As stated in the background, to prevent liquid feeding difficulty in an atomizing medium of a liquid storage cavity of an atomization assembly and prevent liquid leakage caused by imbalance of pressures in the liquid storage cavity, a vent channel is generally arranged. The vent channel is configured to enable the liquid storage cavity to be in communication with an outside atmosphere. The vent channel allows air inside the liquid storage cavity to exchange with the external environment, to help maintain pressure balance between the pressure inside the liquid storage cavity and the external environment. However, during ventilation, the air entering the liquid storage cavity through the vent channel may form a bubble in the atomizing medium, and the bubble may block a liquid feeding opening of the liquid storage cavity, causing liquid feeding difficulty, and finally causing a case of dry heating of the atomization assembly.
To resolve the foregoing problem, this disclosure provides an atomization assembly 100 and an aerosol generating device. A blocking member 113 is arranged between a vent channel 170 and a liquid feeding opening 112, and the bubble flowing to the liquid storage cavity 111 through the vent channel 170 is blocked by using the blocking member 113, to block the bubble from entering the liquid feeding opening 112 and block the liquid feeding opening 112, to ensure smooth liquid feeding of the liquid storage cavity 111, thereby preventing a case of dry heating of the atomization assembly 100.
Referring to
Referring to
The atomization assembly 100 has a liquid storage cavity 111, a liquid feeding opening 112, a vent channel 170, and a blocking member 113. The liquid storage cavity 111 is configured to store an atomizing medium. The liquid feeding opening 112 is in communication with a bottom portion of the liquid storage cavity 111. The vent channel 170 has a first port 1711 and a second port 1721, the first port 1711 is in communication with the liquid storage cavity 111, and the second port 1721 is in communication with an outside atmosphere. The blocking member 113 is arranged in the liquid storage cavity 111, and the blocking member 113 is located on a side of the second port 1721 facing the liquid feeding opening 112, to block a bubble flowing from the second port 1721 to the liquid feeding opening 112.
That the liquid feeding opening 112 is in communication with a bottom portion of the liquid storage cavity 111 means that the liquid feeding opening 112 extends outward from the bottom portion of the liquid storage cavity 111, and the liquid feeding opening 112 is in communication with the liquid storage cavity 111, so that the atomizing medium in the liquid storage cavity 111 can flow to the heating element 130 through the liquid feeding opening 112.
The first port 1711 of the vent channel 170 is in communication with the liquid storage cavity 111, the second port 1721 of the vent channel 170 is in communication with the outside atmosphere, and the vent channel 170 extends from the first port 1711 to the second port 1721.
The first port 1711 of the vent channel 170 may be located at a bottom side wall or a peripheral side wall of the liquid storage cavity 111. The second port 1721 of the vent channel 170 may be directly in communication with the outside atmosphere. The second port 1721 of the vent channel 170 may further be in communication with the outside atmosphere through the atomization cavity 160.
That the blocking member 113 is arranged on a side of the second port 1721 facing the liquid feeding opening 112 means that the blocking member 113 is arranged on a side of the second port 1721 facing the liquid feeding opening 112, and the blocking member 113 and the second port 1721 are arranged at intervals. The blocking member 113 blocks the second port 1721, so that the second port 1721 does not face toward the liquid feeding opening 112. In other words, a bubble generated when entering the liquid storage cavity 111 from the second port 1721 do not flow toward the liquid feeding opening 112 on a front side, but are blocked by the blocking member 113, and then slowly float up and disappear.
In the atomization assembly 100 in this aspect of this disclosure, the blocking member 113 is arranged in the liquid storage cavity 111, and the blocking member 113 is arranged on a side of the second port 1721 facing the liquid feeding opening 112, to block the bubble flowing from the second port 1721 to the liquid feeding opening 112, so that the second port 1721 does not flow toward the liquid feeding opening 112 on a front side. In other words, the bubble generated when entering the liquid storage cavity 111 from the second port 1721 does not flow toward the liquid feeding opening 112 on a front side, but is blocked by the blocking member 113, and then slowly floats up to a liquid surface, or even disappears. Therefore, the bubble is prevented from flowing to the liquid feeding opening 112 and blocking the liquid feeding opening 112, thereby ensuring smooth liquid feeding and preventing a case of dry heating of the atomization assembly 100.
