The aperture of the opening 61h is adjusted so that the liquid does not easily leak to the lower surface 61s2 via the upper surface 61s 1. The arrangement of the openings 61h is adjusted so that the liquid does not easily leak to the lower surface 61s2 via the upper surface 61s 1. The distance between the plurality of openings 61h is adjusted so that the liquid is not easily leaked to the lower surface 61s2 through the upper surface 61s 1.

In certain embodiments, the opening 61h may have a pore size of 0.1mm (millimeters). In certain embodiments, the opening 61h may have a 0.2mm aperture size. In certain embodiments, the opening 61h may have a 0.3mm aperture size. In certain embodiments, the opening 61h may have a 0.35mm aperture size. In certain embodiments, the opening 61h may have a 0.4mm aperture size. In certain embodiments, the opening 61h may have a 0.5mm aperture size.

The grid frame 6 can be placed in the opening 71h1 of the heating assembly lower cover 7. The grill 6 is disposed between the heating assembly 5 and the aerosol-generating assembly base 9. The grill 6 is disposed between the heating assembly 5 and the opening 9h1 of the aerosol-generating assembly base 9. In one embodiment, opening 71h1 has a length and width relative to length 61L and width 61W of grid framework 6. The length of the opening 71h1 is slightly less than the length 61L of the grill frame 6. The width of the opening 71h1 is slightly smaller than the width 61W of the grill frame 6. Therefore, when the grid frame 6 is fitted into the opening 71h1, since the grid frame 6 and the heating assembly lower cover 71 can be engaged with each other in a tight-fitting manner, there is no need to use an additional assembly fixing.

When the grid stand 6 is seated in the heating assembly lower cover 71, the upper surface 61s1 of the grid stand 6 is not coplanar with the surface 71 s. In one embodiment, the upper surface 61s1 of the grill frame 6 is also adjacent to the heating element 5 as compared to the surface 71s of the heating element lower cover 71. When the grid stand 6 is seated in the heating assembly lower cover 71, the lower surface 61s2 of the grid stand 6 is not coplanar with the surface 71 s. When the grill 6 is placed on the heating unit lower cover 7, the openings 61h of the grill 6 allow the airflow to pass therethrough.

The aerosol-generating component base 9 may comprise upstanding walls 9w1 and 9w 2. Upstanding walls 9w1 and 9w2 are provided on either side of the aerosol-generating assembly base 9. The upright walls 9w1 and 9w2 may have a plurality of grooves therein. The upright walls 9w1 and 9w2 may have a plurality of grooves extending along the horizontal direction (x-axis and z-axis directions as shown in fig. 2A and 2B). The upright walls 9w1 and 9w2 may have a plurality of grooves extending in a vertical direction (y-axis direction as shown in fig. 2A and 2B).

The plurality of grooves on the upright wall 9w1 may assume the same configuration as the plurality of grooves on the upright wall 9w 2. In certain embodiments, the plurality of grooves on the upright wall 9w1 can assume a different configuration than the plurality of grooves on the upright wall 9w 2.

As shown in fig. 2A, the upright wall 9w2 may include slots 9vr1, 9vr2, 9vr3, 9vr4, 9vr5, 9vr6, and 9vr 7. The grooves 9vr1, 9vr2, 9vr3, 9vr4, 9vr5, 9vr6, and 9vr7 extend in the vertical direction. Upright wall 9w2 may include slots 9hr1, 9hr2, 9hr3, 9hr4, 9hr5, 9hr6, and 9hr 7. The slots 9hr1, 9hr2, 9hr3, 9hr4, 9hr5, 9hr6, and 9hr7 extend in the horizontal direction.

