Abstract: An atomizer of an electronic cigarette includes an outer housing, and the outer housing is internally provided with a liquid storage cavity and an atomization assembly; the atomization assembly includes a first side wall and a second side wall opposite to each other, and an atomization surface extending from the first side wall to the second side wall; a holder is provided within the outer housing, and the holder is provided with a first surface opposite to the atomization surface along the axial direction of the outer housing; and an atomization cavity is formed between the first surface and the atomization surface; and the first surface is configured to be inclined towards the atomization surface along the extension direction of the atomization surface, and is configured to receive a liquid substrate seeped from the atomization assembly and/or condensate formed by condensation of the aerosol within the atomization cavity.

Abstract: A suction nozzle assembly includes: a suction nozzle base provided with an air guide channel and a suction nozzle mounted on the suction nozzle base, the suction nozzle having a rotation shaft portion and a suction nozzle portion transversely extending from the rotation shaft portion, a rotation central axis of the rotation shaft portion being disposed in a biased manner relative to a central axis of the suction nozzle base and a central axis of the suction nozzle portion respectively, the suction nozzle portion forming an air suction channel communicating the air guide channel with outside air, and the air suction channel including an air suction end away from the rotation shaft portion. The suction nozzle portion transversely rotates around the rotation shaft portion between a first position and a second position relative to the suction nozzle base.

Abstract: Provided herein are a sidestream smoke removal device and a control method thereof. The sidestream smoke removal device according to some embodiments includes a housing in which a smoking space is formed, an ignition portion configured to ignite the smoking article inserted into the smoking space, a sidestream smoke processing portion configured to process sidestream smoke generated from the smoking article inserted into the smoking space, a temperature sensor configured to measure the temperature of the smoking article inserted into the smoking space, a display disposed outside the housing, and a controller configured to monitor smoking progress with respect to the smoking article on the basis of the measured temperature and display a monitoring result through the display. The sidestream smoke removal device can visually provide a series of information related to smoking progress to a user, and accordingly, ease of use and safety may be significantly improved.

Abstract: An inhalation device with which it is possible to improve usability and promote users' satisfaction and safety with the inhalation device includes a device body housing to and from which a panel can be attached and detached, and includes a heating unit which heats an inhalation component source for generating an inhalation component; a power supply unit which feeds electric power to the heating unit; a sensor unit which detects attachment of the panel to the housing and which measures data associated with the panel; a storage unit which stores a plurality of operational profiles; and a control unit which identifies an operational profile associated with the data measured by the sensor unit and causes said inhalation device to operate according to the operational profile.

Abstract: An aerosol-generating device includes a housing, a lid, a mouthpiece, and at least one UV diode. The housing defines a capsule-receiving cavity. The lid is configured to close the housing. The lid is fixedly coupled by a hinge to the housing at a first point and releasably couplable to the housing at a second point that is different from the first point. The mouthpiece is couplable to the lid opposite the housing such that air entering the housing and drawn through the capsule-receiving cavity exits out of the mouthpiece. The at least one UV diode is configured to sanitize an interior of the aerosol-generating device when the at least one UV diode is actuated.
