When the user draws, airflow within the sensing airway 210 flows out and into the interior of the aerosolization device 300 through the air inlet 310. At this time, the sensing area of the air passage switch senses the negative pressure generated by the airflow flowing out in the sensing air passage 210, triggers the pneumatic switch 100, and transmits a signal to the power supply device 200, so as to control the heating element in the atomizing device 300 to generate heat 320 to atomize the pre-stored smoke liquid, so that the smoke liquid generates smoke for the user to suck.
Referring to fig. 1 to 6, the pneumatic switch 100 includes a main body 10, the main body 10 is provided with a sensing area, and the sensing area is triggered when in a negative pressure state, and is characterized in that the pneumatic switch 100 further includes a flexible protective film 50, the protective film 50 is mounted on the main body 10, and at least an outer surface of the main body 10 provided with the sensing area is hermetically covered, so that a first cavity 40 is defined between the protective film 50 and a surface of the main body 10 provided with the sensing area; the protective film 50 deforms away from the main body 10 under the action of external suction force, so that part of the airflow in the first cavity 40 flows into a space generated by deformation of the protective film 50.
The utility model discloses technical scheme's pneumatic switch 100, this technical scheme need not to cover the outer dustproof cloth of induction zone in traditional pneumatic switch 100, prevents effectively that tobacco juice and comdenstion water from being adsorbed by dustproof cloth and leading to the phenomenon production that is difficult to the clearance. Simultaneously, through being equipped with protecting film 50 to airtight shroud pneumatic switch 100 main part 10 is equipped with the induction zone, effectively prevents in long-term use, and tobacco juice and comdenstion water hydrops are in the induction zone, and follow the induction zone infiltrates inside pneumatic switch 100, produces the phenomenon of damage to triggering the subassembly 30. Meanwhile, the protective film 50 is flexible and encloses a first cavity 40 with one side of the main body 10 of the pneumatic switch 100, which is provided with a sensing area, so that when a user sucks, attraction is generated on the protective film 50, and the protective film 50 deviates from the main body 10 of the pneumatic switch 100 and deforms. And the space generated between the deformed pellicle 50 and the main body 10 increases. The protective film 50 covers the sensing area in a sealing manner, so that the airflow value in the first cavity 40 is constant, and when the airflow value is constant, the volume of the first cavity 40 is increased, so that negative pressure is generated to trigger the sensing area, and the electronic cigarette can work normally.
Specifically, as shown in fig. 1 or fig. 3, in the embodiment of the present invention, the main body 10 is provided with an inner cavity 13 and an air outlet 111, and the main body 10 is provided with a trigger assembly 30 in the inner cavity 13. The air outlet 111 is communicated with the inner cavity 13 and the outside, so that the air flow in the inner cavity 13 can flow out along the air outlet 111, and the air outlet 111 forms the sensing region on the surface of the main body 10. The protective film 50 is hermetically covered on the surface of the main body 10 where the air outlet 111 is formed. When the user sucks, negative pressure is formed when the air flow in the sensing airway 210 is drawn out, so that the protection film 50 is deformed away from the main body 10 under the suction force. At this time, the volume of the first cavity 40 enclosed between the protective film 50 and the main body 10 is increased, and the protective film 50 and the main body 10 are hermetically connected, so that the air flow rate in the first cavity 40 and the inner cavity 13 is constant, and when the volume of the first cavity 40 is increased, the air flow in the inner cavity 13 is supplemented into the aperture generated after the deformation of the first cavity 40, so that the air pressure value is reduced. Thereby putting the trigger assembly 30 in the inner cavity 13 in a negative pressure state, and triggering the trigger assembly 30.
Specifically, as shown in fig. 1 to 4, in the embodiment of the present invention, the triggering component 30 includes a conductive sheet 31, a floating diaphragm 32 and a circuit board 33, which are arranged in the inner cavity 13 in sequence from being close to the air outlet 111 to being far away from the air outlet 111, the conductive sheet 31 is electrically connected to the circuit board 33, and is provided with at least one air passing hole 311 communicated with the air outlet 111. When a user sucks, the airflow in the inner cavity 13 is supplemented into the first cavity 40 through the air passing holes 311 and the air outlet holes 111, and meanwhile, the floating diaphragm 32 swings towards the conducting strip 31 under the action of the airflow, so that part of the floating diaphragm is contacted with or separated from the conducting strip 31, and the conducting strip 31 generates an electric signal and transmits the electric signal to the circuit board 33.
