Atomizer Buckle Mechanism for E-Cigarette Connection Reliability
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
The traditional atomizing device of electronic cigarettes is prone to detachment from the main body due to the force required for plugging in and out, which can lead to connection slot breakage and improper usage.
Innovation Solution
The atomizing device is designed with a main body divided into three parts, where the nozzle cover covers the first part, the second part is inserted into the power supply device, and the third part, featuring a buckle mechanism, is exposed for easy handling, allowing users to apply force on the buckle to plug in or out the device without putting pressure on the nozzle cover, thus preventing detachment.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If the user holds the nozzle cover to pull out the atomizing device, then the device can be removed from the power supply, but the nozzle cover may detach from the main body due to force applied to the connection slot
Solution Approach 1:
The atomizing device is divided into three parts: the nozzle cover covering the first part, the second part inserted into the power supply device, and the third part exposed outside with the buckle part. This segmentation allows the user to operate on the third part without affecting the connection between the nozzle cover and main body.
Solution Approach 2:
The buckle part formed by the limiting block on the third part serves as an intermediary structure that the user can hold and apply force to. This mediator transfers the user's pulling force away from the connection slot, preventing detachment while still enabling easy removal.
2Strength
If the connection slot buckle connects the nozzle cover and main body, then the nozzle cover is secured, but repeated plugging in/out actions can break the connection slot
Solution Approach 1:
The operational interface (buckle part) is extracted from the connection slot area and placed on the exposed third part. This separates the user interaction point from the critical connection structure, allowing repeated operations without compromising the connection slot's integrity.
Solution Approach 2:
The limiting block is pre-positioned on the main body to form the buckle part before any plugging in/out operations occur. This preliminary structural arrangement ensures that future operations will naturally engage the buckle part rather than stressing the connection slot.
3Ease of operation
If the entire atomizing device is pulled out by holding the nozzle cover, then the device can be removed, but it is difficult to apply sufficient force
Solution Approach 1:
The buckle part extends the operational interface to a new dimension - the exposed third part of the main body. This provides an additional leverage point and surface area for the user to apply force, making removal easier without compromising the connection.

AI summary
The present disclosure provides an atomizing device and an electronic cigarette using this atomizing device, wherein the atomizing device includes a main body and a nozzle cover, the main body includes a first part and a second part; the first part is covered by the nozzle cover, and the second part of the main body is used to insert the power supply device. When the main body is inserted into the power supply device, the main body further includes a third part exposed out of the power supply device, and the third part is further provided with at least one buckle part. The technical scheme of present disclosure can effectively facilitate the user to plug in/out the atomizing device and effectively prevent the nozzle cover from detaching from the main body.