Slots 9hr1, 9hr2, 9hr3, 9hr4, 9hr5, 9hr6, and 9hr7 may have different lengths. In some embodiments, slots 9hr1, 9hr4, and 9hr5 may have the same length. In some embodiments, slots 9hr2, 9hr3, and 9hr6 may have the same length. In certain embodiments, slots 9hr1, 9hr4, and 9hr5 are different lengths than slots 9hr2, 9hr3, and 9hr 6. In certain embodiments, the lengths of slots 9hr1, 9hr4, and 9hr5 are greater than the lengths of slots 9hr2, 9hr3, and 9hr 6. In certain embodiments, the length of slot 9hr7 is greater than the length of slots 9hr1, 9hr2, 9hr3, 9hr4, 9hr5, and 9hr 6.

The lengths of slots 9vr1, 9vr2, 9vr3, 9vr4, 9vr5, 9vr6, and 9vr7 may be different from the lengths of slots 9hr1, 9hr2, 9hr3, 9hr4, 9hr5, 9hr6, and 9hr 7. In certain embodiments, the length of 9hr2 is different from the length of 9vr 2.

The slot 9vr1 and the slot 9hr7 may communicate via a plurality of slots disposed therebetween. Liquid can pass from tank 9vr1 to tank 9hr 7. Liquid can pass from tank 9hr7 to tank 9vr 1. Gas may pass from tank 9hr7 to tank 9vr 1. Slots 9hr1 and 9hr2 may communicate via slot 9vr 2. Slots 9hr2 and 9hr3 may communicate via slot 9vr 3. Slots 9hr3 and 9hr4 may communicate via slot 9vr 4. Slots 9hr4 and 9hr5 may communicate via slot 9vr 5. Slots 9hr5 and 9hr6 may communicate via slot 9vr 6. Slots 9hr6 and 9hr7 may communicate via slot 9vr 7.

The aerosol-generating assembly base 9 may comprise a recess 9r 2. When the atomization device is used for a long time, a small amount of liquid still passes through the opening 61h on the grid frame 6, and the groove 9r2 can contain the liquid, so that the probability of the liquid leaking to the outside of the aerosol generating assembly 100A is reduced. A wicking assembly 90 can be disposed within recess 9r 2. When a small amount of liquid still passes through the opening 61h of the grid frame 6 during the long-term use of the atomizing device, the liquid absorption component 90 arranged in the groove 9r2 can absorb the liquid, thereby reducing the probability of the liquid leaking to the outside of the aerosol generating component 100A. The material of the absorbent assembly 90 can comprise an oil absorbent sponge. The wicking assembly 90 can include an aperture 90h and a recess 90 c. The holes 90h of the wicking assembly 90 can expose the openings 9h1 and 9h2 of the aerosol-generating assembly chassis 9. The concave portion 90c of the wicking assembly 90 is configured to avoid the conductive structures 9p1 and 9p2 and the openings 9h3 and 9h4 of the aerosol generating assembly base 9.

FIG. 3 illustrates a partial cross-sectional view of the atomizing device along line 1-1 in FIG. 1A.

The heating unit 5 and the heating unit lower cover 71 define an atomization chamber 7c therebetween. The aerosol generated by the heating element 5 after heating the tobacco tar is first generated in the atomizing chamber 7c and then enters the tube 1t through the groove 3pg and the cavity 3c (see fig. 2A and 2B) of the heating element upper cover 3.

As shown in fig. 3, the conductive pin 5p1 of the heating element 5 is in direct contact with the conductive structure 9p 1. The conductive pin 5p2 of the heating element 5 is in direct contact with the conductive structure 9p 2. Conductive pin 5p2 is in direct contact with conductive structure 9p2 via segment 5b 1. The conductive pin 5p1 directly contacts the conductive structure 9p1 in the same manner.

