Solution Overview

Problem

Conventional aroma diffusers rely on natural evaporation or ultrasonic atomization, resulting in slow fragrance release and weak air diffusion, which limits their effectiveness in providing a rapid and thorough distribution of essential oils.

Innovation Solution

A heating and atomizing aroma diffuser that uses a heat-generating atomization core to convert liquid essential oils into steam, which is then driven through an air passageway by an airflow generator for rapid and widespread diffusion.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Speed

If natural evaporation or ultrasonic atomization is used, then the device structure is simple, but the fragrance diffusion speed is slow and the fragrance strength is weak

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvefragrance diffusion speedVSAvoiddevice structure complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
SpeedVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent changes the physical state parameter of essential oils from liquid to steam through heating, enabling rapid diffusion. The heating member raises the temperature of the essential oils, causing them to evaporate and form steam that diffuses quickly through the air passageway, thus resolving the contradiction between diffusion speed and device complexity.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes

Solution Approach 2:

The patent utilizes phase transition of essential oils from liquid to vapor through heating. The heating member provides thermal energy that transforms the liquid essential oils into steam, which then rapidly diffuses through the air passageway and into the surrounding environment, achieving fast fragrance distribution.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #36Phase transitions

2Quantity of substance

If natural evaporation or ultrasonic atomization is used, then the device is simple, but the fragrance distribution is not thorough

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvefragrance distribution quantityVSAvoiddevice structure complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Quantity of substanceVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent employs a fan-driven airflow system that creates forced convection currents. The fan generates air flow that carries the steam through the air passageway and distributes it thoroughly throughout the surrounding space, ensuring comprehensive fragrance distribution without requiring a complex multi-component system.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #29Pneumatics and hydraulics

Solution Approach 2:

By transforming essential oils into steam through heating, the patent creates a gas-phase substance that can be readily mixed with air and distributed throughout the environment. This phase transition enables thorough fragrance distribution as the steam integrates seamlessly with air currents.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #36Phase transitions

AI summary

A heating and atomizing aroma diffuser includes a cover with an outlet thereof, an atomization core including a heating member and a liquid conduction member surrounding around the heating member, a spice storage, an airflow generator with an inlet thereof and a control unit. The inlet, the airflow generator, the spice storage, the atomization core and the outlet are connected to cooperatively form an air passageway thereof. The control unit is electrically connected to the heating member and the airflow generator to drive the heating member to generate heat, so that spice liquid adsorbed on a surface of the liquid conduction member is atomized into steam by high temperature, and then simultaneously drive the steam to diffuse into the air through the air passageway, thereby the steam can be diffused rapidly and sufficiently into the air, and has widespread spectrum and strong fragrance.
