Atomization device

Technical Field

The present disclosure relates generally to electronic devices, and more particularly to a nebulizing device (aerosolization device) for providing an inhalable aerosol (aerosol).

Background

An electronic cigarette is an electronic product that heats and atomizes a volatile solution and generates an aerosol for a user to inhale. In recent years, various electronic cigarette products have been produced by large manufacturers. Generally, an electronic cigarette product includes a housing, an oil chamber, an atomizing chamber, a heating element, an air inlet, an air flow channel, an air outlet, a power supply device, a sensing device and a control device. The oil storage chamber is used for storing the volatile solution, and the heating assembly is used for heating and atomizing the volatile solution and generating the aerosol. The air inlet and the aerosolizing chamber communicate with one another to provide air to the heating assembly when a user inhales. The aerosol generated by the heating element is first generated in the aerosolizing chamber and then inhaled by the user via the air flow passage and the air outlet. The power supply device provides the electric power required by the heating component, and the control device controls the heating time of the heating component according to the user inspiration action detected by the sensing device. The shell covers the above components.

The existing electronic cigarette products have different defects. For example, the prior art electronic cigarette products may have poor assembly yield due to the reduced number of components. Prior art electronic cigarette products may instead increase component manufacturing costs in order to reduce the number of components. Furthermore, prior art electronic cigarette products may not account for the high temperature of the aerosol, creating a potential risk of user burns.

Accordingly, the present disclosure provides an atomizing device that can solve the above-mentioned problems.

The aerosol can be inhaled by the user through the air flow passage 100t formed by the tube 4t2, the tube 2t and the tube 1 t.

In some embodiments, the mouthpiece cover 1 and the cartridge housing 2 may be integrally formed, with the tube 2t and the tube 1t being the same component.

The gas flow passage 100t formed by the tube 4t2, the tube 2t, and the tube 1t may have a smooth inner diameter. The inner diameter of the gas flow passage 100t does not have a significant step difference at the junction of the tube 1t and the tube 2 t.

Referring to fig. 4B, the heating element top cover 4 may have two portions, one portion of the heating element top cover 4 may have a greater width, the inner wall of the aerosolizing chamber 40 may have a non-uniform width, for example, the inner wall of the aerosolizing chamber 40 may have a width 4L 2 and a maximum width 4L 1 due to the shape of the heating element top cover 4, the width 4L 2 being less than the width 4L 1.

The sealing assembly 3 is disposed between the tube 2t of the cartridge housing 2 and the tube 4t1 of the heating assembly top cover 4. The seal assembly 3 may have a hardness less than the hardness of the cartridge housing 2. The seal assembly 3 may have a hardness less than the hardness of the heating assembly top cover 4. The seal assembly 3 may increase the seal between the tube 2t and the tube 4t 1. The seal assembly 3 reduces the tolerance requirements for the tube 2t and the tube 4t 1. The sealing assembly 3 can reduce the difficulty of manufacturing the cartridge housing 2 and the heating assembly top cover 4. The sealing assembly 3 prevents damage to the cartridge housing 2 and the heating assembly top cover 4 during assembly.

The tube 4t2 of the heating assembly top cover 4 extends into the atomizing chamber 40. The pipe 4t2 of the heating assembly top cover 4 extends in the opposite direction to the hole 1 h. The tube 4t2 may bring the airflow path closer to the heating element 5. The tube 4t2 allows the aerosol generated in the nebulizing chamber 40 to be discharged more completely from the air flow channel. The tube 4t2 prevents the aerosol generated in the nebulizing chamber 40 from leaking into the storage compartment 30 from the gap between the seal 3 and the heating element cover 4.

See fig. 4B. When a user inhales from the aperture 1h, an airflow 100f is generated within the cartridge 100A. The front segment of the air flow 100f contains fresh air that enters the aerosolizing chamber 40 through the aperture 7h1 of the cartridge base 7. The rear section of the airflow 100f contains the aerosol generated by the heating assembly 5. Fresh air enters the atomizing chamber 40 through the hole 7h1, and the mist generated by the heating element 5 is discharged along the air flow passage 100t from the hole 1h 1.

