Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of atomizing device technology, and mainly relates to the switching structure of atomizing devices. Background Technology
[0002] Portable electronic atomizing devices, such as e-cigarettes and eye massagers, require good hygiene and anti-misoperation features for daily use. Some existing atomizing devices expose the atomizing nozzle, which is easily contaminated with dust or foreign matter when not in use, affecting hygiene. To protect the nozzle, some products use independent dust covers or flip-top covers, but these structures require separate opening and closing or storage, making them cumbersome to use, and the dust covers are prone to falling off or being lost. Other products use flip-tops with springs or buttons to cover the mouthpiece, but these structures are complex, increasing manufacturing difficulty and cost, and are inconvenient to operate. Furthermore, atomizers lacking reliable switch locking may be accidentally triggered or slipped open due to friction inside the bag during transport, leading to accidental opening, wasting atomized medication, contaminating the bag, and also contaminating the atomizing device itself. Summary of the Invention
[0003] The purpose of this utility model is to overcome the shortcomings of the existing technology and provide an atomizing device that can effectively cover the atomizing nozzle to prevent pollution, has a simple and reliable structure, and is easy to operate, using a sliding magnetic positioning switch.
[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows: A nebulizer employing a sliding magnetic positioning switch includes a housing, a battery and a control main board housed in the lower battery compartment of the housing, a spray nozzle and a longitudinal groove spaced apart in the middle of the side wall of the housing, a sliding switch plate housed inside the housing and capable of being pushed to block the spray nozzle, a switch button located on the outer surface of the housing and fixedly connected to the sliding switch plate via a connecting post passing through the groove, a nebulizer located inside the housing with its mist outlet facing the spray nozzle on the housing, and a liquid storage bottle that can be mounted on the nebulizer; both the sliding switch plate and the nebulizer are... It is electrically connected to the control motherboard; the housing is a double-layered housing including an outer shell and an inner shell, the inner shell is located in the middle section of the outer shell which is provided with a spray nozzle and a sliding groove, the sliding switch piece is located between the outer shell and the inner shell, the outer shell spray nozzle and the inner shell spray nozzle are respectively provided on the outer shell and the inner shell, and the sliding switch piece is provided with a channel hole that can align with the outer shell spray nozzle and the inner shell spray nozzle; a magnet piece is provided at the middle and lower end of the inner side of the sliding switch piece, and two ferromagnetic pieces that can be attracted to the magnet piece are correspondingly provided on the side of the inner shell facing the magnet piece.
[0005] Furthermore, a guide groove is provided longitudinally on the inner shell, and the sliding switch piece is placed in the guide groove. The lower section of the guide groove is deeper than the upper section, and the ferromagnetic component is placed in the lower section. Inner folded edges that match the guide groove are provided on both sides of the lower section of the sliding switch piece. The inner folded edges are inserted into the guide groove and closely adhere to the guide groove. The sliding switch piece is pushed to slide back and forth along the guide groove.
[0006] Furthermore, on the mating surfaces of the inner folded edge and the guide groove, two pairs of convex ribs and grooves that can be engaged and positioned are respectively provided on the inner folded edge and the guide groove. The convex ribs and grooves form a limiting structure to limit the travel of the sliding switch piece in the open and closed positions.
[0007] Furthermore, the atomizing device includes an atomizing housing, an atomizing body disposed within the atomizing housing, an atomizer disposed on one side of the atomizing body, and an atomizing chamber opened within the atomizing body and communicating with the atomizer. The atomizer is connected to a wire of an external control main board, and the wire is connected to the control main board. A mist outlet communicating with the atomizer is opened on the side wall of the atomizing housing, and the mist outlet is directly opposite the spray port of the inner shell. The atomizer is electrically connected to the control main board.
[0008] Furthermore, a charging port for the internal battery is provided on the bottom or side wall of the casing.
[0009] This invention employs a sliding magnetic positioning switch. An inner shell is constructed within the middle section of the outer shell, which contains the spray nozzle and a sliding groove. The sliding switch piece is positioned between the outer and inner shells, effectively concealing it within the double-layered structure and preventing contamination from the liquid mist sprayed by the atomizing device. A magnet is mounted on the sliding switch piece, and a corresponding ferromagnetic element is positioned on the inner shell to attract it. Magnetic attraction is used for positioning the sliding switch piece. During the reciprocating motion of the sliding switch piece, a corresponding magnet is always engaged with the ferromagnetic element at the designated travel positions (on and off), enhancing the stability of the switch's positioning in both open and closed positions. When the sliding switch piece is in the closed or open position, at least one magnet is engaged with the ferromagnetic element, forming a magnetic lock. The switch structure is simple and reliable; the sliding switch piece is not easily opened, and operation is very convenient. The magnet at the lower end of the sliding switch piece also serves to trigger the switch on the main control board. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation
[0011] The contents of this utility model will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0012] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 5 As shown, an atomizing device employing a sliding magnetic positioning switch includes a housing 1, a battery 7 and a control board 6 disposed in the lower battery compartment inside the housing, a spray nozzle 1a and a longitudinal groove 1b disposed at intervals in the middle of the side wall of the housing, a sliding switch 2 disposed inside the housing and capable of being pushed to block the spray nozzle, a switch button 3 disposed on the outer surface of the housing and fixedly connected to the sliding switch 3 by a connecting post passing through the groove, an atomizing device 4 disposed inside the housing with its mist outlet facing the spray nozzle on the housing, and a liquid storage bottle 5 that can be mounted on the atomizing device; the sliding switch 2 and the atomizing device 4 are both electrically connected to the control board 6; the housing has a base 1c.
