Solution Overview
Problem
Existing atomizing nozzles face issues with clogging due to water impurities and scale, leading to reduced filtering effectiveness and inconvenient manufacturing and maintenance processes, especially with small filter cores that quickly become clogged and require complex threading.
Innovation Solution
An atomizing nozzle design featuring a filtering assembly with a core and filter combination, where one end has an embedding portion and the other a closing portion with grooves, allowing for stable positioning and easy insertion into a second body, enabling effective impurity filtration and convenient replacement or cleaning.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If a filter core with small volume is used to filter impurities, then the filtering function is provided, but the filter core surface becomes full of impurities rapidly, causing deteriorated filtering effect or congestion
Solution Approach 1:
The filter is divided into a filter core and a separate filter screen assembly that can be independently removed and cleaned. This segmentation allows the filter screen to be accessed and maintained without replacing the entire filter core, extending the service life and reducing maintenance frequency.
Solution Approach 2:
The filter screen is extracted as a separate removable component from the filter core. This extraction enables the filter screen to be easily removed for cleaning or replacement while keeping the filter core in place, thereby maintaining filtering effectiveness over extended periods.
2Reliability
If the filter core is positioned inside the body by screwing, then the filter is securely fixed, but additional threading manufacturing processes are required, making the small volume body manufacturing inconvenient
Solution Approach 1:
The filter assembly is segmented into a filter core and a separate filter screen assembly with an integrated mounting structure. This segmentation allows the filter screen to be pre-assembled with its own mounting features, eliminating the need for threading operations on the small filter core itself.
Solution Approach 2:
The mounting function is extracted from the filter core and transferred to the filter screen assembly. The filter screen assembly includes its own mounting structure that interfaces with the body, thereby eliminating the need for threading the filter core and simplifying the manufacturing process.
3Volume of moving object
If the filter core volume is made small, then the atomizing nozzle structure is compact, but the filter core surface becomes full of impurities rapidly, causing congestion
Solution Approach 1:
The filtering system is segmented into a permanent filter core and a removable filter screen assembly. This segmentation allows the compact filter core to maintain its small volume while the separate filter screen can be cleaned or replaced to maintain filtering effectiveness over time.
Solution Approach 2:
The filter screen is extracted as a separate removable component from the compact filter core. This extraction enables the small filter core to remain compact while the filter screen can be accessed for cleaning, preventing rapid clogging and extending the filtering effect duration.

AI summary
An atomizing nozzle structure comprises a first body, a second body and a cover combined in order serially to form a combination, wherein a chamber is formed in an inner axial direction of the combination; and a rotor, an anti-leakage assembly and a filtering assembly mounted in the chamber in order. The filtering assembly is a combination of a core and a filter. The core has an embedding portion and a closing portion on two ends, respectively. A hollow portion connects the embedding portion to the closing portion. An air passage is formed in an axial inner portion of the embedding portion. Grooves are formed on a circumferential side surface of the closing portion. The filter is mounted in the hollow portion. The embedding portion is inserted into one end of the second body. Thus, the filtering assembly is combined with the second body by way of insertion, so that the filtering assembly can be stably positioned to facilitate the disassembly for replacement or cleaning.