In an aspect, referring to
The first direction X may be a front-rear direction of the atomization assembly 100, a left-right direction of the atomization assembly 100, or even a direction forming an included angle with the front-rear direction of the atomization assembly 100. This aspect is described by using an example in which the first direction X is the left-right direction of the atomization assembly 100.
That the second port 1721, the blocking member 113, and the liquid feeding opening 112 are distributed in sequence along the first direction X means that the blocking member 113 is arranged at a position in which the second port 1721 and the liquid feeding opening 112 are distributed. In other words, the blocking member 113 is arranged at a side from the second port 1721 to the liquid feeding opening 112, to effectively block the bubble formed by the air entering the liquid storage cavity 111 through the second port 1721.
A shape of the second projection of the second port 1721 along the first direction X may vary based on a forming position of the second port 1721. For example, when a bottom surface of the liquid storage cavity 111 is a plane, the second projection of the second port 1721 in the first direction X is a line. For another example, when a bottom surface of the liquid storage cavity 111 is a surface inclined to a direction of the liquid feeding opening 112, the second projection of the second port 1721 along the first direction X is oval or oblate. However, no matter the bottom surface of the liquid storage cavity 111 is a plane or an inclined surface, the first projection of the blocking member 113 along the first direction X can cover the second projection of the second port 1721. In other words, the blocking member 113 can completely block the second port 1721, to effectively block the bubble formed by the air entering the liquid storage cavity 111 through the second port 1721.
In this disclosure, the bubble has certain fluidity. Therefore, to prevent the bubble from bypassing the blocking member 113 and flowing to the liquid feeding opening 112, in an aspect, referring to
The longitudinal direction of the atomization assembly 100 refers to an extension direction of a main airway 115 of the atomization assembly 100, namely, a height direction of the atomization assembly 100 when the atomization assembly is vertically placed. The first direction X and the second direction Y are both perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of the atomization assembly 100. Therefore, the first direction X and the second direction Y are both a transverse direction of the atomization assembly 100. When the first direction X is the left-right direction, the second direction Y is the front-rear direction; and when the first direction X is the front-rear direction, the second direction Y is the left-right direction.
Referring to
In this disclosure, a position relationship between the second port 1721 and the liquid feeding opening 112 may be set according to an actual situation. The second port 1721 may be located on any side of the liquid feeding opening 112. For example, the second port 1721 may be provided in front of, behind, on the left of, or on the right of the liquid feeding opening 112. In addition, the second port 1721 may be located at a central position of the liquid feeding opening 112 along the second direction Y, and the second port 1721 may further be located at a position close to an edge of the liquid feeding opening 112 along the second direction Y.
In an example, referring to
In another example, the second port 1721 is located at a position close to a center of the liquid feeding opening 112 along the second direction Y. In this case, a central plane of the blocking member 113 along the second direction Y may overlap a central plane of the second port 1721 along the second direction Y. In other words, dimensions of extending relative to two opposite ends of the blocking member 113 along the second direction Y relative to two opposite ends of the second port 1721 along the second direction Y are the same.
In an aspect, referring to
In an aspect, referring to
In this disclosure, one or more vent channels 170 may be provided. When a plurality of vent channels 170 are provided, the second ports 1721 of the vent channels 170 are evenly distributed around the liquid feeding opening 112. In this way, vent effects of the vent channels 170 may be evenly distributed.
In an example, referring to
In an aspect, the blocking member 113 is at least 0.5 mm higher than the second port along a longitudinal direction of the atomization assembly 100. Specifically, the blocking member 113 may be higher than the second port by 0.5 mm, 0.6 mm, 0.7 mm, 0.8 mm, 0.9 mm, 1.0 mm, 1.1 mm, 1.2 mm, 1.3 mm, 1.4 mm, 1.5 mm, or 1.6 mm. Theoretically, a higher height of the blocking member 113 is better. Certainly, processing difficulty of the blocking member 113 also needs to be considered. Therefore, the height of the blocking member 113 preferably does not need to be higher than 3.0 mm.
