The housing assembly has a liquid storage chamber and a mounting chamber. The atomizer is housed in the liquid storage chamber, and the control component is housed in the mounting chamber. The housing assembly includes at least a cup body, a seal, and a support. A first cavity is formed within the cup body, and the seal and support are sequentially housed within the cup body. The cup body and seal enclose the liquid storage chamber, and the cup body, seal, and support enclose the mounting chamber. When assembling the aerosol generating device, the atomizer is first placed in the first cavity, then the seal is inserted into the cup body, so that the seal and cup body enclose the liquid storage chamber. Next, the control component is placed into the cup body, and then the support is inserted into the cup body to complete the assembly.

[0024] An aerosol generator is a product that can turn a liquid atomized matrix into an aerosol through heating or other means.

[0025] In related technologies, aerosol generating devices generally include main components such as an atomizer, a main circuit, and a housing assembly. The housing assembly has a liquid storage chamber and a mounting chamber. The atomizer is housed in the liquid storage chamber, and the control component is housed in the mounting chamber. The housing assembly includes at least a cup body, a seal, and a support. A first cavity is formed within the cup body, and the seal and support are sequentially housed within the cup body. The cup body and seal enclose the liquid storage chamber, and the cup body, seal, and support enclose the mounting chamber. When assembling the aerosol generating device, the atomizer is first placed in the first cavity, then the seal is inserted into the cup body, so that the seal and cup body enclose the liquid storage chamber. Next, the control component is placed into the cup body, and then the support is inserted into the cup body to complete the assembly. To replenish the aerosol generating matrix into the atomizer, the support, control component, and seal need to be disassembled. Then, the aerosol generating matrix is ​​injected into the first cavity. After injection, the seal is inserted into the cup body, the control component is placed into the cup body, and then the support is inserted into the cup body to complete the assembly. The process of replenishing aerosols to generate a matrix is ​​quite complicated.

[0026] In view of the above problems, this application provides an aerosol generating device, which aims to solve the technical problem that the process of replenishing the aerosol generating matrix in the aerosol generating device is relatively cumbersome.

[0027] To illustrate the technical solution of this application, the following description is provided in conjunction with specific accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0028] Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of an aerosol generating apparatus according to one embodiment of this application. Figure 2 This is a cross-sectional view of the aerosol generating device. Figure 3 This is an exploded structural diagram of an aerosol generating device according to one embodiment of this application. The aerosol generating device includes a housing assembly 1000, a control assembly 2000, and an atomizer 3000. The housing assembly 1000 is configured with a mounting groove 1100 and a suction air passage 1200. The control assembly 2000 is disposed in the housing assembly 1000. The atomizer 3000 is configured with an atomizing air passage 3100, and the atomizer 3000 is housed in the mounting groove 1100. The atomizer 3000 is in elastic contact with and electrically connected to the control assembly 2000, and the atomizing air passage 3100 is connected to the suction air passage 1200. The atomizer 3000 is detachably or rotatably connected to the housing assembly 1000.

[0029] Figure 4 This is an exploded structural diagram of the housing assembly 1000, which includes an outer shell 1300, a suction nozzle 1400, and a base 1500. The outer shell 1300 includes a main body 1310 and a mounting portion 1320. The main body 1310 is a cylindrical structure open at both ends. A first groove 1311 is formed on the side wall of the main body 1310. The mounting portion 1320 is located inside the main body 1310 and is connected to the end face surrounding the first groove 1311. The mounting portion 1320 encloses and forms a mounting groove 1100, or the mounting portion 1320 and the main body 1310 enclose and form a mounting groove 1100. A first suction hole 1321 is formed on the mounting portion 1320. The suction nozzle 1400 is connected to the main body 1310 and has a second suction hole 1410. The first suction port 1321 and the second suction port 1410 form a suction airway 1200. The base 1500 connects to the end of the main body 1310 away from the nozzle 1400, so that the base 1500, the main body 1310 and the mounting part 1320 enclose and form a mounting cavity 1600. When the aerosol generating device is being suctioned, the control component 2000 controls the atomizing component 3400 to work. The airflow path is: atomizing airway 3100 → first suction port 1321 → second suction port 1410, so that the aerosol generated by the atomizing component 3400 flows out of the aerosol generating device.

[0030] Please refer to Figure 3The control component 2000 includes a battery, a control board, and other structures. The battery provides power to the control board and the atomizer 3000. The control board controls the operating status of the atomizer 3000 (whether it is working, its operating power, etc.). The control component 2000 is disposed on the housing component 1000, that is, the control component 2000 is fixed to the main body 1310 by means of screws, snap-fit ​​structures, etc. The control component 2000 is housed in the mounting cavity 1600. The mounting part 1320 is also provided with a insertion through hole 1322. A second electrical component 2100 on the control component 2000 for electrical connection with the atomizer 3000 is housed in the insertion through hole 1322.

