Extended Atomizer Core Structure for Shorter Smoke Path
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
The existing atomizers with water filters have a long smoke path due to the presence of an air duct and adapter, leading to smoke condensation and blockages, poor sealing, and heat transfer issues affecting the main body.
Innovation Solution
The atomizer design includes an atomizer core that extends directly into the water filter socket, eliminating the need for an air duct or adapter, thus shortening the smoke path and preventing condensation, while the core is located outside the body to avoid heat transfer and insulation needs.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Device complexity
If an air duct and adapter are used to connect the atomizer core with the water filter, then the structure is more complete and the water filter can be installed, but the smoke path becomes longer causing smoke condensation and blockages
Solution Approach 1:
The patent merges the air duct and adapter functions into the atomizer core itself. The atomizer core is designed with an extended structure that directly interfaces with the water filter socket, eliminating the need for separate air duct and adapter components. This integration shortens the smoke path while maintaining structural completeness and sealing capability.
2Volume of moving object
If the atomizer core is placed inside the atomizer body, then the structure is compact, but heat from the atomizer core affects the main body requiring insulation
Solution Approach 1:
The patent extracts the atomizer core from the atomizer body, placing it outside the main body. The atomizer core extends from the mounting portion and interfaces directly with the water filter socket. This separation prevents heat from the atomizer core from affecting the main body, eliminating the need for insulation structures while maintaining a compact overall design.
3Device complexity
If a long smoke path is used to connect atomizer core to water filter, then the water filter can be properly installed, but smoke condenses during transmission consuming the smoke
Solution Approach 1:
The patent combines the atomizer core extension with the water filter interface, creating a direct smoke path. The atomizer core extends outward to interface with the water filter socket, allowing smoke to travel a minimal distance from generation to filtration. This eliminates smoke condensation and loss while maintaining proper water filter installation capability.
4Device complexity
If an air duct and adapter are used, then the water filter can be installed, but the connection between main body and air duct is not easy to seal resulting in poor sealing
Solution Approach 1:
The patent integrates the sealing function into the atomizer core extension and water filter socket interface. The atomizer core extension directly interfaces with the water filter socket, creating a simple, direct connection that is easier to seal reliably compared to multiple separate components. This merging eliminates the sealing difficulties associated with connecting the main body to separate air duct and adapter components.
