[0036] This application provides an atomizing device. Please refer to [link / reference]. Figures 1-9 The atomizing device 100 has a first direction, a second direction, and a third direction that are orthogonal to each other. For example, the first direction may be... Figure 6 The positive or negative direction of the Z-axis, and the second direction can be... Figure 6 The positive or negative direction of the X-axis, and the third direction can be Figure 7The positive or negative direction of the Y-axis. Due to limitations in the manufacturing process, the parallelism or perpendicularity in this application may have a deviation of ±5°. The atomizing device 100 may include a nozzle assembly 10, a liquid storage assembly 20, an atomizing assembly 30, a main unit assembly 40, and a housing assembly 70. The housing assembly 70 has a light-transmitting area 711 on at least one side in the second direction, through which light can be emitted. The nozzle assembly 10 is used for the user to perform a suction action. The nozzle assembly 10 includes a nozzle 11 through which aerosol can be output. The liquid storage assembly 20 is used to store the atomizing matrix. The liquid storage assembly 20 is installed inside the housing assembly 70.

[0037] The atomizing component 30 is used to heat the atomizing matrix to generate an aerosol, and the main unit 40 is used to control the operation of the atomizing device 100. Please refer to [link / reference]. Figures 1-9 The main unit 40 may include a battery 41, a circuit board 42, and an airflow sensor 43. The battery 41 provides electrical energy for the atomizing device 100 during operation. Both the circuit board 42 and the airflow sensor 43 are electrically connected to the battery 41. The airflow sensor 43 can generate a control signal based on the user's inhalation action, and the circuit board 42 can control the conduction state between the atomizing component 30 and the battery 41 according to the control signal, thereby controlling the atomizing component 30 to heat the atomizing matrix to generate an aerosol or to stop heating.

[0038] Please see Figures 1-9 The liquid storage assembly 20 includes a first liquid storage shell 21 and a second liquid storage shell 22 that are interconnected in a first direction. The second liquid storage shell 22 and the first liquid storage shell 21 enclose a first liquid storage cavity 213. The liquid storage cavity being formed by interconnected liquid storage shells facilitates the assembly of components located within the liquid storage cavity. A suction nozzle 11 is connected to one end of the first liquid storage shell 21 along the first direction.

[0039] Please continue reading. Figures 1-9 The main unit 40 also includes a light-emitting element 45. The light-emitting element 45 is electrically connected to the battery 41 and emits light when powered on. The light-emitting element 45 is disposed along a second direction on the outside of the first liquid storage cavity 213, on the side opposite to the light-transmitting area 711. The first liquid storage shell 21 is made of a transparent material. A transparent material means that the light transmittance of the material is greater than or equal to 90%, allowing light to pass through the first liquid storage shell 21 with almost no scattering, and the interior of the first liquid storage shell 21 can be clearly observed. The first liquid storage shell 21 is configured to guide the light emitted by the light-emitting element 45 to propagate to the light-transmitting area 711, so that the light is visible through the light-transmitting area 711.

[0040] The atomizing device 100 provided in this application guides light to the housing assembly 70 through the first liquid storage shell 21. The light can be used to decorate the appearance of the atomizing device 100 to enhance its aesthetic appeal, making the atomizing device 100 more beautiful. The first liquid storage shell 21 has the functions of storing atomizing matrix and transmitting light, realizing functional reuse. There is no need to set additional appearance decoration parts, which can reduce the number of parts. This can reduce the overall size of the atomizing device 100 to improve portability and reduce the cost of the atomizing device 100, thereby enhancing the competitiveness of the product.