[0031] When the atomizer 3000 is received in the mounting slot 1100 via the first slot 1311, one opening of the atomizing airway 3100 is opposite to and communicates with the first suction port 1321, thereby connecting the atomizing airway 3100 with the suction airway 1200. A first electrical component 3600 on the atomizer 3000, used for electrical connection with the control assembly 2000, contacts the aforementioned second electrical component 2100, thereby electrically connecting the first electrical component 3600 and the second electrical component 2100, and enabling the atomizer 3000 to elastically contact and electrically connect with the control assembly 2000. Optionally, a portion of the second electrical component 2100 passes through the insertion hole 1322 and is located within the mounting slot 1100 to facilitate contact between the first electrical component 3600 and the second electrical component 2100.

[0032] Optionally, at least one of the first electrical component 3600 and the second electrical component 2100 is an elastic conductive needle, so that the first electrical component 3600 and the second electrical component 2100 can elastically contact and be electrically connected, which can provide continuous and stable contact pressure on the contact surface of the first electrical component 3600 and the second electrical component 2100, effectively overcoming the problem of poor contact caused by vibration, thereby improving the reliability of the electrical connection between the atomizer 3000 and the control component 2000.

[0033] Please refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3 The atomizer 3000 includes a liquid storage chamber 3200, an injection port 3300 communicating with the liquid storage chamber 3200, and an atomizing component 3400 disposed in the liquid storage chamber 3200. The liquid storage chamber 3200 is used to store the aerosol generation matrix, and the atomizing component 3400 is used to atomize the aerosol generation matrix in the liquid storage chamber 3200 to generate aerosol in the atomizing air passage 3100.

[0034] The atomizer 3000 is detachably connected to the housing assembly 1000. That is, the atomizer 3000 is embedded in the mounting groove 1100 through the first slot 1311, so that the atomizer 3000 is connected to the housing assembly 1000. The atomizer 3000 can be removed from the mounting groove 1100 through the first slot 1311, so that the atomizer 3000 is detached from the housing assembly 1000, so that the liquid injection hole 3300 is exposed to the outside, so as to replenish the atomizer 3000 with the aerosol generating device.

[0035] The atomizer 3000 is rotatably connected to the housing assembly 1000, meaning that the atomizer 3000 can rotate relative to the housing assembly 1000, such that the atomizer 3000 can rotate to be received in the mounting groove 1100 through the first slot 1311, or that the atomizer 3000 can rotate to the point where part of the atomizer 3000 is detached from the mounting groove 1100 through the first slot 1311, exposing the liquid injection hole 3300 to facilitate the replenishment of the atomizer 3000 with the aerosol generating device.

[0036] In the aerosol generating apparatus provided in this application embodiment, since the atomizer 3000 is detachably housed in the mounting slot 1100, when it is necessary to replenish the atomizer 3000 with the aerosol generating matrix, it is only necessary to remove the atomizer 3000 from the mounting slot 1100 to inject the aerosol generating matrix into the atomizer 3000. Since the atomizer 3000 is rotatably connected to the housing assembly 1000, when it is necessary to replenish the atomizer 3000 with the aerosol generating matrix, an external force is applied to the atomizer 3000, causing the atomizer 3000 to rotate relative to the housing assembly 1000, so that at least a portion of the atomizer 3000 is moved out of the mounting slot 1100, facilitating the replenishment of the atomizer 3000 with the aerosol generating matrix. Therefore, the aerosol generating apparatus provided in this application embodiment facilitates the replenishment of the aerosol generating matrix.

[0037] It should be noted that, since the aerosol generating device provided in this application embodiment facilitates the replenishment of aerosol generating matrix to the atomizer 3000, the utilization rate of structures such as the control component 2000, the housing component 1000, and the atomizing core in the atomizer 3000 can be improved, and the service life of the aerosol generating device can be extended.

[0038] In some embodiments, when the atomizer 3000 is embedded in the mounting groove 1100, the end face around the opening of the injection hole 3300 is attached to the inner wall of the mounting groove 1100, so that the inner wall of the mounting groove 1100 can seal the injection hole 3300, preventing dust, lint, etc. from entering the liquid storage chamber 3200 through the injection hole 3300, and preventing the aerosol generation matrix in the liquid storage chamber 3200 from flowing out of the liquid storage chamber 3200 through the injection hole 3300.

[0039] In other embodiments, the atomizer 3000 includes a plugging member that is detachably inserted into the injection port 3300 to block the injection port 3300.

