It is understood that in other embodiments not shown, there may be only one mounting hole 311 and correspondingly only one pin 331, and in this case, one pin 331 of the heating element 33 is bent after passing through the mounting hole 311, and the heating element 33 can also be fixed.

In one embodiment, not shown, the lower end of the connection pipe 121 is pre-sealed with a sealing member (not shown). That is, the liquid smoke in the liquid storage assembly 10 is isolated from the outside before the liquid storage assembly 10 and the atomizing assembly 30 are completely installed. The sealing element can be aluminum foil or other similar metal films, and can also be plastic films and the like. After the liquid storage assembly 10 is mounted on the atomizing assembly 30, a puncturing member (not shown) disposed on the atomizing base 31 punctures the sealing member, so that the sealing function is broken, and the liquid smoke in the liquid storage assembly 10 is introduced into the atomizing assembly 30, thereby facilitating continuous heating and atomizing of the liquid smoke after the atomizing assembly 30 is powered on. After using up the tobacco juice in the stock solution subassembly 10, directly with stock solution subassembly 10 from atomizing subassembly 30 remove can, and need not wholly abandon, reduced user's use cost.
