[0001] CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS

[0002] This application claims priority to Chinese patent application No. 2024202537621, filed on January 31, 2024, the entire contents of which are incorporated herein by reference. Technical Field

[0003] The present application relates to the technical field of atomization devices, and in particular to an atomization device. Background Art

[0004] The beauty device sprays beauty liquid onto the skin, for example, so that the skin can better absorb the beauty liquid. The beauty device includes a housing and an atomizing mechanism (for spraying the beauty device). The atomizing mechanism is fixedly mounted within the housing. When replacing the atomizing mechanism, it is inconvenient to replace the atomizing mechanism.

[0005] Summary of the Invention

[0006] The main technical problem solved by the present application is to provide an atomizing device to solve the problem in the prior art that the atomizing mechanism is fixed in the shell, making it inconvenient to replace the atomizing mechanism.

[0007] To address the above-mentioned technical issues, the first technical solution adopted in this application is to provide an atomizing device comprising a housing and an atomizing mechanism. The housing has a receiving cavity and a mounting opening. The atomizing mechanism is detachably disposed within the receiving cavity. This allows the atomizing mechanism to be removed from the mounting opening and then installed in the receiving cavity through the mounting opening when the atomizing mechanism is replaced. This allows the atomizing device to replace the atomizing mechanism, resolving the problem of inconvenient atomizing mechanism replacement in existing beauty devices.

[0008] In addition, when using different beauty serums with existing beauty devices, the old beauty serum in the atomizer mechanism must be cleaned out before the new serum is injected into the atomizer mechanism. However, the atomizer mechanism is detachable and mounted in the receiving chamber, allowing different beauty serums to be injected into multiple atomizer mechanisms separately, thereby reducing microbial deterioration and contamination within the atomizer mechanism.

[0009] In some embodiments, the atomizing device further comprises an air supply mechanism installed in the accommodating cavity. An air supply interface protrudes from the first outer wall of the atomizing mechanism; the air supply mechanism is connected to the air supply interface for supplying gas to the atomizing mechanism.

[0010] In some embodiments, the atomization mechanism includes a connected atomization assembly and an atomization bomb; the liquid in the atomization bomb can enter the atomization assembly; the second outer wall of the atomization assembly and the third outer wall of the atomization bomb constitute the first outer wall, and the air supply interface protrudes from the second outer wall.

[0011] In some embodiments, the atomizing assembly is detachably connected to the atomizing cartridge.

[0012] In some embodiments, the atomization device further includes a liquid pushing mechanism installed in the accommodating cavity; the liquid pushing mechanism is used to push the liquid in the atomization bomb into the atomization assembly.

[0013] In some embodiments, the liquid pushing assembly includes a push rod, a screw, a driving member and a pressure plate; the driving member is connected to the screw, and the screw is threadedly connected to the push rod; the driving member is used to drive the screw to rotate, so that the push rod moves along the axis of the screw; the push rod is used to push the liquid in the atomizing bomb into the atomizing assembly; the pressure plate is arranged on the driving member and can abut against the push rod.

[0014] In some embodiments, the atomizing assembly, the atomizing bomb, and the liquid pushing mechanism are arranged sequentially along an axial direction.

[0015] In some embodiments, a piston is provided in the atomizing cartridge; and the liquid pushing mechanism is used to push the piston to move.

[0016] In some embodiments, the atomization mechanism also includes a flip-up mechanism, which includes a flip-up cover and a limiting mechanism. The flip-up cover is rotatably connected to the shell and is used to cover the mounting port. The limiting mechanism has a limiting state and a released state. When the flip-up cover rotates, the linkage between the flip-up cover and the limiting mechanism is non-connective coupling, so that the flip-up cover switches the state of the limiting mechanism.

[0017] In some embodiments, the accommodating cavity is provided with a positioning groove that cooperates with the air supply interface. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0035] The following describes the embodiments of the present application in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0036] In the following description, for the purpose of explanation rather than limitation, specific details such as specific system structures, interfaces, and technologies are provided to facilitate a thorough understanding of the present application.

[0037] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of this application to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of this application. Obviously, the embodiments described are only part of the embodiments of this application, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in this application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0038] The terms "first," "second," and "third" in this application are used only for descriptive purposes and should not be understood as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly indicating the number of the indicated technical features. Thus, a feature defined as "first," "second," or "third" may explicitly or implicitly include at least one of such features. In the description of this application, "multiple" means at least two, for example, two, three, etc., unless otherwise specifically defined. All directional indications in the embodiments of this application (such as up, down, left, right, front, back...) are only used to explain the relative positional relationship, movement, etc. between the components under a specific posture (as shown in the accompanying drawings). If the specific posture changes, the directional indications also change accordingly. In addition, the terms "including" and "having," as well as any variations thereof, are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusions. For example, a process, method, system, product, or device that includes a series of steps or units is not limited to the listed steps or units, but may optionally include steps or units that are not listed, or may optionally include other steps or units that are inherent to these processes, methods, products, or devices.

[0039] References herein to "embodiments" mean that a particular feature, structure, or characteristic described in connection with the embodiments may be included in at least one embodiment of the present application. The appearance of this phrase in various places in the specification does not necessarily refer to the same embodiment, nor does it constitute an independent or alternative embodiment that is mutually exclusive of other embodiments. It is understood, both explicitly and implicitly, by those skilled in the art that the embodiments described herein may be combined with other embodiments.

