[0037] 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).
[0038] like Figures 1 to 10 As shown, this application provides an electronic atomizing device 1, which can atomize a liquid aerosol matrix to generate an aerosol for user use. The electronic atomizing device 1 may include an atomizer 10 and a main unit 20. The atomizer 10 is used to atomize the aerosol matrix to generate an aerosol. The main unit 20 is detachably connected to the atomizer 10 and is used to supply power to the atomizer 10.
[0039] It should be noted that the electronic atomizing device 1 can be in various shapes such as polygonal, cylindrical, polygonal columnar, elliptical columnar, irregular columnar, ellipsoidal, spherical, hemispherical, etc., and no specific limitation is made here.
[0040] The electronic atomizing device 1 may have a first direction X, a second direction Y, and a third direction Z that are mutually perpendicular. For example, in Figure 1 In the illustrated embodiment, the electronic atomizing device 1 is generally a flat rectangular body, having a height direction, a width direction, and a thickness direction. The width direction is also the first direction X, the thickness direction is the second direction Y, and the height direction is the third direction Z. Its atomizer 10 is detachably connected to the main unit 20 along the third direction Z.
[0041] like Figures 2 to 4 As shown, in some embodiments, the atomizer 10 may include a housing 11, a liquid storage chamber, a liquid guiding chamber, an atomizing component 13, a state transition component 14, a first control component 15, and a first battery cell 12. The liquid storage chamber, liquid guiding chamber, atomizing component 13, state transition component 14, first control component 15, and first battery cell 12 are all disposed within the housing 11. The liquid storage chamber is provided with a liquid storage cavity 111, and the liquid guiding chamber is provided with a liquid guiding cavity 112. Both the liquid storage cavity 111 and the liquid guiding cavity 112 are used to store liquid aerosol matrix. The liquid storage cavity 111 can also replenish the liquid guiding cavity 112 with aerosol matrix in response to a position change of the state transition component 14.
[0042] The atomizing component 13 is in liquid-guiding communication with the liquid guiding chamber 112. The aerosol matrix in the liquid guiding chamber 112 flows to the atomizing component 13 and is atomized by the atomizing component 13 to generate an aerosol. The first control component 15 is electrically connected to both the atomizing component 13 and the first battery cell 12, and is used to control the operation of the electronic atomizing device 1. For example, the first control component 15 can control the operating state of the atomizing component 13 in response to a change in the position of the state transition component 14. The first battery cell 12 is used to provide electrical energy for the atomization operation of the atomizer 10.
[0043] The state transition component 14 can move back and forth between the first position and the second position to switch the liquid connection state between the liquid storage chamber 111 and the liquid guiding chamber 112, and to switch the control of the atomizing component 13 by the first control component 15.
[0044] like Figure 3 As shown, when the state transition component 14 is in the first position, the liquid storage chamber 111 and the liquid guiding chamber 112 are disconnected, and the aerosol matrix in the liquid storage chamber 111 cannot flow to the liquid guiding chamber 112. The first control component 15 controls the first battery cell 12 to be electrically disconnected from the atomizing component 13, and the atomizing component 13 is in a non-operating state.
[0045] like Figure 4 As shown, when the state transition component 14 is in the second position, the liquid storage chamber 111 and the liquid guiding chamber 112 are in liquid guiding communication, and the aerosol matrix in the liquid storage chamber 111 can flow to the liquid guiding chamber 112 to replenish the aerosol matrix in the liquid guiding chamber 112. The first control component 15 controls the first battery cell 12 to be electrically connected to the atomizing component 13, and the atomizing component 13 can perform atomization operation.
[0046] It's important to understand that electronic atomizing devices with a single, large-capacity liquid reservoir generally suffer from leakage issues. Some technologies employ separate packaging for the liquid reservoir and atomizing component to reduce the risk of leakage during transportation. However, this separate packaging may lead to insufficient lubrication and coil clogging during initial user assembly. Even after the user assembles the liquid reservoir and atomizing component, the single, large-capacity liquid reservoir still carries a risk of leakage.
[0047] One related technology involves choosing to reduce the size of the liquid inlet hole to avoid leakage. However, reducing the size of the liquid inlet hole will decrease power and affect the user's experience with the product.