[0041] Please see Figures 1-9 The liquid storage assembly 20 has a first liquid storage chamber 213 and a second liquid storage chamber 231 arranged along a first direction. The liquid storage assembly 20 includes two liquid storage chambers, and the atomizing matrix stored in the two chambers can be different, for example, one is a sweet orange-flavored atomizing matrix and the other is an apple-flavored atomizing matrix, allowing the same atomizing device 100 to atomize and generate aerosols of different flavors, which is beneficial to improving the user experience. The liquid storage assembly 20 includes a third liquid storage shell 23 connected to the second liquid storage shell 22 along the first direction, and the third liquid storage shell 23 and the second liquid storage shell 22 enclose the second liquid storage chamber 231. The atomizing assembly 30 includes a first atomizing core 31 disposed in the first liquid storage chamber 213 and a second atomizing core 32 disposed in the second liquid storage chamber 231. The battery 41 is electrically connected to the first atomizing core 31 and the second atomizing core 32, so that the battery 41 can provide electrical energy to the atomizing cores. The first atomizing core 31 is used to heat the atomizing substrate in the first liquid storage chamber 213 to generate an aerosol, and the second atomizing core 32 is used to heat the atomizing substrate in the second liquid storage chamber 231 to generate an aerosol. The aerosol generated by the first atomizing core 31 and the second atomizing core 32 can be output through the mouthpiece 11. The first atomizing core 31 and the second atomizing core 32 can work independently. That is, one of the first atomizing core 31 and the second atomizing core 32 heats the atomizing substrate alone, and the mouthpiece 11 outputs an aerosol of one flavor. The first atomizing core 31 can also work in combination with the second atomizing core 32. That is, the first atomizing core 31 and the second atomizing core 32 heat the atomizing substrate simultaneously, and the mouthpiece 11 can output two flavors of aerosol simultaneously.

[0042] The battery 41 can be located at the bottom of the atomizing device 100, away from the mouthpiece 11. To improve the battery life of the atomizing device 100, the battery 41 is usually large. Since the battery 41 requires a large installation space, it may cause the atomizing device 100 to be disproportionate (for example, the atomizing device 100 is a long and thin strip with an unbalanced height-to-width ratio), affecting the appearance of the atomizing device 100.

[0043] A battery bracket (not shown in the figure) may be provided on one side of the first liquid storage shell 21 in the second direction. The battery bracket fixes the battery 41 to the side of the liquid storage cavity near the mouthpiece 11. This can make full use of the space on the side of the liquid storage cavity, thereby reducing the size of the atomizing device 100 in the first direction and appropriately increasing the size in the second direction, making the proportion of the atomizing device 100 more coordinated in the two directions, which is conducive to improving the appearance of the atomizing device 100.

[0044] Please see Figures 6-11 In one embodiment, the first liquid storage shell 21 is provided with an installation space 214 for mounting the battery 41, and the installation space 214 is arranged adjacent to the first liquid storage cavity 213 in the second direction. The light-emitting element 45 is arranged on one side of the battery 41 along the second direction, and the light-transmitting area 711 is arranged on the side of the shell assembly 70 away from the battery 41 in the second direction. With this arrangement, the installation space 214 can share part of the sidewall with the first liquid storage cavity 213, realizing the functional reuse of the first liquid storage shell 21. Compared with setting a separate battery bracket, it can save material usage and reduce costs; it can also reduce the occupation of the components in the internal space of the atomizing device 100, making the proportion of the atomizing device 100 more coordinated in both directions, which is conducive to improving the appearance of the atomizing device 100.