[0040] Embodiments of the present disclosure provide an atomization device. Referring to FIG1 , the atomization device may include an atomization device 2 and a charger 1. The charger 1 is used to charge the atomization device 2. In some examples, the atomization device 2 is provided with a charging port, and the plug end of the charger 1 is plugged into the charging port to charge the power supply 28 of the atomization device 2. In other examples, the charger 1 charges the power supply 28 of the atomization device 2 wirelessly. For example, the charger 1 charges the power supply 28 of the atomization device 2 using Bluetooth charging.

[0041] In some embodiments, the atomization device also includes other instruments, such as a spare charger 1, an installation box (the installation box is used to assemble the atomization device 2 and the charger 1 together for easy transportation, etc.), etc.

[0042] 2 and 3 , the atomizing device may include a housing 23 , an atomizing mechanism 22 and a flip cover mechanism.

[0043] The housing 23 has an accommodating chamber 231 and an installation port. The installation port is communicated with the accommodating chamber, so that the atomizing mechanism 22 can be installed in the accommodating chamber through the installation port. For example, the liquid pushing assembly hereinafter, the air supply mechanism 25 hereinafter and the power supply 28 etc. can all be installed in the accommodating chamber through the installation port. For another example, the housing also has an accommodating chamber, and the accommodating chamber is also communicated with the installation port, and the liquid pushing assembly hereinafter, the air supply mechanism 25 hereinafter and the power supply 28 etc. can all be installed in the accommodating chamber through the installation port. For another example, the housing also has an accommodating chamber and a placement port, and the accommodating chamber is also communicated with the placement port, and the liquid pushing assembly hereinafter, the air supply mechanism 25 hereinafter and the power supply 28 etc. can all be installed in the accommodating chamber through the placement port.

[0044] The atomizing mechanism 22 is used to spray out atomized liquid (which can be called an atomizing medium). For example, the liquid can be a medicinal liquid, a nutrient solution, a beauty liquid, an essence, an essence milk, a disinfectant, an insecticide, an insecticide, etc., so that the atomizing device 2 can be applied to a variety of fields (such as the medical field, the beauty field, the agricultural field, etc.); for example, when the atomizing device 2 is used in the beauty field, the atomizing device 2 can be called a beauty instrument, an atomizer, etc. The atomizing mechanism 22 may include a detachably connected (such as a snap-on) atomizing component 221 and an atomizing bomb 222. The atomizing component 221 is connected to the atomizing bomb 222, and the atomizing bomb 222 is used to store liquid (which can also be called a medium). The liquid in the atomizing bomb 222 flows into the atomizing component 221 and is atomized and sprayed out by the atomizing component 221.

[0045] The atomizing mechanism 22 can be detachably installed in the accommodating cavity; for example, the atomizing mechanism 22 can be detachably installed in the accommodating cavity by means of a buckle, a bolt, a latch, etc.; for another example, the limiting mechanism 24 restricts the atomizing mechanism 22 in the accommodating cavity. In this way, when replacing the atomizing mechanism, the atomizing mechanism 22 can be taken out from the installation port, and then the atomizing mechanism 22 to be replaced can be installed in the accommodating cavity through the installation port, thereby solving the problem that the atomizing mechanism of the existing beauty instrument is not convenient to replace. There can be multiple atomizing mechanisms 22, so that different beauty liquids can be injected into multiple atomizing mechanisms 22 respectively, thereby reducing microbial deterioration and contamination in the atomizing mechanism.

[0046] The flip mechanism can be used on a device having a housing 23 with a mounting opening, and can cooperate with a component to be mounted, allowing the component to be installed within or removed from the housing 23. For example, the device can be an atomizer 2, and the flip mechanism is used on the atomizer 2. In this case, the component to be mounted can be the atomizer 22. Another example is a display screen, a main chassis, etc. This article uses the example of a flip mechanism being used on the atomizer 2, and the component to be mounted being the atomizer 22.

[0047] The flip cover mechanism may include a flip cover 21 and a limiting mechanism 24 .

[0048] The flip cover 21 is used to cover the installation opening, and the installation opening can be opened and closed by rotating the flip cover 21. The material of the flip cover 21 can be a metal material, such as iron, copper, etc.; it can also be a non-metallic material, such as plastic, etc.

[0049] The flip cover 21 is rotatably connected to the housing 23, for example, by a hinge. The limiting mechanism 24 is movably disposed within the housing 23. This allows the limiting mechanism 24 to form a linkage with the flip cover 21, such that the limiting mechanism 24 can be switched to a corresponding state by rotating the flip cover 21.

[0050] The limiting mechanism 24 has a limiting state and a released state. The limiting state can be understood as the state in which the limiting mechanism 24 is used to limit the atomizing mechanism 22 in the housing 23, that is, the limiting mechanism 24 cooperates with the limiting portion of the atomizing mechanism 22 to limit the atomizing mechanism 22 in the accommodating chamber.

