TECHNICAL FIELD

The present invention relates to the technical field of heat-not-burn products, and in particular to a non-contact heat-not-burn heating device.

BACKGROUND

Smoking products such as cigarettes and cigars produce smoke by burning tobaccos during use, while the smoke produced by burning of the tobaccos contains many harmful substances, like tar, and inhalation of these harmful substances for a long term will cause great harm to the human body. With the progress of science and technology and continuous pursuit of a healthy life by people, a cigarette substitute, namely a heat-not-burn product, has emerged. Among them, a typical heat-not-burn scheme is to release effective substances in the smoking products in the heat-not-burn mode, like nicotine.

The heat-not-burn product mainly uses a working principle of low-temperature heating to heat the smoking products to about 300° C., thereby baking out effective ingredients like the nicotine in the smoking products. Because the burning temperature is not reached, the harmful substances like the tar in the smoking products are greatly reduced.

In the related art, the heat-not-burn product generally adopts a contact heating scheme to bake the smoking products, for example, a sword-shaped needle-shaped heating element is inserted into the smoking products for heating. However, the contact heating scheme has the shortcoming of uneven heating, that is, the part in direct contact with the heating element has a higher temperature, while the part far away from the heating element has rapid temperature decrease. Therefore, only the part of the tobacco close to the heating element can be completely baked, leading to the fact that the cut tobacco in the smoking products cannot be completely baked, and not only the cut tobacco is wasted, but also the smoke volume is wasted. If the baking efficiency is improved by increasing the temperature of the heating element, the cut tobacco around the heating element can be easily burnt, which not only affects the taste, but even leads to a large increase in the harmful ingredients and affects physical health.

SUMMARY

The present invention is made based on knowledge and research of the inventor on the following issues:

In the working process of a heat-not-burn product, due to the fact that the contact heating scheme has the shortcoming of uneven heating, the smoking products cannot be completely baked, and not only the cut tobacco is wasted greatly, but also the smoke volume is insufficient.

For this purpose, after a lot of research and experiments, the inventor finds that the smoking process itself is an air flow process. If the air flowing into the smoking products has the higher temperature, the hot air can play a direct role in baking the smoking products. Since the hot air can penetrate and bake all the tobacco of the smoking products with the smoking process, the problem of uneven heating can be effectively solved. Therefore, the smoking product is baked by heating the air and then using the hot air flow during the smoking process to achieve heating, and this scheme can achieve good overall heating effect.

The present invention aims to solve one of the technical problems in the above art at least to some extent. For this purpose, an objective of the present invention is to provide a non-contact heat-not-burn heating device, wherein at least one part of a ceramic heating element is arranged in a cavity defined by a preheating tube, which can achieve the effect of preheating the cavity, improves the heating efficiency and makes the heated flow air bake the smoking product evenly to avoid cut tobacco waste of the smoking product and improve the smoke volume.

To achieve the foregoing objective, an embodiment of the present invention provides a non-contact heat-not-burn heating device which comprises a ceramic heating element and a smoking product bearing assembly, wherein the ceramic heating element comprises a heating body and a heating circuit, the heating body is cylindrical and internally provided with a porous channel, and the heating circuit is arranged on the heating body to heat the air passing through the porous channel; and the smoking product bearing assembly comprises a preheating tube and a blocking piece, the blocking piece is arranged in a cavity defined by the preheating tube to divide the cavity into a first cavity and a second cavity, the first cavity is used for placing the smoking product and preheating the smoking product, and the second cavity is used for placing at least one part of the ceramic heating element.