[0013] like Figure 1 , Figure 3 As shown, an inner shell 8 is provided in the middle section of the outer shell 1. The inner shell and the outer shell can be molded as one piece or made into separate parts. The battery and the control board are installed in the inner shell. The sliding switch piece 2 is disposed between the outer shell and the inner shell. An inner shell spray port 8a is provided on the upper part of the inner shell, which is aligned with the outer shell spray port 1a. A channel hole 2a is provided on the sliding switch piece, which can align with the inner shell spray port and the outer shell spray port. A magnet piece 2b is provided on the middle and lower end of the inner side of the sliding switch piece, and two ferromagnetic parts 8c, which can be attracted to the magnet piece, are provided on the side of the inner shell facing the magnet piece. When the sliding switch piece slides down, its lower end can slide into the battery compartment, and the lower magnet piece 2b approaches the Hall switch on the control board. The switch is turned on by sensing, and the atomizer is controlled by the control board.
[0014] By manually pushing the switch button 3 back and forth along the longitudinal slide groove, the sliding switch piece can slide between the closed and open positions. In the closed position, the sliding switch piece moves to cover the outer shell spray nozzle and the inner shell spray nozzle, sealing and blocking the spray nozzles. In the open position, the sliding switch piece moves to the channel hole 2a and aligns with the outer shell spray nozzle 1a and the inner shell spray nozzle 8a, fully exposing the spray nozzles. The liquid mist sprayed by the atomizing device can then be sprayed through the channel hole and spray nozzles and applied to the areas of the human body that need mist (such as the eyes and mouth). When the sliding switch piece slides upward to the closed position, the magnet 2b on it attracts the ferromagnetic part 8c located on the upper part of the outer shell, achieving magnetic positioning of the sliding switch piece in the closed position. When the sliding switch piece slides downward to the open position, the magnet in the middle attracts the ferromagnetic part located on the lower part of the outer shell, attracting and positioning the sliding switch piece, firmly holding it in the open position. At the same time, the magnet at the lower part approaches the Hall switch and energizes it. The magnetic positioning structure described above creates a clear magnetic snap-fit effect at both ends of the sliding switch piece (closed and open positions), providing a distinct tactile feel for the user. This magnetic positioning structure is simple and reliable, eliminating the need for complex mechanical latches or spring structures. Magnetic force ensures reliable positioning and stable magnetic attraction of the sliding switch piece in both on and off states, preventing improper operation and preventing the switch piece from opening even with slight friction.
[0015] Figure 4 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of a sliding switch piece connected to a switch button. Figure 4 In the diagram, (a) is a schematic view from the outside of the sliding switch piece, and (b) is a schematic view from the inside of the sliding switch piece. To ensure that the sliding switch piece does not deviate or wobble during sliding, a guide and limiting structure is provided to restrict the sliding of the sliding switch piece. A typical limiting structure is as follows: Figure 3 , Figure 4 , Figure 5 As shown, a guide groove 8b is longitudinally arranged on the inner shell, and the sliding switch piece is placed in the guide groove. The lower section of the guide groove is deeper than the upper section, and the ferromagnetic component 8c is placed in the lower deep groove. Inner folded edges 2c, which mate with the guide groove, are provided on both sides of the lower section of the sliding switch piece. The inner folded edges are inserted into and tightly adhere to the guide groove, allowing the sliding switch piece to slide back and forth along the guide groove. The lower section of the guide groove is deeper than the upper section, forming a step between the shallow and deep sections. The upper end of the inner folded edge of the sliding switch piece also serves as a limiting element, preventing excessive sliding due to the step between the shallow and deep sections of the guide groove. To facilitate the placement of the magnet piece, this embodiment has a protruding circular groove 2e on the back of the interactive switch piece facing the switch button, into which the central magnet piece is placed. Figure 4 The magnet is not shown in the drawing.
