Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing porous ceramic atomization cores have low liquid transfer rates, are prone to cracking due to high-temperature heating assembly contact, and suffer from condensate formation that can damage electronic elements and waste atomizing liquid.
Innovation Solution
A porous ceramic atomization core with multiple protruding portions and liquid transfer channels, a support portion to prevent fracturing, and a design to recycle condensate, along with a heating unit attached to the channels, optimizing liquid transfer and preventing condensate accumulation.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Productivity
If a single liquid transfer channel is used in porous ceramic atomization cores, then the structure is simple, but the liquid transfer rate is low which compromises atomization effect
Solution Approach 1:
The ceramic body is divided into multiple protruding portions (at least two), each containing its own liquid transfer channel. This segmentation allows multiple channels to operate simultaneously, increasing the total liquid transfer rate while maintaining a relatively simple overall structure. The channels are distributed across different protruding portions, enabling parallel liquid transport paths.
2Reliability
If heating assembly is attached directly to porous ceramic body, then heating efficiency is high, but cracks are likely to form in the contact surface due to high temperature
Solution Approach 1:
A support portion is introduced as an intermediary component between the heating assembly and the porous ceramic body. This support portion serves as a buffer that reduces thermal shock and prevents cracks from forming at the contact interface, while still allowing effective heat transfer to the ceramic body for atomization.
3Object-affected harmful factors
If atomized steam encounters cold air at air inlet, then condensate is formed, but this leads to waste of atomizing liquid and probably causing damage to electronic elements
Solution Approach 1:
The support portion is designed to intercept and collect condensate before it can reach the electronic elements or cause liquid waste. By positioning the support portion strategically, the condensate that would otherwise be harmful is captured and contained, converting a harmful effect into a manageable feature that protects the device.

AI summary
A porous ceramic atomization core comprises a heating unit and a porous ceramic liquid transfer unit. The porous ceramic liquid transfer unit comprises a ceramic body and a support portion extending downward from the ceramic body. The ceramic body comprises at least two protruding portions connected into a whole through a connecting portion. A liquid transfer channel is arranged in each of the protruding portions. The heating unit is attached to bottoms of the liquid transfer channels. An electronic atomization device comprises an atomizer housing. The porous ceramic atomization core is arranged in the atomizer housing, and the top and bottom of the porous ceramic atomization core are clamped by a sealing element and a base respectively. A liquid chamber is arranged between the atomizer housing and the porous ceramic atomization core. The support portion extends downward from the ceramic body to support the ceramic body, thus preventing the ceramic body from being fractured, and condensate formed on the support portion can be absorbed to be recycled; and multiple protruding portions are arranged on the ceramic body, and the liquid transfer channels are arranged in the protruding portions to feed liquid quickly to improve the liquid transfer efficiency, thus optimizing the atomization effect.
