 moving from a first position to a second position, the ejection mechanism 30 acts on the holding mechanism 40 to move the holding mechanism 40 from a third position to a fourth position, and the cover 20 acts on the holding mechanism 40 to enable the holding mechanism 40 to remain in the fourth position.

[0063] When the holding mechanism 40 is in the fourth position, that is, when the ejection mechanism 30 is in the second position, the interference between the holding mechanism 40 and the ejection mechanism 30 allows the ejection mechanism 30 to remain in the second position, thereby keeping the cover 20 in the first opening state.

[0064] Optionally, the ejection mechanism 30 moves from a first position to a second position by rotation. The ejection mechanism 30 has a first protrusion 32, which can be an arc-shaped protrusion on the holding mechanism 30. When the holding mechanism 30 rotates from the first position to the second position by a certain angle, the first protrusion 32 contacts the cover 20. If the ejection mechanism 30 continues to rotate in the original direction, it will push the first side 21 of the cover 20 to move, so that the cover 20 gradually moves from the closed state to the first open state.

[0065] Optionally, the ejection mechanism 30 also has a second protrusion. When the holding mechanism rotates a certain angle from the first position to the second position, the second protrusion contacts the holding mechanism 40, and the ejection mechanism 30 continues to rotate in the original direction, which will drive the holding mechanism 40 to move from the third position to the fourth position.

[0066] Optionally, the fourth position is 30 degrees away from the ejection mechanism relative to the third position.

[0067] Optionally, the holding mechanism 40 moves along a straight line from the third position to the fourth position.

[0068] It should be noted that during the process of the holding mechanism 30 moving from the first position to the second position, the holding mechanism 30 can directly act on the holding mechanism 40, thereby causing the holding mechanism 40 to move from the third position to the fourth position. Alternatively, during the process of the cover 20 changing from a closed state to a first open state, the force exerted by the cover 20 on the holding mechanism 40 changes, thereby causing the holding mechanism 40 to move from the third position to the fourth position under the indirect action of the holding mechanism 30.

[0069] It is understood that in some embodiments, the storage space 12 can be fully opened when the cover 20 is in the first open state, so that the user can directly take the second device out of the storage space 12.

[0070] In some embodiments, the first opening state is an intermediate state between the closed state and the fully open state. In the first opening state, the space opened in the storage space 12 is relatively small, making it impossible to retrieve or place the second device from the storage space 12. Therefore, the cover 20 is configured to have a second opening state, which is more open than the first opening state.

[0071] Specifically, please refer to Figures 3 to 6 , Figure 6 yes Figure 1 The embodiment shows a schematic diagram of the positional relationship of the cover in the second open state. When the cover 20 is in the closed state, the first side 21 of the cover 20 is basically flush with the corresponding surface of the main body 10, making the first side 21 inoperable.

[0072] When the cover 20 is in the first open position, the first side 21 of the cover 20 is detached from the main body 10, so that the user can operate the first side 21 to drive the cover 20 to rotate, thereby making the cover 20 have a larger opening degree.

[0073] Optionally, the retaining mechanism 40 is configured to also be movable between a fourth position and a fifth position. When the cover 20 changes from a first opening state to a second opening state, the retaining mechanism 40 moves from the fourth position to the fifth position, and the retaining mechanism 40 disengages from the ejection mechanism 30, which is configured to be able to reset from the second position to the first position after disengaging from the retaining mechanism 40.

[0074] It is understandable that when the cover 20 is in the first open position or when the retaining mechanism 40 is in the fourth position, the retaining mechanism 40 can be kept in balance by the forces of the body 10 and the cover 20 at the same time.

[0075] Optionally, the cover 20 acts on the retaining mechanism 40 through the portion adjacent to the second side 22. The second side 22 of the cover 20, the retaining mechanism 40, and the ejection mechanism 30 are arranged sequentially. During the process of the cover 20 moving from the first opening state to the second opening state, the distance between the portion of the cover 20 adjacent to the second side 22 and the main body 10 gradually increases, so that the retaining mechanism 40 in the fourth position can follow the portion of the cover 20 adjacent to the second side 22 and then move to the fifth position.

