It is noted that references to "a", "an", and "the" modifications in this disclosure are intended to be illustrative rather than limiting, and that those skilled in the art will recognize that "one or more" may be used unless the context clearly dictates otherwise.

The present disclosure will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings in conjunction with embodiments.

Referring to fig. 1, a schematic structural view of some embodiments of the atomizer assembly provided by the present disclosure is shown. As shown in fig. 1, the atomizer assembly comprises a body 1, a through-hole arrangement 2 and a first hole arrangement (not shown in the figure).

In some embodiments, the through-hole structure of the atomizer assembly extends through the body. As shown in fig. 1, the through-hole structure 2 penetrates the body 1. The shape of the main body 1 may be various structures, and the structure having the transition section is not unique in which the sizes of both upper and lower (in the direction of fig. 1) ends of the main body 1 shown in fig. 1 are different. The structure of the main body 1 can be adjusted by those skilled in the art according to actual needs. For example, a cylinder, a cuboid. The through-hole structure 2 penetrates the inside of the body to form an internal passage. The through hole structure 2 can be a cylinder, a cuboid, an irregular structure and the like.

In some embodiments, the first aperture arrangement is provided to the body. As shown in fig. 1, a plurality of first hole structures may be provided to the body 1. The first hole structure is used for transferring the liquid to be atomized to the inner wall of the through hole structure 2 and absorbing the condensate generated in the gas flowing process. Specifically, since a plurality of first hole structures are provided to the main body 1, the above-described first hole structures achieve the same effects as the oil inlet. The liquid to be atomized can enter the inner wall of the through hole structure through the first hole structure. Further, the structure of the atomizer assembly is simplified. In addition, in the flowing process of the atomizing gas in the through hole structure 2, the atomizing gas can form condensate when being cooled. The first pore structure is characterized by a small pore diameter, and therefore, the first pore structure enables the condensate to flow into the first pore structure. In this way, the condensate is prevented from flowing with the atomizing gas. Thereby improving the quality of the atomizing gas. Specifically, the above-described body 1 may be made of a material having a porous structure. The aperture structure forms a first aperture structure.

In some alternative implementations of some embodiments, the body 1 and the via structure 2 may be integrally made of a ceramic material. The material for making the main body 1 may include, but is not limited to, a porous ceramic material formed by using alumina, zirconia, silica, silicon carbide, and purple sand as a main body, a porous ceramic material formed by combining two or more kinds of the above materials, and the like. The person skilled in the art can make adjustments according to the actual need. It should be noted that the main body 1 and the through hole structure 2 are integrally formed, thereby reducing the problems of processing steps, assembly and the like. Saves the processing cost and solves the problems of complex assembly and the like.

In some alternative implementations of some embodiments, the atomizer assembly may further comprise a second orifice structure (not shown in the figures). Specifically, by immersing or spraying a part of the first pore structure, the pore diameter of the first pore structure of the treated part is reduced, and the second pore structure is formed. The second hole structure is used for preventing the liquid to be atomized from entering the through hole structure and absorbing condensate generated in the flowing process of the gas. Specifically, the first pore structure is immersed in a polymer material, which can be attached to the first pore structure. In this way, the second pore structure has a smaller pore size than the first pore structure. In addition, the second pore structure may be formed by spraying a polymer material. The polymer material may include, but is not limited to, at least one of the following: high temperature resistant polyurethane, polyvinyl alcohol and silica gel. Because the second pore structure has the characteristic of smaller pore diameter, the second pore structure can prevent the liquid to be atomized with certain viscosity from entering the through hole structure. Likewise, when the atomizing gas flows in the above-mentioned through-hole structure 2, condensate produced upon cooling can also be absorbed by the second hole structure. Therefore, the second aperture structure can further prevent the condensate from flowing along with the atomizing gas. Thereby improving the quality of the atomizing gas. It should be noted that the ranges of the sections where the first hole structure and the second hole structure are located are not exclusive. One skilled in the art can adjust the atomization capability of the atomizer assembly and the condensate generation of the atomized gas. Thereby realizing the functions that the first pore structure transmits the liquid to be atomized and the second pore structure absorbs the condensate.

