Electronic Cigarette Atomization Core with Movable Inlet
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Conventional electronic cigarettes have an atomization assembly fixedly connected to the battery assembly, resulting in the e-liquid inlet being constantly immersed, which may lead to unnecessary e-liquid consumption and potential leakage when not in use.
Innovation Solution
The electronic cigarette design separates the e-liquid inlet from the atomization core when the atomization assembly is not combined with the battery assembly, using a mechanism where the electrode pole pushes the atomization core into the e-liquid chamber only when they are connected, allowing e-liquid to permeate into the core, and features a threaded connection for easy renewal of the atomization core.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If the atomization assembly is fixedly connected to the battery assembly, then the structure is simple and reliable, but the e-liquid inlet is constantly immersed leading to unnecessary e-liquid consumption and potential leakage
Solution Approach 1:
The atomization core is made movable relative to the e-liquid chamber through a threaded connection mechanism. The electrode pole can push the atomization core to move towards the chamber when connected, allowing dynamic adjustment of the e-liquid inlet position. This resolves the contradiction by enabling the system to transition between static (reliable) and dynamic (liquid-saving) states based on usage conditions.
Solution Approach 2:
The device is divided into separable components: the atomization assembly and the battery assembly can be detached. The atomization core can be removed from the e-liquid chamber when not in use, preventing unnecessary e-liquid consumption while maintaining structural reliability when connected.
2Device complexity
If the atomization assembly is fixedly connected to the battery assembly, then the structure is simple, but maintenance and renewal of the atomization core become difficult
Solution Approach 1:
The atomization core is designed as a separable component that can be independently removed from the e-liquid chamber through the threaded connection mechanism. This segmentation allows easy maintenance and renewal of the atomization core without affecting other components, resolving the contradiction between structural simplicity and ease of repair.
Solution Approach 2:
The threaded connection provides a dynamic, reversible coupling mechanism that balances structural integrity during use with ease of disassembly for maintenance. The electrode pole's ability to push the atomization core creates a simple yet effective connection that facilitates both operational reliability and convenient renewal.
3Ease of operation
If the e-liquid inlet is constantly immersed in e-liquid, then the atomization core is always ready for use, but this causes unnecessary e-liquid consumption and potential leakage when not in use
Solution Approach 1:
The e-liquid inlet position is made dynamic through the movable atomization core. When the battery assembly is connected, the electrode pole pushes the atomization core into the e-liquid chamber for immediate use. When detached, the atomization core moves away, preventing unnecessary e-liquid consumption while maintaining readiness when connected.
Solution Approach 2:
The system prepares for use by positioning the atomization core into the e-liquid chamber only when the battery assembly is connected. This preliminary action ensures the atomization core is ready for immediate atomization while avoiding premature e-liquid immersion that would cause waste or leakage.
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 prevents unnecessary e-liquid consumption and potential leakage by ensuring e-liquid only enters the atomization core when the device is in use, and allows for easy maintenance and renewal of the atomization core.
Implementation Method 1
a heating wire, a limit cover, an insulation ring, and a joint. The cotton is sheathed on the heating wire; the heating wire is disposed in the limit cover
Implementation Method 2
O-rings, a seal plug, a piece of cotton, a heating wire, a limit cover, an insulation ring, and a joint form an atomization core
Implementation Method 3
The mouthpiece holder is in threaded connection to the chamber. When the atomization core requires renewal, loosen the threads to detach the mouthpiece holder from the chamber
