Longitudinal Atomizer Core for Balanced E-Liquid Supply
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing atomizers face issues with unequal e-liquid consumption at the two ends of the atomization core, leading to potential e-liquid shortage and the need for a thicker design to maintain connectivity, limiting styling options.
Innovation Solution
The atomizer is designed with the atomization core mounted longitudinally, featuring a liquid guiding channel in the center that communicates with one end of the liquid storage cavity while the other end is closed, ensuring balanced e-liquid consumption and reducing thickness.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If two ends of the atomization core are respectively connected to the liquid storage cavity, then e-liquid infiltration is ensured, but the atomizer thickness increases and styling is limited
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies asymmetry by changing from a symmetric dual-end connection structure to an asymmetric single-end connection structure. The atomization core is connected to the liquid storage cavity at only one end through the liquid guiding channel, while the other end remains closed. This asymmetric design eliminates the need for external connection channels, reduces atomizer thickness, and enables greater styling flexibility while maintaining reliable e-liquid infiltration through the single liquid guiding channel.
2Reliability
If two ends of the atomization core are connected to the liquid storage cavity, then liquid supply is maintained, but unequal e-liquid consumption occurs at the two ends
Solution Approach 1:
The patent uses asymmetry by implementing a single-end connection structure where only one end of the atomization core is connected to the liquid storage cavity via the liquid guiding channel. This asymmetric configuration ensures that e-liquid is supplied from a single source, eliminating the unequal consumption problem that occurs when both ends are connected. The closed structure at the opposite end prevents e-liquid leakage and ensures uniform consumption throughout the atomization core.
3Reliability
If a connection channel is formed outside the atomization core, then e-liquid infiltration is ensured, but device complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies merging by integrating the liquid guiding channel directly into the atomization core structure. Instead of forming a separate connection channel outside the atomization core, the liquid guiding channel is merged with the core itself, creating a unified structure. This integration simplifies the overall device structure, reduces the number of components, and eliminates the need for external connection channels while ensuring reliable e-liquid infiltration from the liquid storage cavity to the atomization core.