According to the non-contact heat-not-burn heating device of the embodiment of the present invention, the ceramic heating element is matched with the smoking product bearing assembly, at least one part of the ceramic heating element is arranged in the cavity defined by the preheating tube, which can achieve the effect of preheating the cavity, improves the heating efficiency and makes the heated flow air bake the smoking product evenly to avoid cut tobacco waste of the smoking product and improve the smoke volume. Meanwhile, due to the fact that the ceramic heating element adopts the high-purity aluminum oxide ceramics which have high compactness and almost have no pores in the micro structure, pollutants in fluids cannot enter the ceramic heating element and thus cannot leave pollution or peculiar smell on the surface. Further, because the smoking product bearing assembly separates the smoking product from the ceramic heating element completely, non-contact air heating is completely achieved to ensure that the product is not polluted. In addition, the ceramic heating element adopts the porous arrangement, so that the specific surface area of the honeycomb ceramic body is large enough to achieve sufficient heating of the air. Not only the heating efficiency is high, but also the ceramic heating body has high thermal conductivity, so that the aim of heating the air can be achieved more quickly. Further, the air flow speed is limited to some extent due to the structure of the porous channel, the contact time between the hot air and the smoking product is longer during baking of the smoking product, the heat loss is reduced, and the energy is saved. Moreover, when no smoking action is performed, the hot air can be locked by means of the porous shape of the ceramic heating body, which reduces outer flow of the hot air and further saves the energy. In addition, the smoking product placed in the cavity is separated from the ceramic heating element through the blocking piece, which prevents the ceramic heating element from being in direct contact with the smoking product or being too close to the smoking product to further prevent the part of the smoking product close to the ceramic heating element from being heated to be over 320° C. and burnt. Further, due to the fact that the preheating tube has the preheating effect, and at least one part of the ceramic heating element is arranged in the cavity, the hot air heated by the ceramic heating element bakes the smoking product effectively, the baking efficiency is high, and the smoke volume is further improved.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE EMBODIMENTS

The embodiments of the invention will be described in detail below, examples of the embodiments are shown in drawings, wherein same or similar mark numbers indicate identical or similar components or components having same or similar functions. The embodiments described with reference to the drawings below are illustrative and intended to explain the present invention and cannot be construed as limiting the present invention.

In order to better understand the above technical scheme, the illustrative embodiments of the present invention are described in more detail with reference to the drawings below. Although the drawings show the illustrative embodiments of the present invention, it should be understood that the present invention can be achieved in various forms without being limited by the embodiments illustrated. On the contrary, these embodiments are provided to understand the present invention more thoroughly, and can convey the scope of the present invention to those skilled in the art completely.

In order to better understand the above technical scheme, the above technical scheme will be described in detail in combination with the specification drawings and the specific embodiments below.

First, after a lot of research and experiments, the inventor of the present invention finds that the heating scheme of heating the air and utilizing the hot air to bake the smoking product in the smoking process is better in heating effect on the whole.

However, when the air heating scheme is adopted, first it is necessary to select a suitable heating element to heat the air, and when the heating element heats the air, room temperature air needs to enter the heating element, and the temperature of air should reach 300° C. or above after flowing out of the heating element; second, some general smoking habits have to be considered, that is, about 20 ml per second must be ensured during temperature rise, and each puff lasts for about 3 seconds, and the heating element needs a total heating efficiency of about 60 ml air.

To achieve the above effect, the inventor has learned through a lot of experiments that when a heating wire is used to heat the air, the heating wire should have high temperature, and only when the temperature of the heating wire is up to 600° C. or above, it can heat the air flowing through to more than 300° C., and the heating wire will cool quickly as long as air flows by, in this way, each puff of smoking will make the temperature of the heating wire drop by 200-300° C. Therefore, the heating wire needs power compensation during smoking, otherwise it may be difficult to guarantee air heating required for smoking; while, power compensation is performed for the heating wire based on the air flow detected by an air flow sensor, due to small contact area between heating wire and air, this power compensation scheme not only needs high power to achieve the required heating effect, but also has the problem of inaccurate gas temperature after heating, untimely compensation response, which may cause uneven temperature in all directions.

In addition, when the flow air is heated to above 300° C. by increasing the temperature of a heater strip, metal ions separated from the heater strip may be mixed into the smoking airflow and enter the human body to do harm to the body health due to temperature increase of the heater strip and direct contact of the heater strip with the air.

For the above, the inventor of the present invention has concluded through a lot of research that when air heating is used to bake a smoking product, the heating element used to heat the air needs to have a large heating area so as to reduce the temperature difference between the heating element and the air; the heating element also needs high heat capacity to resist against the temperature drop caused after the smoking airflow passes, and high thermal conductivity to reduce the heating preparation time.

For this purpose, the applicant finds based on in-depth research on ceramics for years that a larger heating surface area can be obtained by designing a porous structure of the honeycomb ceramics, so that the heating element will have a high air heating efficiency, and the honeycomb ceramic heating element of porous structure is closer to a solid structure and has a higher heat capacity than a ceramic tube of the same size; in addition, the thermal conductivity of alumina material is greater than 30 W/MK, which can make the heat conduction faster and more uniformly, thereby obtaining high thermal conductivity. Therefore, the honeycomb ceramic heating element of porous structure can meet the requirement of baking the smoking product by heating air.

