Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Volume of moving object

If the atomizing core is arranged inside the atomizing device, then the device structure is compact, but the replacement process becomes complicated and time-consuming

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvedevice structure compactnessVSAvoidreplacement time
Core Design Contradiction:
Volume of moving objectVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The atomizing device is divided into two independent parts: the housing containing the atomizable liquid and the base assembly containing the atomizing core. The base assembly can be detached from the housing, allowing the atomizing core to be replaced by simply removing and reattaching the base assembly, without needing to disassemble the entire device. This segmentation resolves the contradiction by maintaining compact structure while enabling quick replacement.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

2Volume of moving object

If the atomizing core is arranged inside the atomizing device, then the device structure is compact, but the replacement operation becomes difficult

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvedevice structure compactnessVSAvoidreplacement operation ease
Core Design Contradiction:
Volume of moving objectVSEase of operation

Solution Approach 1:

The base assembly is designed as a separable unit from the housing, with the atomizing core mounted on the base. The base assembly includes a mounting part that can be easily attached to and detached from the housing's receiving cavity. This segmentation makes replacement operation simple and intuitive, while the base assembly itself maintains a compact design when attached.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The atomizing core is extracted from the housing and mounted on the detachable base assembly. This extraction allows the core to be easily removed by simply detaching the base assembly from the housing, making the replacement operation straightforward without complex disassembly procedures.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #2Taking out (Extraction)

3Productivity

If the base assembly is detachably connected with the housing, then the replacement efficiency is improved, but the device structure becomes more complex

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvereplacement efficiencyVSAvoiddevice structure complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The device is segmented into a housing and a base assembly that can be detachably connected. The base assembly includes a mounting part with fixing structures that engage with corresponding structures on the housing. This segmentation enables quick replacement by simply attaching or detaching the base assembly, improving efficiency while adding only minimal structural complexity through the connection mechanisms.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

AI summary

The present application discloses an atomizing device and electronic cigarette. The atomizing device includes: a housing having an oil storage cavity and an receiving cavity communicating with the oil storage cavity, and a base assembly having a base and an atomizing core arranged on the base. The oil storage cavity arranges at one side of the receiving cavity far away from an open end of the housing. When the base assembly is in a first state that the base is detachably connected with the housing, at least a part of the base and the atomizing core are accommodated in the receiving cavity from the open end, and the atomizing core is in fluid communication with the oil storage cavity. When the base assembly is in a second state that the base is separated from the housing, the atomizing core is disposed outside the housing along with the base.
