Referring to fig. 1-3, an embodiment of the present utility model provides an atomizing device 100, the atomizing device 100 being capable of heating an aerosol-generating substrate so that the substrate can be vaporized into an atomizing gas.

The atomizing device 100 includes a housing 10, an atomizer 20, an airflow sensor 30, and a battery support 16, wherein the atomizer 20 and the battery support 16 are disposed on the housing 10, the airflow sensor 30 is disposed on the battery support 16, and the housing 10 can provide a certain protection for the atomizer 20 and the battery support 16.

A battery 11 is mounted in the battery holder 16, the battery 11 being adapted to power the atomizer 20, the atomizer 20 being capable of converting electrical energy into thermal energy, thereby atomizing the aerosol-generating substrate in the atomizer 20 to form an atomized gas for inhalation by a user. The battery holder 16 has an intake passage 14.

The airflow sensor 30 may be used to activate the atomizer 20 in order for the atomizer 20 to heat the aerosol-generating substrate. For example, when a user inhales at the nozzle of the atomizer 20, air flows from the air inlet channel 14 to the air outlet channel 21 of the atomizer 20, the air flow sensor 30 can detect the change of air pressure in the air inlet channel 14, and the control board 50 of the atomizer 100 can receive the detection data of the air flow sensor 30 and control the atomizer 20 to start heating. Wherein the air flow sensor 30 may be provided to the plate body of the control plate 50.

In some of these embodiments, the airflow sensor 30 may be a microphone or other structure.

Referring to fig. 4 and 5, the battery holder 16 further has a liquid storage capillary groove 41, where the liquid storage capillary groove 41 is located in the air intake channel 14, so that in the case that condensate is generated in the air intake channel 14, the liquid storage capillary groove 41 can better intercept the condensate by using capillary force, and reduce the situation that the condensate flows to other structures, so as to reduce the influence on other structures, for example, reduce the safety problem caused by the condensate flowing to the battery 11, and reduce the phenomenon that the condensate flows to the airflow sensor 30 to cause the airflow sensor 30 to be self-started.

In some embodiments, the liquid storage capillary groove 41 extends along the air flow direction of the air inlet channel 14, so that the influence of the liquid storage capillary groove 41 on the air flow in the air inlet channel 14 can be reduced, and air inlet is smoother.

In some of these embodiments, the battery holder 16 may include a holder body 161 and a first rib 42, the first rib 42 being connected to the holder body 161. The holder body 161 may have the intake passage 14 described above. The first ribs 42 are connected to the bracket body 161 and located in the air inlet channel 14, and the first ribs 42 extend along the air inlet direction of the air inlet channel 14, and a liquid storage capillary groove 41 is formed between the first ribs 42 and the bracket body 161. In this way, the liquid storage capillary groove 41 at the first bead 42 can suck in condensate when condensate flows through the first bead 42 of the intake passage 14.

In some embodiments, the battery holder 16 may further include a second rib 43, the second rib 43 being connected to the holder body 161 and located in the intake passage 14, the second rib 43 extending in the intake direction of the intake passage 14, and the second rib 43 being spaced apart from the first rib 42.

In some embodiments, a liquid storage capillary groove 41 is also formed between the second rib 43 and the bracket body 161. In some embodiments, a liquid storage capillary groove 41 is also formed between the first rib 42 and the second rib 43. In this way, when condensate flows through the second bead 43 of the air intake channel 14, the condensate can be sucked into the liquid storage capillary groove 41 at the second bead 43, and the first bead 42 and the liquid storage capillary groove 41 at the second bead 43 cooperate with each other, so that condensate or liquid leakage between the first bead 42 and the second bead 43 can be sucked into the liquid storage capillary grooves 41 at both sides.

In some embodiments, the bracket body 161, the first rib 42 and the second rib 43 may be integrally formed, for example, by a mold. The bracket body 161, the first ribs 42 and the second ribs 43 may have three independent structures, and the three may be fixed in one body by means of fasteners, gluing, fastening connection, etc. after being formed.