[0048] Meanwhile, if the user leaves the electronic atomizing device for a long time, the aerosol matrix in its single large-capacity liquid storage chamber will continuously seep into the atomizing component, causing a gurgling sound when the user inhales again, and making it easy to suck the liquid aerosol matrix into their mouth.
[0049] This application, by setting up a liquid storage chamber and a liquid guiding chamber, can disperse the aerosol matrix in the electronic atomizing device 1 into two chambers. This ensures the storage capacity of the aerosol matrix in the electronic atomizing device while avoiding leakage problems caused by a single large-capacity chamber. During production and transportation, there is no need to package the aerosol matrix storage chamber and the atomizing component 13 separately, thus avoiding problems such as coil clogging caused by insufficient lubrication during initial use.
[0050] This application incorporates a movable state-switching component 14, which allows for the switching of the liquid path between the storage chamber 111 and the guiding chamber 112, enabling the user to freely control the replenishment of liquid from the storage chamber 111 to the guiding chamber 112. When not in use, the movable state-switching component 14 isolates the liquid flow between the storage chamber 111 and the guiding chamber 112, preventing them from becoming a single, large-capacity chamber and reducing the risk of leakage. This eliminates the need to reduce the size of the inlet hole to minimize leakage and avoids affecting the user's inhalation experience. Furthermore, it prevents a large amount of aerosol matrix from continuously seeping into the atomizing component 13, thus preventing gurgling sounds during inhalation after prolonged storage and reducing the likelihood of inhaling liquid aerosol matrix into the mouth, thereby improving the user experience.
[0051] This application, by setting a first control component 15 that responds to position changes of the state transition component 14, controls the operating state of the atomizing component 13. This allows the state transition component 14 to synchronously control the on / off state of the liquid circuit and the electrical circuit through its own movement. This synchronous on / off state of the liquid circuit and the electrical circuit enables safety interlocking and serves as a status indicator. When the state transition component 14 is in the first position, the electronic atomizing device 1 cannot perform atomization operations, thus effectively preventing the electronic atomizing device 1 from self-starting and achieving a simultaneous solution to multiple problems.
[0052] It should be noted that the volume of the liquid storage chamber 111 can be larger than the volume of the liquid guiding chamber 112, in order to increase the storage capacity of the aerosol matrix in the electronic atomizing device 1. Of course, the volume of the liquid storage chamber 111 can also be smaller than or equal to the volume of the liquid guiding chamber 112. No specific limitation is made here.
[0053] It should be noted that the shell 11 can specifically take various shapes, such as polygonal, cylindrical, polygonal columnar, elliptical columnar, irregular columnar, ellipsoidal, spherical, hemispherical, etc., without being specifically limited here. Figure 3 In the embodiment shown, the housing 11 is generally in the shape of a flat rectangle, with its width direction being the first direction X, its thickness direction being the second direction Y, and its height direction being the third direction Z.
[0054] like Figure 2 and Figure 3As shown, in some embodiments, the liquid storage chamber, the liquid guiding chamber, and the first control component 15 are sequentially arranged within the housing 11 along a third direction Z. The liquid guiding chamber is located between the liquid storage chamber and the first control component 15, and the liquid storage chamber is located at the top of the liquid guiding chamber. The state transition component 14 extends along a third direction Z and is movably arranged along a third direction Z. It is located along a third direction Z on the side of the first control component 15 near the liquid storage chamber and the liquid guiding chamber, and is at least partially located within the liquid guiding chamber and the liquid storage chamber based on movability. The liquid storage chamber and the liquid guiding chamber are both located on the outer periphery of the atomizing component 13. The atomizing component 13 is arranged on one side of the state transition component 14 along a direction perpendicular to the third direction Z. The first battery cell 12 is arranged along a direction perpendicular to the third direction Z on one side of the atomizing component 13 and the first control component 15, and is located on the side of the atomizing component 13 away from the state transition component 14. The first battery cell 12 is arranged along a third direction Z at the end of the liquid storage chamber near the liquid guiding chamber.
[0055] It should be noted that when using this electronic atomizing device 1, its operation is roughly as follows: Figure 3 The angle setting is shown. By setting the liquid storage chamber at the top of the liquid guiding chamber, when the user uses the electronic atomizing device 1, the aerosol matrix in the liquid storage chamber can be automatically replenished into the liquid guiding chamber based on gravity, ensuring the aerosol matrix content in the liquid guiding chamber and avoiding problems such as dry burning and scorching.