[0051] The released state can be understood as the state in which the limiting mechanism 24 is used to release the atomizing mechanism 22, that is, the flip cover 21 enables (for example, by driving, driving, triggering, etc.) the limiting mechanism 24 to release the restriction on the limiting portion. That is, in this article, only when the limiting mechanism 24 is matched with the limiting portion of the atomizing mechanism 22, the state in which the limiting mechanism 24 is located is called the limited state. Any state of the limiting mechanism 24 other than the limited state can be called the released state; for example, the released state of the limiting mechanism 24 can be the state in which the limiting mechanism 24 is located when the limiting mechanism 24 is in contact with the non-limiting portion of the atomizing mechanism 22; for another example, the released state can also be the state in which the limiting mechanism 24 is located when the limiting mechanism 24 is decoupled from the atomizing mechanism 22 (which can be called uncoupled or separated).

[0052] When the flip cover 21 rotates, the linkage between the flip cover 21 and the limiting mechanism 24 is non-connective coupling, so that the flip cover 21 switches the state of the limiting mechanism 24. In this way, the non-continuous coupling can avoid the flip cover 21 from being coupled to the limiting mechanism 24 during rotation (for example, during the opening or closing process of the flip cover 21), and can provide more operating methods between the flip cover 21 and the limiting mechanism 24 (for example, the free stroke of opening the cover, the coupling stroke of opening the cover, etc. below). Switching the state of the limiting mechanism 24 can enable the limiting mechanism 24 to fix the atomizing mechanism 22 in the housing 23, or release the restriction on the atomizing mechanism 22, so as to facilitate the installation and disassembly of the atomizing mechanism 22. The non-continuous coupling and switching the state of the limiting mechanism 24 can omit the step of separately operating the limiting mechanism 24 to release or restrict the atomizing mechanism 22, so as to solve the problem of needing to separately operate the limiting mechanism 24 after the flip cover 21 rotates.

[0053] The linkage between the flip cover 21 and the limiting mechanism 24 is a non-connective coupling. It can be understood that when the flip cover 21 rotates, it can be divided into a decoupling stroke between the flip cover 21 and the limiting mechanism 24 (such as the free stroke for opening the cover, the empty stroke for opening the cover, the free stroke for closing the cover and the empty stroke for closing the cover) and a coupling stroke (such as the coupling stroke for opening the cover and the coupling stroke for closing the cover) hereinafter.

[0054] The flip cover 21 switches the state of the limiting mechanism 24 , which can be understood as the state of the limiting mechanism 24 switching from the limiting state to the released state, or the state of the limiting mechanism 24 switching from the released state to the limiting state.

[0055] The rotation of the flip cover 21 may include an opening process of the flip cover 21 and a closing process of the flip cover 21 .

[0056] In some embodiments, when the flip cover 21 is opened, the linkage between the flip cover 21 and the limiting mechanism 24 is non-connective, so that the flip cover 21 switches the limiting mechanism 24 from a restricted state to a released state. In this way, when the flip cover 21 is opened, the installation opening is exposed, and the limiting mechanism 24 releases the restriction on the atomizing mechanism 22, thereby facilitating the removal of the atomizing mechanism 22.

[0057] For example, during the opening process of the flip cover 21, the opening process of the flip cover 21 includes a cover-opening coupling stroke and a cover-opening free stroke in sequence. In this way, when the flip cover 21 is just opened, the flip cover 21 can allow the limiting mechanism 24 to release the restriction on the atomizing mechanism 22.

[0058] As another example, during the opening process of the flip cover 21, the opening process of the flip cover 21 includes, in sequence, an opening idle stroke and an opening coupling stroke. In this way, after the flip cover 21 is opened for a period of time / stroke (i.e., the opening idle stroke), the flip cover 21 can allow the limiting mechanism 24 to release the restriction on the atomizing mechanism 22, so that the atomizing mechanism 22 can be removed from the housing 23. When the flip cover 21 is in the opening idle stroke, the limiting mechanism 24 is in a limited state, that is, the limiting mechanism 24 still restricts the atomizing mechanism 22 to avoid the problem of the user accidentally opening the flip cover 21 and causing an accident. In some examples, the opening process of the flip cover 21 also includes an opening free stroke after the opening coupling stroke. The opening free stroke is similar to the opening idle stroke, and during this stroke, the flip cover 21 and the limiting mechanism 24 are in a decoupled state.

[0059] The following describes in detail the cover opening idle stroke, cover opening coupling stroke and cover opening free stroke of the flip cover 21.

[0060] 4 and 5 , during the cover opening idle stroke, the flip cover 21 is decoupled from the limiting mechanism 24 , and the limiting mechanism 24 maintains the limiting state.

[0061] Illustratively, the limiting mechanism 24 includes a rotating assembly 241 and an elastic assembly 242. The elastic assembly 242 is connected to the rotating assembly 241. The rotating assembly 241 is used to be rotatably connected to the housing 23, for example, the rotating assembly 241 is rotatably connected to the housing 23. The elastic assembly 242 is used to be connected to the housing 23, for example, the elastic assembly 242 is connected to the housing 23.

[0062] During the open lid idle stroke, the flip cover 21 is decoupled from the rotating assembly 241, and the elastic assembly 242 drives the rotating assembly 241 into a limited position, so that the rotating assembly 241 continues to confine the atomizing mechanism 22 within the accommodating chamber. Since the flip cover 21 is decoupled from the rotating assembly 241, the rotating assembly 241 is required to confine the atomizing mechanism 22. At this time, the elastic force of the elastic assembly 242 provides an elastic force to the rotating assembly 241, which causes the rotating assembly 241 to confine the atomizing mechanism 22 within the accommodating chamber.

