Detailed Description

The present application will be described in further detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings by way of specific embodiments.

In an embodiment of the present application, as shown in fig. 1a and 1b, the aerosol generating device includes a main body 100 and a housing 200, wherein the housing 200 has a receiving space (not shown) in which the main body 100 is installed, and when the main body 100 or the housing 200 is subjected to an external force, the main body 100 and the housing 200 can move relatively.

The body 100 is for atomising an aerosol-forming substrate to produce an aerosol, the body 100 having an airflow passage (not shown) therein for the circulation of air and/or aerosol. In practical application, aerosol-forming substrates are stored in the main body 100, when the main body 100 enters a normal working state, the main body 100 atomizes the aerosol-forming substrates to generate aerosol, and the generated aerosol is released to the outside through the airflow channel, or external air enters the airflow channel to bring the generated aerosol out of the outside, so that a user can use the aerosol.

The body 100 comprises a proximal end 101, a distal end 102, the distal end 102 being arranged opposite the proximal end 101, and a surface (not shown) between the proximal end 101 and the distal end 102, the surface of the body 100 being hidden from view by the housing 200 in the closed state of the aerosol generating device. It will be understood by those skilled in the art that the proximal end 101 and the distal end 102 of the body 100 are used herein to refer to the two ends of the body 100, and are relative terms, and do not limit the specific meanings of the "proximal end" and the "distal end".

The housing 200 includes a first open end 203, the first open end 203 not covering the proximal end 101 of the body 100. When the main body 100 or the housing 200 is moved relatively by an external force, that is, the main body 100 is moved relatively to the housing 200 by an external force, or the housing 200 is moved relatively to the main body 100 by an external force, the proximal end 101 of the main body 100 and the first open end 203 of the housing 200 are displaced relatively to form a spatial region 303, so that the airflow channel is communicated with the outside.

When the proximal end 101 of the body 100 and the first open end 203 of the housing 200 form a spatial region 303, the aerosol generating device is opened from the closed state, and the airflow passage communicates with the outside through the spatial region 303.

Because in the open state of the aerosol generating device, namely in the use state, the air flow channel is communicated with the outside through the space region, and in the closed state (unused state), under the condition that the main body 100 or the shell 200 is not subjected to the action of external force and generates relative displacement relative to the shell 200 to form the space region 303, the air flow channel is not communicated with the outside, the aerosol generating device is not influenced by the difference of internal and external air pressure in the standing state or in the transportation and carrying processes, and the like, and the problems of the aerosol forming substrate leakage and the like of the aerosol generating device caused by the difference of the internal and external air pressure are effectively avoided.

In the present embodiment, the surface of the body 100 includes a first portion 103; the first portion 103 is connected to the proximal end 101 of the body 100 and is covered by the housing 200.

In a particular embodiment, the first portion 103 of the surface of the body 100 is provided with a vent 111, the vent 111 being in communication with the outlet of the airflow channel. The cross-sectional shape of the vent portion 111 may be semicircular, circular, elliptical, polygonal, or the like.

The space region 303 forms an air outlet of the aerosol generating device, and the ventilation portion 111 communicates with the outside through the air outlet.

In one case, when the main body 100 and the housing 200 are moved relative to each other, the first portion 103 exposes the first open end 203, and the peripheral space between the proximal end 101 of the main body 100 and the first open end 203 forms the aforementioned spatial region 303, i.e., the spatial region 303 may be an outer spatial region of the open state of the device.

Specifically, as shown in fig. 1b, when the main body 100 is moved relative to the housing 200 by an external force, or the housing 200 is moved relative to the main body 100 by an external force, such that the first portion 103 of the surface of the main body 100 is exposed out of the housing 200 from the first open end 203 of the housing 200, the spatial region 303 formed between the proximal end 101 of the main body 100 and the first open end 203 of the housing 200 is an external spatial region around the first portion 103 of the surface of the main body 100.

In other cases, not shown in the drawings, when the main body 100 and the housing 200 are relatively moved, the proximal end 101 of the main body 100 extends into the housing 200, and the difference between the proximal end 101 of the main body 100 and the first open end 203 forms the above-mentioned spatial region 303, i.e. the spatial region 303 may be an internal spatial region of the opened state of the device.

Specifically, when the main body 100 is moved relative to the housing 200 by an external force, or the housing 200 is moved relative to the main body 100 by an external force, such that the proximal end 101 of the main body 100 extends into the housing 200 from the first open end 203 of the housing 200, the spatial region 303 formed between the proximal end 101 of the main body 100 and the first open end 203 of the housing 200 is an internal hollow region formed by a drop height between the proximal end 101 of the main body 100 and the first open end 203 of the housing 200.

In this embodiment, the surface of the body 100 further includes a second portion 104, the second portion 104 being coupled to the distal end 102 of the body 100.

The first part 103 and the second part 104 on the surface of the main body 100 are integrally or separately arranged, when the main body 100 is acted by an external force, the first part 103 and the second part 104 on the surface of the main body 100 can be linked or not linked, that is, the first part 103 and the second part 104 on the surface of the main body 100 can do the same movement or do different movements.

The housing 200 also includes a second open end 204, the second open end 204 not covering the distal end 102 of the body 100. The first open end 203 and the second open end 204 are disposed opposite to each other, and are two ends of the housing 200. The first open end 203 and the second open end 204 are respectively engaged with the body 100.