In an aspect, referring to
In an aspect, the blocking member 113 has a long flat shaped structure. The dimension of the blocking member 113 along the second direction Y is much greater than the dimension of the blocking member 113 along the first direction X. Through such setting, a blocking capability of the blocking member 113 along the second direction Y is sufficiently large, and a volume of the blocking member 113 in the liquid storage cavity 111 is as small as possible.
In an aspect, referring to
That the vent channel 170 is formed in the liquid storage tank 110 and the seal gasket 140 means that the vent channel 170 respectively passes through the liquid storage tank 110 and the seal gasket 140, so as to form the liquid storage cavity 111 that is in communication with the outside atmosphere. The vent channel 170 may sequentially pass through the liquid storage tank 110 and the seal gasket 140 until being in communication with the atomization cavity 160, so as to form the liquid storage cavity 111 that is in communication with the outside atmosphere. Alternatively, the vent channel 170 may sequentially pass through the liquid storage tank 110, the seal gasket 140, and the liquid storage tank 110 until being in communication with the outside atmosphere, so as to form the liquid storage cavity 111 that is in communication with the outside atmosphere. The vent channel 170 passes through the seal gasket 140, and the seal gasket 140 is close to the heating element 130 herein. Therefore, heat generated by the heating element 130 can be conducted to the vent channel 170, to heat the air in the vent channel 170, thereby promoting ventilation.
That the vent channel 170 is formed in the liquid storage tank 110 means that the liquid storage cavity 111 that is in communication with the outside atmosphere may be formed by directly arranging the vent channel 170 on a side wall of the liquid storage tank 110.
In an aspect, referring to

In an aspect, referring to
In this disclosure, a length of the transverse hole 1725 is set based on the quantity of the vent channels 170. When one vent channel 170 is provided, the transverse hole 1725 may cover four side edges of the seal gasket 140. When two vent channels 170 are provided, the transverse hole 1725 may cover two adjacent side edges of the seal gasket 140. In addition, a long side or a short side may be selected based on a length requirement.
In an aspect, reference is made. The atomization assembly 100 further has an atomization cavity 160, and the second port 1721 of the vent channel 170 is in communication with the atomization cavity 160. A capillary channel 124 is provided in the atomization cavity 160, and a top end of the capillary channel 124 is in direct communication or in communication with the second port 1721 of the vent channel 170 through a gap.
It should be noted that the capillary channel 124 herein means that at least one dimension of the first cross section perpendicular to a length extension direction of the capillary channel 124 is relatively small, so that a liquid can flow upward along the capillary channel 124 under a capillary action. The first cross section of the capillary channel 124 may be rectangular, square, circular, oval, or another combined shape.
In addition, it should be noted that, that the top end of the capillary channel 124 is in direct communication with the second port 1721 of the vent channel 170 means that liquid flowing out from the top end of the capillary channel 124 may directly enter the second port 1721 of the vent channel 170. That the top end of the capillary channel 124 is in communication with the second port 1721 of the vent channel 170 through a gap means that a gap is defined between the top end of the capillary channel 124 and the second port 1721 of the vent channel 170, but the gap is relatively small, so that the liquid in the capillary channel 124 may enter the vent channel 170 under the capillary action. Specifically, the gap may be set to be less than 2 mm.
After the atomization assembly 100 is used for a period of time or placed for a period of time, a certain volume of liquid accumulates at a bottom portion of the atomization cavity 160. In this aspect, the capillary channel 124 is arranged in the atomization cavity 160, and the top end of the capillary channel 124 is in direct communication or in communication with the second port 1721 of the vent channel 170 through a gap, so that when air pressure changes in the liquid storage cavity 111 and needs to be exchanged, an accumulated liquid can climb upward along the capillary channel 124 to the second port 1721 of the vent channel 170 under the capillary action, and flow back into the liquid storage cavity 111 through the vent channel 170 under pushing of exchange air pressure, so that the accumulated liquid can be repeatedly used, thereby improving a utilization rate of the atomizing medium. In addition, it can be prevented that an air inlet channel 1271 is blocked due to excessive liquid accumulation.