[0076] Optionally, the fifth position is farther away from the ejector mechanism 30 relative to the fourth position. That is, during the process of the cover 20 moving from the first opening state to the second opening state, the holding mechanism 40 moves from the fourth position, which interferes with the holding mechanism, to the fifth position, which is farther away from the holding mechanism, so that the holding mechanism 40 can be disengaged from the holding mechanism.

[0077] Optionally, the holding mechanism 40 moves along a straight line from the fourth position to the fifth position.

[0078] When the cover 20 changes from the second open state to the closed state, since the holding mechanism 40 has been separated from the ejection mechanism 30, the cover 20 can directly act on the holding mechanism 40 to move it from the fifth position through the fourth position to the third position.

[0079] Please see Figure 7 and Figure 8 , Figure 7 yes Figure 1 A schematic diagram of the connection relationship between the operating unit and the ejection mechanism in the embodiment from one viewpoint. Figure 8 yes Figure 1 A schematic diagram of the connection relationship between the operating part and the ejection mechanism from another perspective in the embodiment.

[0080] In some embodiments, the charging box further includes an operation part 51 disposed on the main body 10, which can be operated to drive the ejection mechanism 30 to move between a first position and a second position.

[0081] The operating part 51 is configured to slide relative to the main body 10 during operation. The operating part 51 may be part of the ejection mechanism 30 or fixedly connected to the ejection mechanism 30, thereby enabling the ejection mechanism 30 to move between a first position and a second position following the sliding of the operating part 51.

[0082] In some embodiments, the operation unit 51 is linked to the ejection mechanism 30, and the linked operation unit 51 and ejection mechanism 30 ensure the accuracy and consistency of operation.

[0083] Optionally, a connecting rod 53 is rotatably connected to the operating part 51, and the ejector mechanism 30 is rotatably connected to the main body 10 and connected to the connecting rod 53 in a higher pair. That is, the operating part 51, the connecting rod 53 and the ejector mechanism 30 are combined to form a crank-connecting rod 53 mechanism, and the ejector mechanism 30 can rotate between the first position and the second position as the operating part 51 slides.

[0084] In this embodiment, during the process of rotating the cover 20 to the first opening position, the ejector mechanism 30 can be moved by the sliding operation part 51. At the same time, during the process of rotating the cover 20 from the second opening position to the closed position, the ejector mechanism 30 can be reset by first sliding the operation part 51 to avoid interference between the ejector mechanism 30 and the holding mechanism 40.

[0085] Please see Figure 2 and Figure 3 Furthermore, in order to enable the ejection mechanism 30 to automatically reset from the second position to the first position after it is freed from interference with the holding mechanism 40, the charging box also includes a reset mechanism 52, which acts on the operation unit 51 to drive the operation unit 51 to automatically reset.

[0086] Optionally, the reset mechanism 52 includes a third magnetic element 521 and a fourth magnetic element 522, which attract each other. The third magnetic element 521 is disposed on the operating part 51, and the fourth magnetic element 522 is disposed on the main body 10.

[0087] Optionally, when the cover 20 is in the closed state, the third magnetic element 521 and the fourth magnetic element 522 are arranged opposite each other to keep the operating part 51 in the initial position. Thus, when the operating part 51 is operated and moves away from the initial position, that is, when the third magnetic element 521 moves away from the fourth magnetic element 522, the mutual attraction between the third magnetic element 521 and the fourth magnetic element 522 causes the operating part 51 and the holding mechanism to tend to reset.

[0088] Optionally, the reset mechanism 52 further includes a fifth magnetic element 523, which is disposed on the main body 10. The fifth magnetic element 523 and the third magnetic element 521 repel each other. When the cover 20 is in the first open state, the third magnetic element 521 and the fifth magnetic element 523 are arranged opposite to each other to drive the operating part 51 to reset to the initial position.

[0089] Please see Figures 9 to 11 , Figure 9 yes Figure 1 A schematic diagram illustrating the connection relationship between the elastic element, the main body, and the retaining mechanism in the embodiment. Figure 10 yes Figure 1 A schematic diagram of the retaining mechanism in the embodiment. Figure 11 yes Figure 1 A partial structural diagram of the main body in the embodiment.