As shown in fig. 1a and 1b, the second portion 104 of the surface of the main body 100 is exposed outside the housing 200, i.e., the housing 200 does not cover the second portion 104 of the surface of the main body 100. The second open end 204 is connected to the second portion 104 of the surface of the body 100 and does not cover the second portion 104 of the surface of the body 100.

When the main body 100 and the housing 200 are relatively moved so that the aforementioned space region 303 is formed between the proximal end 101 of the main body 100 and the first open end 203 of the housing 200, at least a part of the second portion 104 of the surface of the main body 100 is exposed outside the housing 200, or the second portion 104 of the surface of the main body 100 extends into the housing 200, that is, after the main body 100 or the housing 200 is moved by an external force, the second portion 104 of the surface of the main body 100 may be completely exposed outside the housing 200, or one part thereof may be exposed outside the housing 200, and the other part thereof extends into the housing 200, or may be completely extended into the housing 200.

For example, in the case that the distal end 102 of the main body 100 is pressed by an external force, so that the main body 100 moves longitudinally toward the first open end 203 of the housing 200, if the main body 100 moves longitudinally toward the first open end 203 of the housing 200 and then moves longitudinally toward the second open end 204 of the housing 200 to return to the original position, the second portion 104 of the surface of the main body 100 is exposed outside the housing 200; if the main body 100 moves longitudinally toward the first open end 203 of the housing 200, when a part of the second portion 104 of the surface of the main body 100 extends into the housing 200 and the other part is still exposed outside the housing 200, the movement is stopped, and then a part of the second portion 104 of the surface of the main body 100 is exposed outside the housing 200 and the other part extends into the housing 200; if the main body 100 is moved longitudinally towards the first open end 203 of the housing 200 until the second portion 104 of the surface of the main body 100 extends completely into the housing 200, then the second portion 104 of the surface of the main body 100 extends completely into the housing 200, i.e. the second portion 104 of the surface of the main body 100 is covered by the housing 200.

In the present embodiment, when the main body 100 and the housing 200 are relatively moved, so that a space region 303 is formed between the proximal end 101 of the main body 100 and the first open end 203 of the housing 200, an air inlet of the aerosol generating device is formed between the second open end 204 of the housing 200 and the main body 100, specifically, a gap is formed between the distal end 102 of the main body 100 or the second portion 104 of the surface of the main body 100 and the second open end 204 of the housing 200, so as to form an air inlet, and an inlet of the airflow channel is communicated with the outside through the air inlet.

In other modified embodiments, the housing 200 is provided with a through hole, when the proximal end 101 of the main body 100 and the first open end 203 of the housing 200 form the space region 303, the space region 303 forms an air outlet such that the outlet of the air flow channel communicates with the outside through the air outlet, and the through hole aligns with the inlet of the air flow channel to form an air inlet which communicates with the inlet of the air flow channel such that the inlet of the air flow channel communicates with the outside through the air inlet, thereby communicating the air flow channel with the outside.

Specifically, in one embodiment, as shown in fig. 1a, the first open end 203 of the housing 200 is a semi-open curved opening, such as a bevel opening, and the first portion 103 of the surface of the main body 100 is a bevel and covered by the housing 200.

Taking the external force acting on the main body 100 or the external force acting on the housing 200 including the external force rotation and pressing, for example, when the main body 100 moves relative to the housing 200 under the external force acting, when the distal end 102 of the main body 100 or the second portion 104 of the surface of the main body 100 rotates by a certain angle, for example, 180 degrees under the external force acting, the main body 100 makes a circumferential movement in the housing 200, specifically, the first portion 103 of the surface of the main body 100 makes a circumferential movement in the housing 200 and makes a circumferential displacement in the direction of the first open end 203 of the housing 200, so that the first portion 103 of the surface of the main body 100 rotates to the opening position of the first open end 203 of the housing 200, and at this time, the ventilation portion 111 on the first portion 103 of the surface of the main body 100 is exposed outside the housing 200 and is; at the same time, the second portion 104 of the surface of the main body 100 also moves circumferentially, the second portion 104 of the surface of the main body 100 is still exposed outside the housing 200, and the housing 200 does not cover the second portion 104 of the surface, as shown in fig. 1 b.

In another embodiment, not shown in fig. 1a and 1b, the first open end 203 of the housing 200 is a fully open transverse end opening or a curved opening, and the first portion 103 of the surface of the body 100 is covered by the housing 200.

Taking the main body 100 moving relative to the housing 200 under the action of an external force as an example, in a first case not shown in fig. 1b, when the distal end 102 of the main body 100 or the second portion 104 of the surface of the main body 100 is rotated by an external force by a certain angle, for example, 180 °, the main body 100 moves circumferentially in the housing 200, specifically, the first portion 103 of the surface of the main body 100 rotates circumferentially in the housing 200 and is longitudinally displaced toward the first open end 203 of the housing 200, so that the first portion 103 of the surface of the main body 100 extends out of the first open end 203, and the vent 111 on the first portion 103 of the surface of the main body 100 is exposed out of the housing 200 and is thus communicated with the outside; at the same time, the second portion 104 of the surface of the main body 100 also moves circumferentially, the second portion 104 of the surface of the main body 100 is still exposed outside the housing 200, and the housing 200 does not cover the second portion 104 of the surface.