In some of these embodiments, the first bead 42 has a capillary gap with the housing 10 in a state where the battery holder 16 is located within the housing 10. In this way, in the side of the first bead 42 facing away from the liquid storage capillary groove 41, condensate in the gas intake passage 14 can enter the liquid storage capillary groove 41 through the capillary gap to adsorb the condensate. In other embodiments, a capillary gap may also be provided between the second bead 43 and the housing 10.

In some embodiments, the liquid storage capillary groove 41 may be a groove structure besides the structure formed by the ribs, for example, the liquid storage capillary groove 42 may be a groove formed on the bracket body 161.

In some of these embodiments, the reservoir capillary groove 41 may be disposed vertically, for example, the reservoir capillary groove 41 may be disposed along the height direction of the battery support 16. The liquid storage capillary groove 41 may be disposed laterally, for example, the liquid storage capillary groove 41 may be disposed in a direction perpendicular to the height direction of the battery holder 16.

Referring to fig. 3 to 5, in some embodiments, the intake passage 14 may include an escape passage 140, a first intake passage 141, a second intake passage 142, and a third intake passage 143, and the escape passage 140, the first intake passage 141, the second intake passage 142, and the third intake passage 143 are sequentially communicated.

Airflow sensor 30 may be in communication with third air inlet passage 143, and airflow may flow from third air inlet passage 143 through second air inlet passage 142 and first air inlet passage 141 and out of escape passage 140, e.g., gas within air inlet passage 14 may be able to escape battery holder 16 via escape passage 140 away from the opening of first air inlet passage 141 and into atomizer 20.

The extension direction of the escape passage 140 is different from that of the first air intake passage 141, and the extension direction of the first air intake passage 141 is different from that of the second air intake passage 142, so that condensate can be slowed down from flowing from the first air intake passage 141 into the second air intake passage 142.

The extending direction of the second air intake passage 142 is different from the extending direction of the third air intake passage 143, so that condensate can be slowed down from flowing from the second air intake passage 142 into the third air intake passage 143.

The liquid storage capillary groove 41 may be located in at least one of the first air intake passage 141, the second air intake passage 142, and the third air intake passage 143. For example, the liquid storage capillary groove 41 may be located in the first air intake passage 141. For another example, the liquid storage capillary groove 41 may be located in the second air intake channel 142. For another example, the liquid storage capillary groove 41 may be located in the third air intake passage 143. For another example, the liquid storage capillary groove 41 may be located in the first air intake passage 141 and the second air intake passage 142. For another example, the liquid storage capillary groove 41 may be located at the first air intake passage 141 and the third air intake passage 143. For another example, the liquid storage capillary groove 41 may be located in the second air intake passage 142 and the third air intake passage 143. For another example, the liquid storage capillary groove 41 may be located at the first air intake passage 141, the second air intake passage 142, and the third air intake passage 143.

Referring to fig. 6 and 7, in some embodiments, the length extension direction of the escape channel 140 is perpendicular to the length extension direction of the first air inlet channel 141, so as to help increase the probability of collision between the residual atomized gas flowing from the escape channel 140 into the first air inlet channel 141 and the battery support 16, so that more atomized gas can form condensate in the first air inlet channel 141, and effectively reduce the situation that the atomized gas flows into the second air inlet channel 142 or the third air inlet channel 143 to form condensate.

In some embodiments, the length extension direction of the second air inlet channel 142 may be perpendicular to the length extension direction of the first air inlet channel 141 and the length extension direction of the third air inlet channel 143, so that the length extension direction of the first air inlet channel 141, the length extension direction of the second air inlet channel 142, and the length extension direction of the third air inlet channel 143 are perpendicular to each other, which not only helps to increase the probability of collision between the residual atomized gas flowing from the first air inlet channel 141 into the second air inlet channel 142 and the battery bracket 16, but also helps to slow down the flow of the condensate in the first air inlet channel 141 into the second air inlet channel 142, thereby helping to better trap the residual atomized gas and the condensate in the battery bracket 16.