[0063] In some examples, the rotating assembly 241 only includes the rotating member 2412 , and the elastic assembly 242 only includes the third elastic member 2421 .

[0064] In other examples, the rotating assembly 241 includes a rotating member 2412 and a sliding member 2411. The rotating member 2412 is used to be rotatably connected to the housing 23, for example, the rotating member 2412 is rotatably connected to the housing 23. The sliding member 2411 is used to be slidably connected to the housing 23, for example, the sliding member 2411 is slidably connected to the housing 23 (for example, the housing 23 has a slide groove, and the sliding member 2411 is slidably disposed in the slide groove). The elastic assembly 242 includes a second elastic member 2422 and a third elastic member 2421. The second elastic member 2422 is connected to the rotating member 2412 and is used to be connected to the housing 23. The third elastic member 2421 is connected to the sliding member 2411 and is used to be connected to the housing 23. For example, the second elastic member 2422 and the third elastic member 2421 are also connected to the housing 23. The following description will be made by taking an example in which the rotating assembly 241 includes a rotating member 2412 and a sliding member 2411 , and the elastic assembly 242 includes a second elastic member 2422 and a third elastic member 2421 .

[0065] During the open lid idle stroke, the flip cover 21 is decoupled from the rotating member 2412, and the third elastic member 2421 drives the sliding member 2411 to be in a limited state. The rotating member 2412 is decoupled from the sliding member 2411, or the second elastic member 2422 drives the rotating member 2412 and the sliding member 2411 to be in a balanced state. In this way, since the rotating member 2412 is far away from the atomizing mechanism 22, the slide 2411 cooperates with the rotating member 2412 to achieve the restriction or release of the atomizing mechanism 22, so that the installation of the atomizing mechanism 22 and the limiting mechanism 24 has a greater tolerance rate, so as to better layout the atomizing mechanism 22, the limiting mechanism 24, such as the battery and other components described below, in the accommodating chamber. The second elastic member 2422 acts on the rotating member 2412, and the third elastic member 2421 acts on the sliding member 2411, with a clear division of labor and no interference.

[0066] The sliding member 2411 can be a sliding component that can achieve the above functions. The shape of the sliding member 2411 can be designed according to the requirements of the atomizing device 2. For example, the sliding member 2411 can be a sliding rod, a slider, etc. The rotating member 2412 is a component mounted on the housing 23 and can rotate relative to the housing 23. For example, the rotating member 2412 can be a rod, a slender plate, a long strip, etc.

[0067] The sliding member 2411 cooperates with the limiting portion of the atomizing mechanism 22. In some examples, the sliding member 2411 is plugged into the limiting portion of the atomizing mechanism 22 to limit the atomizing mechanism 22 within the accommodating chamber. At this time, the sliding member 2411 can be a latch, and the limiting portion can be a groove 223; when in the limiting state, part of the sliding member 2411 is plugged into the groove 223. In this way, the atomizing mechanism 22 is limited within the accommodating chamber using a simple plug-in function. For example, the outer wall of the atomizing assembly 221 has a groove 223, and for example, the outer wall of the atomizing bomb 222 has a groove 223, and for example, the groove 223 is formed between the outer bottom wall of the atomizing assembly 221 and the outer top wall of the atomizing bomb 222. The second elastic member 2422 can be a torsion spring and / or a coil spring, and the third elastic member 2421 can be a spring and / or a spring. In other examples, the sliding member 2411 engages with the limiting portion of the atomizing mechanism 22 to confine the atomizing mechanism 22 within the accommodating chamber. In this case, the limiting portion and the sliding member 2411 may be contact-type snaps. In other examples, the sliding member 2411 is bonded to the limiting portion of the atomizing mechanism 22 to confine the atomizing mechanism 22 within the accommodating chamber. In this case, the limiting portion and the sliding member 2411 may be Velcro or the like.

[0068] The flip cover 21 includes a cover body 211 and a trigger portion 212, which is connected to the cover body 211. For example, the cover body 211 and the trigger portion 212 are integrally formed. The cover body 211 can be rotatably connected to the housing 23. In this way, when the cover body 211 is opened, the trigger portion 212 rotates with the cover body 211, thereby coupling or decoupling the trigger portion 212 with the rotating member 2412. During the idle opening stroke, the flip cover 21 is decoupled from the limit mechanism 24, meaning that both the cover body 211 and the trigger portion 212 are decoupled from the limit mechanism 24.

[0069] 6 and 7 , during the cover opening coupling stroke, the flip cover 21 is coupled with the limiting mechanism 24 , so that the flip cover 21 changes the state of the limiting mechanism 24 to the released state (ie, from the limited state to the released state).

[0070] Exemplarily, the limiting mechanism 24 includes a rotating assembly 241 and an elastic assembly 242. During the lid-opening coupling stroke, the flip cover 21 couples with the rotating assembly 241, causing the rotating assembly 241 to transition to a released state, and the elastic assembly 242 forces the rotating assembly 241 back to the limited state. Thus, the cooperation between the rotating assembly 241 and the elastic assembly 242 restricts the atomizing mechanism 22, and the rotating assembly 241 cooperates with the cover plate to release the restriction on the atomizing mechanism 22.