In a second situation, not shown in fig. 1b, when the distal end 102 of the main body 100 is pressed by an external force, the main body 100 moves longitudinally in the housing 200, specifically, the first portion 103 of the surface of the main body 100 moves longitudinally in the axial direction of the housing 200 towards the first open end 203 of the housing 200, so that the first portion 103 of the surface of the main body 100 protrudes from the first open end 203 of the housing 200, and the vent part 111 is exposed outside the housing 200 and thus communicates with the outside; at the same time, the second portion 104 of the surface of the main body 100 is moved longitudinally in the axial direction of the housing 200 toward the first open end 203 of the housing 200, so that at least a partial area of the second portion 104 of the surface of the main body 100 extends into the housing 200, that is, the housing 200 covers at least a partial area of the second portion 104 of the surface, that is, the second portion 104 of the surface of the main body 100 extends into the housing 200 completely, and the distal end 102 of the main body 100 is just flush with the second open end 204 of the housing 200, that is, the distal end 102 of the main body 100 is also recessed into the housing 200, that is, a drop is formed between the distal end 102 of the main body 100 and the second open end 204 of the housing 200, that a partial area of the second portion 104 of the surface of the main body 100 is still exposed out of the housing 200, and that another partial area of the second portion 104 of the surface of the; alternatively, the second portion 104 of the surface of the main body 100 reciprocates relative to the housing 200, i.e., when the distal end 102 of the main body 100 is pressed by an external force, the second portion 104 of the surface of the main body 100 is ejected out of the housing 200 and returns to the original position after being inserted into the housing 200.

In a third situation, not shown in fig. 1b, when the proximal end 101 of the main body 100 is pressed by an external force, the main body 100 moves longitudinally in the housing 200, specifically, the first portion 103 of the surface of the main body 100 moves longitudinally in the axial direction of the housing 200 towards the second open end 204 of the housing 200, so that the first portion 103 of the surface of the main body 100 protrudes into the housing 200 from the first open end 203 of the housing 200 and falls to form an inner hollow area through which the venting part 111 communicates with the outside; alternatively, the first portion 103 of the surface of the main body 100 may protrude out of the first open end 203 of the housing 200 after reciprocating relative to the housing 200, as in the first and second cases where the first portion 103 of the surface of the main body 100 protrudes out of the first open end 203 of the housing 200; meanwhile, the second part 104 of the surface of the main body 100 is moved longitudinally in the axial direction of the housing 200 towards the second open end 204 of the housing 200, so that the second part 104 of the surface of the main body 100 extends out of the housing 200, or when the first part 103 of the surface of the main body 100 is moved longitudinally into the first open end 203 of the housing 200 or moved back and forth out of the first open end 203 of the housing 200, the second part 104 of the surface of the main body 100 is still in the original position, i.e. in this case, the first part 103 and the second part 104 of the surface of the main body 100 are not linked.

In this embodiment, the aerosol generating device is provided with an information display area, which is used for displaying one or more of identification information, aerosol-forming substrate residual amount information, environment information, operating state information, electric quantity information, self parameter information and the like, wherein the aerosol-forming substrate residual amount information can be transparently displayed or can be displayed in a data mode; the environment information comprises external environment information and/or internal environment information, the external environment information comprises external environment temperature, humidity and the like, the internal environment information comprises equipment internal temperature, component temperature and the like, and the self parameter information comprises equipment internal and external air pressure difference, component resistance and the like.

The information display area is used for displaying information, so that a user can know current state information when using the aerosol generating device, and the user can be helped to predict the use state, for example, when the remaining amount of the aerosol forming base material is too small, the user can predict that the aerosol forming base material can be added at the moment, or a container storing the aerosol forming base material is replaced, or equipment is stopped to use; when the difference in the air pressure inside and outside the apparatus is too large, the experience may be poor, and thus, the user may choose to stop using the apparatus.

Specifically, an information display area is provided at least one of the first portion 103 of the surface of the main body 100, the second portion 104 of the surface of the main body 100, and the housing 200.

In the case where the main body 100 is moved relative to the housing 200 by an external force or the housing 200 is moved relative to the main body 100 by an external force such that the first portion 103 of the surface of the main body 100 is exposed, information may be displayed through the information display region of the first portion 103 of the surface of the main body 100. In the case where the second portion 104 of the surface of the main body 100 is not covered by the housing 200, information may also be displayed through the information display area of the second portion 104 of the surface of the main body 100.

The housing 200 may display information through the information display region with or without the first and second portions 103 and 104 of the surface of the main body 100 exposed. The information display area of the housing 200 may be a partial area of the housing 200 or may be the entire area of the housing 200.

In a specific embodiment, the aerosol generating device is activated when the main body 100 and the housing 200 are relatively moved such that the aforementioned spatial region 303 is formed between the proximal end 101 of the main body 100 and the first open end 203 of the housing 200.

Specifically, the space region 303 formed between the proximal end 101 of the main body 100 and the first open end 203 of the housing 200 triggers the aerosol generating device to start, which may be only triggering the aerosol generating device to be powered on, that is, the main body 100 is powered on to enter a standby state, and the aerosol generating device enters a normal operating state when triggered by a normal operating signal again in the standby state, at which time the main body 100 operates normally, and atomizes the aerosol-forming substrate to generate aerosol.