A non-contact heat-not-burn heating device of the embodiment of the present invention is described below with reference to the drawings.

As shown in FIG. 1, FIG. 6 and FIG. 7, the non-contact heat-not-burn heating device provided by the embodiment of the present invention comprises a ceramic heating element 10 and a smoking product bearing assembly 20.

Further, as shown in FIG. 1 and FIG. 2, the ceramic heating element 10 comprises a heating body 11 and a heating circuit 12.

Wherein, the heating body 11 is cylindrical, and the heating body 11 is internally provided with a porous channel 101; and the heating circuit 12 is arranged on the heating body 11 to heat air passing through the porous channel 101.

That is, the heating circuit 12 performs heating work after powered on to heat the air passing through the porous channel 101 to achieve the function of even heating of the air.

Optionally, the heating body 11 can be cylindrical and can also be in the shape of a polygonal cylinder, such as in the shape of a prism, a square column, and a pentagonal column. This is not specifically limited in the present invention.

In an embodiment, as shown in FIG. 2, the heating body 11 is a cylinder, and the porous channel 101 is arranged in the heating body 11 in the axial direction.

In addition, as shown in FIG. 2, the heating circuit 12 is printed on the outer surface of the heating body 11 in the thick film circuit mode. For example, the heating circuit encircles the outer surface of the heating body 11 in the heating coil mode and is integrated with the heating body 11.

According to an embodiment of the present invention, printing materials of the heating circuit 12 comprise silver, tungsten or molybdenum manganese.

Specifically, the outer wall of the cylindrical cellular ceramic heating body is printed with the heating silver paste thick film heating circuit for heating. Due to the fact that the ceramic heating body 11 adopts the porous cellular structure, the heating surface area of the heating element can be greatly increased. According to experiments, the user only needs to heat the heating body 11 to about 380° C. to heat the air to above 300° C. Because the ceramic heating body 11 has higher heat capacity, after each smoking airflow (for example, 50 ml air) passes through the ceramic heating element, temperature decrease is small, only 20-30° C.

When the heating circuit 12 is printed on the outer surface of the heating body 11 in the thick film circuit mode, its heating resistor is generally a PTC thermistor, that is, the resistance increases when the temperature rises. According to multiple temperature increase and decrease experiments, the temperature of the ceramic heating element corresponds to the resistance, so that the temperature of the ceramic heating element can be represented by measuring the resistance. Thus, the temperature of the heating element can be pulled back to the original temperature within several seconds by utilizing the self-compensation effect (the heating element is cooled, the resistance decreases, the current increases, and the power increases) of the thick film heating circuit under constant voltage supply of a DC power supply, and the temperature of the heating element can be kept stable without fluctuations when there is no airflow.

Therefore, in the embodiment of the present invention, due to the cellular structure of the heating body 11, the ceramic heating element can provide sufficient heat capacity, so that the temperature effect of the airflow on the heating element is very small in the simulated smoking process, no power compensation is required, and the effect of the heating air for cigarette smoking can be achieved by self-regulation.

In addition, the heating circuit 12 printed on the heating body 11 in the thick film circuit mode has a clear temperature-sensitive effect. The resistance increases with increase of the temperature and decreases with decrease of the temperature, the heating circuit can be used as a sensor, so no temperature sensor is required to control the temperature of the heating element.

To sum up, the ceramic heating element of the embodiment of the present invention does not need to perform dynamic power compensation based on an airflow sensor, nor does it need to detect or control the temperature based on a temperature sensor, which not only simplifies the complexity of a control system, but also achieves a better control response effect.

Optionally, according to an embodiment of the present invention, through holes of the porous channel 101 are round holes or polygonal holes.

In addition, in an embodiment, the through holes of the porous channel 101 are regularly distributed in the heating body 11, for example, as shown in FIG. 2.

Optionally, when the heating body 11 is a cylinder, the through holes of the porous channel 101 can be evenly distributed in the peripheral direction. Or, as shown in FIG. 2, when the through holes of the porous channel 101 are polygonal holes, the through holes can be distributed in the cylinder in central symmetry.

Understandably, in the embodiment of the present invention, the distribution of the through holes of the porous channel 101 may not be limited, as long as the porous cellular structure of the heating body 11 is limited.