[0071] When the cover is opened from the idle stroke to the coupling stroke, the position of the rotating component 241 changes, so that the elastic force of the elastic component 242 increases. Therefore, during the coupling stroke, the elastic force of the elastic component 242 can restore the rotating component 241 to the state of restricting the atomizing mechanism 22.

[0072] In some examples, the rotating assembly 241 includes a rotating member 2412 and a sliding member 2411; the elastic assembly 242 includes a second elastic member 2422 and a third elastic member 2421. During the cover opening coupling stroke, the flip cover 21 rotates to couple with the rotating member 2412, and the rotating member 2412 abuts the sliding member 2411. The rotating member 2412 drives the sliding member 2411 to rotate to a released state. The elastic forces of the second elastic member 2422 and the third elastic member 2421 both increase, so that the increased elastic force of the second elastic member 2422 can force the sliding member 2411 to return to the state of restricting the atomization mechanism 22; the increased elastic force of the third elastic member 2421 can force the rotating member 2412 to return.

[0073] In some examples, the flip cover 21 includes a cover body 211 and a trigger portion 212. During the cover-opening coupling stroke, the flip cover 21 is coupled to the limiting mechanism 24, meaning that the trigger portion 212 is coupled to the limiting mechanism 24 and the cover body 211 is decoupled from the limiting mechanism 24; that is, the cover body 211 is coupled to the limiting mechanism 24 via the limiting portion.

[0074] As shown in Figures 8 and 9, during the free opening stroke, the flip cover 21 is decoupled from the limiting mechanism 24; the limiting mechanism 24 remains released. As a result, continued opening of the flip cover 21 widens the installation opening, allowing the atomizer 22 to be removed without contacting the flip cover 24, thus facilitating removal of the atomizer 22 from the accommodating chamber.

[0075] When the lid opening coupling stroke reaches the lid opening free stroke, the atomizing mechanism 22 has not been removed, that is, the atomizing mechanism is still located in the accommodating chamber; at this time, the limiting mechanism 24 is used to abut against the non-limiting portion of the atomizing mechanism 22. For example, the first elastic member causes the atomizing mechanism 22 to bounce up, causing the limiting mechanism 24 to abut against the non-limiting portion of the atomizing mechanism 22, thereby reducing the rebound speed of the atomizing mechanism 22.

[0076] For example, during the free travel of the lid opening, the old atomizer mechanism 22 is removed and a new atomizer mechanism 22 is installed. Since the atomizer mechanism 22 is bounced up by the first elastic member, the limiting mechanism 24 abuts against the non-limiting portion of the atomizer mechanism 22. This allows the atomizer mechanism 22 to be pressed against the non-limiting portion of the atomizer mechanism 22 while the installation opening is closed by the flip cover during the subsequent closing process.

[0077] For example, when the cover is opened and the old atomizer mechanism 22 is removed and a new atomizer mechanism 22 is installed, the atomizer mechanism 22 is manually pressed, so that the limiting mechanism 24 can directly cooperate with the limiting portion of the atomizer mechanism 22 to limit the atomizer mechanism 22 in the accommodating cavity.

[0078] Among them, during the cover-opening coupling stroke, the release state of the limiting mechanism 24 is that the limiting mechanism 24 is decoupled from the atomizing mechanism 22. And during the cover-opening free stroke, when the limiting mechanism 24 is in the release state, the limiting mechanism 24 contacts the non-limiting part of the atomizing mechanism 22. The non-limiting part can be understood as the outer wall of the atomizing mechanism 22, such as the outer wall of the atomizing bomb 222, and the outer wall of the atomizing assembly 221. The flip cover 21 includes a cover body 211 and a trigger part 212. During the cover-opening free stroke, the flip cover 21 is decoupled from the limiting mechanism 24, which means that the trigger part 212 and the cover body 211 are both decoupled from the limiting mechanism 24.

[0079] Exemplarily, the limiting mechanism 24 includes a rotating assembly 241 and an elastic assembly 242. During the free travel of the cover, the flip cover 21 is decoupled from the rotating assembly 241, the limiting mechanism 24 remains released, and the elastic assembly 242 drives the limiting mechanism 24 to abut against the non-limiting portion of the atomizing mechanism 22.

[0080] In some examples, the rotating assembly 241 includes a rotating member 2412 and a sliding member 2411; the elastic assembly 242 includes a second elastic member 2422 and a third elastic member 2421. During the free opening stroke, the flip cover 21 is decoupled from the rotating member 2412, and the third elastic member 2421 drives the sliding member 2411 to abut against the non-restricted portion of the atomization mechanism 22. Alternatively, the second elastic member 2422 drives the rotating member 2412 and the sliding member 2411 into a balanced state.

[0081] The limiting mechanism 24 is used to abut against the non-limiting portion of the atomizing mechanism 22. In some examples, after the restriction of the atomizing mechanism 22 is released, the liquid pushing mechanism 26 can be used to push the atomizing mechanism 22 out of the accommodating chamber so that the position of the limiting portion of the atomizing mechanism 22 changes with the atomizing mechanism 22.