The grill 6 is disposed between the heating assembly lower cover 71 and the aerosol-generating assembly base 9. The grill 6 is secured between the heating assembly lower cover 71 and the aerosol-generating assembly base 9. The grill 6 may be in direct contact with the heating assembly lower cover 71 and the aerosol-generating assembly base 9. The grid frame 6 is disposed in the opening 71h1 of the heating assembly lower cover 7. By the structural design of the heating element lower cover 7 and the aerosol-generating element base 9, the grid frame 6 can be fixed between the heating element lower cover 71 and the aerosol-generating element base 9 without additional components. The structural design of the heating assembly lower cover 7, the grid frame 6 and the aerosol-generating assembly base 9 reduces the difficulty of assembly of the aerosol-generating assembly 100A. The structural design of the heating assembly lower cover 7, the grill 6 and the aerosol-generating assembly base 9 reduces the number of components within the aerosol-generating assembly 100A.

The grid frame 6 is disposed between the conductive pins 5p1 and 5p2 of the heating element 5. The grill 6 is disposed over the openings 9h1 and 9h2 of the aerosol-generating assembly base 9. The opening 9h1 extends in the direction of the axis 9x 1. The opening 9h2 extends in the direction of the axis 9x 2. The opening 9h1 extends in the direction passing through the grid frame 6. The opening 9h2 extends in the direction passing through the grid frame 6.

When the aerosol generated by the heating assembly 5 is not completely ingested by the user, it may condense into a liquid in the aerosolizing chamber 7 c. Without the provision of the grill 6, liquid within the nebulizing chamber 7c may leak out of the aerosol-generating assembly 100A via the opening 9h1 or 9h2 of the aerosol-generating assembly base 9. The leaked liquid may cause damage to electronic components within the main body 100B. The leaked liquid may also contaminate other valuables of the user during carrying of the aerosolization device 100, resulting in a poor user experience.

The grill 6 effectively reduces the chance of condensed liquid within the atomising chamber 7c leaking out of the opening 9h1 or 9h2 of the aerosol-generating assembly base 9. The grill 6 effectively prevents condensed liquid in the aerosolizing chamber 7c from leaking out of the opening 9h1 or 9h2 of the aerosol-generating assembly base 9. The grill 6 reduces leakage of the condensed liquid that could cause malfunction of the atomizing device 100. The grill 6 can increase the life of the atomizing device 100.

As demonstrated in figure 3, when aerosol-generating assembly 100A is used to draw gas into aerosol-generating assembly 100A from openings 9h1,9h2 in aerosol-generating assembly base 9, the gas passes sequentially through recess 90c of wicking assembly 90 and grid 6 into aerosolization chamber 7c between heater assembly 5 and heater assembly lower cover 7. The tobacco tar stored in the storage compartment 30 can reach the groove 5c at the top of the heating element 5 through the openings 3h2 and 3h 3. The tobacco tar in the heating assembly 5 is heated to generate aerosol, and the aerosol is mixed with the gas and then flows to the opening 3h1 of the upper cover 3 through the groove 3pg and the cavity 3c in fig. 2A and 2B. Finally, the aerosol flows out through the pipe 1t and the opening 1h to be provided for the user to suck.

In certain embodiments, the body 100B may supply power to the aerosol-generating assembly 100A. The body 100B may supply power to the aerosol-generating assembly 100A. Gas may be provided into the aerosol-generating assembly 100A.

As illustrated in fig. 4, in some embodiments, the body 100B includes a sealing assembly 10, a conductive element 11, a magnetic element 12, a sensor 13, a light guide frame 14, a main circuit board 15, a sealing collar 16, a vibrator 17, a power supply element 20, a bracket 21, and a housing 22. The aerosol-generating assembly 100A is configured to mate with the housing 22 and is disposed on the stand 21.

The housing 22 has an opening 22h and a cavity. The cavity communicates with the opening 22 h. The holder 21 is disposed in the cavity of the housing 22 via the opening 22h of the housing 22. The material of the housing 22 may be metal to improve the strength of the atomization device 100. For example, the material of the housing 22 may be aluminum to reduce the overall weight. The side wall of the housing 22 has a first through hole 22 a. In addition, the cavity inside the housing 22 has a receiving portion 22 s. The receiving portion 22s is for receiving at least a portion of the aerosol-generating assembly 100A within the housing 22 through the opening 22 h. In the present embodiment, the receiving portion 22s is a portion of the cavity inside the housing 22 near the opening 22 h.