[0045] In one embodiment, such as Figures 8-11 As shown, the first liquid storage shell 21 includes a shell body 211 and a support portion 212. The shell body 211 has an inner space, and the shell body 211 and the second liquid storage shell 22 enclose a first liquid storage cavity 213. The first liquid storage cavity 213 is used to store the atomizing matrix in liquid form. Since the liquid atomizing matrix can almost fill the internal space of the first liquid storage cavity 213, the internal space of the first liquid storage cavity 213 can be fully utilized to store the atomizing matrix, which is beneficial to increasing the storage capacity of the atomizing matrix. The support portion 212 is connected to the shell body 211 along the second direction, and the end of the battery 41 away from the nozzle 11 is at least partially supported by the support portion 212. The light emitted by the light-emitting element 45 can be guided by the shell body 211 to the light-transmitting area 711, at which time the light can be used to decorate the upper area of ​​the atomizing device 100 near the nozzle 11 in the first direction. Alternatively, in one embodiment, as Figure 8As shown, the light-emitting element 45 is positioned near the support portion 212 on the side facing away from the housing 211 in the second direction, so that the support portion 212 can guide the light emitted by the light-emitting element 45 to propagate to the light-transmitting area 711. The support portion 212 is located at the end of the battery 41 away from the nozzle 11, and the position of the support portion 212 is in the middle region of the atomizing device 100 in the first direction. By positioning the light-emitting element 45 near the support portion 212 on the side facing away from the housing 211 in the second direction, the light can be used to decorate the middle region of the atomizing device 100 in the first direction. Compared to the upper region, since the middle region is the core visual focus when the user observes the atomizing device 100, the light decoration in the middle region is more easily perceived by the user, thereby enhancing the aesthetic appeal. Furthermore, since the support part 212 is located in the bottom area of ​​the first liquid storage chamber 213 away from the nozzle 11 in the first direction, the bottom area inside the first liquid storage chamber 213 can be observed through the light-transmitting area 711 and the first liquid storage shell 21. The first liquid storage chamber 213 is used to store the atomizing matrix in liquid form. Users can check in real time whether the remaining amount of atomizing matrix in the first liquid storage chamber 213 is less than the threshold to avoid dry burning of the atomizing core, thus giving the product a practical prompting function and improving the user experience.

[0046] The light-emitting element 45 can be disposed on the side of the support portion 212 opposite to the battery 41 in the first direction. That is, the light-emitting element 45 and the battery 41 are respectively located on opposite sides of the support portion 212 in the first direction, which can reduce the space occupied by the light-emitting element 45 in the internal space of the atomizing device 100 in the second direction.

[0047] Please see Figure 8 , Figure 10 In one embodiment, the circuit board 42 is located on the side of the battery 41 facing away from the housing 211 in the second direction. The light-emitting element 45 is mounted on the circuit board 42 and is electrically connected to the battery 41 via the circuit board 42. The support portion 212 is provided with a light guide 216. The light guide 216 can be a "U-shaped" notch with one side open or an "L-shaped" notch with both sides open. The light-emitting element 45 is at least partially embedded in the light guide 216, and the support portion 212 abuts against the circuit board 42. With this arrangement, on the one hand, the light-emitting element 45 is embedded in the light guide 216, which can reduce the space occupied by the light-emitting element 45 in the internal space of the atomizing device 100 in the second direction, which is beneficial to reducing the volume of the atomizing device 100; on the other hand, the support portion 212 abuts against the circuit board 42, which can restrict the displacement of the circuit board 42 in the second direction, realize the functional reuse of the support portion 212, and eliminate or reduce the need for additional limiting components, thereby reducing the number of components and further reducing the volume of the atomizing device 100.

[0048] The light-emitting element 45 may include an LED (Light Emitting Diode) lamp. There may be one or more LEDs. When there are multiple LEDs, they can be spaced apart along a third direction. The light emitted by the LEDs is guided to the housing assembly 70 via the support 212, and the light is used to decorate the appearance of the atomizing device 100 to enhance its aesthetic appeal. LEDs have low energy consumption, which can improve the battery life of the atomizing device 100. Furthermore, LEDs can be combined with dimming technology to achieve stepless adjustment of color temperature / brightness, thereby changing the color temperature / brightness of the light decorating the appearance of the atomizing device 100 to meet the user's personalized needs.

[0049] In one embodiment, such as Figure 6 As shown, the light-emitting component 45 includes RGB lights, and the main unit 40 includes a control component 44. The control component 44 is electrically connected to the circuit board 42, and the control component 44 can control the light emission color of the RGB lights through the circuit board 42. The RGB lights are composed of LED beads of three basic colors: red, green, and blue. By changing the light emission color of the RGB lights through the control component 44, the color of the light on the appearance of the decorative atomizing device 100 is changed, making the decorative colors on the appearance of the atomizing device 100 richer and able to meet the personalized needs of users.

