Aroma Diffuser Atomizing Module Snap-Fit Assembly
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Conventional aroma diffusers face increased assembly time and costs due to difficult and low-efficiency assembly and positioning of the amplitude adjusting device and atomizing sheet within the housing.
Innovation Solution
The aroma diffuser features a housing with an atomizing device comprising an atomizing shell, sheet, and elastic member, assembled outside the housing, which is then snap-fitted into the housing, along with an object mounting site for the aroma bottle, allowing for easy assembly and fixation, and includes a control circuit for high-frequency vibration to create nano-scale mist dispersion.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of manufacture
If the amplitude adjusting device and atomizing sheet are positioned inside the housing, then the atomization function is achieved, but assembly time and costs increase due to difficult and low-efficiency assembly and positioning
Solution Approach 1:
The atomizing device is segmented into a separate assembly (atomizing sheet, amplitude adjusting device, and housing) that can be manufactured and assembled independently before being integrated into the main housing. This segmentation allows for specialized tooling and assembly fixtures to be used for the atomizing portion, improving assembly efficiency while reducing the complexity of positioning within the final housing assembly.
2Volume of moving object
If the housing structure is made small, then the device portability is improved, but assembly becomes more difficult and time-consuming
Solution Approach 1:
The atomizing components are pre-assembled into a compact unit before being integrated into the housing. This preliminary assembly allows for optimized component layout and reduced overall housing size, while the pre-prepared nature of the atomizing assembly reduces on-site assembly time despite the compact dimensions.
Applied Scientific Principles
This section explains which scientific principles are used to turn an abstract innovation direction into a practical engineering solution.
Function Achieved in This Case
This design enhances assembly efficiency, reduces costs, and improves atomizing efficiency with broad dispersion, creating a pleasant ambient fragrance through nano-scale mist diffusion.
Implementation Method 1
When the atomizing elastic member and the atomizing sheet vibrate at a high frequency at the opening of the aroma bottle, liquid in the aroma bottle, after passing through the atomizing hole, is mixed with a water mist formed by air
Implementation Method 2
liquid in the aroma bottle, after passing through the atomizing hole, is mixed with a water mist formed by air

AI summary
Disclosed is an aroma diffuser, including a housing and an atomizing device. The housing is provided with an object mounting site, an air outlet, and an atomizing mounting site. The atomizing device includes an atomizing shell, an atomizing sheet, and an atomizing elastic member. At least one atomizing hole is formed in the atomizing sheet, and the atomizing shell is provided with an atomizing snap-fit site. During assembly, the atomizing sheet, the atomizing elastic member, and the atomizing shell are assembled outside the housing to form the atomizing device. Then the entire atomizing device is inserted into the housing, and the atomizing snap-fit site is snap-fitted on the atomizing mounting site to achieve mounting and fixation of the atomizing device to the housing. A simple structure and the assembly outside the housing avoid positioning of the atomizing sheet and the atomizing elastic member with the housing.