[0016] The atomizing device can be a device using existing technology. The atomizing device in this embodiment is as follows: Figure 1 , Figure 5 As shown, it includes an atomizing housing 4a, an atomizing body 4b disposed within the atomizing housing, an atomizer 4c disposed on one side of the atomizing body, and an atomizing chamber 4d opened within the atomizing body and communicating with the atomizer 4c. The atomizer is connected to a wire of an external control main board, and the wire is connected to the control main board. A mist outlet 4e communicating with the atomizer is opened on the side wall of the atomizing housing, and the mist outlet 4e is directly opposite the spray port 8a of the inner shell. Figure 5 As shown, a ferromagnetic metal sheet 9 is provided at the bottom of the atomizing housing 4a, and a magnet 10 is provided at the top of the battery compartment. This allows the portable atomizing device to be magnetically connected to the battery compartment after being placed inside the housing 1, making it easy to install and remove. When the liquid in the storage bottle is used up, the portable atomizing device can be removed to replace the storage bottle, or the entire portable atomizing device can be replaced, making it very convenient to use.
[0017] This invention features a charging port for an internal battery located at the bottom or side wall of the casing, through which the battery is charged. The battery powers the control motherboard.
[0018] This invention employs a double-layer shell structure, with the sliding switch piece sliding within the double-layer shell. A magnetic adsorption positioning control is used to adjust the opening and closing position of the sliding switch piece. Furthermore, a guide and limiting mechanism is incorporated to prevent the sliding switch piece from shifting or wobbling. Through the organic combination of these components, a simple, reliable, and easy-to-use switch structure for atomizing devices is provided. This structure effectively prevents external dust from entering the interior and prevents internal atomizing liquid from contaminating the sliding switch piece. It also avoids the problem of dust cover separation and loss common in existing technologies. The sliding switch piece is also not easily pried open, effectively addressing the shortcomings of existing technologies.
[0019] This utility model is applicable to handheld eye moisturizing devices (or eye care devices), oral nebulizers, electronic cigarettes and other atomizing devices, and is especially applicable to eye moisturizing devices. This embodiment is used in an eye moisturizing device.
[0020] The working principle of this invention is as follows: When the atomizing device is needed, the user holds the outer shell 1 and flicks the switch button 3 with their finger, overcoming the attraction of the magnet and magnetic attractant in the closed position, and pushes the sliding switch to the open position along the longitudinal groove 1b. During the movement of the sliding switch, the user will feel a change in the magnetic attraction: initially there is slight resistance, and as the sliding switch slides towards the closed position, the magnet and magnetic attractant that were originally attracted together will gradually detach. When it slides into place, the new corresponding magnet and magnetic attractant will attract each other and stick together, achieving the closed positioning, producing a slight "click" positioning sound or a noticeable attraction feel. Conversely, when the sliding switch slides towards the open position, the magnet and magnetic attractant that were originally attracted together will gradually detach. When it slides into place, the new corresponding magnet and magnetic attractant will attract each other and stick together, achieving the open positioning, producing a slight "click" positioning sound or a noticeable attraction feel. This sudden physical feedback allows the user to clearly perceive that the sliding switch has been positioned and opened. When the sliding switch is in the open position, the channel hole 2a aligns with the outer shell spray nozzle 1a and the inner shell spray nozzle 8a, fully exposing the spray nozzle. The sliding switch triggers the Hall switch, which in turn activates the atomizing head of the atomizing device, starting it to operate. The atomizing head atomizes the liquid entering the atomizing chamber from the storage bottle, and the resulting mist is sprayed out through the channel hole and spray nozzle. When not in use, the sliding switch is reversed to the closed position, displacing the channel hole and spray nozzle. The sliding switch covers the spray nozzle and is magnetically held in place, separating the sliding switch from the control board contacts. The control board then disconnects the power to the atomizing head, stopping the atomization of the liquid. At this time, the sliding switch seals the spray nozzle, preventing dust, moisture, or foreign objects from entering and keeping the interior clean. The magnet on the sliding switch not only positions the switch but also slides into the battery compartment to contact the Hall switch on the control board for energizing and de-energizing.
[0021] This invention can also provide an annular flange or soft sealing element on the inner surface or edge of the sliding switch piece, which is pressed tightly against the periphery of the spray nozzle to achieve a dustproof and sealing effect.
[0022] The terms "upper," "lower," "left," "right," "inner," and "outer" used in this manual to describe relative positions are only relative to the accompanying drawings and are used to facilitate the description of the positional relationships between the components. They do not constitute a limitation on the positional relationships of the components in the actual product.
[0023] It should be noted that this utility model is not limited to the above embodiments. Without departing from the spirit of this utility model, those skilled in the art can make equivalent changes to the specific parameters, material selection, and processing methods of each component. All modifications and variations made using structures and principles that are the same as or similar to the concept of this utility model should be included within the protection scope of this utility model.