The bracket 21 is disposed within the housing 22. The bracket 21 has a first end 211 (or top) and a second end 212 (or bottom) opposite to each other. At the first end 211, the support 21 has conductive grooves 21c1 and 21c2 and a concave portion 21 g. The recess 21g is formed between the conductive grooves 21c1 and 21c 2. The recess 21g faces the opening 22h of the housing 22. The conductive slots 21c1 and 21c2 are provided in the aerosol-generating assembly base 9 at conductive structures 9p1 and 9p2, respectively (as demonstrated in figure 3). The conductive elements 11 are respectively disposed in the conductive grooves 21c1 and 21c 2. When the aerosol-generating assembly 100A is disposed on the first end 211 of the stand 21, the conductive element 11 may be electrically coupled to the conductive structures 9p1 and 9p2 of the aerosol-generating assembly base 9. The side of the bracket 21 has fasteners 215, and the fasteners 215 may be secured to opposing slots in the housing 22 to secure the bracket 21 to the housing 22.

The magnetic component 12 is arranged around the conductive component 11. The magnetic component 12 may be magnetic. When the magnetic assembly 12 approaches the conductive structures 9p1 and 9p2 of the aerosol-generating assembly base 9 (as demonstrated in figure 3), the magnetic assembly 12 attracts the conductive structures 9p1 and 9p2 to magnetically engage each other in a detachable manner.

The holder 21 has a receiving hole 213. The sensor 13 may be disposed in the accommodation hole 213. One side of the sensor 13 is fixed to the circuit board 15. The other side of the sensor 13 is disposed on the accommodation hole 213 of the bracket 21. The sensor 13 may sense an air flow generated when a user inhales, a change in air pressure (air pressure difference) on opposite sides, or a sound wave.

The circuit board 15 is disposed between the holder 21 and the light guide frame 14. The main circuit board 15 includes a controller 15e thereon. The controller 15e may be a microprocessor. The controller 15e may be a programmable integrated circuit. The controller 15e may be a programmable logic circuit. In some embodiments, the arithmetic logic within the controller 15e cannot be changed after the controller is manufactured. In some embodiments, the computational logic within the controller 15e may be programmed after the controller 15e is manufactured.

The circuit board 15 may also include a memory (not shown). In some embodiments, the memory may be integrated within the controller. In some embodiments, the memory may be provided separately from the controller 15 e.

The controller 15e may be electrically connected to the sensor 13. The controller 15e may be electrically connected to the conductive member 11. The controller 15e may be electrically connected to the power supply assembly 20. When the sensor 13 detects an airflow, the controller 15e may control the power supply assembly 20 to output power to the conductive assembly 11. When the sensor 13 detects a change in air pressure, the controller 15e may control the power supply assembly 20 to output power to the conductive assembly 11. When the sensor 13 detects a negative pressure, the controller 15e can control the power supply assembly 20 to output power to the conductive assembly 11. When the controller 15e determines that the air pressure detected by the sensor 13 is lower than a threshold value, the controller 15e may control the power supply assembly 20 to output power to the conductive assembly 11. When the sensor 13 detects a sound wave, the controller 15e may control the power supply 20 to output power to the conductive element 11. When the controller 15e determines that the sensor 13 detects that the amplitude of the sound wave is above a threshold, the controller 15e may control the power supply 20 to output power to the conductive element 11.

The vibrator 17 may be electrically connected to the controller 15 e. In some embodiments, vibrator 17 is electrically connected to controller 15e on circuit board 15 via a cable.