[0090] In some embodiments, in order to enable the ejection mechanism 30 and the retaining mechanism 40 to automatically disengage when the cover 20 changes from a first opening state to a second opening state, so that the cover 20 can subsequently change from the second opening state to a closed state, the charging case also includes an elastic member 60, which is connected to the retaining mechanism 40 and the body 10. The cover 20 is configured to provide a force against the elastic member 60 when the retaining mechanism 40 is in a third position and a fourth position, so that the retaining mechanism 40 can be held in the third position and the fourth position.

[0091] Understandably, the force exerted by the cover 20 on the retaining mechanism 40 and the elastic force exerted by the elastic member 60 on the retaining mechanism 40 are in opposite directions. During the movement of the cover 20 from the first opening state to the second opening state, the distance between the portion of the cover 20 near the second side 22 and the main body 10 gradually increases, causing the force exerted by the cover 20 on the retaining mechanism 40 to decrease. Consequently, the elastic member 60 releases some of its elastic force, driving the retaining mechanism 40 to move from the fourth position to the fifth position, causing the retaining mechanism to move away from the ejector mechanism 30 until the ejector mechanism 30 disengages from the retaining mechanism 40. During the movement of the retaining mechanism 40 from the fourth position to the fifth position, the retaining mechanism 40 can maintain contact with the portion of the cover 20 near the second side 22.

[0092] Optionally, the elastic element 60 includes, but is not limited to, tension springs, sheet springs, etc.

[0093] Optionally, the elastic element 60 is also configured to act on the cover 20 when the retaining mechanism 40 is in the fifth position, so as to keep the cover 20 in the second open state or prevent the cover 20 from closing.

[0094] Specifically, when the cover is in the second open position, that is, when the retaining mechanism 40 is in the fifth position, the end of the retaining mechanism 40 away from the ejection mechanism 30 interacts with the part of the cover 20 near the second side, so that the elastic member 60 can transmit force to the cover 20 through the retaining mechanism 40.

[0095] Please see Figure 7 The specific connection method of the elastic element is described below. The main body 10 is provided with a first connecting part 155, the holding mechanism 40 is provided with a second connecting part 42, the elastic element 60 connects the first connecting part 155 and the second connecting part 42, and the ejection mechanism 30 is located at the end of the second connecting part 42 away from the second side 22.

[0096] Optionally, the first connecting portion 155 is located between the second side 22 and the elastic member 60, and the elastic member 60 is in a stretched state when the holding mechanism 40 is in the third position.

[0097] In this embodiment, the second connecting portion 42 is located at the end of the first connecting portion 155 away from the second side 22. The elastic member 60 can stretch the second connecting portion 42, causing the second connecting portion 42 to drive the holding mechanism 40 to move toward the second side 22, that is, the holding mechanism 40 moves away from the ejection mechanism 30. During the process of the cover 20 rotating from the closed state to the first opening state and the second opening state, the force of the elastic member 60 gradually decreases, and the elastic member 60 is always in a stretched state.

[0098] Optionally, the elastic member 60 is located between the second side 22 and the first connecting portion 155, and the elastic member 60 is in a compressed state when the holding mechanism 40 is in the third position.

[0099] In this embodiment, the second connecting portion 42 is located at the end of the first connecting portion 155 near the second side 22. The elastic member 60 can push the second connecting portion 42 to cause the second connecting portion 42 to move the holding mechanism 40 closer to the second side 22, that is, the holding mechanism 40 moves away from the ejection mechanism 30. During the process of the cover 20 rotating from the closed state to the first opening state and the second opening state, the force of the elastic member 60 gradually decreases, and the elastic member 60 is always in a stretched state.

[0100] Please see Figure 12 , Figure 12 yes Figure 1 This embodiment illustrates the positional relationship of the cover in the third opening state. In some embodiments, the second opening state is an intermediate degree of opening between fully closed and fully open. The user can also manipulate the first side 21 of the cover 20 to further rotate the cover 20 from the second opening state to fully open.