For example, when the user operates the aerosol-generating device such that the body 100 moves relative to the housing 200 and a spatial region 303 is formed between the proximal end 101 of the body 100 and the first open end 203 of the housing 200, the aerosol-generating device is powered on, and when the user performs other operations (such as sucking, blowing, etc.) on the aerosol-generating device after the aerosol-generating device is powered on, the aerosol-generating device enters a normal operating state and atomizes the aerosol-forming substrate to generate the aerosol.

Alternatively, the formation of the spatial region 303 between the proximal end 101 of the main body 100 and the first open end 203 of the housing 200 triggers the aerosol generating device to start, which may be triggering the aerosol generating device to be powered on, and the aerosol generating device to enter a normal operation state, i.e. triggering the aerosol generating device to be powered on is the aerosol generating device to enter a normal operation state.

For example, when the aerosol-generating device is operated by a user such that a spatial region 303 is formed between the proximal end 101 of the body 100 and the first open end 203 of the housing 200, the aerosol-generating device is powered on, and when the aerosol-generating device is powered on, the aerosol-generating device atomizes the aerosol-forming substrate to generate the aerosol, that is, the aerosol-generating device generates the aerosol upon power-up without further operation by the user.

This application can trigger aerosol generating device self-starting through main part 100 or casing 200 receive external force effect relative motion to make aerosol generating device can set up mechanical type switch, also can not set up mechanical type switch. Under the condition that the aerosol generating device is not provided with a mechanical power switch, the aerosol generating device can be triggered to start through the relative movement of the main body 100 and the shell 200; under the condition that the aerosol generating device is provided with the mechanical power switch, the equipment can be triggered to start by pressing the power switch or the relative movement of the shell and the main body 100, so that the diversification of the equipment function implementation mode is realized, and the user experience can be improved. Moreover, the aerosol generating device is not provided with a mechanical power switch, the consistency of the appearance of the equipment is not influenced, the structure of the equipment is simplified, the size of the equipment is reduced, and the miniaturization of the equipment is realized.

In the present embodiment, the aerosol generating device is preferably provided with no mechanical switch on the housing 200, but an electronic switching element, such as a MOS transistor, a triode, a relay, or the like, is provided inside the aerosol generating device, and of course, a mechanical switch may be provided inside the aerosol generating device.

In a specific embodiment, the aerosol generating device of the present application further includes an activation indicator (not shown), when the aerosol generating device is activated, the activation indicator emits light, the light emitted by the activation indicator is transmitted to the outside, and the activation indicator can be disposed on the main body 100 or the housing 200 according to actual situations.

Specifically, the start indicator lamp may be disposed inside the main body 100, and when the main body 100 and the housing 200 move relatively to form the space region 303, light emitted from the start indicator lamp may sequentially pass through the airflow passage and the space region 303, or sequentially pass through a gap between the main body 100 and the housing 200 and the space region 303, or directly scatter to the outside through the gap between the main body 100 and the housing 200; or the corresponding area of the housing 200 is provided with a light-transmitting area through which the start indicator lamp scatters the light source to the outside.

Or, the start indicator lamp may be disposed at the proximal end 101 of the main body 100, the surface of the main body 100, or the inner surface of the housing 200, and when the main body 100 and the housing 200 move relatively to form the above space region 303, the light emitted by the start indicator lamp passes through the space region 303, or sequentially passes through the gap between the main body 100 and the housing 200, the space region 303, or directly scatters to the outside through the gap between the main body 100 and the housing 200; or the corresponding area of the housing 200 is provided with a light-transmitting area, and the start indicator light scatters the light source to the outside through the light-transmitting area.

Or, the start indicator lamp may be disposed on the housing 200, and the light of the start indicator lamp is directly emitted to the outside; the activation indicator may also be a partial or full area of the housing 200, with the housing 200 directly illuminated.

Through luminous instruction when starting pilot lamp aerosol generating device and starting to suggestion user equipment has started, through giving out the light source to the outside from inside simultaneously, perhaps through the luminous mode of casing 200 self, also make equipment display dynamic color, have cool and dazzle sense etc. reinforcing customer experience degree.

In one embodiment, as shown in fig. 3, the aerosol generating device of the present application further comprises a position detection module 401.

The position detection module 401 detects position information of the main body 100 or the housing 200 when the main body 100 or the housing 200 moves, and acquires current position information of the main body 100 or the housing 200. The position detection module 401 may detect the position information of the main body 100 or the housing 200 in real time, or may detect the position information when the main body 100 or the housing 200 starts to move or stops moving. The position detection module 401 stores the acquired current position information.

The position detection module 401 compares the current position information of the main body 100 or the housing 200 with the preset starting position information after acquiring the current position information of the main body 100 or the housing 200, and determines that the main body 100 or the housing 200 does not move through the preset starting position if the current position information of the main body 100 or the housing 200 is not matched with the preset starting position information, so as to feed back an abnormal signal, so that the aerosol generating device is not started.

Specifically, when the main body 100 and the housing 200 move relatively, for example, the main body 100 moves relative to the housing 200 so that a space region 303 is formed between the proximal end 101 of the main body 100 and the first open end 203 of the housing 200, if the current position information of the main body 100 moving along the housing 200 does not match the preset starting position information, that is, the main body 100 does not move through the preset starting position, and the space region 303 formed by the main body 100 moving relative to the housing 200 is not a region formed after the main body 100 moves through the preset starting position, the aerosol generating device is not started.