The controller 15e can control the vibrator 17 to generate different body sensing effects according to different operation states of the atomizing device 100. In some embodiments, the controller 15e may control the vibrator 17 to generate a vibration to alert the user to stop inhaling when the user inhales for more than a certain length of time. In some embodiments, when the user charges the aerosolization device 100, the controller 15e may control the vibrator 17 to vibrate to indicate that charging has begun. In some embodiments, when charging of the aerosolization device 100 has been completed, the controller 15e may control the vibrator 17 to generate a vibration to indicate that charging has been completed.

The light guide frame 14 is mounted on the main circuit board 15. The main circuit board 15 may also include one or more light emitting elements 15e, the light emitted by which is visible (visible) through the light guide frame 14. In some embodiments, the light guide frame 14 includes a light guide 14a corresponding to the light transmissive element 221 of the housing 22. The light emitted from the light emitting element can be visible through the light guide 14a of the light guide frame 14 and the light transmission element 221.

The power supply assembly 20 may be disposed within the cradle 21. In some embodiments, power supply component 20 may be a battery. In some embodiments, power supply component 20 may be a rechargeable battery. In some embodiments, power supply component 20 may be a disposable battery.

The main body 100B may also contain a charging assembly 18. The charging assembly 18 is disposed at the bottom of the housing 22. The charging assembly 18 may be electrically connected to the port 25. The power supply component 20 may be charged via the charging component 18.

The stent 21 has an airway 21s located inside thereof. In some embodiments, the first end 211 of the support 21 has an airway 21s located within it. The frame 21 is configured such that the external air of the atomizing device 100 flows into the air passage 21s of the frame 21 via the side 21e of the frame 21. The outside air then flows into the mist generation assembly 100A through the air passage 21 s. In some embodiments, the air passage 21s has a through hole 21h and a recess 21g communicating with each other. The diameter of the through hole 21h may be smaller than the length, width and/or height of the recess 21 g. The recess 21g has a second through hole 21a, and the second through hole 21a faces the gas mist generating module 100A. That is, the opposite ends of the air passage 21s may be the through hole 21h and the second through hole 21a

In certain embodiments, the body 100B may also contain a sealing kit 10. The seal assembly 10 is disposed in the recess 21g of the holder 21. The shape of the seal member 10 may correspond to the shape of the recess 21g so that the seal member 10 can be fittingly fixed to the recess 21g and closely fit the gap between the seal member 10 and the recess 21 g.

In some embodiments, seal assembly 10 has a first corresponding aperture 10h1, a second corresponding aperture 10h2, and a diversion lumen 10 c. The first corresponding holes 10h1 communicate with the through holes 21h of the air duct 21s and correspond to each other. The second corresponding holes 10h2 are in fluid communication with the second through hole 21a of the recess 21g and correspond to each other. Diversion cavity 10c is in fluid communication with first corresponding hole 10h1 and second corresponding hole 10h2, respectively. The baffle cavity 10c of the sealing kit 10 may temporarily store tobacco tar leaking from the aerosol-generating assembly 100A; the baffle cavity 10c of the sealing kit 10 may temporarily store condensate that leaks from the aerosol-generating assembly 100A. Seal boot 10c of sleeve 10 may reduce the chance of smoke or condensate coming into contact with the electronic components within body 100B. The baffling chamber 10c of the seal kit 10 may reduce the chance of electronic components within the body 100B failing due to soot or condensate.

