Solution Overview

Problem

Existing electronic vaporization devices suffer from insufficient air inflow, which affects the vaporization process and overall performance.

Innovation Solution

The device incorporates a vaporizer with a shell, vaporization assembly, and electrode assembly, featuring an insulating member, first and second electrodes, and air through channels between them, allowing air to enter through multiple branches, including a first and second air inlet branch, to enhance air inflow and optimize vaporization.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Quantity of substance

If air enters through a single air inlet on the electrode, then the device structure remains simple, but air inflow becomes insufficient

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveair inflowVSAvoiddevice structure
Core Design Contradiction:
Quantity of substanceVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The single air inlet is segmented into multiple air inlets (first air inlet and second air inlet) positioned at different locations on the electrode assembly. This segmentation increases the total air intake capacity while maintaining a relatively simple overall structure, directly resolving the contradiction between sufficient air inflow and structural simplicity.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The air inlet design transitions from a single-point entry to a multi-dimensional distribution system with inlets arranged both axially and radially on the electrode. This spatial distribution across multiple dimensions enables enhanced air inflow without proportionally increasing structural complexity, as the inlets are integrated into the existing electrode geometry.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #17Another dimension (Dimensionality change)

2Productivity

If multiple air inlet branches are added to increase air inflow, then vaporization effect improves, but device complexity increases

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

Solution Approach 1:

Multiple air inlet branches are merged into a unified electrode assembly structure where the inlets are integrated with the electrode body rather than being separate components. This merging approach enables improved vaporization efficiency through enhanced air supply while avoiding the complexity increase that would result from adding separate, independent air inlet components.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #5Merging (Combining)

Solution Approach 2:

The electrode assembly serves multiple functions: it provides electrical connection for heating, structural support for the vaporization channel, and acts as a multi-inlet air distribution system. This multi-functionality allows the same component to improve vaporization efficiency through enhanced air supply without adding separate dedicated air inlet structures, thereby avoiding increased device complexity.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #6Universality (Multi-functionality)