In some alternative implementations of some embodiments, the through-hole structure may include an air passage and an atomizing chamber. Next, description will be given with reference to fig. 2. Fig. 2 is a schematic structural diagram of some embodiments of an atomizer assembly according to the present disclosure. As shown in fig. 2, the air passage 21 communicates with the atomizing chamber 22 to form the above-described through-hole structure 2. Specifically, the size of nebulization chamber 22 may be larger than the size of air channel 21. The air passage 21 is located above the atomizing chamber 22 (in the direction of fig. 2). The section where the second hole structure is located above the section where the first hole structure is located. Those skilled in the art will appreciate that the configuration of air passage 21 and nebulization chamber 22 shown in fig. 2 is merely exemplary, and that the configuration of air passage 21 and nebulization chamber 22 may be varied by the skilled person as desired. In the operating state, the atomized gas can flow upward through the air passage 21. In particular, the above-mentioned first hole structure enables the liquid to be atomized to be delivered into this atomizing chamber 22. The second aperture arrangement described above prevents liquid to be atomised from entering the air duct 21. In addition, the second hole structure can absorb condensate generated by the atomized gas in the flowing process of the air duct 21.

In some optional implementations of some embodiments, the atomizer assembly further comprises a heat-generating body, and the heat-generating body is disposed on an inner surface of the atomizing chamber by means of sintering or printing. The heating element may be a resistor paste. The resistance paste can form a film structure conductive resistance on the inner surface of the atomization cavity. The membrane structure conductive resistor is connected to an external power source. In this way, in the operating state, an external power supply supplies power to the conductive film structure. The membrane structure is electrified and generates heat, so that the liquid to be atomized is gasified, and the atomization work is completed. It should be understood by those skilled in the art that although the above description has been made with the resistor paste as the material for making the conductive resistor of the film structure. This is not exclusive and any material that performs the above function may be substituted. For example, heating a palladium-silver material, etc. Such variations are not beyond the scope of the present disclosure.

In some optional implementations of some embodiments, the heat-generating body may be further disposed on the inner wall of the atomizing chamber by embedding. For example, one or more annular grooves may be provided in the inner wall of the atomising chamber. In this way, the heating wire can be accommodated in the annular groove. In addition, can also bury the heater underground on the inner wall of this atomizing chamber at the in-process of processing the main part to after processing, make this heater expose on the inner wall of above-mentioned atomizing chamber. Under the working state, the external power supply supplies power to the heating wire, and the liquid to be atomized can be atomized into gas. It should be understood by those skilled in the art that although the above description has been made with the heating wire as the heating body. This is not exclusive and any material that performs the above function may be substituted. Such as heating tape, heating grids, heating plates, etc.

In some optional implementations of some embodiments, the atomizer assembly may further comprise a base. The base comprises a base body provided with a first groove, a protruding component arranged in the first groove and a second groove formed between the side wall of the first groove and the protruding component, and the heating body is connected to the protruding component in a winding or clamping mode. In an assembled state, the projection member is inserted into the atomization chamber, and a portion of the main body is inserted into the second groove and closely conforms to the second groove. This is explained with reference to fig. 3. Fig. 3 is a schematic structural view of some embodiments of a base body of a nebulizer assembly according to the disclosure. As shown in fig. 3, the base 31 is provided with a first recess 311, and the shape and size of the first recess 311 are matched with the outer surface of the body. Specifically, the first recess 311 can receive a portion of the body 1. Further, with reference to fig. 4 and 5, fig. 4 is a schematic structural view of some embodiments of a base of an atomizer assembly according to the present disclosure. Fig. 5 is a schematic structural diagram of some embodiments of atomizer assemblies according to the present disclosure. As shown in fig. 4, the base 31 further includes a protrusion member 313. The projection member 313 is disposed in the first recess 311 (shown in fig. 3) described above. Meanwhile, a second groove 312 is formed between the sidewall of the first groove and the projection member. Further, as shown in fig. 5, the main body 1 can be inserted into the second groove 312 in an assembled state. The second groove 312 is closely attached to the bottom end of the main body 1 (shown in fig. 6). Further, the projection member 313 is inserted into the above-described atomizing chamber 22. The heating grid will be described as an example. The heating mesh is provided to the above-mentioned protrusion member 313 and is attached to the inner wall of the atomizing chamber 22. In this way, the base 31 can ensure that the liquid to be atomized in the atomizing chamber 22 does not leak, and the sealing performance of the atomizer assembly is improved. In addition, the heating grid is attached to the inner wall of the atomizing cavity 22, so that the liquid to be atomized entering the inner wall of the atomizing cavity through the first hole structure can be quickly contacted with the heating body. Thus, the atomization efficiency of the heating mesh is improved. It should be understood by those skilled in the art that although the above description has been made with a heating grid as the heat generating body. This is not exclusive and any material that performs the above function may be substituted. Such as heating wires, heating bands, heating plates, etc.