Referring to fig. 3 to 5, in some embodiments, the second air inlet channel 142 may penetrate through the outer surface of the bracket body 161, so as to reduce the difficulty in forming the first air inlet channel 141 and the second air inlet channel 142, and thus reduce the manufacturing difficulty of the bracket body 161.

In some embodiments, the liquid storage capillary groove 41 located in the first air inlet channel 141 or the second air inlet channel 142 may be defined by a rib and the bracket body 161, or may be defined between two adjacent ribs, or may be a groove formed in the bracket body 161.

In some embodiments, the battery support 16 may further include a guide member 17, and the guide member 17 may be mounted to the support body 161, for example, the guide member 17 may be mounted at the second air inlet channel 142, so as to help block the condensate from directly leaking to the battery 11, and also help guide the condensate to the second air inlet channel, and also have an air inlet guiding function.

In some embodiments, the guide 17 may be a silicone member, so that the guide 17 made of silicone material helps to improve the tightness of the connection with the support body 161, so that atomized gas or condensate is not easy to leak at the connection between the guide 17 and the support body 161.

In some of these embodiments, the guide 17 may be a cotton structure, for example, the guide 17 may be liquid absorbent, which helps to absorb a portion of the condensate and also helps to improve the tightness of the connection of the guide 17 to the holder body 161, so that the atomized gas or condensate is not easily leaked at the connection of the guide 17 to the holder body 161.

In some of these embodiments, the atomizing device 100 may further include a sensor bracket 181 and a bottom cover 182, and the air flow sensor 30 may be mounted to the sensor bracket 181. The sensor holder 181 may be connected to the end of the battery holder 16 facing away from the atomizer 20, and the air flow sensor 30 may be clamped to the sensor holder 181.

The bottom cover 182 may be attached to the bottom of the housing 10 and cover the sensor bracket 181, the bottom cover 182 may be provided with an air intake through hole 1821, the air intake through hole 1821 may communicate with the air intake passage 14, for example, the air intake through hole 1821 may communicate with the third air intake passage 143, and the air intake hole may help to replenish air to the third air intake passage 143.

In some embodiments, the sensor support 181 may further include a plurality of protrusions 183, the plurality of protrusions 183 may be spaced apart from a surface of the sensor support 181 facing the battery support 16, and the protrusions 183 may abut the battery support 16, such that the protrusions 183 facilitate a space between the surface of the sensor support 181 facing the battery support 16 and the battery support 16, thereby facilitating routing through the space.

In some embodiments, the sensor bracket 181 may be a silica gel member, so that the silica gel sensor bracket 181 helps to improve the tightness of the third air inlet channel 143, so that the gas is not easy to leak.

In some of these embodiments, the aerosolization device 100 can further include a light guide 19, the light guide 19 can be positioned between the sensor holder 181 and the bottom cover 182, and the light guide 19 can be opposite the light source on the control board 50. In this way, the light source can be designed to emit light when the control board 50 activates the atomizer 20, and the light guide 19 can guide out the light emitted by the light source and realize the bottom light effect of the atomizer 100.

In the battery support 16 and the atomizing device 100 provided in the embodiments of the present utility model, the battery support 16 has the air intake channel 14 and the liquid storage capillary groove 41, and the liquid storage capillary groove 41 is located in the air intake channel 14, so that in the case that condensate is generated in the air intake channel 14, the liquid storage capillary groove 41 can better intercept the condensate by using capillary force, and reduce the situation that the condensate flows to other structures, thereby reducing the influence on other structures, for example, reducing the safety problem caused by the condensate flowing to the battery 11, and reducing the phenomenon that the condensate flows to the airflow sensor 30 to cause the airflow sensor 30 to be self-opened.