Specifically, as shown in fig. 1 to fig. 3, in the embodiment of the present invention, the principle of the electric signal generation may be a frictional static charge, for example, the floating diaphragm 32 is an insulating diaphragm, and vibrates under the action of the air flow to generate a static charge by friction between the conductive sheets 31, and then is transmitted to the circuit board 33 through the conductive sheets 31. Meanwhile, the distance generated by the electrical signal may also be an electrical circuit, for example, the floating diaphragm 32 is a thin film made of an electrically conductive material, the main body 10 further includes a conductive ring 35 and an insulating ring 34, the conductive ring 35 is disposed between the floating diaphragm 32 and the circuit board 33 and electrically connects the floating diaphragm 32 and the circuit board 33, and the insulating ring 34 is disposed between the floating diaphragm 32 and the conductive plate 31 to separate the two. When a user sucks, the floating membrane 32 deforms under the action of the air flow to be in contact with the conductive sheet 31 from the hollow part in the middle of the insulating ring 34, so that the conductive sheet 31 and the conductive ring 35 are in circuit conduction, and an electric signal is generated.
Further, as shown in fig. 1 or fig. 4, in the embodiment of the present invention, in order to facilitate the floating diaphragm 32 to vibrate, an air supply hole 331 communicating with the outside may be disposed on one side of the floating diaphragm 32 facing the circuit board 33, and when the floating diaphragm 32 deflects towards the conducting strip 31 under a negative pressure state, the outside air flow may enter the main body 10 through the air supply hole 331, so as to facilitate the deformation or deflection vibration of the floating diaphragm 32. Of course, the air supply hole 331 is not limited to be formed in the circuit board 33, for example, in the second peripheral surface 12, so as to supply air to the inner cavity 13 of the main body 10 of the floating diaphragm 32 away from the conductive plate 31.
Further, as shown in fig. 1 to 4, in the embodiment of the present invention, in order to prevent the protective film 50 from being tightly attached to the main body 10, the protective film 50 is not deformed during suction, and the phenomenon of insensitivity is triggered. In this embodiment, a supporting member 51 is further disposed between the protective film 50 and the main body 10, and when the protective film 50 is mounted on the main body 10, two sides of the supporting member 51 respectively abut against the outer surface of the main body 10 and the surface of the protective film 50 facing the main body 10, so that the protective film 50 and the main body 10 are spaced apart from each other, and the phenomenon that the trigger assembly 30 cannot be triggered due to the fact that the protective film 50 is not deformed during suction due to certain friction or electrostatic adsorption force between the protective film 50 and the main body 10 is avoided. Meanwhile, the protective film 50 and the first cavity 40 formed between the main body 10 have a certain initial volume, and further have a certain amount of gas storage, so that the protective film 50 is more easily deformed, and the influence of temperature on air pressure is weakened.
Specifically, the triggering component 30 is a triggering component with a model number S087, and a micro-pressure sensing component with a triggering precision of-400 pa is adopted. In order to prevent the phenomenon of false triggering caused by air pressure change due to temperature, in this embodiment, the circuit board 33 is programmed, the conductive plate 31 and the floating diaphragm 32 are used as sampling ends, data collection is performed on the potentials or the attached electric charges carried by the conductive plate 31 and the floating diaphragm at certain intervals, and the data collection is defined as a standard air pressure value. Thereby effectively preventing the phenomenon that the air flow expands due to the ambient temperature to generate false triggering.
Furthermore, the supporting member 51 is ring-shaped, and the area enclosed by the inner annular surface of the supporting member 51 is greater than or equal to the area of the opening of the air outlet 111, so that when the protection film 50 is installed on the main body 10, the air outlet 111 is accommodated in the area enclosed by the inner annular surface of the supporting member 51, and a part of the protection film 50 not covered by the supporting member 51 is erected outside the air outlet 111 to form the elastic deformation region 52. Here, the area enclosed by the inner annular surface of the support 51 is greater than or equal to the area of the air outlet opening, so as to ensure that the support 51 and the protective film 50 completely cover the air outlet hole 111 when the protective film 50 is mounted on the main body 10.
Specifically, to ensure the triggering accuracy, the user may adjust the flexibility of the protective film 50 to increase the deformation amount thereof, or the area of the protective film 50 deformed is designed to be large, thereby increasing the size of the space generated after the deformation thereof. In this embodiment, the elastic deformation region 52 of the protection film 50 is a region surrounded by the inner annular surface of the support 51, so that the triggering accuracy is improved by designing the inner annular surface of the support 51 to be larger. Further, when the distance between the outer annular surface and the inner annular surface of the supporting element 51 is constant, the larger the outer annular surface is, the largest area is surrounded by the inner annular surface, in this embodiment, the outer annular surface is adapted to the outer edge of the main body 10, so as to increase the space generated after the deformation of the protection film 50 as much as possible. Meanwhile, the area enclosed by the circle is the largest under the same diameter, so that the inner annular surfaces of the induction zone and the support member 51 are designed to be circular.