[0040] Please refer to Figure 4 In some embodiments, the housing assembly 1000 further includes a liquid suction member 1700, located between the nozzle 1400 and the mounting portion 1320. The liquid suction member 1700 has a connecting hole 1710. One end of the connecting hole 1710 is directly opposite to and communicates with the first suction hole 1321, and the other end of the connecting hole 1710, away from the first suction hole 1321, is directly opposite to and communicates with the second suction hole 1410. The first suction hole 1321, the connecting hole 1710, and the second suction hole 1410 form a suction channel. When the aerosol generating device is suctioned, the airflow path is: atomizing airway 3100 → first suction hole 1321 → connecting hole 1710 → second suction hole 1410.

[0041] In some embodiments, the housing assembly 1000 includes a first surface 1323 and a second surface 1324 disposed opposite to each other, and a mounting groove 1100 is recessed from the first surface 1323 toward the second surface 1324. The atomizer 3000 is embedded in the mounting groove 1100.

[0042] In the above embodiment, the housing assembly 1000 includes a first surface 1323 and a second surface 1324 disposed opposite to each other, that is, the main body portion 1310 includes a first surface 1323 and a second surface 1324 disposed opposite to each other. The mounting groove 1100 is recessed from the first surface 1323 toward the second surface 1324, that is, a first groove 1311 is formed on the first surface 1323, one end of the mounting portion 1320 is connected to the first surface 1323, and the other end of the mounting portion 1320 away from the first surface 1323 extends toward the second surface 1324.

[0043] Please refer to Figure 4 In the above embodiment, the mounting part 1320 includes a base plate 1325, a top plate 1326 (with a first suction hole 1321 formed on the top plate 1326), and two side plates 1327. The two side plates 1327 are arranged opposite to each other. The two ends of the base plate 1325 are respectively connected to the lower ends of the two side plates 1327, and the top plate 1326 is respectively connected to the upper ends of the two side plates 1327, so that the base plate 1325, the top plate 1326, and the two side plates 1327 enclose a through groove. The first slot 1311 is opposite to and communicates with one of the slots of the through groove. The second surface 1324 covers the slot of the through groove that is away from the first surface 1323, so that the base plate 1325, the top plate 1326, the two side plates 1327, and the second surface 1324 enclose a mounting groove 1100. The atomizer 3000 can be embedded in the mounting groove 1100 through the first slot 1311.

[0044] Optionally, the main body 1310 and the mounting part 1320 are integrally formed.

[0045] Please refer to Figure 3 and Figure 4 In some embodiments, the housing assembly 1000 includes a first surface 1323 and a second surface 1324 disposed opposite to each other, and a mounting groove 1100 extends through the first surface 1323 and the second surface 1324. The atomizer 3000 is embedded in the mounting groove 1100.

[0046] In the above embodiment, a second slot 1312 is formed on the second surface 1324. The second slot 1312 is opposite to and connected to the through groove formed by the mounting part 1320 and away from the slot of the first surface 1323, so that the mounting groove 1100 is a through groove.

[0047] Alternatively, a second slot 1312 may be formed on the second surface 1324. The second slot 1312 is opposite to and communicates with the portion of the through groove formed by the mounting portion 1320 that is away from the first surface 1323, so that the second surface 1324 covers the portion of the through groove formed by the mounting portion 1320 that is away from the first surface 1323. This allows the second surface 1324 to not only serve a positioning function to assist the atomizer 3000 in being installed in a preset position when it is embedded in the mounting groove 1100, but also to limit the position of the atomizer 3000 embedded in the mounting groove 1100, so as to prevent the atomizer 3000 from sliding out of the second slot 1312.

[0048] In the above embodiment, the mounting groove 1100 extends through the first surface 1323 and the second surface 1324, which facilitates the application of external force to the atomizer 3000 embedded in the mounting groove 1100. That is, when it is necessary to remove the atomizer 3000 from the mounting groove 1100, external force is applied to the atomizer 3000 through the second slot 1312 to push the atomizer 3000 out of the mounting groove 1100.

[0049] Please refer to Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 In some embodiments, a first guide limiting part is provided on the inner wall of the mounting groove 1100, and a second guide limiting part corresponding to the first guide limiting part is provided on the side of the atomizer 3000. The second guide limiting part cooperates with the first guide limiting part to detachably lock the atomizer 3000 in the mounting groove 1100.

[0050] In the above embodiment, the first guide limiting part is one of the slot 1110 and the locking block 3500, and the second guide limiting part is the other of the slot 1110 and the locking block 3500. The locking block 3500 is engaged in the slot 1110 to fix the atomizer 3000 in the mounting slot 1100.