Specifically, in an embodiment of the present invention, the hole diameter of the through holes of the porous channel 101 is 0.1-2 mm, for example, 0.5 mm and 1 mm; and the distance between two adjacent through holes is 0.1-0.5 mm, for example, 0.2 mm and 0.4 mm. Understandably, the hole diameter of the through holes of the porous channel 101 and the distance between two adjacent through holes can be limited according to the specific circumstances of the heating body 11, as long as ventilation can be performed to increase the contact area between the air and the surface.

Optionally, according to an embodiment of the present invention, the heating body 11 is made of aluminum oxide ceramics, aluminum nitride ceramics, silicon nitride ceramics, silicon carbide ceramics, beryllium oxide ceramics or zirconium oxide ceramics.

Wherein, the aluminum oxide content in the aluminum oxide ceramics is greater than 99%, and the density of the aluminum oxide ceramics is not less than 3.86 g/cm3.

Specifically, in an example, as shown in FIG. 2, the ceramic heating element comprises the cellular heating body 11 made of the aluminum oxide ceramics, the heating circuit 12 and wires 13. Wherein, the center of the cellular heating body 11 is provided with the porous channel 101, the porous channel 101 is provided with square holes evenly distributed, the heating circuit 12 is arranged on the outer surface of the heating body 11 in the encircling mode, and the head end and the tail end of the heating circuit 12 are provided with the wires 13.

In addition, the density of the aluminum oxide ceramics of the heating body 11 is 3.9 g/cm3, and the resistance of the heating body 11 can be 0.1-2 Ω, for example, 0.6 Ω and 0.8 Ω; the hole diameter of the square holes of the porous channel 101 can be 1.5 mm, that is, the side length of the square holes is 1.5 mm; and the wall thickness of the porous channel 101 can be 0.2 mm, as shown in FIG. 2, the distance between corresponding sides of two adjacent square holes is the wall thickness of the porous channel 101.

Further, the material of the heating circuit 12 can be silver. Wherein, the printing thickness of the heating circuit 2 is 0.01-0.02 mm, the wires 13 can be silver wires, and the diameter is 0.2 mm.

In the embodiment of the present invention, the purity of the aluminum oxide ceramics for making the heating body 11 is greater than 99%, that is, the ceramics are high-purity aluminum oxide ceramics, the cellular ceramic surface has very high compactness, adsorption of the smoke particles can be effectively prevented, and the effect of preventing peculiar smell can be achieved. The cellular heating body made of the high-purity aluminum oxide ceramics has good thermal conductivity, up to 33 W/MK. The wall thickness and the hole diameter are both very small in the structure of the cellular ceramic heating element, and the heat conduction effect is extremely good. Meanwhile, the contact area with the air can be greatly increased by means of the cellular shape, so that the specific surface area of the honeycomb aluminum oxide ceramics is large, the heating efficiency is high, and the aim of heating the air can be achieved more quickly. In this way, the cellular ceramic heating element of the embodiment of the present invention is arranged under a smoking product to be baked and not in direct contact with the smoking product to be baked. When a user smokes the smoking product, the air flows through the through holes of the heating element honeycomb to be heated to the specific temperature, then the smoking product is quickly heated to about 320° C. when the hot air flows through the smoking product, the heating area and the heating efficiency of the smoking product are greatly improved, the heating is more even, the cut tobacco is carbonized more completely, cut tobacco waste is avoided, the taste of the user is improved, the smoke volume is sufficient, and the effect is not limited by the variety of the smoking product. Further, the air flow speed is limited to some extent due to the structure of the porous honeycomb, the contact time between the hot air and the smoking product is longer, heat loss is reduced, and energy is saved. When there is no smoking action, the porous honeycomb ceramic can lock the hot air while reducing the outflow of hot air, which will further save energy.

To sum up, according to the ceramic heating element of the embodiment of the present invention, the heating body is internally provided with the porous channel, so that the contact area between the heating body and the air can be increased when the air passing through the porous channel is heated by the heating circuit, which makes the specific surface area of the honeycomb ceramic body large and achieves sufficient heating of the air. Not only the heating efficiency is high, but also the ceramic heating body has high thermal conductivity, so that the aim of heating the air can be achieved more quickly. Further, the air flow speed is limited to some extent due to the structure of the porous channel, the contact time between the hot air and a smoking product is longer during baking of the smoking product, heat loss is reduced, and energy is saved. Moreover, when no smoking action is performed, the hot air can be locked by means of the porous shape of the ceramic heating body, which reduces outer flow of the hot air and further saves the energy. In addition, due to the fact that the ceramic heating body has high surface compactness, adsorption of the smoke particles can be effectively prevented, and the effect of preventing peculiar smell can be achieved.