Specifically, the main body 10 is cylindrical, the diameter of the cross section of the main body is 6mm, and the air outlet 111 is formed in the first surface 11 of the main body 10 to form the sensing region. The diameter interval of the air outlet 111 is 2mm-3mm, and the opening area of the air outlet is one third to one half of the area of the first surface 11, so that when the protective film 50 deforms under the action of suction force, air flow in the inner cavity 13 can rapidly flow into the first cavity 40 from the air outlet 111, and negative pressure is generated to trigger the trigger assembly 30.
Specifically, the diameter of the air outlet 111 is 2.5mm, and at this time, the distance between the main body 10 and the single edge of the outer edge of the air outlet 111 is 1.75mm, so as to limit the trigger component 30 in the inner cavity 13 and prevent the internal trigger component 30 from crushing the first surface 11 when the suction force is large.
Specifically, in this embodiment, the protective film 50 and the supporting member 51 are made of a flexible material, such as silicone, and are integrally formed, which is effective for manufacturing and production. The processing method can be realized by cutting a protective film 50 base layer which is matched with or larger than the size of the first surface 11 of the main body 10, then forming a groove with the diameter larger than or equal to that of the air outlet hole 111 at the position corresponding to the air outlet hole 111, wherein the bottom wall of the groove is thinner and is easy to deform to form an elastic deformation area 52, and the outer edge of the groove is thicker to form a supporting piece 51.
Further, in order to prevent the elastic deformation region 52 from being located on the end surface of the supporting member 51, a phenomenon that the elastic deformation region is easily scratched during the use and cleaning process of the user may occur. During production, grooves can be simultaneously formed in two sides of the base layer of the protective film 50, so that the elastic deformation region 52 is formed in the middle of the inner annular surface of the support member 51, and has a certain height difference with the outer end surface of the support member 51, and the occurrence of a scratch phenomenon is prevented.
Further, the sensing area is not completely covered when the protection film 50 is mounted on the main body 10. In this embodiment, the diameter of the inner annular surface of the supporting member 51 is set to 2mm-6mm to ensure that the enclosed area of the inner annular surface of the supporting member 51 is greater than or equal to the area of the opening of the air outlet 111, so that when the protection film 50 is mounted on the main body 10, the air outlet 111 is hermetically surrounded by the inner annular surface of the supporting member 51. The phenomenon that the external air flow enters the first chamber 40 from the gap between the support 51 and the body 10 to cause the non-triggering is prevented.
Furthermore, the thickness of the elastic deformation area 52 is 0.03mm to 0.5mm, and the thickness is selected mainly according to the elastic deformation capability of the product. Meanwhile, depending on the area of the elastic deformation region 52, it can be understood that when the diameter of the elastic deformation region 52, i.e. the inner annular surface of the supporting member 51, is small, such as 2-3mm, a larger deformation is required to occur if the triggering element 30 is triggered, and therefore, the thickness of the elastic deformation region 52 is selected to be a smaller size, such as 0.03mm-0.09mm, and the specific thickness value is also connected with the connecting strength of the material selected for the protecting member, so as to ensure that the elastic deformation region is not prone to rupture when the elastic deformation region 52 is deformed greatly. When the diameter of the elastic deformation area 52, i.e. the inner annular surface of the supporting member 51, is larger, e.g. 6mm, at this time, the elastic deformation area 52 only needs to generate a smaller amplitude value to trigger the triggering component 30, and therefore, a thicker protective film 50, e.g. a protective film 50 with a thickness of 0.2mm to 0.5mm, can be selected.

If the diameter of the elastic deformation area is 3.6mm, 4mm and the like, and at the moment, the thickness value of the elastic deformation area 52 is 0.1mm or 0.12mm, so that the connection strength is high while the elastic deformation force is good, and the elastic deformation area is not easy to break. For another example, an adhesive layer 512 may be disposed on a side of the supporting member 51 away from the protective film 50, and when the protective film 50 is mounted on the main body 10, the side of the protective film 50 where the supporting member 51 is disposed is pressed against the outer surface of the main body 10, so that the supporting member 51 is hermetically bonded to the outer surface of the main body 10, thereby completing the mounting.