[0056] In some other embodiments, the liquid guiding chamber may also be disposed at least partially on one side of the liquid storage chamber along a direction perpendicular to the third direction Z.
[0057] In some other embodiments, the atomizing component 13 may also be disposed on one side of the liquid guiding chamber or the liquid guiding chamber and the liquid storage chamber in a direction perpendicular to the third direction Z.
[0058] In some other embodiments, the first battery cell 12 may also be disposed between the atomizing assembly 13 and the state transition assembly 14 in a direction perpendicular to the third direction Z, or disposed on the side of the state transition assembly 14 away from the atomizing assembly 13. The first battery cell 12 may also be disposed on one side of the liquid guiding chamber and / or the liquid storage chamber in a direction perpendicular to the third direction Z. The first battery cell 12 may also be disposed between the liquid guiding chamber and the liquid storage chamber in a direction perpendicular to the third direction Z, or disposed on the side of the liquid guiding chamber away from the liquid storage chamber.
[0059] In some other embodiments, the first control component 15 may also be located on one side of the liquid storage tank and / or the liquid guiding tank in a direction perpendicular to the third direction Z, or on one side of the state transition component 14.
[0060] In other embodiments, the state transition component 14 can also flexibly adjust its extension direction and movement direction based on the changes in the positional relationship between the liquid guiding chamber, the liquid storage chamber, and the first control component 15 within the housing 11. Since there are many potential embodiments, they will not be listed one by one here.
[0061] It should be noted that the housing 11 can be integrally molded from a single structure, or it can be formed by detachably or non-detachably assembling at least two structures through connection methods such as snap-fit, interference fit, threaded connection, or glue connection. No specific limitation is made here. The same applies to the liquid guiding chamber and the liquid storage chamber.
[0062] It should be noted that at least one structure may be shared between any two of the liquid guiding chamber, the liquid storage chamber, and the shell 11. For example, in Figure 3 In the embodiment shown, at least one support and / or shell structure is provided inside the housing 11, wherein a portion of the support and / or shell structure, together with a portion of the housing 11, defines a liquid storage chamber, and a portion of the support and / or shell structure, together with another portion of the housing 11, defines a liquid guiding chamber.
[0063] like Figure 4 As shown, in some embodiments, the housing 11 is further provided with a liquid inlet channel 110, which is located between the liquid storage chamber and the liquid guiding chamber, for connecting the liquid storage chamber 111 and the liquid guiding chamber 112. The state transition component 14 may be partially located in the liquid guiding chamber 112, partially located in the liquid storage chamber 111, and partially inserted through the liquid inlet channel 110, so as to switch the on / off state of the liquid inlet channel 110 by its own movement, thereby realizing the control of the liquid flow between the liquid storage chamber 111 and the liquid guiding chamber 112. When the state transition component 14 is in the second position, the aerosol matrix in the liquid storage chamber 111 can be replenished to the liquid guiding chamber 112 through the liquid inlet channel 110.
[0064] Specifically, the liquid inlet channel 110 can be located between the liquid storage chamber 111 and the liquid guiding chamber 112 along the third direction Z, and extends along the third direction Z so that the state conversion component 14 can be movably inserted into the liquid inlet channel 110 along the third direction Z.
[0065] like Figure 3 As shown, when the state transition component 14 is in the first position, the state transition component 14 is sealed inside the liquid inlet channel 110, and the liquid guiding chamber 112 is isolated from the liquid storage chamber 111. Figure 4 As shown, when the state transition component 14 is in the second position, the side wall of the state transition component 14 is spaced apart from the channel wall of the liquid inlet channel 110, the liquid inlet channel 110 is in a conductive state, and the liquid storage chamber 111 and the liquid guiding chamber 112 are connected through the liquid inlet channel 110.
[0066] It should be noted that the liquid inlet channel 110 may be defined by the housing 11 or the support inside the housing, or by the walls of the liquid guide chamber and the liquid storage chamber, and no specific limitation is made here.
[0067] In some other embodiments, the position and extension direction of the liquid inlet channel 110 can be flexibly adjusted based on the positional relationship between the liquid guide chamber and the liquid storage chamber within the housing 11.
