Atomizing Assembly Structure for Easy Disassembly and Leak Prevention
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing electronic cigarette atomizing assemblies are difficult for non-professionals to disassemble, prone to leakage during operation, and require the entire atomizing core to be replaced when it burns out, making maintenance and refilling inconvenient.
Innovation Solution
An atomizing assembly structure featuring a threaded connection between the atomizing core head and tail ends, a tobacco liquid valve with a rotating mechanism, and a top cap that seals the assembly, allowing for easy disassembly, cleaning, and refilling, with a design that prevents leakage and allows for separate replacement of the head end when damaged.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Stability of the object's composition
If the atomizing core is made as an integrated structure, then the structural integrity is improved, but the ease of repair deteriorates because the entire atomizing core must be replaced once burning out
Solution Approach 1:
The atomizing core is divided into two separate parts: the atomizing core head end containing the heating wire and tobacco liquid absorbing piece, and the atomizing core tail end containing the airflow channel. These parts are connected through threaded connection, allowing the head end to be replaced separately when damaged while retaining the intact tail end, thus improving ease of repair while maintaining structural integrity through the threaded connection mechanism
2Ease of manufacture
If the atomizing core is made as an integrated structure, then the manufacturing simplicity is improved, but the loss of substance worsens because the entire atomizing core must be discarded once burning out
Solution Approach 1:
The atomizing core is segmented into replaceable head end and reusable tail end portions. The head end containing consumable components (heating wire, tobacco liquid absorbing piece) can be replaced independently, while the tail end with the durable airflow channel structure is retained and reused. This reduces substance loss by preventing disposal of the intact tail end portion
Solution Approach 2:
The design enables selective discarding of only the consumable head end portion while recovering and reusing the durable tail end portion. The threaded connection allows easy separation and retention of the valuable tail end components, reducing material waste and environmental impact
3Ease of operation
If the atomizing assembly is designed with threaded connection and separable components, then the ease of operation is improved, but the device complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The atomizing assembly is segmented into modular components (atomizing core head end, atomizing core tail end, top cap, tobacco liquid valve) connected through standardized threaded interfaces. This segmentation enables easy assembly and disassembly by users while the standardized threading minimizes the increase in device complexity by using conventional connection mechanisms
4Ease of operation
If the tobacco liquid valve is made rotatable, then the ease of operation is improved for refilling, but the reliability deteriorates due to potential leakage during rotation
Solution Approach 1:
The tobacco liquid valve is designed with a rotatable structure that includes pre-positioned sealing rings at critical interfaces. The sealing rings are installed in advance to ensure leakage-proof operation during the rotation process, allowing users to open the top cap for refilling while maintaining reliability through the pre-installed sealing mechanism
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
Facilitates convenient and intuitive operation, reduces maintenance costs by allowing separate replacement of the atomizing core head end, and ensures leakage-proof operation with dual air inflow compatibility and easy refilling of tobacco liquid.
Implementation Method 1
a heating wire is arranged close to an inside wall of the tobacco liquid absorbing piece
Implementation Method 2
An annular sealing ring is arranged between an inside of the atomizing sleeve and the threaded sleeve; another sealing ring is further arranged on a bottom of a lower end of the top cap, and the sealing ring is in tight fit with the periphery of the tobacco liquid valve
Implementation Method 3
The atomizing core and the tobacco liquid valve are in pluggable connection. The tobacco liquid valve has an upper end connected to the top cap through threads. The atomizing core includes a head end of the atomizing core and a tail end of the atomizing core, fixed together through threaded connection