The sealing kit 10 may further have a third corresponding aperture 10h 3. The bracket 21 has a post 21p, the post 21p extending from the main structure of the recess 21g towards the second corresponding hole 10h 2. At least a portion of the receiving channel 21d may be formed in the cylinder 21 p. The shape of the third corresponding hole 10h3 may correspond to the cylindrical shape of the cylinder 21 p. When the seal assembly 10 is disposed in the recess 21g, the third corresponding hole 10h3 corresponds to the cylinder 21p, and the third corresponding hole 10h3 may be in fluid communication with the receiving channel 21 d. In some embodiments, the height of post 21p is greater than the bottom of recess 21g (or diversion cavity 10c), and the top of post 21p and the bottom of recess 21g are not coplanar with each other. That is, the distance from the top end of the cylinder 21p to the second corresponding hole 10h2 is greater than the distance from the bottom of the recess 21g (or the diversion cavity 10c) to the second corresponding hole 10h2, so that the tobacco tar leaked from the aerosol generating assembly 100A can be prevented from flowing into the receiving channel 21d of the cylinder 21 p. Such a configuration may reduce the chance of electronic components (e.g., sensor 13) within body 100B failing due to smoke or condensation.

Figure 5C illustrates perspective views from different perspectives of a sealing kit of tobacco rods according to some embodiments of the present disclosure. The sealing kit 10 may further have a fixture 10 p. The fixing member 10p may be a long column. The fixture 10p may further position the sealing sleeve 10 on the bracket 21 through a fixture hole 21i at the bottom of the recess 21g (as demonstrated in fig. 5B). The anchor 10p may have a tapered flange 10n located at the middle of the anchor 10p and extending radially. The diameter of the flange 10n may taper outwardly. When the fixing member 10p is inserted through and disposed in the fixing hole 21i, the tapered flange 10n of the fixing member 10p and the bottom surface 21k below the fixing hole 21i can be tightly engaged with each other (as illustrated in fig. 3) to improve the stability of the sealing sleeve 10 fixed on the bracket 21. In some embodiments, the number of the fixing members 10p and the fixing holes 21i is two.

As illustrated in fig. 5B, the sealing sleeve 10 may further have an extension 10 r. The extension 10r extends laterally from the top edge of the seal set 10. The extension 10r may fit the edge of the second through hole 21a of the recess 21g to avoid creating a gap between the sealing sleeve 10 and the recess 21 g.

In certain embodiments, the sealing kit 10 may be resilient. In some embodiments, the sealing sleeve 10 may be flexible. In certain embodiments, the sealing kit 10 may comprise silicone. In certain embodiments, the sealing sleeve 10 may be made of silicone. Can provide sealing and cushioning functions.

In certain embodiments, the seal kit 10 may further have a projection 10b, the projection 10b extending upwardly from a top edge of the seal kit 10.

FIG. 6 illustrates a partial cross-sectional view of the atomizing device along line 6-6 in FIG. 1A.

As demonstrated in fig. 6, the overall height H of the sealing sleeve 10 is greater than or equal to the depth D of the recess 21 g. When the aerosol-generating assembly 100A is disposed on the main body 100B, the sealing sleeve 10 nests (bears) directly against the bottom of the aerosol-generating assembly base 9. Thus, the sealing kit 10 may form a closed channel between the holder 21 of the aerosol-generating assembly 100A and the aerosol-generating assembly base 9 of the body 100B. The closed passage is spaced apart from a cavity 22s formed by an inner wall surface 22w within the housing 22.

The receiving channel 21d in the bracket 21 may receive the sensor 13. That is, the sensor 13 may be in fluid communication with the diversion chamber 10c of the seal pack 10 within the recess 21g of the bracket 21 through the receiving channel 21 d. The sensor 13 can measure the pressure difference between the diversion cavity 10c of the sealing assembly 10 and the main plate 15 adjacent to the bracket 21 or other physical properties (such as sound wave, air flow rate, air pressure variation).

