Solution Overview
Problem
Conventional glass atomizers with cylindrical ceramic cores and spiral heating wires have low heating power, resulting in limited vapor production.
Innovation Solution
A glass atomizer design featuring an outer and inner glass tube configuration with a ceramic heating core, air inlet, and ventilation grooves, allowing for efficient e-liquid injection and vapor discharge, utilizing a ceramic heating core with a concave bowl shape and heating wire, and incorporating a silicone fixed part and insulation ring for improved vapor passage.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Power
If a cylindrical ceramic core with spiral heating wire is used, then the structure is simple, but the heating power is low and vapor production is limited
Solution Approach 1:
The atomizer is divided into an outer glass tube and an inner glass tube, creating a segmented structure that allows vapor to be discharged through multiple pathways (between the tubes and through grooves on the inner tube), thereby increasing vapor production without requiring a more complex heating element
Solution Approach 2:
The invention adds a spatial dimension to vapor discharge by creating a three-dimensional vapor passage system with the outer tube, inner tube, and grooves, allowing vapor to exit through multiple surfaces and directions rather than a single point, thus increasing overall vapor output
2Quantity of substance
If a cylindrical ceramic core with spiral heating wire is used, then the manufacturing process is simple, but vapor production is limited
Solution Approach 1:
The inner glass tube features multiple grooves on its top end that act as porous-like discharge pathways, allowing vapor to escape through multiple small openings simultaneously, thereby increasing total vapor production while maintaining a relatively simple glass blowing manufacturing process
3Quantity of substance
If the atomizer uses a simple cylindrical structure, then the device is easy to operate, but vapor distribution is poor
Solution Approach 1:
The vapor discharge system is segmented into multiple channels: the space between outer and inner tubes, and the grooves on the inner tube, which distributes vapor across multiple exit points for better vapor distribution while maintaining a straightforward draw-activated operation
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
Enhances vapor production and simplifies the vapor discharge process, ensuring efficient e-liquid injection and vapor inhalation through the atomizer, with improved air flow and vapor distribution.
Implementation Method 1
the ceramic heating core is in the shape of a concave bowl, and comprises a protruding edge, a bottom, and a heating wire disposed on the bottom
Implementation Method 2
the air enters the atomizer via the air inlet of the outer glass tube, flows through the air hole on the base and the recess on the silicone fixed part, drives the vapor produced by the ceramic heating core to pass through a space between the inner glass tube and the outer glass tube
