Vaporization Device Top Cap Flow Rate Control
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing electronic cigarette devices face issues with tar leakage, burnt smell, and poor user experience due to inadequate air flow control, leading to excessive tar flow into the vaporization chamber.
Innovation Solution
The vaporization device incorporates a top cap with non-uniform through holes and a tar absorbing pad to regulate the flow rate of tobacco tar, preventing excessive tar from entering the heating chamber and maintaining optimal vapor production.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Object-affected harmful factors
If air inlet and air outlet are used to block tar leakage, then tar leakage is temporarily prevented, but the problem cannot be resolved fundamentally and leads to poor user experience
Solution Approach 1:
The top cap is designed with non-uniform through holes from the beginning to control tar flow rate, preventing tar leakage before it occurs rather than blocking it after the fact. This preliminary design solution eliminates the need for user intervention and provides a fundamental resolution to the tar leakage problem.
Solution Approach 2:
The through holes in the top cap have non-uniform inner diameters, with at least one hole having a different diameter from the others. This parameter variation allows differential control of tar flow through different pathways, optimizing both tar leakage prevention and vapor production quality.
2Quantity of substance
If excessive tar flows into the vaporization chamber, then vapor production increases, but burnt smell and dry burning occur
Solution Approach 1:
The non-uniform through holes create optimized flow pathways that regulate tar delivery rate to the heating component. This parameter control ensures sufficient vapor production while preventing excessive tar accumulation that would cause burnt smell and dry burning.
Solution Approach 2:
The top cap acts as an intermediary component between the storage chamber and vaporization chamber, mediating the tar flow rate. The non-uniform hole configuration serves as a flow regulation mechanism that balances vapor production needs with prevention of harmful burning effects.