As demonstrated by fig. 7, the first through hole 22a of the housing 22 is configured to allow the external air of the atomizing device 100 to be in fluid communication with the through hole 21h on the side 21e of the holder 21 via the first through hole 22 a. That is, the first through hole 22a is in fluid communication with the air passage 21s in the interior of the bracket 21. In the present embodiment, the first through hole 22a of the housing 22 is located at a side of the housing 22 (narrower side of the housing 22), and the through hole 21h of the bracket 21 corresponds to a front surface of the housing 22 (wider surface of the housing 22). In the embodiment, the first through hole 22a of the housing 22 and the through hole 21h of the bracket 21 are substantially located on the same horizontal plane, the first through hole 22a of the housing 22 and the through hole 21h of the bracket 21 are spaced from each other by a distance, as shown in fig. 7, the airflow channel is substantially horizontal, and the first through hole 22a of the housing 22 and the through hole 21h of the bracket 21 are in fluid communication with each other through the airflow channel.

The outer side of the bracket 21 further includes ribs 21v1 and 21v 2. The ribs 21v1 and 21v2 are adjacent to the through hole 21h of the bracket 21 and the first through hole 22a of the housing 22. The ribs 21v1 and 21v2 extend outward from the main structure of the bracket 21 toward the inner wall surface 22w abutting against the housing 22. In some embodiments, ribs 21v1 and 21v 2360 extend outward. In more detail, the ribs 21v1 and 21v2 are spaced apart from each other to be respectively located at upper and lower sides of the through hole 21h of the bracket 21 and the first through hole 22a of the housing 22, thereby forming independent air flow passages. Therefore, the first through hole 22a of the housing 22 and the through hole 21h of the bracket 21 can be in fluid communication through the airflow channel formed by the ribs 21v1 and 21v 2. In the present embodiment, the airflow passage formed between the first through hole 22a of the housing 22 and the through hole 21h of the bracket 21 may surround a quarter of the circumference of the bracket 21. Further, the air flow may enter the through hole 21h of the bracket 21 from the other opposite direction (counterclockwise direction in fig. 7) around the other three quarters of the circumference of the bracket 21 after entering from the first through hole 22a of the housing 22.

The sealing collar 16 may be fitted around the outside of the bracket 21 and below the rib 21v 2. The outer edge of the sealing collar 16 may abut against the inner wall surface 22w of the housing 22. The sealing collar 16 may be used to close the gap between the bracket 21 and the housing 22 to prevent air flow communication between the upper and lower sides of the sealing collar 16.

In some embodiments (not shown), the ribs 21v1 and 21v2 may abut against the inner wall 22w of the housing 22.

In some embodiments, the housing 22 may have a plurality of first through holes 22 a. For example, in some embodiments, the housing 22 may have, for example, 2 first through holes 22a (e.g., as shown in fig. 3) respectively located at two opposite sides of the housing 22 (the narrower side of the housing 22), and the 2 first through holes 22a may correspond to only one through hole 21h of the bracket 21. In some embodiments, not illustrated in the drawings, the through hole 21h of the bracket 21 may directly correspond to the side of the housing 22 (the narrower side of the housing 22), so that the first through hole 22a at the side of the housing 22 directly faces the through hole 21h of the bracket 21. In some embodiments, the housing 22 may have only one first through hole 22 a.

The first through-hole 22a of the housing 22 is located at substantially the same level as the through-hole 21h of the bracket 21. The horizontal plane may be formed by the x-axis and z-axis illustrated in fig. 6 and 7. When the first through-holes 22a of the housing 22 are positioned at substantially the same level as the through-holes 21h of the bracket 21, it is possible to effectively control and increase the flow rate of the air flow into the main body 100B and to increase the speed of the air flow into the bracket 21.