[0051] Please refer to Figure 4 In some embodiments, the slot 1110 includes a guide sub-slot 1111 and a limiting sub-slot 1112. The guide sub-slot 1111 serves as a guide, and the limiting sub-slot 1112 serves as a limiting position. When the atomizer 3000 is embedded into the mounting slot 1100 through the first slot 1311, the locking block 3500 first slides in the guide sub-slot 1111 and guides the atomizer 3000 to limit its movement direction. Then, the locking block 3500 moves out through the guide sub-slot 1111 and slides into the limiting sub-slot 1112, whereby the locking block 3500 is locked in the limiting sub-slot 1112, i.e., the atomizer 3000 is locked in the mounting slot 1100.

[0052] Please refer to Figure 3 In some embodiments, the first guide limiting part is a slot 1110, and the guide sub-slot 1111 is located on the side of the limiting sub-slot 1112 near the first slot opening 1311. The end of the guide sub-slot 1111 facing the first surface 1323 penetrates the first surface 1323 to facilitate the insertion of the locking block 3500 into the guide sub-slot 1111. The inner wall surface of the guide sub-slot 1111 facing the first slot opening 1311 is an inclined surface to facilitate the removal of the locking block 3500 from the guide sub-slot 1111. The second guide limiting part is a locking block 3500, which has a guide slope. When the atomizer 3000 is embedded in the mounting slot 1100, the end of the guide slope near the first surface 1323 is located below the end of the guide slope near the second surface 1324. On the one hand, it can prevent the locking block 3500 from detaching from the limiting sub-slot 1112; on the other hand, when the atomizer 3000 is embedded in the mounting slot 1100 through the first slot 1311, it is convenient for the locking block 3500 to slide into the guide sub-slot 1111 and into the limiting sub-slot 1112.

[0053] Optionally, the first guide limiter is constructed on at least one of the base plate 1325 and the two side plates 1327.

[0054] Please refer to Figure 2 In some embodiments, the atomizer 3000 includes a first electrical component 3600 disposed on a side of the atomizer 3000. The control assembly 2000 includes a second electrical component 2100 disposed on a side wall of the mounting groove 1100.

The atomizing assembly 3400 includes a conductive pin 3420, which extends out of the liquid reservoir 3200 through the air inlet channel. A first electrical component 3600 is inserted into the liquid reservoir 3700, and the first electrical component 3600 contacts and electrically connects to the conductive pin 3420.

[0062] In the above embodiment, when the aerosol generating device is drawn in, the airflow path is: air inlet channel → atomization channel 3410 → air outlet 3710 → first suction hole 1321 → connecting hole 1710 → second suction hole 1410.

[0063] Please refer to Figure 9 and Figure 10 In some embodiments, the liquid storage chamber 3700 includes a cup body 3720, a first cup lid 3730, and a second cup lid 3740. The cup body 3720 is a cylindrical structure with one end open, and an air vent 3710 is formed on the cup body 3720. The first cup lid 3730 is connected to the cup body 3720, and the first cup lid 3730 and the cup body 3720 together form a liquid storage cavity 3200. A first air inlet 3731 is formed on the first cup lid 3730. The second cup lid 3740 is connected to the cup body 3720. The second cup lid 3740 is located on the side of the first cup lid 3730 away from the air outlet 3710. The second cup lid 3740, the first cup lid 3730 and the cup body 3720 enclose a buffer cavity 3750. The second cup lid 3740 and / or the cup body 3720 are provided with a second air inlet 3741 that communicates with the buffer cavity 3750. The second air inlet 3741, the buffer cavity 3750 and the first air inlet 3731 enclose an air intake channel.

[0065] In the above embodiment, when the aerosol generating device is drawn in, the flow path of the airflow is: second air inlet 3741 → buffer chamber 3750 → first air inlet 3731 → atomization channel 3410 → air outlet 3710 → first suction hole 1321 → connecting hole 1710 → second suction hole 1410.

[0066] Please refer to Figure 9 and Figure 10 In the above embodiment, the conductive pin 3420 extends out of the liquid storage cavity 3200 through the first air inlet 3731. The first cup lid 3730 has a insertion groove 3732, and the second cup lid 3740 has an insertion hole 3742. The first electrical component 3600 is inserted into the insertion hole 3742, and the first electrical component 3600 passes through the insertion hole 3742 and is partially inserted into the insertion groove 3732, so that the conductive pin 3420 is clamped between the inner walls of the insertion groove 3732 of the first electrical component 3600. This allows the first electrical component 3600 to contact and electrically connect with the conductive pin 3420, and improves the stability of the connection between the first electrical component 3600 and the conductive pin 3420.