The air flow 100f produces a temperature change between the heating element 5 and the tube 4t 2. The aerosol generated by the heating assembly 5 undergoes a temperature change before reaching the tube 4t 2.

The non-uniform width of the inner wall of aerosolizing chamber 40 enhances the temperature change of airflow 100f, the non-uniform width of the inner wall of aerosolizing chamber 40 accelerates the temperature change of airflow 100f, the temperature drop of airflow 100f from width 4L 1 to 4L 2, the temperature drop of airflow 100f from width 4L 1 to 4L 2 is greater and the temperature drop is faster compared to an aerosolizing chamber having a uniform inner wall width, the temperature of the aerosol drawn by the user through aperture 1h can be controlled by adjusting the width of the inner wall of aerosolizing chamber 40. in some embodiments, aerosolizing chamber 40 can also have substantially the same inner wall width.

After entering the atomizing chamber 40 from the opening 7h1, the airflow 100f is heated by the heating element 5 to generate a temperature rise Tr. In certain embodiments, the temperature rise Tr may be in the range of 200 ℃ to 220 ℃. In certain embodiments, the temperature rise Tr may be in the range of 220 ℃ to 240 ℃. In certain embodiments, the temperature rise Tr may be in the range of 240 ℃ to 260 ℃. In certain embodiments, the temperature rise Tr may be in the range of 260 ℃ to 280 ℃. In certain embodiments, the temperature rise Tr may be in the range of 280 ℃ to 300 ℃. In certain embodiments, the temperature rise Tr may be in the range of 300 ℃ to 320 ℃. In certain embodiments, the temperature rise Tr may be in the range of 200 ℃ to 320 ℃.

The air flow from the atomizing chamber 40 may produce a temperature drop Tf before reaching the orifice 1 h. In certain embodiments, the temperature drop Tf may be in the range of 145 ℃ to 165 ℃. In certain embodiments, the temperature drop Tf may be in the range of 165 ℃ to 185 ℃. In certain embodiments, the temperature drop Tf may be in the range of 205 ℃ to 225 ℃. In certain embodiments, the temperature drop Tf may be in the range of 225 ℃ to 245 ℃. In certain embodiments, the temperature drop Tf may be in the range of 245 ℃ to 265 ℃. In certain embodiments, the temperature drop Tf may be in the range of 145 ℃ to 265 ℃.

The airflow passage 100t may have a non-uniform inner diameter. The inner diameter of the air flow passage 100t becomes gradually larger from the position near the heating element 5 toward the hole 1 h. The larger inner diameter near the hole 1h can make the aerosol larger in volume.

By adjusting the width of the inner wall of the atomizing chamber 40 and the inner diameter of the air flow passage 100t, the temperature of the mist sucked from the hole 1h by the user can be controlled. By adjusting the width of the inner wall of the atomizing chamber 40 and the inner diameter of the air flow passage 100t, the volume of the aerosol sucked from the hole 1h by the user can be controlled.

The temperature of the aerosol can be controlled to avoid the user from being scalded by the aerosol. Controlling the aerosol volume can enhance the inhalation experience for the user.

In certain embodiments, the aerosol inhaled by the user via the through-hole 1h may have a temperature below 65 ℃. In certain embodiments, the aerosol inhaled by the user via the through-hole 1h may have a temperature below 55 ℃. In certain embodiments, the aerosol inhaled by the user via the through-hole 1h may have a temperature below 50 ℃.