[0050] The control unit 44 can independently control the working state of the atomizing core and the color of the RGB lights via the circuit board 42. Alternatively, the control unit 44 can control the working state of the atomizing core and the color of the RGB lights in a coordinated manner via the circuit board 42. In one embodiment, the control unit 44 can synchronously change the working state of the first atomizing core 31 and / or the second atomizing core 32 and the color of the RGB lights via the circuit board 42, so that the color of the RGB lights can indicate changes in the working state. For example, the atomizing core has three heating power levels: high, medium, and low. When the control unit 44 changes the working state of the atomizing core to low power heating, the RGB lights are displayed as red; when the control unit 44 changes the working state of the atomizing core to medium power heating, the RGB lights are displayed as blue; and when the control unit 44 changes the working state of the atomizing core to high power heating, the RGB lights are displayed as green. The coordinated control can automatically adjust the color of the RGB lights according to the working state of the atomizing core, so that the RGB lights can provide users with intuitive and real-time visual feedback, which is beneficial to improving the user experience.

[0051] In one embodiment, such as Figure 1 , Figure 6As shown, the atomization device 100 includes a display assembly 60. The display assembly 60 includes a display screen 61 and a display cover plate 62. The display screen 61 is stacked on the circuit board 42 along the second direction and is electrically connected to the circuit board 42. The display cover plate 62 is mounted on the housing assembly 70, and the display cover plate 62 is disposed on the side of the display screen 61 facing away from the circuit board 42 in the second direction. The display screen 61 can display the working state of the atomization device 100, for example, information such as the remaining power of the battery 41 and the heating power gear of the atomization assembly 30, which allows the user to know the state of the atomization device 100 in time. The control member 44 can synchronously change the light emitting color of the RGB lamp and the information displayed on the display screen 61 through the circuit board 42. With such an arrangement, the control member 44 realizes the linked control of the RGB lamp and the display screen 61 through the circuit board 42. When the user operates the atomization device 100, the display screen 61 and the RGB lamp simultaneously display related information and color changes, which can enhance the intuitiveness and immediacy of human-computer interaction, provide intuitive visual feedback, enable the user to know the working state of the atomization device 100 (such as remaining power, heating power gear, etc.) in time, and help improve user experience.

[0052] The control member 44 may be a touch control member. Alternatively, the control member 44 is a press-type control member. Please refer to Figure 8 , in an embodiment, the control member 44 includes a trigger portion 441, an elastic portion 442, and a press portion 443. The trigger portion 441 is connected to the circuit board 42 and electrically connected to the circuit board 42, the elastic portion 442 is elastically supported on the circuit board 42, and the press portion 443 is connected to the side of the elastic portion 442 facing away from the trigger portion 441. The trigger portion 441 can generate an electrical signal under the trigger of the press portion 443. The elastic portion 442 is configured to provide a restoring force, so that the press portion 443 can automatically reset after the external force is removed. A side of the elastic portion 442 facing the press portion 443 is provided with a preset pattern. The preset pattern may be a UV printed pattern. The press portion 443 is made of a transparent material, so that the preset pattern is visible through the press portion 443. For example, the preset pattern can be used to indicate the working state of the atomization device 100, so as to provide a richer user interaction experience; alternatively, the preset pattern may be an indicator symbol, a brand logo or an operation prompt, so as to help the user quickly identify the purpose of the key, which can enhance the usability of the product; alternatively, the preset pattern may be a brand mark, which improves the visibility and recognition of the brand through the externally visible pattern, thereby enhancing brand influence.