[0068] like Figure 2 As shown, in some embodiments, the atomizing component 13 may include an atomizing element (not shown) and a liquid guiding element 132, and is provided with an atomizing chamber 131. The liquid guiding element 132 may be made of porous materials such as ceramics, fiber materials, or cotton materials, and its internal channels are used to conduct the liquid aerosol matrix. The atomizing element is disposed on the liquid guiding element 132 and is electrically connected to the first control component 15. Under the control of the first control component 15, it atomizes the aerosol matrix located around the atomizing element within the liquid guiding element 132 to generate an aerosol for user use.
[0069] The atomizing component 13 may also be provided with a liquid inlet (not shown in the figure), which is connected to the channels in the liquid guiding chamber 112 and the liquid guiding element 132. The channels in the liquid guiding element 132 are also in fluid communication with the atomizing chamber 131, thereby enabling fluid communication between the liquid guiding chamber 112 and the atomizing chamber 131. The aerosol matrix in the liquid guiding chamber 112 flows to the atomizing element through the liquid inlet and the channels in the liquid guiding element 132, where it is atomized to generate an aerosol. The atomizing element is at least partially exposed in the atomizing chamber 131 so that the aerosol generated by the atomizing element is contained within the atomizing chamber 131 for the user to inhale.
[0070] It should be noted that the liquid inlet can be specifically understood as the exposed opening of the channel of the liquid guiding component 132. When the atomizing assembly 13 has a housing structure to accommodate the atomizing component and the liquid guiding component 132, the liquid inlet can also be understood as a through hole provided on the housing structure, and no specific limitation is made here.
[0071] It should be noted that the atomizing chamber 131 can be specifically defined and formed by the liquid guiding member 132, or by other shell structures or support structures within the housing 11. When the atomizing assembly 13 has a housing structure with an atomizing member and a liquid guiding member 132, the atomizing chamber 131 can also be defined and formed by the housing structure of the atomizing assembly 13, and no specific limitation is made here.
[0072] It should be noted that the specific atomization method of the electronic atomizing device 1 is not limited. For example, it can adopt one or more of the existing atomization methods such as resistance heating atomization, electromagnetic heating atomization, infrared heating atomization, and ultrasonic atomization. The atomizing component can be selected from existing structures according to the specific atomization method.
[0073] like Figure 3 and Figure 7As shown, in some embodiments, the state transition component 14 may include a push knob 141 and a pusher 142. The pusher 142 is movably located within the housing 11 and passes through the liquid guide chamber and the liquid storage chamber, so as to achieve synchronous control of the on / off state of the liquid circuit and the electrical circuit through its own movement. The push knob 141 is fixed to the pusher 12 and is partially exposed, allowing the user to manually push the push knob 141 to move the state transition component 14.
[0074] Specifically, see also Figure 5 and Figure 6 The housing 11 has a first clearance opening 113. The push knob 141 is generally T-shaped and includes a horizontal connecting part 1411 and a vertical pushing part 1412. The pushing part 1412 is exposed outside the housing 11 and covers the first clearance opening 113 for the user to push. The connecting part 1411 passes through the first clearance opening 113, with one end connected to the side of the pushing part 1412 facing the housing 11, and the other end connected to the pushing member 142, for connecting the pushing member 142 and the pushing part 1412 to move synchronously.
[0075] The first clearance opening 113 is generally longitudinally arranged, and its extension direction is parallel to the movement direction of the state transition component 14. In this way, the first clearance opening 113 can also serve as a guide.
[0076] For example, the extension direction of the first clearance port 113 and the moving direction of the state transition component 14 are both along the third direction Z, and the moving positions (first position, second position) of the state transition component 14 are set at intervals along the third direction Z.
[0077] It should be noted that the connecting part 1411, the pushing part 1412, and the pushing component 142 can be detachably or non-detachably fixed to each other through methods such as integral molding, interference fit, glue connection, threaded connection, and snap-fit connection. No specific limitation is made here.
[0078] In some other embodiments, the state transition component 14 may not have a push knob 141 and may have an existing moving drive structure such as a motor and a lead screw. By setting the push member 142 on the lead screw driven by the motor and setting the motor to be electrically connected to the first control component 15, the push member 142 can be moved by the motor through the control of the first control component 15.
[0079] like Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, in some embodiments, the first clearance port 113 is provided with at least two limiting grooves 114 on its opening wall, and the connecting part 1411 is provided with at least one limiting protrusion 1413 for limiting the position of the state transition component 14 when it moves to each moving position.