Therefore, the main body 100 is moved relative to the housing 200 in the case of non-user behavior, but when the main body 100 stops moving, and the main body 100 does not pass through the preset starting position, the aerosol generating device determines that the misoperation is caused at this time so that the main body 100 moves relative to the housing 200 and is not started, so that the problems that the aerosol generating device is automatically started due to the misoperation in the case of non-user behavior can be avoided, and the problems that resources are wasted and potential safety hazards exist due to the automatic starting of equipment due to the misoperation are avoided.

On the other hand, when the position detection module 401 detects that the position information of the main body 100 or the housing 200 in the movement process matches the preset initial position information and the preset starting position information in sequence, it determines that the main body 100 or the housing 200 moves through the preset initial position and the preset starting position in sequence, and feeds back the starting signal, so that the aerosol generating device is started. That is, in the moving process of the main body 100 or the housing 200, when the position detection module 401 detects that the position information of the main body 100 or the housing 200 matches with the preset initial position information and when a certain position information after the main body 100 or the housing 200 continues to move matches with the preset initial position information, it is determined that the main body 100 or the housing 200 moves successively through the preset initial position and the preset starting position, and it is further determined that the main body 100 or the housing 200 moves under the action of normal user behavior, so that the starting signal is fed back, and the aerosol generating device is started.

Specifically, taking the case that the main body 100 moves relative to the housing 200 under the action of an external force as an example, the position detection module 401 acquires the position information of the main body 100 during the movement of the main body 100, and compares the current position information of the main body 100 with the preset initial position information and the preset starting position information, respectively. If the position information of the main body 100 before matches the preset initial position information, determining that the main body 100 has undergone a preset initial position at this time; if the current position information of the main body 100 matches the preset starting position information, it is determined that the main body 100 has undergone the preset starting position at this time. Therefore, if the position detection module 401 detects that the position information of the main body 100 matches with the preset initial position information and detects that the position information of the main body 100 matches with the preset start position information in the movement process of the main body 100, it is determined that the main body 100 successively passes through the preset initial position and the preset start position in the movement process, and at this time, the position detection module 401 feeds back a start signal, so as to trigger the aerosol generation device to start.

Specifically, as shown in fig. 3, the position detection module 401 includes a sensor assembly 411, and a first microcontroller 412 electrically connected to the sensor assembly 411.

The sensor assembly 411 is used to detect the position information of the main body 100 or the housing 200 when the main body 100 or the housing 200 moves, and acquire the current position information of the main body 100 or the housing 200. The first microcontroller 412 is used for feeding back an activation signal or an abnormal signal according to the position information of the main body 100 or the housing 200, so that the aerosol generating device is activated or not activated.

The sensor assembly 411 may be one or more sensors for detecting whether the main body 100 and the housing 200 pass through a preset position during the relative movement, and the application does not limit the type of the sensor having the function. For example, the sensor assembly 411 may be a sensor, such as an acceleration sensor, for detecting a movement trace of the main body 100 in the housing 200, and the sensor assembly 411 includes at least one sensor. The first microcontroller 412 is disposed inside the main body 100, and the sensor assembly 411 may be disposed inside the main body 100, on the surface of the main body 100, or inside the housing 200, or in the case where the sensor assembly 411 includes a plurality of sensors, it may be disposed at three positions.

Specifically, taking the case that the main body 100 moves relative to the housing 200 under the action of an external force as an example, when the sensor assembly 411 does not detect that the current position information of the main body 100 matches the preset starting position information, that is, does not detect that the main body 100 moves through the preset starting position, during the movement of the main body 100 along the first direction of the housing 200, for example, the counterclockwise direction along the circumferential direction of the housing 200, the first microcontroller 412 determines that the main body 100 does not move through the preset starting position, so as to feed back an abnormal signal, so as to disable the aerosol generating device from being started.

The movement of the main body 100 without the preset starting position may be a movement that has passed through the preset initial position during the movement, but has not passed through the preset starting position, or a movement that starts from any position between the preset initial position and the preset starting position, and has not passed through the preset starting position.

When the sensor assembly 411 detects that the current position information of the main body 100 matches the preset starting position information and a certain position information of the main body 100 before the current position information matches the preset initial position information, the first microcontroller 412 determines that the main body 100 moves through the preset initial position and the preset starting position in sequence, so as to feed back a starting signal to trigger the aerosol generating device to start.

After the aerosol generating device is started, when the sensor assembly 411 detects a second direction along the housing 200 again at the main body 100, where the second direction is opposite to the first direction, for example, the main body 100 goes through a preset starting position in a clockwise direction along the circumference of the housing 200, i.e., leaves from the preset starting position, or goes through the preset starting position, a preset initial position in sequence, i.e., reaches the preset initial position from the preset starting position, the first microcontroller 412 feeds back a shutdown signal or a standby signal to trigger the aerosol generating device to switch from the starting state to the shutdown state or enter the standby state.

Alternatively, the sensor assembly 411 may be a sensor, such as a photoelectric sensor, for detecting that the main body 100 passes through a certain position point in the housing 200, and the sensor assembly 411 includes at least a first sensor and a second sensor spaced apart on the main body 100 and/or the housing 200, and the first sensor and the second sensor respectively detect whether the main body 100 moves through a preset initial position and a preset starting position.