[0053] Please refer to Figures 5-16In one embodiment, the atomizing device 100 includes an air regulating component 50, which is used to adjust the air intake of the atomizing device 100 and change the suction resistance of the atomizing device 100, thereby improving the vaping experience. The air regulating component 50 includes an air regulating seat 51, an air regulating seal 52, and an air regulating push knob 53. The air regulating seat 51 is connected along a first direction to the end of the third liquid storage shell 23 away from the second liquid storage shell 22, and the air regulating seal 52 is installed on the side of the air regulating seat 51 opposite to the third liquid storage shell 23. The air regulating seat 51 is provided with a first air inlet 511, and the air regulating seal 52 is provided with a second air inlet 522 communicating with the first air inlet 511. The air regulating push knob 53 is slidably disposed on the side of the air regulating seal 52 opposite to the air regulating seat 51. An air-adjusting push knob 53 is provided with an air-adjusting hole 531. By pushing the air-adjusting push knob 53 to move, the communication area between the air-adjusting hole 531 and the second air inlet 522 can be changed, thereby adjusting the air intake of the atomizing device 100. The air-adjusting seal 52 has a sensor mounting groove 521 for mounting the airflow sensor 43 on the side opposite to the air-adjusting base 51. The air-adjusting seal 52 and the air-adjusting base 51 enclose an airflow sensing channel 56. The airflow sensing channel 56 connects the sensor mounting groove 521 and the first air inlet 511, allowing the airflow sensor 43 to sense changes in airflow in the atomizing device 100, and then generate a control signal based on the user's inhalation action. For example, as... Figure 16 As shown, a groove is formed on the gas regulating seal 52, and the gas regulating seat 51 surrounds one side of the groove to form an airflow sensing channel 56. The gas regulating seal 52 and the gas regulating seat 51 are configured to cooperate to form the airflow sensing channel 56. The gas regulating seal 52 and the gas regulating seat 51 respectively form at least part of the sidewall of the airflow sensing channel 56. When the gas regulating seal 52 and the gas regulating seat 51 are assembled and connected, the airflow sensing channel 56 can be formed between the gas regulating seal 52 and the gas regulating seat 51. It is not necessary to process through holes in the gas regulating seal 52 or the gas regulating seat 51 to form the airflow sensing channel 56, which can simplify the processing of the gas regulating seal 52 or the gas regulating seat 51 and help reduce costs.

[0054] In one embodiment, such as Figure 5 , Figure 6 , Figure 9 As shown, the gas regulating assembly 50 includes a second liquid suction element 54 and a third sealing element 55. The second liquid suction element 54 is disposed between the third liquid storage shell 23 and the gas regulating seat 51. The second liquid suction element 54 is used to absorb the atomizing matrix that seeps out from the second liquid storage chamber 231, which can further reduce the risk of atomizing matrix leakage. The third sealing element 55 can be made of silicone or rubber or other materials with a certain elastic deformation capability. The third sealing element 55 is disposed at the connection between the third liquid storage shell 23 and the gas regulating seat 51 to seal the gap between them, which helps to improve the airtightness of the atomizing device 100.

[0055] The circuit board 42 can be bonded and fixed to at least one of the first liquid storage shell 21, the second liquid storage shell 22, and the gas regulating base 51 to prevent the circuit board 42 from shifting. In one embodiment, as... Figure 2 As shown, the circuit board 42 is snap-fitted to the first liquid reservoir 21, the second liquid reservoir 22, and the gas regulating seat 51. This configuration has two advantages: firstly, snap-fit ​​fixing only requires aligning the components according to the snap-fit ​​design and applying a certain force to snap them into place, without the need for glue or additional tools, thus improving the assembly efficiency of the atomizing device 100; secondly, since the first liquid reservoir 21, the second liquid reservoir 22, and the gas regulating seat 51 are located at different positions in the first direction, the circuit board 42 has multiple different lateral fixing positions in the first direction, which improves the fixing reliability of the circuit board 42.

[0056] Please see Figures 1-9 In one embodiment, the liquid storage assembly 20 includes a first liquid storage element 24, a first sealing element 26, and a first liquid suction element 25. The first liquid storage element 24 fills the second liquid storage cavity 231 and surrounds the second atomizing core 32, supplying the atomizing matrix to the second atomizing core 32. The first sealing element 26 is disposed at the connection between the third liquid storage shell 23 and the second liquid storage shell 22, and is at least partially housed in the second liquid storage cavity 231. The first liquid suction element 25 is disposed in the space formed by the first sealing element 26 and the second liquid storage shell 22. That is, the first sealing element 26 divides a portion of the space in the second liquid storage cavity 231 near the first liquid storage cavity 213 into a space for accommodating the first liquid suction element 25. The first liquid storage cavity 213 is used to store the atomizing matrix in liquid form, and the first liquid suction element 25 can absorb the atomizing matrix seeping out from the first liquid storage cavity 213. The second liquid storage cavity 231 stores the atomizing matrix through the first liquid storage element 24. The first liquid-absorbing element 25 and the first liquid-storing element 24 are porous media, such as fiber cotton, so that the first liquid-absorbing element 25 and the first liquid-storing element 24 can adsorb the atomized matrix.