[0082] In other examples, referring to Figures 10 and 11, the atomizing device further includes a first elastic member 20. The first elastic member 20 is used to be arranged in the accommodating chamber, for example, the first elastic member 20 is arranged in the accommodating chamber. The atomizing mechanism 22 is installed in the accommodating chamber. Since the atomizing mechanism 22 squeezes the first elastic member 20, the first elastic member 20 generates a compressive elastic force; that is, the first elastic member 20 is used to provide an elastic force to the atomizing mechanism 22. During the opening coupling stroke, since the limiting mechanism releases the restriction on the atomizing mechanism 22, the compressive elastic force of the first elastic member 20 causes the atomizing mechanism 22 to bounce out of the accommodating chamber, thereby changing the position of the limiting portion of the atomizing mechanism 22 and making it easier for the staff to pick up the atomizing mechanism 22. In addition, the limiting mechanism 24 abuts against the non-limiting portion of the atomizing mechanism 22, thereby reducing the bounce speed of the atomizing mechanism 22 to prevent the atomizing mechanism 22 from colliding with the flip cover 21 and causing damage to the atomizing mechanism 22 and the flip cover 21. During the free opening stroke, the limiting mechanism 24 (e.g., the limiting mechanism 24) will normally abut the limiting portion of the atomizing mechanism 22. However, due to the change in the position of the limiting portion, the limiting mechanism 24 can only abut other parts of the atomizing mechanism 22 (i.e., the non-limiting portion). That is, during the free opening stroke, the elastic force of the first elastic member 20 is utilized to cause the limiting mechanism 24 to abut the non-limiting portion of the atomizing mechanism 22. The first elastic member 20 may be at least one of a leaf spring, a spring, and an elastic sheet. The following description will use the first elastic member 20 to change the position of the limiting portion of the atomizing mechanism 22.

[0083] In some embodiments, when the flip cover 21 is closed, the linkage between the flip cover 21 and the limiting mechanism 24 is non-connective, so that the flip cover 21 switches the limiting mechanism 24 from the released state to the restricted state. In this way, for example, during the free travel of the lid, the position of the limiting portion of the atomizing mechanism 22 changes. Then, when the flip cover 21 is closed, the flip cover 21 can cover the installation opening while the limiting mechanism 24 can restrain the atomizing mechanism 22 within the accommodating chamber, thereby eliminating the need to separately operate the limiting mechanism 24 to control the atomizing mechanism 22.

[0084] Exemplarily, during the closing process of the flip cover 21, the closing process of the flip cover 21 sequentially includes a lid closing coupling stroke and a lid closing idle stroke. Furthermore, exemplarily, during the closing process of the flip cover 21, the closing process of the flip cover 21 sequentially includes a lid closing free stroke, a lid closing coupling stroke, and a lid closing idle stroke. The following describes in detail the lid closing free stroke, lid closing coupling stroke, and lid closing idle stroke of the flip cover 21.

[0085] During the free travel of closing the cover, the flip cover 21 is decoupled from the limiting mechanism 24, and the limiting mechanism 24 is in a released state.

[0086] When the atomizing mechanism 22 is installed in the accommodating chamber, for example, the limiting mechanism 24 abuts against the non-limiting portion of the atomizing mechanism 22, so that the state of the limiting mechanism 24 is released. Therefore, the free stroke of closing the cover during the closing process is opposite to the free stroke of opening the cover during the opening process, and all other things are the same. For the understanding of the free stroke of closing the cover, reference can be made to the relevant description of the free stroke of opening the cover. Among them, the flip cover 21 (for example, the cover body 211) can be decoupled from the atomizing mechanism 22, that is, the free stroke of closing the cover facilitates the installation of the atomizing mechanism 22 in the housing 23 to avoid interference from the flip cover 21. Of course, the flip cover 21 and the atomizing mechanism 22 can be in contact.

[0087] During the lid-closed coupling stroke, the flip cover 21 is coupled to the limiting mechanism 24, and the limiting mechanism 24 is in a released state. During the lid-closed coupling stroke, the limiting mechanism 24 is in a released stroke, which can be understood as the limiting mechanism 24 being separated from the atomizing mechanism 22, or the limiting mechanism 24 being in contact with the non-limiting portion of the atomizing mechanism 22.

[0088] In some examples, the rotating assembly 241 includes a rotating member 2412 and a sliding member 2411; the elastic assembly 242 includes a second elastic member 2422 and a third elastic member 2421. During the lid closing coupling stroke, the flip cover 21 couples with the rotating member 2412, while the rotating member 2412 decouples from the sliding member 2411. The third elastic member 2421 drives the sliding member 2411 to abut against the non-restricted portion of the atomizing mechanism 22, thereby releasing the retaining mechanism 24. The second elastic member 2422 is used to drive the rotating member 2412 back to a position where it just contacts the sliding member 2411.

[0089] During the closed lid idle stroke, the flip cover 21 is coupled to the limiting mechanism 24 ; the flip cover 21 is used to press the atomizing mechanism 22 so that the limiting mechanism 24 is switched to the limiting state.

[0090] The closing idle stroke during the lid closing process is the opposite of the opening idle stroke during the lid opening process, but all other aspects are the same. Therefore, the understanding of the closing idle stroke can refer to the relevant description of the opening idle stroke. However, the limit mechanism 24 abuts against the non-limiting portion of the atomizing mechanism 22. During the closing idle stroke, the flip cover 21 is used to press the atomizing mechanism 22 to reset the limit portion of the atomizing mechanism 22 (i.e., the limit portion is aligned with the limit mechanism 24), causing the limit mechanism 24 to cooperate with the limit portion (for example, the pin is inserted into the groove 223), and the state of the limit mechanism 24 is changed to the limited state.