Specifically, taking the first sensor and the second sensor as photoelectric sensors as an example, when the first sensor detects that the position information of the main body 100 moving relative to the housing 200 matches the preset initial position information, and the second sensor does not detect that the position information of the main body 100 moving relative to the housing 200 matches the preset starting position information, it indicates that the sensor assembly 411 detects that the main body 100 does not move through the preset starting position in the housing 200, and at this time, the first microcontroller 412 feeds back an abnormal signal to trigger the aerosol generating device not to start.

When the first sensor detects that the position information of the main body 100 moving relative to the housing 200 matches the preset initial position information and the second sensor detects that the position information of the main body 100 moving relative to the housing 200 matches the preset starting position information, it indicates that the sensor assembly 411 detects that the main body 100 moves in the housing 200 sequentially through the preset initial position and the preset starting position, and at this time, the first microcontroller 412 feeds back a starting signal to trigger the aerosol generating device to start.

When the second sensor detects that the main body 100 moves in the opposite direction relative to the housing 200 to pass through the preset initial position again, i.e., to leave from the preset initial position, the first microcontroller 412 feeds back a shutdown signal or a standby signal to trigger the aerosol generating apparatus to switch from the startup state to the shutdown state or the standby state. Alternatively, after the second sensor detects that the main body 100 moves in the opposite direction relative to the housing 200 to again pass through the preset starting position, and the first sensor also detects that the main body 100 moves in the opposite direction relative to the housing 200 to again pass through the preset initial position, that is, the main body 100 moves from the preset starting position to the preset initial position, the first microcontroller 412 feeds back a shutdown signal or a standby signal to trigger the aerosol generating device to switch from the starting state to the shutdown state or the standby state.

Further, in a specific embodiment, as shown in fig. 3, the aerosol generating device further comprises a time detection module 402.

The time detection module 402 is configured to detect a movement time required for the main body 100 or the housing 200 to move sequentially through a preset initial position and a preset starting position; when the movement time is detected to exceed the preset starting time (such as 1s), an abnormal signal is fed back so as to enable the aerosol generating device not to be started; when the movement time is detected to be less than the preset starting time, a starting signal is fed back to start the aerosol generating device.

Specifically, taking the case that the main body 100 moves relative to the housing 200 under the action of external force as an example, when the position detection module 401 detects that the main body 100 moves through a preset initial position, the time detection module 402 starts timing, or records a current time point, and when the position detection module 401 detects that the main body 100 moves through a preset starting position, the time detection module 402 stops timing, obtains a recorded duration, or the time detection module 402 records a current time point, and obtains a time interval of two time points, at this time, if the time detection module 402 detects that the recorded duration or time interval exceeds a preset starting time, it is determined that an abnormal phenomenon occurs, an abnormal signal is fed back, so that the aerosol generating device is not started; the aerosol generating device is self-activated only when the time detection module 402 detects that the recorded duration or time interval is less than a preset activation time.

It will be understood by those skilled in the art that in practical applications, when the normal user action causes the main body 100 to move relative to the housing 200, the consistency of the user action causes the main body 100 to move from the preset initial position to the preset starting position, and the movement time of the main body 100 is necessarily less than the preset starting time, then the relative movement of the main body 100 and the housing 200 triggers the aerosol generating device to self-start. In the case of non-user behavior, that is, in the case of misoperation, when the main body 100 is moved relative to the housing 200 by an external force of the non-user behavior, after the main body 100 starts to move from the initial position, the main body 100 stops moving without passing through the preset starting position due to the insufficient external force, and after the main body stops moving for a period of time, the main body 100 moves again due to the external force of the non-user behavior and then passes through the preset starting position, at this time, the position detection module 401 detects that the main body 100 moves through the preset starting position and determines as a condition that can trigger the start of the aerosol generating device, however, since the main body 100 moves through a plurality of times due to the misoperation of the non-user behavior and passes through the preset starting position, in this process, the movement time required for the main body 100 to reach the preset starting position from the preset initial position, that is, in the process for the main body 100 to reach the preset starting position from the preset initial position, the sum of the time of each movement of the main body 100 and the time of stopping the movement halfway necessarily exceeds the preset starting time, and thus, the time detection module 402 feeds back an abnormal signal, so that the aerosol generating device is not started.

It can be seen that, in the case of a malfunction, although the main body 100 moves relative to the housing 200 sequentially through the preset initial position and the preset activation position, when the time required for the main body 100 to reach the preset activation position from the preset initial position exceeds the preset activation time, the aerosol generating device is not activated, so that the malfunction can be further detected, and by the double malfunction detection of the position detection module 401 and the time detection module 402, the phenomena of resource waste, potential safety hazards and the like caused by the self-activation of the aerosol generating device due to the malfunction can be effectively avoided.

Further, the time detection module 402 detects the operating time of the aerosol generating device after the aerosol generating device is started. When detecting that the current working time of the aerosol generating device exceeds a preset working time (e.g. 10s), the time detecting module 402 feeds back a shutdown signal or a standby signal, so that the aerosol generating device is shut down or enters a standby state.

