Solution Overview
Problem
Existing electronic cigarette atomizers face issues with liquid leakage and complex assembly due to lower power-on and air intake configurations, leading to pollution and assembly difficulties.
Innovation Solution
An upper-assembly electronic cigarette atomizer design with an atomization core powered and air intake located at the upper part, featuring a closed liquid storage system with a head cover component, aspiration pipe, and air intake pipe extending into the liquid storage cup, allowing for easy e-liquid injection and preventing leakage.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If the atomizer is powered on at the bottom with lower air intake, then the atomization core can be connected to the battery box, but liquid leakage through the air inlet occurs and assembly becomes complicated
Solution Approach 1:
The patent inverts the conventional bottom-power-on configuration to top-power-on configuration. The atomization core is positioned at the top of the atomizer body, with the heating element and air inlet both located at the top. This inversion eliminates the liquid leakage problem through the air inlet while simplifying the overall assembly structure.
2Reliability
If the atomization core is arranged at the bottom for lower power-on, then connection to battery box is achieved, but assembly difficulty increases and liquid leakage cannot be avoided
Solution Approach 1:
The patent merges the atomization core, heating element, and air inlet into a single integrated top-positioned assembly. The atomization core body integrates the heating element within it, and the air inlet is directly formed on the atomization core body at the top. This merging eliminates the need for separate bottom connections and reduces assembly complexity.
3Ease of operation
If lower air intake is used for bottom power-on, then battery box connection is enabled, but liquid leakage through air inlet hole occurs
Solution Approach 1:
The patent inverts the air intake location from the bottom to the top, positioning it directly on the atomization core body at the top. This ensures that air intake occurs above the e-liquid level, preventing liquid leakage through the air inlet while maintaining ease of operation for power-on.
