Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Stability of the object's composition
If the peripheral wall thickness is increased to maintain structural stability, then the structural stability is improved, but the heating efficiency and atomization speed deteriorate
Solution Approach 1:
The patent specifies a precise thickness range of 0.1 mm to 0.4 mm for the peripheral wall, optimizing this critical parameter to achieve the right balance between structural stability and heating efficiency. This parameter optimization allows the substrate to be heated rapidly while maintaining sufficient structural integrity during atomization operation.
2Productivity
If the peripheral wall thickness is decreased to improve heating efficiency, then the atomization speed is improved, but the structural stability deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
The patent establishes a minimum thickness of 0.1 mm to ensure structural stability is not compromised, while the maximum of 0.4 mm ensures heating efficiency is maintained. This parameter range optimization resolves the contradiction by finding the optimal thickness window that satisfies both structural and functional requirements.
3Productivity
If the hollow space volume is increased to provide sufficient aerosol release space, then the aerosol utilization rate is improved, but the device volume increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent utilizes the radial dimension by creating a hollow cylindrical structure where the peripheral wall forms a ring-shaped hollow space. This dimensional approach allows the aerosol release space to be distributed around the central axis, providing sufficient volume for aerosol generation and release while maintaining a compact overall device footprint.

AI summary
Provided in the embodiments of the present application are an aerosol generating medium and an aerosol generating device. The aerosol generating medium comprises a medium peripheral wall used for being heated to generate aerosol, a hollow space being defined by the medium peripheral wall, and the thickness of the medium peripheral wall being 0.1 mm-0.4 mm. In the aerosol generating medium provided by the embodiment of the present application, the hollow space is defined by the medium peripheral wall, thus reducing the weight and the thickness of the aerosol generating medium, and facilitating heated atomization; after being generated, aerosol can be directly released from the hollow space, thus achieving enough aerosol release space; and the configuration of the thickness dimension of the medium peripheral wall ensures the structural stability of the aerosol generating medium itself, and also allows both the surface and the inside of the medium peripheral wall to be fully heated when the medium peripheral wall is being heated, thus helping to generate aerosol rapidly, and achieving high use experience of users.