[0080] Specifically, there are four limiting grooves 114, arranged in two groups of two. The two groups of limiting grooves 114 are spaced apart along the third direction Z to correspond to the first position and the second position spaced apart along the third direction Z. The two limiting grooves 114 in each group are respectively arranged on the two opposite walls of the first clearance opening 113 in a direction perpendicular to the third direction Z.
[0081] The connecting portion 1411 also has two limiting protrusions 1413, which are symmetrically arranged on opposite sides of the connecting portion 1411 along a direction perpendicular to the third direction Z.
[0082] When the state transition component 14 is in the first position, the two limiting protrusions 1413 are respectively located in the two limiting grooves 114 of one set to maintain the state of the electronic atomizing device 1 in the first position. Figure 5 As shown, when the state transition component 14 is in the second position, the two limiting protrusions 1413 are respectively located in the two limiting grooves 114 of another set, so that the position electronic atomizing device 1 is in the second position.
[0083] Thus, when the state transition component 14 is in the first position, it can avoid automatically moving to the second position due to accidental operation, thereby preventing problems such as the electronic atomizing device 1 turning on by itself. When the state transition component 14 is in the second position, the setting of the limiting protrusion 1413 and the limiting groove 114 can also prevent it from automatically moving to the first position, thereby preventing the user from accidentally turning it off during use.
[0084] In some other embodiments, the number of limiting grooves 114 in each group may be only one, and it is disposed on one of the sidewalls of the first clearance opening 113 extending in the third direction Z. Only one limiting protrusion 1413 is correspondingly provided on the connecting portion 1411.
[0085] In some other embodiments, at least two limiting protrusions 1413 may be provided on the wall of the first clearance port 113, and a limiting groove 114 may be provided on the connecting part 1411.
[0086] In some other embodiments, the limiting protrusion 1413 or the limiting groove 114 may also be provided on the corresponding wall of the housing 11.
[0087] like Figure 7 As shown, in some embodiments, the pusher 142 is generally elongated rod-shaped, disposed perpendicular to the connector 1411, and extends in the third direction Z.
[0088] The pusher 142 may include a sealing portion 1421, a liquid guiding portion 1422, and a docking portion 1423. The sealing portion 1421 is disposed between the liquid guiding portion 1422 and the docking portion 1423 along a third direction Z, and is used to switch the on / off state of the liquid inlet channel 110 according to the position change of the state switching component 14. The docking portion 1423 is located at the end of the sealing portion 1421 near the push knob 141, and is used to connect with the connecting portion 1411. The liquid guiding portion 1422 cooperates with the sealing portion 1421 to switch the on / off state of the liquid inlet channel 110.
[0089] Specifically, see also Figure 3 and Figure 4 The cross-section of the sealing part 1421 perpendicular to the third direction Z is adapted to, or slightly larger than, the cross-section of the liquid inlet channel 110 perpendicular to the third direction Z. Thus, when the sealing part 1421 is located within the liquid inlet channel 110, it can be press-fitted against the channel wall of the liquid inlet channel 110 to seal the channel wall. The cross-section of the liquid guiding part 1422 perpendicular to the third direction Z is smaller than both the cross-section of the sealing part 1421 perpendicular to the third direction Z and the cross-section of the liquid inlet channel 110 perpendicular to the third direction Z.
[0090] like Figure 3 As shown, when the state transition assembly 14 is in the first position, at least a portion of the sealing part 1421 is located inside the liquid inlet channel 110, and is press-fitted with the channel wall of the liquid inlet channel 110 to block the liquid inlet channel 110, thereby isolating the liquid storage chamber 111 from the liquid guiding chamber 112. The liquid guiding part 1422 is located outside the liquid inlet channel 110.
[0091] like Figure 4 As shown, when the state transition component 14 is in the second position, the sealing part 1421 is located outside the liquid inlet channel 110, and at least part of the liquid guiding part 1422 is located inside the liquid inlet channel 110. Since the cross section of the liquid guiding part 1422 perpendicular to the third direction Z is smaller than the cross section of the liquid inlet channel 110 perpendicular to the third direction Z, the side wall of the liquid guiding part 1422 is spaced apart from the side wall of the liquid inlet channel 110, and the aerosol matrix in the liquid storage chamber 111 can flow into the liquid guiding chamber 112 through the gap between the liquid guiding part 1422 and the channel wall of the liquid inlet channel 110.
