Further, in one embodiment, the guiding portion 112 is provided with different apertures inside to form a guiding channel, and the liquid absorbing surface 119 delivers the atomizing medium to the atomizing portion 111 or the connecting section 114 through the guiding channel, so as to facilitate accurate and uniform delivery of the atomizing medium to the atomizing portion 111 and the heating element 120 therein, thereby obtaining a uniform aerosol.
