Electronic Cigarette Dual Heating Wire Replaceable Atomization Assembly
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Conventional electronic cigarettes with a single heating wire require complete replacement when it breaks down, leading to inefficiencies and waste.
Innovation Solution
The electronic cigarette design incorporates two heating wires, where the second heating wire operates during normal conditions and can be easily replaced when it fails, with the atomization assembly being removable and reversible to accommodate the new wire without discarding the entire device.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Device complexity
If a single heating wire is used in the electronic cigarette, then the device structure is simple, but the entire device must be discarded when the heating wire breaks down
Solution Approach 1:
The heating wire is segmented into a replaceable first heating wire and a non-replaceable second heating wire. The first heating wire can be easily replaced when it breaks down, while the second heating wire remains in the device as a backup. This segmentation allows partial replacement without discarding the entire device, resolving the contradiction between simple structure and ease of repair.
2Device complexity
If a single heating wire is used in the electronic cigarette, then the device design is simple, but operational efficiency is reduced due to complete device replacement
Solution Approach 1:
The heating wire is divided into replaceable and non-replaceable segments, allowing the replaceable first heating wire to be swapped out when it fails. This maintains operational efficiency by enabling quick replacement of only the faulty component rather than the entire device, while keeping the overall design relatively simple.
Solution Approach 2:
A second heating wire is pre-installed in the device as a backup before the first heating wire fails. When the first heating wire breaks down, the device can be quickly switched to use the second heating wire, maintaining operational efficiency without requiring complex real-time monitoring or replacement systems.
3Ease of manufacture
If the heating wire is integrated into the entire device, then manufacturing is simple, but electronic waste increases when the heating wire fails
Solution Approach 1:
The heating wire is segmented into a replaceable first heating wire and a permanent second heating wire. When the first heating wire fails, only that segment needs to be replaced while the second heating wire and the rest of the device remain in use. This reduces electronic waste by allowing partial replacement rather than discarding the entire device, while maintaining relatively simple manufacturing processes.
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
This design enhances the operational efficiency and extends the lifespan of the electronic cigarette by allowing for the replacement of the second heating wire without needing to replace the entire device, reducing electronic waste and improving user experience.
Implementation Method 1
a spring (3); a limited post (2); the limited post (2) is disposed in the spring (3)
Implementation Method 2
The atomization assembly comprises a first piece of cotton and a second piece of cotton respectively wrapping the first heating wire and the second heating wire. The cotton can adsorb the condensed e-liquid thus preventing the condensed e-liquid from being inhaled into the users' mouth.
Implementation Method 3
Electronic cigarettes atomize nicotine-containing e-liquid... The atomization assembly comprises a first heating wire and a second heating wire respectively disposed in the upper part and the lower part of the sleeve
Implementation Method 4
the first electrode (10) is disposed on the first sealing joint (11); the first heating wire (12) and the first sealing joint (11) are disposed on two ends of the first fixed seat (14), respectively