Based on deep research on the ceramic heating element and the smoking product bearing assembly, the inventor of the present invention finds that, in the smoking product of the current common heat-not-burn product, the carbonization temperature of cigarette paper wrapped outside is less than that of the cut tobacco inside; and when the temperature of the cigarette paper wrapped outside the smoking product exceeds 240° C., there will be burnt smell, while the cut tobacco inside needs to be baked at about 330° C. to emit smoke effectively. In this regard, the problem that the tobacco paper will be over-baked before the cut tobacco is heated to the ideal temperature needs to be resolved. Further, the inventor finds through experiments that better use experiences will be achieved during actual smoking if the entire smoking product has the ideal preparation temperature, like 200-220° C.

For this purpose, when the heat-not-burn heating device scheme where the smoking product is not in direct contact with the ceramic heating element is adopted, the smoking product bearing assembly is required to provide the preparation temperature of 200-220° C. Therefore, a bearing part for placing the smoking product, that is, a preheating tube, needs to have a preheating function. In order to prevent the smoking product from being in direct contact with the ceramic heating element, a blocking piece needs to be arranged at the bottom of the preheating tube or in the defined cavity to achieve the effect of position limiting. According to repeated experiments, the blocking piece can not only effectively separate the smoking product from the ceramic heating element, but also achieve the effect that tobacco tar precipitate generated during the smoking process of the smoking product will not condense on the ceramic heating element and the blocking piece, repeated smoking achieves the self-cleaning effect naturally, no peculiar smell is left, no frequent cleaning is required, and high use value can be achieved.

In terms of the heating effect, according to many experiments, the aluminum oxide ceramic tube can serve as a smoking product container, can not only effectively provide the ideal preparation temperature for the smoking product through the high thermal conductivity of the aluminum oxide material, but also achieve the effect that no tobacco tar residue is left due to compactness of the material of the aluminum oxide ceramic tube, and peculiar smell caused by continuous use is avoided.

In addition, in order to increase the heating rate, when the ceramic heating element is controlled to perform heating work, the non-contact heat-not-burn heating device of the embodiment of the present invention adopts the heating strategy of adopting high-power pulling up in the initial stage and maintaining the working temperature at low power after reaching the working temperature. Due to the temperature transfer process, the smoking product and the smoking product bearing assembly have not reached the corresponding temperature except for the ceramic heating element that has reached the working temperature. Therefore, while the ceramic heating element is controlled to maintain the working temperature by low-power heating, the voltage cannot be directly reduced to the voltage in the thermal insulation stage but needs to be slowly reduced.

Therefore, when the ceramic heating element is controlled to enter the thermal insulation stage, the voltage reduction process needs to be completed in multiple stages. For example, two-stage voltage reduction is required. In the first stage, the voltage is quickly reduced; in the second stage, the voltage needs to be slowly reduced to the corresponding voltage in the thermal insulation stage to enter the thermal insulation stage maintaining the working temperature. Because the power is much higher than the heat balance power in order to raise the temperature quickly in the early stage. If the voltage reduction is too slow, the temperature of the smoking product can exceed 330° C. easily when the user smokes the smoking product continuously after the first smoking action, leading to scorching of the smoking product. Therefore, the control process of first reducing the voltage quickly and then reducing the voltage slowly can avoid the situation effectively.

Therefore, as shown in FIG. 1 to FIG. 7, the smoking product bearing assembly 20 comprises a preheating tube 21 and a blocking piece 22.

As shown in FIG. 6, the blocking piece 22 is arranged in a cavity defined by the preheating tube 21 to divide the cavity into a first cavity and a second cavity, the first cavity is used for placing the smoking product and preheating the smoking product, and the second cavity is used for placing at least one part of the ceramic heating element 10.

That is to say, the blocking piece 22 is arranged in the cavity defined by the preheating tube 21 to divide the cavity into two parts, one part is used for placing the smoking product, and the other part is used for containing at least one part of the ceramic heating element 10.