[0057] The first liquid storage chamber 213 is used to store the atomizing matrix in liquid form. This allows for full utilization of the internal space of the first liquid storage chamber 213, increasing the storage capacity of the atomizing matrix. The first sealing member 26 divides a portion of the second liquid storage chamber 231 near the first liquid storage chamber 213 into a space for accommodating the first liquid suction member 25. The first liquid suction member 25 can absorb the atomizing matrix seeping from the first liquid storage chamber 213, preventing leakage and reducing the risk of leakage. The second liquid storage chamber 231 stores the atomizing matrix through the first liquid storage member 24, which also prevents leakage and further reduces the risk of leakage. By providing two liquid storage chambers to store the atomizing matrix in different forms, and by providing the first liquid suction member 25 in a portion of the second liquid storage chamber 231 near the first liquid storage chamber 213, the atomizing device 100 can both increase the storage capacity of the atomizing matrix and prevent leakage.

[0058] In one embodiment, such as Figure 4 , Figure 6 As shown, the atomizing assembly 30 includes a second liquid reservoir 33 and a mounting tube 34. The second liquid reservoir 33 surrounds the first atomizing core 31. The volume of the second liquid reservoir 33 is smaller than that of the first liquid reservoir 213, so that the second liquid reservoir 33 does not affect the storage of the atomizing matrix in the first liquid reservoir 213 in liquid form. The second liquid reservoir 33 is housed within the mounting tube 34, which is installed within the first liquid reservoir 213. The mounting tube 34 may have a through hole communicating with the first liquid reservoir 213. The atomizing matrix in the first liquid reservoir 213 can be transferred to the first atomizing core 31 via the mounting tube 34 and the second liquid reservoir 33, so that the first atomizing core 31 can heat the atomizing matrix in the first liquid reservoir 213 to generate an aerosol. This configuration serves two purposes. First, the second liquid storage component 33 is wrapped around the first atomizing core 31, which prevents the atomizing matrix in the first liquid storage chamber 213 from leaking out of the first atomizing core 31, thus reducing the risk of leakage. Second, the mounting tube 34 and the second liquid storage component 33 form an assembly with the first atomizing core 31, which is assembled into the first liquid storage chamber 213 in a modular form, thereby improving assembly efficiency.

[0059] The outer contours of each liquid storage shell are aligned at least partially in the vertical direction of the first direction to make the shape of the liquid storage assembly 20 more regular, which can reduce the space occupied by the liquid storage assembly 20 in the internal space of the atomizing device 100. Please refer to Figures 8-13In one embodiment, the second liquid storage shell 22 includes a first connecting portion 221 and a second connecting portion 222 connected to each other. The first connecting portion 221 is inserted into the first liquid storage shell 21 and encloses the inner space of the first liquid storage shell 21 to form a first liquid storage cavity 213. The mounting tube 34 is mounted on the first connecting portion 221. One end of the third liquid storage shell 23 is inserted into the second connecting portion 222, and the second connecting portion 222 encloses the inner space of the third liquid storage shell 23 to form a second liquid storage cavity 231. When the outer contours of the two liquid storage shells are aligned at least partially in the vertical direction of the first direction, under the condition that the effective volume of the first liquid storage cavity 213 is constant, compared with the first liquid storage shell 21 being inserted into the first connecting portion 221, inserting the first connecting portion 221 into the first liquid storage shell 21 can improve the utilization rate of the internal space of the first liquid storage shell 21, which is beneficial to reduce the volume of the first liquid storage shell 21 and increase the installation space of the battery 41, thereby improving the endurance of the atomizing device 100.