Therefore, when the user uses the equipment for too long time, the equipment can be protected, and the situation that the user excessively uses the functions provided by the equipment and is not beneficial to health and the like can be avoided; the problems of resource waste, potential safety hazards and the like caused by overlong starting time of the aerosol generating device due to misoperation can be solved.

Further, the time detection module 402 detects a standby time of the aerosol-generating device while the aerosol-generating device is in a standby state. When detecting that the current standby time of the aerosol generating device exceeds a preset standby time (e.g., 2min), the time detecting module 402 feeds back a shutdown signal to shutdown the aerosol generating device.

Therefore, the equipment can automatically enter a shutdown state under the condition of long-time standby without starting the equipment by a user, can be automatically shut down under the conditions that the user forgets to shut down the equipment or the equipment is in long-time standby due to misoperation, saves resources, and can also avoid potential safety hazards.

Specifically, as shown in fig. 3, the time detection module 402 includes a timer 413, and a second microcontroller 414 electrically connected to the timer 413. The timer 413 is configured to record a movement time required for the main body 100 or the housing 200 to move through a preset initial position and a preset starting position in sequence, and the second microcontroller 414 feeds back a starting signal or an abnormal signal according to the movement time, so that the aerosol generating device is started or not started. After the aerosol generating device is started, the timer 413 records the operating time of the aerosol generating device, and the second microcontroller 414 controls the aerosol generating device to maintain a normal operating state or controls the aerosol generating device to be turned off or enter a standby state according to the operating time. After the aerosol generating device is in the standby state, the timer 413 records the standby time of the aerosol generating device, and the second microcontroller 414 controls the aerosol generating device to maintain the standby state or switch to the off state according to the standby time.

In the embodiment, taking the main body 100 moving relative to the housing 200 under the action of an external force as an example, when the timer 413 records that the movement time required for the main body 100 to move sequentially through the preset initial position and the preset starting position exceeds the preset starting time, the second microcontroller 414 feeds back an abnormal signal to make the aerosol generating device not start; when the movement time recorded by the timer 413 is less than the preset activation time, the second microcontroller 414 feeds back an activation signal to activate the aerosol generating device.

After the aerosol generating device is started, the working time of the aerosol generating device recorded by the timer 413 is recorded, and when the second microcontroller 414 detects that the working time recorded by the timer 413 exceeds the preset working time, a shutdown signal or a standby signal is fed back, so that the aerosol generating device is switched from a normal working state to a shutdown state or a standby state; when the working time recorded by the timer 413 is less than the preset working time, the second microcontroller 414 still feeds back the start signal, so that the aerosol generating device maintains a normal working state.

When the aerosol generating device is in a standby state, the timer 413 records the standby time of the aerosol generating device, and the second microcontroller 414 feeds back a shutdown signal when detecting that the standby time recorded by the timer 413 exceeds the preset standby time, so that the aerosol generating device is switched from the standby state or the shutdown state, and when the current standby time of the aerosol generating device is less than the preset standby time, the aerosol generating device is still in the standby state. When the aerosol generating device is in a standby state, if the aerosol generating device receives a starting trigger, the aerosol generating device is started from the standby state.

It will be appreciated by those skilled in the art that the above-mentioned predetermined initial position and predetermined start position are two different positions in succession for the start of movement of the aerosol generating device from the closed state, and for the start of movement of the aerosol generating device from the open state, the predetermined start position and the predetermined initial position are two different positions in succession, respectively. The preset initial position and the preset starting position may be a starting position and an ending position of the movement of the main body 100 or the housing 200, or two different positions between the starting position and the ending position of the movement of the main body 100 or the housing 200. The preset initial position can be the work from the preset initial position, or the work passes through the preset initial position in the movement process, or the work reaches the preset initial position when the movement is stopped; similarly, the preset starting position may be a position where the work is started from the preset starting position, or a position where the work passes through the preset starting position during the movement, or a position where the work reaches the preset starting position when the movement is stopped.

In a specific embodiment, the main body 100 may be provided with a charging interface, and the corresponding position on the housing 200 is provided with an opening that does not cover the charging interface, for example, the distal end 102 of the main body 100 is provided with an electrical interface, the second open end 204 of the housing 200 does not cover the charging interface, and the edge of the opening of the second open end 204 is engaged with the charging interface.

Of course, in other embodiments, the charging interface may be disposed on the housing 200.

The charging interface is used for connecting an external power supply to charge the aerosol generating device. The interface that should charge is the interface that charges or the interface that charges of wireless, and the interface that charges of wireless for example can be that the interface that charges is inhaled to contact magnetism or the interface that charges of wireless induction, and the interface that charges of wired for example can be that micro USB charges the interface or Type-C charges the interface.

In a particular embodiment, to facilitate use and placement of the aerosol generating device, the aerosol generating device is provided with at least one of a frosted layer, a non-slip portion, a polygonal corner, a flush top end, and a flush bottom end. For example, the outer surface of the housing 200 is provided with a frosted layer, the outer surface of the housing 200 is provided with anti-slip parts such as raised lines and raised points, and the housing 200 is provided with a polygonal shape, so that the aerosol generating device has an anti-slip effect during use and an anti-rolling effect when the aerosol generating device is parked, and in addition, the device has an attractive appearance and is tactile. Furthermore, if the aerosol generating device is provided with a top end and/or a bottom end which are flush, the aerosol generating device can be not only horizontally stopped, but also vertically stopped without falling down.