Optionally, as shown in FIG. 1, FIG. 3 and FIG. 5, the blocking piece 22 can be a flow deflector located in the cavity along the wall of the preheating tube 21, and the flow deflector is provided with a plurality of deflector holes 202.

Further, as shown in FIG. 1 or FIG. 3, the plurality of deflector holes 202 are evenly distributed in the peripheral direction.

Specifically, in an example, as shown in FIG. 1 or FIG. 3, the deflector holes 202 are round holes with the hole diameter of 0.1-2 mm.

In this way, when the ceramic heating element 10 performs heating work, the flow deflector separates the ceramic heating element 10 from the smoking product, which can effectively prevent the ceramic heating element 10 from being in direct contact with the smoking product or being too close to the smoking product to further prevent the part of the smoking product close the ceramic heating element from being heated to be over 320° C. and burnt. Further, when a user smokes the smoking product, the hot air can flow into the first cavity quickly through hot air through holes, that is, the deflector holes 202 to bake the smoking product evenly and quickly.

Further, in the embodiment of the present invention, the purity of the aluminum oxide ceramics is greater than 99%, so that the ceramic surface has very high compactness, adsorption of the smoke particles can be effectively prevented, and the effect of preventing peculiar smell can be achieved. Further, the aluminum oxide ceramics have good thermal conductivity, up to 33W/1ViK, so that the heating efficiency is high, and air temperature rise in the cavity can be achieved more quickly.

Meanwhile, the aluminum oxide ceramic tube 21 does not serve as a heating component, which can reduce the heat loss. In addition, on one hand, the hot air through holes adopted can facilitate circulation of hot air; on the other hand, it also prevents direct diffusion of the hot air when there is no smoking action. The heat insulation effect is achieved.

Optionally, in an embodiment, the wall thickness of the ceramic tube achieving the preheating effect is 0.1-0.8 mm. Due to the fact that the wall thickness of the ceramic tube is small, when the ceramic heating element 10 performs heating work, the heat can be transmitted on the ceramic tube easily, and quick preheating can be achieved.

In order to achieve quick preheating of the ceramic tube and improve the preheating effect, optionally, in another embodiment, the heating circuit can be printed on the outer surface of the ceramic tube in the thick film circuit mode; and when the ceramic heating element 10 performs heating work, the ceramic tube with the heating circuit performs heating work simultaneously to achieve the cavity preheating effect.

Wherein, the reserved certain space can achieve the condensation effect.

Further, in an embodiment, the non-contact heat-not-burn heating device further comprises a sealing sleeve 30.

As shown in FIG. 1 and FIG. 8, the sealing sleeve 30 is arranged in the hollow mode to sleeve the smoking product bearing assembly 20 inside, and the bottom of the sealing sleeve 30 extends out in the axial direction to form a condensation cavity 301.

Specifically, the adsorbate 303 can be made of gangue, and the adsorption effect can be greatly improved by utilizing argillaceous composition in the gangue, such as silicon dioxide, ferric oxide and aluminum oxide.

Optionally, as shown in FIG. 1, FIG. 9 and FIG. 10, in an embodiment, the non-contact heat-not-burn heating device further comprises a sealing sleeve 30.

That is to say, the inner diameter of the sealing sleeve 30 is greater than the outer diameter of the ceramic tube 21, the sealing sleeve 30 and the ceramic tube 21 are fixed in the point contact mode, which can greatly reduce heat transmission to avoid heat loss, improve the heat utilization ratio and save energy.

Optionally, in an embodiment, as shown in FIG. 9 and FIG. 10, the sealing sleeve 30 and the smoking product bearing assembly 20, that is, the ceramic tube 21, are subjected to point contact fixing by adopting a heat insulation adhesive 311.

The heat insulation adhesive is adopted to perform the point contact fixing. Due to the fact that the thermal conductivity of the heat insulation adhesive is very low, and the ceramic tube 21 and the sealing sleeve adopts point contact, the heat on the ceramic tube 21 is difficult to transmit to the sealing sleeve, the heat transmission efficiency can be further reduced, the heat loss is reduced, and heating of the sealing sleeve can be avoided.

Optionally, according to an embodiment of the present invention, as shown in FIG. 9 and FIG. 10, the sealing sleeve 30 comprises a first glass tube 312 and a second glass tube 313, the inner diameter of the first glass tube 312 is greater than the outer diameter of the second glass tube 313 to sleeve the second glass tube 313, and the second glass tube 313 and the first glass tube 312 are fixed in the point contact mode.