[0060] The cross-sectional area of ​​the second connecting portion 222 can be equal to the cross-sectional area of ​​the first connecting portion 221, thereby facilitating the processing of the second liquid storage shell 22. Alternatively, in one embodiment, such as Figure 8 , Figure 12 As shown, the projection of the first connecting portion 221 along the first direction falls within the second connecting portion 222. With this configuration, the cross-sectional area of ​​the second connecting portion 222 is larger than that of the first connecting portion 221, which increases the size of the second liquid storage chamber 231 in the direction perpendicular to the first direction (e.g., the second direction). Given a fixed effective volume of the second liquid storage chamber 231, its size in the first direction can be reduced, making the proportions of the atomizing device 100 more harmonious in both directions and improving the aesthetic appeal of the atomizing device 100.

[0061] In one embodiment, such as Figures 6-9 As shown, both the first atomizing core 31 and the second atomizing core 32 extend along the first direction, and the air passages of the first atomizing core 31 and the second atomizing core 32 are arranged collinearly. The arrangement of the first atomizing core 31 and the second atomizing core 32 forming a straight airflow channel in the first direction helps reduce the flow resistance of the aerosol and prevents the aerosol from forming eddies within the air passages, thus affecting the taste.

[0062] In one embodiment, such as Figure 7As shown, the first atomizing core 31 includes a first heating element 311, a first liquid guiding element 312, and a first atomizing tube 313. The first liquid guiding element 312 surrounds the first heating element 311 and is at least partially housed within the first atomizing tube 313. The second atomizing core 32 includes a second heating element 321, a second liquid guiding element 322, and a second atomizing tube 323. The second liquid guiding element 322 surrounds the second heating element 321 and is at least partially housed within the second atomizing tube 323. The liquid guiding element transfers the atomizing matrix to the heating element, which is electrically heated to generate heat, thus atomizing the atomizing matrix. This arrangement allows the heating element, liquid guiding element, and atomizing tube to form a relatively independent assembly module, achieving modular assembly of the atomizing core and improving production efficiency.

[0063] The cross-sectional area of ​​the first liquid storage cavity 213 can be a constant cross-section in the first direction, thereby facilitating the machining of the first liquid storage shell 21. Alternatively, please refer to... Figures 8-11 In one embodiment, a local area at the connection between the first liquid storage shell 21 and the first connecting portion 221 extends toward the side where the battery 41 is located in the second direction, and a clearance space 215 is formed in the first liquid storage cavity 213. A portion of the first connecting portion 221 is accommodated in the clearance space 215, and the projection of the first connecting portion 221 located in the clearance space 215 along the first direction at least partially falls on the battery 41. With this configuration, the end of the first liquid storage shell 21 near the first connecting part 221 expands towards the side where the battery 41 is located. The clearance space 215 can avoid the installation space 214 of the battery 41, facilitating the installation of the first connecting part 221. This allows the installation position of the first atomizing core 31 on the first connecting part 221 to be closer to the side where the battery 41 is located. Correspondingly, the size difference of the first liquid storage components 24 attached to the opposite sides of the second atomizing core 32 in the second direction can be reduced. The first liquid storage components 24 are more evenly distributed around the second atomizing core 32, allowing the first liquid storage components 24 to supply the atomizing matrix to the second atomizing core 32 in multiple directions around the second atomizing core 32. Aerosol is generated in multiple directions on the inner wall of the air passage of the second atomizing core 32, and the aerosol in the air passage is more uniform, which can further improve the taste of the aerosol.

