Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
In existing atomizers, the atomizing core remains in communication with the liquid chamber during tobacco liquid filling, leading to potential leakage of the liquid.
Innovation Solution
An atomizer design featuring a liquid blocking assembly that isolates the atomizing core from the tobacco liquid during filling, using a rotatable top cover, elastic element, and liquid blocking cover to prevent leakage and ensure proper liquid access when in operation.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of manufacture
If the atomizing core remains in communication with the liquid chamber during filling, then the filling process is simple, but the tobacco liquid leaks from the atomizing core
Solution Approach 1:
The liquid blocking assembly is activated before the filling operation to pre-establish the isolation state. The blocking cover moves to the blocking position in advance to prevent liquid leakage during filling, and only after filling is complete does it move to the non-blocking position to allow liquid access during operation.
Solution Approach 2:
The liquid blocking assembly transitions from a static configuration to a dynamic one where the blocking cover can move between blocking and non-blocking positions. This dynamic adjustment allows the system to adapt its state based on operational requirements, preventing leakage during filling while enabling liquid access during use.
2Reliability
If the atomizing core is isolated from tobacco liquid during filling, then liquid leakage is prevented, but the filling process becomes more complex
Solution Approach 1:
The liquid blocking assembly serves multiple functions: it blocks liquid during filling, allows liquid access during operation, and can be integrated with the existing atomizer structure. The blocking cover works cooperatively with the atomizing core and housing to achieve both isolation and access functions within a unified structure.
Solution Approach 2:
The blocking cover is designed to nest within or around the atomizing core structure, with the liquid blocking assembly integrated into the existing housing and atomizing core components. This nested arrangement adds the blocking function without significantly increasing overall device complexity.
3Reliability
If a liquid blocking assembly is added to prevent leakage, then liquid leakage is prevented, but the device complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The liquid blocking assembly is merged with existing components of the atomizer. The blocking cover integrates with the atomizing core or housing structure, and the driving mechanism combines with the filling operation controls. This merging approach prevents leakage while minimizing the increase in component count.
Solution Approach 2:
Existing components are designed to serve multiple functions: the blocking cover not only prevents leakage but also facilitates the filling process, and the driving mechanism serves both blocking and non-blocking operations. This multi-functionality reduces the need for additional dedicated components.