[0091] In some embodiments, when the flip cover 21 is closed, the linkage between the flip cover 21 and the limiting mechanism 24 is decoupled, and the limiting mechanism 24 remains in the limited position. In this way, the atomizing mechanism 22 can be pressed manually or by other means, so that the limiting portion of the atomizing mechanism 22 cooperates with the limiting mechanism 24 to confine the atomizing mechanism 22 within the accommodating chamber; and then the cover is closed so that the flip cover 21 covers the installation opening.

[0092] In this embodiment, the lid closing process may also include a free lid closing stroke, a lid closing coupling stroke, and a lid closing idle stroke. The free lid closing stroke, lid closing coupling stroke, and lid closing idle stroke in this embodiment can be understood with reference to the descriptions of the free lid closing stroke, lid closing coupling stroke, and lid closing idle stroke in the above embodiments. The lid closing idle stroke in this embodiment differs from the lid closing stroke in the above embodiments in that, during the lid closing idle stroke in this embodiment, the flip cover 21 does not press the atomizing mechanism 22.

[0093] In some embodiments, referring to Figures 11 to 15, Figure 13 shows the structure of a portion of the shell to facilitate reflecting the matching relationship between the shell and the air supply interface. The atomizing device 2 also includes an air supply mechanism 25. The air supply mechanism 25 is used to provide gas to the atomizing assembly 221. In this way, the gas provided by the air supply mechanism 25 can enter the atomizing mechanism 22, so that the liquid in the atomizing mechanism 22 is atomized and sprayed out. The air supply mechanism 25 may include an air pump and a vent pipe, and the air pump is connected to the atomizing mechanism 22 (or the air supply interface 224) through the vent pipe.

[0094] The first outer wall 227 of the atomizing assembly 221 is provided with an air supply interface 224, and the air supply mechanism 25 is connected to the air supply interface 224. The air supply interface 224 protrudes from the first outer wall 227 of the atomizing mechanism 22, and can play a role in positioning and preventing mistakes.

[0095] The accommodating chamber 231 is provided with a positioning groove 232 that cooperates with the air supply interface 224. In this way, after the atomizing mechanism 22 is installed in the accommodating chamber 231, the cooperation between the air supply interface 224 and the positioning groove 232 can be utilized to make the atomizing mechanism 22 play a role of positioning and foolproofing; at the same time, the direction of the nozzle on the atomizing mechanism 22 can also be positioned. In some examples, when the limiting mechanism 24 cooperates with the limiting portion of the atomizing mechanism 22, the air supply interface 24 also cooperates with the positioning groove 232. For example, the top of the shell 23 has a mounting port, and the mounting port can extend from the top of the shell 23 along the height direction of the shell to form the accommodating chamber 231 (that is, the accommodating chamber 231 can be called an accommodating groove, and the notch of the accommodating groove can be a mounting port). At this time, the top of the shell 23 also has a positioning groove 232 extending from the top of the shell 23 along the height direction of the shell.

[0096] The inner wall of the air supply interface 224 has a slot 2241, and the air supply mechanism 25 has a protrusion; alternatively, the inner wall of the air supply interface 224 has a protrusion, and the air supply mechanism 25 has a slot. When the air supply mechanism 25 is connected to the air supply interface 224, the protrusion engages with the slot 2241. In other words, the protrusion-slot structure ensures that the air supply mechanism 25 (e.g., an air pipe) and the air supply interface 224 are fixedly connected and communicate with each other.

[0097] Exemplarily, the atomizing mechanism 22 may include an atomizing assembly 221 and an atomizing bomb 222. The second outer wall 228 of the atomizing assembly 221 and the third outer wall 229 of the atomizing bomb 222 constitute the first outer wall 227, and the air supply interface 224 protrudes from the second outer wall 228. In some examples, the second outer wall 228 is located inside the third outer wall 229, that is, the orthographic projection of the third outer wall 229 on the first plane is located at the orthographic projection of the second outer wall 228 on the first plane, and the first plane is perpendicular to the installation direction of the atomizing mechanism 22 (that is, the direction of the elastic force of the first elastic member 20). In other examples, the second outer wall 228 is flush with the third outer wall 229. Thereby, the air supply interface 224 plays a role in positioning and preventing stupidity.

[0098] The atomizing bomb 222 is connected to the atomizing assembly 221, so that the liquid in the atomizing bomb 222 can flow into the atomizing assembly 221; in this way, the path between the atomizing bomb 222 and the atomizing assembly 221 is shorter, and less liquid is wasted.

[0099] The atomizer cartridge 222 is detachably connected to the atomizer assembly 221, for example, by snapping or threading the atomizer cartridge 222 and the atomizer assembly 221. The atomizer assembly 221 has a liquid supply inlet, and the atomizer cartridge 222 has a liquid supply outlet. The liquid supply inlet and the liquid supply outlet are detachably connected to achieve a detachable connection between the atomizer assembly 221 and the atomizer cartridge 222. This detachable connection allows for the replacement of either the atomizer cartridge 222 or the atomizer assembly 221, minimizing deterioration of the liquid within the atomizer cartridge 222. Furthermore, different atomizer assemblies 221 can be matched to the liquid within different atomizer cartridges 222, maximizing liquid absorption.