[0092] like Figure 3 As shown, in some embodiments, the first control component 15 may include a first main control board 151 and a sensing component 152. The first main control board 151 is equipped with control circuitry, which is electrically connected to the sensing component 152, the first battery cell 12, and the atomizing component 13, for controlling the operation of the atomizer 10. The sensing component 152 is configured to control the power supply state of the atomizing component 13 in response to the position of the pusher 142.
[0093] like Figure 3 As shown, when the state transition component 14 is in the first position, the first battery cell 12 cannot supply power to the atomizing component 13 through the first main control board 151, and the first main control board 151 stops controlling the atomizing component 13 to perform atomization operations.
[0094] like Figure 4 As shown, when the state transition component 14 is in the second position, the first battery cell 12 can supply power to the atomizing component 13 through the first main control board 151, and the first main control board 151 controls the atomizing component 13 to perform atomization operations.
[0095] In some embodiments, the sensing component 152 may include a first sensor 1521 and a second sensor 1522. The first sensor 1521 is fixed to the pusher 142 to follow the displacement of the pusher 142. The second sensor 1522 is fixed inside the housing 11, spaced apart from the pusher 142 and the first sensor 1521, and electrically connected to the control circuit on the first main control board 151.
[0096] The second sensor 1522 can be configured to generate a drive signal based on the position of the first sensor 1521. This drive signal is used to drive the control circuit on the first main control board 151 to control the power supply state of the atomizing assembly 13. The first main control board 151 can be configured to control the power supply state of the first battery cell 12 to the atomizing assembly 13 in response to the drive signal.
[0097] Specifically, the first main control board 151 and the pusher 142 are spaced apart along a third direction Z, with the gap located at the end of the liquid guiding chamber away from the liquid storage chamber. The second sensor 1522 can be fixed to the side of the first main control board 151 near the pusher 142, and the first sensor 1521 can be fixed to the end of the pusher 142 near the first main control board 151 to ensure the sensing effect.
[0098] like Figure 3 As shown, when the state transition component 14 is in the first position, the first sensor 1521 and the second sensor 1522 are spaced apart by a first distance along the third direction Z, and the two are relatively far apart.
[0099] like Figure 4 As shown, when the state transition component 14 is in the second position, the first sensor 1521 and the second sensor 1522 are spaced apart by a second distance along the third direction Z, or are disposed adjacent to each other, and are close to each other. The second sensor 1522 can sense the first sensor 1521 and generate a drive signal.
[0100] The first distance is greater than the second distance.
[0101] It should be noted that the fixing of the first sensing element 1521 to the pusher 142 can be achieved by means of interference fit, threaded connection, snap-fit connection, glue connection, etc., and no specific limitation is made here. The fixing of the second sensing element 1522 in the housing 11 is similar.
[0102] In some other embodiments, the second sensing element 1522 may also be fixed to the inner wall of the housing 11, or to other structures such as a bracket inside the housing 11.
[0103] In some embodiments, one of the first sensing element 1521 and the second sensing element 1522 may be a Hall element, and the other may be a magnetic element.
[0104] For example in Figure 3 In the illustrated embodiment, the first sensor 1521 is a magnetic element, fixed to the end of the liquid guiding portion 1422 away from the sealing portion 1421. The second sensor 1522 is a Hall element, fixed to the side of the first main control board 151 facing the liquid guiding portion 1422.
[0105] In other embodiments, the sensing component 152 may also be implemented using existing technologies such as magnetoresistive elements, reed switches, magnetic diodes, transistors, and sensors.
[0106] like Figures 8 to 10 As shown, in some embodiments, the host 20 may include a housing 21, a second control component 22, and a second battery cell 23. Both the second control component 22 and the second battery cell 23 are disposed within the housing 21. The second control component 22 is electrically connected to both the second battery cell 23 and the first control component 15, and is used to control the second battery cell 23 to supply power to the atomizer 10.
[0107] By adjusting the main unit 20, the operating time of the electronic atomizing device 1 can be increased. The atomizer 10 can be used independently or assembled with the main unit 20. When the first battery cell 12 is depleted, the second battery cell 23 can continue to provide power for the atomization operation of the electronic atomizing device 1.
