Atomizer Airflow Channel Inversion for Macromolecule Reduction
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing atomizers produce excessive aerosol macromolecules due to excessive turns in the air channel, leading to a poor taste.
Innovation Solution
The atomizer design includes a support and a bottom cover connected in a perpendicular direction, defining a direct airflow channel between an air inlet and outlet, with the atomization surface parallel to the airflow, eliminating turns and guiding airflow efficiently through an atomization cavity.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Device complexity
If air is blown from bottom to heating area and fed toward two sides with turns, then the atomization structure is compact, but excessive aerosol macromolecules are generated resulting in poor taste
Solution Approach 1:
The patent inverts the conventional airflow path by making the atomization surface extend parallel to the airflow direction rather than perpendicular to it. This inversion eliminates the need for air to turn at right angles, allowing airflow to pass directly from the bottom air inlet through the atomization core to the top air outlet, thereby reducing macromolecule formation while maintaining structural compactness
2Volume of moving object
If air channel has excessive turns to feed air to heating area, then the atomizer can be compact, but the aerosol produces excessive macromolecular particles
Solution Approach 1:
The patent inverts the conventional airflow path by making the atomization surface extend parallel to the airflow direction rather than perpendicular to it. This inversion eliminates the need for air to turn at right angles, allowing airflow to pass directly from the bottom air inlet through the atomization core to the top air outlet, thereby reducing macromolecule formation while maintaining structural compactness
Solution Approach 2:
The patent changes the dimensional relationship between the atomization surface and airflow path. Instead of the atomization surface being perpendicular to the airflow (requiring turns), it is oriented parallel to the airflow direction, creating a straight-through path that reduces turbulence and macromolecule formation while maintaining a compact vertical structure
