Atomizer Liquid Guide Member Residual Medium Utilization
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
In existing atomizers, a significant portion of the atomizable medium in the liquid storage cavity cannot reach the atomization component for effective usage, resulting in low utilization of the medium.
Innovation Solution
The atomizer incorporates a liquid guide member with at least two liquid guide surfaces that communicate the liquid storage cavity with the liquid outlet hole, ensuring that residual atomizable medium is guided into the atomization component for use.

Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Productivity
If a simple liquid storage cavity structure is used, then the device complexity is reduced, but the atomizable medium cannot reach the atomization component effectively, resulting in low utilization
Solution Approach 1:
A liquid guide member is introduced as an intermediary component between the liquid storage cavity and the atomization component. This guide member includes guide surfaces that channel and direct the atomizable medium from the storage cavity toward the atomization component, ensuring effective delivery without requiring complex cavity structures.
Solution Approach 2:
The liquid delivery path is segmented into distinct functional zones: the liquid storage cavity, the liquid guide member with guide surfaces, and the atomization component. This segmentation allows each component to perform its specific function efficiently, with the guide member specifically responsible for directing liquid flow.
2Loss of substance
If the liquid storage cavity is designed without guide structures, then the manufacturing precision requirements are reduced, but residual atomizable medium remains in the cavity, reducing utilization
Solution Approach 1:
The liquid guide member serves as a mediator that addresses the residual liquid problem without requiring high-precision machining of the storage cavity itself. The guide member's specially designed guide surfaces provide the necessary flow directionality, while the main cavity can be manufactured with standard precision tolerances.
Solution Approach 2:
High precision is applied locally only to the liquid guide surfaces of the guide member, rather than requiring the entire storage cavity to meet high precision standards. This localized approach ensures effective liquid guidance while maintaining cost-effective manufacturing for the majority of the component.