[0108] It should be noted that the outer shell 21 can specifically take the form of various shapes such as polygonal, cylindrical, polygonal columnar, elliptical columnar, irregular columnar, ellipsoidal, spherical, hemispherical, etc., without specific limitations. Figure 8 In the embodiment shown, the outer shell 21 is generally in the shape of a flat rectangle, with its width direction being the first direction X, its thickness direction being the second direction Y, and its height direction being the third direction Z.
[0109] In some other embodiments, the electronic atomizing device 1 may also include only the atomizer 10.
[0110] In some other embodiments, the main unit 20 may also be integrated with or be non-removable from the atomizer 10.
[0111] In some other embodiments, the atomizer 10 may not include the first battery cell 12, and may be powered only by the second battery cell 23 of the main unit 20.
[0112] like Figure 9 As shown, in some embodiments, the housing 21 may be provided with a mutually separated receiving cavity 212 and a mounting cavity 213. The second control component 22 and the second battery cell 23 are both disposed within the receiving cavity 212. The mounting cavity 213 is open at one end and is used to receive at least a portion of the atomizer 10. During the assembly of the atomizer 10 and the main unit 20, the atomizer 10 can be inserted into the mounting cavity 213 through the open end of the mounting cavity 213 to achieve assembly.
[0113] Specifically, the receiving cavity 212 is located at the end of the mounting cavity 213 away from the atomizer 10 along the third direction Z. The mounting cavity 213 extends through the end away from the receiving cavity 212 along the third direction Z, so that the atomizer 10 can be detachably mounted into the mounting cavity 213 along the third direction Z.
[0114] Furthermore, electrode terminals electrically connected to the second control component 22 may be exposed on the chamber wall of the mounting cavity 213, and electrode terminals electrically connected to the first control component 15 may also be exposed on the housing 11. When the atomizer 10 and the main unit 20 are connected, their exposed electrode terminals are connected, thereby realizing the electrical connection between the first control component 15 and the second control component 22.
[0115] It should be noted that the outer shell 21 can be made from a single integral structure, or it can be formed by detachably or non-detachably assembled from at least two structures through connection methods such as snap-fit, interference fit, threaded connection, glue connection, etc. No specific limitation is made here.
[0116] It should be noted that the atomizer 10 and the main unit 20 are detachably connected. Specifically, this can be achieved by setting a snap-fit structure or a threaded structure between the chamber wall of the mounting cavity 213 and the housing 11. No specific limitation is made here.
[0117] In some other embodiments, the mounting cavity 213 may also be disposed on the housing 11. When the atomizer 10 is assembled with the main unit 20, at least a portion of the main unit 20 is housed within the mounting cavity 213 of the housing 11.
[0118] In some other embodiments, the housing 21 may not have a mounting cavity 213.
[0119] like Figure 8 and Figure 9As shown, in some embodiments, at least one clearance groove 214 is provided on the side wall of the housing 21 opposite to the mounting cavity 213. When the atomizer 10 is assembled into the mounting cavity 213, the exposed push knob 141 of the atomizer 10 is received in the clearance groove 214.
[0120] exist Figure 8 In the embodiment shown, the clearance groove 214 is located on the side wall of the housing 21 near its through end.
[0121] It should be noted that the length of the clearance groove 214 along the third direction Z can be flexibly adjusted according to factors such as the position of the clearance groove 214 corresponding to the atomizer 10 and the moving distance of the state transition component 14 along the third direction Z, and no specific limitation is made here.
[0122] In some other embodiments, the clearance groove 214 may also be configured as a through hole, the length of which extends along the third direction Z is adapted to the movement distance of the state transition component 14 along the third direction Z.
[0123] like Figure 9 and Figure 10 As shown, in some embodiments, the second control component 22 may include a second main control board 221 and a switch 222. The second main control board 221 is equipped with control circuitry for electrical connection with the control circuitry on the first main control board 151, thereby achieving electrical connection between the host 20 and the atomizer 10. The host 20 also includes a button 24 and at least two ribs 25. The button 24 is pressable on the housing 21 and is used to trigger the switch 222 by pressing it. The switch 222 is electrically connected to the control circuitry on the second main control board 221 and is used to output a trigger signal to the second main control board 221 in response to the pressing of the button 24. The second main control board 221 may be configured to control the power supply state of the second battery cell 23 to the atomizer 10 in response to the trigger signal.