[0100] The atomizing assembly 221 has an atomizing chamber 225 for receiving liquid from the atomizing bomb 222 and gas from the gas supply mechanism 25, so that the nozzle of the atomizing assembly 221 can spray atomized liquid. The atomizing bomb 222 is used to store liquid; the atomizing bomb 222 has a liquid storage chamber for storing liquid.

[0101] The atomizing device 2 further comprises a liquid pushing assembly, which is used to push the liquid in the atomizing bomb 222 into the atomizing assembly 221 .

[0102] The atomizing assembly 221, the atomizing cartridge 222, and the liquid pushing mechanism are sequentially arranged along an axial direction. This allows the liquid pushing mechanism to push the liquid in the atomizing cartridge 222 into the atomizing assembly 221 in a relatively simple manner. For example, the axial direction may be the height direction of the atomizing device. Another example may be a direction intersecting the height direction of the atomizing device, with the angle between the axial direction and the height direction being between -10° and 10°.

[0103] The liquid pushing assembly can include a push rod, a screw, a driving member, and a pressure plate. The driving member is connected to the screw, and the screw is threadedly connected to the push rod. The driving member is used to drive the screw to rotate, so that the push rod moves along the axis of the screw, so that the push rod pushes the liquid in the atomizing bomb 222 into the atomizing assembly 221. In some examples, the driving member can be a motor and a speed change mechanism, the driving member is in transmission connection with the speed change mechanism, and the speed change mechanism is connected to the screw. The speed change mechanism can be a reducer, a transmission, etc.

[0104] The pressure plate is mounted on the drive member, for example, fixed to the transmission mechanism. The pressure plate is rotatably connected to the screw. This allows the push rod to first press against the pressure plate, thereby preventing damage to the drive member. In some examples, the pressure plate is fixed to the drive member and sleeved onto the outer race of the first bearing, while the screw sleeves onto the inner race of the first bearing.

[0105] A piston 226 is provided in the atomizing bomb 222. The liquid pushing mechanism 26 causes the liquid in the liquid storage chamber of the atomizing bomb 222 to flow into the atomizing chamber 225 of the atomizing assembly 221 through the movement of the piston 226.

[0106] In some examples, the piston 226 is directly connected to the liquid pushing mechanism 26, for example, the piston 226 is connected to the liquid pushing mechanism 26 through a connector (which can be a plate, a rod, etc.). In other examples, the piston 226 is indirectly connected to the liquid pushing mechanism 26, for example, the piston 226 can abut against the liquid pushing mechanism 26.

[0107] The push rod is sleeved in the inner ring of the second bearing. For example, the outer ring of the second bearing abuts against the piston 226; or the outer ring of the first bearing is connected to the piston 226 via a connector. This prevents the push rod from moving and rotating the piston 226 at the same time.

[0108] In some embodiments, the atomizing device 2 further includes a first sensor 29 and a controller. The first sensor 29 is electrically connected to the controller. The controller is configured to control the liquid pushing mechanism 26 to move toward the atomizing bomb 222 when the first sensor 29 detects that the atomizing bomb 222 is installed in the accommodating chamber 231, thereby reducing the waiting time for the atomizing device to discharge liquid after startup. Of course, when there is no atomizing bomb 222 in the accommodating chamber 231, the liquid pushing mechanism 26 is in an initial state (which can be understood as the movement of the liquid pushing mechanism 26 is 0 or close to 0) or returns to the initial state.

[0109] In some embodiments, the atomizing device 2 further includes a second sensor and a controller. The first sensor 29 is electrically connected to the controller. The controller is also used to control the liquid pushing mechanism 26 to stop moving or to retreat to a preset distance when the second sensor detects that the liquid pushing mechanism 26 is in contact with the piston 226. After startup, the purpose of quickly discharging liquid is achieved. For example, the piston 226 is provided with a magnet. When the sensor detects that the liquid pushing mechanism 26 contacts the magnet, the controller controls the liquid pushing mechanism 26 to stop moving or to retreat to a preset distance.

[0110] In some examples, the first sensor 29 and the second sensor may be Hall sensors. The first sensor 29 and the second sensor are mounted within the housing 23. The first sensor 29 and the second sensor may be the same sensor or two sensors. This description uses the example of the first sensor 29 and the second sensor being the same sensor (e.g., the first sensor 29) as an example.

[0111] The controller can be integrated on the circuit board 27. The switch can be installed on the housing 23. The power supply 28 can be a secondary battery, such as a lithium battery. The power supply 28 and the circuit board 27 can be installed in the accommodating cavity 231 or the receiving cavity. In some examples, the circuit board 27 is installed on the inner bottom wall of the housing 23, and the liquid pushing mechanism 26 and the air supply mechanism 25 are both located on the circuit board 27; the first elastic member 20 is located on the liquid pushing mechanism 26; the atomizing bomb 222 is located on the first elastic member 20; the atomizing assembly 221 is located on the atomizing bomb 222; the power supply 28 is located on the air supply mechanism 25; and the limiting mechanism 24 is located on the power supply 28. In this way, the components are relatively compact, making the housing 23 smaller in size, achieving the purpose of being compact and convenient.

[0112] The above description is only an implementation method of the present application and does not limit the scope of patent protection of the present application. Any equivalent structure or equivalent process transformation made using the contents of the description and drawings of this application, or directly or indirectly applied in other related technical fields, are also included in the scope of patent protection of the present application.