Specifically, as shown in FIG. 9 and FIG. 10, the position of point contact between the second glass tube 313 and the smoking product bearing assembly 20 (that is, the ceramic tube 21) is located on the upper portion of the second glass tube 313, and the position of point contact between the second glass tube 313 and the first glass tube 312 is located on the lower portion of the second glass tube 313.

That is to say, the heat insulation adhesive 311 for the point contact fixing between the second glass tube 313 and the ceramic tube 21 is located on the upper portions of the second glass tube 313 and the ceramic tube 21, and the heat insulation adhesive 311 for the point contact fixing between the second glass tube 313 and the first glass tube 312 is located on the lower portions of the second glass tube 313 and the first glass tube 312, so that the heat transmission path can be extended, heat transmission to the first glass tube 312 is further reduced, the heat loss is avoided, the heat utilization ratio is effectively improved, and the energy is saved.

According to the non-contact heat-not-burn heating device of the embodiment of the present invention, the ceramic heating element is matched with the smoking product bearing assembly, at least one part of the ceramic heating element is arranged in the cavity defined by the preheating tube, which can achieve the effect of preheating the cavity, improves the heating efficiency and makes the heated flow air bake the smoking product evenly to avoid cut tobacco waste of the smoking product and improve the smoke volume. Meanwhile, due to the fact that the ceramic heating element adopts the high-purity aluminum oxide ceramics which have high compactness and almost have no pores in the micro structure, pollutants in fluids cannot enter the ceramic heating element and thus cannot leave pollution or peculiar smell on the surface. Further, because the smoking product bearing assembly separates the smoking product from the ceramic heating element completely, non-contact air heating is completely achieved to ensure that the product is not polluted. In addition, the ceramic heating element adopts the porous arrangement, so that the specific surface area of the honeycomb ceramic body is large enough to achieve sufficient heating of the air. Not only the heating efficiency is high, but also the ceramic heating body has high thermal conductivity, so that the aim of heating the air can be achieved more quickly. Further, the air flow speed is limited to some extent due to the structure of the porous channel, the contact time between the hot air and the smoking product is longer during baking of the smoking product, the heat loss is reduced, and the energy is saved. Moreover, when no smoking action is performed, the hot air can be locked by means of the porous shape of the ceramic heating body, which reduces outer flow of the hot air and further saves the energy. In addition, the smoking product placed in the cavity is separated from the ceramic heating element through the blocking piece, which prevents the ceramic heating element from being in direct contact with the smoking product or being too close to the smoking product to further prevent the part of the smoking product close to the ceramic heating element from being heated to be over 320° C. and burnt. Further, due to the fact that the preheating tube has the preheating effect, and at least one part of the ceramic heating element is arranged in the cavity, the hot air heated by the ceramic heating element bakes the smoking product effectively, the baking efficiency is high, and the smoke volume is further improved. In addition, when the preheating tube adopts the ceramic tube, due to the fact that the ceramic tube has high surface compactness, adsorption of the smoke particles can be effectively prevented, and the effect of preventing peculiar smell can also be achieved.

As shown in FIG. 1 to FIG. 4, the embodiment of the present invention further provides a non-contact air heating type heat-not-burn heating device which comprises a heating assembly 1, a sealing sleeve 30 and a heat recovery device 3, wherein the side wall of the heat recovery device 3 is internally provided with a first cellular porous channel 31, and the first cellular porous channel 31 divides the heat recovery device 3 into an outer wall 32 and an inner wall 33; the inner wall 33 of the heat recovery device 3 is provided with the sealing sleeve 30, the sealing sleeve 30 is internally provided with the heating assembly 1 in the sleeve mode, and the heating assembly 1 is connected to the heat recovery device 3 through the sealing sleeve 30; the heating assembly 1 is internally provided with a heating body 11; and the heating body 11 is provided with a heating circuit 12, the endpoints of the heating circuit 12 are provided with wires 13, and the heating body 11 is internally provided with a second cellular porous channel 101.

Further, the heating assembly 1 is provided with a preheating tube 21, a flow deflector 22 and a heating element 20 sequentially from top to bottom, wherein the flow deflector 22 is provided with a plurality of deflector holes 202.

Further, the heating assembly 1 and the heat recovery device 3 are both made of the high-purity aluminum oxide ceramics with the density not less than 3.86 g/cm3.