[0064] Please see Figure 3 , Figures 6-9In one embodiment, the liquid storage assembly 20 includes a second sealing element 27 and a sealing plug 28. The second sealing element 27 and the sealing plug 28 can be made of materials with a certain elastic deformation capacity, such as silicone or rubber. The second sealing element 27 is disposed at the connection between the first liquid storage shell 21 and the first connecting portion 221, and is at least partially housed in the first liquid storage cavity 213. The second sealing element 27 can enhance the airtightness of the first liquid storage cavity 213, thereby preventing leakage of the atomizing matrix. Through holes can be provided on the second sealing element 27 and the second liquid storage shell 22 to allow the atomizing matrix to be injected into the first liquid storage cavity 213 through the through holes after the second liquid storage shell 22 is assembled. When the first atomizing core 31 is wrapped with the second liquid storage component 33, the atomizing matrix injected into the first liquid storage cavity 213 requires a long waiting time to wet the second liquid storage component 33, affecting assembly efficiency. In one embodiment, as... Figure 8 , Figure 9 , Figure 12 , Figure 13 As shown, the first connecting part 221 is provided with an injection hole 223, and the second sealing member 27 blocks the opening of the injection hole 223 facing the first liquid storage chamber 213. The second sealing member 27 can prevent the atomized matrix from overflowing from the injection hole 223 when it is pressurized and injected into the first liquid storage chamber 213 through the injection hole 223. For example, a syringe can be used to pressurize and inject the atomized matrix into the first liquid storage chamber 213. With this configuration, on the one hand, the pressurized injection of the atomized matrix can make the atomized matrix in the first liquid storage chamber 213 quickly wet the second liquid storage component 33 without a long waiting time, which can improve assembly efficiency; on the other hand, the second sealing member 27 blocks the opening of the injection hole 223 facing the first liquid storage chamber 213, which can prevent leakage during the pressurized injection of the atomized matrix. The sealing plug 28 is inserted into the injection hole 223 to seal the injection hole 223 after the atomizing matrix is ​​injected into the first liquid storage chamber 213, thereby preventing the atomizing matrix in the first liquid storage chamber 213 from leaking out of the injection hole 223.

[0065] The housing assembly 70 may include a cylindrical housing (not shown) and a bottom housing (not shown). A suction nozzle 11 is connected to one end of the cylindrical housing, and the bottom housing is connected to the other end of the cylindrical housing opposite to the suction nozzle 11. A liquid storage assembly 20 and a light-emitting element 45 are disposed within the space formed by the cylindrical housing and the bottom housing. The cylindrical housing is made of an opaque material, and a through-hole may be provided on the cylindrical housing, forming a light-transmitting area 711 so that light can be seen through the light-transmitting area 711. The housing assembly 70 includes a cylindrical housing, which may be integrally molded, giving the housing assembly 70 good overall integrity.

[0066] In one embodiment, such as Figure 1As shown, the housing assembly 70 includes a first outer shell 71 and a second outer shell 72. The first outer shell 71 is disposed along a second direction on the side of the liquid storage assembly 20 opposite to the battery 41. The second outer shell 72 is connected to the first outer shell 71. The liquid storage assembly 20 and the light-emitting element 45 are disposed in the space formed by the second outer shell 72 and the first outer shell 71. The second outer shell 72 is made of an opaque material, while the first outer shell 71 is made of a transparent material. A light-transmitting area 711 is disposed on the first outer shell 71. The first outer shell 71 and the second outer shell 72 can be made of different materials and then assembled and connected. By using materials with different light transmittance for the first outer shell 71 and the second outer shell 72, the first outer shell 71 can be made entirely transparent, eliminating the need for through holes to form the light-transmitting area 711. This reduces the impact of openings on the appearance of the housing assembly 70 and improves the appearance of the atomizing device 100.

[0067] Please see Figures 1-8 In one embodiment, the outer edge of the second outer shell 72 extends in the second direction to cover at least a portion of the shell body 211. This arrangement allows the user to observe the remaining amount of atomizing matrix in the first liquid storage chamber 213 through the first outer shell 71 and the first liquid storage shell 21, thus providing a practical status indication function for the product. Furthermore, the second outer shell 72 can shield other components outside the shell body 211, preventing them from being directly exposed to the user's view and improving the aesthetic appeal of the atomizing device 100.

[0068] Please see Figure 6 In one embodiment, the nozzle assembly 10 includes a third liquid-absorbing element 12. The third liquid-absorbing element 12 is disposed between the nozzle 11 and the first liquid storage shell 21, and the aerosol is output to the nozzle 11 via the third liquid-absorbing element 12. The third liquid-absorbing element 12 can absorb condensate or un-atomized atomized matrix in the aerosol, thereby improving the taste of the aerosol.