[0101] For example, the cover 20 also has a third opening state, when the cover 20 changes from the second opening state to the third opening state, the cover 20 separates from the retaining mechanism 40.

[0102] Optionally, the retaining mechanism 40 is also configured to move between a fifth position and a sixth position. After the cover 20 is separated from the retaining mechanism 40, the retaining mechanism 40 moves to the sixth position under the drive of the elastic member 60, at which time the elastic member 60 is in a free state.

[0103] Please see Figure 4 The following describes a specific implementation of the interference between the ejection mechanism and the holding mechanism. In some embodiments, one of the ejection mechanism 30 and the holding mechanism 40 is provided with a buckle 31, and the other of the ejection mechanism 30 and the holding mechanism 40 is provided with a slot 41 that cooperates with the buckle 31. In the first open state, the ejection mechanism 30 and the holding mechanism 40 are engaged by the buckle 31 and the slot 41.

[0104] Optionally, in conjunction with the aforementioned implementation of the ejection mechanism 30 having a second protrusion, the buckle 31 and the second protrusion can be of the same structure, that is, the buckle 31 is provided on the ejection mechanism 30, and the slot 41 is provided on the holding mechanism 40.

[0105] In this embodiment, by setting the buckle 31 and the slot 41 structure, the ejection mechanism 30 can be quickly locked with the holding mechanism 40 when it moves to the second position, so that the ejection mechanism 30 can be stably held in the second position, thereby keeping the cover 20 in the first opening state.

[0106] In some embodiments, the ejection mechanism 30 and the holding mechanism 40 may also cooperate through friction or other means.

[0107] In some embodiments, the aforementioned cover 20 and the main body 10 are connected by magnetic attraction. Specifically, the charging case also includes a first magnetic element 23 and a second magnetic element 14. The first magnetic element 23 is disposed on a first side 21 of the cover 20, and the second magnetic element 14 is disposed on the main body 10. The first magnetic element 23 and the second magnetic element 14 attract each other to keep the cover 20 in a closed state.

[0108] Optionally, the first magnetic element 23 is disposed on the first side 21 of the cover 20. When the cover 20 is in the closed state, the second magnetic element 14 is located opposite the main body 10 and the first magnetic element 23, so as to ensure that the attraction between the first magnetic element 23 and the second magnetic element 14 can effectively fix the position of the cover 20. It can be understood that as the cover 20 is gradually opened from the closed state, the first magnetic element 23 and the second magnetic element 14 move away from each other, and the magnetic attraction between the cover 20 and the main body 10 gradually decreases.

[0109] Please see Figure 2 and Figure 3 In some embodiments, the main body 10 includes a first structural member 15, a second structural member 16 and a third structural member 17, and each structural member is detachably and fixedly connected, specifically by bolt connection or snap-fit ​​connection 31.

[0110] The first structural member 15 and the second structural member 16 are connected by a pivot 13. The second side 22 of the cover 20 can be connected to the pivot 13 first, and then the first structural member 15 and the second structural member 16 can be fixed to facilitate the pivotal connection between the cover 20 and the main body 10.

[0111] The third structural member 17 and the first structural member 15 enclose and form an installation cavity 18. The installation cavity 18 is independent of the charging space 11 and the storage space 12. It is used to accommodate the ejection mechanism 30 and the holding mechanism 40 to ensure the aesthetics of the charging box and to prevent the ejection mechanism 30 and the holding mechanism 40 from being damaged by external impact.

[0112] The first structural member 15 is provided with a first clearance hole 151 and a second clearance hole 152. The first clearance hole 151 can allow the ejection mechanism 30 to extend from the mounting cavity 18 so as to act on the cover 20 outside the mounting cavity 18. The second clearance hole 152 can allow the holding mechanism 40 to extend from the mounting cavity 18 so as to allow the cover 20 outside the mounting cavity 18 to act on the holding mechanism 40.

Any equivalent device or equivalent process transformation made based on the content of this application specification and drawings, or direct or indirect application in other related technical fields, are similarly included in the patent protection scope of this application.