Further, the first group of honeycomb porous channels 31 and the second group of honeycomb porous channels 101 are uniformly arranged square holes or other polygonal holes, with a pore diameter ranging from 0.1 mm to 2 mm, and the minimum distance between two adjacent holes within 0.1 mm-0.5 mm

Further, printing materials of the heating circuit 12 comprise but not limited to silver, tungsten and MoMn (molybdenum manganese).

Further, the wire 13 material includes but is not limited to silver, copper, and nickel. In the embodiment, as shown in FIG. 1, the side wall of the heat recovery device 3 is internally provided with the first cellular porous channel 31, and the first cellular porous channel 31 divides the heat recovery device 3 into the outer wall 32 and the inner wall 33; the inner wall 33 of the heat recovery device 3 is provided with the sealing sleeve 30, the sealing sleeve 30 is internally provided with the heating assembly 1 in the sleeve mode, and the heating assembly 1 is connected to the heat recovery device 3 through the sealing sleeve 30; and the heating assembly 1 is internally provided with the preheating tube 21, the flow deflector 22 and the heating body 11 sequentially from top to bottom, as shown in FIG. 2, the heating body 11 is provided with the heating circuit 12, the endpoints of the heating circuit 12 are provided with the wires 13, and the heating body 11 is internally provided with the second cellular porous channel 101. When needing to smoke, the user places the smoking product (like the cartridge) into the preheating tube 21 to prevent the cartridge from falling off, and the heating circuit 12 starts to heat after powered on. Only after the cartridge is baked at 280° C-320° C., the effective ingredients like the nicotine can be emitted, that is, the smoke for smoking can be produced, so the device needs to be preheated. The preheating is completed after the temperature of the preheating tube 21 and the flow deflector 22 reaches 200° C. Due to the fact that the preheating has completed, the cartridge only needs to be heated from 200° C. to 320° C. during the first and second smoking, that is, the first heating, more quickly than temperature increase from the room temperature, and the smoke volume and the first and second smoking can be further ensured. In order to achieve rapid heating, the heating body 11 is internally provided with the second cellular porous channel 101, and the porous channel is provided with the square holes or other polygonal holes evenly distributed with the hole diameter range of 0.1-2 mm and the minimum distance between two adjacent holes of 0.1-0.5 mm. The expansion area is large, so the air heating efficiency is very high. In addition, the hot air flows through the honeycomb center without contact with the heating circuit 12, and no pollution will be caused. Meanwhile, the heating assembly 1 and the heat recovery device 3 are both made of the high-purity aluminum oxide ceramics with good insulation, high strength and good thermal conductivity, therefore, the heating element 20 has no electric leakage during heating, and the preheating tube 21 and the flow deflector 22 can be rapidly heated due to good thermal conductivity of the high-purity aluminum oxide ceramics, and the user does not have to wait long to smoke the cartridge. When the user smokes the cartridge, the airflow is heated to 320° C. through the heating element 20 and then passes through the deflector holes 202 in the flow deflector 22 to be further homogenized and shunted to flow into the cartridge more evenly to heat the cut tobacco to improve the smoke volume. In the heating process, all the heat not acting on the cartridge will be recovered. Due to the fact that the inner wall 33 of the heat recovery device 3 is provided with the sealing sleeve 30, and the sealing sleeve 30 is internally provided with the heating assembly 1 in the sleeve mode, the heat produced by the heating assembly 1 and not acting on the cartridge will be transferred to the first cellular porous channel 31. In addition, the porous channel is provided with the square holes or other polygonal holes evenly distributed with the hole diameter range of 0.1-2 mm and the minimum distance between two adjacent holes of 0.1-0.5 mm, the expansion area is large, so the heating efficiency is very high, the thermal insulation effect can be achieved, and the energy saving can be achieved by reducing the heating time. During the smoking process, the heated air flows to the second cellular porous channel 101, the air flows into the heat recovery device 3 to further take away the heat in the first cellular porous channel 31 to achieve heat recovery. The sealing sleeve 30 achieves the sealing effect between the heat recovery device 3 and the heating assembly 1, ensuring that the hot air does not flow to other places. During smoking, some fluid contaminants emitted from the cartridge may inevitably remain in the device. As the high-purity alumina ceramics feature high density (not less than 3.86 g/cm3) and almost have no pores in microstructure, so penetration of contaminants in smoke is impossible, and no pollution and odd smell will be left on the surface;
