Solution Overview

Problem

Existing electronic atomization devices are inconvenient for users to hold when the atomizer is placed on a large charging case for charging, as it is difficult to grip both with one hand and the atomizer may detach easily.

Innovation Solution

The electronic atomization device includes an atomization apparatus with an atomizer and a power supply body, a charging apparatus with a separable charging seat, and a protective cover that coats both the apparatus body and the power supply body, allowing stable connection and easy handling.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Quantity of substance

If the charging case volume is large to provide sufficient charging capacity, then the power supply body can be charged adequately, but it becomes difficult for users to hold both the atomizer and charging case with one hand

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvecharging capacityVSAvoidease of holding
Core Design Contradiction:
Quantity of substanceVSEase of operation

Solution Approach 1:

The protective cover merges the atomizer and charging case into a single integrated unit by coating both components. When the atomizer is placed on the charging case, the protective cover envelops both items, allowing users to hold them together as one unit with one hand, thereby resolving the contradiction between sufficient charging capacity and ease of holding.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #5Merging (Combining)

2Reliability

If the grip force is uneven when holding the atomizer and charging case, then the atomizer may detach from the charging case, but maintaining a secure grip becomes difficult

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveconnection stabilityVSAvoidease of gripping
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSEase of operation

Solution Approach 1:

The protective cover combines the atomizer and charging case into a unified structure, distributing the gripping force across both components simultaneously. This ensures that even if grip force is uneven, both items move together as one unit, preventing detachment and maintaining connection stability while improving ease of gripping.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #5Merging (Combining)

3Ease of operation

If the protective cover coats both the apparatus body and power supply body, then the user can hold both with one hand, but the structure becomes more complex

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveease of holdingVSAvoidstructure complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The protective cover is implemented as a flexible shell that can adaptively coat both the apparatus body and power supply body. This flexible shell design provides the integrating function needed to hold both components with one hand, while its flexibility and simplicity minimize the increase in structural complexity compared to rigid mechanical integration solutions.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #30Flexible shells and thin films
