Atomizing Head With Contact Ring Fastening
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Conventional electronic cigarette atomizing heads require complex and costly replacement processes, either by wrapping new cotton around the heating component or replacing the entire head, which is inconvenient and wasteful.
Innovation Solution
An atomizing head design featuring a heating component with a liquid absorption component wrapped around its outer circumference, secured by contact rings that simplify assembly and replacement, allowing the liquid absorption component to be easily fastened and swapped without needing to replace the entire head.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If the liquid absorption component is wrapped around the heating component and fastened by the contact ring, then the assembly process is simplified and replacement becomes easy and cost-effective, but the structural complexity increases due to the addition of the contact ring component
Solution Approach 1:
The atomizing head is divided into separate components: the heating component and the liquid absorption component. The liquid absorption component can be independently wrapped around and fastened to the heating component using the contact ring, allowing for easy replacement without replacing the entire atomizing head. This segmentation enables simplified assembly and maintenance operations.
2Ease of operation
If the entire atomizing head is replaced, then the replacement process is convenient, but the cost increases and material waste occurs
Solution Approach 1:
The atomizing head is segmented into a reusable heating component and a replaceable liquid absorption component. Only the liquid absorption component needs to be replaced when worn or damaged, while the heating component remains in use. This eliminates the need to replace the entire atomizing head, reducing material waste and cost while maintaining operational convenience.
Solution Approach 2:
The liquid absorption component is designed as a disposable or easily replaceable part that can be discarded after use, while the valuable heating component is recovered and reused. This approach minimizes material waste by preserving the durable heating element and only replacing the consumable liquid absorption material.

AI summary
An atomizing head is disclosed, including a heating component, a liquid absorption component and at least one contact ring, wherein the liquid absorption component is wrapped around the outer circumference of the heating component, the contact ring includes a base and a first clamping flange extending at a certain angle from an circumferential edge of the base, the base covers one end of the heating component in an axis direction of the heating component, the first clamping flange presses against an outer surface of the liquid absorption component to fasten the liquid absorption component onto the heating component. During the assembling process of the atomizing head, it only requires the liquid absorption component to wrap around the heating component and be pressed against and fastened by the contact ring. An atomizing device and an electronic cigarette are also disclosed.