[0124] For example, when button 24 presses switch 222 to generate a first trigger signal, the second main control board 221 responds to the first trigger signal and controls the second battery cell 23 to supply power to the atomizer 10. When button 24 presses switch 222 to generate a second trigger signal, the second main control board 221 responds to the second trigger signal and controls the second battery cell 23 to stop supplying power to the atomizer 10.
[0125] Specifically, the outer casing 21 has a second clearance opening 211 corresponding to the receiving cavity 212, which connects the receiving cavity 212 to the outside. The button 24 is at least partially located within the second clearance opening 211 and is connected to the inner wall of the second clearance opening 211 by a rib 25 to fix it to the outer casing 21. The switch 222 is fixed to the second main control board 221 and is located on the side of the second main control board 221 near the second clearance opening 211.
[0126] The connection between the rib 25, the inner wall of the second clearance opening 211, and the button 24 can be achieved through integral molding or other methods, so that the three are integrated to ensure structural strength.
[0127] It should be understood that the button feel in the relevant technologies is inconsistent, the design structure is complex, and there are also assembly difficulties.
[0128] This application improves the pressing feel and sensitivity of the button 24 by integrating the button 24, the rib 25 and the second clearance opening 211, and simplifies the structure.
[0129] In some other embodiments, the switch 222 may also be fixed to the inner wall of the housing 21 or to other structures within the housing 21, and electrically connected to the control circuit on the second main control board 221 through conductive or other electrical connection structures.
[0130] In some embodiments, the rib 25 may be at least partially bent or folded to enable the button 24 to be movably positioned by bending or folding itself.
[0131] For example in Figure 10 In the illustrated embodiment, there are two ribs 25, symmetrically arranged on opposite sides of the button 24. Each rib 25 is approximately S-shaped.
[0132] In some other embodiments, the ribs 25 may be provided in three, four, or more, spaced apart along the circumference of the button 24.
[0133] In other embodiments, the shape of the rib 25 may also be C-shaped, L-shaped, J-shaped, N-shaped, U-shaped, V-shaped, Z-shaped, etc.
[0134] like Figure 9 As shown, in some embodiments, the second main control board 221 is arranged perpendicular to the third direction Z, and the second battery cell 23 is arranged along the third direction Z on the side of the second main control board 221 away from the atomizer 10, so that the second main control board 221 can be electrically connected to the second battery cell 23 and the first main control board 151 respectively.
[0135] In some other embodiments, the second battery cell 23 may also be disposed on one side of the second main control board 221 in a direction perpendicular to the third direction Z. Alternatively, the second main control board 221 may also be disposed on the side of the second battery cell 23 away from the atomizer 10 in a direction perpendicular to the third direction Z.
[0136] like Figure 2As shown, in some embodiments, the housing 11 of the atomizer 10 is provided with at least one first air inlet 115, and the outer shell 21 is provided with at least one second air inlet 215. The first air inlet 115 is used to communicate with the atomizing chamber 131 for air supply, and the second air inlet 215 is respectively connected to the first air inlet 115 and external air supply.
[0137] During the user's inhalation process, outside air can enter the atomization chamber 131 through the second air inlet 215 and the first air inlet 115 in sequence, so as to carry away the aerosol in the atomization chamber 131 for the user's use.
[0138] Specifically, the first air inlet 115 is located at the end of the atomizer 10 closest to the main unit 10 along the third direction Z. The outer casing 21 also has at least one air outlet 216. The air outlet 216 and the second air inlet 215 are located at opposite ends of the outer casing 21 along the third direction Z. An air guide channel 217 is provided between the second air inlet 215 and the air outlet 216, connecting them.
[0139] When the atomizer 10 is connected to the main unit 20, the air outlet 216 is connected to the first air inlet 115, thereby realizing the air flow communication between the first air inlet 115 and the second air inlet 215.
[0140] It should be noted that the air guiding channel 217 can be formed by any gaps within the receiving cavity 212 other than the second control component 22 and the second battery cell 23. Alternatively, the receiving cavity 212 may also be equipped with a support, air guiding pipe, or other structures to separately define the air guiding channel 217. No specific limitations are made here.
[0141] In some other embodiments, the first air inlet 115 may also be provided on other side walls of the housing 11, and the second air inlet 215 may be provided at other locations on the outer casing 21.
[0142] In some other embodiments, the first air inlet 115 may also be located at the position where the housing 11 is exposed outside the outer casing 21, and the main unit 20 does not have a second air inlet 215.
[0143] 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.