For example, two numerical values are considered to be "substantially" or "about" the same if the difference between the two numerical values is less than or equal to ± 10% (e.g., less than or equal to ± 5%, less than or equal to ± 4%, less than or equal to ± 3%, less than or equal to ± 2%, less than or equal to ± 1%, less than or equal to ± 0.5%, less than or equal to ± 0.1%, or less than or equal to ± 0.05%) of the mean of the values. For example, "substantially" parallel may refer to a range of angular variation of less than or equal to ± 10 ° from 0 °, e.g., less than or equal to ± 5 °, less than or equal to ± 4 °, less than or equal to ± 3 °, less than or equal to ± 2 °, less than or equal to ± 1 °, less than or equal to ± 0.5 °, less than or equal to ± 0.1 °, or less than or equal to ± 0.05 °. For example, "substantially" perpendicular may refer to a range of angular variation of less than or equal to ± 10 ° from 90 °, e.g., less than or equal to ± 5 °, less than or equal to ± 4 °, less than or equal to ± 3 °, less than or equal to ± 2 °, less than or equal to ± 1 °, less than or equal to ± 0.5 °, less than or equal to ± 0.1 °, or less than or equal to ± 0.05 °.

For example, two surfaces may be considered coplanar or substantially coplanar if the displacement between the two surfaces is equal to or less than 5 μm, equal to or less than 2 μm, equal to or less than 1 μm, or equal to or less than 0.5 μm. A surface may be considered planar or substantially planar if the displacement of the surface relative to the plane between any two points on the surface is equal to or less than 5 μm, equal to or less than 2 μm, equal to or less than 1 μm, or equal to or less than 0.5 μm.

As used herein, the terms "conductive", "electrically conductive" and "conductivity" refer to the ability to transfer electrical current. Conductive materials generally indicate those materials that present little or zero opposition to current flow. One measure of conductivity is siemens per meter (S/m). Typically, the conductive material has a conductivity greater than approximately 10⁴S/m (e.g., at least 10)⁵S/m or at least 10⁶S/m) of the above-mentioned material. The conductivity of a material can sometimes vary with temperature. Unless otherwise specified, the electrical conductivity of a material is measured at room temperature.

As used herein, the singular terms "a" and "the" may include plural referents unless the context clearly dictates otherwise. In the description of some embodiments, a component provided "on" or "over" another component may encompass the case where the preceding component is directly on (e.g., in physical contact with) the succeeding component, as well as the case where one or more intervening components are located between the preceding and succeeding components.

As used herein, spatially relative terms, such as "below," "lower," "above," "upper," "lower," "left," "right," and the like, may be used herein for ease of description to describe one component or feature's relationship to another component or feature as illustrated in the figures. Spatially relative terms are intended to encompass different orientations of the device in use or operation in addition to the orientation depicted in the figures. The device may be otherwise oriented (rotated 90 degrees or at other orientations) and the spatially relative descriptors used herein interpreted accordingly. It will be understood that when an element is referred to as being "connected" or "coupled" to another element, it can be directly connected or coupled to the other element or intervening elements may be present.

As used herein, the terms "about," "substantially," "generally," and "about" are used to describe and account for minor variations. When used in conjunction with an event or circumstance, the terms can refer to the situation in which the event or circumstance occurs explicitly, as well as the situation in which the event or circumstance occurs in close proximity. As used herein with respect to a given value or range, the term "about" generally means within ± 10%, ± 5%, ± 1%, or ± 0.5% of the given value or range. Ranges may be expressed herein as from one end point to another end point or between two end points. Unless otherwise specified, all ranges disclosed herein are inclusive of the endpoints. The term "substantially coplanar" may refer to two surfaces located along the same plane within a few microns (μm), such as within 10 μm, within 5 μm, within 1 μm, or within 0.5 μm. When referring to "substantially" the same numerical value or characteristic, the term can refer to a value that is within ± 10%, ± 5%, ± 1% or ± 0.5% of the mean of the stated values.

The foregoing summarizes features of several embodiments and detailed aspects of the present disclosure. The embodiments described in this disclosure may be readily used as a basis for designing or modifying other processes and structures for carrying out the same or similar purposes and/or obtaining the same or similar advantages of the embodiments introduced herein. Such equivalent constructions do not depart from the spirit and scope of the present disclosure and various changes, substitutions, and alterations can be made therein without departing from the spirit and scope of the present disclosure.
