[0020] Please refer to Figures 1 to 3. The hidden gas-adjusting aerosol generating device provided in the present application includes: an atomizer 1, a main unit 2 and a shell 3; the atomizer 1 is detachably connected to the top of the main unit 2, and the lower end of the atomizer 1 is sleeved in the shell 3, and the main unit 2 is located inside the shell 3; the shell 3 is provided with a notch 30 and an air inlet 31; the main unit 2 includes a mounting bracket 20 and a gas-adjusting component 21, and an air-adjusting chute 200 is provided on the outer wall of the mounting bracket 20, and an air-adjusting channel 201 is provided on the air-adjusting chute 200, and the air-adjusting channel 201 is provided on the air-adjusting chute 200. The slide 200 is communicated with the air inlet 31; the air regulating component 21 includes an air regulating push plate 210 and a push button 211 connected to the air regulating push plate 210, and the air regulating push plate 210 is movably arranged in the air regulating slide 200, and the end of the push button 211 away from the air regulating push plate 210 is exposed to the shell 3 through the slot 30; wherein, when the push button 211 is moved by external force, it drives the air regulating push plate 210 to move along the air regulating slide 200 to adjust the blocking area of ​​the air regulating channel 201 by the air regulating push plate 210.

[0021] In this embodiment, the concealed gas-regulated aerosol generating device consists of an atomizer 1, a main unit 2, and a housing 3. When in use, the atomizer 1 is connected to the top of the main unit 2, and the lower end of the atomizer 1 is sleeved into the upper opening of the housing 3, so that the main unit 2 is disposed inside the housing 3. The main unit 2 includes a mounting bracket 20 and a gas-regulated assembly 21. The gas-regulated assembly 21 includes a gas-regulated push plate 210 and a push button 211. A gas-regulated chute 200 is provided on the outer wall of the mounting bracket 20, and a gas-regulated channel 201 is provided on the gas-regulated chute 200. The gas-regulated push plate 210 is disposed in the gas-regulated chute 200 and can move along the gas-regulated chute 200. When the gas-regulated push plate 210 moves along the gas-regulated chute 200, it can block or reveal the gas-regulated channel 201, thereby closing or opening the gas-regulated channel 201. At the same time, the push button 211 is exposed to the outside of the housing 3 through the notch 30 on the housing 3, so that the user can apply force to the air-regulating assembly 21. By turning the push button 211, the user can adjust the area of ​​the air-regulating push plate 210 blocking the air-regulating channel 201, thereby adjusting the size of the air inlet of the air-regulating channel 201 to close or open. The housing 3 is provided with an air inlet hole 31, and the air inlet hole 31 is connected to the air-regulating chute 200. When the user turns the push button 211 to open the air-regulating channel 201, the outside air enters the air-regulating chute 200 through the air inlet hole 31 on the housing 3, and then enters the air-regulating chute 200 into the air-regulating channel 201, and then enters the main unit 2 and the atomizer 1. Specifically, the air-regulating chute 200 can be configured as an annular groove structure on the outer wall of the upper end of the mounting bracket 20. The air-regulating channel 201 is located on the front end surface of the mounting bracket 20, and a notch 30 is provided on the front end surface of the housing 3 to facilitate the user to manually adjust the position of the push button 211. The air-regulating push plate 210 is an arc-shaped plate-shaped structure adapted to the air-regulating chute 200, and the air-regulating push plate 210 can move along the air-regulating chute 200. Air inlet holes 31 are provided on the two side walls of the housing 3 at positions directly opposite the air-regulating chute 200. When the user pushes the push button 211 to open the air-regulating channel 201 and uses it, external air quickly enters the air-regulating chute 200 through the air inlet holes 31 on the two side walls of the housing 3, thereby better providing the required air intake. In addition, the position of the air inlet holes 31 is staggered with the position of the air-regulating channel 201, so that the air-regulating channel 201 can be completely hidden within the housing 3. Preferably, the air regulating channel 201 can be set as a gradually expanding channel, which gradually expands in the direction of opening the air regulating channel 201 as the air regulating push plate 210 moves, so as to better regulate the air intake volume.

[0022] The concealed air-regulating aerosol generating device provided by the present application achieves the purpose of concealed air regulation by concealing the air-regulating channel 201 within the housing 3 and driving the air-regulating push plate 210 to move along the air-regulating chute 200 by toggling the push button 211, thereby adjusting the size of the air inlet of the air-regulating channel 201 to close or open. At the same time, it can prevent the user from accidentally blocking the air inlet channel (i.e., the air-regulating channel 201) and causing the device to be unusable or causing oral burns due to the lack of cold air entering. This can effectively improve the safety and comfort of the user, making the aerosol generating device more diverse, more intelligent, and more user-friendly, and making the appearance more beautiful.