Referring to fig. 6 and 7, when the aerosol-generating assembly 100A is combined with the main body 100B, the user inhales the opening 1h, which causes an airflow pulling force to be generated inside the aerosol-generating assembly 100A and to the main body 100B. When the air flow F enters the interior of the housing 22 from the first through hole 22a of the housing 22 by the above-mentioned pulling force, the air flow F can then flow to the through hole 21h of the bracket 21 through the passage formed by the ribs 21v1 and 21v 2. The air flow F then enters the sealing sleeve 10 in the recess 21g through the through hole 21h of the holder 21 and the first corresponding hole 10h1 of the sealing sleeve 10. Thereafter, the airflow F enters the aerosol-generating assembly 100A accommodated in the cavity (or receiving portion) 22s of the main body 100B from the second corresponding hole 10h2 of the seal kit 10. In further detail, as demonstrated in figure 3, the airflow F is through the second corresponding hole 10h2 of the sealing sleeve 10 into the openings 9h1 and 9h2 of the aerosol-generating assembly base 9 of the aerosol-generating assembly 100A within the cavity 22 s. Meanwhile, when the user inhales, the additional air flow F2 can be detected by the sensor 13 through the receiving channel 21d of the recess 21g and the sealing sleeve 10. When the sensor 13 detects a certain physical property, the sensor 13 sends a signal to the controller 15e, and then the controller 15e starts the current supply to the heating element 5. Therefore, the airflows F and F2 demonstrated in fig. 7 can be collected in the recess 21g of the holder 21, and the stable flow of the airflows F and F2 as a whole can be effectively controlled.

Referring back to fig. 6 and 7, according to the above description of the embodiments, the aerosol-generating assembly 100A is configured to be fitted with the housing 22 and disposed on the bracket 21, and the aerosol-generating assembly 100A is in fluid communication with the first through hole 22a on the side wall of the housing 22 through the air passage 21s of the bracket 21. Further, in some embodiments, after the air flow F enters the housing 22 from the first through hole 22a on the side of the housing 22, the air flow F passes through the recess 21g in the bracket 21 of the main body 100B via the independent air flow channel. Subsequently, the airflow F passes through the recess 21g in the holder 21 and enters the gas mist generating module 100A. Because the airflow F enters the aerosol-generating assembly 100A after entering the structure in the main body 100B, the airflow channel design can effectively control the flow direction and flow rate of the airflow, and further improve the stability of the operation of the atomizing device 100 and the user experience.

In fig. 7, the traveling path of the air flow is explained with the first through hole 22a of only one side. While the first through-hole 22a, which is not illustrated on the other side, is similar to its air flow path, and the air flow can enter the holder 21 from another object through the same penetration hole 21 h. And therefore, explanation will not be repeated.

In the embodiment illustrated in fig. 8, the first through hole 22a1 of the housing 22 is located on the front side of the housing 22 (the more spacious side of the housing 22). Therefore, the first through hole 22a1 of the housing 22 directly faces the through hole 21h of the bracket 21. The structural design of the first through hole 22a1 directly facing the through hole 21h can make the airflow enter the concave portion 21g in the bracket 21 of the main body 100B more quickly, shorten the flowing distance of the airflow, and improve the flow speed of the airflow.

In the embodiment illustrated in fig. 9, the recess 21g of the support 21 is not provided with a sealing sleeve like the previous embodiments. Thus, the recess 21g may face the gas mist-generating assembly base 9 of the gas mist-generating assembly 100A. The recess 21g of the holder 21 may directly contact the aerosol-generating assembly base 9 of the aerosol-generating assembly 100A (in other words, the aerosol-generating assembly base is disposed directly on the recess 21g of the holder 21) to form a closed channel between the holder 21 and the aerosol-generating assembly base 9. The enclosed channel may be isolated from the space within the housing 22. Still further, the airflow may enter directly into the aerosol-generating assembly base 9 from the recess 21g of the holder 21. When the smoke or condensate within the aerosol-generating assembly 100A leaks into the interior of the main body 100B along the opening of the aerosol-generating assembly base 9, the recess 21g can temporarily contain the liquid, avoiding the liquid from contacting the sensor 13 through the receiving channel 21d of the bracket 21. When the smoke or condensate within the aerosol-generating component 100A leaks into the interior of the main body 100B along the opening of the aerosol-generating component base 9, the recess 21g can temporarily hold the liquid, avoiding the liquid from contacting other electronic components inside the main body 100B.