In a specific embodiment, the casing 200 is sleeved with a soft sheath to protect the device, for example, the impact force can be reduced when the device falls down, and in addition, the touch feeling can be increased to improve the user experience.

In a specific embodiment, a temperature-sensitive layer is disposed outside the casing 200, or the casing 200 is a temperature-sensitive casing, and when the temperature inside the device changes in a normal working state of the device, the casing 200 displays different colors along with the temperature change, or each section displays different colors or gradient colors.

In one embodiment, a light-sensitive layer is disposed outside the housing 200, or the housing 200 is a light-sensitive shell, and the housing 200 is self-luminous when in a low light environment.

In a further embodiment of the present application, as shown in fig. 2a to 2c, the housing 200 covers the second portion 104 of the surface, and the second open end 204 is connected to the distal end 102 of the body 100 and does not cover the distal end 102 of the body 100.

When the main body 100 and the housing 200 are relatively moved so that the proximal end 101 of the main body 100 falls with the first open end 203 of the housing 200 to form a spatial region 303, the second portion 104 of the surface of the main body 100 is exposed out of the housing 200, or the distal end 102 of the main body 100 protrudes into the housing 200.

Specifically, as shown in fig. 2a, in one embodiment, the first opening end 203 of the housing 200 is a fully open transverse end opening, or may be a curved opening, and the first portion 103 of the surface of the main body 100 is covered by the housing 200.

Taking the main body 100 moving relative to the housing 200 under the action of an external force as an example, in the first case, when the distal end 102 of the main body 100 is pressed by the external force, the main body 100 moves longitudinally in the housing 200, specifically, the first portion 103 of the surface of the main body 100 moves longitudinally in the axial direction of the housing 200 towards the first open end 203 of the housing 200, so that the first portion 103 of the surface of the main body 100 protrudes from the first open end 203 of the housing 200, and the vent part 111 is exposed outside the housing 200 and is thereby communicated with the atmosphere, as shown in fig. 2b and 2 c; simultaneously, the second portion 104 of the surface of the main body 100 is moved longitudinally in the axial direction of the housing 200 towards the first open end 203 of the housing 200, so that the distal end 102 of the main body 100 extends into the housing 200 to form an inner concave area 304, and the inner concave area 304 has a gap between the interior of the housing 200 and the distal end 102 of the main body 100, thereby forming an air inlet, as shown in fig. 2 c; alternatively, and not shown in fig. 2c, the second portion 104 of the surface of the body 100 is reciprocated such that the distal end 102 of the body 100 is retracted after extending into the housing 200.

In a second situation, not shown in fig. 2b and 2c, when the distal end 102 of the main body 100 is rotated by an external force by a certain angle, for example, 180 °, the main body 100 moves circumferentially in the housing 200, specifically, the first portion 103 of the surface of the main body 100 moves circumferentially in the housing 200 and is displaced longitudinally in the direction of the first open end 203 of the housing 200, so that the first portion 103 of the surface of the main body 100 extends out of the first open end 203, and the ventilation portion 111 on the first portion 103 of the surface of the main body 100 is exposed out of the housing 200 and is thus communicated with the outside; at the same time, the second portion 104 of the surface of the body 100 is also moved circumferentially, with the distal end 102 of the body 100 in place or extending into the housing 200, i.e., the housing 200 still covers the second portion 104 of the surface.

In a third case, not shown in fig. 2b and 2c, when the proximal end 101 of the main body 100 is pressed by an external force, the main body 100 moves longitudinally in the housing 200, specifically, the first portion 103 of the surface of the main body 100 moves longitudinally in the axial direction of the housing 200 toward the second open end 204 of the housing 200, so that the first portion 103 of the surface of the main body 100 extends into the housing 200 from the first open end 203 of the housing 200 and forms an inner hollow area through which the vent 111 communicates with the outside, and at the same time, the second portion 104 of the surface of the main body 100 moves longitudinally in the axial direction of the housing 200 toward the second open end 204 of the housing 200, so that the second portion 104 of the surface of the main body 100 extends out of the housing 200. Alternatively, the first portion 103 of the surface of the main body 100 may protrude out of the first open end 203 of the housing 200 after reciprocating relative to the housing 200, as in the first and second cases where the first portion 103 of the surface of the main body 100 protrudes out of the first open end 203 of the housing 200; at the same time, the distal end 102 of the body 100 and the second portion 104 of the surface of the body 100 remain in their original positions, i.e., the first portion 103 and the second portion 104 of the surface of the body 100 do not interlock.

It should be understood by those skilled in the art that the spatial region 303, the first portion 103 and the second portion 104 of the surface of the main body 100 are only defined and indicated in the present application, and as for the spatial region 303, the first portion 103 and the second portion 104 of the surface of the main body 100 involved in various applied force situations, the spatial region 303 in various situations may have the same or different area and shape; similarly, the first portions 103 in each case may be equal in area or unequal in size, and may be equal or different in shape; similarly, the second portions 104 in various situations may have the same or different areas and shapes, and are not limited herein.

The present application has been described with reference to specific examples, which are provided only to aid understanding of the present application and are not intended to limit the present application. For a person skilled in the art to which the application pertains, several simple deductions, modifications or substitutions may be made according to the idea of the application.