In some optional implementations of some embodiments, the atomizer assembly further comprises two conductive pins disposed into the base. The conductive pin is connected with the heating body through a connecting wire, wherein the connecting wire penetrates through the base and extends to the heating body in the direction of the second groove. Specifically, the description is made with reference to fig. 5 and 6. FIG. 6 is a schematic structural view of some embodiments of the connection of the heat generating body and the connecting wire of the atomizer assembly according to the present disclosure. As shown in fig. 5, the atomizer assembly may further include two conductive pins 41. The conductive leads 41 may have various shapes such as a pillar shape and a rectangular parallelepiped shape, but are not limited thereto. The heating grid 5 (as shown in fig. 6) is connected to the conductive pins 41 by connecting wires 411. Further, continued reference is made to FIG. 6. As shown in fig. 6, one end of the connection wire 411 is connected to the conductive pin 41 (shown in fig. 5), which protrudes upward (direction in fig. 5) through the base 31. Until it extends to the heating grid 5. Therefore, during the process of atomizing the liquid to be atomized entering the atomizing chamber 22, the liquid to be atomized is difficult to move out of the atomizing chamber 22 along the connecting conductor. Thus, the problem of leakage of the liquid to be atomized is avoided. It should be noted that although the above description has been made with the heating grid as the heat generating body. This is not exclusive and any material that performs the above function may be substituted. Such as heating tape and plates, etc. Furthermore, the material for manufacturing the conductive pin 41 may be a material with high conductivity coefficient such as copper sheet, copper-zinc alloy, copper-tin alloy, and aluminum alloy.

In some alternative implementations of some embodiments, the cross-section of the nebulizing chamber decreases gradually from bottom to top. Specifically, the inner surface of the atomizing chamber that contacts the heating element may be inclined gradually from the bottom end toward the opposite inner surface. Because under the assembled state, the protruding component is inserted into the atomizing cavity, and the heating body is tightly attached to the inner wall of the atomizing cavity. Thus, the specific shape of the protruding member is matched to the structure of the nebulization chamber. For example, described in conjunction with fig. 5 and 7, fig. 7 is a schematic structural view of some embodiments of atomizer assemblies according to the present disclosure. As shown in fig. 7, the thickness of the atomizing chamber 22 gradually increases from top to bottom, and the inner surface thereof perpendicular to the left side of the paper (the direction in fig. 8) forms an angle with the base 31. Since the heating grid (not shown) is in close contact with the inner wall of the nebulizing chamber 22. Accordingly, the structure of the projection member 313 may be similar to that of the atomization chamber 22 described above. Further, when the protrusion member 313 is inserted into the atomization chamber 22, since the thickness of the atomization chamber 22 is gradually reduced, the protrusion member 313 is easily mounted and limited. For example, a person skilled in the art can adjust the position of the protrusion member 313 inserted into the atomization chamber 22 by changing the thickness of the protrusion member 313. Thus, the structure of the atomizing chamber 22 facilitates the installation of the protrusion 313 and the adjustment of the installation position of the protrusion 313.

Through set up first pore structure and second pore structure in the main part, wherein, first pore structure can absorb and treat that the atomizing liquid enters into the through-hole structure, and this first pore structure has realized the efficiency the same with the oil inlet. The purpose of simplifying the structure is achieved. In addition, the second pore structure is formed by spraying or soaking the first pore structure with a high molecular material, so that the surface of the section where the second pore structure is located can prevent the liquid to be atomized with higher density from entering the through hole structure, and the section where the second pore structure is located can absorb condensate generated when gas is cooled in the flowing process. The condensate is prevented from flowing with the atomizing gas. Thereby improving the quality of the atomizing gas.

In the assembled state, the atomizer assembly 7 is placed in the housing 61 described above. The housing 6 and the atomizer assembly 7 can form a storage chamber structure 9, which storage chamber structure 9 serves to store the liquid to be atomized. Further, the housing cover 62 may be provided with a passage 621, the passage 621 penetrating the housing cover 62. The passage 621 communicates with the air passage 21 of the atomizer assembly 7. In this way, the atomized gas can move in the air passage 21 and the passage 621, and then be inhaled by the user. Further, as shown in fig. 4, a fixing plate 314 may be fixedly disposed at the bottom of the base 31, and the size of the fixing plate 314 is larger than that of the base 31. In the assembled state, the fixing plate 314 is attached to the bottom of the housing 61. Thus, the fixing plate 314 serves as a bottom plate of the housing 6, and a bottom end of the housing 6 is sealed. The sealing performance of the electronic cigarette is further improved, and the situation that liquid in the storage cavity structure 9 leaks is avoided.