The heating element 130 has a liquid inlet surface and an atomization surface that are oppositely arranged. The liquid inlet surface is perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of the atomization assembly 100, the liquid inlet surface faces the liquid feeding opening 112, and the atomization surface faces the atomization cavity 160. The liquid in the liquid storage tank 110 flows to the liquid inlet surface of the heating element 130 through the liquid feeding opening 112, enters a pore of the heating element 130, and is heated and atomized by the heating element 130. Finally, an aerosol is formed on the atomization surface of the heating element 130. The aerosol is carried out by the air in the atomization cavity 160 to be inhaled by a user. In this aspect, the liquid storage cavity 111 and the atomization cavity 160 are distributed along the longitudinal direction, and the heating element 130 is transversely arranged, so that the liquid in the liquid storage cavity 111 can enter the heating element 130 under the gravity of the liquid storage cavity to be atomized by the heating element 130, thereby promoting liquid fluidity, improving atomization efficiency, and reducing a transverse occupied space of the atomization assembly 100.

In an aspect, referring to
The inlet air is delivered to the preset height inside the atomization cavity 160 through the air inlet post 127, to reduce a problem that the condensate in the atomization cavity 160 flows into the air inlet channel 1271, thereby reducing a problem that the air inlet channel 1271 is blocked.
In an aspect, referring to
In an aspect, a longitudinal distance between a top end surface of the air inlet post 127 and the heating element 130 is greater than or equal to 0.5 mm, for example, may be 0.5 mm, 0.6 mm, 0.7 mm, 0.8 mm, 0.9 mm, 1.0 mm, 1.1 mm, 1.2 mm, 1.3 mm, 1.4 mm, 1.5 mm, 1.6 mm, 1.7 mm, 1.8 mm, 1.9 mm, or 2.0 mm. In this aspect, a longitudinal distance between the top end surface of the air inlet post 127 and the heating element 130 is limited, to prevent the air entering the air inlet post 127 from being rapidly spread because the distance between the air inlet post 127 and the heating element 130 is excessively small, causing the air to be condensed.
In an aspect, a dimension of the air inlet post 127 and a dimension of the heating element 130 along the transverse direction is greater than 0.5 mm, for example, may be 0.5 mm, 0.6 mm, 0.7 mm, 0.8 mm, 0.9 mm, 1.0 mm, 1.1 mm, 1.2 mm, 1.3 mm, 1.4 mm, 1.5 mm, 1.6 mm, 1.7 mm, 1.8 mm, 1.9 mm, or 2.0 mm.

In an aspect, referring to
When the user inhales the suction nozzle 200, because the start airway 116 is in communication with the main airway 115, the air in the start airway 116 can be simultaneously driven. The air flows through the start airway 116 to transmit the negative pressure to the airflow sensor. Under the effect of the negative pressure, the airflow sensor is enabled to operate. In this aspect, the start airway 116 and the main airway 115 are independently designed to be separated, and in communication at the top end, so that a problem that the main airway 115 and the start airway 116 are simultaneously blocked can be effectively avoided. In addition, even in a case in which the main airway 115 is blocked, because of an independent arrangement of the start airway 116, the airflow sensor can be successfully activated during inhalation. When the heating element 130 starts to heat, the viscosity of the atomizing medium can be reduced, and a blocked appliance can be drawn through.
In an aspect, referring to
In an example, the negative pressure groove 342 is a semi-closed structure, and a side of the seal sleeve 340 having the negative pressure groove 342 is abutted against a side wall of the atomization base 120, thereby ensuring sealing. It may be understood that in another aspect, the negative pressure groove 342 may alternatively be a negative pressure hole.
